NOTICE CONCERNING SHAREHOLDERS' RIGHTS (Section 106 (5) AktG)

Pursuant to Section 109 AktG, shareholders who together hold 5% of
the share capital may request in writing that items be put on the
agenda and published. Any such item so requested must be accompanied
by a proposal for a resolution and an explanatory statement. The
applicants must have held their shares for at least three months
prior to their request. A request must be received by the Company no
later than on the 21st day prior to the Annual General Meeting, hence
on or before 9 May 2016. Such a request must be made in writing and
sent to the Company's address at A-1029 Vienna, Untere Donaustraße
21, UNIQA Tower, Investor Relations. Pursuant to Section 110 AktG,
shareholders who together hold 1% of the share capital may send the
Company proposals for resolutions in text form in respect of each
item on the agenda and request that such proposals, including the
names of the requesting shareholders, the reasons to be given for the
request, and a statement, if any, by the management board or the
supervisory board be made available on the Company's website. The
request must be sent in writing to the Company's address at A-1029
Vienna, Untere Donaustraße 21, UNIQA Tower, Investor Relations, or
via fax at +43 1 211 75 79 3773 or e-mail to

attached to the e-mail message in text form (e.g. as pdf file)). The
request will be considered if it is received by the Company on or
before the 7th business day prior to the Annual General Meeting, i.e.
on or before 18 May 2016. If a request concerns a proposal for the
election of a member of the supervisory board, the reasoning is
replaced by a statement issued by the proposed individual pursuant to
Section 87 (2) AktG. Pursuant to Section 118 AktG, every shareholder
must receive information about the Company's affairs at the Annual
General Meeting upon his or her request, if that information is
necessary to properly evaluate an item on the agenda. Information may
be withheld if, based on sound business judgment, it is likely to
cause the Company or any of its affiliates a significant drawback, or
if the provision of such information would constitute a criminal
offence. Shareholder rights which are linked to the holding of shares
during a certain period of time may be exercised only if the
shareholder(s) submit(s) a deposit certificate pursuant to Section
10a AktG to prove its (their) shareholder status during the relevant
period. Further information about shareholder rights pursuant to
Sections 109, 110 and 118 AktG is available on the Company's website
(www.uniqagroup.com) at Investor Relations/Annual General Meeting.

RIGHT TO ATTEND, DEPOSIT CERTIFICATE, RECORD DATE, AND PROXY (Section
106 (6), (7) and (8) AktG)

Pursuant to Section 111 (1) AktG, the right to attend the Annual
General Meeting and to exercise shareholder rights depends on the
shares held at the end of the tenth day prior to the Annual General
Meeting (record date). Only shareholders who were shareholders at the
end of the tenth day prior to the Annual General Meeting (record
date) may attend the Annual General Meeting and exercise their
shareholder rights. The record date is 20 May 2016, 24.00 hours
(Vienna time). For bearer shares deposited with a custodian (the
Company has only issued that type of shares), proof of shareholder
status on the record date is furnished by producing to the Company a
deposit certificate pursuant to Section 10a AktG, which must be
issued in writing and received by the Company on the third business
day prior to the Annual General Meeting at the latest, hence on or
before 24 May 2016, at A-1029 Vienna, Untere Donaustraße 21, UNIQA
Tower, Investor Relations, or via fax at +43 (0)1 8900 500 95 or
e-mail to anmeldung.uniqa@hauptversammlung.at (e-mail messages must
be accompanied by a deposit certificate in text form (e.g. as pdf
file)) or by SWIFT message type MT598 to GIBAATWGGMS with reference
to ISIN AT0000821103. The deposit certificate pursuant to Section 10a
AktG must be issued by the custodian bank domiciled in a Member State
of the European Economic Area or in a full Member State of the OECD.
If the deposit certificate is to prove current shareholder status, it
must not be older than seven days when presented to the Company. The
Company accepts deposit certificates in German and in English.

