IV. OPTION OF APPOINTING A REPRESENTATIVE AND PROCEDURE TO BE COMPLIED WITH
Each shareholder who is eligible to attend the Annual General Meeting, and has
proven this to the company in accordance with the specifications in Item III of
this convocation, has the right to appoint a proxy who may attend the Annual
General Meeting on behalf of the shareholder and has the same rights as the
shareholder he or she represents. The proxy must be granted to a specific
person (natural person or legal entity) in text form (Section 13(2) AktG); it
is also possible to authorize several persons. It is possible to grant a proxy
both before and during the Annual General Meeting. We offer the following
channels for the delivery of proxies: By mail or courier: Rosenbauer
International AG
Investor Relations
For attn. Ms. Gerda Königstorfer,
Paschinger Strasse 90
4060 Leonding, Austria
By fax: + 43 (0) 1 8900 500 49
By e-mail: anmeldung.rosenbauer@hauptversammlung.at (Proxies can be considered
in PDF format.) The proxies must be received at one of the above addresses by
May 17, 2017, 4:00 p.m. at the latest, if they will not be turned in at the
entry and exit control of the Annual General Meeting on the day of the Annual
General Meeting. A proxy form and a form for revoking the proxy are available
from the company's web-site at www.rosenbauer.com. In the interest of ensuring
that these are processed smoothly, we ask that you please always use the forms
provided. Details on the authorization of proxies, particularly on the text
form and on the content of the proxy, are set out in the proxy form provided to
the shareholders. If the shareholder has issued a proxy for his custodian bank
(Section 10a AktG), it shall be sufficient for it to submit the declaration
that a proxy has been granted to it in addition to the deposit certificate via
the route provided for its delivery to the company. Shareholders can personally
exercise their rights in the Annual General Meeting even after issuing a proxy.
Appearance in person is considered a revocation of any previous-ly issued
proxy. The above provisions on the granting of a proxy shall apply analogously
for revoking the proxy.
Independent Voting Proxy As an additional service, Dr. Johannes
Freiler-Waldburger, General Counsel and Group Compliance Officer, is available
to shareholders as an independent proxy to exercise voting rights at the Annual
General Meeting in accordance with instructions. A special proxy form for
authorizing Dr. Johannes Freiler- Waldburger is available on the company's
website at www.rosenbauer.com and must be received by the company at one of the
aforementioned addresses for submitting proxies (fax, e-mail, mail) only. It is
also possible to contact Dr. Johannes Freiler-Waldburger, General Counsel and
Group Compliance Officer, directly by telephone on +43 (732) 6794-5316 or
e-mail at Johannes.Freiler- Waldburger@rosenbauer.com. The shareholder must
issue instructions to Dr. Johannes Freiler-Waldburger as to how he (or any
sub-representative authorized by Dr. Johannes Freiler-Waldburger) must exercise
the voting right. Dr. Johannes Freiler-Waldburger will vote exclusively in
ac-cordance with instructions given by the respective shareholder. The proxy is
invalid without explicit instructions. Please note that the proxy will not
accept instructions to speak, raise objections to resolutions of the Annual
General Meeting, or to ask questions or file motions.
Guests The Annual General Meeting is the primary body of a stock corporation,
since it is the forum for the owners of the company - the shareholders. For
this reason, we ask for your understanding of the fact that we cannot make the
Annual General Meeting into an event for guests, as much as we appreciate such
interest. The participation of guests is thus only possible after prior
Registration (tel.: 0043 732 6794 402,e-mail: ir@rosenbauer.com). We ask for
your understanding that, due to the historically large number of participants
at our Annual General Meeting, for organizational reasons in connection with
the prep-aration of the buffet per deposit certificate, it is generally only
possible for a maximum of two persons (one shareholder and one proxy, or two
proxies instead of the shareholder) to be admitted.
