Amsterdam, Brussels, Dublin, Lisbon, London and Paris – 16 May 2019 – Euronext, the leading pan-European exchange, announced today that its shareholders unanimously voted in favour of Euronext’s acquisition of up to 100% of Oslo Børs VPS’s capital during the General Meeting of Shareholders held on 16 May 2019 in Amsterdam. Shareholders’ approval was the last major condition to complete the transaction, since most of the other condition precedents highlighted in Euronext’s offer document were already met, including the clearance received from the Norwegian Ministry of Finance. Euronext expects to meet the remaining customary conditions described in its offer document available on www.euronext.com/en and close the transaction before the end of Q2 2019. Defined terms with capital letters herein have the meaning as in Euronext’s Offer Document published on 14 January 2019 and available on www.euronext.com/en.
