20

29.7 When determining to what extent the Supervisory Directors cast votes, are present or represented, no account shall be taken of Supervisory Directors who are not authorised to participate in the discussion and the decision-making process pursuant to Article 29.6.

29.8 A written statement of the chairman of the meeting of the Supervisory Board that the Management Board has adopted a resolution shall constitute proof of such resolution vis-à-vis third parties.

29.9 The Supervisory Board may adopt resolutions without holding a meeting, provided that all Supervisory Directors have consented to this manner of adopting resolutions and the votes are cast in writing or by electronic means. Articles 29.5 up to and including 29.7 shall apply by analogy to the adoption of resolutions by the Supervisory Board without holding a meeting.

30. Failing or prevention from acting of Supervisory Directors

The Company may request that the Indemnitee provides appropriate security for his repayment obligation. The Company may take out liability insurance for the benefit of Executive Officers, Supervisory Directors, former Executive Officers and former Supervisory Directors.

31.4 The Company may, by agreement or otherwise, give further implementation to Articles 31.1 up to and including 31.3.
