|
|
|
TOKYO, October 24, 2002 - At board meetings today, the directors of CSK Corporation ("CSK") and CSK VENTURE CAPITAL CO., LTD. ("CSKVC") resolved that the latter become a wholly owned subsidiary of CSK through a share swap, concluding a memorandum of understanding on the decision.
The two companies plan to conclude a formal share swap contract in mid-November, with CSKVC seeking approval from shareholders at an extraordinary meeting in mid-December. The share swap is scheduled for February 1, 2003.
