FINANCIAL INFORMATION


Management's Discussion and Analysis

Forward-looking Statements

       This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). When used in this report, the words "outlook," "expects," "anticipates," "intends," "plans," "believes," "seeks," "estimates" and similar expressions are generally intended to identify forward looking statements. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which cannot be predicted with accuracy and some of which might not even be anticipated, and future events and actual results, financial and otherwise, could differ materially from those set forth in or contemplated by the forward-looking statements contained elsewhere in this report. We have based these forward-looking statements on current estimates and assumptions made to the best of our knowledge. By their nature, such forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors which could cause actual results, including our financial condition and profitability, to differ materially positively or negatively relative to the results expressly or implicitly described in or suggested by these statements. Moreover, forward-looking estimates or predictions derived from third parties' studies or information may prove to be inaccurate. Consequently, we cannot give any assurance regarding the future accuracy of the opinions set forth in this report or the actual occurrence of the projected developments described herein. In addition, even if our future results meet the expectations expressed here, those results may not be indicative of our performance in future periods.

       These risks, uncertainties, assumptions, and other factors that could cause actual results to differ from our projected results include, among others, the following:

       Important factors that could contribute to such differences are noted in "Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Overview, legislation and growth – Overview" below, in Note 11 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited), "Commitments and Contingencies" included in this report, in Note 19 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, "Commitments and Contingencies" included in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2015, and under "Risk Factors" and elsewhere in that report.

       Our business is also subject to other risks and uncertainties that we describe from time to time in our public filings. Developments in any of these areas could cause our results to differ materially from the results that we or others have projected or may project.

       Our reported financial condition and results of operations are sensitive to accounting methods, assumptions and estimates that are the basis of our financial statements. The actual accounting policies, the judgments made in the selection and application of these policies and the sensitivities of reported results to changes in accounting policies, assumptions and estimates, are factors to be considered along with our financial statements and the discussion under "Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Results of Operations" below. There have been no significant changes during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 to the items disclosed within the critical accounting policies and estimates in Item 5, "Operating and Financial Review and Prospects – Critical Accounting Policies" in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Africa operating segment, the term "Asia-Pacific Segment" refers to our Asia-Pacific operating segment, and the term "Latin America Segment" refers to our Latin America operating segment. The term "Corporate" includes certain headquarters' overhead charges, including accounting and finance, centrally managed production, asset management, quality management, procurement and research and development. The term "Constant Currency" or at "Constant Exchange Rates" means that we have translated local currency revenues for the current reporting period into U.S. dollars using the same average foreign currency exchange rates for the conversion of revenues into U.S. dollars that we used to translate local currency revenues for the comparable reporting period of the prior year, as described below under "Non-US GAAP Measures for Presentation – Constant Currency."


Overview, legislation and growth

Overview

       We are the world's largest kidney dialysis company, based on publicly reported sales and number of patients treated and our dialysis product offerings. We provide dialysis care and related services to persons who suffer from end stage renal disease ("ESRD") as well as other health care services. We develop and manufacture a full range of dialysis machines, systems and disposable products, which we sell to customers in more than 120 countries and also use in our internal health care service operations. Our dialysis business is therefore vertically integrated. We describe our other health care services as "Care Coordination." Care Coordination currently includes coordinated delivery of pharmacy services, vascular, cardiovascular and endovascular specialty services, non-dialysis laboratory testing services, physician services, hospitalist and intensivist services, health plan services, ambulatory surgery center services and urgent care services, which, together with dialysis care services represent our health care services. We estimated the volume of the global dialysis market was approximately $73 billion in 2015. Dialysis patient growth results from factors such as the aging population and increased life expectancies; shortage of donor organs for kidney transplants; increasing incidence of kidney disease and better treatment of and survival of patients with diabetes, hypertension and other illnesses, which frequently lead to the onset of chronic kidney disease; improvements in treatment quality, which prolong patient life; and improving standards of living in developing countries, which make life-saving dialysis treatment available.

       As a global company delivering health care services and dialysis products, we face the challenge of addressing the needs of a wide variety of stakeholders, such as patients, customers, payors, regulators and legislators in many different economic environments and health care systems. In general, government-funded programs (in some countries in coordination with private insurers) pay for certain health care items and services provided to their citizens. Not all health care systems provide for dialysis treatment. Therefore, the reimbursement systems in various countries and ancillary services utilization environment significantly influence our business.

       The majority of health care services we provide are paid for by governmental institutions. Approximately 32% of our consolidated revenues are attributable to U.S. federally-funded health care benefit programs, such as Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement, under which reimbursement rates are set by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services ("CMS"). Legislative changes could affect Medicare reimbursement rates for a significant portion of the services we provide. To date, while we have generally

for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015

experienced stable reimbursement globally, the stability of reimbursement in the U.S. has been affected by the following legislative developments:

Significant Legislative Impacts on U.S. Reimbursement

Significant Administrative Impacts on U.S. Reimbursement

       On November 6, 2015, CMS published a final rule to update payment policies and rates under the ESRD PPS for renal dialysis services furnished on or after January 1, 2016. In this final rule, CMS clarified that once a non-oral version of a previously oral-only drug, such as phosphate binders and calcimimetics, is approved by the Food and Drug Administration ("FDA"), such drug will cease to be considered oral-only. At such time, CMS will commence a process to issue billing codes so that both the oral and non-oral versions of the drug are billable under Part B for a period of at least two years using a transition drug add-on payment adjustment such as average sales price plus 6%, or some other mechanism set in accordance with Section 1847A of the Social Security Act. During this transition period, CMS will not pay outlier payments for these drugs, but will collect data reflecting utilization of both the oral and injectable or intravenous forms of the drugs, as well as payment patterns, in order to more accurately determine the

Table of Contents


FRESENIUS MEDICAL CARE AG & Co. KGaA

Interim Report of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015

appropriate payment rate to be included in the ESRD PPS for these drugs. At the end of this transition period, CMS will add payment for the oral and non-oral versions of the drug into the ESRD PPS through a public rulemaking process similar to that used to set annual ESRD PPS rates. Any failure by CMS to provide adequate additional reimbursement for new drugs or other products that are added to the ESRD PPS could have a material adverse effect on our health care services business and results of operations.

Recent CMS ESRD PPS Payment Rates

       On November 6, 2015, CMS published the final ruling regarding the ESRD PPS rate for 2016. We and other large dialysis organizations will experience a 0.2% increase in payments. The base rate per treatment is $230.39, which represents an approximate reduction of 4%, net, from the 2015 base rate. The 2016 final ruling reflects a net market basket increase of 0.15% (2% less 1.25% PAMA reduction and 0.6% productivity adjustment), application of a wage index budget-neutrality adjustment factor of 1.000495 and application of a refinement budget-neutrality adjustment factor of 0.960319. However, the approximate 4% reduction is almost completely offset with CMS proposed case mix adjustments based upon their analysis of the fiscal years 2012 and 2013.

       On June 30, 2016, CMS published a proposed ruling regarding the ESRD PPS rate for 2017. We and other large dialysis organizations will experience a 0.3% increase in payments as compared to the ESRD PPS rate for 2016. The proposed base rate per treatment is $231.04, which reflects a reduced market basket increase of 0.35%, application of a wage index budget neutrality adjustment factor of 1.0004482 and application of budget-neutrality adjustment factors of 0.999552 and 0.999729. This proposed rule also includes potential changes to the 2019 and 2020 ESRD QIP measures.

Reimbursement Expectation

       As a consequence of the pressure to decrease health care costs, government reimbursement rate increases in the U.S. have historically been limited and are expected to continue in this fashion. We have generally experienced stable reimbursement globally, including the balancing of unfavorable reimbursement changes in certain countries with favorable changes in other countries. In the future, we expect to experience generally stable reimbursements for dialysis services globally. However, any significant decreases in Medicare or commercial reimbursement rates or patient access to commercial insurance plans could have material adverse effects on our health care services business and, because the demand for dialysis products is affected by Medicare reimbursement, on our products business. To the extent that increases in operating costs that are affected by inflation, such as labor and supply costs, are not fully reflected in a compensating increase in reimbursement rates, our business and results of operations may be adversely affected.

Participation in new Medicare Payment Arrangements

       CMS is working with various health care providers to develop, refine and implement innovative models of care for Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries. The extent to which the long-term operation and evolution of these care models, including Accountable Care Organizations, Bundled Payments for Care Improvement Initiative, the Comprehensive ESRD Care Model ("CEC Model"), which includes the development of ESRD Seamless Care Organizations ("ESCOs") and other models, will impact the health care market over time is uncertain. Our U.S. health care services businesses may choose to participate in certain of these models in certain markets either as a partner with other providers or independently. As existing and new models of care emerge and evolve both in the government and private sectors, patients

may choose to be treated by or may be assigned by CMS or other insurers to another provider's care organization, which could have a materially adverse effect on our revenues, earnings and cash flow. As discussed below, we are currently participating in certain of these models.

       We participate in CMS's CEC Model, through ESCOs in six markets. The CEC Model seeks to deliver better health outcomes for ESRD patients while lowering Medicare's costs. ESCOs that achieve the program's minimum quality thresholds and generate reductions in CMS's cost of care above certain thresholds for the ESRD patients covered by the ESCO will receive a share of the cost savings. Our ESCOs also share the risk of cost increases above certain thresholds and are required to reimburse CMS for a share of any such increases. The CEC Model commenced on October 1, 2015, and the initial agreement period lasts three years. Thereafter, CMS may offer to extend an ESCO's agreement for an additional two years based on the ESCO's performance. CMS is expanding the CEC Model in 2017 and has requested applications for new ESCOs that would start on January 1, 2017. The Company has applied and is waiting public announcement from CMS of the new ESCO markets.

       The Bundled Payments for Care Improvement ("BPCI") initiative is a CMS three-year pilot initiative through which qualified provider organizations can take financial accountability for all Part A and Part B services, including acute inpatient hospital services, physician services, and post-acute services, furnished to Medicare beneficiaries during an episode of illness or course of treatment that initiates with a hospitalization and continues for 90 days following hospital discharge. Our majority-owned subsidiary, Sound Inpatient Physicians, Inc. ("Sound") commenced participation under BPCI in April 2015 in several markets. Under the BPCI, Sound has the ability to receive additional payments if its physicians are able to deliver quality care at a cost that is lower than certain targets pre-established by CMS, but it also has the risk of incurring financial penalties if episode of care costs are higher than the targets. Should Sound fail to perform as required under its BPCI agreement, CMS may terminate Sound's participation in the BPCI program, in whole or in part.

       We have entered into various arrangements with both government and private sector health care insurers which involve taking risk for the complete care of certain ESRD patients in exchange for set payments. We are currently operating Medicare Advantage ESRD Chronic Special Needs Plan ("MA-CSNP") in three states and will launch on January 1, 2017 new MA-SNPs in two additional states. MA-CSNPs are Medicare Advantage health plans offered by private companies that contract with Medicare to provide patients with Medicare benefits. Enrollment in these plans is limited to special needs individuals with specific severe or disabling chronic conditions, such as ESRD. Our MA-CSNPs provide services, including Care Coordination services, and receive capitated payments from Medicare for the complete care of enrolled ESRD patients. On April 4, 2016, CMS finalized the 2017 payments for Medicare Advantage plans and the Part D Prescription Drug Program. CMS expects a revenue change of 0.85% without consideration for expected growth in coding acuity which typically provides an additional 2.2%.

       We also participate in sub-capitation and other shared savings and risk arrangements with certain Medicare Advantage plans, accountable care organizations and other integrated care organizations under which we assume risk and share in savings realized in providing care to the plans' ESRD patients.

Premium Assistance Programs

       On August 18, 2016, CMS issued a Request for Information ("RFI") seeking public comment on concerns about providers' steering patients inappropriately to individual plans offered on the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act individual market plans. We and other dialysis providers, commercial

insurers and other industry participants responded to the RFI, and in that response, we reported that we do not engage in such steering. In the RFI, CMS sought public comments about regulatory changes that, if adopted by CMS, may negatively impact the ability of some of Company's patients to receive charitable assistance to fund their commercial insurance premiums.

Company Structure

       Our operating segments are the North America Segment, the Europe, Middle East and Africa ("EMEA") Segment, the Asia-Pacific Segment and the Latin America Segment. Our management evaluates each segment using measures that reflect all of the segment's controllable revenues and expenses. With respect to the performance of business operations, our management believes that the most appropriate U.S. GAAP measures are revenue, operating income and operating income margin. We do not include income taxes as we believe this is outside the segments' control. Financing is a corporate function which our segments do not control. Therefore, we do not include interest expense relating to financing as a segment measurement. Similarly, we do not allocate certain costs which relate primarily to certain headquarters' overhead charges, including accounting and finance, because we believe that these costs are also not within the control of the individual segments. Production of products, production asset management, quality management and procurement related to production are centrally managed at Corporate. The Company's global research and development is also centrally managed at Corporate. These Corporate activities do not fulfill the definition of a segment. Products are transferred to the segments at cost; therefore no internal profit is generated. The associated internal revenues for the product transfers and their elimination are recorded as Corporate activities (See Note 14 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) "Segment and Corporate Information" found elsewhere in this report). Capital expenditures for production are based on the expected demand of the segments and consolidated profitability considerations. In addition, certain revenues, investments and intangible assets, as well as any related expenses, are not allocated to a segment but accounted for at Corporate. Accordingly, all of these items are excluded from our analysis of segment results and are discussed below in our consolidated results of operations.

Interim Report of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015

       At September 30, 2016, we owned, operated or managed (excluding those managed but not consolidated in the U.S.) 3,579 dialysis clinics compared to 3,402 dialysis clinics at September 30, 2015. During the three months ended September 30, 2016, we acquired 57 dialysis clinics, opened 31 dialysis clinics and combined or closed 13 clinics. The number of patients treated in dialysis clinics that we own, operate or manage (excluding patients of dialysis clinics managed but not consolidated in the U.S.) increased by 5% to 306,366 at September 30, 2016 from 291,229 at September 30, 2015.

       Dialysis product revenue increased by 4% (5% increase at Constant Exchange Rates) to $864 million as compared to $829 million in the same period of 2015. The increase at Constant Exchange Rates was driven by increased sales of machines, dialyzers, products for acute care treatments, bloodlines as well as hemodialysis solutions and concentrates, partially offset by lower sales of renal pharmaceuticals.

