Berlin, 28 February 2008 – Eckert & Ziegler Strahlen- und Medizintechnik AG
(ISIN DE 0005659700) and IBt s.a. have reached an agreement about the
consolidation of their respective Businesses for Prostate Cancer Implants
and executed a Share Contribution Agreement, in which Eckert & Ziegler
sells its Implant Business to IBt with immediate effect in exchange for
6.75 million IBt shares. As a result, Eckert & Ziegler will become IBt’s
largest shareholder, owning about 40% of all rights to dividends and other
economic benefits, and close to 30% of the voting rights in IBt’s
shareholder meeting. The difference in the two ratios is due to the
existence of so-called Beneficiary Shares, which only convey voting rights
in the shareholder meeting, but not to dividends.
Further details are provided in a press release which is available on the
company’s homepage.
