'The exceeding of the voting rights thresholds is not due to the acquisition of shares by the Notifying Party, but rather due to the first-time attribution of voting rights from shares of a subsidiary of the Notifying Party (Section 34 (1) sentence 1 no. 1 WpHG).

2. Origin of the funds used for the acquisition:

The acquisition of voting rights is not due to the Notifying Party acquiring shares in the issuer, but rather due to the attribution of voting rights in accordance with Section 34 (1) sentence 1 no. 1 WpHG. No equity or borrowed funds were used to finance the acquisition of voting rights.'