       The decrease in gross profit margin to 32.0% from 32.7% primarily reflects decreases in the North America Segment and the EMEA Segment. The decrease in the North America Segment was mainly due to an unfavorable impact from Care Coordination services and higher personnel expense related to dialysis services, partially offset by lower costs for health care supplies and a favorable impact from a higher volume of dialysis treatments with commercial payors. The decrease in the EMEA Segment was driven by an unfavorable impact from manufacturing costs and an unfavorable impact from foreign exchange.

       Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses increased to $787 million in the three months ended September 30, 2016 from $742 million in the same period of 2015. SG&A expenses as a percentage of sales decreased to 17.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2016 in comparison with 17.5% in the same period of 2015 due to decreases in the Latin America Segment and a favorable impact of varying margins across our four reporting segments, partially offset by an increase in the North America Segment. The decrease in the Latin America Segment was mainly due to the prior year loss related the divestment of the dialysis service business in Venezuela and the impact from higher revenue in the region, partially offset by unfavorable foreign exchange effects. The increase in the North America Segment was attributable to a cost impact related to the vesting of long term incentive plan grants, an unfavorable impact from Care Coordination services and higher personnel expense, partially offset by lower legal expenses.

       Research and development ("R&D") expenses increased by 26% to $44 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 from $35 million for the same period of 2015 driven by higher personnel expense.

       Income from equity method investees increased to $29 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 from $9 million for the same period of 2015. This increase is primarily related to higher income from the Vifor Fresenius Medical Care Renal Pharma Ltd. joint venture due to increased revenue resulting from the expansion of its product portfolio.

       Operating income increased to $670 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 from $614 million for the same period in 2015. Operating income margin increased to 14.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to 14.5% for the same period in 2015 as a result of decreased SG&A as a percentage of revenue and increased income from equity method investees, partially offset by decreased gross profit margin.

       Delivered EBIT increased to $597 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 from $530 million for the same period in 2015 as a result of increased operating income, coupled with decreased noncontrolling interests due to a change in how the effects of CMS cost recoveries are recognized in our

joint ventures involving dialysis clinics and decreased noncontrolling interest expense related to Care Coordination.

       Interest expense increased by 4% to $110 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 from $106 million for the same period in 2015 due to the higher impact of the valuation of the embedded derivative related to the equity-neutral convertible bonds issued in September 2014 and the related call option on our shares. Interest income increased by 52% to $10 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to $6 million for the same period in 2015 due to the higher impact of the valuation of the derivative embedded in the convertible debt and the related call option on our shares as well as interest income related to delayed payments, partially offset by lower interest income due to the repayment of interest bearing notes receivables in the fourth quarter of 2015.

       Income tax expense decreased to $164 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to $168 million for the same period in 2015. The effective tax rate decreased to 28.8% from 32.8% for the same period of 2015 mainly driven by lower tax expense as a result of released tax liabilities in the third quarter of 2016 due to tax audit settlements with the tax authorities and a favorable impact from the prior year non-tax deductible loss from the divestment of our dialysis service business in Venezuela, partially offset by a lower portion of tax-free income attributable to noncontrolling interests compared to income before taxes.

       Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests for the three months ended September 30, 2016 decreased to $73 million from $84 million for the same period of 2015 primarily driven by a change in how the effects of CMS cost recoveries are recognized in our joint ventures involving dialysis clinics and decreased noncontrolling interest expense related to Care Coordination.

       Net income attributable to shareholders of FMC-AG & Co. KGaA for the three months ended September 30, 2016 increased by 27% to $333 million from $262 million for the same period in 2015 as a result of the combined effects of the items discussed above. Excluding the 2015 impacts of (i) the after tax loss, $26.9 million, from the divestment of our dialysis service business in Venezuela and (ii) the realized portion of the after tax gain, $4.8 million, from the sale of our European marketing rights for certain renal pharmaceuticals to our joint venture, Vifor Fresenius Medical Care Renal Pharma, net income attributable to FMC KGaA increased by 17%.

       Basic earnings per share increased by 26% for the three months ended September 30, 2016 to $1.09 as compared with $0.86 for the same period in 2015 primarily due to the increase in net income attributable to shareholders of FMC-AG & Co. KGaA described above. The average weighted number of shares outstanding for the period was approximately 306.0 million in 2016 (304.7 million in 2015).

       We employed 108,851 people (full-time equivalents) as of September 30, 2016 compared to 102,591 as of September 30, 2015, an increase of 6%, primarily due to overall growth in our business.

       The following discussions pertain to the North America Segment, the EMEA Segment, the Asia-Pacific Segment and the Latin America Segment and the measures we use to manage these segments.

for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015

       Dialysis treatments increased by 4% for the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the same period in 2015 primarily due to same market treatment growth (3%) and contributions from acquisitions (1%). At September 30, 2016, 187,611 patients (a 4% increase from September 30, 2015) were being treated in the 2,277 dialysis clinics that we own or operate in the North America Segment, compared to 181,230 patients treated in 2,205 dialysis clinics at September 30, 2015.

       In the U.S., the average revenue per treatment was $350 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and $347 for the same period in 2015. The increase was mainly attributable to a favorable impact from a higher volume of dialysis treatments with commercial payors.

       Cost per treatment in the U.S. increased to $278 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 from $273 in the same period of 2015. This increase was largely driven by higher personnel expense and administrative costs, partially offset by a favorable impact from lower cost for health care supplies.

       Dialysis product revenue increased by 7% to $232 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to $219 million in the same period in 2015. This was driven by higher sales of machines, dialyzers, renal pharmaceuticals and peritoneal dialysis products.

Operating Income

       Dialysis operating income increased to $505 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to $482 million in the same period in 2015. Operating income margin decreased to 18.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2016 from 19.1% for the same period in 2015, due to higher personnel expense and a cost impact related to the vesting of long term incentive plan grants, partially offset by lower costs from health care supplies, a higher volume with commercial payors and increased income from equity method investees.

Delivered EBIT

       Dialysis delivered EBIT increased by 7% to $440 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 from $413 million for the same period of 2015 mainly as the result of increased operating income coupled with decreased noncontrolling interests due to a change in how the effects of CMS cost recoveries are recognized in our joint ventures involving dialysis clinics.


Care Coordination

Revenue

       Care Coordination revenue increased by 29% to $618 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 from $480 million for the same period of 2015. This increase was driven by increases in organic revenue growth (24%), contributions from acquisitions (4%) and effects of bad debt (1%).

Operating Income

       Care Coordination operating income decreased to $31 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 from $33 million for the same period of 2015. The operating income margin decreased to 5.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2016 from 6.8% mainly driven by increased costs for hospitalist and intensivist services due to infrastructure development and an unfavorable impact from endovascular and cardiovascular services, partially offset by ESCO shared savings revenue recognition.

Delivered EBIT

       Care Coordination delivered EBIT increased to $26 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 from $22 million for the same period of 2015 mainly as the result of decreased noncontrolling interests effects, partially offset by decreased operating income.

Member Months Under Medical Cost Management

       Care Coordination's member months under medical cost management for the three months ended September 30, 2016 was 97,197 months as compared to 67,275 months for the same period of 2015. The increase in membership volume was largely due to furthered enrollment in our ESCOs coupled with the ESCOs initial inclusion in the fourth quarter of 2015 as well as growth in our sub-capitation and other shared savings arrangements and the continued contribution from MA-CSNPs which commenced in the first quarter of 2016, partially offset by a decrease in member months related to BPCI. See note 4 to the table "Key Indicators and Business Metrics for North America Segment," above.

Medical Cost Under Management

       Care Coordination's medical cost under management for the three months ended September 30, 2016 was $718 million as compared to $502 million for the same period of 2015. The increase in medical cost under management was attributable to the furthered enrollment in our ESCOs coupled with the ESCOs initial inclusion in the fourth quarter of 2015 as well as growth in our sub-capitation and other shared savings arrangements and the continued contribution from MA-CSNPs which commenced in the first quarter of 2016, partially offset by the decrease in BPCI member months noted above. See note 4 to the table "Key Indicators and Business Metrics for North America Segment," above.

Care Coordination Patient Encounters

       Care Coordination's patient encounters for the three months ended September 30, 2016 were 1,411,251 encounters and procedures as compared to 1,232,632 encounters and procedures for the three months ended September 30, 2015. The increase was driven by patient encounters and procedures provided by hospitalist and intensivist services, Fresenius Medical Care Rx Bone Mineral Metabolism ("Rx BMM") program, urgent care centers, vascular procedures as well as cardiovascular and endovascular services. See note 4 to the table "Key Indicators and Business Metrics for North America Segment," above.

Revenue

       Total revenue for the EMEA Segment increased by 2% (4% increase at Constant Exchange Rates) to $675 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to $659 million for the same period of 2015. Health care service revenue for the EMEA Segment increased by 8% (10% increase at Constant Exchange Rates) to $335 million during the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to $309 million for the same period of 2015. This is a result of contributions from acquisitions (8%) and same market treatment growth (4%), partially offset by the negative effect of exchange rate fluctuations (2%), decreases in organic revenue growth per treatment (1%) and the effect of closed or sold clinics (1%). Dialysis treatments increased by 9% for the three months ended September 30, 2016 over the same period in 2015 mainly due to contributions from acquisitions (6%) and same market treatment growth (4%), partially offset by the effect of closed or sold clinics (1%). As of September 30, 2016, we had 59,233 patients (10% increase from September 30, 2015) being treated at the 701 dialysis clinics that we own, operate or manage in the EMEA Segment compared to 53,887 patients treated at 648 clinics at September 30, 2015.

       Operating income decreased to $125 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to $130 million for the same period in 2015. Operating income margin decreased to 18.5% for the three months ended September 30, 2016 from 19.7% for the same period in 2015 mainly due to the prior year impact from a gain from the sale of our European marketing rights for certain renal pharmaceuticals, an unfavorable impact from manufacturing costs and higher bad debt expense, partially offset by favorable foreign exchange effects.

Delivered EBIT

       Delivered EBIT decreased by 4% to $124 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to $129 million for the same period in 2015 due to decreased operating income, partially offset by increased noncontrolling interests.

Revenue

       Total revenue for the Latin America Segment increased by 9% (27% increase at Constant Exchange Rates) to $192 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to $176 million for the same period of 2015. Health care service revenue for the Latin America Segment increased by 6% (31% increase at Constant Exchange Rates) during the three months ended September 30, 2016 to $139 million as compared to $131 million in the same period of 2015. This increase is a result of increases in organic revenue per treatment primarily driven by a retrospective reimbursement rate increase (30%), contributions from acquisitions (3%) and growth in same market treatments (2%), partially offset by the negative effect of exchange rate fluctuations (25%) and the effect of closed or sold clinics (4%). Dialysis treatments increased by 1% for the three months ended September 30, 2016 over the same period in 2015 mainly due to contributions from acquisitions (3%) and same market treatment growth (2%), partially offset by the effect of closed or sold clinics (4%). As of September 30, 2016, we had 30,164 patients being treated at the 232 dialysis clinics that we own, operate or manage in the Latin America Segment compared to 30,117 patients treated at 229 clinics at September 30, 2015.

       Dialysis product revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2016 increased by 19% (18% increase at Constant Exchange Rates) to $53 million compared to $45 million in the same period of 2015. The 18% increase at Constant Exchange Rates was mainly driven by higher sales of dialyzers, hemodialysis solutions and concentrates and bloodlines, partially offset by lower sales of peritoneal dialysis products and machines.

FRESENIUS MEDICAL CARE AG & Co. KGaA

Interim Report of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015

       Total Revenue increased by 7% (8% increase at Constant Exchange Rates) to $13,224 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $12,390 million in the same period of 2015 due to increases in Health Care revenue and dialysis product revenue.

       Health Care revenue increased by 8% to $10,720 million (9% increase at Constant Exchange Rates) for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $9,929 million in the same period of 2015, mainly due to increases in organic revenue per treatment (4%), growth in same market treatments (3%), contributions from acquisitions (2%) and an increase in dialysis days (1%), partially offset by the negative effect of exchange rate fluctuations (1%)and the effect of closed or sold clinics (1%).

       Dialysis treatments increased by 4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the same period in 2015. The increase is due to same market treatment growth (3%) and contributions from acquisitions (2%), partially offset by the effect of closed or sold clinics (1%).

       Dialysis product revenue increased by 2% (4% increase at Constant Exchange Rates) to $2,504 million as compared to $2,461 million in the same period of 2015. The increase at Constant Exchange Rates was driven by increased sales of dialyzers, machines, bloodlines, products for acute care treatments, hemodialysis solutions and concentrates and peritoneal dialysis products, partially offset by lower sales of renal pharmaceuticals.

       The increase in gross profit margin to 31.7% from 31.2% primarily reflects increases in the North America Segment and the Asia-Pacific Segment. The increase in the North America Segment was mainly due to lower costs for health care supplies and a higher volume of dialysis treatments with commercial payors, partially offset by higher personnel expense related to dialysis services and an unfavorable impact from Care Coordination services. The increase in the Asia-Pacific Segment was driven by business growth and favorable foreign exchange effects.

       Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses increased to $2,278 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $ 2,120 million in the same period of 2015. SG&A expenses as a percentage of sales increased to 17.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 in comparison with 17.1% in the same period of 2015 due to increases in the Asia-Pacific Segment, Corporate and the EMEA Segment, partially offset by a decrease in the Latin America Segment and a favorable impact of varying margins across our four reporting segments. The increase in the Asia-Pacific Segment was mainly due to increased costs related to further sales development, costs associated with changes in the Management Board and unfavorable foreign exchange effects. The increase at Corporate was primarily driven by higher overhead costs for manufacturing. The increase in the EMEA Segment was driven by the prior year impact from a gain from the sale of our European marketing rights for certain renal pharmaceuticals and higher bad debt expense, partially offset by the impact from higher sales. The decrease in the Latin America Segment was mainly due to the prior year loss related to the divestment of the dialysis service business in Venezuela as well as the impact from higher sales, partially offset by higher costs related to inflation.

       Research and development ("R&D") expenses increased by 20% to $120 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $100 million for the same period of 2015 driven by higher personnel expense and project costs related to an expansion of our project portfolio.

       Income from equity method investees increased to $61 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $22 million for the same period of 2015. This increase is primarily related to

higher income from the Vifor Fresenius Medical Care Renal Pharma Ltd. joint venture due to increased revenue resulting from the expansion of its product portfolio.

       Operating income increased to $1,851 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $1,665 million for the same period in 2015. Operating income margin increased to 14.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to 13.4% for the same period in 2015 as a result of increased gross profit margin and income from equity method investees, partially offset by an increase in SG&A as a percentage of revenue.

