SEZ Holding Ltd. - Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting Approves all Proposals The extraordinary shareholders’ meeting of SEZ Holding Ltd. approved all motions of the board of directors on 6 March 2008 in Zurich. The shareholders voted in favor of the motion of the board of directors to cancel the transfer restrictions in the articles of association (article 6, section 2, sentences 2 and 3). Additionally, the extraordinary shareholders’ meeting approved the election of Mr. Martin Anstice (USA), Chief Financial Officer of Lam Research Corporation, and Mr. George Schisler (USA), General Counsel of Lam Research Corporation, as members of the board of directors for a term ending at the next ordinary shareholders’ meeting. Both resolutions are subject to the condition that the public tender offer will be settled.
With the approval of the motions of the board of directors an essential condition to the offer has been met. Last week Lam has already obtained all necessary clearances from competition authorities. Settlement of the offer is therefore planned on 11 March 2008.
