2 Dear shareholders, We can look back on a year that proved to be both challenging and successful. Komax Wire was again able to build on the good results of the previous year, while Komax Medtech and Komax Solar recorded a pleasingly strong improvement in their operating results. In addition, we have set the future course of our business on a new path through our decision to sell the Solar business and focus the Group more strongly on the high-income business of Komax Wire. Against this backdrop, Komax shares performed very strongly, closing the year more than 90% up. The Komax Group s consolidated sales increased to CHF 4.7 million in 0 (0: CHF 88. million). Internal growth amounted to +.4%. The operating profit (EBIT) increased by an impressive 44.0% to CHF. million (0: CHF.6 million). Corporate costs declined by CHF.9 million, primarily as a result of lower pension obligations under IAS 9. On the other hand, the operating result was impaired by significant writedowns on customer receivables as well as expenditure in connection with the sale of the Solar segment amounting to around CHF 4.5 million. Nonetheless, the EBIT margin reached 9.7% (0: 4.7%). Group profit after taxes (EAT) rose by 66.6% to CHF 5. million (0: CHF 9.4 million). Basic earnings per share therefore increased to CHF 7. (0: CHF.8). The Komax Group has a very strong financial footing. On the balance sheet date, shareholders equity amounted to CHF 64.0 million (0: CHF 6. million) while the equity ratio stood at 7.8% (0: 65.7%). Free cash flow came in at CHF 4.5 million (0: CHF 7.6 million) while net cash increased to CHF.6 million (0: CHF 0.9 million). The necessary adjustments to the company s Articles of Association the result of the Minder Initiative accepted by the Swiss electorate in March 0 and the subsequent Ordinance against Excessive Remuneration in Listed Companies will be put to a vote at this Annual General Meeting. We are endeavouring to implement these requirements in a pragmatic way that takes account of the interests of our shareholders, does not diminish the attractiveness of the company, and guarantees the company s legal security. We believe we have a comprehensible compensation system that is conducive to appropriate yet attractive remuneration in line with the market. Shareholders will be able to vote on compensation for the first time at the 05 Annual General Meeting. Please find enclosed our short report on the 0 financial year, which contains information on business development. The detailed Annual Report can be ordered using the enclosed registration slip for the Annual General Meeting.

5 5. Amendments to the Articles of Association 5. Request of zcapital AG, Zug abolition of registration and voting rights restrictions of 5% in each case zcapital AG, Zug, is requesting the deletion of Art. 6 Para. 4 and Art. 0 Paras. and 4 of the Articles of Association of 6 March 04, on the grounds that these provisions stand in the way of shareholder democracy and contradict the basic principle of one share, one vote. of the Board of Directors The Board of Directors recommends rejection of this request. B. Opinion of the Board of Directors The Board of Directors regards a stable, diversified and balanced shareholder base as well as the broadest possible base for the passing of resolutions at the Annual General Meeting as key factors in the implementation of long-term corporate strategy and the success of the company. The shareholder base of the Komax Group currently consists of some 00 shareholders in the share register, who account for some 60% of votes and are all eligible to vote at the Annual General Meeting. The average voting participation rate at Komax amounted to some 9% over the last five years. Without registration and voting right restrictions of 5%, a small minority of shareholders could exercise control over the company without the other shareholders being compensated in any way for the de facto assumption of control. The registration and voting rights restriction of 5% therefore acts above all as a form of protection for the great majority of our shareholders and strengthens their interests. Art. 0 Para. 4, which the proposal of zcapital AG is likewise designed to abolish, is inadmissible in any case following the introduction of the Ordinance against Excessive Remuneration in Listed Companies and will be deleted without replacement as part of the proposed amendment of the Articles of Association set out under 5. below. 5. Amendment of the Articles of Association in line with the Ordinance against Excessive Remuneration in Listed Companies The Board of Directors proposes that the company s Articles of Association of 6 March 04 be amended and supplemented in line with the Ordinance against Excessive Remuneration in Listed Companies as follows: Article 8, Paragraph Authority/meetings Article 0, Paragraphs 4 Voting rights and representation Article, Paragraph Passing of resolutions Article (new) Voting on remuneration Article, Paragraphs and Composition, term of office (Board of Directors) (now Article 4) Article 4 (now Article 5) Constitution (Board of Directors) Article 8, Title and Tasks and authority (Board of Directors) Paragraph (now Article 9) Article 9 (now Article 0) Delegation of authority Article 0, Paragraphs and 4 Rights and obligations of Board of Directors (now Article ) Article (new) Remuneration Committee Article 5 (new) Compensation Article 6 (new) Executive Committee A detailed overview of the individual amendments to the Articles of Association can be found in the Appendix, which forms an integral part of this invitation. 