in text form pursuant to Section 110 AktG, to be accompanied by a statement 
pursuant to Section 87 para 2 AktG (see above), is mandatory. 
 
Each shareholder has the right to request information regarding Company matters 
at the General Meeting, provided that such information is necessary for the 
proper assessment of an agenda item. The duty to provide information also 
extends to legal and business relationships between the Company and Group 
companies, and to the condition of the Group and its consolidated subsidiaries. 
Such information provided must comply with the principles of diligent and 
truthful accountability. Information may be denied if, according to reasonable 
commercial judgment, it could cause significant harm to the Company or a Group 
company, or if the provision of information would violate criminal laws or 
insofar as it was continuously accessible in the form of question and answer on 
the Company's website registered in the corporate register for at least seven 
days prior to the beginning of the General Meeting. 
 
The right to information during the virtual General Meeting under Section 118 
AktG can be exercised by the shareholders themselves. 
 
Further information regarding the rights of the shareholders, in particular on 
how to submit motions for resolutions to the Company and how to provide evidence 
of the required shareholdings can be found in the document "Shareholders' Rights 
EGM 2021" which is available on the Company's website recorded with the 
corporate register at www.omv.com/general-meeting. 
 
In addition, please find further information in connection with the holding of 
the General Meeting as a virtual General Meeting, in particular on exercising 
voting rights, the right to submit motions and to raise objections as well as on 
the submission of questions in the document "Information on the organizational 
and technical requirements for participation in EGM 2021", which will be 
available by 20 August 2021, at the latest, on the Company's website recorded

Total number of shares and voting rights 
 
As of 10 August 2021, the Company's share capital is divided into 327,272,727 no 
par shares. Each share confers one vote. Shares owned by the Company do not 
confer any voting rights. Therefore, as of 10 August 2021, 327,011,401 voting 
rights can be exercised. 
 
No physical admission to the General Meeting 
 
We ask our shareholders for understanding and point out that in order to protect 
the participants of our General Meeting, neither shareholders nor guests can 
physically participate in the General Meeting. 
 
This is a necessary requirement to ensure both the required reduction in the 
number of participants in the General Meeting as well as a regulated and smooth 
procedure. 
 
Information on data protection for shareholders 
 
For the protection of our shareholders and other participants in the General 
Meeting of OMV Aktiengesellschaft (FN 93363 z) Trabrennstraße 6-8, A-1020 Vienna 
("OMV AG" or "we"), the Executive Board has decided to hold a virtual General 
Meeting based on the COVID-19-GesG and the COVID-19-GesV. The shareholders' 
voting, the right to submit motions and the right to raise objections are 
exclusively exercised by granting power of attorney and instructions to one of 
the special proxy holders proposed by the company in accordance with the 
respective provisions of the COVID-19-GesV. 
 
OMV AG processes personal data of shareholders, respectively their 
representatives (in particular the data pursuant to Section 10a para. 2 AktG, 
i.e. name, address, date of birth, number of the securities account, number of 
shares of the shareholder, type of share, if applicable, number of the voting 
card and, if applicable, name and date of birth of the proxy as well as the 
shareholders' e-mail address and their signature/company signature) on the basis 
of the applicable data protection provisions, in particular the General Data 
Protection Regulation ("GDPR") and the Data Protection Act 2018 ("DSG"), the 
applicable provisions of the AktG and the COVID-19-GesG and COVID-19-GesV, to 
enable shareholders to exercise their rights within the scope of the General 
Meeting. 
 
OMV AG is responsible for the data processing within the meaning of the GDPR. 
 
The processing of shareholders' personal data is mandatory for the participation 
of shareholders and their representatives in the General Meeting pursuant to the 
AktG. It is carried out for the purpose of conducting a General Meeting in 
compliance with applicable laws, the casting of votes by shareholders, the 
enabling of the exercise of other shareholder rights and the fulfilment of 
compliance obligations such as, in particular, recording, information and 
reporting obligations under stock corporation law. The legal basis for data 
processing under data protection law is the necessity to fulfil legal 
obligations (Art 6 para 1 lit c GDPR) or to safeguard the legitimate interests 
of OMV AG or a third party, namely in particular the holding of a proper and 
legally compliant (virtual) General Meeting (Art 6 para 1 lit f GDPR). 
 
A video recording and transmission of the entire General Meeting will be made. 
Such General Meeting will be transmitted, including the general debate and in 
particular the questions by the shareholders, via the internet by acoustic and 
optical one-way connection in real time in full (Section 3 para 4 COVID-19-GesV 
in connection with Section 102 para 4 AktG). 
 
OMV AG uses external service providers for the purpose of organising the General 
Meeting, such as notaries, lawyers and the service provider HV- 
Veranstaltungsservice GmbH specialising in the organisation of the General 
Meeting. They will receive from OMV AG only such personal data as is necessary 
for the performance of their service and process such data exclusively on the 
instructions of OMV AG. To the extent required by law, OMV AG has entered into 
data processing agreements with these service providers. 
 
If a shareholder participates in the General Meeting, all special proxy holders 
present at the General Meeting, the physically present members of the Executive 
and Supervisory Board, the physically present notary as well as all other 
present persons with a right to physically attend the General Meeting may 
examine the legally required register of participants (Section 117 AktG) and 
thus also the participating shareholders' personal data (place of residence, 
name, shareholding) specified therein. OMV AG is also legally obliged to submit 
personal shareholder data (in particular the register of participants) as part 
of the notarial minutes of the General Meeting to the Austrian Commercial 
Register (Section 120 AktG). In addition, data may be disclosed to the Vienna 
Stock Exchange, the Financial Market Authority, Oesterreichische Kontrollbank 
and the Austrian Takeover Commission in accordance with legal obligations in the 
respective case. 
 
Shareholders' data are anonymized or deleted as soon as they are no longer 
necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or processed and unless 
other legal obligations require further storage. Obligations to provide evidence 
and to keep records arise in particular from commercial and stock corporation 
law (up to 7 years), tax and fiscal law (up to 10 years) and money laundering 
regulations (in general 5 years). The aforementioned periods may be extended in 
individual cases, for example if court or administrative proceedings are 
pending. Where legal claims are made by shareholders against OMV AG or by OMV AG 
against shareholders, the storage of personal data serves to clarify and enforce 
claims in individual cases. In connection with legal proceedings before civil 
courts, this may result in data being stored for the duration of the statute of 
limitations (up to 30 years according to the Austrian Civil Code) plus the 
duration of the legal proceedings until their final conclusion. 
 
Every shareholder has a right to information, correction, limitation, objection 
and deletion at any time with regard to the processing of personal data as well 
as a right to data portability in accordance with the provisions of the GDPR. 
Shareholders can assert these rights against OMV AG via the e-mail address 
[e-mail] or via the following contact details: 
 
OMV Aktiengesellschaft 
Trabrennstraße 6-8 
1020 Vienna 
Group Data Protection Officer: Manfred Spanner, MSc. 
 
In addition, shareholders have the right to complain to the competent 
supervisory authority (in Austria: Austrian Data Protection Authority). 
 
Further information on data protection can be found in the data protection 
declaration at www.omv.com/general-meeting.
