Proposals and recommendations to the AGM

Proposals and recommendations to the AGM

FMO's Supervisory Board endorses the Report of the Management Board. We propose that the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders (AGM) adopt the 2010 annual accounts audited by KPMG Accountants N.V.

In accordance with Article 6(2) of the Agreement State-FMO of November 16, 1998, we propose that the AGM approve the allocation of €119.9 million (2009: €57.1 million) to the contractual reserve. The remaining amount of €6.2 million (2009: €3.0 million) is the distributable component of profits. We recommend that the AGM adopt the Management Board's proposal to pay a cash dividend of €4.66 (2009: €3.81) per share and allocate the remaining €4.3 million to other reserves. We propose that the AGM reappoint KPMG Accountants N.V. as external auditors. We trust the AGM will also discharge the Management Board for its management of FMO and the Supervisory Board for its supervision during the reporting year.

According to plan, Willy Angenent will retire immediately after the AGM of May 11, 2011. The Supervisory Board intends to appoint Jean Frijns as new chairman. After the retirement of Willy Angenent, the Supervisory Board will consist of six members once more.
