The convocation of the AM including the Agenda is published at least on the 37th day before the AM in the Federal Gazette (Bundesanzeiger). The announcement of convocation of the ordinary Annual Meeting of Daimler AG was issued on February 27, 2013.

After publication of the Agenda, shareholders may raise countermotions
to proposals of the Board of Management and/or Supervisory Board concerning certain items of the Agenda and submit election proposals.
Daimler AG will publish received countermotions and election proposals on its website at www.daimler.com/ir/am2013/motions. Countermotions and election proposals, which were not received by Daimler AG before March 26, 2013 midnight, need not be made publicly accessible.

Shareholders not attending the AM in person have the option of voting by proxy, for example, the voting proxies appointed by the Company, a bank, a shareholders’ association or a third party. Timely notification of the intention to attend the AM is required also in this case, either by the shareholder or a proxy.

If a bank or shareholders' association is appointed as proxy, the proxy authorization and, where applicable, voting instructions must be sent directly to the bank or shareholders’ association. Before transferring any voting rights, shareholders should make sure that the bank / or shareholders’ association is prepared to exercise the voting rights on the shareholder's behalf.

If neither a bank nor a shareholders’ association nor another equivalent person or institution as defined by Section 135, Subsections 8 and 10 of the German Stock Corporation Act (Aktiengesetz), but another third party is authorized as a proxy, the proxy authorization and, if applicable any revocation of such authorization are to be communicated either in writing or via electronic media (“Textform”) to the address, fax number or e-mail address stated in the convocation of the AM or in writing or via electronic media (“Textform”) to the proxy. In the latter case, the Company must be furnished with proof in writing or via electronic media (“Textform”). Proxy authorisation can also be granted in the context of ordering admission tickets via the e-service for shareholders. Shareholders can find further information on this and, in particular, regarding the use of the e-service for shareholders, in the convocation of the AM.

Alternatively, a shareholder may appoint the company proxies and give voting instructions to those proxies, who will vote solely according to the instructions of the shareholder at the AM. The shareholder can issue the authorization of company proxies and the voting instructions via the e-service for shareholders, via telefax, e-mail or post. Shareholders can find further information on this in the convocation of the AM.

Shareholders, who cannot attend the AM in person, may make use of absentee voting. Absentee voting enables shareholders to cast their votes in writing or via electronic media ("Textform") preferably by using the reply form or to vote online through the e-service for shareholders. Shareholders using the absentee voting are not attending at the AM, and thus are not recorded in the attendance list. However, his/her shares are among the share capital represented in the AM.

Authorized banks, shareholders’ associations and equivalent persons or institutions as defined by Section 135, Subsections 8 und 10 of the German Stock Corporation Act (Aktiengesetz) who professionally offer shareholders their services in exercising voting rights at the AM may also vote by absentee voting.

Showing his admission ticket a shareholder can demonstrate his/her authorization to attend the AM. However, receipt of an admission ticket is no condition for attending the AM or for exercising voting rights but only conduces to facilitate the organization of the AM.

Shareholders can order admission tickets using one of the addresses stated
in the convocation of the AM or via the e-service for shareholders.
Orders must be received by the company until Friday, April 5, 2013 at the latest. Also those shareholders who use our e-service for shareholders can print their admission tickets themselves.

This is the right to take part in voting at the AM, which is conferred to a share. Each share of Daimler AG represents one vote.

Exercising the right to vote is the basic entitlement of every shareholder.
He/She may also delegate this right to a third party, particularly to employees identified by the company (Company proxy), a shareholder's association or the bank managing his portfolio by way of proxy.

The right to exercise the vote is determined according to the Articles of Incorporation of Daimler AG by the shareholding registered in the share register on the date of the AM. Furthermore the respective shareholder may only vote at the AM if he/she registered in due time. This shareholding will correspond the holding as per the registration deadline on April 5 midnight, since due to technical reasons applications for registration in the Company's share register received from April 6 through April 10, 2013 will be processed and considered only with effect of April 11, 2013.

The language to be used at the AM is German.

A simultaneous English translation via headphones will be provided in a specially designated area in Hall 1 for all English - speaking meeting participants. In addition, speeches in English will be simultaneously translated and conveyed over loudspeakers in the halls.
