Swissmetal calls ordinary Annual General Meeting for 30 June 2006 In addition to the usual agenda items, the AGM will this year be deciding whether the company's headquarters will be moved from Berne (Canton of Berne) to Dornach (Canton of Solothurn). This would be a logical step, since most of Swissmetal's management and corporate services have been based in Dornach for several years already. The AGM will also decide on whether to create authorized capital of not more than 2,618,222 new shares with a par value of CHF 9.00 to finance the implementation of the Group's growth strategy. If the company performs well, part of this capital may also be used to set up an employee shareholding scheme.
