Pressemitteilung

Freiburg, 14. Juni 2017


AEVIS VICTORIA SA publiziert das definitive Zwischenergebnis im Rahmen des
öffentlichen Übernahmeangebots für LifeWatch AG

AEVIS VICTORIA SA (AEVIS VICTORIA) bestätigt, dass ihr Übernahmeangebot für die
LifeWatch AG nicht zustande gekommen ist.

Am 20. Februar 2017 publizierte AEVIS VICTORIA ein Übernahmeangebot für alle
sich im Publikum befindenden Namenaktien der LifeWatch. Das öffentliche
Übernahmeangebot unterliegt verschiedenen Bedingungen inklusive derjenigen, dass
AEVIS VICTORIA nach Ablauf der Angebotsfrist Annahmeerklärungen für eine Anzahl
LifeWatch-Aktien erhalten hat, die, zusammen mit den bereits von AEVIS VICTORIA
und ihren Referenzaktionären gehaltenen Aktien, mindestens 67% aller
ausstehenden Namenaktien von LifeWatch ergibt. Diese Bedingung ist nicht erfüllt
und AEVIS VICTORIA gibt bekannt, dass sie auf die Bedingung nicht verzichten
wird.

Am 24. Mai 2017 hat AEVIS VICTORIA den Abschluss einer Vereinbarung mit Cardiac
Monitoring bekanntgegeben, gemäss welcher AEVIS VICTORIA zugesichert hat, alle
von ihr gehaltenen LifeWatch-Aktien im Rahmen des konkurrierenden Angebots von
Cardiac Monitoring anzudienen. Im Gegenzug hatte Cardiac Monitoring den
Angebotspreis erhöht.