       Delivered EBIT increased to $1,634 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $1,458 million for the same period in 2015 as a result of increased operating income, partially offset by increased noncontrolling interests driven by higher operating income of our joint ventures involving dialysis clinics.

       Interest expense decreased by 10% to $346 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $384 million for the same period in 2015 due to the lower impact of the valuation of the embedded derivative related to the equity-neutral convertible bonds issued in September 2014 and the related call option on our shares as well as due to a reduction in our overall debt level. Interest income decreased by 52% to $38 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to $80 million for the same period in 2015 due to the lower impact of the valuation of the derivative embedded in the convertible debt and the related call option on our shares as well as the repayment of interest bearing notes receivables in the fourth quarter of 2015.

       Income tax expense increased to $471 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to $441 million for the same period in 2015. The effective tax rate decreased to 30.5% from 32.4% for the same period of 2015 mainly driven by lower tax expense as a result of released tax liabilities in the third quarter of 2016 due to tax audit settlements with the tax authorities and a prior year impact from the non-tax deductible loss from the divestiture of our dialysis service business in Venezuela, partially offset by a lower portion of tax free income attributable to noncontrolling interests compared to income before taxes.

       Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 increased to $217 million from $207 million for the same period of 2015 primarily driven by higher operating income of joint ventures with dialysis clinics, partially offset by decreased noncontrolling interest expense related to Care Coordination, both in the North America Segment.

       Net income attributable to shareholders of FMC-AG & Co. KGaA for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 increased by 20% to $855 million from $713 million for the same period in 2015 as a result of the combined effects of the items discussed above. Excluding the impacts of (i) the 2015 after tax loss, $26.9 million, from the divestiture of our dialysis service business in Venezuela and (ii) the 2015 realized portion of the after tax gain, $4.8 million, from the sale of our European marketing rights for certain renal pharmaceuticals to our joint venture, Vifor Fresenius Medical Care Renal Pharma, net income attributable to FMC KGaA increased by 16%.

       Basic earnings per share increased by 19% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 to $2.80 as compared with $2.34 for the same period in 2015 primarily due to the increase in net income attributable to shareholders of FMC-AG & Co. KGaA described above. The average weighted number of shares outstanding for the period was approximately 305.6 million in 2016 (304.2 million in 2015).

Dialysis

Revenue

       Dialysis revenue increased for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 by 6% to $7,808 million from $7,348 million in the same period of 2015.

       Dialysis care revenue increased for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 by 6% to $7,134 million from $6,705 million in the same period of 2015. This increase was driven by same market treatment growth (3%), increases in organic revenue per treatment (2%), an increase in dialysis days (1%) and contributions from acquisitions (1%), partially offset by the effect of closed or sold clinics (1%).

       Dialysis treatments increased by 5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to the same period in 2015 primarily due to same market treatment growth (3%), an increase in dialysis days (1%) and contributions from acquisitions (1%).

       In the U.S., the average revenue per treatment was $350 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and $345 for the same period in 2015. The increase was mainly attributable to a higher volume of dialysis treatments with commercial payors.

       Cost per treatment in the U.S. decreased to $281 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $282 in the same period of 2015. This decrease was largely driven by a favorable impact from lower cost for health care supplies, partially offset by higher personnel expense, rent expense and administration costs.

       Dialysis product revenue increased by 5% to $674 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to $643 million in the same period in 2015. This was driven by higher sales of machines, dialyzers and peritoneal dialysis products, partially offset by lower sales of renal pharmaceuticals.

Operating Income

       Dialysis operating income increased to $1,420 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to $1,199 million in the same period in 2015. Operating income margin increased to 18.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from 16.3% for the same period in 2015, due to lower costs from health care supplies, a higher volume with commercial payors, higher income from equity method investees and lower legal expenses, partially offset by higher personnel expense, and a cost impact related to the vesting of long term incentive plan grants.

Delivered EBIT

       Dialysis delivered EBIT increased by 19% to $1,232 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $1,033 million for the same period of 2015 mainly as the result of increased operating income, partially offset by increased noncontrolling interests driven by higher operating income of our joint ventures involving dialysis clinics.

Care Coordination

Revenue

       Care Coordination revenue increased by 23% to $1,704 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $1,382 million for the same period of 2015. This increase was driven by increases in organic revenue growth (19%), contributions from acquisitions (3%) and effects of bad debt (1%).

Operating Income

       Care Coordination operating income decreased to $66 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $85 million for the same period of 2015. The operating income margin decreased to 3.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from 6.1% mainly driven by increased costs for hospitalist and intensivist services as well as physician practice services due to infrastructure development, partially offset by increased sales of pharmacy services.

Delivered EBIT

       Care Coordination delivered EBIT decreased to $44 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $52 million for the same period of 2015 mainly as the result of decreased operating income partially offset by decreased noncontrolling interests effects.

Member Months Under Medical Cost Management

       Care Coordination's member months under medical cost management for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was 281,964 months as compared to 111,867 months for the same period of 2015. The increase in membership volume was largely attributable to BPCI development, furthered enrollment in our ESCOs coupled with the ESCOs initial inclusion in the fourth quarter of 2015, growth in sub-capitation and our other shared savings arrangements as well as the continued contribution from MA-CSNPs which commenced in the first quarter of 2016. See note 4 to the table "Key Indicators and Business Metrics for North America Segment," above.

Medical Cost Under Management

       Care Coordination's medical cost under management for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was $2,036 million as compared to $965 million for the same period of 2015. The increase in medical cost under management was largely attributable to BPCI development, furthered enrollment in our ESCOs coupled with the ESCOs initial inclusion in the fourth quarter of 2015, growth in sub-capitation and our other shared savings arrangements as well as the continued contribution from MA-CSNPs which commenced in the first quarter of 2016. See note 4 to the table "Key Indicators and Business Metrics for North America Segment," above.

Care Coordination Patient Encounters

       Care Coordination's patient encounters for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 were 4,057,022 encounters and procedures as compared to 3,774,936 encounters and procedures for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The increase was driven by patient encounters and procedures provided by hospitalist and intensivist services, Rx BMM program, urgent care centers, vascular procedures as well as cardiovascular and endovascular services. See note 4 to the table "Key Indicators and Business Metrics for North America Segment," above.

New Care Coordination Activities

       In the second quarter of 2016, we expanded our Care Coordination activities with an investment in a physician practice which provides a professional fee capitation program for cardiology services. We will incorporate this new activity into our Care Coordination business metrics in the fourth quarter of 2016.

(6%), same market treatment growth (4%), and an increase in dialysis days (1%), partially offset by the negative impact of exchange rate fluctuations (4%), the effect of closed or sold clinics (1%) and decreases in organic revenue growth per treatment (1%). Dialysis treatments increased by 8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 over the same period in 2015 mainly due to contributions from acquisitions (5%) and same market treatment growth (4%), partially offset by the effect of closed or sold clinics (1%).

       Dialysis product revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 decreased by 2% (remained unchanged at Constant Exchange Rates) to $1,015 million as compared to $1,037 million in the same period of 2015. Dialysis product revenue was largely static at Constant Exchange Rates due to lower sales of renal pharmaceuticals, dialyzers and machines, mostly offset by increased sales of products for acute care treatments, bloodlines and hemodialysis solutions and concentrates.

Operating Income

       Operating income decreased to $395 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to $405 million for the same period in 2015. Operating income margin decreased to 19.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from 20.7% for the same period in 2015 mainly due to unfavorable foreign exchange effects, the prior year impact from a gain from the sale of our European marketing rights for certain renal pharmaceuticals and higher bad debt expense, partially offset by further sales development at Constant Exchange Rates.

Delivered EBIT

       Delivered EBIT decreased by 3% to $393 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to $403 million for the same period in 2015 due to decreased operating income.

       Total revenue for the Latin America Segment decreased by 10% (13% increase at Constant Exchange Rates) to $520 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to $576 million for the same period of 2015. Health care service revenue for the Latin America Segment decreased by 12% (16% increase at Constant Exchange Rates) during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 to $377 million as compared to $427 million for the same period of 2015. The health care service revenue decreased as a result of the negative effect of exchange rate fluctuations (28%) and the effect of closed or sold clinics (mainly in Venezuela) (8%), partially offset by increases in organic revenue per treatment (20%), growth in same market treatments (2%) and contributions from acquisitions (2%). Dialysis treatments decreased by 4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 over the same period in 2015 mainly due to the effect of closed or sold clinics (mainly in Venezuela) (8%), partially offset by same market treatment growth (2%), contributions from acquisitions (2%).

       Dialysis product revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 decreased by 4% (7% increase at Constant Exchange Rates) to $143 million compared to $149 million in the same period of 2015. The 7% increase at Constant Exchange Rates was driven by increased sales of dialyzers, hemodialysis solutions and concentrates and bloodlines, partially offset by lower sales of peritoneal dialysis products and machines.

Operating Income

       Operating income increased by 86% to $47 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to $25 million for the same period in 2015. Operating income margin increased to 9.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from 4.4% for the same period in 2015 mainly due the prior year loss from the divestment of the dialysis service business in Venezuela and the impact from higher revenue in the region, partially offset by unfavorable foreign exchange effects, higher costs mainly related to inflation and an unfavorable impact from manufacturing production costs driven by higher costs for quality development.

Delivered EBIT

       Delivered EBIT increased by 88% to $47 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as compared to $25 million for the same period in 2015 due to the impacts noted above in operating income.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

Nine months ended September 30, 2016 compared to nine months ended September 30, 2015

       Our primary sources of liquidity are typically cash provided by operating activities, cash provided by short-term debt from third parties and related parties, as well as proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt and equity securities. We require this capital primarily to finance working capital needs, fund acquisitions and joint ventures, develop free-standing renal dialysis clinics and other health care facilities, purchase equipment for existing or new renal dialysis clinics and production sites, repay debt and pay dividends (see "Net Cash Provided By (Used In) Investing Activities" and "Net Cash Provided By (Used In) Financing Activities" below).

       At September 30, 2016, we had cash and cash equivalents of $630 million. For information regarding utilization and availability of cash under our principal credit facility (the "Amended 2012 Credit Agreement") and our Accounts Receivable Facility, see Note 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited), "Long-term Debt and Capital Lease Obligations – Amended 2012 Credit Agreement," and "– Accounts Receivable Facility" included in this report.

Net Cash Provided By (Used In) Operating Activities

       In the first nine months of 2016 and 2015, we generated net cash provided by operating activities of $1,296 million and $1,412 million, respectively. Cash provided by operating activities is impacted by the profitability of our business, the development of our working capital, principally inventories, receivables and cash outflows that occur due to a number of specific items as discussed below. The decrease in 2016 versus 2015 was mainly a result of a $100 million discretionary contribution to pension plan assets in the United States, the timing of other working capital items, higher income tax payments due to both a tax refund in the comparable period of 2015 and increased earnings in the current period, partially offset by increased earnings and reduced inventory levels driven by decreased volume of health care supplies, particularly due to a decrease in erythropoietin-stimulating agents inventory.

       The profitability of our business depends significantly on reimbursement rates. Approximately 81% of our revenues are generated by providing health care services, a major portion of which is reimbursed by

either public health care organizations or private insurers. Legislative changes could affect reimbursement rates for a significant portion of the services we provide, as well as the scope of coverage. A decrease in reimbursement rates or the scope of coverage could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations and thus on our capacity to generate cash flow. See "Overview, Legislation and Growth," above.

       Our working capital, which is defined as current assets less current liabilities, was $1,965 million at September 30, 2016 which decreased from $2,619 million at December 31, 2015. The change is primarily the result of increased short-term debt due to issuance of short-term notes under our commercial paper program (see Note 4 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited), "Short-Term Debt and Short-Term Debt from Related Parties"), the reclassification of our dollar-denominated senior notes to current liabilities as these notes mature during the third quarter of 2017, increased accrued expenses and other current liabilities and short-term debt from related parties, partially offset by increased trade accounts receivable, the repayment of our Euro-denominated notes that matured in the third quarter of 2016 and increased cash and cash equivalents. Our ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 1.37 and 1.63 at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

       We intend to continue to address our current cash and financing requirements using cash provided by operating activities, our existing and future credit agreements, issuances under the Commercial Paper Program (See Note 4 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, "Short-Term Debt and Short-Term Debt from Related Parties," included in this report) as well as the issuance of debt securities. In addition, when funds are required for acquisitions or to meet other needs, we expect to successfully complete long-term financing arrangements, such as the issuance of senior notes. We aim to preserve financial resources with a minimum $500 million of committed and unutilized credit facilities.

       Cash provided by operating activities depends on the collection of accounts receivable. Commercial customers and governments generally have different payment cycles. A lengthening of their payment cycles could have a material adverse effect on our capacity to generate cash flow. In addition, we could face difficulties in enforcing and collecting accounts receivable under some countries' legal systems and due to the economic conditions in some countries. Accounts receivable balances, net of valuation allowances, represented Days Sales Outstanding ("DSO") of 72 at September 30, 2016, an increase as compared to 71 at December 31, 2015.

       DSO by segment is calculated by dividing the segment's accounts receivable, as converted to U.S. dollars using the average exchange rate for the period presented, less any value added tax included in the receivables, by the average daily sales for the last twelve months of that segment, as converted to U.S. dollars using the average exchange rate for the period. Receivables and sales are adjusted for amounts

       The DSO increase in the North America Segment is largely due to ordinary business fluctuations as well as an adjustment to invoicing practices within the quarter. The EMEA Segment's DSO increase reflects increased sales in the region coupled with fluctuations in payments of public health care organizations. The Asia-Pacific Segment's DSO decrease reflects an improvement of payment collections in China. The Latin America Segment's DSO increase reflects periodic delays in payment of public health care organizations in certain countries.

       Due to the fact that a large portion of our reimbursement is provided by public health care organizations and private insurers, we expect that most of our accounts receivable will be collectible.

Net Cash Provided By (Used In) Investing Activities

       We used net cash of $928 million and $759 million in investing activities in the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

       Capital expenditures for property, plant and equipment, net of proceeds from sales of property, plant and equipment were $734 million and $636 million in the first nine months of 2016 and 2015, respectively. In the first nine months of 2016, capital expenditures were $437 million in the North America Segment, $168 million at Corporate, $83 million for the EMEA Segment, $25 million for the Asia-Pacific Segment and $21 million for the Latin America Segment. Capital expenditures in the first nine months of 2015 were $328 million in the North America Segment, $179 million at Corporate, $81 million for the EMEA Segment, $25 million for the Asia-Pacific Segment and $23 million for the Latin America Segment. The majority of our capital expenditures were used for maintaining existing clinics, equipping new clinics, maintenance and expansion of production facilities (primarily in the North America Segment, Germany and France) and capitalization of machines provided to our customers and for Care Coordination. Capital expenditures were approximately 6% of total revenue in the first nine months of 2016 as compared to 5% for the same period in 2015.

