I. GENERAL MEETING TO BE CONDUCTED AS A VIRTUAL GENERAL MEETING WITHOUT THE PHYSICAL PRESENCE OF SHAREHOLDERS
1. The Austrian COVID-19 Act Amending Corporate Law (COVID-19-GesG) and Austrian COVID-19 Regulation Amending Corporate Law (COVID-19- GesV)
Following careful consideration, the Management Board has decided to take advantage of the new statutory regulations governing virtual general meetings in order to protect shareholders and other attendees.

In accordance with Section 1, para. 2, COVID-19-GesG, Austrian Federal Law Gazette (BGBl.) I, No. 16/2020, in the version of BGBl. I, No. 156/2020, and the COVID-19-GesV (BGBl.)

According to the Management Board's decision, this means that shareholders and their proxies (with the exception of special proxies in accordance with Section 3, para. 4, COVID-19-GesV), cannot attend the General Meeting of S IMMO AG on 24 June 2021 in person in order to protect their health.

The General Meeting will take place with the Chairman of the Supervisory Board, the members of the Management Board, the certifying notary and the four special proxies appointed by the Company present in person at the Vienna Marriott Hotel, Parkring 12a, 1010 Vienna.

Conducting the General Meeting in the form of a virtual General Meeting pursuant to the COVID-19-GesV will result in modifications to the otherwise customary procedures of the General Meeting as well as to how the shareholders exercise their rights.

Voting rights, the right to file motions, and the right to raise objections will be exercised exclusively by granting power of attorney and issuing instructions to one of the special proxies proposed by the Company in accordance with Section 3, para. 4, COVID-19-GesV.

V. APPOINTMENT OF A SPECIAL PROXY AND THE PROCEDURE TO BE FOLLOWED
Any shareholder who is eligible to attend the virtual General Meeting and has demonstrated this to the Company in accordance with the provisions of item IV in this invitation has the right to appoint a special proxy.

In accordance with Section 3, para. 4, COVID-19-GesV, only one of the special proxies can file motions, cast votes and raise objections during the virtual General Meeting of S IMMO AG on 24 June 2021, the costs of which the Company will pay.

The following individuals, who are qualified and independent from the Company, are recommended as special proxies:

Tel + 43 (0)1 535 80 08
E-Mail wilfling.simmoag@hauptversammlung.at

Each shareholder may choose one of the individuals named above as his or her special proxy and grant that person power of attorney.

Section 3, para. 4, of the COVID-19-GesV prohibits powers of attorney from being granted to a different individual.

To simplify the staging of the General Meeting, shareholders are requested to limit communication with their respectively chosen proxies to requesting the filing of motions, casting of votes and the raising of objections. By contrast, shareholders themselves may also exercise their right to information during the virtual General Meeting by means of electronic communication by sending questions directly to the Management Board via e-mail in accordance with item VI, subitem 3.

Shareholders are advised to contact their authorised special proxy in advance if the authorised special proxy is being given instructions on the filing of motions, casting of votes or raising of objections concerning one or more items on the agenda during the virtual General Meeting. During the General Meeting, communication with the proxies will be possible only via e-mail at the e-mail address provided above for each special proxy.

To verify the shareholder's identity, in particular during the General Meeting, the designated field on the form granting power of attorney must indicate the e-mail address that will be used to send questions and issue instructions to the special proxy. Furthermore, the signature of the shareholder confirms that only he or she will have access to the e-mail address provided there.

The Company has created a form for granting powers of attorney, which can be downloaded from its website at www.simmoag.at/agm from 03 June 2021 at the latest. Please read the form granting power of attorney carefully.

In your own interests, powers of attorney should be received by your proxy at the corresponding e- mail address given below no later than 4:00 p.m. on 23 June 2021:

(i) beckermann.simmoag@hauptversammlung.at

(ii) gall.simmoag@hauptversammlung.at

(iii) oberhammer.simmoag@hauptversammlung.at

(iv) wilfling.simmoag@hauptversammlung.at

This method of submission gives your chosen and authorised special proxy - not one of the other proxies - direct access to the power of attorney.

Handing the power of attorney to the special proxy in person at the meeting venue is expressly prohibited in order to maintain the special measures put in place because of COVID-19.

In addition to submitting the form to the e-mail addresses above, only the following methods of communication and addresses are available for submitting powers of attorney:

The appointment of a special proxy is only valid using the form available for download on the Company's website. The details of the power of attorney, in particular the text form and the content of the power of attorney, can be found in the power of attorney form made available to the shareholders.

When authorising another person, it must be ensured by means of an effective chain of authorisation (sub-authorisation) that one of the four special proxies is authorised to exercise voting rights, the right to file motions and the right to make objections at the General Meeting itself. In accordance with Section 3, para. 4, COVID-19-GesV, it is not possible to authorise a person other than the four special proxies to exercise these rights at the General Meeting. However, it is permitted to authorise other persons to exercise other rights, including in particular the right to request information and the right to speak.

The above provisions regarding the granting of power of attorney apply accordingly to revoking power of attorney. A form for doing so is also available on the Company's website, the use of which is mandatory if a shareholder wishes to revoke a power of attorney.

The special proxies will exercise voting rights, the right to file motions and the right to make objections only as instructed. If the proxy does not have instructions for a specific resolution, the proxy will abstain. The proxy will also abstain from resolutions for which unclear instructions were issued (e.g. FOR and AGAINST the same resolution at the same time).

Shareholders are requested to issue their instructions to their chosen proxy using the appropriate Section of the authorisation form, which will be available for download from the Company's website at www.simmoag.at/agm from 03 June 2021 at the latest.

