Referring to the notification of changes in voting rights by Dr. Wolfgang Porsche, Dr. Dr. Christian Porsche, Dipl.-Design. Stephanie Porsche-Schröder, Ferdinand Rudolf Wolfgang Porsche, and Felix Alexander Porsche on June 16, 2016, in which it was stated that the voting rights of Familie WP Holding GmbH based in Salzburg, Austria (the Notifying Party) on the issuer have exceeded the thresholds of 3%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 50% and 75%, Renk Aktiengesellschaft was informed of the following on behalf and acting as proxy of the Notifying Party according to Article 27a, Section 1 of the WpHG:

'The exceeding of the voting rights thresholds is not due to an acquisition of shares by the Notifying Party but is due to an attribution (for the first time) of voting rights attached to shares held by a subsidiary of the Notifying Party (Article 22, Section 1, Sentence 1, No. 1 of the WpHG).

1) Aims pursued through the acquisition of voting rights (Article 27a, Section 1, Sentence 3 of the WpHG).

a) The facts underlying the attribution of the voting rights neither serve to generate trading profits for the Notifying Party nor to implement strategic aims.

b) The Notifying Party does not intend to obtain additional voting rights within the next twelve months through acquisition or in any other way.

c) The Notifying Party currently does not seek to influence the filling of the issuer's administration, management or supervisory bodies.

d) The Notifying Party currently does not seek to materially change the issuer's capital structure, particularly not the equity and debt financing ratio or the dividend policy.

2) Origin of funds employed (Article 27a, Section 1, Sentence 4 of the WpHG)

The voting rights were only acquired by the attribution of voting rights pursuant to Article 22, Section 1, Sentence 1, No. 1 of the WpHG. Own or borrowed funds were not used to finance the acquisition of the voting rights.'
