The proposed amount for Alfred Francois Brausch, who acted as chairman since the annual general meeting held in 2025, is 25,000 Euros per annum. The proposed amount for Thilo Wendenburg is 20,000 Euros per annum. The proposed amount for Stefan Kreuzkamp is 10,000 Euros per annum. The proposed amounts remain unchanged from the amounts approved in the previous annual general meeting of Shareholders.
