The Executive Committee consists of the four members of the above-named committee. It prepares meetings of the Supervisory Board and advises the Board of Management on matters of general policy relating to the Company’s strategic development. In urgent cases (in other words, if waiting for the Supervisory Board’s prior approval would materially prejudice the Company), the Executive Committee acts on the full Supervisory Board’s behalf. In particular, the Executive Committee prepares the Supervisory Board’s personnel decisions and is responsible for the conclusion, alteration, and termination of the employment contracts of Board of Management members. It also deals with corporate governance matters and reports to the Supervisory Board at least once a year on the status and effectiveness of, and possible ways of improving, the Company’s corporate governance.
