Shareholders' Meeting. 
 
The Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting of Mayr-Melnhof Karton Aktiengesellschaft on 
April 28th, 2021, will be held as a virtual Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting in 
accordance with Section 1 (2) COVID-19-GesG, Federal Law Gazette I No. 16/2020 
as amended by Federal Law Gazette I No. 156/2020 and COVID-19-GesV (Federal Law 
Gazette II No. 140/2020 as amended by Federal Law Gazette II No. 616/2020), 
taking into account the interests of both the Company and the participants. 
 
This means that, in accordance with the resolution of the Management Board, 
shareholders and their representatives (with the exception of the special 
proxies as defined in Section 3 (4) COVID-19-GesV) cannot be physically present 
at the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting of Mayr-Melnhof Karton Aktiengesellschaft 
on April 28th, 2021. 
 
The virtual Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting will be held in the physical presence 
of the Chairman of the Supervisory Board, the Chairman of the Management Board 
and the other members of the Management Board, the certifying public notary and 
the four special proxies nominated by the Company in the Wiener Börsensäle, 1010 
Vienna, Wipplingerstraße 34. 
 
Holding the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting as a virtual Ordinary Shareholders' 
Meeting in accordance with COVID-19-GesV will result in modifications to the 
proceedings of the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting as well as to how 
shareholders' rights are exercised. 
 
Voting rights, the right to submit motions for resolutions and the right to 
object will be exercised exclusively by one of the special proxies proposed by 
the Company in accordance with Section 3 (4) COVID-19-GesV. 
 
The right to information can be exercised in the virtual Ordinary Shareholders' 
Meeting by the shareholders themselves by way of electronic communication, 
namely by submitting questions in text form exclusively by e-mail directly to 
the Company's e-mail address fragen.mm@hauptversammlung.at 
[fragen.mm@hauptversammlung.at], provided that the shareholders have submitted a 
safe custody receipt as defined in Section 10a AktG in due time in accordance 
with section IV and have authorized a special proxy in accordance with section 
V. 
 
2. Transmission of the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting via the Internet 
The Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting will be broadcast in full acoustically and 
visually in real time on the Internet in accordance with Section 3 (1), (2) and 
(4) COVID-19-GesV in conjunction with Section 102 (4) AktG. 
 
This is permissible under data protection legislation having regard to the legal 
basis provided by Section 3 (1), (2) and (4) COVID-19-GesV. 
 
All shareholders of the Company can participate in the Ordinary Shareholders' 
Meeting on April 28th, 2021, starting at approximately 10:00 am, CEST, using 
suitable technical means (e.g. computer, laptop, tablet or smartphone, as well 
as an Internet connection with sufficient bandwidth for streaming videos) over 
the Internet at www.mayr-melnhof.com/en/ [http://www.mayr-melnhof.com/en/] as a 
virtual shareholders' meeting. No registration or login is required to follow 
the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting. 
 
Broadcasting the Company's virtual Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting over the 
Internet gives all shareholders the opportunity to follow the proceedings of the 
Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting, and in particular the presentation by the 
Management Board, the replies to shareholders' questions, and the voting 
procedure in real time through this one-way audio and visual link. 
 
It should be noted that this live transmission as a virtual Ordinary 
Shareholders' Meeting does not allow remote participation (Section 102(3)(2) 
AktG) or remote voting (Section 102(3)(3) AktG and Section 126 AktG) and that

its area of responsibility (Section 2 (6) COVID-19-GesV).
