ATEbank announces that Bommidala Enterprises Ltd (first proffered candidate for the sale of ATEbank's stake at SEKAP S.A) withdrew its offer due to the lack of definite decision at the company's General Assembly of 6.3.2012 for the implementation of SEKAP share capital increase which was a critical matter for the closing of the transaction. The above mentioned General Assembly was postponed after the second largest shareholder relevant request.
