Barconet N.V. (New) Barco N.V DEMERGER OF BARCO N.V. INTO BARCONET N.V. (NEW) BARCO N.V. ADMISSION TO LISTING OF ALL SHARES AND VVPR STRIPS OF BARCONET N.V. AND (NEW) BARCO N.V. ON THE FIRST MARKET OF EURONEXT BRUSSELS On September 1, 2000, the Board of Directors of Barco N.V. ("Barco"), a Belgian public limited liability company, with registered office in Poperinge, Belgium, decided to propose to the shareholders of Barco to demerge the company into two new Belgian public limited liability companies, namely: · BarcoNet N.V. ("BarcoNet"), which will carry out the existing "Barco Communication Systems" activity of Barco and its subsidiaries ("Barco Group"), and · (new) Barco N.V. ("New Barco"), which will carry out the remaining business activities of Barco Group, and which will carry on the name "Barco". The demerger proposal will be submitted to an extraordinary shareholders' meeting of Barco to be held on October 20, 2000 or, if the required quorum shall not have been obtained for this meeting, to a subsequent extraordinary shareholders' meeting to be held on November 9, 2000. The demerger of Barco will be effective (the "Closing of the Demerger") upon approval of the demerger proposal and the incorporation of BarcoNet and New Barco by the shareholders of Barco representing at least 75 % of the votes validly cast at the aforementioned shareholders' meeting. Upon Closing of the Demerger, Barco will cease to exist. The demerger of Barco will for tax and accounting purposes, however, have retroactive effect as of July 1, 2000. Upon Closing of the Demerger, all the 12,410,479 outstanding shares of Barco will need to be exchanged into 24,820,958 new shares of BarcoNet and 12,410,479 new shares of New Barco. As a result, each holder of shares of Barco will receive two new shares of BarcoNet and one new share of New Barco per share of Barco. On the date of this prospectus, Barco's shares include 1,894,512 shares that can benefit from a reduced withholding tax rate ("verminderde voorheffing" / "précompte réduit" or "VVPR") on dividends of 15 % instead of 25 %. The tax advantage resulting from the VVPR status has been incorporated in VVPR strips that are listed separately on the First Market of Euronext Brussels. Barco is of the opinion that there are reasonable arguments to defend that the shares of Barco that can benefit from the reduced 15 % withholding tax, will not lose their VVPR status pursuant to the demerger of Barco. Upon Closing of the Demerger, therefore, all 1,894,512 VVPR strips of Barco will need to be exchanged into 3,789,024 VVPR strips of BarcoNet and 1,894,512 VVPR strips of New Barco. As a result, each holder of VVPR strips of Barco will receive two VVPR strips of BarcoNet and one VVPR strip of New Barco per VVPR strip of Barco. The shares and VVPR strips of Barco are currently traded on the First Market of Euronext Brussels under the symbol "BAR". Application has been made for the admission to listing of all of the shares and VPPR strips, including the shares and VVPR strips that will be issued upon exercise of warrants, options and convertible bonds, of BarcoNet and New Barco on the First Market of Euronext Brussels. The shares of BarcoNet and New Barco (together the "Shares") are expected to be admitted to listing on the First Market of Euronext Brussels under the symbols "BARN" and "BAR" respectively. The VVPR strips of BarcoNet and New Barco (together the "VVPR Strips") will be listed separately on the First Market of Euronext Brussels upon admission to listing of the Shares. Subject to approval by the Market Authority of Euronext Brussels, it is expected that on or about the first banking day following the Closing of the Demerger, the Shares, respectively VVPR Strips, will be listed jointly as a single unit under the symbol "BAR" of Barco, whereby each unit will represent two new shares, respectively two new VVPR strips of BarcoNet and one new share, respectively one new VVPR strip, of New Barco. Separate listing and trading of the shares, respectively VVPR strips, of BarcoNet and New Barco is expected to commence on or about the second banking day following the Closing of the Demerger. Prior to the listing of the Shares and VVPR Strips on the First Market of Euronext Brussels, there will be no public market for the Shares and VVPR Strips. ________________________________ This document is issued solely in connection with the admission to listing of the Shares and VVPR Strips on the First Market of Euronext Brussels upon Closing of the Demerger.

