UMS United Medical Systems International AG i. A.: Payment of an advance on
the liquidation proceeds to the shareholders

Hamburg, May 27, 2016. The liquidator of UMS United Medical Systems
International AG i. A. (UMS, ISIN DE 0005493654 / WKN 549365) (the
"Company") has resolved today with the consent of the Supervisory Board of
the Company to pay to the shareholders of the Company an advance on the
liquidation proceeds. An amount of EUR 2.90 will be paid out on each non-
par value bearer share of the Company. The payment will be effected in two
tranches. The first tranche of EUR 2.00 will be paid out to the
shareholders on June 8, 2016 and the second tranche of EUR 0,90 will be
paid out after the expiry of the fixed-term deposit on August 2, 2016. The
payment of both tranches will be effected by the depositary banks via
Clearstream Banking AG.

A potential taxation of the payment on the level of the shareholders
depends on, inter alia, the individual situation of the shareholders (e.g.,
if the shares of the Company are being held as private or business assets).
The entire payment will be made from the tax contribution account
(steuerliches Einlagenkonto) Hence, the payment should not be taxable for
the shareholders save in exceptional cases. The concrete taxation situation
of the shareholders depends, however, on the individual case. A definitive
statement on a potential tax liability of the shareholders with respect to
the payment can only be made by each shareholder's tax advisor.

The remaining net assets of the Company will amount to approx. EUR 2,9
million after the payment of the advance on the liquidation proceeds and
are being retained mainly to cover unforeseeable costs until the end of the
liquidation. Further payments on the liquidation proceeds will be reviewed
by the liquidator on an ongoing basis and, where appropriate, resolved on
by the liquidator with the supervisory board's consent.