       In addition to the capital expenditures discussed above, we invested approximately $387 million cash in the first nine months of 2016, $304 million in the North America Segment, $55 million in the EMEA Segment, $13 million in the Asia-Pacific Segment, $8 million at Corporate and $7 million in the Latin America Segment. The investment in the first nine months of 2016 is primarily related to acquisitions of

dialysis clinics, available for sale financial assets, acquisitions in our hospitalist and intensivist business, and a loan provided to an equity method investee in the North America Segment as well as the acquisition of dialysis clinics in the EMEA Segment, the Asia-Pacific Segment as well as the Latin America Segment. Additionally, during the first nine months of 2016, we received $193 million from divestitures, including approximately $111 million related to available for sale financial assets and an approximately $80 million repayment of unsecured loans provided to an equity method investee in 2015 and 2016. In the first nine months of 2015, we invested approximately $166 million cash, approximately $99 million in the North America Segment, $37 million in the EMEA Segment, $21 million at Corporate, $8 million in the Asia-Pacific Segment and $1 in the Latin America Segment. Additionally, during the nine months ended 2015, we received $42 million from divestitures, primarily driven by a $21 million repayment of an unsecured loan provided to an equity method investee in 2014, $10 million related to the sale of our European marketing rights for certain renal pharmaceuticals (See Note 2 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)) as well as $9 million from the sale of our plasma collection device manufacturing business to Fresenius Kabi USA, Inc.

       We anticipate capital expenditures of $1.0 to $1.1 billion and expect to make acquisitions of approximately $0.75 billion in 2016. See "Outlook" below.

Net Cash Provided By (Used In) Financing Activities

       Net cash used in financing activities was $318 million in the first nine months of 2016 compared to net cash used in financing activities of $634 million in the first nine months of 2015.

       In the nine-month period ended September 30, 2016, cash was mainly used for the repayments of long-term debt and capital lease obligations, payment of dividends, distributions to noncontrolling interests as well as repayments of short-term debt, partially offset by proceeds from short-term debt. In the first nine months of 2015, cash was mainly used for repayments of long-term debt, the payment of dividends, repayments of short-term debt, distributions to noncontrolling interests and a reduction in the Accounts Receivable facility, partially offset by proceeds from short-term debt, proceeds from the exercise of stock options and proceeds from short-term debt from related parties.

       On May 13, 2016, we paid a dividend with respect to 2015 of €0.80 per share (for 2014 paid in 2015 €0.78). The total dividend payment was €244 million ($277 million) as compared with €237 million ($263 million) in the prior year.

Non-U.S. GAAP Measures for Presentation

Constant Currency

       Changes in revenue include the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We use the non-GAAP financial measure at Constant Exchange Rates or Constant Currency in our filings to show changes in our revenue without giving effect to period-to-period currency fluctuations. Under U.S. GAAP, revenues received in local (non-U.S. dollar) currency are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rate for the period presented. Once we translate the local currency revenues for the Constant Currency, we then calculate the change, as a percentage, of the current period revenues using the prior period exchange rates versus the prior period revenues. This resulting percentage is a non-GAAP measure referring to a change as a percentage at Constant Currency.

       We believe that revenue growth is a key indication of how a company is progressing from period to period and that the non-GAAP financial measure Constant Currency is useful to investors, lenders, and other creditors because such information enables them to gauge the impact of currency fluctuations on a company's revenue from period to period. However, we also believe that the usefulness of data on Constant Currency period-over-period changes is subject to limitations, particularly if the currency effects that are eliminated constitute a significant element of our revenue and significantly impact our performance. We therefore limit our use of Constant Currency period-over-period changes to a measure for the impact of currency fluctuations on the translation of local currency revenue into U.S. dollars. We do not evaluate our results and performance without considering both Constant Currency period-over-period changes in non-U.S. GAAP revenue on the one hand and changes in revenue prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP on the other. We caution the readers of this report to follow a similar approach by considering data on Constant Currency period-over-period changes only in addition to, and not as a substitute for or superior to, changes in revenue prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We present the fluctuation derived from U.S. GAAP revenue next to the fluctuation derived from non-GAAP revenue. Because the reconciliation is inherent in the disclosure, we believe that a separate reconciliation would not provide any additional benefit.

Delivered EBIT

       As a result of the increase of noncontrolling interest holders in our operations, we believe a measure that is meaningful to investors is operating income less noncontrolling interests ("Delivered EBIT"). Delivered EBIT approximates the operating income attributable to the shareholders of FMC-AG & Co. KGaA. As such, we believe that operating income, or EBIT, is the closest comparable U.S. GAAP

Non-U.S. GAAP Measures

EBITDA

       EBITDA (earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization expenses) was approximately $2,424 million, 18.3% of revenues for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2016, and

34


Table of Contents


FRESENIUS MEDICAL CARE AG & Co. KGaA

Interim Report of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015

$2,202 million, 17.8% of revenues for the same period of 2015. EBITDA is the basis for determining compliance with certain covenants contained in our Amended 2012 Credit Agreement, euro-denominated notes and the indentures relating to our senior notes. You should not consider EBITDA to be an alternative to net earnings determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP or to cash flow from operations, investing activities or financing activities. In addition, not all funds depicted by EBITDA are available for management's discretionary use. For example, a substantial portion of such funds are subject to contractual restrictions and functional requirements for debt service, to fund necessary capital expenditures and to meet other commitments from time to time as described in more detail elsewhere in this report. EBITDA, as calculated, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. A reconciliation of EBITDA to cash flow provided by (used in) operating activities, which we believe to be the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, is calculated as follows:

Cash flow measures

       Our consolidated statement of cash flows indicates how we generated and used cash and cash equivalents. When used in conjunction with the other primary financial statements, it provides information that helps us evaluate the changes in our net assets and our financial structure (including our liquidity and solvency). The net cash provided by (used in) operating activities is used to assess whether our business can generate the cash required to make replacement and expansion investments. Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities is impacted by the profitability of our business and development of working capital, principally receivables. The financial key performance indicator of net cash provided by (used in) operating activities in percentage of revenue shows the percentage of our revenue that is available in terms of financial resources.

       Free cash flow is the cash flow provided by (used in) operating activities after capital expenditures for property, plant and equipment but before acquisitions and investments. The key performance indicator used by management is free cash flow as a percentage of revenue. This represents the percentage of revenue that is available for acquisitions, dividends to shareholders, or the reduction of debt financing.

Care Coordination Business Metrics for Presentation

       The measures for our North America Segment discussed below include current and future programs that we will be participating in and will be reflected in the discussion of our business within the North America Segment. Currently, only the sub-capitation, BPCI, ESCO programs and other shared savings programs are included within the Member Months and Medical Cost Under Management calculations below. In the future, there may be other programs that could be included in the following metrics. These metrics may be developed further in future periods. Note that due to the timing required by CMS to review the BPCI program data that we provide, estimates have been used in order to report these metrics in a timely manner. Capitation arrangements under physician practice services will be incorporated into our Care Coordination business metrics in the fourth quarter of 2016.

Member Months Under Medical Cost Management

       Member months under medical cost management is calculated by multiplying the number of members who are included in value-based reimbursement programs, such as Medicare Advantage plans or other value-based programs in the U.S., by the corresponding number of months these members participate in those programs ("Member Months"). In the aforementioned programs, we are assuming the risk of generating savings. The financial results will be recorded in earnings as our performance is determined. The membership offerings within Care Coordination are sub-capitation arrangements, MA-CSNPs, ESCO and BPCI programs as well as other shared savings programs. An increase in patient membership may indicate future earnings or losses as our performance is determined through these managed care programs.

Medical Cost Under Management

       Medical cost under management represents the management of medical costs associated with our patient membership in value-based programs. For ESCO, BPCI and other shared savings programs, this is calculated by multiplying the Member Months in each program by the benchmark of expected medical cost per member per month. The sub-capitation and MA-CSNPs calculation multiplies the premium per

member of the program per month by the number of Member Months associated with the plan, as noted above.

Care Coordination Patient Encounters

       Care Coordination patient encounters represents the total patient encounters and procedures conducted by certain of our Care Coordination activities. Specifically, Care Coordination patient encounters is the sum of all encounters and procedures completed during the period by Sound, MedSpring Urgent Care, Fresenius Vascular Care, and National Cardiovascular Partners as well as patients in our Rx BMM program.


Balance Sheet Structure

       Total assets as of September 30, 2016 increased to $26,658 million from $25,365 million as compared to December 31, 2015. Current assets as a percent of total assets remained flat at 27% at September 30, 2016 as compared to December 31, 2015. The equity ratio, the ratio of our equity divided by total liabilities and shareholders' equity, increased to 42% at September 30, 2016 as compared to 41% as of December 31, 2015.

Recently Implemented Accounting Pronouncements

       On February 18, 2015, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2015-02 ("ASU 2015-02"), Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis , which focuses on clarifying guidance related to the evaluation of various types of legal entities such as limited partnerships, limited liability corporations and certain security transactions for consolidation. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015. We have implemented ASU 2015-02. These types of legal entities are predominantly utilized in the U.S. The consolidation disclosures in Note 1 of our 2016 annual report on Form 20-F will include amended disclosures in relation to this ASU.

       On November 20, 2015, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2015-17 ("ASU 2015-17") Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes , which focuses on reducing the complexity of classifying deferred taxes on the balance sheet. ASU 2015-17 eliminates the current requirement for organizations to present deferred tax liabilities and assets as current and noncurrent in a classified balance sheet and requires the classification of all deferred tax assets and liabilities as noncurrent. The update is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2016. We adopted this ASU as of March 31, 2016. In accordance with ASU 2015-17, deferred taxes recorded as of December 31, 2015 within current assets and liabilities have been reclassified to noncurrent assets and liabilities in the amount of $216 million and $36 million, respectively. As a result of deferred tax netting, noncurrent assets and liabilities were then adjusted in the amount of $168 million.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

       On May 28, 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-09 ("ASU 2014-09"), Revenue from Contracts with Customers, Topic 606 . Simultaneously, the IASB published its equivalent revenue standard, "IFRS 15," Revenue from Contracts with Customers . The standards are the result of a convergence project between FASB and the IASB. This update specifies how and when companies reporting under U.S. GAAP will recognize revenue as well as providing users of financial statements with more informative and relevant disclosures. ASU 2014-09 supersedes some guidance included in topic 605, Revenue Recognition, some guidance within the scope of Topic 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment, and some guidance within the scope of Topic 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other. This ASU applies to nearly all contracts with customers, unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards (for example, lease contracts or insurance contracts). With the issuance of Accounting Standards Update 2015-14 ("ASU 2015-14"), Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date on August 12, 2015, the effective date of ASU 2014-09 for public business entities, among others, was deferred from fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2016 to fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2017. Earlier adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2014-09, in conjunction with all amendments, on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

       On January 5, 2016, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-01 ("ASU 2016-01") Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities . ASU 2016-01 focuses on improving the recognition and measurement of financial instruments to provide users of financial statements with more decision-useful information. ASU 2016-01 affects the accounting treatment and disclosures related to financial instruments and equity instruments. The update is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2017.

Earlier adoption is generally not permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-01 on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

       On February 25, 2016, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-02 ("ASU 2016-02") Leases (Subtopic 842) . ASU 2016-02 is expected to increase transparency and comparability by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities from lessees on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements in the financial statements. The lessor accounting is largely unchanged. The updates are effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2018. Early applications of the amendments in these updates are permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-02 on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

       On March 30, 2016, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-09 ("ASU 2016-09") Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting . ASU 2016-09 simplifies guidance with regard to income tax consequences for share-based payment transactions, classification of awards as equity or liabilities as well as cash flow impacts. The updates are effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-09 on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

       On June 16, 2016, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-13 ("ASU 2016-13") Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments . ASU 2016-13 amends guidance on reporting credit losses for assets held at amortized cost basis and available for sale financial assets. For Securities and Exchange Commission filers, these updates are effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted as of the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-13 on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

       The LTIP 2016 is a variable compensation program with long-term incentive effects. Pursuant to the LTIP 2016, the plan participants may be granted so-called "Performance Shares" annually or semiannually during 2016 to 2018. Performance Shares are non-equity, cash-settled virtual compensation instruments which may entitle plan participants to receive a cash payment depending on the achievement of pre-defined performance targets further defined below as well as the Company's share price development.

       For members of the Management Board, the Supervisory Board will, in due exercise of its discretion and taking into account the individual responsibility and performance of each Management Board member, determine an initial value for each grant for any awards to Management Board members. For plan participants other than the members of the Management Board, such determination will be made by the Management Board. In order to determine the number of Performance Shares each plan participant receives, their respective grant value will be divided by the value per Performance Share at the time of the grant, which is mainly determined based on the average price of the Company's shares over a period of thirty calendar days prior to the respective grant date. The number of granted Performance Shares may change over the performance period of three years, depending on the level of achievement of the following: (i) revenue growth, (ii) growth in net income attributable to shareholders of FMC-AG & Co. KGaA ("net income growth") and (iii) return on invested capital ("ROIC") improvement.

       Revenue, net income and ROIC are determined according to IFRS in Euro based on full year results. Revenue growth and net income growth, for the purpose of this plan, are determined at constant currency.

       An annual target achievement level of 100% will be reached for the revenue growth performance target if revenue growth is 7% in each individual year of the three-year performance period; revenue growth of 0% will lead to a target achievement level of 0% and the maximum target achievement level of 200% will be reached in the case of revenue growth of at least 16%. If revenue growth ranges between these values, the degree of target achievement will be linearly interpolated between these values.

       An annual target achievement level of 100% for the net income growth performance target will be reached if net income growth is 7% in each individual year of the three-year performance period. In the case of net income growth of 0%, the target achievement level will also be 0%; the maximum target achievement of 200% will be reached in the case of net income growth of at least 14%. Between these values, the degree of target achievement will be determined by means of linear interpolation.