Instructions can be issued together with the power of attorney or also at a later date. Instructions to exercise voting rights, the right to file motions and the right to make objections can be issued before or during the General Meeting until the time determined by the Chairman. Until such time, shareholders can amend instructions already issued or issue new instructions.

3. Shareholders' right to information in accordance with Section 118
At the General Meeting, upon request, each shareholder shall be provided with information regarding the Company's affairs to the extent that such information is necessary to permit a proper evaluation of the relevant item on the agenda. The right to information also extends to the Company's legal relationships to an affiliated company as well as to the position of the Group and the companies included in the consolidated financial statements.

The information may be refused if, according to reasonable business judgement, it could cause significant harm to the Company or an affiliated company or its disclosure would constitute a criminal offence.

The right to request information and the right to speak can be exercised by an e-mail sent to the e- mail address created for this purpose, fragen.simmoag@hauptversammlung.at. Please use the question form, which will be available for download from the Company's website at www.simmoag.at/agm from 03 June 2021 at the latest, and attach the completed and signed form to your e-mail.

If you send your questions or speeches without using the question form, the identity of the shareholder (name/company, date of birth/shareholder's commercial register number) must be stated and the end of the statement must be clearly identified by a reproduction of the shareholder's signature or by other means, for example by stating the name of the shareholder/company (Section 13, para. 2, AktG). To enable the Company to ascertain the shareholder's identity and consistency with the safe custody receipt, please also state your custody account number in your e-mail in such event.

If the right to request information/right to speak is exercised by a proxy, proof of power of attorney must also be provided in written or electronic form. Please note that the special proxies cannot be authorised to exercise the right to request information/right to speak.

Shareholders are asked to send their questions in advance before the General Meeting in written or electronic form by e-mail to fragen.simmoag@hauptversammlung.at in time for the Company to receive them by no later than 21 June 2021. By doing so, you will enable the Management Board to prepare their exact responses to the questions you submit and deliver them as quickly as possible.

Shareholders can also send their questions and speeches to the Company during the General Meeting, exclusively in written or electronic form by e-mail sent directly to fragen.simmoag@hauptversammlung.at. Please note that the Chairman can set appropriate time limits for questions and speeches during the General Meeting.

The requirement for exercising a shareholder's right to request information is proof of eligibility in accordance with Section IV of this invitation.

4. Motions from shareholders in the General Meeting in accordance with Section 119 AktG
Each shareholder has the right (regardless of their specific share ownership) to submit motions on any item on the agenda through his or her special proxy at the virtual General Meeting pursuant to the COVID-19-GesG and the COVID-19-GesV. Motions, however, may be submitted only to the proxy authorised by the shareholder and filed by said proxy.

The requirement for doing so is proof of eligibility to attend in accordance with item IV of this invitation and the granting of a corresponding power of attorney to the special proxy in accordance with item V of this invitation.

5. Information for shareholders regarding data processing
S IMMO AG processes the personal data of its shareholders (in particular, those as defined in Section 10a, para. 2, AktG, being the name, address, date of birth, securities account number, number of shares held by the shareholder, if applicable share category, voting card number, and, if applicable, name and date of birth of the proxy) under the applicable data protection provisions, but in particular the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Austrian Data Protection Act (DPA) in order to enable the shareholders to exercise their rights at the General Meeting.

The processing of the shareholders' personal data is mandatory in order for the shareholders and their proxies to attend at the General Meeting in accordance with the Austrian Stock Corporation Act (AktG). The legal basis for the processing is therefore Article 6 (1) c) of the GDPR.

S IMMO AG is the data controller for the processing. S IMMO AG uses external service providers, such as notaries, lawyers, special proxies, banks and IT service providers, to organise the General Meeting. These service providers only receive personal data from S IMMO AG that are necessary for the execution of the ordered service, and they process the data only in accordance with S IMMO AG's instructions. Insofar as it is legally necessary, S IMMO AG has entered into a data protection agreement with these service providers.

If a shareholder attends the virtual General Meeting, all of the proxies, members of the Management and Supervisory Boards, and the notary who are present will be able to view their name on the list of participants, which must be kept by law (Section 117 AktG), and thereby also view the personal data (including their address and share details) contained therein. S IMMO AG is also required by law to submit its shareholders' personal data (in particular the list of participants) to the Commercial Register (Firmenbuch) as part of the notarial record (Section 120 AktG).

Shareholder information will be anonymised or deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or processed, and unless other legal obligations require further storage. Legal obligations regarding documentation and data retention primarily arise from business, stock corporation and takeover laws, fiscal and tax laws, and money laundering laws. If legal claims are made by shareholders against S IMMO AG or vice versa by S IMMO AG against shareholders, the storage of personal data shall serve to clarify and enforce claims in individual cases.

In connection with legal proceedings brought before civil courts, this may lead to the storage of data during the period of limitation plus the duration of the legal proceedings until its final legal termination.

Every shareholder has the right of access, right to rectification, erasure ('right to be forgotten'), restriction of processing, and the right to object at any time regarding the processing of personal data as well as the right to data portability in accordance with Chapter III of the GDPR. Shareholders can assert these rights free of charge by contacting S IMMO AG by e-mail at media@simmoag.at or via the following contact details:

S IMMO AG
Friedrichstrasse 10, 1010 Vienna, Austria
Phone: +43 (0)1 22795-1112
Fax: +43 (0)1 22795-91112

In addition, the shareholders have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority (Data Protection Authority) in accordance with Article 77 of the GDPR.

Additional information on data protection can be found in the privacy policy on the S IMMO AG website (www.simmoag.at).
