accepted his resignation to address any possible conflict of interest that
may exist. Dr Wiese has offered to provide any ongoing assistance that may

The Supervisory Board would like to use this opportunity to thank Dr Wiese
for his contribution to the Company and wish him well in his future
endeavours.

sub-committee, has agreed to assume the position of acting Chairperson. Ms
Sonn will remain a member of the independent committee together with the
