I. HELD AS A VIRTUAL ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING
1. Corporate COVID-19 Act (COVID-19-GesG) and Corporate COVID-19
Regulation (COVID-19-GesV)
The Executive Board decided to make use of the legal regulation of a
virtual Annual General Meeting in order to protect shareholders and other
participants.
The Annual General Meeting of SCHOELLER-BLECKMANN OILFIELD EQUIPMENT
Aktiengesellschaft on 28 April 2022 will be held as a virtual Annual
General Meeting on the basis of Section 1 (2) COVID-19-GesG, Federal Law
Gazette I no. 16/2020 as amended by Federal Law Gazette I no. 246/2021 and
COVID-19-GesV (Federal Law Gazette II no. 140/2020 as amended by Federal
Law Gazette II no 609/2021), taking into account the interests of both the
Company and the participants.
As a consequence, according to the resolution of the Executive Board,
shareholders and their representatives (with the exception of the special
proxies pursuant to Section 3 (4) COVID-19-GesV) cannot be physically
present at the Annual General Meeting of SCHOELLER-BLECKMANN OILFIELD
EQUIPMENT Aktiengesellschaft on 28 April 2022.
The virtual Annual General Meeting is held in the physical presence of the
Chairman of the Supervisory Board, the Chief Executive Officer and the
other member of the Executive Board, the certifying official notary
public, and the four special proxies proposed by the Company and auditor’s
representative at the \\“Stadthalle\\“ in 2630 Ternitz,
Theodor-Körner-Platz 2.
The holding of the Annual General Meeting as a virtual Annual General
Meeting in accordance with COVID-19-GesV leads to modifications in the
course of the Annual General Meeting and in the exercise of shareholders‘
rights.
The exercise of voting rights, the right to submit proposals for
resolutions and the right to object are exclusively carried out by one of
the special proxies proposed by the Company in accordance with Section 3
(4) COVID-19-GesV.
The right to information may be exercised at the virtual Annual General
Meeting by the shareholders themselves by means of electronic
communication, and in text form exclusively by E-mail directly to the
E-mail address [1]fragen.sbo@hauptversammlung.at of the Company, provided
that the shareholders have submitted a deposit certificate as defined in
Section 10a Austrian Stock Corporation Act (AktG) within the prescribed
period in accordance with Section IV. and have authorized a special proxy
in accordance with Section V.
2. Broadcast of the Annual General Meeting on the internet
Pursuant to Section 3 (1), (2), and (4) COVID-19-GesV in conjunction with
Section 102 (4) Austrian Stock Corporation Act (AktG), the Annual General
Meeting will be broadcasted in full acoustically and visually in real time
on the internet.
This is permissible under data protection law with regard to the legal
basis provided under Section 3 (1), (2), and (4) COVID-19-GesV.
All shareholders of the Company will be able to follow the Annual General
Meeting on 28 April 2022 from 10:00 a.m., Vienna time, as a virtual Annual
General Meeting at [2] www.sbo.at/hauptversammlung by using suitable
technical equipment (e.g. computer, notebook, tablet, or smartphone as
well as an internet connection with sufficient bandwidth for video
streaming). No registration or login is required to follow the Annual
General Meeting.
The Company offers two alternative accesses to the internet broadcast with
picture and sound in German language. Shareholders are requested to select
one broadcast on the Company’s website (on broadcast 1; on broadcast 2).
If shareholders experience transmission or reception disruptions, they are
asked to switch to the other provider.
The broadcast of the Annual General Meeting on the internet will enable
all shareholders to follow the course of the Annual General Meeting in
real time via this one-way acoustic and optical connection, and in
particular to follow the presentation by the Executive Board, the answers
to shareholders‘ questions and the voting process.
Please note that this live broadcast, being a virtual Annual General
Meeting, does not enable remote participation (Section 102 (3) No. 2
Austrian Stock Corporation Act (AktG)) and remote voting (Section 102 (3)
No. 3 and Section 126 Austrian Stock Corporation Act (AktG)) and that the
internet broadcast is not a two-way connection. Therefore, the individual
shareholder will only be able to follow the course of the Annual General
Meeting. Therefore the shareholders cannot make a request to speak via
this connection.
It is also noted that the Company is only insofar responsible for the use
of technical means of communication attributable to its sphere of
influence (Section 2 (6) COVID-19-GesV).
