It is divided into 6,650,000 registered A shares with a nominal value of CHF 5 per share and 6,750,000 registered B shares with a nominal value of CHF 1 per share (voting right shares). The share capital is fully paid in.

Limitations on transferability and nominee registrations
According to article 7 of the articles of association, the transfer of registered B shares is always subject to the approval of the board of directors, irrespective of the form in which these shares were issued. The board of directors may reject such a request for good reason – primarily to protect the purpose of the company and to maintain its economic independence (article 9 of the articles of association). In particular, this includes the transfer of registered B shares to a competitor and a fiduciary transfer if the acquirer does not inform the board of directors in writing at its first request that she or he is acquiring the shares concerned in her or his own name and for her or his own account. Furthermore, the board of directors may refuse its approval if it offers to the seller or acquirer of the registered B shares that it will acquire these shares for the account of the company, other shareholders or third parties for at least their actual value at the time the request was made (article 8 of the articles of association). If there is good reason to do so, the board of directors may grant exceptions to these rules (no exceptions have been granted in the reporting year 2023). However, transfer requests containing incorrect information must always be rejected; a new, corrected request may subsequently be submitted (article 9 of the articles of association). For the incorporation or tightening of transferability restrictions, at least two-thirds of the votes represented and an absolute majority of the represented nominal share value are required for a decision. These provisions also apply for registered B shares, which are acquired (subscribed) by the exercise of subscription, option or conversion rights, and for the establishment of usufruct of registered B shares.

Nominee registrations
According to article 6 of the articles of association, the acquirer of a registered A share is entered in the share register with voting rights provided that she or he confirms that this share is held in her or his own name and for her or his own account.

Up to a registration limit of 0.5 percent of the total number of registered A shares entered in the commercial register, anyone who does not expressly state that she/ he is acting on her or his own account shall be acknowledged as being a nominee with voting rights. Beyond this registration limit, anyone who makes known to Bossard Holding AG the name, address and/or registered office of the person for whose account she/he holds more than 0.5 percent of the total number of registered A shares entered in the commercial register, shall be acknowledged as being a nominee with voting rights. Otherwise the acquirers of registered A shares shall be acknowledged or registered as shareholders without voting rights. The board of directors makes the necessary arrangements for the acknowledgment and registration of acquirers of registered A shares, and particularly also of nominees. These provisions also apply to registered A shares that have been acquired by exercising subscription, option or conversion rights as well as to the creation of rights of usufruct to registered A shares.

Outstanding bonds and options
Bossard Holding AG currently has no bonds or convertible bonds outstanding. Information on conditional rights to receive registered A shares of Bossard Holding AG (outstanding options respectively restricted stock units/ RSUs) according to the management participation plan that is offered to selected members of the management of the Bossard Group is disclosed in section 6 of the compensation report and in note 15 of the financial report.