  • Gimv Invests in Biopharmaceutical Company Complix
    Antwerp, 26 June 2013, 7:30 AM CET Gimv invests in biopharmaceutical company Complix Gimv and Gimv managed Biotech Fonds Vlaanderen invest in Complix, a biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery and development of novel therapeutics based on its AlphabodiesTM platform. This investment is part of a total Series B equity financing round of EUR 12 million from a syndicate of important life sciences investors, co-led by new investors Gimv and Edmond de Rothschild Investment Partners. Complix is a biopharmaceutical company developing a pipeline of therapeutics, called AlphabodiesTM, mainly focused on oncology and autoimmunity. Alphabodies are a revolutionary class of protein therapeutics that combine the attractive features of antibodies, including high target specificity and affinity, with the benefits from small chemical drugs such as extreme stability and their capacity to penetrate cells. As a result of these unique features, Alphabodies can tackle a broad range of diseases where treatment options today are limited or non-existent. Complix is headquartered in Hasselt (Belgium) at the Life Sciences incubator BioVille, and has research facilities in Ghent (Belgium) and in Luxembourg. Since its founding in 2008 Complix has raised a total of EUR 26 million in funding, including the EUR 12 million capital round announced today. This financing round will be used to develop a first set of therapeutic Alphabodies for treatment of cancer and auto- immune indications, and to further develop and validate the company’s unique Alphabody platform. Mr Patrick Van Beneden, Partner at Gimv, comments: “We are very excited by the Complix opportunity because it perfectly fits in our Health & Care platform strategy for biotech investments.

  • The Last Platform of the World's First Semi-Submersible Floating Wind
    Windplus is a consortium between EDP Renováveis, Engie, Repsol and Principle Power The last platform of the world’s first semi-submersible floating wind farm sets sail • The platform will travel from the Galician town of Ferrol to its final location 20 km off the Portuguese coast. • The two previous platforms – featuring the world’s largest offshore wind turbine on a floating foundation - are now fully installed at the wind farm, supplying energy to Portugal’s electricity network. • With a total installed capacity of 25 MW, WindFloat Atlantic is the first floating wind farm in continental Europe. Lisbon, 28 May 2020: The WindFloat Atlantic project is taking one of the final steps towards becoming fully operational. The last of the three pre-assembled wind turbine platforms making up the project has left the Port of Ferrol today, heading for its final destination 20 km off the coast of Portugal at Viana do Castelo, in a journey that will take three days. This operation will be completed by hooking up this last unit to the pre-laid mooring system and connecting it to the rest of the offshore wind farm. This third platform will be installed next to the other two units, which are already up and running and supplying energy to the Portuguese electricity grid. Transporting each of the three WindFloat Atlantic floating structures is a milestone in itself, as it sidesteps the need for towing craft designed specifically for this process and makes it possible for the project to be replicated elsewhere. The floating structure –measuring 30 m high and with a 50 m distance between each of its columns – can support the world’s largest commercially available wind turbines, of 8.4 MW production capacity each, on a floating structure.

  • Evidence on Taxing Transactions in Modern Markets∗
    Sand in the Chips? Evidence on Taxing Transactions in Modern Markets∗ Jean-Edouard Colliard and Peter Hoffmanny First version: December 2012 This version: May 30, 2014 Abstract We present evidence on the causal impact of financial transaction taxes on market quality in a modern market structure by exploiting the introduction of such a levy in France on August 1st, 2012. Our evidence suggests that the substantial changes in market structure over the past decades play an important role in reassessing the long-standing idea of the FTT. While we document a surprisingly mild impact on exchange-based trading due to exemptions for liquidity provision, off-exchange trading declined by 40%, and the largest OTC trades virtually disappeared. This suggests that market segmentation poses a considerable challenge to current policy proposals. Journal of Economic Literature Classification Number: G10, G14, G18, H32.

  • ENGIE Makes Further Progress on Execution of Strategic Plan with Sale of 11.5% of Grtgaz to Caisse Des Dépôts and CNP Assurances
    Press release 30 July 2021 ENGIE makes further progress on execution of strategic plan with sale of 11.5% of GRTgaz to Caisse des Dépôts and CNP Assurances ENGIE makes further progress on the execution of its strategic plan towards rebalancing exposure from French gas networks towards renewables and other infrastructure assets. ENGIE, Caisse des Dépôts and CNP Assurances have signed a binding agreement for the sale of a 11.5% ENGIE stake in GRTgaz SA (“GRTgaz”) to Caisse des Dépôts and CNP Assurances.
