Corporate Governance<br />

___It is with great attention that we follow efforts to develop a corporate governance code in<br />

Austria. At the centre of this debate is the nature of the relationship between management<br />

and shareholders. We view corporate governance as responsibility to create long-term value<br />

for our shareholders through suitable corporate structures and processes, sufficient control<br />

and transparency, an extensive flow of information, and avoidance of conflicts of interest.<br />

Our objective is to increase shareholder value and to earn a steady stream of distributable<br />

earnings so as to reach a payout ratio equal to 60% of annual profit. Our information policy<br />

is designed to provide the highest possible transparency in reporting, above and beyond the<br />

simple fulfilment of legal requirements. Our Supervisory Board and Management Board work<br />

closely together for the benefit of the Company and its shareholders. Transactions of significant<br />

importance that exceed legally prescribed limits are subject to approval by the Supervisory<br />

Board. The Management Board provides the Supervisory Board with regular, timely<br />

and extensive information on all issues affecting the planning and development of our business.<br />

The Supervisory Board has also formed a team of experts to serve both as a working group<br />

with advisory function for specific tasks and as an audit committee. During the reporting year,<br />

the Supervisory Board and Management Board held two conferences to discuss current and<br />

important subjects.<br />
