Munich, November 24, 2015 - AURELIUS SE & Co. KGaA ("AURELIUS" or the
"Company") announces the successful and entire placement and the pricing of

convertible into new and/or existing ordinary bearer shares with no par

America, Canada, Australia, South Africa, New Zealand and Japan or any
other jurisdiction in which offers or sales of the securities would be

Company to execute further strategic acquisitions to continue its
successful and long lasting growth strategy, thereby creating further value

strengthening our capital markets footprint and tapping a new source of
capital. We were able to issue the convertible bond in a challenging market
environment at attractive terms. We continue to see strong activity in the
market for company acquisitions and expect to complete additional
transactions in the remaining weeks of 2015 and in 2016."

The Bonds, which will have a stated maturity date of 1 December 2020 (the
"Maturity Date"), were issued at 100% of their principal amount with a
