Dismissal of a member of the Executive Board of a stock corporation

The Supervisory Board may revoke the appointment of a member of the Executive Board and the appointment to Chairperson of the Executive Board if there is a good cause.

Good causes are in particular:

• Gross breach of duty
• Inability to manage the business properly
• Withdrawal of confidence by the general meeting, unless the confidence was withdrawn for obviously improper reasons
