This means that, in accordance with the resolution of the Management Board, shareholders and their representatives (with the exception of the special proxies as defined in Section 3 (4) COVID-19-GesV) cannot be physically present at the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting of Mayr-Melnhof Karton Aktiengesellschaft on April 28th, 2021.
The virtual Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting will be held in the physical presence of the Chairman of the Supervisory Board, the Chairman of the Management Board and the other members of the Management Board, the certifying public notary and the four special proxies nominated by the Company in the Wiener Börsensäle, 1010 Vienna, Wipplingerstraße 34.
Holding the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting as a virtual Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting in accordance with COVID-19-GesV will result in modifications to the proceedings of the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting as well as to how shareholders' rights are exercised.
Voting rights, the right to submit motions for resolutions and the right to object will be exercised exclusively by one of the special proxies proposed by the Company in accordance with Section 3 (4) COVID-19-GesV.
The right to information can be exercised in the virtual Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting by the shareholders themselves by way of electronic communication, namely by submitting questions in text form exclusively by e-mail directly to the Company's e-mail address fragen.mm@hauptversammlung.at [fragen.mm@hauptversammlung.at], provided that the shareholders have submitted a safe custody receipt as defined in Section 10a AktG in due time in accordance with section IV and have authorized a special proxy in accordance with section V.
2. Transmission of the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting via the Internet The Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting will be broadcast in full acoustically and visually in real time on the Internet in accordance with Section 3 (1), (2) and (4) COVID-19-GesV in conjunction with Section 102 (4) AktG.
This is permissible under data protection legislation having regard to the legal basis provided by Section 3 (1), (2) and (4) COVID-19-GesV.
All shareholders of the Company can participate in the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting on April 28th, 2021, starting at approximately 10:00 am, CEST, using suitable technical means (e.g. computer, laptop, tablet or smartphone, as well as an Internet connection with sufficient bandwidth for streaming videos) over the Internet at www.mayr-melnhof.com/en/ http://www.mayr-melnhof.com/en/ as a virtual shareholders' meeting. No registration or login is required to follow the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting.
Broadcasting the Company's virtual Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting over the Internet gives all shareholders the opportunity to follow the proceedings of the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting, and in particular the presentation by the Management Board, the replies to shareholders' questions, and the voting procedure in real time through this one-way audio and visual link.
It should be noted that this live transmission as a virtual Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting does not allow remote participation (Section 102(3)(2) AktG) or remote voting (Section 102(3)(3) AktG and Section 126 AktG) and that the transmission over the Internet is not a two-way communication. The individual shareholder can therefore only follow the course of the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting.
It should also be noted that the Company is only responsible for the use of technical communications equipment to the extent that this can be attributed to its area of responsibility (Section 2 (6) COVID-19-GesV).
For the rest, reference is made to the information on the organizational and technical requirements for participation in accordance with Section 3 (3) in conjunction with Section 2 (4) COVID-19-GesV ("Participation Information").

The legal basis for such processing is Article 6 (1) c) of the GDPR. The processing of shareholders' personal data is essential for shareholders and their representatives to participate in the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting and to hold it in accordance with the Austrian Stock Corporation Act, as it is not possible to participate and exercise rights properly without the provision of data. Mayr-Melnhof Karton Aktiengesellschaft employs external service businesses such as notaries, attorneys, banks and IT service providers in order to hold the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting. They only receive such personal data from Mayr- Melnhof Karton Aktiengesellschaft that are necessary for them to perform the service they are commissioned to provide.

Mayr-Melnhof Karton Aktiengesellschaft is also legally obliged to submit personal data of shareholders (in particular the attendance list) to the commercial register as part of the notarial record (Section 120 AktG). Shareholder data are anonymized or erased as soon as they are no longer required for the purpose for which they were collected or processed unless other legal obligations require their further storage. Legal obligations to provide documentary proof and retain data arise in particular in connection with company, stock corporation and takeover legislation, tax and fiscal legislation and money-laundering provisions. In the context of clarifying and asserting claims, and possible in connection with legal proceedings, it may in individual cases be necessary to store data for the duration of the limitation period plus the time until the legal proceedings have been finally concluded.
Every shareholder has a right to information, rectification, restriction, objection and erasure at all times with regard the processing of personal data and also has a right to data portability in accordance with Chapter III GDPR.
Shareholders may assert these rights against Mayr-Melnhof Karton Aktiengesellschaft at no charge via the e-mail address datenschutz@mayr- melnhof.com [datenschutz@mayr-melnhof.com] or via the following contact details of the Data Protection Officer: Dr. Thomas Balzer c/o Mayr-Melnhof Karton Aktiengesellschaft Fax: +43 (0)1 501 36 - 91016 In addition, shareholders have a right to lodge a complaint with the data protection supervisory authority in accordance with Article 77 GDPR.
