DIC Asset AG resolves on capital increase against cash contributions of up to 9.49 percent

Today, the management board of DIC Asset AG (the 'Company') has resolved, with the consent of the supervisory board, to increase the Company's share capital by up to 9.49% by issuing up to 6,857,774 new shares. The statutory subscription rights of the shareholders are excluded. The new shares carry the same rights as the existing shares and will be admitted to trading on the regulated market of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, with simultaneous admission to the sub-segment of the regulated market with additional post-admission obligations (Prime Standard).

TTL Real Estate GmbH, which belongs to the Deutsche Immobilien Chancen Group, and the RAG Foundation have agreed to purchase 2,336,248 and 685,777 new shares in the bookbuilding process.

The Company intends to use the expected net proceeds from the offering for the Company's growth strategy, in particular to finance the acquisitions for the Commercial Portfolio, and for general corporate purposes.

The new shares will be offered for purchase exclusively to institutional investors in a private placement by way of an accelerated bookbuilding ('ABB') process, which starts immediately following the publication of this disclosure. The order book is expected to close tomorrow, although the Company reserves the right to close the order book at any time. The first trading day of the new shares is expected to be on 24 January 2020. Delivery of the new shares is envisaged for Friday, 24 January 2020. Following the private placement, DIC Asset AG will be subject to a market-standard lock-up period of three months.
Joh. Berenberg, Gossler & Co. KG is acting as Sole Global Coordinator and Sole Bookrunner for the transaction.
