of the
Annual General Meeting of
ams-OSRAM AG
on Friday, June 24, 2022 at 10.00 am Vienna time
at A-8141 Premstaetten, Tobelbader Strasse 30.

I. HOLDING OF THE GENERAL MEETING IN VIRTUAL FORM WITHOUT PHYSICAL PRESENSE OF THE SHAREHOLDERS

1. COVID-19 Act on Corporate Law (COVID-19-CorpAct) and COVID-19 Regulation on Corporate Law (COVID-19-CorpReg)

The General Meeting of ams-OSRAM AG will be held on June 24, 2022 in the form of a “virtual general meeting” pursuant to section 1 para 2 of the COVID-19-CorpAct (BGBl. I Nr. 16/2020 aab BGBl. I Nr. 246/2021) and the COVID-19-CorpReg (BGBl. II Nr. 140/2020 aab BGBl. II 609/2021). Due to the corresponding lead times for the organization of the Annual General Meeting and the uncertainties caused by the pandemic that still exist at the time of its preparation, the Management Board has decided, after careful consideration, to hold this year's Annual General Meeting without the physical presence of its shareholders. This is also supported by the Supervisory Board of the Company.

This means that shareholders cannot be physically present at the General Meeting of ams-OSRAM AG on June 24, 2022.

The virtual General Meeting will be held in the exclusive presence of the Chairman of the Supervisory Board, the Deputy Chairman of the Supervisory Board, the Chairman of the Management Board and further members of the Management Board, the attesting public notary and four independent special voting proxies, appointed by the Company, in 8141 Premstaetten, Tobelbader Strasse 30.

The holding of the Annual General Meeting as virtual general meeting pursuant to COVID-19-CorpReg leads to certain changes from face-to-face general meetings, as outlined in this Convocation and the referenced documents.

The voting right, the right to make motions and the right to raise objections can be exercised only through granting of power of attorney and issuing respective instructions to one of the special voting proxies appointed by the Company.

The information rights can be exercised directly by the shareholders also in this virtual General Meeting by way of electronic communication, i.e. in text form via e-mail exclusively to fragen.ams-osram@hauptversammlung.at, provided that the shareholders have provided a deposit confirmation pursuant to section 10a of the Austrian Stock Corporation Act (“AktG”) in time and granted power of authority to one of the special voting proxies pursuant to section 5.

According to § 8 para 1 of the Articles of Association of ams-OSRAM AG, the Supervisory Board consists of a minimum of three and a maximum of eight members elected by the General Meeting as well as the corresponding members delegated in accordance with delegated pursuant to section 110 of the Austrian Work Organisation Act (“ArbVG”).

ams-OSRAM AG is subject to section 86 para 7 AktG.

It is communicated that a contradiction in accordance with section 86 para 9 AktG was neither raised by the Shareholder Representatives nor by the Employee Representatives, therefore, an overall fulfilment of the minimum proportion requirements pursuant to section 86 para 7 AktG is applicable.

The Supervisory Board of ams-OSRAM AG currently consists of eight members elected by the General Meeting (Shareholder Representatives) and four members delegated by the Works Council (Employee Representatives) pursuant to section 110 ArbVG. The Shareholder Representatives currently consist of four women and four men. The Employee Representatives currently consist of one woman and three men. Therefore, the Company fulfils the minimum quota pursuant to section 86 para 7 AktG.

The Supervisory Board mandates of Hans Jörg Kaltenbrunner, Michael Grimm, Yen Yen Tan, Monika Henzinger, Kin Wah Loh and Brian M. Krzanich will expire at the end of the upcoming Annual General Meeting.

Out of six members to be elected, at least one woman will have to be nominated in order to again comply with the minimum proportion requirements pursuant to section 86 para 7 AktG.

4. Information rights (section 118 AktG)

Each shareholder must – upon request – be informed in the General Meeting on the matters concerning the Company, to the extent that such information is necessary to appropriately assess an item on the agenda. This information right also covers the Company’s legal relations to affiliated entities as well as the situation of the overall group and the companies consolidated in the group financial report.

The disclosure of information may be refused if, according to reasonable entrepreneurial assessment, it is likely to cause serious damage to the Company or an affiliated company or if disclosure of such information is punishable under applicable law.

As prerequisite for the exercise of information rights, shareholders have to prove their right to participate pursuant to section IV. of the convocation and the issue of a respective power of attorney to one of the special voting proxies pursuant to section V. of this convocation.

Please use the question form, which will be available on the Company’s website at ams-osram.com/general-meeting. If this question form is not used, any e-mail has to indicate the person (name/company name, date of birth/company register number of the shareholder).

6. Information for shareholders on data processing

ams-OSRAM AG processes personal data of shareholders (in particular those pursuant to section 10a para 2 Austrian Stock Corporation Act (“AktG”), i.e. name, address, date of birth, number of the securities account, number of shares of the shareholder, if applicable share class, number of the voting card, and, if applicable, name and date of birth of the authorized representative[s]) in accordance with the applicable data protection laws, in particular the European General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) and the Austrian Data Protection Act, in order to enable the shareholders to exercise their rights at the General Meeting.

The processing of the personal data of shareholders is a mandatory requirement for the attendance and participation of shareholders and their representatives at the General Meeting. The legal basis for processing is Article 6 para 1 lit. (c) GDPR.

ams-OSRAM AG is the responsible body for processing. ams-OSRAM AG makes use of several external service providers (such as for example public notaries, attorneys, banks, IT-providers, etc) for the purposes of holding of the General Meeting. These service providers of ams-OSRAM AG will only receive certain personal data from ams-OSRAM AG which are necessary for the rendering of the commissioned service and will process the data exclusively pursuant to the instructions of ams-OSRAM AG. ams-OSRAM AG has concluded respective agreements under data protection laws with these service providers to the extent legally required.

If a shareholder attends the General Meeting, all present shareholders or their representatives, the members of the Management Board and the Supervisory Board, the notary public and all other persons with a statutory right to attend the General Meeting are entitled to inspect the legally required attendance list (section 117 AktG) and, therefore, able to see the personal data contained in such list (inter alia name, residence, shareholding). Moreover, ams-OSRAM AG is required by statutory law to submit personal data of shareholders (in particular the list of attendees) as part of the notarial protocol to the company register (section 120 AktG).

The data of shareholders will be anonymized or deleted as soon as they are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or processed, and unless other legal obligations require further storage. Such statutory documentation and retention obligations are particularly resulting from commercial law, stock corporation law, takeover law, tax law as well as from anti-money laundering laws. If legal claims are asserted by shareholders against ams-OSRAM AG or by ams-OSRAM AG against shareholders, the stored personal data serves the purpose of clarifying and enforcing such claims in individual cases. In the context of legal proceedings involving civil lawsuits, this may lead to storage of personal data during the statute of limitations period plus the duration of such legal proceedings until their finally binding conclusion.

Each shareholder has a right to information, rectification, limitation, opposition and cancellation at any time regarding the processing of personal data, as well as a right to data transfer according to Chapter III of the General Data Protection Regulation.

Shareholders can assert these rights free of charge to ams-OSRAM AG via the following contact details:
