Conditions of participation in the General Meeting and exercising voting rights

For the date of the General Meeting as a corporate event, the Company requests shareholder identification to be carried out by KELER Központi Értéktár Zártkörűen Működő Részvénytársaság (hereinafter: KELER

Zrt.). The rules on shareholder identification are set out in the prevailing regulations of KELER Zrt. The date of shareholder identification shall be 22 April 2024.

On the last but one working day preceding the date of the General Meeting, that is at 6:00 p.m. on 25 April 2024, the Company shall delete all data effective at the time of shareholder identification in the share register and at the same time shall enter the data resulting from shareholder identification and close the share register accordingly. Thereafter the earliest date for any entry to be made in the share register concerning shareholdings shall be the first working day following the General Meeting.

Shareholders intending to participate in a General Meeting should consult their respective securities account managers regarding the tasks to be carried out and the deadlines to be met if they are to be involved in shareholder identification by KELER Zrt. The Company shall not be liable for any consequence of any omission on the part of securities account keepers.

The closure of the share register shall not restrict the right of any person entered therein to transfer their shares following the closure of the share register. Transferring their shares prior to the General Meeting shall not exclude the right of a shareholder listed in the share register to participate in the General Meeting and exercise shareholder's rights.

The General Meeting may be attended by a shareholder or a shareholder's proxy as defined in Sections 151-155 of Act CXX of 2001 on the Capital Market (hereinafter: Capital Market Act) who, as a result of shareholder identification, has been registered in the share register by the second business day preceding the start of the General Meeting, the latest. Any persons listed in the share register at the time of closure thereof, that is at 6:00 pm on 25 April 2024, shall be entitled to exercise shareholder's rights at the

General Meeting.

Shareholders may exercise their rights at the General Meeting in person or by way of a proxy (hereinafter: 'proxy'). A member or the chairman of the Board of Directors, the Supervisory Board or the auditor may not act as a shareholder's proxy. Shareholders may also authorise an executive employee of the Company to exercise their rights at the General Meeting. The authorisation to act as a proxy shall be valid for one General Meeting or for the period specified in the authorisation, but in any case for no longer than 12 months. The authorisation shall also be valid for the continuation of a suspended General Meeting or a General Meeting re-convened due to lack of quorum. The authorisation shall be drawn up in the formof a public document or a private document with full probative value and submitted to the Company. The authorisation shall state the fact that the holder of the authorisation shall act as a shareholder's proxy. A proxy may represent more than one shareholder, but must have a proxy authorisation in the form of a public document or a private document with full probative value for each shareholder represented.

Pursuant to Section 153 (3) of the Capital Market Act, the Company calls on the institutions to be entered in the Company's share register as shareholder proxies (nominees) to identify the shareholders represented by them by no later than 6:00 pm (CET) on the last but one working day preceding the date of the General Meeting, specifying the name/company name, home address/registered address and the number of shares held, provided that if the shareholder's proxy fails to submit the required data by the above deadline in part or in full, they shall not, pursuant to the relevant legal regulations, exercise voting rights at the General Meeting.

In the event that a shareholder organisation attends the General Meeting via a legal representative (e.g. director or executive), the document proving their power of representation, issued by the competent court or court of registration no more than 30 days previously, shall be presented at the venue of the General Meeting in the form of an original or a copy authenticated by a notary public. In order to certify the existence and power of representation of a company (or other organisation) registered abroad, it is essential that the foreign document is issued by a public registry, or certified by a notary public. The notarial declaration should clearly identify at least the existence of the authorising entity and the signatory power of the persons who have signed the authorisation.

In the event that an authorisation or a document submitted as proof of the power of representation has not been issued in Hungary, the format of the document must comply with the statutory requirements for the certification and authentication of documents issued abroad. Accordingly, in the absence of a bilateral international agreement providing otherwise, (i) such documents shall require diplomatic certification and authentication, or, (ii) if the country concerned is a party to the relevant international agreement, should carry an Apostille. Pursuant to Section 44 (7) of Act LXXVIII of 2017 on the Professional Activities of Lawyers, a document signed by the parties abroad and countersigned by a lawyer covered by this Act shall not require diplomatic certification or authentication, or an Apostille to be fully authentic. Detailed information on the applicable rules is available at the Hungarian diplomatic missions abroad. If the document is not drawn up in Hungarian or English, a certified translation of the document in Hungarian shall also be required. Shareholders may exercise their voting rights by post prior to the General Meeting, in accordance with the detailed rules laid down in the Articles of Association and the applicable legislation. Another prerequisite for the exercise of voting rights at the General Meeting is that the shareholding and voting rights of the shareholder are not in violation of the provisions laid down in the relevant statutory regulations - this shall be verified by the Company.

Each ordinary series "A" share with a nominal value of one thousand forints shall represent one vote.

In order to ensure the smooth conduct of the General Meeting, Shareholders are kindly requested to inform the Company whether they wish to attend by e-mail atinvestorrelations@mbhbank.hu or in writing
