---------------------------------------------------------------------

The annual general meeting of mutares AG (ISIN: DE000A0SMSH2), which took
place in Munich on May 22, 2015, approved all resolutions proposed by the
management with large majority. The dividend payment of EUR 4.70 per share
and a capital increase from company funds (bonus issue) were approved.

With an attendance of 87.9% of the share capital, the AGM of mutares AG
took place in Munich on May 22, 2015. Almost unanimously, the AGM approved
the dividend payment of EUR 4.70 per share out of the distributable profit
of mutares AG (approved by 99.9%). The representative of DSW (Germany's
largest association of private investors) expressed the shareholders'
appreciation of mutares' development and its outstanding result in FY 2014.

To further increase liquidity and therefore the attractiveness of the
mutares' share, the AGM approved the proposed capital increase from company
funds and the reclassification of the share capital (bonus issue in the
ratio of 1:5) almost unanimously (approved by 99.9%).

The share capital of the company in the amount of EUR 2'339'722.00 will be
increased by EUR 11'698'610.00 to EUR 14'038'332.00 through a capital
increase from company funds of EUR 11'698'610.00 using partly the capital
reserve of EUR 24'716'086.00 as shown in the company's balance sheet as of
December 31, 2014. The number of issued shares will be six times higher,
growing from 2'339'722 shares to 14'038'322 shares. Hence, every
shareholder will receive five new shares for every share in his portfolio
as soon as the capital increase will be officially published in the German
Trade Register (Handelsregister) in a couple of weeks.
