The shareholders of STARAMBA SE (XETRA: 99SC) adopted almost all resolutions with a large majority at the Annual General Meeting held yesterday, 13 February 2019, in Berlin.

Among other things, the Annual General Meeting expressed its confidence in the current Members of the Management and the Board of Directors for the 2017 financial year by a clear majority and approved almost all items on the agenda. Among others, RSM GmbH, Wirtschaftsprüfungsgesellschaft/Steuerberatungsgesellschaft, Frankfurt / Main, was elected as auditor for the financial year 2018. On the other hand, two applications for a special audit, the discharge of a former Member of the Board of Directors and a former Managing Director were rejected.

As proposed by the Board of Directors, two new members, Mr Achim Betz and Mr Axel von Starck, were elected to the Board of Directors at the Annual General Meeting. They replace the previous Members of the Board of Directors, Ms Marthe Rehmer (née Wolbring) and Mr Marc Kneifel, who resigned as Members of the Board of Directors with effect from the end of the Annual General Meeting.

“I would like to thank Marthe Rehmer and Marc Kneifel for their excellent cooperation. They accompanied the company through a difficult phase and contributed their full expertise. Now it is time to set a new course. Thank you again for your commitment,” says Christian Daudert, CEO of STARAMBA SE. Mr Daudert continued: “There are further changes in the Board of Directors. Effective immediately, Rolf Elgeti will act as Chairman of the Supervisory Body, Achim Betz will be his Vice-Chairman”.
Rolf Elgeti, the new Chairman of the Board of Directors, comments: “I am delighted that we have succeeded in recruiting Mr. Betz, a proven expert who will chair our newly established Audit Committee.