       With regard to ROIC improvement, an annual target achievement level of 100% will be reached if the target ROIC as defined for the respective year is reached. The target ROIC is 7.3% for 2016 and will increase by 0.2 percentage points per year to 7.5% (2017), 7.7% (2018), 7.9% (2019) and 8.1% (2020). A target achievement level of 0% will be reached if the ROIC falls below the target ROIC for the respective year by 0.2 percentage points or more, whereas the maximum target achievement level of 200% will be reached if the target ROIC for the respective year is exceeded by 0.2 percentage points or more. The degree of target achievement will be determined by means of linear interpolation if the ROIC ranges between these values. In case the annual ROIC target achievement level in the third year of a performance period is equal or higher than the ROIC target achievement level in each of the two previous years of such performance period, the ROIC target achievement level of the third year is deemed to be achieved for all years of the respective performance period.

       The achievement level for each of the three performance targets will be weighted annually at one-third to determine the yearly target achievement for each year of the three-year performance period. The level

(in thousands, except share and per share data)

of overall target achievement over the three-year performance period will then be determined on the basis of the mean of these three average yearly target achievements. The overall target achievement can be in a range of 0% to 200%.

       The number of Performance Shares granted to the plan participants at the beginning of the performance period will each be multiplied by the level of overall target achievement in order to determine the final number of Performance Shares.

       The final number of Performance Shares is generally deemed earned four years after the day of a respective grant (the vesting period). The number of such vested Performance Shares is then multiplied by the average Company share price over a period of thirty days prior to the lapse of this four-year vesting period. The respective resulting amount will then be paid to the plan participants as cash compensation. For further detail regarding the terms and conditions of the LTIP 2016 please see exhibit 4.25 of this report.

       The first awards under the Long-Term Incentive Plan 2016 were granted on July 25, 2016. The Company awarded 633,967 Performance Shares, the equivalent in Euros at the grant date being €48,689 ($53,470), including 79,888 Performance Shares or €6,135 ($6,738) awarded to the members of the Management Board of the Management AG.

on May 20, 2013 and was completed on August 14, 2013 after 7,548,951 shares had been repurchased in the amount of €384,966 ($505,014). On February 16, 2016, the Company retired 6,549,000 of the repurchased shares from the buy-back program at an average weighted price of €51 per share ($57 per share on February 16, 2016).

8.    Employee Benefit Plans

       The Company currently has two principal pension plans, one for German employees, the other covering employees in the United States, the latter of which was curtailed in 2002. Plan benefits are generally based on years of service and final salary. As there is no legal requirement in Germany to fund defined benefit plans, the Company's pension obligations in Germany are unfunded. Each year FMCH contributes to the plan covering United States employees at least the minimum required by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.

       The following table provides the calculations of net periodic benefit cost for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

       During the three months ended September 30, 2016, the Company made a discretionary cash contribution of $100,000 to its pension plan assets in the United States.

9.    Noncontrolling Interests Subject to Put Provisions and Other Temporary Equity

       The Company has potential obligations to purchase the noncontrolling interests held by third parties in certain of its consolidated subsidiaries. These obligations are in the form of put provisions and are exercisable at the third-party owners' discretion within specified periods as outlined in each specific put provision. If these put provisions were exercised, the Company would be required to purchase all or part of third-party owners' noncontrolling interests at the appraised fair value at the time of exercise. The methodology the Company uses to estimate the fair values of the noncontrolling interest subject to put provisions assumes the greater of net book value or a multiple of earnings, based on historical earnings, development stage of the underlying business and other factors. Additionally, there are put provisions that are valued by an external valuation firm. The external valuation estimates the fair values using a combination of discounted cash flows and a multiple of earnings and/or revenue. The estimated fair values of the noncontrolling interests subject to these put provisions can also fluctuate, the discounted cash flows

(in thousands, except share and per share data)

and the implicit multiple of earnings and/or revenue at which these noncontrolling interest obligations may ultimately be settled could vary significantly from our current estimates depending upon market conditions.

       At September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company's potential obligations under these put options were $1,216,801 and $1,023,755. At September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, put options with an aggregate purchase obligation of $293,192 and $258,552, respectively, were exercisable. Two put options were exercised for a total consideration of $740 during the first nine months of 2016.

       The following is a roll forward of noncontrolling interests subject to put provisions for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and the year ended December 31, 2015:

 
  September 30,
2016
  December 31,
2015
 
Beginning balance as of January 1,   $ 1,023,755   $ 824,658

       In addition to the amounts in the table above, Other Temporary Equity related to subsidiary stock incentive plans was $5,842 and $4,613 as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

10.    Sources of Revenue

       Outside of the U.S., the Company does not recognize patient service revenue at the time the services are rendered without assessing the patient's ability to pay. Accordingly, the additional disclosure requirements introduced with ASU 2011-07 apply solely to U.S. patient service revenue. Below is a table showing the sources of our U.S. patient service revenue (net of contractual allowance and discounts but before patient service bad debt provision), included in the Company's Health Care revenue, for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015.

 
  2016   2015  
Medicare program   $ 3,991,859   $ 3,759,692

11.    Commitments and Contingencies

Legal and Regulatory Matters

       The Company is routinely involved in claims, lawsuits, regulatory and tax audits, investigations and other legal matters arising, for the most part, in the ordinary course of its business of providing health care services and products. Legal matters that the Company currently deems to be material or noteworthy are described below. For the matters described below in which the Company believes a loss is both reasonably possible and estimable, an estimate of the loss or range of loss exposure is provided. For the other matters described below, the Company believes that the loss probability is remote and/or the loss or range of possible losses cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. The outcome of litigation and other legal matters is always difficult to predict accurately and outcomes that are not consistent with the Company's view of the merits can occur. The Company believes that it has valid defenses to the legal matters pending against it and is defending itself vigorously. Nevertheless, it is possible that the resolution of one or more of the legal matters currently pending or threatened could have a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations and financial condition.

Commercial Litigation

       On April 5, 2013, the U.S. Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation ordered that the numerous lawsuits pending in various federal courts alleging wrongful death and personal injury claims against FMCH and certain of its affiliates relating to FMCH's acid concentrate products NaturaLyte® and GranuFlo® be transferred and consolidated for pretrial management purposes into a consolidated multidistrict litigation in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts. See , In Re: Fresenius Granuflo/Naturalyte Dialysate Products Liability Litigation, Case No. 2013-md-02428. The Massachusetts state courts and the St. Louis City (Missouri) court subsequently established similar consolidated litigation for such cases filed in Massachusetts county courts and St. Louis City court. See , In Re: Consolidated Fresenius Cases, Case No. MICV 2013-03400-O (Massachusetts Superior Court, Middlesex County). These lawsuits allege generally that inadequate labeling and warnings for these products caused harm to patients. In addition, similar cases have been filed in other state courts. On February 17, 2016, the Company reached with a committee of plaintiffs' counsel and reported to the courts an agreement in principle for settlement of potentially all cases. The agreement in principle calls for the Company to pay $250,000 into a settlement fund in exchange for releases of all or substantially all of the plaintiffs' claims, subject to the Company's right to void the settlement under certain conditions, including if more than 3% of all plaintiffs reject the settlement or the distribution of rejecters meet certain criteria. As subsequently amended with the courts' approval as to the applicable timetable, plaintiffs must advise FMCH of acceptance of the settlement by November 7, 2016; the Company has until November 15, 2016 to exercise any rights to void the settlement; and payment of the settlement amount must be made in November 2016 if the settlement is confirmed. The Company's affected insurers have agreed to fund $220,000 of the settlement fund, with a reservation of rights regarding certain coverage issues between and among the Company and its insurers. The Company has accrued a net expense of $60,000 for consummation of the settlement, including legal fees and other anticipated costs.

       Subsequent to the agreement in principle, the Company's insurers in the AIG group initiated an action for declaratory judgment in New York state court advancing various arguments for reducing the amount of their coverage obligations. The Company filed an action in Massachusetts state court seeking to compel the AIG group carriers to honor their obligations under applicable policies, including reimbursement to the Company of litigation defense costs incurred before the agreement in principle was reached. The

affected carriers have confirmed that the coverage litigation does not impact their commitment to fund $220,000 of the settlement with plaintiffs.

       Certain of the complaints in the Granuflo®/Naturalyte® litigation named combinations of FMC-AG & Co. KGaA, FMC Management AG, Fresenius SE and Fresenius Management SE as defendants, in addition to FMCH and its domestic United States affiliates. The agreement in principle provides for dismissals and releases of claims encompassing the European defendants.

       Four institutional plaintiffs have filed complaints against FMCH or its affiliates under state deceptive practices statutes resting on certain background allegations common to the GranuFlo®/NaturaLyte® personal injury litigation, but seeking as remedy the repayment of sums paid to FMCH attributable to the Granuflo®/Naturalyte® products. These cases implicate different legal standards, theories of liability and forms of potential recovery from those in the personal injury litigation and their claims will not be extinguished by the personal injury litigation settlement described above. The four plaintiffs are the Attorneys General for the States of Kentucky, Louisiana and Mississippi and the commercial insurance company Blue Cross Blue Shield of Louisiana in its private capacity. See , State of Mississippi ex rel. Hood, v. Fresenius Medical Care Holdings, Inc., No. 14-cv-152 (Chancery Court, DeSoto County); State of Louisiana ex re. Caldwell and Louisiana Health Service & Indemnity Company v. Fresenius Medical Care Airline, 2016 Civ. 11035 (U.S.D.C. D. Mass.); Commonwealth of Kentucky ex rel. Beshear v. Fresenius Medical Care Holdings, Inc. et al., No. 16-CI-00946 (Circuit Court, Franklin County).

Other Litigation and Potential Exposures

       On February 15, 2011, a whistleblower (relator) action under the False Claims Act against FMCH was unsealed by order of the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts and served by the relator. See , United States ex rel. Chris Drennen v. Fresenius Medical Care Holdings, Inc., 2009 Civ. 10179 (D. Mass.). The United States did not intervene initially in the case. The relator's complaint, which was first filed under seal in February 2009, alleged that the Company sought and received reimbursement from government payors for serum ferritin and multiple forms of hepatitis B laboratory tests that were medically unnecessary or not properly ordered by a physician. Discovery on the relator's complaint closed in May 2015. On October 2, 2015, the United States Attorney moved to intervene on the relator's complaint with respect only to certain Hepatitis B surface antigen tests performed prior to 2011, when Medicare reimbursement rules for such tests changed. FMCH opposed the government's motion to intervene, which remains undecided.

       On October 6, 2015, the Office of Inspector General of the United States Department of Health and Human Services ("OIG") issued a subpoena to the Company seeking information about utilization and invoicing by Fresenius Vascular Care facilities as a whole for a period beginning after the Company's acquisition of American Access Care LLC in October 2011 ("AAC"). The Company is cooperating in the government's inquiry, which is being managed by the United States Attorney for the Eastern District of New York. Allegations against AAC arising in districts in Connecticut, Florida and Rhode Island relating to utilization and invoicing were settled in 2015.

       The Company has received communications alleging conduct in countries outside the U.S. and Germany that may violate the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act ("FCPA") or other anti-bribery laws. The Audit and Corporate Governance Committee of the Company's Supervisory Board is conducting investigations with the assistance of independent counsel. The Company voluntarily advised the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and the U.S. Department of Justice ("DOJ"). The Company's investigations and dialogue with the SEC and DOJ are ongoing. The Company is cooperating with the government investigations.

       Conduct has been identified that may result in monetary penalties or other sanctions under the FCPA or other anti-bribery laws. In addition, the Company's ability to conduct business in certain jurisdictions could be negatively impacted. The Company has previously recorded a non-material accrual for an identified matter. Given the current status of the investigations and remediation activities, the Company cannot reasonably estimate the range of possible loss that may result from identified matters or from the final outcome of the investigations or remediation activities.

       The Company is implementing enhancements to its anti-corruption compliance program, including internal controls related to compliance with international anti-bribery laws. The Company continues to be fully committed to FCPA and other anti-bribery law compliance.

       In August 2014, FMCH received a subpoena from the United States Attorney for the District of Maryland inquiring into FMCH's contractual arrangements with hospitals and physicians, including contracts relating to the management of in-patient acute dialysis services. FMCH is cooperating in the investigation.

       In July 2015, the Attorney General for Hawaii issued a civil complaint under the Hawaii False Claims Act alleging a conspiracy pursuant to which certain Liberty subsidiaries of FMCH overbilled Hawaii Medicaid for Liberty's Epogen® administrations to Hawaii Medicaid patients during the period from 2006 through 2010, prior to the time of FMCH's acquisition of Liberty. See , Hawaii v. Liberty Dialysis – Hawaii, LLC et al., Case No. 15-1-1357-07 (Hawaii 1 st  Circuit). The State alleges that Liberty acted unlawfully by relying on incorrect and unauthorized billing guidance provided to Liberty by Xerox State Healthcare LLC, which acted as Hawaii's contracted administrator for its Medicaid program reimbursement operations during the relevant period. The amount of the overpayment claimed by the State is approximately $8,000, but the State seeks civil remedies, interest, fines, and penalties against Liberty and FMCH under the Hawaii False Claims Act substantially in excess of the overpayment. FMCH filed third-party claims for contribution and indemnification against Xerox. The State's False Claims Act complaint was filed after Liberty initiated an administrative action challenging the State's recoupment of alleged overpayments from sums currently owed to Liberty. The administrative action is continuing.

       On August 31 and November 25, 2015, respectively, FMCH received subpoenas from the United States Attorneys for the District of Colorado and the Eastern District of New York inquiring into FMCH's participation in and management of dialysis facility joint ventures in which physicians are partners. FMCH is cooperating in the investigations.

       On June 30, 2016, FMCH received a subpoena from the United States Attorney for the Northern District of Texas (Dallas) seeking information about the use and management of pharmaceuticals including Velphoro® as well as FMCH's interactions with DaVita Healthcare Partners, Inc. The Company

understands that the subpoena relates to an investigation previously disclosed by DaVita and that the investigation encompasses DaVita, Amgen, and Sanofi. FMCH is cooperating in the investigation.

       From time to time, the Company is a party to or may be threatened with other litigation or arbitration, claims or assessments arising in the ordinary course of its business. Management regularly analyzes current information including, as applicable, the Company's defenses and insurance coverage and, as necessary, provides accruals for probable liabilities for the eventual disposition of these matters.

