NOT FOR RELEASE, PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, IN OR
INTO THE UNITED STATES, AUSTRALIA, CANADA OR JAPAN.
IMMOFINANZ AG ("IMMOFINANZ") announces the successful placement of 8.5
million ordinary shares (the "Placing Shares") in BUWOG AG (the "Company").
The deal size was increased from the initially envisaged transaction size
of approx. 5 million Shares following demand in the bookbuilding. The
Placing Shares represent approximately 8.5% of the Company's issued share
capital. The selling price was equal to Euro 17.625 per share, in line with
today's closing price of the Shares, generating total gross proceeds to
IMMOFINANZ of approximately Euro 150 million. The transaction is expected
to settle on 17 September, 2015.
IMMOFINANZ will use the proceeds of the placement to partially fund the
payment to Bondholders who have accepted the cash option of the exchange
offer for IMMOFINANZ's EUR 375 million bonds exchangeable into shares of
the Company and who have elected to receive cash pursuant to such offer.
The remainder of the exchange offer will be funded by available liquidity
by IMMOFINANZ.
IMMOFINANZ will accept the offers made by the holders of 99.8% of the
aggregate nominal amount of IMMOFINANZ's EUR 375 million bonds exchangeable
into BUWOG shares (the "Bonds") in the incentivized exchange offer launched
on 1 September 2015 and hereby waives the condition that all Company shares
underlying the Bonds offered for acceptance under the cash option will be
sold in an accelerated bookbuilding. The settlement of the incentive offer
(payment of the cash consideration and/or incentive premium and delivery of
the shares underlying the Bonds where applicable) is expected to take place
on 18 September, 2015.
Following settlement of both transactions, IMMOFINANZ will hold
approximately 38.5 million ordinary shares in the Company.
