    Pursuant to section 110 of the Stock Corporations Act, shareholders whose
    aggregate shareholding equals one percent or more of the nominal capital may

    request that these be made available on the Company website registered with the

    be considered when received by the Company no later than on the 7th working day
    before the General Meeting, i.e. by 26 April 2019. In case of a proposal for the

    company website www.semperitgroup.com/ir [http://www.semperitgroup.com/ir] under
    the menu item "General Meeting 2019" no more than two working days from receipt
    and no later than 30 April 2019.

    Pursuant to section 119 para 2 of the Stock Corporations Act, a resolution
    proposal that has been published on the Company's website pursuant to section
    110 of the Stock Corporations Act is only to be voted on if it is repeated in
    the General Meeting as a motion.

    Pursuant to section 118 of the Stock Corporations Act, shareholders shall be
    provided with information on the company's affairs upon request at the General
    Meeting to the extent that such information is required for proper assessment of
    an item on the agenda. This obligation to provide information shall also extend
    to the legal and business relationships of the Company with affiliated
    companies, the state of affairs of the group, and the companies included in the
    consolidated financial statements.

    The Company may deny providing information to the extent that according to sound
    business judgment it might cause material damage to the Company or any
    affiliated company or if providing such information would constitute a
    punishable offense. Providing information may also be denied if such information
    has been continuously available on the Company website registered with the
    commercial register in the form of question and answer for at least seven days
    prior to the beginning of the General Meeting.

    Pursuant to Section 119 of the Stock Corporations Act every shareholder, the
    Management Board and the Supervisory Board are entitled to submit motions on any
    agenda item during the Annual General Meeting. A resolution may not be adopted
    regarding a topic of discussion that was not properly announced as an agenda
    item.

    Pursuant to 87 para 6 of the Stock Corporations Act, Semperit Aktiengesellschaft
    Holding as listed company must announce on its websites the proposed candidates

    with section 87 para 2 of the Stock Corporations Act for each proposed person by
    no later than five working days prior to the General Meeting, i.e. on 30 April
    2019. Failure to do so means the person concerned may not be included in the
    vote. The submission of a corresponding motion at the General Meeting is
    therefore not possible.

    preparation to answer to the Company in text form (for example as PDF)

    Possibility to appoint a proxy holder pursuant to sections 113 et seq Stock
    Corporations Act (section 106 pt. 8 of the Stock Corporations Act)

    Any shareholder entitled to attend the General Meeting shall be entitled to
    appoint a natural or legal person as proxy holder. The proxy holder may attend
    the General Meeting on behalf of the shareholder and will have the same rights
    as the shareholder represented. The Company itself or a member of the Management
    Board or Supervisory Board may exercise voting rights as a proxy holder only
    insofar as the shareholder has explicitly provided detailed voting instructions
    regarding the individual items of the agenda.
    The proxy must be granted to a specific person. A proxy in text form shall be
    sufficient in any case. If a shareholder has granted power of proxy to the
    depositary bank (section 10a of the Stock Corporations Act) it shall be
    sufficient if in addition to submitting the deposit certificate the bank makes a
    statement that it has been granted power of proxy. It is also possible to grant
    power of proxy to multiple persons. Forms for granting power of proxy which may
    also be used to grant limited power of proxy are available on the Company
    website www.semperitgroup.com/ir under the menu item "General Meeting 2019". A
    form for the revocation of the power of proxy is also available on the Company

    The proxy must be received no later than on 7 May 2019, 1.00 p.m. (CEST)

    attached to the E-mail in text form, e.g. as PDF-file, and will be kept by the
    Company.

    If a shareholder has granted power of proxy to the depositary bank (section 10a
    of the Stock Corporations Act) it shall be sufficient if in addition to
    submitting the deposit certificate the bank makes a statement that it has been
    granted power of proxy. The aforementioned requirements applying to the
    submission of the deposit certificate shall apply analogously to the submission
    of this notification.

    On the day of the General Meeting the proxy may only be submitted upon
    registration for the General Meeting at the venue of the meeting. The
    aforementioned provisions on granting power of proxy apply analogously to the
    revocation of power of proxy. Any revocation shall be valid only when received
    at one of the aforementioned addresses respectively by the Company.

    As a special, free of charge service, shareholders who are not able or do not
    wish to attend the General Meeting in person may have their voting rights in the
    General Meeting exercised by a representative of the "Interessenverband für
    Anleger" (IVA, Austrian Association of Investors), 1130 Vienna, Feldmühlgasse
    22. Mr. Michael Knap has been appointed by IVA as representative for these
    shareholders for the General Meeting. Shareholders intending to grant power of
    proxy are not obliged to appoint Mr Michael Knap as their proxy holder. A
    special form for granting power of proxy or revocation of proxy to Mr Michael
    Knap may be downloaded at the Company website www.semperitgroup.com/ir [http://

    text),


    whereby the proxy must be attached to the E-mail in text form, e.g. as PDF-file,
    and will be kept by the Company.

    at tel. +43 664 - 2138740, fax +43 1 8763343 - 39 or via e-mail at
    michael.knap@iva.or.at.

