1.1
Summary of the Prospectus

in sections A E (A.1 E.7).

Aktiengesellschaft and its subsidiaries) since 31 December 2014 has occurred: On
19 October 2015, OMV announced that it has decided to review and amend its oil
price assumptions for both the short and longer term. These revised assumptions led
to impairments of EUR 974 million recognized in the third quarter of 2015 in the
Upstream business, covering both assets under production and development, as well
as exploration assets.

Ranking of the Notes:
the Notes
The obligations of the Issuer under the Notes constitute unsecured obligations of the
Issuer which in an insolvency or liquidation of the Issuer rank (i) pari passu among
themselves and with any Parity Obligation, (ii) subordinated to all present and
future unsubordinated and subordinated obligations of the Issuer (other than Parity
Obligations and Junior Obligations), and (iii) senior only to all present and future
Junior Obligations.
"Parity Obligation" means any present or future obligation of the Issuer arising
under (i) any present or future security, registered security or other instrument and
such obligation ranks or is expressed to rank pari passu with the Issuer's obligations
under the Notes, and (ii) any guarantee or other assumption of liability by the Issuer
which it has assumed in relation to any present or future security, registered security
or other instrument issued by a Subsidiary of the Issuer if the Issuer's obligations
under such guarantee or other assumptions of liability rank or are expressed to rank
pari passu with its obligations under the Notes. For the avoidance of doubt, this
shall also include the Issuer's EUR 750,000,000 Perpetual Subordinated Fixed to
Floating Rate Notes issued in 2011 (ISIN XS0629626663).
"Subsidiary" means any entity whose financial statements at any time are required
by law or in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles to be fully
consolidated with those of the Issuer (Vollkonsolidierung).
"Junior Obligations" means each claim against the Issuer arising under (i) the
ordinary shares of the Issuer, (ii) any present or future share of any other class of
shares of the Issuer, (iii) any other present or future security, registered security or
other instrument issued by the Issuer under which the Issuer's obligations rank or
are expressed to rank pari passu with the ordinary shares of the Issuer and (iv) any
guarantee or other assumption of liability by the Issuer which it has assumed in
relation to any present or future security, registered security or other instrument
issued by a Subsidiary of the Issuer if the Issuer's obligations under such guarantee
or other assumption of liability rank or are expressed to rank pari passu with the
instruments described under (i), (ii) and (iii) above.

Prohibition of set-off:
No Holder may set-off any claims arising under the Notes against any claims that
the Issuer may have against it. The Issuer may not set-off any claims it may have
against any Holder against any of its obligations under the Notes.
Redemption at the option of the Issuer:
The Issuer may elect but will not be obliged to redeem the NC6 Notes in whole but
not in part with effect as of (i) any business day during the 90 calendar days period
up to and including 9 December 2021 (the "NC6 First Call Date"), (ii) on
9 December 2026 and (iii) on any Interest Payment Date thereafter.
The Issuer may elect but will not be obliged to redeem the NC10 Notes in whole but
not in part with effect as of (i) any business day during the 90 calender days period
up to and including on 9 December 2025 (the "NC10 First Call Date" and, together
with the NC6 First Call Date, each a "First Call Date") and (ii) on any Interest
Payment Date thereafter.
In the case such call notice is given, the Issuer shall redeem each Note at its
principal amount plus any interest accrued on the Note to but excluding the date of
redemption but yet unpaid and any deferred interest payments payable on the
specified redemption date.
Redemption at the option of the Issuer following certain events:
The Issuer may elect but will not be obliged to redeem each Series in whole but not
in part at any time upon the occurrence of the following redemption events: (i) a
gross-up event, (ii) accounting event; (iii) a tax event, (iv) a rating event; (v) a
change of control event or (vi) if, as a result of the Issuer or any Subsidiary having
purchased or redeemed Notes only 25 per cent. or less of the aggregate principal
amount of such Series of Notes initially issued are outstanding, all as defined and
further specified in the terms and conditions of the Notes.
A "Gross-up Event" will occur if an opinion of a recognised tax adviser, acting
upon instructions of the Issuer, has been delivered to the principal paying agent,
stating that the Issuer has or will become obliged to pay additional amounts as a
result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws or regulations of the Republic of
Austria or any political subdivision or any authority thereof or therein affecting
taxation or the obligation to pay duties of any kind, or any change in, or amendment
to, an official interpretation or application of such laws or regulations, which
amendment or change is effective after the issue date, and that obligation cannot be
avoided by the Issuer taking such reasonable measures it (acting in good faith)
deems appropriate. No such notice of early redemption may be given earlier than 90
days prior to the earliest date on which the Issuer would be for the first time obliged
to pay the additional amounts. In the case such call notice is given, the Issuer shall
redeem each Note of the relevant Series at the principal amount plus any interest
accrued on the Note of the relevant Series to but excluding the date of redemption
but yet unpaid and any deferred interest payments payable on the specified
redemption date.
An "Accounting Event" shall occur if a recognised accountancy firm of
international standing, acting upon instructions of the Issuer, has delivered an
opinion to the principal paying agent, stating that as a result of a change in
accounting principles, or interpretation thereof, after the issue date the funds raised
through the issuance of the Notes must not or must no longer be recorded as
"equity" pursuant to the International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") or
any other accounting standards that may replace IFRS for the purposes of the annual
consolidated financial statements of the Issuer.
A "Tax Event" will occur if an opinion of a recognised tax adviser, acting upon
instructions of the Issuer, has been delivered to the principal paying agent, stating
that as a result of any amendment to, or change in, the laws or regulations of the
Republic of Austria or any political subdivision or any taxing authority thereof or
therein affecting taxation or the obligation to pay duties of any kind, or any change
in, or amendment to, an official interpretation or application of such laws or
regulations, which amendment or change is effective after the issue date, interest
