Marburg, December 12, 2007 – 3U HOLDING AG, which is listed on the Prime
Standard at Frankfurter Stock Exchange (ISIN DE0005167902), and the
shareholders who filed lawsuits for rescission and declaration of nullity
of the resolutions adopted at the extraordinary general meeting on January
15, 2007 have ended their legal disputes with settlements at Frankfurt am
Main District Court.
On the basis of the settlements the company and the suing shareholders
amicably stated that the lawsuits for rescission and declaration of nullity
have been settled. Furthermore, the lawsuits for rescission and declaration
of nullity were withdrawn. Moreover, the suing shareholders have
acknowledged the proposals in the approval process being pursued by the
company. The company will publish the full texts of the settlements without
undue delay in accordance with §§ 248a, 149 Section 2 and 3 German Stock
Corporation Act.
The Board of Management assumes that the resolutions concerning the
spin-off and the controlling and profit transfer agreement can be entered
on the Commercial Register this year. With the entry of the resolutions on
the Commercial Register 3U HOLDING AG will spin off its telecommunication
services retroactively as of October 1, 2006 to the newly-founded 100%
subsidiary 3U TELECOM GmbH. Thus another essential element in the strategic
re-orientation of the company as a management and investment company has
been implemented. With the spin-off of the telecommunication services
greater transparency and a clear structure with regard to the control of 3U
HOLDING AG and its operative units are being attained. At the same time,
against the background of the conclusion of a controlling and profit
transfer agreement with the newly-founded 3U TELECOM GmbH the tax position
of the 3U Group is being optimized.
