Saint-Gobain takes note of Sika's decisions and reiterates its
determination
Saint-Gobain takes note of the decisions taken today at Sika's
Annual General Meeting following the restriction of the voting
rights of Schenker-Winkler Holding (SWH), decided by Sika's
Management Board in violation of SWH's rights.
In anticipation of these decisions, the Group had extended the
term of the contract signed with the Burkard family until June
2016.
The resolution regarding the deletion of the opt-out clause,
whose validity has been confirmed twice by the TOB (Swiss Takeover
Board) in recent weeks, was not adopted.
Saint-Gobain reiterates its determination to complete the
transaction and has full confidence that the Swiss courts shall
allow SWH to regain their rights according to the law
