Den Haag, 27-2-13
Koninklijke KPN N.V. (“KPN”) has published the agenda of its Annual General Meeting of Shareholders, to be held on April 10th, 2013. The agenda contains, amongst others, a number of proposed changes to KPN’s Supervisory Board. The Supervisory Board consists of eight members of which four members, Mr Risseeuw, Ms Van Lier Lels, Mr Routs and Mr Haank, will step down since the end of their four-year term is reached. Furthermore, Mr Bischoff will step down as a member of the Supervisory Board due to other commitments. Mr Bischoff has been a member of KPN’s Supervisory Board for the last ten years.
The Supervisory Board firmly believes that it is in the best interest of the company to ensure continuity in the Supervisory Board. In that respect, Ms Van Lier Lels, Mr Routs and Mr Haank have indicated that they are available for reappointment. Ms Van Lier Lels has already served three terms but has stated her availability, also following the request of the Central Works Council, for reappointment for a period of one year. Mr Routs also indicated his availability for reappointment for a limited period of one year, due to other commitments. Mr Haank has indicated his availability for reappointment for a full term. Mr Risseeuw, who’s current four-year term of office is his third and last term, will not be available for reappointment. The Supervisory Board nominates Ms Van Lier Lels, Mr Routs and Mr Haank for reappointment to the Supervisory Board.
Furthermore, the Supervisory Board nominates Mr García Moreno Elizondo, CFO of América Móvil (“AMX”) and Mr von Hauske, COO and board member of AMX for appointment as members of the Supervisory Board. These nominations are related to the relationship agreement between KPN and AMX. AMX will vote in favour of KPN’s capital raise subject, among other things, to the appointment of two Supervisory Board members designated by AMX.