       The Company, like other healthcare providers, insurance plans and suppliers, conducts its operations under intense government regulation and scrutiny. It must comply with regulations which relate to or govern the safety and efficacy of medical products and supplies, the marketing and distribution of such products, the operation of manufacturing facilities, laboratories, dialysis clinics and other health care facilities, and environmental and occupational health and safety. With respect to its development, manufacture, marketing and distribution of medical products, if such compliance is not maintained, the Company could be subject to significant adverse regulatory actions by the FDA and comparable regulatory authorities outside the U.S. These regulatory actions could include warning letters or other enforcement notices from the FDA, and/or comparable foreign regulatory authority which may require the Company to expend significant time and resources in order to implement appropriate corrective actions. If the Company does not address matters raised in warning letters or other enforcement notices to the satisfaction of the FDA and/or comparable regulatory authorities outside the U.S., these regulatory authorities could take additional actions, including product recalls, injunctions against the distribution of products or operation of manufacturing plants, civil penalties, seizures of the Company's products and/or criminal prosecution. FMCH is currently engaged in remediation efforts with respect to one pending FDA warning letter. The Company must also comply with the laws of the United States, including the federal Anti-Kickback Statute, the federal False Claims Act, the federal Stark Law, the federal Civil Monetary Penalties Law and the federal Foreign Corrupt Practices Act as well as other federal and state fraud and abuse laws. Applicable laws or regulations may be amended, or enforcement agencies or courts may make interpretations that differ from the Company's interpretations or the manner in which it conducts its business. Enforcement has become a high priority for the federal government and some states. In addition, the provisions of the False Claims Act authorizing payment of a portion of any recovery to the party bringing the suit encourage private plaintiffs to commence whistleblower actions. By virtue of this regulatory environment, the Company's business activities and practices are subject to extensive review by regulatory authorities and private parties, and continuing audits, subpoenas, other inquiries, claims and litigation relating to the Company's compliance with applicable laws and regulations. The Company may not always be aware that an inquiry or action has begun, particularly in the case of whistleblower actions, which are initially filed under court seal.

       The Company operates many facilities and handles personal health information of its patients and beneficiaries throughout the United States and other parts of the world. In such a decentralized system, it is often difficult to maintain the desired level of oversight and control over the thousands of individuals employed by many affiliated companies. The Company relies upon its management structure, regulatory and legal resources, and the effective operation of its compliance program to direct, manage and monitor the activities of these employees. On occasion, the Company may identify instances where employees or other agents deliberately, recklessly or inadvertently contravene the Company's policies or violate applicable law. The actions of such persons may subject the Company and its subsidiaries to liability under the Anti-Kickback Statute, the Stark Law, the False Claims Act, Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act and the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, among other laws and comparable laws of other countries.

       Physicians, hospitals and other participants in the healthcare industry are also subject to a large number of lawsuits alleging professional negligence, malpractice, product liability, worker's compensation or related claims, many of which involve large claims and significant defense costs. The Company has been and is currently subject to these suits due to the nature of its business and expects that those types of lawsuits may continue. Although the Company maintains insurance at a level which it believes to be prudent, it cannot assure that the coverage limits will be adequate or that insurance will cover all asserted claims. A successful claim against the Company or any of its subsidiaries in excess of insurance coverage could have a material adverse effect upon it and the results of its operations. Any claims, regardless of their merit or eventual outcome, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's reputation and business.

       The Company has also had claims asserted against it and has had lawsuits filed against it relating to alleged patent infringements or businesses that it has acquired or divested. These claims and suits relate both to operation of the businesses and to the acquisition and divestiture transactions. The Company has, when appropriate, asserted its own claims, and claims for indemnification. A successful claim against the Company or any of its subsidiaries could have a material adverse effect upon its business, financial condition, and the results of its operations. Any claims, regardless of their merit or eventual outcome, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's reputation and business.

       The Company is also subject to ongoing and future tax audits in the U.S., Germany and other jurisdictions. With respect to other potential adjustments and disallowances of tax matters currently under review, the Company does not anticipate that an unfavorable ruling could have a material impact on its results of operations. The Company is not currently able to determine the timing of these potential additional tax payments.

       Other than those individual contingent liabilities mentioned above, the current estimated amount of the Company's other known individual contingent liabilities is immaterial.

(2) Includes long-term accounts receivable, which are included in "Other assets" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

(3) Available for sale financial assets are included in "Prepaid expenses and other current assets" and "Other assets" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

       The carrying amounts in the table are included in the Consolidated Balance Sheets under the indicated captions, or in the case of long-term debt and noncontrolling interests subject to put provisions, in the captions shown in Note 5 and Note 9.

       The significant methods and assumptions used in estimating the fair values of non-derivative financial instruments are as follows:

       Cash and cash equivalents are stated at nominal value which equals the fair value.

       Short-term financial instruments such as accounts receivable, accounts payable and short-term debt are valued at their carrying amounts, which are reasonable estimates of the fair value due to the relatively short period to maturity of these instruments.

(in thousands, except share and per share data)

       The fair value of available for sale financial assets quoted in an active market is based on price quotations at the period-end date.

       The fair values of major long-term financial liabilities are calculated on the basis of market information. Instruments for which market quotes are available are measured using these quotes. The fair values of the other long-term financial liabilities are calculated at the present value of the respective future cash flows. To determine these present values, the prevailing interest rates and credit spreads for the Company as of the balance sheet date are used.

       The valuation of noncontrolling interests subject to put provisions is determined using significant unobservable inputs. See Note 9 for a discussion of the Company's methodology for estimating the fair value of these noncontrolling interests subject to put obligations.

       Currently, there is no indication that a decrease in the value of the Company's financing receivables is probable. Therefore, the allowances on credit losses of financing receivables are immaterial.


Derivative Financial Instruments

       The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in foreign exchange rates and interest rates. In order to manage the risk of currency exchange rate and interest rate fluctuations, the Company enters into various hedging transactions by means of derivative instruments with highly rated financial institutions as authorized by the Company's General Partner. On a quarterly basis, the Company performs an assessment of its counterparty credit risk. The Company currently considers this risk to be low. The Company's policy, which has been consistently followed, is that financial derivatives be used only for the purpose of hedging foreign currency and interest rate exposure.

       In certain instances, the Company enters into derivative contracts that do not qualify for hedge accounting but are utilized for economic purposes ("economic hedges"). The Company does not use financial instruments for trading purposes.

       The Company established guidelines for risk assessment procedures and controls for the use of financial instruments. They include a clear segregation of duties with regard to execution on one side and administration, accounting and controlling on the other.

       To reduce the credit risk arising from derivatives the Company concluded Master Netting Agreements with banks. Through such agreements, positive and negative fair values of the derivative contracts could be offset against one another if a partner becomes insolvent. This offsetting is valid for transactions where the aggregate amount of obligations owed to and receivable from are not equal. If insolvency occurs, the party which owes the larger amount is obliged to pay the other party the difference between the amounts owed in the form of one net payment.

       The Company elects not to offset the fair values of derivative financial instruments subject to master netting agreements in its Consolidated Balance Sheets.

       At September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had $8,285 and $24,366, respectively, of derivative financial assets subject to netting arrangements and $27,189 and $12,765, respectively, of derivative financial liabilities subject to netting arrangements. Offsetting these derivative financial instruments would have resulted in net assets of $3,488 and $16,273 as well as net liabilities of $22,392 and $4,672 at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

       In connection with the issuance of the equity-neutral convertible bonds in September 2014, the Company purchased share options. Any change in the Company's share price above the conversion price would be offset by a corresponding value change in the share options.

Foreign Exchange Risk Management

       The Company conducts business on a global basis in various currencies, though a majority of its operations are in Germany and the United States. For financial reporting purposes, the Company has chosen the U.S. dollar as its reporting currency. Therefore, changes in the rate of exchange between the U.S. dollar and the local currencies in which the financial statements of the Company's international operations are maintained affect its results of operations and financial position as reported in its consolidated financial statements.

       Additionally, individual subsidiaries are exposed to transactional risks mainly resulting from intercompany purchases between production sites and other subsidiaries with different functional currencies. This exposes the subsidiaries to fluctuations in the rate of exchange between the invoicing currencies and the currency in which their local operations are conducted. For the purpose of hedging existing and foreseeable foreign exchange transaction exposures the Company enters into foreign exchange forward contracts and, on a small scale, foreign exchange options. At September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had no foreign exchange options.

       Changes in the fair value of the effective portion of foreign exchange forward contracts designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges of forecasted product purchases and sales are reported in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income ("AOCI"). Additionally, in connection with intercompany loans in foreign currency, the Company uses foreign exchange swaps thus assuring that no foreign exchange risks arise from those loans, which, if they qualify for cash flow hedge accounting, are also reported in AOCI. These amounts recorded in AOCI are subsequently reclassified into earnings as a component of cost of revenues for those contracts that hedge product purchases and sales or as an adjustment of interest income/expense for those contracts that hedge loans, in the same period in which the hedged transaction affects earnings. The notional amounts of foreign exchange contracts in place that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges totaled $138,148 and $193,880 at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

       The Company also enters into derivative contracts for forecasted product purchases and sales and for intercompany loans in foreign currencies which do not qualify for hedge accounting but are utilized for economic hedges as defined above. In these two cases, the change in value of the economic hedge is recorded in the income statement and usually offsets the change in value recorded in the income statement for the underlying asset or liability. The notional amounts of economic hedges that do not qualify for hedge accounting totaled $1,143,247 and $1,637,129 at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

Interest Rate Risk Management

       The Company enters into derivatives, particularly interest rate swaps and to a certain extent, interest rate options, to protect against the risk of rising interest rates. These interest rate derivatives are designated as cash flow hedges and have been entered into in order to effectively convert payments based on variable interest rates into payments at a fixed interest rate. The euro-denominated interest rate swaps expire between 2016 and 2019 and have a weighted average interest rate of 0.72%. Interest payable and receivable under the swap agreements is accrued and recorded as an adjustment to interest expense.

       At September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the notional amount of the euro-denominated interest rate swaps in place was €358,000 and €376,000 ($399,564 and $409,351 at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively).

       In addition, the Company also enters into interest rate hedges ("pre-hedges") in anticipation of future long-term debt issuance, from time to time. These pre-hedges are used to hedge interest rate exposures with regard to interest rates which are relevant for the future long-term debt issuance and which could rise until the respective debt is actually issued. These pre-hedges were settled at the issuance date of the corresponding long-term debt with the settlement amount recorded in AOCI amortized to interest expense over the life of the debt. At September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had $45,118 and $58,581, respectively, related to such settlements of pre-hedges deferred in AOCI, net of tax.

(1) At September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the valuation of the Company's derivatives was determined using Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) in accordance with the fair value hierarchy levels established in U.S. GAAP.

(2) Derivative instruments are marked to market each reporting period resulting in carrying amounts being equal to fair values at the reporting date.

       The carrying amounts for the current portion of derivatives indicated as assets in the table above are included in Prepaid expenses and other current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets while the current portion of those indicated as liabilities are included in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities. The non-current portions indicated as assets or liabilities are included in the Consolidated Balance Sheets in Other assets or Other liabilities, respectively.

       The significant methods and assumptions used in estimating the fair values of derivative financial instruments are as follows:

       The fair value of interest rate swaps is calculated by discounting the future cash flows on the basis of the market interest rates applicable for the remaining term of the contract as of the balance sheet date. To determine the fair value of foreign exchange forward contracts, the contracted forward rate is compared to

(in thousands, except share and per share data)

the current forward rate for the remaining term of the contract as of the balance sheet date. The result is then discounted on the basis of the market interest rates prevailing at the balance sheet date for the applicable currency. The fair value of the embedded derivative of the convertible bonds is calculated using the difference between the market value of the convertible bond and the market value of an adequate straight bond discounted with the market interest rates as of the reporting date.

       The Company's own credit risk is incorporated in the fair value estimation of derivatives that are liabilities. Counterparty credit risk adjustments are factored into the valuation of derivatives that are assets. The Company monitors and analyses the credit risk from derivative financial instruments on a regular basis. For the valuation of derivative financial instruments, the credit risk is considered in the fair value of every individual instrument. The default probability is based upon the Credit Default Swap Spreads of each counterparty appropriate for the duration. The calculation of the credit risk considered in the valuation is performed by multiplying the default probability appropriate for the duration with the expected discounted cash flows of the derivative financial instrument.

        $ 31,058   $ (39,997 )

       For foreign exchange derivatives at September 30, 2016, the Company expects to recognize $1,232 of losses deferred in AOCI in earnings during the next twelve months.

       The Company expects to incur additional interest expense of $21,886 over the next twelve months which is currently deferred in AOCI. This amount reflects the projected amortization of the settlement amount of the terminated swaps and the current fair value of the additional interest payments resulting from the interest rate swaps maturing between 2016 and 2019 at September 30, 2016.

       At September 30, 2016, the Company had foreign exchange derivatives with maturities of up to 18 months and interest rate swaps with maturities of up to 37 months.

14.    Segment and Corporate Information

       The Company's operating segments are the North America Segment, the EMEA Segment, the Asia-Pacific Segment and the Latin America Segment. Management evaluates each segment using measures that reflect all of the segment's controllable revenues and expenses. With respect to the performance of business operations, management believes that the most appropriate U.S. GAAP measures are revenue, operating income and operating income margin. The Company does not include income taxes as it believes this is outside the segments' control. Financing is a corporate function, which the Company's segments do not control. Therefore, the Company does not include interest expense relating to financing as a segment measurement. Similarly, the Company does not allocate certain costs, which relate primarily to certain headquarter overhead charges, including accounting and finance, because the Company believes that these costs are also not within the control of the individual segments. Production of products, production asset management, quality management and procurement related to production are centrally managed at Corporate. The Company's global research and development is also centrally managed at Corporate. These Corporate activities do not fulfill the definition of a segment. Products are transferred to the segments at cost; therefore no internal profit is generated. The associated internal revenues for the product transfers and their elimination are recorded as Corporate activities. Capital expenditures for production are based on the expected demand of the segments and consolidated profitability considerations. In addition, certain revenues, investments and intangible assets, as well as any related expenses, are not allocated to a segment but are accounted for at Corporate.

Controls and Procedures

       The Company is a "foreign private issuer" within the meaning of Rule 3b-4(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). As such, the Company is not required to file quarterly reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission and is required to provide an evaluation of the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures, to disclose significant changes in its internal control over financial reporting, and to provide certifications of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer under Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 only in its Annual Report on Form 20-F. The Company furnishes quarterly financial information to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") and such certifications under cover of Form 6-K on a voluntary basis and pursuant to the provisions of the Company's pooling agreement entered into for the benefit of the public holders of our shares. In connection with such voluntary reporting, the Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of the Company's general partner, has conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report, of the type contemplated by Securities Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded in connection with the furnishing of this report, that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that the information the Company is required to disclose in the reports filed or furnished under the Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms and are effective to ensure that the information the Company is required to disclose in its reports is accumulated and communicated to the General Partner's Management Board, including the General Partner's Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. During the past fiscal quarter, there have been no significant changes in internal controls, or in factors that could significantly affect internal controls. See Item 15B. "Management's annual report on internal control over financial reporting" in the Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2015 for more information regarding the effectiveness and inherent limitations over internal controls.

