ON FORM 6-K
Attached is the
English translation of the summary of the letter dated August 22,
2017, filed by the Company with the Bolsa de Comercio de Buenos Aires
and the Comisión Nacional de
Valores.
By
letter dated 22 August, 2017, the company reported that following
the material fact informed on May 26, 2017 and the financial
statements as of June 30, 2016 with respect to the Law of Promotion
of Competition and Reduction of Centralization Law (the
“Centralization Law”), it has been informed that
Dolphin Netherlands B.V. has submitted a non-binding offer for the
acquisition of the shares held by IDB Development Corporation Ltd.
(“IDBD”) in Discount Investment Corporation Ltd.
(“DIC”).
There
is no certainty that the parties will sign and/or execute a binding
agreement. The offer shall be examined by the independent committee
of IDBD and afterwards it shall be negotiated the terms and
conditions of the transaction. This transaction may take a
significant period of time or may not materialize or may
materialize with different terms during the course of the
negotiation, because of the required approvals of the competent
organs of IDBD as well as other entities that may not give their
approval.
The
Company has formed an independent directors committee for the
evaluation of the offer and the negotiation of the terms and
conditions of the transaction.
The
Company’s Audit Committee has issued its opinion without
objection to be formulated with respect to the transaction above
described.
