Only common shares give voting rights.
Every common share gives the right to one vote. Preferred shares do not have voting rights.

ΙΙ. Procedure for the exercise of voting rights through proxies

Shareholders, holders of common shares, who are eligible to attend the General Meeting may vote either in person or through a proxy. Each Shareholder may appoint up to three (3) proxies. Legal entities may participate in the General Meeting by appointing up to three (3) natural persons as their representatives.

Forms for the appointment of proxies are available on the Company’s website www.titancement.com and at the Company’s Head offices, at 22A Halkidos Street, Athens (Shareholder Services Department). The forms of proxy, completed and signed, should be submitted to the Company’s Head offices, 22A Halkidos Street, Athens

(Shareholder Services Department) at least three (3) days prior to the date of the Annual General Meeting, i.e. by Tuesday, 17th June 2014 and in the event that the A’ Repeat General Meeting takes place by 1st July 2014 at the latest.

A proxy who acts for more than one Shareholders may vote differently for each Shareholder. If a Shareholder holds shares, which appear in more than one securities account, the Shareholder may appoint different proxies for the shares which appear in each securities account.

Shareholders may appoint a proxy for one General Meeting or for all Meetings that will take place within a certain time period.

The proxy will vote in accordance with the Shareholder’s instructions, if any, and is required to retain the voting instructions for at least one (1) year from the submission of the minutes of the General Meeting to the competent authority or, if the decision shall be published, from its registration with the Companies Registry.

The proxy is obliged to disclose to the Company before the commencement of the General Meeting any specific fact, which would be useful to Shareholders in order to determine whether there is a risk of the proxy serving interests other than the Shareholder’s interests. Conflict of interest may arise in particular in cases where the proxy: a) is a controlling Shareholder of the Company or is another legal person or entity controlled by such Shareholder; b) is a member of the Board of Directors or in general of the management team of the Company or of a Shareholder controlling the Company, or of another legal person or entity controlled by a Shareholder controlling the Company; c) is an employee or certified public accountant of the Company or of a Shareholder controlling the Company, or of another legal person or entity controlled by a Shareholder controlling the Company; d) is the spouse or a relative to the first degree of one of the natural persons referred to in the cases a to c above.
