Every shareholder who may attend the Annual General Meeting may appoint an individual or a legal entity as proxy. The Company itself or a member of the management board or of the supervisory board may exercise the voting right as proxy holder only if a shareholder issued express instructions as to how to vote on the individual items on the agenda. Proxy must be granted to a certain person in text form. Every shareholder may use the forms the Company provides on its website ( www.uniqagroup.com ) at Investor Relations/Annual General Meetings. Shareholders are not obliged to use these forms.
At the request of shareholders, they may appoint Dr. Michael Knap, Vice President of Interessenverband für Anleger (IVA), at A 1130 Vienna, Feldmühlgasse 22, as independent proxy who will exercise their voting rights at the Annual General Meeting. Special forms for the grant and revocation of proxies are available on the Company's website ( www.uniqagroup.com ) at Investor Relations/Annual General Meeting. Any proxy related costs are borne by the Company. All other costs, including but not limited to bank charges for the deposit certificate or postage, must be borne by the shareholder. Furthermore, shareholders may directly contact Dr. Michael Knap at +43 664 2138740 or e mail at michael.knap@iva.or.at . Even if a proxy is granted to the independent IVA proxy holder, it must be sent to the Company as described below. The Company will provide the proxy with copies of the proxies. Any instructions on the exercise of voting rights must be issued directly to Dr. Michael Knap. Please note that Dr. Michael Knap does not accept any instructions to speak, to ask questions, to file motions or to raise objections against resolutions of the Annual General Meeting.
A shareholder's proxy must be sent to and retained by the Company. A proxy must be received by the Company no later than on 26 May 2017, 4 p.m. (last business day prior to the Annual General Meeting), in writing by surface mail at A 1029 Vienna, Untere Donaustraße 21, UNIQA Tower, Investor Relations, or by fax at +43 (0)1 8900 500 95 or e mail at anmeldung.uniqa@hauptversammlung.at (if sent by e mail, the proxy must be attached to the e mail message in text form (e.g. as pdf file)), or via SWIFT message type MT598 to GIBAATWGGMS with the reference ISIN AT0000821103.
On the day of the Annual General Meeting, the proxy may be handed over only personally upon registration for the Annual General Meeting at the venue of the meeting.

If a shareholder has granted proxy to his or her custodian bank (Section 10a AktG), the custodian bank, besides issuing a deposit certificate, need only state that proxy was granted to it.
The above provisions governing the granting of proxies apply by analogy to a revocation of proxies.
The distribution of voting cards for the Annual General Meeting starts at 9 a.m. on the day of the Annual General Meeting. Shareholders and their proxies are asked to bring an official photo ID as identification.
