Hanover, 5 July 2013 - In their joint meeting on 5 July 2013, the Executive Board and Supervisory Board of Viscom AG, Hanover, Germany (ISIN DE0007846867) resolved to propose the conversion of some of the company's appropriated capital reserves into free capital reserves. This is to be implemented by means of a capital increase out of retained earnings, followed by an ordinary reduction of capital; this will be resolved at the company's Extraordinary General Meeting to be held on 20 August 2013. The convening of this Extraordinary General Meeting and further details are expected to be announced in the German Federal Gazette on 10 July 2013.
The planned conversion of appropriated capital reserves into free capital reserves encompasses 22,550,000.00 EUR of the company's total capital reserves of 37,107,160.08 EUR (as of 31 December 2012) and is to be used for the purpose of making Viscom AG's equity management more flexible and to free up future dividend payments to shareholders and/or share buyback programmes from capital reserves currently committed.
