  * Sunrise is publishing its first comprehensive sustainability report
    today.

  * The Sunrise sustainability strategy is founded on four pillars: People,
    Planet, Progress and Governance. Within these pillars, 15 key areas for
    action have been defined.

  * The report was produced in line with Global Reporting Initiative (GRI)
    standards and underscores the Sunrise dedication to increased
    transparency and commitment to sustainability.

«We're proud of the sustainability successes that our efforts in all
business areas have already brought us. It's especially important to bear in
mind that our employees are all with us on this journey, since we've
integrated our sustainability ambitions into our bonus-related corporate
goals and we're improving the organisation holistically. This first
comprehensive Sunrise sustainability report now makes it clear also to the
wider community just how dedicated we are and increases our commitment to
our sustainability agenda,» says André Krause, CEO of Sunrise.

As an integral part of its corporate strategy, Sunrise implements
sustainable measures within its daily business activities. Its
sustainability strategy, Sunrise IMPACTS, is based on the pillars of People,
Planet and Progress, with the pillar of Governance as the foundation. With
goals such as high employee commitment, significant reduction in emissions
and increased digitisation, Sunrise is striving towards a more sustainable
future.

Highlights of the past year include initiatives that enabled Sunrise to meet
both customer requirements and sustainability demands, such as sustainable
product design and recycling programmes ( Sunrise Buyback) and offers to
promote the circular economy ( Sunrise Flex Upgrade).

For the community in general, among other items, Sunrise expanded its
project to promote digital education for low-income households and
introduced discounted mobile, Internet and TV subscriptions ( digital access
for all).

For its employees Sunrise focuses on offering both professional and personal
development opportunities and on an appreciative, inclusive working
environment. In addition, a volunteering programme has been designed and
implemented, encouraging employees to contribute to the community and at the
same time strengthening teamwork.

The company's heightened focus on the environment is emphasised by its
recent ISO 14001 environmental certification and has also led to
improvements in the results of external assessments of climate performance
by the Carbon Disclosure Project.

Sunrise was recently awarded a platinum medal by EcoVadis, a global leader
in corporate sustainability assessments. With 81 points, Sunrise now ranks
as one of the leading group among sustainable corporations, a group which
includes only the top 1% of globally rated companies.
