IV. OPTION OF APPOINTING A REPRESENTATIVE AND PROCEDURE TO BE
COMPLIED WITH Each shareholder who is eligible to attend the Annual
General Meeting, and has proven this to the company in accordance
with the specifications in Item III of this convocation, has the
right to appoint a proxy who may attend the Annual General Meeting on
behalf of the shareholder and has the same rights as the shareholder
he or she represents. The proxy must be granted to a specific person
(natural person or legal entity) in text form (Section 13(2) AktG);
it is also possible to authorize several persons. It is possible to
grant a proxy both before and during the Annual General Meeting. We
offer the following channels for the delivery of proxies: By mail or
courier: Rosenbauer International AG Investor Relations For attn.
Ms. Gerda Königstorfer, Paschinger Strasse 90 4060 Leonding,
Austria By fax: + 43 (0) 1 8900 500 49 By e-mail:
anmeldung.rosenbauer@hauptversammlung.at (Proxies can be considered
in PDF format.) The proxies must be received at one of the above
addresses by May 17, 2017, 4:00 p.m. at the latest, if they will not
be turned in at the entry and exit control of the Annual General
Meeting on the day of the Annual General Meeting. A proxy form and a
form for revoking the proxy are available from the company's web-site
at www.rosenbauer.com. In the interest of ensuring that these are
processed smoothly, we ask that you please always use the forms
provided. Details on the authorization of proxies, particularly on
the text form and on the content of the proxy, are set out in the
proxy form provided to the shareholders. If the shareholder has
issued a proxy for his custodian bank (Section 10a AktG), it shall be
sufficient for it to submit the declaration that a proxy has been
granted to it in addition to the deposit certificate via the route
provided for its delivery to the company. Shareholders can personally
exercise their rights in the Annual General Meeting even after
issuing a proxy. Appearance in person is considered a revocation of
any previous-ly issued proxy. The above provisions on the granting of
a proxy shall apply analogously for revoking the proxy.

Independent Voting Proxy As an additional service, Dr. Johannes
Freiler-Waldburger, General Counsel and Group Compliance Officer, is
available to shareholders as an independent proxy to exercise voting
rights at the Annual General Meeting in accordance with instructions.
A special proxy form for authorizing Dr. Johannes Freiler- Waldburger
is available on the company's website at www.rosenbauer.com and must
be received by the company at one of the aforementioned addresses for
submitting proxies (fax, e-mail, mail) only. It is also possible to
contact Dr. Johannes Freiler-Waldburger, General Counsel and Group
Compliance Officer, directly by telephone on +43 (732) 6794-5316 or
e-mail at Johannes.Freiler- Waldburger@rosenbauer.com. The
shareholder must issue instructions to Dr. Johannes
Freiler-Waldburger as to how he (or any sub-representative authorized
by Dr. Johannes Freiler-Waldburger) must exercise the voting right.
Dr. Johannes Freiler-Waldburger will vote exclusively in ac-cordance
with instructions given by the respective shareholder. The proxy is
invalid without explicit instructions. Please note that the proxy
will not accept instructions to speak, raise objections to
resolutions of the Annual General Meeting, or to ask questions or
file motions.

Guests The Annual General Meeting is the primary body of a stock
corporation, since it is the forum for the owners of the company -
the shareholders. For this reason, we ask for your understanding of
the fact that we cannot make the Annual General Meeting into an event
for guests, as much as we appreciate such interest. The participation
of guests is thus only possible after prior Registration (tel.: 0043
732 6794 402,e-mail: ir@rosenbauer.com). We ask for your
understanding that, due to the historically large number of
participants at our Annual General Meeting, for organizational
reasons in connection with the prep-aration of the buffet per deposit
certificate, it is generally only possible for a maximum of two
persons (one shareholder and one proxy, or two proxies instead of the
shareholder) to be admitted.

