Munich, May 21, 2015. At today's ProSiebenSat.1 Media AG Annual General Meeting, shareholders voted with 99.97 % of the votes for the conversion of the Group into a European Company (Societas Europaea/SE). The conversion will take place after the entry into the Commercial Register which the Group expects in the next weeks. The new legal form supports the stronger international focus of ProSiebenSat.1, especially in the digital business. The Annual General Meeting also voted on the first Supervisory Board of ProSiebenSat.1 Media SE. Following the Annual General Meeting, Dr. Werner Brandt was appointed as Chairman of the Supervisory Board and Dr. Marion Helmes as Vice Chairwoman. The first Supervisory Board of ProSiebenSat.1 Media SE comprises the following nine members: Dr. Werner Brandt (Chairman), Lawrence Aidem, Antoinette (Annet) P. Aris, Adam Cahan, Philipp Freise, Angelika Gifford, Dr. Marion Helmes, Erik Adrianus Hubertus Huggers and Prof. Dr. Rolf Nonnenmacher. In addition, the Annual General Meeting approved all other proposed resolutions put to vote by the Executive Board and Supervisory Board. The shareholders of ProSiebenSat.1 Media AG also resolved to distribute a dividend of EUR 1.60 per share for the 2014 financial year. This equates to a total payout of EUR 341.9 million and a payout ratio of 81.6 % based on the underlying net income of the Group and is thus in line with the dividend policy communicated by ProSiebenSat.1. The dividend will be paid out on May 22, 2015. In addition, the Annual General Meeting granted discharge to the Executive Board and Supervisory Board for the 2014 financial year by a large majority.

"ProSieben Special: right-wing, German, radical."

"When children do sports, they speak one language."

“UKIMWI” is spelled out in capital letters on the ground of the dusty sports field in Bukoba, Tanzania. Ukimwi is Swahili, and it means AIDS. The children from the elementary school put the word together using lots of little wooden sticks.
