2024 ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS PROQR THERAPEUTICS N.V. - NOTICE AND AGENDA

Attendance and voting

Only shareholders as of the close of business on April 24, 2024 (the "Record Date") are entitled to attend and/or and vote at the AGM. Each share outstanding on the Record Date is entitled to one vote on each voting item.

The procedure for voting and attendance depends on the way you hold your shares in the Company:

Beneficial Owners: persons who hold their ordinary shares in the capital of the Company through a bank, broker or other nominee (through Cede & Co., as nominee for the Depository Trust Company) are regarded as "Beneficial Owners". This applies to the majority of the Company's shareholders.

  • Proxy voting:Beneficial Owners who wish to vote by proxy should follow the instructions and use the voting instrument provided by the bank, financial institution, account holder or other financial intermediary through which they hold their beneficial ownership of shares. Beneficial Owners who have any questions in respect of the above procedure are recommended to contact their bank or broker for further information.
  • Attendance:Beneficial Owners who wish to attend the AGM in person must have their financial intermediary or their agent with whom the shares are on deposit issue a written statement to them which confirms their position at the Record Date. These Beneficial Owners must (i) notify the Company of their intention to attend by submitting their name and number of shares beneficially owned through the Company's e-mail address legal@proqr.com no later than on May 15, 2024, and (ii) submit with their registration a statement confirming their shareholding at the Record Date, as received from their financial intermediary.

Registered Shareholders: shareholders who are not holding their shares through a bank, broker or other nominee and are registered directly with the Company's transfer agent AST are regarded as "Registered Shareholders".

  • Proxy voting:Registered Shareholders who wish to vote by proxy may do so by using the template proxy form that has been made available on the Website as part of the AGM Materials.
  • Attendance:Registered Shareholders who wish to attend the AGM in person must notify the Company by submitting their name and number of registered shares through the Company's e-mail address legal@proqr.com no later than May 15, 2024.

Persons entitled to attend the meeting may be asked for identification prior to being admitted and are therefore asked to carry a valid identity document (such as a passport or identity card).
