Veolia (Paris:VIE) announced today that it has signed a merger agreement concerning the merger of Vigie SA (formerly known as Suez SA) into Veolia. The purpose of this merger is to simplify and rationalize the legal structure of the Veolia group.
Following the broad success of the cash tender offer initiated by Veolia, which allowed for the implementation of a mandatory squeeze-out procedure on February 18, 2022, Veolia holds, and will hold until the final completion of the merger, all the shares representing the entire capital of Vigie SA.
The merger will therefore be carried out under the simplified merger regime, without the need for a meeting of the general meetings of Veolia1 or Vigie SA, without the issue or exchange of Veolia shares, and without the intervention of an independent expert (expert indépendant), a merger auditor (commissaire à la fusion) or a contribution auditor (commissaire aux apports), in accordance with the applicable laws and regulations.
The final completion of the merger is scheduled for October 31, 2022, and remains subject to the fulfillment of the conditions precedent stipulated in the merger agreement. From an accounting and tax point of view, the merger will have a retroactive effect as from January 1, 2022.
The merger agreement will be filed and published with the clerk of the Paris Commercial Court and published in the Bulletin officiel des annonces civiles et commerciales (BODACC) and the Bulletin des Annonces Légales Obligatoires (BALO) as well as on the websites of Veolia and the Company (www.veolia.com).
