The Squeeze-Out .

 

Following a relevant request of CITLOI S.A.S., a société par actions simplifiée organized under the laws of the Republic of France and a wholly-owned subsidiary of International Business Machines Corporation, on December 18, 2008, the French Autorité des marchés financiers announced today that the squeeze-out of the ordinary shares held by the minority shareholders of ILOG S.A. (“ILOG”) will be implemented on December 29, 2008 at a price of €10 per ordinary share.  On that date, all remaining minority interests will cease to have an equity interest in ILOG.  As a result, CITLOI S.A.S. will own 100% of the voting rights and the share capital of ILOG at the aforementioned effective date of the squeeze-out.

 

Departure of Directors and Appointment of New Directors .

 

On December 19, 2008, the terms of office of ILOG directors Pierre Haren, Marie-Claude Bernal and Pierre-Michel Peugnet expired.  Michel Alard, Pascal Brandys, Marc Fourrier, Richard Liebhaber, and Todd Lowe tendered their resignation as members of the Board of Directors of ILOG (the “Board”) effective as of December 19, 2008, which resignations were duly accepted.  Stéphane Lizeray remains a member of the Board.

 

On December 19, 2008, an Ordinary Shareholders’ Meeting of ILOG was held, during which the shareholders of ILOG elected Beth Smith, Paloma Valor, Einar Uboe, and Emile Santafe to the Board.  At a meeting of the Board held immediately after the Ordinary Shareholders’ Meeting, the newly elected Board appointed Einar Uboe as Chairman of the Board and Pierre Haren as Chief Executive Officer.
