If the purchaser is not prepared to render such a declaration, the Board of Directors can refuse to enter the shares with voting rights in the register. Pursuant to Art. 5a of the Statutes (www.llb.li/statutes), the Board of Directors has specified that nominee registrations without the above-mentioned declaration are generally to be made without a voting right.
