We request that shareholders contact their custodian bank and arrange for the issuance and submission of a safe custody receipt.

If you are attending the Extraordinary General Meeting as an authorised representative, please bring the power of attorney with you in addition to your official photo ID.

IV. OPTION OF APPOINTMENT OF A PROXY AND THE PROCEDURE TO BE FOLLOWED

Any shareholder who is eligible to attend the Extraordinary General Meeting and has demonstrated this to the company in accordance with the provisions of item III in this invitation has the right to appoint a proxy to attend the Extraordinary General Meeting on behalf of the shareholder and have the same rights as the shareholder being represented.

The power of attorney must be granted to a specific person (a natural or legal person) in text form (Section 13 (2) AktG), although several persons may also be appointed. A power of attorney may be granted both before as well as during the Extraordinary General Meeting. We offer the following communication channels and addresses for the submission of powers of attorney:

By post or courier: S IMMO AG
c/o HV-Veranstaltungsservice GmbH
8242 St. Lorenzen am Wechsel, Köppel 60

By fax: +43 (0)1 8900 500 - 50

The powers of attorney must be received at one of the aforementioned addresses by no later than 26 January 2024, 16:00, CEST, Vienna time unless they are handed over to the door monitors at the entrance of the Extraordinary General Meeting on the day of the Extraordinary General Meeting.

Forms for granting and revoking a power of attorney are available on the company's website at www.simmoag.at/agm. To facilitate processing, we ask that you always use the provided forms. The details of the power of attorney, in particular the text form and the content of the power of attorney, can be found in the power of attorney form made available to the shareholders.

If the shareholder has granted a power of attorney to their custodian bank (Section 10a AktG), then it is sufficient for the bank to issue a declaration to the company that it has been granted power of attorney when submitting the safe custody receipt by one of the means permitted for this.

Shareholders can also personally exercise their rights in the Extraordinary General Meeting event after having granted the power of attorney. Personal attendance at the Extraordinary General Meeting will be considered a revocation of the power of attorney.

The above provisions regarding the granting of power of attorney apply to the revocation of the power of attorney.

Independent proxy

As a special service for shareholders, a proxy from the Austrian Shareholder Association (IVA), Feldmühlgasse 22, 1130 Vienna, Austria, is available to act as an independent proxy for exercising voting rights at the Extraordinary General Meeting in accordance with instructions. IVA intends for Mr Dr Georges Leser to represent these shareholders at the Extraordinary General Meeting. A special form for granting power of attorney to Mr Dr Georges Leser is available on the company's website at www.simmoag.at/agm; this form may only be delivered to the company at one of the addresses for submitting powers of attorney specified above.

3. INFORMATION AS DEFINED BY SECTION 110, PARA. 2, SENTENCE 2 IN CONJUNCTION WITH SECTION 86, PARA. 7 AND PARA. 9, AKTG

Under agenda item 1 "Revocation of the appointment and election of members of the Supervisory Board" and any submission of a relevant nomination by shareholders in accordance with Section 110 AktG, the company makes the following disclosures:

The Supervisory Board of S IMMO AG currently consists of four members elected by the Annual General Meeting (capital representatives). Of the four capital representatives, three are men and one is a woman.

Pursuant to Section 110 ArbVG (Arbeitsverfassungsgesetz), two members – one female and one male employee – were delegated to the Supervisory Board by the works council. As the Supervisory Board will continue to consist of four members elected by the Annual General Meeting, the minimum shareholding requirement pursuant to Section 86 (7) AktG does not apply.

4. SHAREHOLDERS' RIGHT TO INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 118 AKTG

At the Extraordinary General Meeting, upon request, each shareholder shall be provided with information regarding the Company's affairs to the extent that such information is necessary to permit a proper evaluation of the relevant item on the agenda. The right to information also extends to the Company's legal and business relationships with an affiliated company as well as to the position of the Group and the companies included in the consolidated financial statements.

The information may be refused if, according to reasonable business judgement, it could cause significant harm to the Company or an affiliated company or its disclosure would constitute a criminal offence.

Requests for information should generally be made verbally at the Extraordinary General Meeting, but may also be made in writing. Questions requiring longer preparation should be submitted to the Company in text form in good time before the Extraordinary General Meeting in order to preserve the economy of the meeting.

