Of the 74,101,409 shares (approx. 62.68%) listed in section 7A, which are
held by the legal entities listed in section 3 in total, only 57,000,002
shares (approx. 48.21%) are syndicated and therefore mutually attributable
pursuant to Section 133 no. 1 BörseG. The remaining 17,101,407 shares
(approx. 14.47%) are not syndicated and are therefore not mutually
attributable pursuant to Section 133 no. 1 BörseG.

 

On 21 March 2024, the issuer increased the share capital from 102,600,000
to 118,221,982 shares/voting rights. The following legal entities each
exceeded the following thresholds through the direct/indirect acquisition
(Section 130 BörseG 2018) of new shares/voting rights in the capital
increase:

– Hans Peter Haselsteiner and Haselsteiner Familien-Privatstiftung – 30%;

– RAIFFEISEN-HOLDING NIEDERÖSTERREICH-WIEN reg. Gen.m.b.H. – 15%;

– UNIQA Österreich Versicherungen AG – 15%.

 

The voting rights are (i) including attributed voting rights (Section 130
and Section 133 no. 1 and no. 4 BörseG 2018) and (ii) added together with
the voting rights from financial instruments (B.1) (right of first
refusal) (Section 131 para. 1 BörseG 2018) – in each case number of voting
rights and %:

– Hans Peter Haselsteiner (i) 64,841,191/ approx. 54.85%; (ii) 93,341,192/
approx. 78.95%;

– Haselsteiner Familien-Privatstiftung (i) 64,771,816/ approx. 54.79%;
(ii) 93,271,817/ approx. 78.90%;

– Klemens Peter Haselsteiner (i) 57,001,502/ approx. 48.22% – below the
threshold of 50%; (ii) 85,501,503/ approx. 72.32% – below the threshold of
75%;

– RAIFFEISEN-HOLDING NIEDERÖSTERREICH-WIEN reg. Gen.m.b.H. (i) 60,905,641/
approx. 51.52%; (ii) 89,405,642/ approx. 75.63%;

– BLR-Baubeteiligungs GmbH. (i) 58,821,786/ approx. 49.76% – below the
threshold of 50%; (ii) 87,321,787/ approx. 73.86% – below the threshold of
75%;

– UNIQA Insurance Group AG (i) 62,353,081/ approx. 52.74%; (ii)
90,853,082/ approx. 76.85%;

– UNIQA Beteiligungs-Holding GmbH and UNIQA Österreich Versicherungen AG
(i) 62,347,566/ approx. 52.74%; (ii) 90,847,567/ approx. 76.84%;

– UNIQA Erwerb von Beteiligungen Gesellschaft m.b.H. (i) 57,342,487/
approx. 48.50% – below the threshold of 50%; (ii) 85,842,488/ approx.
72.61% – below the threshold of 75%.

 

The attributed voting rights of approx. 24.11% on the basis of the right
of first refusal (B.1) fall below the threshold of 25% (Sections 130 in
conjunction with 131 para. 1 BörseG 2018): The core shareholders syndicate
that has existed since 23 April 2007 ended at the end of 31 December 2022.
Despite the termination of the core shareholders syndicate, the right of
first refusal of the legal entities named in section 8. no. 1 to 3 and the
right of first refusal of the legal entities named in section 8. under no.
4 to 9 remain in place as long as they each hold at least 8.5% of the
share capital of the issuer. MKAO Rasperia Trading Limited is subject to
Council Regulation (EU) No 269/2014 of 17 March 2014 concerning
restrictive measures in respect of actions undermining or threatening the
territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence of Ukraine, as
amended/supplemented (EU Sanctions Regulation). Accordingly, MKAO Rasperia
Trading Limited is not authorised to sell the shares it holds in the
issuer and therefore the right of first refusal does not apply for the
duration of the EU Sanctions Regulation, unless the sanctions authority
approves the sale of these shares by MKAO Rasperia Trading Limited. The
legal entities mentioned under section 3. have formed a syndicate without
MKAO Rasperia Trading Limited.