V. NOTES ON THE RIGHTS OF SHAREHOLDERS PURSUANT TO SECTIONS 109, 110,
118 AND 119 OF THE AUSTRIAN STOCK CORPORATION ACT (AKTG -
AKTIENGESETZ)

1. Additions to the Agenda by Shareholders Under Section 109 AktG
Shareholders whose combined shares total 5% of the share capital and
who have held these shares for at least three months prior to filing
the motion can submit a written request for items to be added to the
agenda of this Annual General Meeting and an-nounced, provided that
such written request is received by the company via mail or courier
no later than April 27, 2017 (12:00 midnight), at the following
address only: Gerda Königstorfer, Investor Relations Department,
Paschinger Strasse 90, 4060 Leonding, Austria. Each agenda item thus
requested must be accompanied by a pro-posed resolution and a
statement of grounds. Proof of share ownership must be presented in
the form of a deposit certificate pursuant to Section 10a AktG which
confirms that the shareholders filing the motion have held the shares
for at least three months prior to filing the motion and which is no
more than seven days old at the time of its presentation to the
company. Please refer to the information on eligibility to attend
(Item III) regarding the other requirements of the deposit
certificate.

2. Resolutions Proposed for the Agenda by Shareholders Under Section
110 AktG Shareholders whose combined shares total 1% of the share
capital may submit written proposals for resolutions plus grounds for
each item on the agenda of this Annual General Meeting and request
that such proposals be made available on the company's website listed
in the company register along with the names of the shareholders
concerned, the accompanying statement of grounds and any opinion of
the Executive Board or the Supervisory Board, provided this request
is received by the company in text form by May 9, 2017 (12:00

Supervisory Board member, the statement of the nominated person
pursuant to Section 87 (2) AktG must be submitted instead of the
statement of grounds. Proof of share ownership must be presented in
the form of a deposit certificate pursuant to Section 10a AktG, which
is no more than seven days old at the time of its presentation to the
company. Please refer to the information on eligibility to attend
(Item III) regarding the other requirements of the deposit
certificate.

3. Shareholders' Right to Information Under Section 118 AktG At the
Annual General Meeting, each shareholder is entitled to receive, upon
request, information on company matters to the extent that it is
required for proper assessment of an agenda item. The obligation to
provide information also extends to the legal rela-tionships of the
company to an affiliated company, as well as to the position of the
Group and of the companies included in the consolidated financial
statements. Such information may be refused if, according to sound
business judgment, it has the potential to cause a considerable
disadvantage to the company or an affiliated company or if its
disclosure would cause liability to prosecution. The Chairman of the
Annual General Meeting can appropriately restrict the sharehold-ers'
rights to speak and ask questions in terms of time pursuant to
Section 19 (2) of the Articles of Association. He can order general
and individual restrictions on speaking and questioning times,
particularly at the beginning of, but also during, the Annual General
Meeting. Requests for information at the Annual General Meeting are
generally to be made ver-bally, but are also acceptable in writing.
Questions whose answers require longer preparation may be submitted
in writing to the Executive Board in good time prior to the Annual
General Meeting in order to ensure that the meeting runs efficiently.
The questions may be submitted to the company by fax to +43 (0)732
6794 - 89 or by e-mail to ir@rosenbauer.com.

4. Motions by Shareholders at the Annual General Meeting Under
Section 119 AktG Each shareholder - irrespective of the size of their
shareholding - is entitled to file motions on each item of the agenda
at the Annual General Meeting. If multiple motions are submitted for
one item on the agenda, the Chairman shall specify the sequence of
voting pursuant to Section 119 (3) AktG. However, the prompt
submission of a proposed resolution in accordance with Section 110
AktG is a mandatory requirement in the case of a shareholder
nomination for the election of a Supervisory Board member: persons
may only be nominated for election to the Supervisory Board (agen-da
item 6) by shareholders who together hold at least 1% of the share
capital. Such nominations must be received by the company in the
manner described above (Item V (2)) by May 9, 2017, at the latest.
Each nomination must be accompanied by a state-ment from the
nominated person in accordance with Section 87 (2) AktG regarding
their professional qualifications, their professional or comparable
positions and any circumstances that could give rise to concerns
regarding impartiality. Otherwise, the shareholder nomination for the
election of a Supervisory Board member may not be taken into
consideration in the vote.

5. Information on the Website More detailed information on these
shareholder rights pursuant to Sections 109, 110, 118 and 119 AktG is
available on the company's website at www.rosenbauer.com.
