Ad hoc press release in accordance with Art. 53 LR

The Board of Directors of the Jungfraubahn Holding AG to be renewed as planned

The Jungfraubahn Holding AG issued an ad hoc press release in accordance with Art. 53 LR to announce that there will be two personnel changes on the Board of Directors of Jungfraubahn Holding AG. These occur as part of the ordinary succession planning. The Board of Directors proposes Catherine Mühlemann and Thomas Ruoff to replace the members of the board stepping down, Thomas Bieger and Peter Baumann. As already communicated on 2 September 2020, member of the board Heinz Karrer is due to take over from Thomas Bieger as Chairman of the Board of Directors.

With a view to realising the once-in-a-generation V-Bahn project, the composition of the Board of Directors of Jungfraubahn Holding AG has been kept stable for the last few years. This is why the previous maximum twelve-year term of office was suspended during this time. This limited term of office has now been reinstated, which is why in addition to the already announced departure of Chairman of the Board of Directors Thomas Bieger, member of the board Peter Baumann will also be stepping down at the Annual General Meeting on 16 May 2022. The Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting Catherine Mühlemann and Thomas Ruoff to replace the members of the board stepping down, Thomas Bieger and Peter Baumann.

She has been the vice president of Swiss tourism since 2017. Mühlemann lives in Interlaken and is the mother of two children.
