Shareholders’ Meetings are chaired by the Chairman of the Board of Directors or the Supervisory Board, as applicable, or, in his absence, by the person provided for in the Articles of Association. Failing this, the meeting shall elect its own chairman.

If convened by the statutory auditors, by a court-appointed agent or by the liquidators, the meeting shall be chaired by the person or by one of those who convened it.