Questions may be sent to the Company by fax to +43 (0)1 22795-91125 or by e-mail to andreas.feuerstein@simmoag.at or by post, courier service or in person to the business address AT-1100 Vienna, Wienerbergstrasse 9/7th floor, Investor Relations Department, attn. Mr Andreas Feuerstein.

5. MOTIONS FROM SHAREHOLDERS IN THE EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 119 AKTG

Each shareholder has the right (regardless of their specific share ownership) to submit motions for each item on the agenda at the Extraordinary General Meeting. If several motions have been submitted for one item on the agenda, the chairman shall determine the order of voting in accordance with section 119 (3) AktG.

However, a shareholder motion for the election of a member of the Supervisory Board requires the timely submission of a nomination in accordance with Section 110 AktG: only shareholders whose shares collectively amount to 1% of the share capital can nominate people for election to the Supervisory Board (agenda item 8). These nominations must be delivered to the company no later than 18 January 2024 (24:00, CEST, Vienna time) as described above (item V paragraph 2). According to Section 87 (2) AktG, each nomination must include a declaration by the nominated person with information on their professional qualifications, their professional or comparable roles and any circumstances which could give rise to concerns regarding impartiality.

Otherwise, the shareholder motion for the election of a member of the Supervisory Board may not be taken into account during the vote.

6. INFORMATION FOR SHAREHOLDERS REGARDING DATA PROCESSING

S IMMO AG processes the personal data of its shareholders (in particular, those defined in Section 10a, para. 2, AktG, being the name, address, date of birth, securities account number, number of shares held by the shareholder, if applicable share category, voting card number, and, if applicable, name and date of birth of the proxy) under the applicable data protection provisions, but 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 Extraordinary General Meeting.

The processing of the shareholders' personal data is mandatory for the shareholders and their proxies to attend the Extraordinary General Meeting in accordance with the Austrian Stock Corporation Act (AktG). The legal basis for the processing is therefore Article 6 (1) c) of the GDPR.

S IMMO AG is the data controller for the processing. S IMMO AG uses external service providers, such as notaries, lawyers, special proxies, banks and IT service providers, to organise the Extraordinary General Meeting. These service providers only receive personal data from S IMMO AG that are necessary for the execution of service ordered, and they process the data only in accordance with S IMMO AG's instructions. Insofar as it is legally necessary, S IMMO AG has entered into a data protection agreement with these service providers.

If a shareholder attends the Extraordinary General Meeting, all of the proxies, members of the Management and Supervisory Boards, and the notary who are present will be able to view their name on the list of participants, which must be kept by law (Section 117 AktG), and will thereby also view the personal data (including their address and share details) contained therein. S IMMO AG is also required by law to submit its shareholders' personal data (in particular the list of participants) to the Commercial Register (Firmenbuch) as part of the notarial record (Section 120 AktG).

Shareholder information will be anonymised or deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or processed, and unless other legal obligations require further storage. Legal obligations regarding documentation and data retention primarily arise from business, stock corporation and takeover laws, fiscal and tax laws, and money laundering laws. If legal claims are made by shareholders against S IMMO AG or vice versa by S IMMO AG against shareholders, the storage of personal data shall serve to clarify and enforce claims in individual cases. In connection with legal proceedings brought before civil courts, this may lead to the storage of data during the period of limitation plus the duration of the legal proceedings until its final legal termination.

Every shareholder has the right of access, right to rectification, restriction of processing, right of erasure, and the right to object at any time regarding the processing of personal data as well as the right to data portability in accordance with Chapter III of the GDPR. Shareholders can assert these rights free of charge by contacting S IMMO AG by e-mail at media@simmoag.at or via the following contact details:

S IMMO AG
Wienerbergstrasse 9/7th floor, 1100 Vienna, Austria
Phone: +43 (0)1 22795-1112
Fax: +43 (0)1 22795-91112

In addition, the shareholders have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority (Data Protection Authority) in accordance with Article 77 of the GDPR.

Additional information on data protection can be found in the privacy policy on the S IMMO AG website www.simmoag.at.
