Decisions of the Aspo Annual Shareholders´ Meeting - Seite 3

Authorization of the Board to decide on a rights issue

The Annual Shareholders´ Meeting authorized the Board of Directors to decide on
a rights issue for consideration. The authorization includes the right of the
Board of Directors to decide on all of the other terms and conditions of the
conveyance and thus also includes the right to decide on a directed share issue,
in deviation from the shareholders´ pre-emptive right, if a compelling financial
reason exists for the company to do so. The total number of new shares to be
offered for subscription may not exceed 1,500,000. The authorization remains in
force until September 30, 2015.

The authorization will supersede the authorization concerning a share issue
which was granted to the Board of Directors by the Annual Shareholders´ Meeting
on April 5, 2011.
