Alone the text of that document published in german is legally binding.

 

With the application of the MAR on 03 July 2016, Directors‘ Dealings are no longer published by the FMA, but rather by the issuer. The liable individual must provide the Directors‘ Dealings report to the issuer and the FMA. At that point, the issuer will publish the report in accordance with Art. 19 Para. 3 MAR. Persons that carry out management tasks within an issuing body, as well as persons with a close relationship to them, report to the issuer and the FMA every proprietary business with shares or debt security of the issuer, or any connected derivatives or other connected financial instruments (Art 19 Para. 1 MAR).
