Leading Swiss technology firm joins global collective of financial services

TORONTO, ONTARIO AND ZURICH, SWITZERLAND, FEBRUARY 22, 2024 - VENCORA UK
LIMITED ('Vencora') today announced the settlement of its public tender
offer ('Offer') for all publicly held registered shares of CREALOGIX Holding
AG ('CREALOGIX') with a nominal value of CHF 8.00 each. The Offer was
completed successfully on February 21, 2024.

With a proven track-record of providing quality solutions to its customers
and a history of successful transactions, the acquisition of CREALOGIX
greatly expands Vencora's presence within the banking technology industry.

'We are incredibly excited to have CREALOGIX become part of Vencora,' said

'The acquisition of CREALOGIX demonstrates Vencora's strengthening position
within the banking industry and positions us for further growth in the
European region,' said Patel.

CREALOGIX will continue to operate independently under the leadership of
Oliver Weber, CEO of CREALOGIX. Vencora's decentralized business model
offers its portfolio of businesses the ability to maintain their
independence, which allows them to focus on the needs of customers and

value-based culture with a clear focus on investing in our people through
continuous learning,' said Weber. 'CREALOGIX has a proven track record in
