The board of directors ("Board") has decided to nominate Arnold Goldberg (58)

ABB Ltd., later contributing to IBM's WebSphere Application Server. From 2000

infrastructure teams and setting technology standards. Between 2008 and 2012,
he scaled startups like LinkedIn, launching platform initiatives, and Box,

transformations, rebuilt merchant products, and oversaw 2 000+ employees and a
US$400m budget, driving significant growth in revenue and market cap. Arnold
joined Google in January 2022 as VP and GM of Payments, leading teams for
Google Pay, Google Wallet and the Payments Platform, serving Billions
of users. He drove an open ecosystem strategy, tripling growth rates, and

with the outcomes of the assessments. Additionally, the Group confirms that

information contained in the director's declarations.

The Board takes great pleasure in welcoming Mr Goldberg.
