January 18, 2016

Vinge, in cooperation with Dechert LLP as lead legal advisor, advised Valneva SE in connection with its acquisition of Crucell Sweden AB, the Nordics vaccine distribution business of the seller (Crucell Holland B.V.) and all assets, licenses and privileges related to Dukoral®, a vaccine against cholera and, in some countries, diarrhea caused by ETEC. Valneva is a Lyon based biotechnology company listed at Euronext Paris and at the Vienna stock exchange. The consideration amounted to € 45 million and the acquisition was completed on 9 February 2015.

European Commission provides sanctions compliance guidance

The European Commission has recently issued three opinions regarding the interpretation of asset freeze provisions in certain sanctions legislation pertaining to Central African Republic, Ukraine, Libya and Syria. The opinions are also of relevance for other sanctions regimes which provide for the same or similar restrictions. Therefore, their practical relevance goes far beyond the sanctions regimes in the context of which they were issued and they therefore provide for helpful guidance regarding the required thresholds for sanctions compliance generally.
