Relief Therapeutics Holdings AG, Tuesday, June 20, 2023, Press release picture

The rejected proposals will be carefully reviewed, and the board of directors will engage in a thorough analysis of the feedback provided by all shareholders. Relief Therapeutics welcomes ongoing, constructive dialogue with all shareholders.
