   risk management. The Supervisory Board is very pleased to appoint
   Mr. Gerhard Hanke, who brings many years of experience, as Deputy Chairman
   of the Managing Board. This not only ensures that our Chairman of the
   Managing Board, Heimo Scheuch, receives strong and sustained support from
   within the Board, but also that we are well prepared for all contingencies
   and can maintain continuity within the leadership team.”

   The responsibilities of CFO Dagmar Steinert and COO Region West Harald
   Schwarzmayr remain unaffected.

   2025. As an experienced expert in industry and finance, he has
