The same construction applies to any reference made hereinafter to the “shareholders” or a “shareholder” of the Company.

Each share entitles the holder thereof to one vote.

Right to Participate and Vote in the General Meetings

The rights of a shareholder to participate in the General Meetings and to vote shall be determined with respect to the shares held by that shareholder on 13 May 2025 at 24.00 (midnight) CEST (the "Record Date"). Any transferee having become owner of any shares after the Record Date has no right to vote at the General Meetings.

Shareholders wishing to participate in the General Meetings without attending in person, shall provide a proxy or voting form (in accordance with sections “Voting Forms” and “Representation”).

Registration for the General Meetings

The Management Board considers that shareholders who provide proof of their shareholding on the Record Date and submit their voting form or provide a proxy as set forth in the below section “Representation”, do not have to undertake other formalities to comply with the obligation set out in Article 5 (3) of the Luxembourg Shareholders’ Rights Law.

Proof of shareholding being a prerequisite for a shareholder to participate and vote in the General Meetings, shareholders whose shares are held in book-entry form through the operator of a securities settlement system or with a professional depositary or sub-depositary designated by such depositary must submit proof certifying the number of shares held on the Record Date (the “Certificate of Holdings”) to the Centralizing Agent in the period from 13 May 2025 at 24.00 (midnight) CEST until 22 May 2025 at 18.00 CEST.

The intention of a shareholder or proxyholder to participate in person in the General Meetings (the “In-Person Attendance Declaration”) shall be notified by such shareholder or proxyholder to the Centralizing Agent in writing by mail or by e-mail no later than on 22 May 2025 at 18.00 CEST. A form for the In-Person Attendance Declaration is provided on the Company’s website (http://ir.hometogo.de/agm), which may be used.

Shareholders who do not wish to participate in person in the General Meetings or appoint a proxy may cast their votes by sending a voting form to the Centralizing Agent by mail, e-mail or in any other form, and in particular by any other electronic means made available by the Company no later than on 22 May 2025 at 18.00 CEST (for further requirements see above sections “Registration for the General Meetings” and “Right to Participate in the General Meeting” for requirements to participate in the General Meetings). Voting forms provided by the Company on its website (http://ir.hometogo.de/agm) may be used and if used, only signed voting forms will be taken into account (including for the avoidance of doubt, signed pursuant to a valid, legal and binding power of attorney and/or signed electronically).

Shareholders having submitted a voting form and who wish to revoke such voting form may do so by timely providing a later dated voting or proxy form or cancelling the voting form in writing to the Centralizing Agent of the Company at the address referred to above. Only the last voting or proxy form received by the Centralizing Agent before 22 May 2025 at 18.00 CEST will be considered.

Representation

In the event that any shareholder appoints another person as proxy to vote on their behalf, the completed and executed proxy form must be submitted by mail, e-mail or in any other form, and in particular by any other electronic means made available by the Company, to the Centralizing Agent of the Company no later than on 22 May 2025 at 18.00 CEST (for further requirements see above sections “Registration for the General Meetings” and “Right to Participate in the General Meetings” for requirements to participate in the General Meetings).

Proxy forms provided on the website of the Company (http://ir.hometogo.de/agm) may be used and if used, only signed proxy forms will be taken into account (including for the avoidance of doubt, signed pursuant to a valid, legal and binding power of attorney and/or signed electronically). One person may represent more than one shareholder.

Shareholders having submitted a proxy form but who wish to revoke such proxy form may do so by timely providing a later dated proxy or voting form or by cancelling the proxy form in writing to the Centralizing Agent of the Company at the address referred to above.

If the Company and/or the Centralizing Agent receives more than one different voting document from a shareholder, only the last voting or proxy form received by the Centralizing Agent and/or the Company before 22 May 2025 at 18.00 CEST will be considered. Any voting document provided will be disregarded should the shareholder attend the General Meetings in person and collect a voting card.

If, pursuant to a signed proxy form as described above, shareholders appoint a person other than the person appointed by the Company as their proxyholder, please note that the proxyholder will need to provide a new voting form in accordance with section “Voting Forms” in the name and on behalf of the shareholder.

Shareholder Questions

Shareholders, the proxyholder appointed by the Company and proxyholders of shareholders (in case such shareholders appointed individual proxyholders) that have correctly submitted their proof of shareholding (see above sections “Registration for the General Meetings” and “Right to Participate in the General Meetings”) and carry proof of identity at the General Meetings, shall have the opportunity to ask questions to the Company at the General Meetings.

The questions will be answered at the reasonable discretion of the Company and the Company is not required to answer all questions. In particular, questions may be summarised, combined or separated. Reasonable questions may be selected in the interest of the other shareholders, and questions from shareholders’ associations and institutional investors with significant voting interests may be given preference.
