UMS International AG prepares for the sale of substantially all of its assets and publishes the invitation to extraordinary general meeting

Hamburg, August 19, 2014 - On August 14, 2014, UMS United Medical Systems International AG (UMS / ISIN DE0005493654) has entered into a stock purchase agreement for the sale of all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of United Medical Systems (DE), Inc. Westborough, Massachusetts, USA (UMS USA), to UMS Acquisition Holdings, Inc., a special purpose vehicle advised by the US-financial investor New State Capital Partners and announced to invite to an extraordinary general meeting at short notice. The company today has published the invitation to the extraordinary general meeting to be held on September 25, 2014, by which the company asks for the shareholder's consent to the closing of the transaction.

With the proposed sale of UMS USA, the company intends to sell substantially all of its assets. By doing so and taking further steps, the company would like to provide its shareholders the opportunity of a commercially attractive exit. The company's management and supervisory board assume that the gains resulting from the proceeds from the disposal can be distributed to the shareholders with the dividend to be resolved on at the ordinary general meeting 2015. The remaining assets are intended to be distributed to the shareholders as liquidation proceeds on a pro rata basis within the company's liquidation procedure.

Together with the invitation to the general meeting, a written management report is voluntarily published that clarifies the transaction, its underlying rationale, its commercial conditions as well as the resulting consequences for the company's shareholders. Such management report is available on the company's website at http://www.usmag.com under the section "Investor Relations" sub-section "Extraordinary General Meeting 2014". The website also provides a copy of the English language original version of the stock purchase agreement including annexes and attachments and a German language translation thereof.

The management report which is published relating to the general meeting refers in particular to a fairness opinion rendered by the investment bank M.M.Warburg & CO (AG & Co.) KGaA, Hamburg, confirming that the negotiated purchase price amounting to EUR 56,400,000 is financially adequate also from the perspective of the shareholders of UMS United Medical Systems International AG and taking into consideration the transaction costs associated with the sale.