The deposit certificate must be issued by the shareholder's custodian
bank and must contain at least the following information: -
Information about the issuer: name/company name and address or a code
commonly used in transactions between banks (SWIFT code), -
Information about the shareholder: name/company name, address, date
of birth of individuals, register and register number (commercial
register number) of legal entities, - Securities account number or
other identifier, - Information about the shares: number of the
shareholder's share units, - Date or period to which the deposit
certificate refers.

Shares are not blocked as a result of shareholders registering for
the Annual General Meeting and/or presenting a deposit certificate.
Shareholders may continue to freely dispose of their shares even
after registration and/or presentation of a deposit certificate.
Every shareholder who may attend the Annual General Meeting may
appoint an individual or a legal entity as proxy. The Company itself
or a member of the management board or of the supervisory board may
exercise the voting right as proxy holder only if a shareholder
issued express instructions as to how to vote on the individual items
on the agenda. Proxy must be granted to a certain person in text
form. Every shareholder may use the forms the Company provides on its
website (www.uniqagroup.com) at Investor Relations/Annual General
Meetings. Shareholders are not obliged to use these forms. At the
request of shareholders, they may appoint Dr. Michael Knap, Vice-
President of Interessenverband für Anleger (IVA), at A-1130 Vienna,
Feldmühlgasse 22, as independent proxy who will exercise their voting
rights at the Annual General Meeting. Special forms for the grant and
revocation of proxies are available on the Company's website
(www.uniqagroup.com) at Investor Relations/Annual General Meeting.
Any proxy-related costs are borne by the Company. All other costs,
including but not limited to bank charges for the deposit certificate
or postage, must be borne by the shareholder. Furthermore,
shareholders may directly contact Dr. Michael Knap at +43 664 2138740
or e-mail at michael.knap@iva.or.at. Even if a proxy is granted to
the independent IVA proxy holder, it must be sent to the Company as
described below. The Company will provide the proxy with copies of
the proxies. Any instructions on the exercise of voting rights must
be issued directly to Dr. Michael Knap. Please note that Dr. Michael
Knap does not accept any instructions to speak, to ask questions, to
file motions or to raise objections against resolutions of the Annual
General Meeting. A shareholder's proxy must be sent to and retained
by the Company. A proxy must be received by the Company no later than
on 27 May 2016, 4 p.m. (last business day prior to the Annual General
Meeting), in writing by surface mail at A-1029 Vienna, Untere
Donaustraße 21, UNIQA Tower, Investor Relations, or by fax at +43
(0)1 8900 500 95 or e-mail at anmeldung.uniqa@hauptversammlung.at (if
sent by e-mail, the proxy must be attached to the e-mail message in
text form (e.g. as pdf file)), or via SWIFT message type MT598 to
GIBAATWGGMS with the reference ISIN AT0000821103. On the day of the
Annual General Meeting, the proxy may be handed over only personally
upon registration for the Annual General Meeting at the venue of the
meeting. Upon request, the proxy form provided on the Company's
website will be sent by surface mail. If a shareholder has granted
proxy to his or her custodian bank (Section 10a AktG), the custodian
bank, besides issuing a deposit certificate, need only state that
proxy was granted to it. The above provisions governing the granting
of proxies apply by analogy to a revocation of proxies. The
distribution of voting cards for the Annual General Meeting starts at
9 a.m. on the day of the Annual General Meeting. Shareholders and
their proxies are asked to bring an official photo ID as
identification. The Company reserves the right to verify the
identities of the individuals (shareholders and their proxies) who
attend the Annual General Meeting. If their identity cannot be
determined, shareholders and their proxies may be denied admission to
and presence at the Annual General Meeting.

INFORMATION ABOUT BROADCAST OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

TOTAL NUMBER OF SHARES AND VOTING RIGHTS ON THE CONVOCATION DATE

capital amounts to EUR 309,000,000 divided into 309,000,000 no-par
share units. Each share unit grants one vote. The Company holds
