  • Press Release Memorandum of Understanding (“Mou”) Regarding
    Press release Memorandum of Understanding (“MoU”) regarding the combination of CEGEDEL, SOTEG and Saar Ferngas 23 July 2008 The Minister of Economy and Foreign Trade of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg is pleased to announce that the State of Luxembourg, SNCI, ArcelorMittal, RWE Energy, E.ON Ruhrgas, Electrabel and SOTEG have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (“MoU”) regarding the combination of CEGEDEL, SOTEG and Saar Ferngas. The shares of CEGEDEL are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and Euronext Brussels. SOTEG and SFG are unlisted privately held companies. Transaction Rationale The liberalisation of European energy markets has led to increasing and further continuing sector consolidation. This has changed the competitive situation for European energy suppliers significantly. Today, only integrated, international operating utilities with a certain scale have the critical mass to survive the sector consolidation and remain independent. CEGEDEL, SFG and SOTEG are particularly exposed to these adverse market conditions as the three companies are rather small in size and only serve markets comparatively small in size and volume. The formation of a strong, integrated utility headquartered in Luxembourg addresses key strategic aims of Luxembourg and the Greater Region: - Guaranteeing the security and quality of energy supply in Luxembourg and neighbouring countries - Preserving employment in the energy sector - Fostering of economic development in Luxembourg and the greater region through the offering of competitive energy prices to industrial and private customers In order to safeguard above mentioned interests, the State of Luxembourg in its role as major shareholder of CEGEDEL and SOTEG, had initiated discussions in 2007 with the shareholders of those companies and Saarbrücken-based German regional utility Saar Ferngas with a view to combining the three companies.
