The complete annual report, including the compensation report and auditor’s reports, is available online at www.comet-group.com. You can also order a short version of the report to be delivered to you.

The report will be sent to you once your order is received by Devigus Engineering AG, the company assisting us with the Shareholder Meeting.
After registering, you will receive your admission card and voting card in time before the Shareholder Meeting.

The shareholder VERAISON SICAV (with a 10 % equity interest) has submitted various proposals of its own for the elections to the Board of Directors and for amendments to the Company’s Bylaws. These proposals are included under the relevant agenda items. The Board has added a brief opinion on each of these proposals. The Board of Directors takes up nominations from shareholders for election to the Board, reviews them carefully and, using a formal professional process, compares them against other qualified candidates with the desired competencies, and finally proposes to all shareholders the individuals whom it has identified as the most suitable candidates. In order to provide shareholders with the greatest possible transparency, the Board describes this nomination process and the competencies and experience present within the Board of Directors, on the website at www.comet-group/investors/ga.

For organizational reasons, we ask shareholders to register by April 15, 2019.

For the Shareholder Meeting you have the convenient option of voting online.

Online voting is available from March 26, 2019 at 6:00 a.m. CET to April 18, 2019 at 12:00 noon CEST. Shareholders are entitled to vote if their name is on record in the share register of Comet Holding AG as of ten days before the Shareholder Meeting, that is, as of April 15, 2019.

For the Board of Directors
The Chairperson:

Hans Hess
