EYBL International AG (ISIN: AT0000908157) has confirmed it has been
conducting talks about cooperation, collaboration and a possible
takeover with companies in its sector.

In particular, talks have been held with the firm of Prevent aiming
at sounding out potentials and opportunities for collaboration in a
tough market environment.

The objective is an expeditious process of exchanging views in regard
to opportunities and risks as well as the structure of possible
cooperation, taking potential synergies between the companies into
account.

Eybl International has already contacted the Corporate Takeover
Commission to ascertain whether there are corporate restructuring
privileges available under sec 15, par 1, numeral 2 of the Corporate
Takeover Act. If the prerequisites are there the new majority
shareholder would be exempted from the statutory obligation to make
an offer to the free float constituency of its shareholders,
something that could facilitate corporate restructuring.
