Berlin/Grasbrunn , 12. September 2005 - With the approval of the
Supervisory Board, the Management Board of Wire Card AG (the
"Company") has decided today to increase its registered share capital
from EUR 55,408,228.00 by up to EUR 6,694,457.00 to up to EUR
62,102,685.00, by partially using the authorised share capital, by
issuing up to 6,694,457 new non par value bearer shares (the "New
Shares").
The New Shares will be participating in profits effective from 1
January 2005.
The Company is granting its shareholders the statutory subscription
right at a ratio of 14:10, i.e. fourteen old shares grant a
subscription right to subscribe to ten New Shares (the "Rights
Offering"). This subscription right consists of (i) the shareholders‘
statutory subscription right and (ii) the right to subscribe to
further New Shares resulting from the waiver of the statutory
subscription right of the Company’s majority shareholder, ebs Holding
AG.
The Rights Offering is being granted by way of an indirect
subscription right in favor of VEM Aktienbank AG, Rosental 5, 80331
Munich, which is being authorised to subscribe to and take over the
up to 6,694,457 New Shares for the issue amount of EUR 1.00 per
share, with the obligation to offer the New Shares to the
shareholders for subscription ("Subscription Offer") at a ratio of
14:10 against payment of EUR 3.30 per New Share ("Subscription
Price"). VEM Aktienbank AG is obliged to transfer all additional
proceeds of the share issue to the Company.
The detailed conditions for the Rights Offering will be announced in
the electronic Federal Gazette on 14 September 2005.
In addition to the aforementioned subscription rights in the ratio of
14:10, each shareholder may submit a further binding subscription
order for subscription to further New Shares against payment of the
Subscription Price (the "Subscription Order").
The remaining New Shares, which have not been subscribed to in cash
by the shareholders or for which no Subscription Orders have been
made will be offered to a small group of selected investors, who have
submitted a binding offer to purchase New Shares against payment of
the subscription price (private placement).
No trading of the subscription rights will take place.
