Information on data protection for shareholders

Warimpex Finanz- und Beteiligungs Aktiengesellschaft processes personal data of shareholders(in particular those pursuant to section 10a para 2 Austrian Stock Corporation Act, i.e. name, address, date of birth, number of the securities account, number of shares of the shareholder, type of share if applicable, number of the voting card and, if applicable, name and date of birth of the proxy holder) on the basis of the applicable data protection provisions, in particular the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Austrian Data Protection Act, in order to enable shareholders to exercise their rights at the Annual General Meeting.

The processing of shareholders' personal data is mandatory for the participation of shareholders and their representatives in the Annual General Meeting pursuant to the Austrian Stock Corporation Act. The legal basis for the processing is therefore Article 6 para 1 subpara c) GDPR, in particular in connection with the stock corporation law provisions mentioned below.

Warimpex Finanz- und Beteiligungs Aktiengesellschaft is responsible for the processing as the data controller. For the purpose of organizing the Annual General Meeting, the Company makes use of external service providers such as notaries, lawyers, banks and IT service providers. These will only receive such personal data from the Company as is necessary for the performance of the service commissioned. Insofar as they act as contract processors, they process the data exclusively in accordance with the Company's instructions. To the extent that this is legally necessary, the Company has concluded a data protection agreement with these service providers.

If a shareholder participates in the Annual General Meeting personally, all shareholders present or their representatives, the members of the management board and supervisory board, the notary and all other persons with a legal right to participate may inspect the statutorily prescribed list of participants (section 117 Austrian Stock Corporation Act) and thereby also inspect the personal data stated therein (including name, place of residence, shareholding). Moreover, the Company is under a legal obligation to submit personal shareholder data (in particular the list of participants) to the Commercial Register as part of the notarial record (section 120 Austrian Stock Corporation Act).

Shareholders' data will be anonymized or erased as soon as they are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or processed, and unless other legal obligations require further storage. Obligations to provide evidence and to retain records arise in particular from corporate, stock corporation and takeover law, tax law and money laundering regulations. If legal claims are raised by shareholders against the Company or vice versa by the Company against shareholders, the storage of personal data serves to clarify and enforce claims in individual cases. In connection with court proceedings before civil courts, this may lead to the storage of data for the duration of the statute of limitations plus the duration of the court proceedings up to its completion with final effect.

Every shareholder has a right to access, rectification, restriction, objection and erasure with regard to the processing of personal data and a right to data portability in accordance with Chapter III of the GDPR. Shareholders may exercise these rights vis-à-vis the Company free of charge via the e-mail address daniel.folian@warimpex.com or via the following contact details:

Warimpex Finanz- und Beteiligungs Aktiengesellschaft

Attn. Dr. Daniel Folian

Floridsdorfer Hauptstraße 1

1210 Vienna

Moreover, shareholders have the right to file a complaint with the competent supervisory authority pursuant to Article 77 GDPR; in Austria, this is the Data Protection Authority (DSB).

Further information on data protection can be found in the data protection declaration on the Company's website (www.warimpex.com) under "Data protection".
