2. Resolution proposals from shareholders on the agenda in accordance with sec. 110 AktG

Shareholders whose shares together amount to 1% of the share capital may submit proposals for resolutions on any item on the agenda in text form, together with a statement of reasons, and may request that these proposals, together with the names of the shareholders concerned, the statement of reasons to be included and any statement by the Management Board or Supervisory Board, be made available on the Company's website entered in the commercial register, provided that this request is submitted in text form no later than by June 5, 2024 (24:00 Vienna time) to the Company either via mail to ams‑OSRAM AG, att.

3. Disclosures pursuant to sec. 110 (2) sentence 2 AktG

The Company provides the following information on agenda item 6 "Elections to the Supervisory Board" and the possible submission of a corresponding election proposal by shareholders in accordance with sec. 110 AktG:

In accordance with sec. 8 (1) of the Articles of Association of ams-OSRAM AG, the Supervisory Board consists of at least three and no more than eight members elected by the Annual General Meeting and the members delegated in accordance with sec. 110 (1) of the Austrian Labor Constitution Act.

sec. 86 (7) AktG is applicable to ams-OSRAM AG.

It is announced that an objection pursuant to § 86 para 9 AktG was raised neither by the majority of the shareholder representatives nor by the majority of the employee representatives and therefore the minimum share offer pursuant to § 86 para 7 AktG is not fulfilled separately, but in its entirety.

The Supervisory Board of ams-OSRAM AG currently consists of eight members elected by the Annual General Meeting (shareholder representatives) and four members delegated by the Works Council in accordance with sec. 110 of the Austrian Labor Constitution Act (ArbVG) (employee representatives). The eight shareholder representatives are currently made up of four women and four men. The employee representatives delegated by the Works Council are currently one woman and three men. The minimum quota requirement pursuant to sec. 86 (7) AktG has therefore been met to date.

If shareholders submit nominations for election under agenda item 6 "Elections to the Supervisory Board", it must be ensured that, if the nominations are accepted, the Supervisory Board will include at least four women.

The Supervisory Board mandates of Dr. Margarete Haase and Brigitte Ederer will expire at the end of the upcoming Annual General Meeting.

At least one woman out of two persons would have to be proposed in order to comply with the minimum shareholding requirement pursuant to § 86 (7) AktG.

4. Shareholders' right to information in accordance with sec. 118 AktG

Upon request, each shareholder must be provided with information on the Company's affairs at the Annual General Meeting, insofar as this is necessary for the proper assessment of an item on the agenda. The duty to provide information also extends to the Company's legal relationships with an affiliated Company and to the situation of the Group and the companies included in the consolidated financial statements.

The information may be refused if, according to reasonable business judgment, it is likely to cause a significant disadvantage to the Company or an affiliated Company, or if providing it would be punishable by law.

In accordance with sec. 19 (2) of the Articles of Association, the Chairman of the Annual General Meeting may impose reasonable time limits on shareholders' rights to speak and ask questions. In particular, she may impose general and individual restrictions on speaking and questioning time at the beginning, but also during the Annual General Meeting.

Requests for information must always be made verbally at the Annual General Meeting, but can also be made in writing.

Questions that require longer preparation to answer should be submitted to the Management Board in text form in good time before the Annual General Meeting to ensure that the meeting is held efficiently. These questions can be sent to the Company by email to agm@ams-osram.com.

5. Motions by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting in accordance with sec. 119 AktG

Every shareholder - irrespective of a specific shareholding - is entitled to submit motions on any item on the agenda at the Annual General Meeting. If several motions are submitted for an item on the agenda, the chairperson shall determine the order of voting in accordance with sec. 119 (3) AktG.

However, a shareholder motion on agenda item 6 "Elections to the Supervisory Board" requires the timely submission of a resolution proposal in accordance with sec. 110 AktG: Persons may be proposed for election to the Supervisory Board by shareholders whose shares together amount to 1% of the share capital. Such nominations must be received by the Company in the above-mentioned manner by June 5, 2024 at the latest. Each nomination must be accompanied by a declaration pursuant to sec. 87 para 2 AktG from the proposed person regarding their professional qualifications, their professional or comparable functions and any circumstances that could give rise to concerns of bias. Otherwise, the shareholder proposal for the election of a Supervisory Board member may not be considered in the vote.

With regard to the information pursuant to sec. 110 para 2 sentence 2 AktG, reference is made to item V. para 3. of the convening notice.

6. Information for shareholders on data processing

ams-OSRAM AG processes shareholders' personal data (in particular those pursuant to sec. 10a (2) AktG, i.e. name, address, date of birth, securities account number, number of shares held by the shareholder, class of shares if applicable, voting card number and, if applicable, name and date of birth of the proxy or proxies) on the basis of the applicable data protection regulations, in particular the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Austrian Data Protection Act, in order to enable shareholders to exercise their rights at the Annual General Meeting.

The processing of shareholders' personal data is mandatory for the participation of shareholders and their representatives in the Annual General Meeting in accordance with the German Stock Corporation Act. The legal basis for the processing is therefore Art. 6 (1) c) GDPR.

ams-OSRAM AG is the controller responsible for the processing. ams-OSRAM AG uses external service providers such as notaries, lawyers, banks and IT service providers for the purpose of organizing the Annual General Meeting. These companies receive from ams-OSRAM AG only such personal data as is necessary for the performance of the commissioned service and process the data exclusively in accordance with the instructions of ams-OSRAM AG. Where legally required, ams-OSRAM AG has concluded a data protection agreement with these service providers.

If a shareholder participates in the Annual General Meeting, all shareholders present or their representatives, the members of the Management Board and Supervisory Board, the notary and all other persons with a legal right to participate may inspect the legally required list of participants (sec. 117 AktG) and thereby also view the personal data specified therein (including name, place of residence, shareholding). ams-OSRAM AG is also legally obliged to submit personal shareholder data (in particular the list of participants) as part of the notarial record to the commercial register (sec. 120 AktG).

Shareholders' data is anonymized or deleted as soon as it is no longer required for the purposes for which it was collected or processed and unless other legal obligations require further storage. Obligations of proof and retention arise in particular from corporate, stock corporation and takeover law, from tax and duty law and from money laundering regulations. If legal claims are asserted by shareholders against ams-OSRAM AG or by ams-OSRAM AG against shareholders, the storage of personal data serves to clarify and enforce claims in individual cases. In connection with legal proceedings before civil courts, this may lead to the storage of data for the duration of the statute of limitations plus the duration of the legal proceedings until their legally binding conclusion.

Every shareholder has a right of access, rectification, restriction, objection and erasure regarding the processing of personal data at any time, as well as a right to data portability in accordance with Chapter III of the GDPR.

Shareholders can assert these rights against ams-OSRAM AG free of charge using the following contact details:

Shareholders also have the right to lodge a complaint with the data protection supervisory authority in accordance with Article 77 GDPR. Further information on data protection can be found in the privacy policy on the website of ams-OSRAM AG at ams-osram.com/privacy-policy.
