The investment management business is divided into two operational groups, represented by CRMC and Capital Group International, Inc. ("CGII"). CRMC is a U.S.-based investment adviser that manages the American Funds family of mutual funds. CGII is the parent company of five companies that serve as investment managers to various institutional clients around the globe: CGTC in the U.S., CII in the U.S. and Singapore, CIL in the United Kingdom, CISA in Switzerland, and CIKK in Japan. CRMC and CGII are 100% affiliates of CGC. CGTC, CII, CIL, CISA and CIKK are 100% affiliates of CGII. Neither CGC nor any of its subsidiaries own shares of Sonova Holding AG for their own account. The shares reported in this Notification are owned by accounts under the discretionary investment management of one or more of the investment management companies described above. Furthermore, CRMC and CGII act seperately from one another and from CGC in exercising investment discretion over their managed accounts. The discretionary investment management entitles CGC's management companies to exercise voting rights autonomously and this Notification is therefore an "Independent Notification according to the Disclosure Office Notice Nr. II/99".
