Babelsberger Beteiligungs GmbH, a subsidiary of Obotritia Capital KGaA, has committed to subscribe for around one third of the New Shares. The remaining New Shares shall be offered for purchase in a private placement by way of an accelerated bookbuilding process exclusively to institutional investors. The private placement will commence immediately after the publication of this announcement and end tomorrow before start of trading at the latest, or at short notice at any time before. The Company has agreed to a six-month lock-up period with market-customary exceptions. The placement price of the New Shares will be determined in the accelerated bookbuilding process and is expected to be published no later than tomorrow. The New Shares shall be admitted to trading without prospectus on the regulated market of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange with simultaneous admission to the sub-segment thereof with additional post-admission obligations (Prime Standard) as well as on the regulated market of the Berlin Stock Exchange immediately after the Capital Increase has been registered with the commercial register which is expected to take place on 19 May 2020.
