Annual & Special Corporate Meetings/Company Information/LifeWatch AG 28.05.2013
Neuhausen am Rheinfall / Switzerland - As announced, LifeWatch AG filed this morning with FINMA a notice because of the suspicion of the violation of disclosure obligations and has asked for the suspension of the voting rights of the members of the largest group of shareholders. FINMA has taken note that there are indications of non-disclosed participation in the group. Therefore, FINMA decided to grant the shareholders concerned the opportunity to submit a response to the company's filing by 5 June 2013, and thus not granting an ex- parte injunction allowing the suspension. Given that it is open whether and to what extent FINMA will order a suspension of voting rights, the Board of Directors of LifeWatch AG has decided to call off for the time being the Annual General Meeting in Zurich scheduled for May 29, 2013. A new date will be fixed and announced as soon as possible, once there is clarity regarding the suspension of voting rights.
