The shareholders of HIAG Immobilien Holding AG agreed by a vast majority to the creation of approved share capital of a maximum of CHF 1,700,000 through the issue of a maximum of 1,700,000 registered shares with a nominal value of CHF 1.00 each for a period of two years until 29 September 2023. If the market environment is favourable, HIAG plans to issue new registered shares by way of a rights issue, probably in the 4th quarter of 2021.
