Titel TNT Meetings of Shareholders today
Bericht Amsterdam, 25 May 2011 – Today TNT will hold its Annual General Meeting of Shareholders (AGM) followed by an Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders (EGM). The main item on the agenda of both meetings is the demerger proposal leading to a separation of TNT’s Mail and Express Businesses. DEMERGER EXPRESS AND MAIL BUSINESSES On 2 December 2010, TNT N.V. announced its intention to demerge the Express Business to thereby create a newly listed company, TNT Express N.V. After the demerger, TNT N.V. will continue the Mail Business and will be renamed PostNL N.V. The main reasons for separation are the increasingly divergent strategic profiles of the two businesses and the limited synergies between them. Separation will enable greater focus, transparency and two distinct investment opportunities for shareholders. It will also facilitate participation in possible sector consolidation. The legal and organisational restructuring of the company was completed on 1 January 2011. The required demerger and merger proposals were filed with the Chamber of Commerce on 11 April 2011, concurrent with the issuance of the TNT Express N.V. prospectus. Positive advice from all relevant works’ councils was already received in November 2010. The District Court has confirmed that no creditor has filed objections to the proposed demerger and merger. The proposed transaction is now only subject to approval from the shareholders' meeting. The shareholders will have the opportunity to discuss the demerger proposal during the AGM. Voting will take place in the subsequent EGM. This vote will end a period of more than one year in which the best structure, balancing the interest of all stakeholders, for the future success of the two businesses was analysed, decided upon and prepared for implementation.
