Committees of the Supervisory Board

Depending on the specifics of the enterprise and the number of its members, the Supervisory Board has formed committees with sufficient expertise. They serve to increase the efficiency of the Supervisory Board's work and the handling of complex issues. The respective committee chairmen report regularly to the Supervisory Board on the work of the committees.

The Supervisory Board has set up a Personnel Committee, a Finance and Investment Committee, an Audit Committee, a Nomination Committee and an Arbitration Committee. The duties and members of the committees are specified below.

Personnel Committee

The Personnel Committee decides on the employment agreements of the Management Board members put forward by the Supervisory Board, on the determination of their annual salaries and on the granting of loans to the Management Board members. The committee meets when necessary.

Members:

  • Lutz Feldmann (Chairman)
  • Achim Binder
  • Stefan Paul Hamm
  • Dietrich Herd
  • Edith Sitzmann
  • Lothar Wölfle

Finance and Investment Committee

The Finance and Investment Committee is responsible for preparing investment decisions. If, in urgent cases, it is not possible to convene a Supervisory Board meeting with the required quorum, investment decisions are referred for decision to the committee. The committee also prepares the Supervisory Board meetings on annual planning. In this respect, the committee has no decision-making powers. The committee meets when necessary.

The Audit Committee is responsible for questions relating to reporting, risk management, compliance, and the required independence of the auditor. The committee decides in place of the Supervisory Board on the appointment of the auditor, determines the audit focus, and handles the agreement on the auditor's fee. The committee also prepares the Supervisory Board meeting on the financial statement (balance sheet meeting). In this respect, the committee has no decision-making powers. It meets when necessary. The chairman of the Audit Committee possesses special knowledge and experience of the application of accounting principles and internal auditing procedures. The Audit Committee may not be chaired by the Chairman of the Supervisory Board or a former member of the Management Board of the company.

Members:

  • Gunda Röstel (Chairwoman)
  • Stefanie Bürkle
  • Volker Hüsgen
  • Thomas Landsbek
  • Dr. Hubert Lienhard
  • Dr. Wolf-Rüdiger Michel

Nomination Committee

The Nomination Committee has the task of recommending suitable candidates to the Supervisory Board for its suggestions for the Annual General Meeting regarding elections. Moreover, it passes resolutions on behalf of the shareholder representatives of the Supervisory Board persuant to Section 32 of the German Codetermination Act (MitbestG). The committee meets in the run-up to the Annual General Meeting to determine which candidates to recommend and at other times when necessary.

Members:

  • Lutz Feldmann (Chairman)
  • Dr. Dietrich Birk
  • Dr. Wolf-Rüdiger Michel
  • Gunda Röstel

Members:

  • Lutz Feldmann (Chairman)
  • Dietrich Herd
  • Thomas Landsbek
  • Edith Sitzmann

Digitalisation committee

The digitalisation committee deals with measures and projects in the area of digitalisation at the company and its affiliated entities, insofar as they have fundamental strategic significance for the development of the company and the Group. In particular, this is the case if the projects or measures result in substantial changes to an existing business model, or result in new business models, which have a high significance for the company or could develop such significance, if fundamental questions about the use of technologies arise that have or could have a material impact on the existing business (e.g. an impact assessment of digitalisation technologies) or if there is or could be a significant impact on employees and the organisation. The committee meets as required.

The members of the digitalisation committee are:

  • Dr. Hubert Lienhard (Chairman)
  • Michaela Kräutter
  • Marika Lulay
  • Jürgen Schäfer
  • Harald Sievers
