Invitation to the 4th Annual General Meeting

in the convention room "Wolke 19",
Ares Tower, 1220 Vienna, Donau-City-Straße 11.
Dear shareholders!
The upcoming annual general meeting shall be held as an event with physical presence of all attendees.
However, the health of our shareholders has the highest priority for us. Therefore, we encourage the shareholders of Marinomed Biotech AG to grant a proxy bound by instructions to a representative of the Interessenverband für Anleger, IVA, 1130 Wien, Feldmühlgasse 22, as independent proxy holder instead of participating in the annual general meeting in person.
The management board hopes that the restrictions regarding the number of attendees effective at the annual general assembly of Marinomed Biotech AG on June 17, 2021, still allow to hold the event with physical presence of the shareholders.
The management board reserves the right to cancel - even at short notice.
The present convening of the upcoming Annual General Meeting is based on these premises.
