Gilching, Germany, 9 October 2020 - In a pre-placement by way of an accelerated bookbuilding procedure, Mynaric AG today successfully placed EUR 52.8 million of its shares from a capital increase authorized earlier today with institutional investors. The pre-placement is subject to, among other things, the publication of a securities prospectus, which is expected to be approved by the German federal financial services supervisory authority (Bundesanstalt für Finanzdienstleistungsaufsicht) on or about 9 October 2020. The management board of Mynaric AG, with the consent of the supervisory board, adopted resolutions authorizing a EUR 800,000.00 increase in the share capital from EUR 3,194,734.00 to EUR 3,994,734.00 through the partial utilization of authorized capital against cash, with subscription rights for existing shareholders, by issuing 800,000 ordinary bearer shares (Inhaberaktien) with no-par value (Stückaktien), each such share representing a notional value of EUR 1.00 of the share capital and carrying full dividend rights as of 1 January 2020 (New Shares). In addition, on the basis of the results of the accelerated bookbuilding procedure, the management board, with the supervisory board's consent, set the subscription price at EUR 66.00 per New Share and the subscription ratio at 19 to 5, i.e., holders of nineteen existing shares are entitled to subscribe for five New Shares.
 

The subscription offer for shareholders will tentatively be published in the German Federal Gazette (Bundesanzeiger) on 9 October 2020. The subscription period will tentatively begin on and including 13 October 2020 and will expire at the end of and including 26 October 2020. Subscription rights that are not exercised upon the end of the subscription period will expire. The subscription rights (ISIN DE000A289WW7) for the New Shares are expected to be traded on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange during the period from on or about 16 October 2020 until on or about 22 October 2020 (until approximately 12:00 noon CEST). The existing shares are expected to be listed "ex subscription right" in the open market (Scale segment) of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange starting on or about 13 October 2020. New Shares sold in the pre-placement that are not subject to claw-back are expected to be delivered on or about 15 October 2020. New Shares subscribed in the subscription offer, as well as New Shares subject to claw-back that were not subscribed in the subscription offer, are expected to be delivered on or about 2 November 2020. The subscription offer is subject to, among other things, the publication of a securities prospectus, which is expected to be approved by the German federal financial services supervisory authority (Bundesanstalt für Finanzdienstleistungsaufsicht) on or about 9 October 2020.
 

By including a claw-back feature in the pre-placement share allocation, Hauck & Aufhäuser Privatbankiers AG has ensured that sufficient New Shares subject to subscription rights will be available for subscription by the shareholders of Mynaric AG participating in this subscription offer, except for those subscription rights which certain existing shareholders have waived and transferred to Hauck & Aufhäuser Privatbankiers AG.
 

Hauck & Aufhäuser Privatbankiers AG acted as Sole Global Coordinator and Sole Bookrunner in the capital increase.

About Mynaric

Mynaric is a manufacturer of laser communication technologies used to establish dynamic communication networks in air and space. Its laser data transmission products include ground stations and flight terminals, which allow very large quantities of data to be sent wirelessly over long distances between aircraft, autonomous drones, high altitude platforms, satellites and the ground at high data rates.

Globally, the need for fast and ubiquitous network connectivity is advancing inexorably. Data networks are today largely based on infrastructure on the ground, which cannot be expanded arbitrarily for legal, economic or logistical reasons. The future therefore calls for an expansion of the existing network infrastructure into air and space. With its laser data transmission products Mynaric is positioned as a pioneer in this growth market.

Important Information

This announcement does not contain or constitute an offer to sell nor a solicitation to buy or subscribe for securities.

This announcement is not a prospectus.

Copies of such prospectus are available free of charge from Mynaric AG, as well as, for viewing in electronic form, on the website of the Company.

This announcement is not an offer of securities for sale in the United States of America (the 'United States'). Securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an exemption from registration under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Any public offering of securities to be made in the United States would be made by means of a prospectus that could be obtained from the Company and that would contain detailed information about the Company and its management, as well as the financial statements of the Company. There will be no public offer of the securities in the United States.

In the United Kingdom, this information is directed at and/or for distribution only to (i) investment professionals falling within article 19(5) of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Financial Promotion) Order 2005, as amended (the 'Order'), or (ii) high net worth companies falling within article 49(2)(a) to (d) of the Order (all such persons are collectively referred to herein as 'relevant persons'). The securities are only available to, and any invitation, offer or agreement to subscribe, purchase or otherwise acquire such securities will be engaged in only with, relevant persons. Any person who is not a relevant person should not act or rely on this information or any of its contents.

In member states of the European Economic Area ('EEA'), in which the Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 as amended (the 'Prospectus Regulation') is in effect other than Germany and the United Kingdom (the 'Relevant Member States'), this announcement, and any offer following it, is only addressed to persons who are 'qualified investors' within the meaning of Article 2(e) of the Prospectus Regulation ('Qualified Investors'). It is assumed that each person in the Relevant Member States who acquires or is offered securities as part of an offering (an 'Investor') has represented and agreed that such person is a Qualified Investor; that securities purchased by such person as part of the offering are not being purchased for any person in the EEA other than a Qualified Investor or persons in Germany, the United Kingdom or another Relevant Member State with comparable legal provisions, with respect to whom the Investor may make decisions at its own discretion; and that the securities would not be purchased for offer or re-sale in the EEA, if this would lead to Mynaric AG or any of its affiliates being required to publish a prospectus under Article 3 of the Prospectus Regulation.

Subject to certain exceptions, the securities referred to herein may not be offered or sold in Australia, Canada or Japan or to, or for the account or benefit of, any national, resident or citizen of Australia, Canada or Japan.

We wish to caution you that these statements are only predictions and that actual events or results may differ materially. We do not intend to update these statements to reflect events and circumstances occurring after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
