Abolishment of voting cap in S IMMO AG's ("S IMMO") articles approved CPI PROPERTY GROUP ("CPIPG") will file mandatory public takeover offer

The 33^rd Annual General Meeting of S IMMO held on 1 June 2022 voted with a majority of 98.44 % of the capital present in favour of the abolition of the voting cap pursuant to S IMMO's articles of association.

Following receipt of all merger control approvals required for the obtaining of sole control of CPIPG over S IMMO, the amendment of the articles has been filed with the Austrian companies register (Firmenbuch). S IMMO announced today that the abolishment of the voting cap will be registered and thus become effective tomorrow, 28 June 2022.

Upon such registration, CPIPG will obtain a controlling stake in S IMMO within the meaning of Section 22 Austrian Takeover Act (ÜbG) which conveys a dominating influence over S IMMO, thus triggering the obligation to file an offer document for a mandatory public takeover offer (Pflichtangebot) with the Austrian Takeover Commission (Übernahmekommission) within 20 trading days from registration. CPIPG will comply with this obligation without undue delay and in any event within all statutory timelines.

With regard to the dividend payment of EUR 0.65 per share made by S IMMO on 13 June 2022, the offer price payable to shareholders of S IMMO who accept the offer will amount to EUR 22.85 per S IMMO share.

To the extent permissible under applicable law or regulation, CPI PROPERTY GROUP and parties acting in concert with it or their respective brokers may purchase, or conclude agreements to purchase, shares in S IMMO, directly or indirectly, outside of the scope of the intended takeover offer, before, during or after the period in which the takeover offer remains open for acceptance.
