Prior notification of a concentration

(Case No. COMP/M.3469 – PLATINUM/DYSTAR)

Candidate case for simplified procedure

(2004/C 169/02)

(Text with EEA relevance)

1. On 18.6.2004, the Commission received a notification of a proposed concentration pursuant to
Article 4 of Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (1) by which the undertaking Platinum Equity, LLC
(‘Platinum’, USA) acquires within the meaning of Article 3(1)(b) of the Council Regulation control of the
whole of the undertaking Dystar Textilfarben GmbH & Co (‘Dystar’, Germany) by way of purchase of
shares.

2.

The business activities of the undertakings concerned are:

— for Platinum: global organization specializing in the acquisition and strategic management of compa-

nies with activities in various industries;

— for Dystar: manufacturing and distribution of textile dyes worldwide.

3. On preliminary examination, the Commission finds that the notified concentration could fall within
the scope of Regulation (EC) No 139/2004. However, the final decision on this point is reserved. Pursuant
to the Commission Notice on a simplified procedure for treatment of certain concentrations under Council
Regulation (EEC) No 4064/89 (2) it should be noted that this case is a candidate for treatment under the
procedure set out in the Notice.

The Commission invites interested third parties to submit their possible observations on the proposed

4.
operation to the Commission.

Observations must reach the Commission not later than 10 days following the date of this publication.
Observations can be sent to the Commission by fax (fax no. +32/2/2964301 or 2967244) or by post,
