January 10, 2006 (Longarone, Italy) — De Rigo S.p.A. (NYSE:DER) announced today that it will terminate its ADR Depositary Agreement with The Bank of New York as of February 10, 2006. Following a recent tender offer for outstanding ordinary shares and ADSs of De Rigo by DR 3 S.r.l., a wholly-owned subsidiary of De Rigo Holding B.V., which is wholly owned by the brothers Ennio and Walter De Rigo, De Rigo's Board of Directors and shareholders approved a plan including the termination of the ADR Depositary Agreement, De Rigo’s delisting from the New York Stock Exchange and the deregistration of De Rigo’s securities under the U.S. securities laws.