Furthermore, reference is made to the information on the organizational

3. Information pursuant to Section 110 (2) Sentence 2 in conjunction with
Section 86 (7) and 9 Austrian Stock Corporation Act (AktG)
In regard to item 6. \\“Elections to the Supervisory Board\\“ and to
any submission of a corresponding nomination by shareholders pursuant to
Section 110 Austrian Stock Corporation Act (AktG), the company provides
the following information:
§ 10 (1) of the Articles of Association of SCHOELLER-BLECKMANN OILFIELD
EQUIPMENT Aktiengesellschaft stipulates that the Supervisory Board shall
consist of four to six members appointed by the General Meeting.
Note that the works council has not delegated any members to the
Supervisory Board pursuant to Section 110 Austrian Labor Constitutional
Act (ArbVG) and therefore no statement is made as to whether an objection
has been declared pursuant to Section 86 (9) Austrian Stock Corporation
Act (AktG).
The Supervisory Board of SCHOELLER-BLECKMANN OILFIELD EQUIPMENT
Aktiengesellschaft currently consists of five members elected by the
Annual General Meeting (shareholders‘ representatives).
SCHOELLER-BLECKMANN OILFIELD EQUIPMENT Aktiengesellschaft is currently not
subject to Section 86 (7) Austrian Stock Corporation Act (AktG) and there
is no obligation to comply with the minimum percentage requirement
pursuant to Section 86 (7) Austrian Stock Corporation Act (AktG), since
the Supervisory Board will continue to consist of only five capital
representatives after the Annual General Meeting if one person is elected
to the Supervisory Board.
Of the five shareholders‘ representatives, three are men and two are
women. The minimum percentage requirement pursuant to Section 86 (7)
Austrian Stock Corporation Act (AktG) has already been fulfilled.
4. Shareholders‘ right to information pursuant to Section 118 Austrian
Stock Corporation Act (AktG)
On request, each shareholder is entitled to obtain information about
matters concerning the Company at the Annual General Meeting to the extent
that this is necessary to properly assess the items on the Agenda. The
information obligation also extends to the legal relations of the Company
to an affiliated company and to the state of the Group and of the
companies included in the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Information may be denied if, according to reasonable business judgement,
it could cause significant harm to the Company or an affiliated company,
or if the disclosure thereof would constitute an offence.
The requirement for exercising the shareholders‘ right to information is
the proof of right to attend (Section IV. of this Invitation) and the
granting of a corresponding power of proxy to the special proxy (Section
V. of this Invitation).
However, it is expressly pointed out that the right to information and the
right to speak during this virtual Annual General Meeting can be exercised
by the shareholders themselves by way of electronic mail exclusively by
sending questions or statements by e-mail directly to the Company at the
e-mail address [12]fragen.sbo@hauptversammlung.at.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, shareholders are asked to submit all
questions in advance in text form by e-mail to the address
[13]fragen.sbo@hauptversammlung.at in such manner that they reach the
Company no later than on the third business day before the Annual General
Meeting, which will be 25 April 2022. This serves to maintain the time
efficiency in the interest of all participants in the Annual General
Meeting, in particular for issues that require a longer preparation time.
It will enable the Executive Board to prepare as accurately as possible
and to respond quickly to your questions.
Please use the Question Form, which is available on the Company’s website
at [14]www.sbo.at/hauptversammlung. If this Question Form is not used, the
personal details of the shareholder (name/company name, date of
birth/company register number) must be stated in the corresponding e-mail.
In order to enable the Company to establish the identity and
correspondence with the deposit confirmation, we ask that you also include
your deposit number in the e-mail.
Please note that reasonable time restrictions may be set for this during
the Annual General Meeting by the Chairman.
Further information and modalities for exercising the shareholders‘ right
to information pursuant to Section 118 Austrian Stock Corporation Act
(AktG) will be specified in the Participation Information.
5. Shareholders‘ proposals pursuant to Section 119 Austrian Stock
Corporation Act (AktG)
Any shareholder – irrespective of a specific shareholding – is entitled to
submit proposals on any item on the Agenda at the virtual Annual General
Meeting pursuant to COVID-19-GesG and COVID-19-GesV through his/her
special proxy.
However the respective shareholder can only submit proposals to the
authorized special proxy and be submitted by the latter in the Annual
General Meeting.
The time up to which instructions for submitting proposals to the special
proxy are possible shall be determined by the Chairman in the course of
the virtual Annual General Meeting.
The requirement for this is proof of the right to attend in accordance
with Section IV. of this Invitation and the granting of a corresponding
power of proxy to the special proxy in accordance with Section V. of this
Invitation.