V. NOTES ON THE RIGHTS OF SHAREHOLDERS PURSUANT TO SECTIONS 109, 110, 118 AND
119 OF THE AUSTRIAN STOCK CORPORATION ACT (AKTG - AKTIENGESETZ)
1. Additions to the Agenda by Shareholders Under Section 109 AktG Shareholders
whose combined shares total 5% of the share capital and who have held these
shares for at least three months prior to filing the motion can submit a
written request for items to be added to the agenda of this Annual General
Meeting and an-nounced, provided that such written request is received by
the company via mail or courier no later than April 27, 2017 (12:00
midnight), at the following address only: Gerda Königstorfer, Investor
Relations Department, Paschinger Strasse 90, 4060 Leonding, Austria. Each
agenda item thus requested must be accompanied by a pro-posed resolution and
a statement of grounds. Proof of share ownership must be presented in the
form of a deposit certificate pursuant to Section 10a AktG which confirms
that the shareholders filing the motion have held the shares for at least
three months prior to filing the motion and which is no more than seven days
old at the time of its presentation to the company. Please refer to the
information on eligibility to attend (Item III) regarding the other
requirements of the deposit certificate.
2. Resolutions Proposed for the Agenda by Shareholders Under Section 110 AktG
Shareholders whose combined shares total 1% of the share capital may submit
written proposals for resolutions plus grounds for each item on the agenda
of this Annual General Meeting and request that such proposals be made
available on the company's website listed in the company register along with
the names of the shareholders concerned, the accompanying statement of
grounds and any opinion of the Executive Board or the Supervisory Board,
provided this request is received by the company in text form by May 9, 2017
(12:00 midnight) at latest, either by fax to +43 (0)732 6794 - 89 or to
Gerda Königstorfer, Investor Relations Department, Paschinger Strasse 90,
4060 Leonding, Austria, or by e- mail to ir@rosenbauer.com, whereby the
request in text form must be attached to the e-mail, e.g. as a PDF. In the
case of a nomination for the election of a Supervisory Board member, the
statement of the nominated person pursuant to Section 87 (2) AktG must be
submitted instead of the statement of grounds. Proof of share ownership must
be presented in the form of a deposit certificate pursuant to Section 10a
AktG, which is no more than seven days old at the time of its presentation
to the company. Please refer to the information on eligibility to attend
(Item III) regarding the other requirements of the deposit certificate.
3. Shareholders' Right to Information Under Section 118 AktG At the Annual
General Meeting, each shareholder is entitled to receive, upon request,
information on company matters to the extent that it is required for proper
assessment of an agenda item. The obligation to provide information also
extends to the legal rela-tionships of the company to an affiliated company,
as well as to the position of the Group and of the companies included in the
consolidated financial statements. Such information may be refused if,
according to sound business judgment, it has the potential to cause a
considerable disadvantage to the company or an affiliated company or if its
disclosure would cause liability to prosecution. The Chairman of the Annual
General Meeting can appropriately restrict the sharehold-ers' rights to
speak and ask questions in terms of time pursuant to Section 19 (2) of the
Articles of Association. He can order general and individual restrictions on
speaking and questioning times, particularly at the beginning of, but also
during, the Annual General Meeting. Requests for information at the Annual
General Meeting are generally to be made ver-bally, but are also acceptable
in writing. Questions whose answers require longer preparation may be
submitted in writing to the Executive Board in good time prior to the Annual
General Meeting in order to ensure that the meeting runs efficiently. The
questions may be submitted to the company by fax to +43 (0)732 6794 - 89 or
by e-mail to ir@rosenbauer.com.
4. Motions by Shareholders at the Annual General Meeting Under Section 119 AktG
Each shareholder - irrespective of the size of their shareholding - is
entitled to file motions on each item of the agenda at the Annual General
Meeting. If multiple motions are submitted for one item on the agenda, the
Chairman shall specify the sequence of voting pursuant to Section 119 (3)
AktG. However, the prompt submission of a proposed resolution in accordance
with Section 110 AktG is a mandatory requirement in the case of a
shareholder nomination for the election of a Supervisory Board member:
persons may only be nominated for election to the Supervisory Board (agen-da
item 6) by shareholders who together hold at least 1% of the share capital.
Such nominations must be received by the company in the manner described
above (Item V (2)) by May 9, 2017, at the latest. Each nomination must be
accompanied by a state-ment from the nominated person in accordance with
Section 87 (2) AktG regarding their professional qualifications, their
professional or comparable positions and any circumstances that could give
rise to concerns regarding impartiality. Otherwise, the shareholder
nomination for the election of a Supervisory Board member may not be taken
into consideration in the vote.
5. Information on the Website More detailed information on these shareholder
rights pursuant to Sections 109, 110, 118 and 119 AktG is available on the
company's website at www.rosenbauer.com.
