The shares were acquired at a price of €20.20 per share.

As a result of this acquisition, Alpha Bank confirmed that the condition for the completion of the public offer has now been satisfied.

The condition, described in section 1.18 of the information circular, required the bank to acquire a minimum of 2,100,601 shares, corresponding to 66.67 per cent of the company’s voting rights.

The bank stated that this threshold has now been exceeded following the completion of the latest transaction.

Consequently, Alpha Bank and the persons acting in concert with it now collectively hold, directly or indirectly, 2,193,345 shares in Alpha Trust Holdings.

This holding represents 69.61 per cent of the company’s total paid-up share capital and voting rights, giving Alpha Bank effective control of the Greek investment group’s shareholder base and satisfying the principal requirement for the successful completion of the takeover offer.
