CURRENT TEXT<br />

PROPOSED AMENDMENT<br />

Preamble<br />

The Special Committee’s Report <strong>for</strong> the<br />

furtherance of transparency <strong>and</strong> security<br />

in listed markets <strong>and</strong> companies (“Aldama<br />

Report”) recommends, among other<br />

points, that listed companies prepare <strong>and</strong><br />

disseminate a Specific Regulation <strong>for</strong><br />

General Meetings, which should be<br />

submitted to it <strong>for</strong> approval, which governs<br />

the convening, preparation, in<strong>for</strong>mation,<br />

attendance, implementation <strong>and</strong> exercise<br />

of shareholder voting rights, in<br />

accordance at all times with the Law <strong>and</strong><br />

the Corporate Bylaws.<br />

In order to comply with this<br />

recommendation, following the criteria <strong>and</strong><br />

recommendations of said Report, the<br />

Board of Directors of <strong>AMPER</strong> S.A. has<br />

submitted to the General Shareholders’<br />

Meeting of the company, who approved it<br />

at the meeting held on 24 June 2003, the<br />

present Regulation of the General<br />

Shareholders’ Meeting of <strong>AMPER</strong>, S.A.,<br />

which governs all the points covered in<br />

the Aldama Report. Subsequently, due to<br />

new developments that have arisen in<br />

regard to shareholder in<strong>for</strong>mation tools, as<br />

well as the use of new technologies to<br />

exercise the right of in<strong>for</strong>mation,<br />

attendance, voting <strong>and</strong> representation, the<br />

Board of Directors has considered it<br />

necessary to propose the amendment of<br />

this Regulation to the General<br />

Shareholders’ Meeting. The General<br />

Shareholders’ Meeting approved the<br />

proposed amendments at its meeting held<br />

on 22 June 2004. The resulting text is that<br />

contained in the current Regulation. (Note:<br />

The Meeting of 15 June 2006 approved<br />

the amendment of Article 6 of this<br />

Regulation in regard to the period <strong>for</strong><br />

convening Meetings <strong>and</strong> the Meeting of<br />

29 June 2011 approved the amendment<br />

of Articles 2, 5, 6, 12, 13, 24, 27 <strong>and</strong> 28 of<br />

the present Regulation to adapt it to<br />

current legislation).<br />

Preamble<br />

This document contains the Regulation<br />

of the General Shareholders’ Meeting<br />

of Amper S.A. pursuant to the<br />

requirements of Article 512 of the<br />

Capital Company Act.<br />

This Regulation aims to: a) make public the<br />

procedures <strong>for</strong> preparing <strong>and</strong> holding<br />

General Meetings; b) define the <strong>for</strong>ms <strong>for</strong><br />

the exercise of shareholders’ voting rights<br />

on the occasion of the convening <strong>and</strong><br />

holding of the General Meetings; c)<br />

systematize the process of preparation <strong>and</strong><br />

conduct of the General Meeting.<br />

In order to provide shareholders with a<br />

good knowledge <strong>and</strong> underst<strong>and</strong>ing of the<br />

operating rules of the General Meeting <strong>and</strong><br />

of all issues relating to it, it has been<br />

considered appropriate to rewrite all the<br />

bylaw provisions of this Regulation, as well<br />

as of the Regulation of the Board of<br />

Directors <strong>and</strong> other current corporate rules<br />

relating to them, in a way that allows<br />

shareholders, with a single text ordered<br />

systematically, to have access to all<br />

in<strong>for</strong>mation relating to the General Meeting.<br />
