Each shareholder, regardless of the number of the shares he owns, shall have the right to attend the general assembly, and shall have a number of votes equal to the number of shares he owns in the company. Any provision or decision to the contrary shall be null and void. Any shareholder may delegate a person, from among the shareholders or from among non-shareholders to attend the general assembly on his behalf, provided that this person shall not be the chairman of the board or from among the members of the board of directors or from among the members of the company's staff. However, this shall not prejudice the right to delegate a first-degree relative. The company shall prepare a special written form for this purpose. The delegate shall not represent in this capacity a number of votes exceeding 5% of the issued capital in the general assembly meetings. Legal representatives of the members lacking capacity or under legal incapacity shall represent them in the meetings. The company shall prepare special cards for the shares owned by the shareholder and for the shares he represents on behalf of other shareholders. Delegation shall be made, and delegation capacity shall be shown to the company, twenty-four hours at least before the general assembly meeting. No member shall vote for himself or for whomsoever he represents in matters in which he has a direct interest or on an unsettled dispute between him and the company.
