LBi International N.V.: Publicis initiates squeeze out procedures to acquire all outstanding shares in LBi
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Amsterdam (the Netherlands), 18 February 2013 - LBi International N.V.("LBi" or
the "Company") (NYSE EURONEXT Amsterdam: LBI) is announcing that Publicis Groupe
Holdings B.V., a wholly owned subsidiary of Publicis Groupe S.A., ("Publicis")
has initiated legal proceedings in accordance with articles 2:359c and 2:92a of
the Dutch Civil Code to acquire all outstanding shares in LBi by a ruling of the
Enterprise Chamber of the Amsterdam Court of Appeal. These proceedings are
initiated by Publicis following the acquisition of more than 95% of all issued
and outstanding ordinary shares in the Company (the "Shares"). In light of the
Company holding 4,162,861 Shares in treasury, it will act as co-plaintiff in
these proceedings.
The last trading day will be 6 March 2013. Delisting of the Shares was approved
by NYSE Euronext Amsterdam.
The Company is reminding shareholders that following delisting shareholders will
no longer be able to trade the Shares via the NYSE Euronext Amsterdam stock
exchange in the usual way. Furthermore, it remains uncertain if, to what extent,
under which conditions and at what cost processing of the Shares in the
Euroclear giro system may be continued after delisting.
This is a press release by LBi International N.V. ("LBi") pursuant to the
provision of Article 5:25i of the Dutch Act on the Financial Supervision (Wet op
het financieel toezicht).