A shareholder proposal for the election of a member to the Supervisory
Board is subject to the timely submission of a resolution proposal
pursuant to Section 110 Austrian Stock Corporation Act (AktG): Persons for
election to the Supervisory Board (item 6 of the Agenda) may only be
proposed by shareholders whose shares together reach 1% of the share
capital. Such nominations must be received by the Company no later than 19
April 2022 in the manner specified above (Section VI. (2.)). Each
nomination must be accompanied by a declaration pursuant to Section 87 (2)
Austrian Stock Corporation Act (AktG) stating the nominee’s expert
knowledge, his or her professional or comparable functions as well as any
circumstances which could give rise to the concern of bias.
Otherwise, the shareholder’s proposal for the election of a person to the
Supervisory Board must not be taken into account when voting.
For information pursuant to Section 110 (2) Sentence 2 in conjunction with
Section 86 (7) and (9) Austrian Stock Corporation Act (AktG), reference is
made to the explanations in Section VI. (3.).
Further information and modalities for exercising the shareholders‘ right
to submit proposals pursuant to Section 119 Stock Corporations Act (AktG)
will be specified in the Participation Information.
6. Information on data protection for shareholders
SCHOELLER-BLECKMANN OILFIELD EQUIPMENT Aktiengesellschaft processes
personal data of the shareholders (in particular those required by Section
10a (2) Austrian Stock Corporation Act (AktG), i.e. name, address, date of
birth, securities deposit number, number of shares of the shareholder,
class of shares (if applicable), voting card number as well as name and
date of birth of the proxy (if any)) according to the applicable data
protection legislation, in particular the European General Data Protection
Regulation (GDPR) and the Austrian Data Protection Act
(Datenschutzgesetz), in order to enable shareholders to exercise their
rights at the Annual General Meeting.
Under the Austrian Stock Corporation Act (AktG), the processing of
shareholders‘ personal data is a mandatory prerequisite for the
preparation, conducting, follow-up as well as participation of
shareholders and their proxies in the Annual General Meeting. The legal
basis for the processing is Article 6 (1) (c) GDPR.
SCHOELLER-BLECKMANN OILFIELD EQUIPMENT Aktiengesellschaft is the data
controller with respect to such processing. SCHOELLER-BLECKMANN OILFIELD
EQUIPMENT Aktiengesellschaft uses external service providers such as
notaries, lawyers, banks, counting service providers and IT service
providers for the purposes of organizing the Annual General Meeting and
dividend clearing. They receive from SCHOELLER-BLECKMANN OILFIELD
EQUIPMENT Aktiengesellschaft only such personal data as are necessary for
the execution of the commissioned service and process the data only in
accordance with the instructions of SCHOELLER-BLECKMANN OILFIELD EQUIPMENT
Aktiengesellschaft. Where legally necessary, SCHOELLER-BLECKMANN OILFIELD
EQUIPMENT Aktiengesellschaft has concluded a data processing agreement
with these service providers.
If a shareholder participates in the Annual General Meeting, all
shareholders or proxies present, the members of the Executive Board and
Supervisory Board, the notary and all other persons with a legal right to
participate may inspect the legally mandatory list of participants
(Section 117 AktG) and thus also inspect the personal data specified
therein (including name, place of residence, shareholding relationship).
Furthermore, SCHOELLER-BLECKMANN OILFIELD EQUIPMENT Aktiengesellschaft is
required by law to submit personal shareholder data (in particular the
list of participants) as part of the notarial protocol to the Commercial
Register (Firmenbuch) (Section 120 AktG).
Shareholders‘ data will be anonymized or deleted as soon as they are no
longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or
processed, unless other legal obligations require further storage.
Evidence and storage obligations derive in particular from commercial,
stock and takeover legislation, from fiscal and tax legislation and from
anti money laundering regulations. If legal claims are made by
shareholders against SCHOELLER-BLECKMANN OILFIELD EQUIPMENT
Aktiengesellschaft or vice versa by SCHOELLER-BLECKMANN OILFIELD EQUIPMENT
Aktiengesellschaft against shareholders, the storage of personal data
serves to clarify and enforce claims in individual cases. This may lead to
the storage of data in the context of civil court proceedings for the
duration of the limitation period plus the duration of the court
proceedings up to their legally binding termination.
Each shareholder has a right of access, rectification, restriction,
objection, and erasure at any time with regard to the processing of
personal data, as well as a right to data portability in accordance with
Chapter III of the GDPR. Shareholders may exercise these rights against
