As at 31 December <strong>2012</strong> and 2011, the share capital of SLH consisted of 32 081 054 fully-paid shares<br />

with a par value of CHF 5.10 each. In exercising voting rights, no shareholder can collect more than<br />

10% of the total share capital directly or indirectly in respect of own shares or shares they represent.<br />

Conditional share capital was CHF 12 032 868.60 as at 31 December <strong>2012</strong> (2011: CHF 12 032 868.60).<br />

As approved by the shareholders at the General Meeting of <strong>Swiss</strong> <strong>Life</strong> Holding (SLH) on 5 May 2011,<br />

a reduction in the par value of CHF 4.50 per registered SLH share was effected in 2011. The payout<br />

took place on 28 July 2011 and led to a reduction in the share capital of SLH of CHF 144 million.<br />

Share premium<br />

Share premium comprises additional paid-in capital in excess of the par value (net of transaction<br />

costs), gains/losses on own equity instruments and equity compensation benefits.<br />

In <strong>2012</strong>, a distribution to shareholders out of the capital contribution reserve of CHF 144 million<br />

(CHF 4.50 per registered share) was made.<br />

Due to the reduction in the par value of CHF 4.50 per registered SLH share in 2011, an amount of<br />

CHF 1 million was credited to share premium in respect of treasury shares.<br />