6. Conditional capital increase The Board of Directors proposes the creation of conditional capital for employee share ownership schemes in the maximum amount of CHF and thus the amendment of Art.. of the Articles of Association: Through the exercising of option or subscription rights which are issued as part of the Executive and Employee Participation Programme of Komax Holding AG, the share capital of the company may increase by a maximum of CHF as a result of the issue of up to 66 0 registered shares each with a par value of CHF 0.0, to be fully paid in. The subscription and advance subscription rights of shareholders in the company are excluded. The newly issued shares are subject to the limitations set out in Art. 6. The issue of shares or associated subscription rights to executives, members of the Board of Directors or employees shall
6 take place in accordance with one or more regulations to be set out by the Board of Directors with due consideration given to functions and levels of responsibility. Shares or subscription rights may be issued to executives, members of the Board of Directors or employees at a price which is lower than the share price. The Board of Directors shall be entitled to use any option or subscription rights which have been issued but have since expired for the purpose of new option programmes which are based on the same principles as those which have expired. Komax Holding AG creates conditional share capital at regular intervals to allow the Board of Directors, Group Management, middle management and employees a reasonable degree of participation in the company s profit. This represents an extremely effective liquidity-preserving measure for the company. In addition, reserves from capital contributions are accumulated that can in turn be distributed to shareholders free of tax as part of the appropriation of profits. The new wording of the provisions in the Articles of Association is essentially consistent with the existing version. To date, conditional share capital amounted to a maximum of CHF 6.00 (issue of no more than 6 0 registered shares at CHF 0.0 each). The amendment to Art.. of the Articles of Association will increase the conditional capital by a maximum of CHF through the creation of an additional registered shares at CHF 0.0 each, to be fully paid in. Additional information Documents The 0 Annual Report and Auditors Report, the minutes of the last Annual General Meeting and the proposals of the Board of Directors will be available for inspection by shareholders at the registered office of the company in Dierikon from 6 March 04. Any shareholder may request the forwarding of these documents. A short version of the Annual Report will be sent with the invitation to the Annual General Meeting to all holders of registered shares who were entered in the share register on 8 March 04. The full version can be ordered using the enclosed registration slip. The current Articles of Association dated 6 March 04 are available at Voting entitlement and admission tickets All shareholders entered in the share register on 5 May 04 are entitled to vote in respect of the number of shares registered in their name on that date. Shareholders who were entered in the share register on 8 March 04 will be sent the registration and subscription slip for admission tickets; they are asked to sign the registration form and return it by 5 May 04 at the latest. The admission ticket and ballot documentation will be forwarded by mail following completion of the registration process (dispatched from April 04).

The representative may be another holder of registered shares or an individual who is independent of the company. Based on Art. 0 Para. of the Ordinance against Excessive Remuneration in Listed Companies, the Board of Directors has appointed the lawyer Thomas Tschümperlin, Fellmann Tschümperlin Lötscher AG, Zinggentorstrasse 4, P.O. Box, 6006 Lucerne, as that independent person. Shareholders may issue their proxy with voting instructions. If no instructions are issued with respect to the proposals contained in the invitation and/or no general instructions are issued, the independent proxy will exercise the relevant votes on the corresponding resolution in favour of the proposal of the Board of Directors. The previous possibility of representation by corporate bodies or depository proxies pursuant to Art. 689c and Art. 689d SCO is now inadmissible under Art. of the Ordinance against Excessive Remuneration in Listed Companies.
