bmp media investors AG: Change in business purpose

The Executive Board and the Supervisory Board of bmp media investors AG
resolved today to propose a change in the company's business purpose to the
shareholders at the General Stockholders' Meeting on 17 June 2015.

The reason for this decision is the current interpretation of the German
Investment Code (Kapitalanlagegesetzbuch - KAGB) by the German Federal
Financial Supervisory Authority (Bundesanstalt für
Finanzdienstleistungsaufsicht - BaFin), which means that, without a
corresponding amendment to the governing charter, bmp media investors AG
would in future be subject to additional regulations leading to additional
financial burdens and restrictions on its freedom of action that the
Executive Board and the Supervisory Board consider to be unreasonable for
the shareholders and the company.

The Executive Board of bmp media investors AG does not share BaFin's view,
but wishes to minimise resulting risks in order to protect shareholder
value. To this end, the Executive Board plans to submit an amendment to the
governing charter with regard to the business purpose of bmp media
investors AG to the General Stockholders' Meeting for decision.

In future, the company is to act as an operating industrial holding company
that acquires and holds majority interests in companies in a market segment
that has yet to be determined. Holdings that do not fit with the company's
future alignment are to be sold.

In taking these measures, the Executive Board and the Supervisory Board not
only intend to avoid incalculable risks arising from different
interpretations of the KAGB, but are also convinced that the reorganisation
as an operating industrial holding company will sustainably increase the
company's stock market value.
