The conditional capital increase is used to service the stock options granted to the employees, executive employees or members of the Management Board or Supervisory Board of the Company. The conditional capital increase shall be effected only to the extent that the beneficiaries exercise their stock options. The issuance price per share, which corresponds to the exercise price, shall amount to EUR 6.72.

The conditional capital increase shall be effected only to the extent that the beneficiaries exercise their stock options. The exercise price per option shall be equal to 100% (one hundred percent) of the fair market value per share on the date of participation of the respective beneficiary under the stock option scheme 2015 (two thousand fifteen).

The fair market value under the stock option scheme 2015 (two thousand fifteen) shall be determined as follows:

(i) if the shares are not publicly traded, the Management Board, subject to the approval of the Supervisory Board, will determine the Fair Market Value for purposes of the stock option scheme 2015 (two thousand fifteen) on the basis of an enterprise value of the Company of US$ 148,045,201 as determined by the independent third-party expert evaluator Duff & Phelps B.V. as of 31 March 2015, and taking into account any measure of value it determines to be appropriate to reflect changes in the value of the Company since 31 March 2015 in a manner consistent with the valuation principles under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code;
