10. Further comments:
1. The notification of voting rights is due to the merger of Z&S Zucker und
Stärke Holding AG (Z&S) as transferring company with AGRANA Zucker, Stärke und
Frucht Holding AG (ABH). Z&S directly held 48,955,088 shares, corresponding to a
relevant interest in voting rights of 78.34% (section 130 para 1 Austrian Stock
Exchange Act 2018), and a call option to purchase 800,000 AGRANA shares from
Südzucker (7.B.1.), corresponding to a relevant interest in voting rights of
1.28% (section 131 para 1 item 1 Austrian Stock Exchange Act 2018) (prior to the
effective date of the share split in a ratio of 1:4, the call option comprised
200,000 AGRANA shares), together representing 79.62% of the relevant voting
rights. This percentage of voting rights was already previously attributable to
ABH pursuant to section 133 item 4 Austrian Stock Exchange Act 2018.
2. Z&S expired with effect from 4 August 2020 (entry in the commercial
register). Z&S has therefore fallen below the reporting thresholds of 75, 50,
45, 40, 35, 30, 25, 20, 15, 10, 5 and 4%. In the course of the merger, the
shares and also the call option to purchase 800,000 AGRANA shares from Südzucker
(7.B.1.) were transferred to ABH. ABH now directly holds the voting rights from
the shares and the call option that were previously attributed to it.
3. Südzucker continues to hold 1,713,716 shares, corresponding to a relevant
interest in voting rights of 2.74% from directly held shares (section 130 para 1
Austrian Stock Exchange Act 2018), whereby these shares are not attributable
under the shareholder's agreement (point 10.5). This also includes the 800,000
shares (1.28%) for the acquisition of which Südzucker has granted Z&S (now ABH
as a result of universal succession) a call option (10.1. and 10.2.).
4. The voting rights of Südzucker and ABH are attributable to Südzucker through
the shareholding in ABH and as a party to the shareholder's agreement (see point
10.5.) (section 133 items 4, 7 Austrian Stock Exchange Act 2018) and to
Süddeutsche Zuckerrübenverwertungs-Genossenschaft eG through its shareholding in
Südzucker (section 133 item 4 Austrian Stock Exchange Act 2018). The total
relevant interest in voting rights corresponds to 82.36% (sections 130, 131
Austrian Stock Exchange Act 2018). The call option (points 10.1 and 10.2.)
relates to AGRANA shares directly held by Südzucker. The shares subject to the
call option are therefore double-counted in the total relevant interest in
voting rights of 82.36%. The adjusted total interest in voting rights is 81.08%.
5. There is a shareholder's agreement between Südzucker and Zucker-
Beteiligungsgesellschaft m.b.H. (ZBG). RAIFFEISEN-HOLDING NIEDERÖSTERREICH-WIEN
registrierte Genossenschaft mit beschränkter Haftung (RHO) and the companies
directly and indirectly controlled by RHO, "ALMARA" Holding GmbH (ALMARA),
Estezet Beteiligungsgesellschaft m. b.H. (Estezet), Marchfelder Zuckerfabriken
Gesellschaft m.b.H. (MZ) and LEIPNIK-LUNDENBURGER INVEST Beteiligungs
Aktiengesellschaft (LLI), have joined the shareholder's agreement as direct and
indirect shareholders of ZBG. RHO indirectly controls ZBG through LLI, which
controls MZ, and ALMARA, which controls Estezet. RHO is the sole shareholder of
"LAREDO" Beteiligungs GmbH, which directly controls LLI, and the sole
shareholder of ALMARA, which directly controls Estezet. The total relevant
interest in voting rights of RHO corresponds to 79.87% (attribution and direct
share, see 8. above); the voting rights of ABH (points 10.1 and 10.2.) are
attributed in each case (section 133 items 1, 4, 7 Austrian Stock Exchange Act
2018) and the attributed interest in voting rights pursuant to section 131
Austrian Stock Exchange Act 2018 amounts to 1.28%. The total attributable
interest in voting rights (sections 130, 131 Austrian Stock Exchange Act 2018)
in each case corresponds to 79.87%.
