creditshelf: Management board continuity - Co-founders confirmed in office until end of 2023 
  . Management Board contracts with co-founders Dr. Tim Thabe and Dr. Daniel Bartsch extended until end of 2023 
  . Dr. Mark Währisch decides of his own accord not to prolong his contract 
  . Strengthening of second-tier management over the past 24 months is the basis for growth and further enhancement of 
    the creditshelf platform 
Frankfurt am Main, March 23, 2021 ? In today's meeting, creditshelf Aktiengesellschaft's Supervisory Board extended the 
Management Board contracts for the company's two co-founders until December 31, 2023. Dr. Tim Thabe and Dr. Daniel 
Bartsch will continue to lead the company as the Management Board with the support of the strong second-tier management 
team. Dr. Mark Währisch of his own accord will not prolong his management board contract and will leave the company on 
April 30, 2021. 
The division of responsibilities on the Management Board, which will comprise two people going forward, will not change 
in principle: As in the past, Dr. Tim Thabe will act as the CEO and Dr. Daniel Bartsch as the COO. The two founders 
will be assisted by creditshelf's experienced second-tier management team, which focuses on technology, finance, 
product development, and marketing. As a result, the company considers itself to be well-positioned for further 
sustainable growth. 
After five years at creditshelf, Dr. Mark Währisch has decided not to prolong his Management Board contract any further 
and will leave the company when his current contract expires at the end of April. Dr. Währisch had been creditshelf's 
Chief Risk Officer and a Management Board member since May 2016 and made a significant contribution to the company's 
successful development. Among other things, he played a leading role in the development of the technology-driven risk 
analysis system and was one of the people responsible for creditshelf's successful IPO in July 2018. 
Rolf Elgeti, creditshelf's Supervisory Board Chairman, commented on the contract extensions as follows: I am delighted 
that the company's two co-founders, Dr. Tim Thabe and Dr. Daniel Bartsch, are remaining on board in the coming years. 
Not only is this what the Supervisory Board wanted, but it also sends an important signal to shareholders, partners, 
and staff. The two co-founders' passion for and commitment to their company have been a key factor in its success to 
date, and are the foundations for its successful future. At the same time, I would like thank Dr. Mark Währisch for his 
outstanding work and wish him all the best for the future." 
Dr. Tim Thabe, CEO of creditshelf, said: "I would like to thank the Supervisory Board for its vote of confidence and 
welcome the chance to continue working with my Management Board colleague Daniel Bartsch and the entire team on 
state-of-the-art, digital SME financing. My personal thanks go to Mark Währisch: We can be proud of our achievements to 
date and much would not have been possible without your hard work, expertise, and creativity." 
"The Management Board has consolidated and enhanced creditshelf's structures in recent years," added COO Dr. Daniel 
Bartsch. "The challenge now is to leverage the opportunities offered by the digital SME financing market and to 
maintain our existing growth trajectory. As the company's co-founders, we are delighted that we can actively continue 
shaping its development."
