Gelsenkirchen, 4 November 2011 - The legal dispute between Masterflex AG, a
bank, senior shareholders and the D&O insurance company regarding the
claims for damages from the interest rate swap agreement terminated in 2009
was ended today. On the basis of the out-of-court agreement between the
parties involved, Masterflex is to receive an additional amount of EUR 2.7
million. After settlement of claims, this results in non-operating income
of roughly EUR 0.9 million at Masterflex. This income is not yet included
in the Q3 figures to be published on 15 November 2011. The additional
liquid funds will be used to further reduce the Group's debt.
