More than 50% of the shares of GENERALE BEAULIEU HOLDING SA sold to Swiss
Medical Network SA

In the context of the offer of Swiss Medical Network SA for the acquisition of
shares of GENERALE BEAULIEU HOLDING SA which was announced on 13 September 2016
and is open for acceptance until 17 October 2016, shareholders holding more than
50% of the shares have to date accepted the offer and sold their shares to Swiss

Both parties look forward to working together. By joining Swiss Medical Network,

allowing the realisation of synergies and the development of medical cooperation
through the creation of multi-site competence centres. The transaction will
reinforce Clinique Générale-Beaulieu's position as the benchmark private clinic
in Geneva and ensure its development, to the benefit of its patients, employees
and physicians.

Clinique Générale-Beaulieu becomes one of the largest hospitals of Swiss Medical
Network and the group has already undertaken to make further investments in the
range of CHF 25 million over the coming 3 years in medical projects and in the
patient infrastructure of the Clinique Générale-Beaulieu.
