This personal data is processed to enable shareholders to exercise their rights at theAnnual General Meeting. Burgenland HoldingAktiengesellschaft obtains this personal data directlyfrom the shareholders or from the respective depositoryinstitution.

The StockCorporationAct requires the processing of the personal data of shareholders or their representatives for the participation of shareholders and their representatives in theAnnual General Meeting. The legal basis for this processing is provided byArticle 6 paragraph 1 letter c of the EU-DPR. Burgenland HoldingAktiengesellschaft uses service providers such as notaries, banks and ITfirms to organise theAnnual General Meeting. These service providers onlyreceive the personal data required for their specific services and process the data according to instructions issued byBurgenland HoldingAktiengesellschaft. Where legallyrequired, Burgenland Holding Aktiengesellschaft has concluded a data protection agreementwith the service companies. When a shareholder or his/her representative takes part in theAnnual General Meeting, all attending shareholders and their representatives, the members of the Executive Board and SupervisoryBoard, the notaryand all other authorised persons can examine the legallyrequired attendance list (Article 117 of theAustrian StockCorporationAct) and therefore also see the included personal data (among others, name, place of residence, participating interest).

The data of shareholders and their representatives is deleted or anonymised as soon as it is no longer required for the purpose for which itwas collected or processed and when further storage is not required to meet other legal obligations.Record-keeping and storage obligations arise, in particular, from commercial, stock corporation and takeover law, from taxand levylaws and from moneylaundering laws. The storage of personal data enables the clarification and enforcement of claims in individual cases when shareholders raise legal claims against Burgenland HoldingAktiengesellschaft or, conversely,when Burgenland HoldingAktiengesellschaft raises legal claims against shareholders. In connection with legal proceedings in civil courts, this can lead to the storage of data for the length of the statutory limitation period and the length of legal proceedings up to their final termination.

Shareholders and their representatives have the right, at all times, to information, rectification, restriction, objection and erasure related to the processing of personal data as well as the right to data portabilityas defined inArticle III of the EU-DPR.
