6 | SUSTAINABILITY REPORT 2009 | VERBUND IN BRIEF VERBUND IN BRIEF Verbund is listed in the Commercial Register as Österreichische Elektrizitätswirtschafts-AG (from May 2010: VERBUND AG); the head office is located at Am Hof 6a, 1010 Vienna, Austria. The purpose of the company is to produce, transport, trade and sell electric energy within Europe. SHAREHOLDER STRUCTURE REPUBLIC OF AUSTRIA EVN AG WIENER STADTWERKE HOLDING AG TIWAG AG FREE FLOAT 51 > 10 > 10 > 5 < 24 Verbund is Austria’s leading electricity company and one of Europe’s largest producers of hydropower. For more than six decades, it has been by far the largest producer and transporter of electric energy in Austria, covering some 40 % of Austria’s electricity demand from its own power plants. Verbund is not only one of Europe’s most profitable energy providers, it is also one of the most ecofriendly. About 90 % of the annual production comes from renewable hydropower. In 2009, we expanded our power plant park by 13 run-of-river power plants on the Bavarian part of the Inn River and now have 123 hydropower plants, three available thermal power plants, three wind farms and two photovoltaic power plants. Since the start of energy deregulation, the Verbund Group has followed a consistent course of inter- nationalisation; about one-half of its revenues is generated outside Austria, primarily in Germany and France. We are active in trading and production in some 20 countries and continue to reinforce our status as an international hydropower company. Apart from our home market of Austria, we are focused on Germany and our participating interests in France, Italy and Turkey. Our market position is boosted by subsidiaries in Croatia, Greece, Macedonia, Romania, Bulgaria, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, the Czech Republic and Hungary. We were the first foreign investor charged with building a hydropower plant in Albania. On the European wholesale market, we trade at energy exchanges and bilaterally with more than 150 partners. We are in business at electricity or certificate exchanges in Vienna, Leipzig, Paris, Amsterdam, Rome and Ljubljana. We also supply to industrial companies and distributors in Europe. %

Around 90 % of Verbund’s electricity in Austria comes from hydropower. Furthermore, Verbund is increasingly turning to electricity generated from wind power. The thermal power subsidiary supplies key supplementary energy. Verbund is one of the most expansive and successful electricity traders in Europe and operates in most EU member states. Since July 2005, Verbund has also been highly active in direct sales to Austrian end customers. To date, approximately 225,000 customers have been acquired in this segment. Verbund operates the national high-voltage grid in Austria, which is used to transport around 50 % of the total electricity consumed in Austria. With its connections to the international grid, Verbund is also a key connection point in European electricity transport. Verbund holds numerous participating interests in Austria and abroad, predominantly in its core business of energy. These successful companies are making increasing contributions to the Verbund result. VERBUND-International GmbH controls all of the Group’s foreign interests. Domestic interests have been allocated to other head companies.