       During the three-month period ended September 30, 2016, our Audit and Corporate Governance Committee continued its investigation, with the assistance of independent counsel, into allegations of conduct outside of the North America Segment that may violate the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act or other anti-bribery laws. For information with respect to compliance investigations, see Note 11 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited), "Commitments and Contingencies – Legal and Regulatory Matters – Other Litigation and Potential Exposures," presented elsewhere in this Report. The Company is implementing enhancements to its anti-corruption compliance program, including internal controls related to compliance with international anti-bribery laws.

Preamble

 

(A)                             Reference is made to the Pooling Agreement entered into on 13 February 2006 between FSE KGaA (in its previous legal form as Fresenius AG), FMC Management AG as well as Messrs. Walter L. Weisman and John G. Kringel in their capacity as Independent Directors (the “ Pooling Agreement ”). The Pooling Agreement is attached hereto as Annex . Unless explicitly defined otherwise in this Amendment, all capitalized terms used herein shall have the same meaning as assigned to them in the Pooling Agreement.

 

(B)                             Pursuant to Clause 7 (c) of the Pooling Agreement, any amendment to the Pooling Agreement must be made in writing and signed by or on behalf of FSE KGaA, FMC Management AG and the Independent Directors and also requires the approval of at least 75% of FMC KGaA’s shareholders (other than FSE KGaA and its affiliated companies) represented at a general meeting.

 

(C)                             Based on respective resolution proposals by the supervisory board of FMC KGaA and FMC Management AG’s management board, the annual general meeting of FMC KGaA held on 12 May 2016 (“ AGM ”) resolved under its agenda item 10 to amend Clause 5 (c) and Clause 5 (d) of the Pooling Agreement. This amendment was made in order to allow for a higher degree of flexibility with regard to FMC KGaA’s financial reporting standards applied to the preparation of its financial statements and other financial information filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The amendment was approved by a majority of 99,96% of FMC KGaA’s shareholders (other than FSE KGaA and its affiliated companies) represented at the AGM.

 

(D)                             In light of this resolution by the AGM, the Parties wish to fulfill the remaining formal requirements for an amendment of the Pooling Agreement as stipulated by Clause 7 (c) of the Pooling Agreement by entering into this written Amendment.

 

NOW THEREFORE, the Parties agree as follows:

 

1                                       Amendment of Clause 5 (c) and Clause 5 (d) of the Pooling Agreement

 

1.1                             Clause 5 (c) and Clause 5 (d) of the Pooling Agreement are amended to read as follows:

 

„5. Listing of American Depositary Shares; SEC Filings . During the term of this Agreement, Fresenius AG and FMC Management AG shall use their best efforts as sole shareholder of FMC Management AG and general partner of FMC KGaA, respectively, to cause FMC KGaA to, and FMC KGaA shall:

 



 

[…]

 

(c)           prepare all financial statements required to be included in any Securities Filings in accordance with US GAAP or the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”);

 

(d)           on an annual basis, prepare audited consolidated financial statements including, without limitation, a balance sheet, a statement of operations and a statement of cash flows, and all appropriate notes, all in accordance with US GAAP or IFRS and, on a quarterly basis, prepare and furnish to the SEC consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP or IFRS under cover of form 6-K or a comparable successor form;

 

[…].”

 

1.2                             Except for the amendments made in Section 1.1 above, the Pooling Agreement shall remain unchanged.

 

1.3                             The amendments made in Section 1.1 above shall be effective as of the date all Parties have signed this Amendment.

 

2                                       Severability

 

Should any provision of this Amendment be or become invalid, ineffective or unenforceable as a whole or in part, the validity, effectiveness and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not be affected thereby. Any such invalid, ineffective or unenforceable provision shall be deemed replaced by such valid, effective and enforceable provision as comes closest to the economic intent and the purpose of such invalid, ineffective or unenforceable provision as regards subject-matter, amount, time, place and extent as far as the law permits. The aforesaid shall apply mutatis mutandis to any gap in this Amendment.

 

3                                       Governing Law

 

This Amendment shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of Germany, excluding the German conflicts of laws rules and further excluding the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG).

1.                                       Preamble and Purpose

 

1.1                                The management board (the Management Board ) and the supervisory board (the Supervisory Board ) of Fresenius Medical Care Management AG (the General Partner ), the general partner of Fresenius Medical Care AG & Co. KGaA (the Company ), decided to establish the Fresenius Medical Care Long Term Incentive Plan 2016 (the Plan ) to grant virtual performance-based shares of the Company (the Performance Shares ) to the members of the Management Board, to members of the management boards of Affiliated Companies and to managerial staff members ( Führungskräfte ) of the Company and of Affiliated Companies (each a Participant ). The Performance Shares may entitle the Participants to receive a cash payment from the Company subject to the following provisions.

 

1.2                                The Plan contains the requirements, terms and conditions as well as the procedures for the grant and settlement of Performance Shares (the Plan Conditions ) and has been adopted by the Management Board and, insofar as members of the Management Board are entitled under this Plan, by the Supervisory Board.

 

1.3                                The purpose of this Plan is to align the interests of the Participants with the interests of the Company and its shareholders in encouraging the long term and sustainable growth of the Company. This Plan offers the Participants a competitive and transparent compensation component which combines the long term benefits for the Participants with the sustained success of the Company.

 

1.4                                Capitalized terms used in this Plan but not defined in the body of the Plan are defined in Clause 15.

 

2.                                       Eligibility to receive Performance Shares

 

2.1                                The eligibility of Participants to receive Performance Shares will be finally determined by the Management Board and, insofar as members of the Management Board are concerned, by the Supervisory Board, in each case — i.e. for each grant — in accordance with the terms of this Plan.

 

2.2                                This Plan does not establish and should not be read or construed so as to establish a legal right to receive Performance Shares. Neither the status or possible status of an employee or a member of the management within FME Group as Participant nor the fact that a Participant was granted Performance Shares in previous periods shall be interpreted as an obligation that Performance Shares shall be granted or, if

 

3



 

granted, shall continue to be granted in the future. In particular, granting Performance Shares does not constitute an operational practice ( betriebliche Übung ), even if Performance Shares have been granted for several successive years.

 

3.                                       Performance Shares

 

3.1                                Performance Shares issued under the Plan may entitle a Participant to receive a cash payment from the Company or from any Affiliated Company in accordance with the Plan Conditions.

 

3.2                                A Performance Share is a non-equity, cash-settled virtual compensation instrument. The Performance Shares will not be evidenced by certificates. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, nothing in this Plan, any grant of Performance Shares, the achievement of any Performance Target for any Performance Shares or the vesting of any Performance Shares shall entitle any Participant to receive shares of the Company or confer upon or be interpreted as conferring upon any Participant any right or interest whatsoever as a shareholder of the Company or of any other member of the FME Group including, but not limited to, the right to vote at, to receive notice of, or to attend any meeting of shareholders of any member of the FME Group or any other proceedings of any such FME Group member, or the right to dividends or other distributions.

 

4.                                       Grant of Performance Shares

 

4.1                                Subject to final determination by the Management Board and, insofar as members of the Management Board are concerned, by the Supervisory Board, the Participants will be granted Performance Shares within a time period of three years starting with 1 January 2016. Performance Share grants may be made twice a year with effect as of the last Monday in July and the first Monday in December (each a Grant Date ). The Grant Date can, however, be subject to deviation in case of objective grounds ( sachliche Gründe ), as may be decided by the Supervisory Board with respect to Performance Shares granted to the members of the Management Board, or for all other grants by the Management Board.

 

4.2                                Each Participant will be awarded an individual Grant Value in the currency in which the Participant receives his base salary (the Grant Currency ) from the Company or an Affiliated Company at the time when the Grant Value is determined by the Company or the General Partner (the Grant Value ). To determine the number of Performance Shares to be granted to the respective Participant (the Number of Granted Performance Shares ) the Grant Value

 

4



 

denominated in the Grant Currency will then be converted into Euro based on the average Foreign Currency Exchange Rates over a period of 30 (thirty) calendar days prior to each Grant Date (the FX Rates at Grant Date ) and divided by the value per Performance Share at Grant Date. The value per Performance Share will be determined in accordance with IFRS 2 on each respective Grant Date, denominated in Euro, and considering the average Stock Exchange Price over a period of 30 (thirty) calendar days prior to such Grant Date. For the avoidance of doubt, the Number of Granted Performance Shares will be rounded up or down to the next closest integer number (e.g. 124.54 will result in 125). The amount of the individual Grant Value shall be determined on the basis of the Participant’s individual performance and the Participant’s responsibilities within FME Group. This determination will be made for each grant at the Management Board’s discretion and, insofar as members of the Management Board are concerned, at the Supervisory Board’s discretion.

 

4.3                                The grant of Performance Shares will be made without any payment by the Participant.

 

4.4                                The grant shall be communicated to the Participants in text form, i.e. by mail, email or via an online platform. No grant shall be effective unless and until it is communicated to the Participant.

 

5.                                       Performance Targets

 

5.1                                Based on the degree of attainment of three pre-determined financial targets (the Performance Targets ) the number of Performance Shares to vest can vary from 0% to 200% of the Number of Granted Performance Shares. The three Performance Targets are:

 

(a)                        Revenue Growth

 

(b)                        Net Income Growth and

 

(c)                         Return on Invested Capital improvement.

 

5.2                                The achievement of the respective Performance Targets in relation to each grant of Performance Shares is measured over a performance period of three years starting from the beginning of the calendar year in which the respective grant was made (the Performance Period ) and is determined as follows:

 

(a)                                  Revenue Growth shall mean the annual growth of revenues of the Company determined following the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) using the Company’s consolidated reported and audited figures in Euro for the financial statements prepared in accordance with

 

5



 

IFRS. The growth rates for the former are determined at Constant Currency.

 

For Revenue Growth, a target achievement of 100% is reached at an average annual Revenue Growth throughout the Performance Period of 7%. For Revenue Growth between 0% to 7% and 7% to 16% the target achievement is linearly interpolated — see Figure 1. The target achievement for this Performance Target is capped at 200% for each year of the Performance Period.

In case of changes to IFRS accounting principles in the first year in which such policies become effective the relevant figures of the respective prior year as restated according to such policies should form the basis for the determination of the growth in revenues. If such restatements will not be made, pro forma figures for the relevant year in which such changes become effective for the first time shall be calculated under the old regime with reasonable effort to determine the Revenue Growth.

 

(b)                                  Net Income Growth shall mean the annual growth of Net Income attributable to the shareholders of the Company determined in accordance with IFRS using the reported and audited figures in Euro for the financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS. The growth rates for the former are determined at Constant Currency.

 

For Net Income Growth, a target achievement of 100% is reached at an average annual Net Income Growth throughout the Performance Period of 7%. For a Net Income Growth between 0% to 7% and 7% to 14% the target achievement is linearly interpolated — see Figure 2. The target achievement for this Performance Target is capped at 200% for each year of the Performance Period.

Figure 2 - Net Income Growth

 

In case of changes to IFRS accounting principles in the year in which such policies become effective the relevant restated figures of the prior year should form the basis for the determination of the Net Income Growth. If such restatements will not be made, pro forma figures for the relevant year in which such changes become effective for the first time shall be calculated under the old regime with reasonable effort to determine the Net Income Growth.

 

(c)                                   Return on Invested Capital (ROIC) improvement shall mean the improved yearly level of the ROIC based on the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements determined in accordance with IFRS.

 

The ROIC is measured against a target ROIC (the Target ROIC ) defined for each year throughout the Performance Period. The Target ROIC is defined as the ROIC level at which a target achievement of 100% will be reached. For 2016 the Target ROIC is 7.3%. For the respective consecutive years the Target ROIC will increase by 0.2%-points each year, i.e. to 7.5% for 2017, 7.7% for 2018, 7.9% for 2019 and 8.1% in 2020. The respective Target ROICs are shown in Figure 3.

Figure 3 Target ROICs throughout the Performance Period

 

The target achievement will be 0% in case the ROIC of the respective year will be 0.2%-points below the Target ROIC for such year. Accordingly, a ROIC target achievement of 200% will apply in case the ROIC for a respective year will be 0.2%-points above the Target ROIC for such year. For ROIC levels between 0.2%-points below the Target ROIC, the Target ROIC and 0.2%-points above the Target ROIC, the respective ROIC target achievement will be calculated by means of linear interpolation — see Figure 4. The target achievement for this Performance Target is capped at 200% for each year of the Performance Period.

In case that the annual ROIC target achievement in the third year of a respective Performance Period is equal or higher than each annual ROIC target achievement of such respective Performance Period, the annual ROIC target achievement of the third year shall be applied for the determination of the Yearly Target Achievements, as defined in Clause

 

8



 

5.3, for the first and the second year of such respective Performance Period.

 

In case of changes to IFRS accounting principles, the Target ROIC shall be adjusted for the year in which such policies become effective for the first time as well as for the relevant consecutive years.

 

5.3                                The achievement of the Performance Targets is determined annually, as described in Clause 5.2, and for each year of the Performance Period and as soon as the Company’s audited figures for such respective year are available (the Yearly Target Achievement ); for this purpose, the three Performance Targets are weighted equally (i.e. 1/3, 1/3, 1/3).

 

Example:

 

 

5.4                                The overall target achievement (the Overall Target Achievement ) for each respective grant of Performance Shares is calculated by taking the average of the Yearly Target Achievements of the respective Performance Period; for this purpose each Yearly Target Achievement is weighted equally (i.e. 1/3, 1/3, 1/3).

 

9



 

Example:

 

 

5.5                                The total number of Performance Shares attributable to each Participant pursuant to Clauses 4.2 and 5.1 to vest (the Number of Performance Shares to Vest ) is calculated by multiplying the Number of Granted Performance Shares with the Overall Target Achievement.

 

Example:

 

 

5.6                                The individual figures for each Performance Target shall be rounded using commercial rounding to the second decimal place of the percentage figure (e.g. 8.1523% will result in 8.15%). The Yearly Target Achievement and the Overall Target Achievement shall be rounded using commercial rounding to the next integer in percentage points (e.g. 129.93% will result in 130%). Similarly, the number of Performance Shares to Vest shall be commercially rounded to the next integer number (e.g. 162.5 will result in 163).

