Ter Beke Dealing Code for transactions in securities

Ter Beke’s Dealing Code defines the rules for transactions in Ter Beke securities (annex 3 of the group’s Corporate Governance Charter).

• The Dealing Code states that price-sensitive information must be communicated immediately.

• Directors, executives and insiders must submit stock transactions to the compliance officer. If the advice is negative, the person must cancel the transaction or submit it to the board of directors.

• The Dealing Code contains guidelines to preserve the confidentiality of privileged information. For example, the Dealing Code provides for blackout periods. Directors and other relevant persons of Ter Beke are not allowed to conduct transactions in Ter Beke securities then.

• New board members, the executive committee and other persons who regularly have access to privileged information are always informed about the Dealing Code.

• The company also keeps a list of the persons who have access to privileged information
