Item
1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On
June1, 2007 CME Romania B.V. (“CME”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Central European Media Enterprises Ltd., entered into share purchase agreements
with Rootland Trading Limited (“Rootland”) to acquire 5% of Pro TV S.A.
(“Pro TV”) and 5% of Media Pro International S.A. (“MPI”) for
total aggregate consideration of USD 49.8 million. As a result of these
acquisitions, CME owns 95% of Pro TV and MPI. Rootland is controlled by Adrian
Sarbu, who owns the remaining 5% of Pro TV and MPI and is the general director
of our Romanian operations.
On
June1, 2007, CME also entered into two amendments to the Put Option Agreement dated
July 30, 2004, among CME, Adrian Sarbu and Rootland (the “Put Option
Agreement”). Following the sale of these interests in Pro TV and MPI by
Rootland to CME, only shares in Pro TV and MPI that are held directly by Mr.
Sarbu are subject to the put option under the Put Option
Agreement. Mr. Sarbu’s right to put these remaining interests is
exercisable from November 12, 2009, provided that we have not enforced a pledge
over this shareholding which Mr. Sarbu granted as security for our right to
put
to him our 10.0% shareholding in Media Pro. B.V. and Media Pro Management S.A.,
which are majority-owned and controlled by Mr. Sarbu.
Signatures
Pursuant
to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, we have duly caused
this report to be signed on our behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly
authorized.