 

10


 

6.                                       Vesting of Performance Shares

 

6.1                                Vesting Date

 

Subject to the terms of this Plan, the Performance Shares will vest on the date of the fourth anniversary of the respective Grant Date (the Vesting Date ). Exceptions or modifications may apply in special cases described in Clause 8.

 

6.2                                Service Condition

 

For the vesting of Performance Shares the Participant must continuously have been in an employment or service relationship with FME Group from the Grant Date to the Vesting Date (the Service Condition ). In case the Service Condition has not been fulfilled in full or in part, the respective Performance Shares are forfeited on the date on which the employment or service relationship of the Participant with FME Group ends. Exceptions or modifications may apply in special cases described in Clause 8 hereinafter.

 

7.                                       Settlement of Performance Shares

 

7.1                                One Performance Share carries the entitlement to receive a cash equivalent of the average Stock Exchange Price over a period of 30 (thirty) calendar days prior to the Vesting Date, as defined hereinafter (the Performance Shares Proceeds ). Such cash payment will be made on the Vesting Date, or as soon thereafter as is reasonably practicable. Payment to a Participant who is a US taxpayer shall in all cases be made no later than 2-1/2 months following the end of the calendar year in which the Service Condition established in Clause 6.2 is met or is deemed to have been met (whether pursuant to Clause 8.1(b) or for any other reason). The Participant shall be informed of the Number of Performance Shares to Vest and the corresponding cash payments in text form, i.e. by mail, email or via an online platform.

 

7.2                                Performance Shares Proceeds are paid to the Participant in the currency in which the Participant receives his base salary from the Company or an Affiliated Company in the month of the Vesting Date (the Settlement Currency ). For this purpose the respective FX Rates at Grant Date shall be applied. The purpose of applying the FX Rates at Grant Date is to mitigate exposure to Participants’ grants arising from exchange rate fluctuations between the Grant Date and the Vesting Date. In cases of Extraordinary Developments, such as hyperinflation, the Management Board or, insofar as members of the Management Board are

 

11



 

concerned, the Supervisory Board, is entitled to adjust the FX Rates at Grant Date to the benefit of the Participants.

 

7.3                                Following and based on the determination of the Number of Performance Shares to Vest, each Participant shall receive the Performance Shares Proceeds pursuant to Clause 7.1 and Clause 7.2. Clause 10 and Clause 11.2 remain unaffected.

 

Example for a Participant to be paid in Euro:

 

 

8.                                       Performance Shares in Special Cases

 

8.1                                Leaving on Age Grounds

 

(a)                                  If the Participant retires from employment or service with the Company or an Affiliated Company within the FME Group by reaching the minimum required age for retirement and without having been dismissed, the Participant’s entitlement to the Performance Shares shall vest on the respective Vesting Date and not be forfeited. Occupational disability and early retirement shall be equivalent to such retirement. The Participant is obligated to give evidence to the Company or an office named by the Company of the occurrence of a case of occupational disability within three months following the occurrence of such event. Otherwise, the Management Board or, insofar as the members of the Management Board are concerned, the Supervisory Board may declare the Performance Shares to be forfeited.

 

(b)                                  This Clause 8.1(b) shall apply instead of Clause 8.1(a) with respect to Participants who are US taxpayers, and shall apply notwithstanding any other contrary Plan provisions. If a Participant remains employed within the FME Group and experiences a Special Vesting Event (as later defined in this Clause), the Participant’s entitlement to the Performance Shares according to this Plan remains unaffected by any subsequent

 

12



 

severance from employment, and payment shall be made as described in this Clause 8.1(b). After a Participant experiences a Special Vesting Event, the portion of Performance Shares for which the Performance Targets are achieved during a calendar year shall be vested and such Participant shall be deemed to meet the Service Condition established under Clause 6.2. The resulting Performance Shares Proceeds shall then be paid in accordance with Clauses 7.1 and 7.2; provided however, that (i) the “Vesting Date” solely for purposes of Clauses 7.1 and 7.2 shall be considered to be March 1 of the year following the calendar year for which the Performance Targets were met, and (ii) the use of audited figures as required under Clause 5.2 shall be waived if they are not available as of the payment date, and the Company’s consolidated, but not yet audited, figures shall be used to determine the amount of the Performance Proceeds, as determined by the Management Board or, insofar as the members of the Management Board are concerned, the Supervisory Board. The Service Condition shall be deemed to have been met for each of the other portions of the Performance Shares for which the Performance Targets are achieved in the following calendar years of the Performance Period. Payments related to such subsequent calendar years shall be made as set forth above. For Participants other than members of the Management Board working under a service contract with an Affiliated Company, the combination of attaining age 55 and earning 10 years of continuous service within the FME Group shall be a Special Vesting Event. For Participants who are members of the Management Board working under a service contract with an Affiliated Company, a Special Vesting Event shall occur with the combination of attaining age 55, earning 10 years of continuous service within the FME Group and upon the final expiration of the service contract that was in place as of the Grant Date, but only if such expiration occurs prior to the Participant’s normal Vesting Date under Clause 6.1. For all Participants covered by this Clause 8.1(b), a Special Vesting Event shall also include the Participant’s occupational disability while employed, provided that the Participant provides satisfactory evidence of such disability to the Company or an office named by the Company within three months following the occurrence of such disability. In the absence of such notice and satisfactory evidence, the Management Board or, insofar as the members of the Management Board are concerned, the Supervisory Board, may declare the Performance Shares to be forfeited.

 

13



 

8.2                                Ordinary Termination / Cancellation of Employment by Agreement

 

Except as otherwise provided herein, if a Participant’s employment or service relationship with FME Group has ended by termination or agreement, all Performance Shares not vested on the effective date of the termination or the agreement are forfeited.

 

8.3                                Death

 

In case of death of a Participant, Clause 8.1 (Leaving on Age Grounds) applies accordingly. The Heirs of the Participant are entitled to receive the Performance Shares Proceeds if they give evidence of their entitlement to the Company or an office named by the Company within three months after the death of the Participant; otherwise, the Management Board or, insofar as members of the Management Board are concerned, the Supervisory Board may declare the Performance Shares to be forfeited. Clause 8.4 (Termination for Cause) remains unaffected. With respect to Heirs of Participants who had been US taxpayers the legal consequences and effects stated under Clause 8.1(b) shall apply.

 

8.4                                Termination for Cause

 

Notwithstanding Clauses 8.1 (Leaving on Age Grounds), 8.2 (Ordinary Termination / Cancellation of Employment by Agreement) and 8.3 (Death), all Performance Shares shall be forfeited if the Participant’s employment or service agreement was terminated by the employer for good cause, or if at the time of leaving, there were grounds which would have entitled the employer to terminate the employment agreement or service agreement for good cause.

 

8.5                                Engagement with Fresenius Group

 

The Performance Shares shall not be affected by the transfer of a Participant’s engagement from the Company or from an Affiliated Company to Fresenius SE & Co. KGaA or to an affiliated company of Fresenius SE & Co. KGaA within the meaning of sections 15 et seqq. of the German Stock Corporation Act ( Aktiengesetz ), including Fresenius Management SE.

 

8.6                                Effect of Change in Status as Affiliated Company

 

If a Participant is employed by a company which ceases to be an Affiliated Company or, in the case of a transfer of a Participant’s engagement referred to in Clause 8.5, an affiliated company of Fresenius SE & Co. KGaA, all Performance Shares granted to the Participant shall be forfeited.

 

14



 

8.7                                Effect of Change in Status as General Partner

 

If the General Partner ceases to exercise the function of the Company’s general partner, all Performance Shares granted to a Participant employed by the General Partner shall be forfeited.

 

8.8                                Individual Cases

 

In individual cases, the Management Board or, insofar as the members of the Management Board are concerned, the Supervisory Board can waive or amend the provisions of this Clause 8, taking duly into account the Company’s interests.

 

9.                                       No Transferability / Forfeiture

 

Performance Shares granted under this Plan and Performance Shares inherited according to Clause 8.3 are not transferable. Any other purported transfer, assignment or disposal of Performance Shares, such as the granting of sub-participations therein, pledging, granting usufruct rights ( Nießbrauch ) or the formation of a trust, shall be void and invalid. The same applies to legal transactions which are economically equal to a transfer or assignment.

 

10.                                Taxes, Contributions and other Expenses

 

10.1                         General

 

Performance Shares Proceeds are considered gross. Any entitlements or benefits under this Plan may be subject to income tax, social security taxes and other taxes and contributions. This also depends on the legislation of the country where the Participant stays, resides or is subject to tax for other reasons. All taxes incurred in connection with the Plan shall be borne by the Participant, excluding taxes and contributions which are by law borne by the employer. The Company and any Affiliated Companies, as the case may be, are entitled to withhold and remit such taxes and contributions in accordance with the respective applicable laws.

 

10.2                         Section 162 (m) U.S. Internal Revenue Code

 

If the Supervisory Board, in its sole discretion, determines at the request of the Management Board that the limitations on deductions under section 162(m) U.S. Internal Revenue Code (the IRC ) may apply to Performance Shares granted to

 

15



 

Participants hereunder, the Supervisory Board shall be entitled to decide upon the grant of Performance Shares made to such Participants.

 

11.                                Procedure, Ending and Adjustment of the Plan

 

11.1                         Unless otherwise provided in this Plan, the Plan shall be interpreted, waived, adjusted or otherwise administered, and may be amended or modified, for the members of the Management Board by the Supervisory Board and all Performance Shares granted to members of the Management Board will be approved by the Supervisory Board. Otherwise, the Plan shall be interpreted, waived, adjusted or otherwise administered, and may be amended or modified, by the Management Board and all Performance Shares granted to Participants other than members of the Management Board will be approved by the Management Board. Adjustments to the Plan may also be made with regard to Performance Shares which have already been granted, provided that this does not affect the value of the Performance Shares or that the Participant is fully compensated for any financial loss suffered. For the avoidance of doubt, any such adjustments with regard to Performance Shares which have already been granted should not result in a retroactive reduction or lowering of relevant performance target levels pursuant to this Plan.

 

11.2                         In case of Extraordinary Developments the Management Board or, insofar as members of the Management Board are concerned, the Supervisory Board is entitled to cap grants of Performance Shares and/or Performance Shares Proceeds to be paid to the Participants under the Plan.

 

11.3                         Furthermore, the Management Board or, insofar as the members of the Management Board are concerned, the Supervisory Board, is entitled to determine in certain cases, based on its respective reasonable discretion, that any extraordinary commercial, tax or similar impacts that may occur during any relevant Performance Period affecting the level of Yearly Target Achievement and/or Overall Target Achievement in relation to individual grants shall in full or in part be disregarded for purposes of determining Yearly Target Achievement and/or Overall Target Achievement pursuant to this Plan in relation to such grants.

 

11.4                         The Management Board or, insofar as the members of the Management Board are concerned, the Supervisory Board is entitled to end the Plan with effect for all Participants at any time. In this case, the Performance Shares already granted to the Participants remain unaffected.

 

16



 

11.5                         If the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to the Company’s material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under the U.S. federal securities laws, the Company shall be entitled to recover to the full extent required under then current and applicable law and or applicable stock exchange listing rules from current and former executive officers of the Company (including, but not limited to members of the Management Board) who received any bonus or other incentive-based compensation based on the erroneous data during the period or periods defined in such law that precede the date the Company is required to prepare the accounting restatement, (i) the amount of such bonus or other incentive-based compensation in excess of what would have been paid to the executive officer under the accounting restatement and (ii) such other amounts, if any, as may be recoverable by applicable law.

 

11.6                         The Plan shall be construed, interpreted and administered to comply with Section 409A of the IRC so as to avoid any Performance Shares resulting in “deferred compensation” to any Participant. The Management Board or, insofar as the members of the Management Board are concerned, the Supervisory Board, may exercise its right to adjust the Plan pursuant to Clause 11.1 above in order to preserve the intended tax consequences of the Performance Shares as not constituting deferred compensation under Section 409A of the IRC and any regulations or other guidance promulgated thereunder. The same applies with regard to tax disadvantages the Company or Participants may suffer according to rules and regulations of any other jurisdiction.

 

12.                                Liability Risks, Exchange Risks and Tax Risks

 

12.1                         The liability of the Company, its legal representatives, employees and agents for simple negligence and consequential loss and loss of profit is excluded.

 

12.2                         The Company grants no warranty for the general market development and price of the shares of the Company after granting Performance Shares or for any other point or period in time. Therefore, the acceptance of Performance Shares is at the sole risk of each Participant.

 

12.3                         The Company grants no warranty that the tax and contributions deducted in accordance with Clause 10 (Taxes, Contributions and other Expenses) or other tax and contributions payable by the Participants will be charged only on the Performance Shares Proceeds. Depending on a Participant’s personal circumstances, double taxation might occur if the Plan is subject to taxation in several countries. The Participants are advised to obtain advice on their personal tax situation.

 

17



 

13.                                Term of the Plan

 

This Plan will be effective as of 1 January 2016 and shall apply to grants of Performance Shares in financial years 2016, 2017 and 2018. The Plan will terminate following the payout of any Performance Shares Proceeds for the last grant made in financial year 2018. Clauses 11.1 and 11.4 remain unaffected.

 

14.                                Miscellaneous Provisions

 

14.1                         This Plan is subject to German law. The German text version of the Plan shall prevail in all cases.

 

14.2                         No provisions contained in this Plan (or in any documents referring to this Plan) transfer to a Participant or possible Participant any right to request the continuation of its employment or service relationship with the Company or any Affiliated Company. No employment or service agreement can be deducted from this Plan (or from any documents referring to this Plan), nor shall it have any effect on the right of the Company or any Affiliated Company to change compensation or other benefits of such Participant or to terminate its employment relationship with or without notice. This applies subject to the provision that this Plan or any document connected therewith will adversely influence any independent contractual right of these persons.

 

14.3                         If any provision of this Plan is invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions of the Plan shall not be affected. The same applies if it is ascertained that the Plan is subject to an omission. In these cases, this paragraph shall apply to the effect that the invalid or unenforceable provision shall be substituted or an omission repaired by such provision which most closely corresponds to the intended purpose of this Plan.

 

14.4                         References and headings attributed to individual Clauses and Sub-clauses of this Plan are solely for the purpose of easier reference. These headings are in no case significant or relevant for the interpretation of the Plan.

 

14.5                         No provision in this Plan leads to or infers a presumption that the authority of the Management Board or the authority of the Supervisory Board to issue Performance Shares or approve other compensation connected or not connected to shares granted by any other share based long term incentive program or any other authority may in any way be restricted.
