Executive Board

The Executive Board (“EB”) is a collective or sole body which is part of an organizational structure alongside with General Meeting of Shareholders (“GM”) and the Board of Directors (“BoD”).  The collective EB is represented by its Direction and the sole EB acts through its General Director.

[...]

Division of Duties: The EB is responsible for the day-to-day business of the Company. The competence of the EB consists of all matters not related to competence of the GM and BoD. Decisions of the EB shall be executed via Minutes to be signed by all the EB members at the EB Meeting. An EB member shall not transfer its right to vote to another person, including another EB member. The EB is obliged to execute decisions of the GM and the BoD.

Composition: The employees of the Company who are not Shareholders can act as EB members. The number and quantitative composition of the EB members shall be defined by the BoD.

Appointment/Dismissal Competence: The EB members shall be appointed by the BoD. The term of offices shall be fixed by the BoD. The BoD is entitled to early terminate the term. The procedure for appointment, reappointment and dismissal of the EB shall be provided in the AoA and Bylaws of the Company.

Alternates: In case of absence, the BoD may appoint an authorized person to perform the duties of the absent EB member.