    The shareholder shall instruct Mr. Michael Knap how he (or perhaps a
    representative authorised by Mr. Michael Knap) has to exercise the voting right.
    Mr. Michael Knap shall exercise the voting right solely on the basis of the
    instructions issued by the shareholder. Without an explicit voting instruction
    on a specific agenda item the proxy is invalid with regards to this agenda item.

    Please note that the proxy holder does not accept instructions for requests to
    speak, for filing notices of opposition against shareholder resolutions or for
    raising questions or motions.

    Information to shareholders regarding data processing

    1. Which personal data of shareholders is processed and for what purposes?

    Semperit AG Holding processes personal data of shareholders (in particular those
    pursuant to Sec 10a sub-section 2 Stock Corporations Act, i.e. name, address,
    date of birth, number of the securities deposit, number of shares of the
    shareholder, type of share if applicable, number of the voting card and, if
    applicable, name and date of birth of the proxy holder) on the basis of the
    applicable data protection regulations, in particular the European General Data
    Protection Regulation ("GDPR") and the Austrian Data Protection Act ("DSG"), in
    order to enable shareholders to exercise their rights at the General Meeting.

    In this connection the shareholders' personal data is processed for the
    following purposes:

    * Organization and holding of General Meetings, including verification of the
    right to attend/power of proxy and determination of the voting ratio
    * Participation of shareholders in the General Meeting and exercise of
    shareholder rights
    * Preparation of registration, power of proxy and attendance lists
    * Preparation of the minutes of the General Meeting
    * Fulfillment of compliance obligations, including recording, disclosure and
    reporting obligations.


    The processing of the shareholders' personal data is mandatory for the
    participation of shareholders and their representatives in the General Meeting
    in accordance with the Stock Corporations Act. The legal basis for the
    processing therefore is Article 6 sub-section 1 lit c GDPR (compliance with a
    legal obligation). For the processing Semperit AG Holding is controller as
    defined in Art 4 pt. 7 GDPR.

    2. To whom is the shareholders' personal data transferred?

    Semperit AG Holding uses external service providers, such as notaries, lawyers,
    banks and IT service providers, for the purpose of organizing the General
    Meeting. These service providers receive only such personal data from Semperit
    AG Holding as is necessary for the performance of the commissioned service, and,
    where they are processors as defined in Art 4 pt. 8 GDPR, process the data
    solely on instructions of Semperit AG Holding. Where legally required, Semperit
    AG Holding has concluded a data protection agreement with these service
    providers.

    If a shareholder participates in the General Meeting, all present shareholders
    or their representatives respectively, the members of the Management Board and
    Supervisory Board, the notary and any other person with a legal right to attend
    may view the list of participants stipulated by statute (section 117 Stock
    Corporations Act) and thereby also have access to the personal data contained
    therein (inter alia name, place of residence, shareholding relationship).
    Semperit AG Holding also has the statutory obligation to submit the
    shareholders' personal data (in particular the list of participants) to the
    commercial register at the competent commercial register court (section 120
    Stock Corporations Act) as part of the notarial protocol.

    In addition, the shareholders' personal data may also be transferred to the
    competent authorities or bodies if necessary.

    3. How long is the shareholders' personal data stored?

    Shareholders' data will be anonymized or deleted as soon as it is no longer
    necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or processed, and no other
    legal obligations require further storage. Obligations to provide evidence and
    to retain records arise in particular from corporate, stock corporation and
    takeover law, from tax and duties law as well as from anti money laundering
    regulations. If legal claims are made by shareholders against Semperit AG
    Holding or vice versa by Semperit AG Holding against shareholders, the storage
    of personal data serves to clarify and enforce claims in individual cases. In
    connection with proceedings before civil courts, this can lead to storage of
    data for the duration of the statute of limitations plus the duration of the
    court proceedings up to its legally binding conclusion.

    4. What rights do shareholders have with regard to their personal data?

    Every shareholder has a right to access, rectification, restriction, objection
    and deletion at any time with regard to the processing of personal data as well
    as a right to data portability in accordance with Chapter III GDPR. Shareholders
    can assert these rights against Semperit AG Holding free of charge at the
    following point of contact: Semperit AG Holding attn. of Rechtsabteilung,
    Modecenterstrasse 22, 1031 Vienna E-Mail: data.privacy@semperitgroup.com.

    In addition, shareholders have the right to lodge a complaint with the data
    protection supervisory authority pursuant to Article 77 GDPR.

    5. Further information

    Further information on data protection can be found in the data protection
    declaration on the website of Semperit AG Holding www.semperitgroup.com .
