Earlier this month Motive Television exercised its right to purchase CCAN's 32.3 per cent ownership in Motive Television for 70,116 euros, equal to 10 cents per share. Since then, Motive has received an exercise notice granted to CCAN on September 17th 2010, under which Motive granted CCAN a put option to require the company to purchase the whole of CCAN's retained shareholding in Motive Television, representing the remaining 32.3 per cent of the company's issued share capital, at any time after the 18 month anniversary of completion of the acquisition by Motive of Adecq Digita.
