Sika AG / Sika AG: SCHENKER-WINKLER HOLDING APPEALS DECISION OF CANTONAL COURT OF ZUG - REQUEST FOR EX PARTE DECISION DENIED . Processed and transmitted by Nasdaq OMX Corporate Solutions. The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement.

On March 20, 2015 the Cantonal Court of Zug denied all requests of Schenker-Winkler Holding (SWH) with regard to a restriction of the voting rights. SWH has now appealed this decision with the Supreme Court of Zug (Obergericht Zug). Together with its appeal, SWH applied for an ex parte order prohibiting any restrictions of SWH's voting rights at the forthcoming annual general meeting on April 14, 2015. Just as the Cantonal Court before, the Supreme Court of Zug denied SWH's request for an ex parte order.

Sika is invited to respond to SWH's appeal by April 17. The appeal has no suspensive effect.
