Information on the Annual General Meeting

Legal Challenges
Fresenius SE has been informed by the competent regional court (Landgericht Frankfurt a.M.) that three legal challenges were filed.

They are filed against the change of the company’s legal form into a partnership limited by shares − Kommanditgesellschaft auf Aktien (KGaA) − in combination with the conversion of preference shares into ordinary shares. The legal challenges are also filed against the ratification of actions of the Supervisory Board and the Management Board for the financial year 2009. The company will initiate a judicial clearance procedure in order to timely achieve registration of the change of the legal form in the commercial register and thereby the implementation of the respective shareholder’s resolution. Such judicial clearance procedure is independent of the progress of the pending legal challenges.

At the company’s annual general meeting on May 12, 2010, a 98% majority of ordinary shareholders and a 94% majority of preference shareholders voted for the conversion of all preference shares into ordinary shares along with a change of the company’s legal form into a KGaA.
