The Executive Board of the Company has not appointed a representative to exercise shareholders’ voting rights. There is no need for such a proxy at present because of the current shareholder structure and the small number of voting shareholders. The Executive Board did appoint a representative to exercise preference shareholders’ voting rights by proxy for the separate meeting of preference shareholders’ meeting in June 2009. |
