   The numbers notified above do not include the voting rights from 3,776
   shares and from 750,000 long call options held by UI Petrus Advisers
   Special Situations Fund as of 3 January 2024. Klaus Umek / Petrus Advisers
   Ltd. can only issue recommendations on the exercise of the voting rights
   concerned but cannot otherwise exercise any further influence. Therefore,
   these voting rights are not to be attributed to Klaus Umek / Petrus
   Advisers for the purpose of this notification but are merely disclosed in
   this Section 10 of this notification for full transparency only.

    

   The 1 594 933 voting rights from shares notified under section 7.A
   (indirect) include  209 790  voting rights that are attributable to Petrus
   Advisers Ltd. based on voting proxies granted by natural persons and are
   therefore not reflected under section 8.
