1. Summary
The decision on changes to the composition of the supervisory board is adopted by the stockholders' meeting. The number of members of the supervisory board may not exceed the number specified in the articles of association. The supervisory board is appointed for a term of five years, unless the articles of association provide for a different, shorter term. A member of the supervisory board is deemed appointed as of the moment the decision of the stockholders' meeting is adopted, unless the decision provides for a later effective date of appointment.
Please note that, in accordance with the Commercial Law, shareholders or stockholders have the right to participate in and vote at a meeting remotely or to vote prior to the meeting. For more information, see the section Explanation of remote participation in meetings of shareholders, stockholders and members.
