1.
On 24 March 2006, the Commission received a notification of a proposed concentration pursuant to
Article 4 and following a referral pursuant to Article 4(5) of Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (1) by
which the undertaking Axalto Holding NV (‘Axalto’, The Netherlands) acquires within the meaning of
Article 3(1)(b) of the Council Regulation control of the whole of the undertaking Gemplus International SA
(‘Gemplus’, Luxemburg) by way of purchase of shares.

Both undertakings concerned are suppliers of secure plastic cards and related software, hardware, and

2.
services for a variety of applications (SIM card, payment card, etc.).

On preliminary examination, the Commission finds that the notified transaction could fall within the

3.
scope of Regulation (EC) No 139/2004. However, the final decision on this point is reserved.

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

4.
operation to the Commission.
