List of memberships in Group bodies of Managing Board and Supervisory Board of SIXT SE
SUPERVISORY BOARD OF SIXT SE
The Supervisory Board of Sixt SE consists of four members (see Section 10 (1) of the Articles of Association). The main tasks of the Supervisory Board include the appointment of the members of the Management Board and the monitoring of the Management Board. As a general rule, the Supervisory Board adopts its resolutions in meetings. If instructed by the Supervisory Board Chairman, resolutions by the Supervisory Board may also be adopted outside of meetings (or by way of a combined resolution). Resolutions of the Supervisory Board require a simple majority of the votes cast, unless otherwise stipulated by mandatory law. Further details on the meetings and activities of the Supervisory Board in the individual financial years are provided in the report of the Supervisory Board in the respective Annual Report. The current rules of procedure of the Supervisory Board of Sixt SE are available on this website in the section “Corporate Governance”. The Management Board and the Supervisory Board cooperate closely for the benefit of the Sixt Group. The Management Board informs the Supervisory Board regularly, promptly and comprehensively on all matters that are relevant to the company and the Group regarding strategic planning, business development, the risk situation and risk management as well as about the results of internal audits. The Management Board agrees the strategic direction of the company with the Supervisory Board and discusses strategy implementation at regular intervals. Documents required for decision-making, in particular the annual financial statements of Sixt SE, the consolidated financial statements, the combined management report including the auditor’s reports, are forwarded to the members of the Supervisory Board sufficiently in advance of the respective meeting.
One of the main tasks of the Supervisory Board is the development of the remuneration system for the Management Board. The remuneration system is adopted by the Supervisory Board and submitted to the Annual General Meeting for approval in accordance with § 120a of the German Stock Corporation Act (AktG). It is available on this website under the heading “Corporate Governance”. The Supervisory Board reviews the appropriateness of the remuneration components at regular intervals to ensure a customary and competitive system. For this purpose, it will carry out horizontal peer group comparisons and vertical comparisons with the remuneration amounts and structure of a group of senior and executive managers below the Sixt SE Management Board level that was defined by the Supervisory Board and of the managing directors at the consolidated companies of the Sixt Group. Companies that are comparable to Sixt SE in terms of relevant criteria, such as industry (focus on mobility services) and size (measured in terms of revenue, employees and market capitalization), are used to assess horizontal customary practice. The majority of the comparable companies are from Germany (especially MDAX). In addition, international companies were also taken into account.

The Supervisory Board had established an Audit Committee and a Nomination Committee in financial year 2022.
