    The main result is the following theorem: Let \(M\) and \(M'\) be closed manifolds of dimension greater than or equal to five such that \(\mathbb R\times M\) and \(\mathbb R\times M'\) are diffeomorphic. Then for every contact structure \(\xi\) on the manifold \(M\), there exists a contact structure \(\xi'\) on the manifold \(M'\) such that the symplectications \(S_\xi M\) and \(S_{\xi'}M'\) are exact symplectomorphic.
