announcement.
GMX AG, a member of the United
Internet AG network of companies, is planning an IPO on the Frankfurt
Neuer Markt on May 25. United Internet AG shareholders will be
granted advance subscription rights to the new shares at a ratio of 4
to 1. Every four ordinary shares held in United Internet AG on May
11, 2000, will entitle shareholders to a preferential allocation of
one GMX AG share. Up to 1,292,000 shares, or 24.6% of the share
issue, excluding greenshoe, have been earmarked for this purpose.
United Internet shareholders can exercise their advance subscription
right between May 12 and mid-day on May 17 at the banks which handle
their portfolios. Until the company goes public, United Internet will
hold a 64.9% stake in leading German e-mail service provider GMX.
"This is the third time within a short period that our
shareholders have been given the opportunity of benefiting directly
from the success of an IPO by one of our affiliated companies," said
United Internet CEO Ralph Dommermuth, describing that offer that is
being made to shareholders.
United Internet is Europe's leading network of Internet companies.
Seventeen innovative firms are united under the umbrella of the
management holding company. They include, in addition to GMX,
companies such as AdLINK, 1&1 Internet, twenty4help, gatrixx and Jobs
& Adverts. They all use the cooperation opportunities and synergies
that the United Internet network provides.
