Photo-Scan plc, 26 November 2004
Photo-Scan plc ("Photo-Scan" or "Company") - Sanction of Scheme of Arrangement
On 8 November 2004 the Company's shareholders approved proposals to implement
the acquisition of the Company by Siemens AG by way of a scheme of arrangement
under section 425 of the Companies Act.
The Board of Directors of Photo-Scan is pleased to announce that earlier today
the Court sanctioned the Scheme and confirmed the related Capital Reduction. As
set out in the scheme document posted to the Company's shareholders on 15
October 2004 (the "Scheme Document"), trading in the ordinary shares of the
Company will cease on 29 November 2004 and no transfers of Scheme Shares will be
registered after 6.00 p.m. on that date. The admission to trading of the
ordinary shares of the Company on the Alternative Investment Market of the
London Stock Exchange will be cancelled with effect from 30 November 2004.
The Scheme and the Capital Reduction will become effective on delivery of an
office copy of the Court Order to the Registrar of Companies and the
registration of such Order, which is expected to occur on 30 November 2004.
Assuming the Scheme and the Capital Reduction become effective on 30 November
2004, the latest date for the despatch of cheques to Scheme Shareholders is 14
December 2004.
Unless otherwise defined, capitalised terms in this announcement have the same
meaning as in the Scheme Document.
