§ 8 Circulated votes

(1) In urgent cases, voting may take place by letter, email, telephone conference or fax without a Supervisory Board meeting being held (circulated vote), provided the chairperson adopts such a voting method and no Supervisory Board member opposes this procedure in writing within seven days of receiving the documents. The provisions on the convening of meetings shall apply accordingly. Where votes are cast verbally or by email, this must be confirmed in writing.

(2) At least half of the members, including the chairperson or a deputy, must vote to constitute a quorum.

(3) Representation by other Supervisory Board members is not permitted in a circulated vote.
