RHÖN-KLINIKUM AG will carry out a 1:2 stock split on Friday, 13 July 2007. In view of the share price trend the Company is thus opening its share to a still wider group of investors.
The 19th Annual General Meeting on 31 May 2007 adopted the resolution for an increase in the registered share capital from company funds to 259.2 million euros and the subsequent re-division of the registered share capital at a ratio of 1:2. These resolutions have since been recorded in the commercial register.
After the stock split the subscribed share capital of the Company will be divided into 103,680,000 non-par shares each having a pro rata amount in the registered share capital of 2.50 euros.
As a result of the re-division, the price level of the share will change at the start of trading on the day of the changeover compared with the closing price on the previous day. The technical execution of the stock split will be performed by the depository banks at no cost for the shareholders, so no separate action on the part of shareholders is required. Any stock market orders not yet executed will extinguish upon the expiry of 12 July 2007.
