* In connection with the revision of the Swiss corporate law, a capital band between a lower limit of CHF 55,800,000 and an upper limit of CHF 74,380,000 shall be introduced, instead of the current authorized capital of CHF 5,000,000 which authorized the board of directors to raise the nominal share capital from CHF 61,985,597 to CHF 66,985,597 until 18 May 2024.
