Executive Board

The Executive Body (“EB”) is a collective or sole management body of a Limited Liability Company (“LLC”) which is part of an organizational structure along the General Meeting of Participants (“GM”) and Supervisory Body (“SB”) (if established). The EB is accountable to the GM and the SB (if established). The collective EB shall be represented by its Direction and a sole EB acts through its General Director.

[...]

Division of Duties: The EB is responsible for the day-to-day business of the LLC. Competence of the EB consists of all matters not related to competence of the GM and the SB (if established). The EB represents the LLC without Power of Attorney (“PoA”) and may issue PoA to any third party granting rights to represent the LLC including assignable PoAs. Moreover, the sole EB is entitled to hire and dismiss employees, transfer them to other positions, enter into employment contracts, determined the remuneration system, adopt incentive measures and take disciplinary actions.

Composition: The number of the collective EB members shall be determined in the AoA and the Bylaws of the LLC where 1 member is the Chairman. The Sole EB member is titled as General Director. An EB member or the General Director can be Participant in the LLC. Meantime, the General Director may not exercise the power of the Chairman of the SB in the LLC.

Appointment/Dismissal Competence: The EB members are appointed by the GM. The procedure of their appointment, reappointment and dismissal of the EB members shall be determined in the AoA and the Bylaws of the LLC.

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