The partial utilisation of the authorised capital resolved by the General Meeting on 21 June 2016 will result in the share capital of the Company being increased from the current EUR 24,342,333.00 by up to EUR 6,085,583.00 to up to EUR 30,427,916.00. To implement this capital increase, MPC Capital AG plans to issue up to 6,085,583 new ordinary bearer shares with no par value (Stückaktien), each such share representing a notional interest in the share capital of EUR 1.00. The new shares will carry full dividend rights as from 1 January 2016. In the interest of increasing free float, the principal shareholder of the Company, MPC Participia GmbH, and other major shareholders have waived in advance the rights to subscribe approximately 3,500,000 new shares. Selected institutional investors outside the United States of America will be offered the opportunity to acquire these new shares in advance as part of a private placement ("Pre-placement"). The Pre-placement will be launched this evening. The placement price for the new shares to be placed in the Pre-Placement will be determined on the basis of an accelerated bookbuilding process as part of the Pre-placement, taking into account the current price of the existing shares of MPC Capital AG. The Subscription price for the Rights Offering (as defined below) will be identical to the placement price of the Pre-Placement, and is expected to be published on 13 September 2016 pursuant to Article 17 MAR. Following this, those shareholders of MPC Capital AG who have not waived their subscription rights may exercise their subscription right and subscribe the shares at the subscription price (the "Rights Offering"). The Rights Offering is expected to be published on 13 September 2016 in the Federal Gazette (Bundesanzeiger) and on MPC Capital AG's website. For the purposes of the Rights Offering, MPC Capital AG prepared a prospectus, which has been published on MPC Capital AG's website (www.mpc-capital.de/ ir). The Subscription Period, during which the shareholders of MPC Capital AG may exercise their subscription rights at the subscription price, is expected to begin on 14 September 2016 and conclude on 27 September 2016 (the "Subscription Period"). The subscription ratio will be 4 to 1, meaning that for every four existing shares (or as many subscription rights) they hold, shareholders with subscription rights (or those holding subscription rights) may subscribe one new share of MPC Capital AG. In the interest of maintaining an even subscription ratio, MPC Participia GmbH has waived one subscription right arising from one existing share. Furthermore, MPC Participia GmbH has undertaken to exercise all subscription rights not waived and, hence, to subscribe 420,000 new shares during the Subscription Period. As a consequence of the waiver of subscription rights, the share in MPC Capital AG held jointly by MPC Participia GmbH and MPC Shipping Beteiligungsgesellschaft mbH & Co. KG will initially be diluted to below 50%. As consideration for waiving its subscription rights, the MPC Capital AG will grant MPC Participia GmbH a priority right relating to the acquisition of new shares, which will neither be placed as part of the Pre-placement nor as part of the Rights Offering. Under that priority right, MPC Participia GmbH may acquire - subject to availability - at the subscription price as many new shares as required to ensure that it together with MPC Shipping Beteiligungsgesellschaft mbH & Co. KG is able to regain an equity interest of (at most) 50% plus one share in MPC Capital AG. The partial implementation of the capital increase as part of the Pre- placement is expected to be entered into the commercial register on 14 September 2016; the further implementation of the capital increase is expected to be entered on 29 September 2016. The net issue proceeds resulting from the Offering and the placement of the New Shares in the Company are primarily intended for financing the Company's further growth through the MPC Capital Group's equity investments in new real investment products by way of Co-investments. The new shares issued under the Pre-placement are expected to begin trading in the Entry Standard segment of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange on 15 September 2016. The Company reserves the right to discontinue the Offering in full or in part. Berenberg is advising on the Offering as the Sole Global Coordinator and together with M.M.Warburg as Joint Lead Manager and Joint Bookrunner (together the "Underwriters").
