Munich, 28 October 2015. The Management Board and the Supervisory Board of Fair Value REIT-AG (“Fair Value”) today unanimously approved the joint reasoned statement in accordance with Section 27 para. 1 German Securities Acquisition and Takeover Act (“WpÜG”) on the voluntary public takeover offer of DEMIRE Deutsche Mittelstand Real Estate AG (“DEMIRE”) dated 14 October 2015.
The Management Board and the Supervisory Board welcome the offer and again explicitly welcome the possibility to take the next growth step in form of the combination with DEMIRE and to build the leading German commercial player with a focus on German secondary locations.
The Management Board and the Supervisory Board believe that the offered consideration of two (2) DEMIRE shares for one (1) Fair Value share, with regard to the premium on the stock exchange price and the EPRA NAV of Fair Value represented by it, is fair, subject to the completion of the acquisition of the T6 portfolio and the materialization of the underlying assumptions at DEMIRE.
The Management Board and the Supervisory Board point out that the fairness of the consideration depends on the completion of the acquisition of the T6 portfolio. In the event that the acquisition of the T6 portfolio will not be effectively completed or the addition of the T6 portfolio will not result in the expected increase of DEMIRE’s equity in the amount of EUR 43.5 million, Fair Value shareholders who accept the Offer would, with respect to the pro-rata equity represented by the DEMIRE share, be diluted or the premium would be lower if in the event of the addition of the T6 Portfolio the effect on the equity was below the expected amount of EUR 43.5 million.
Since the Management Board and the Supervisory Board are not familiar with the agreements regarding the acquisition of the T6 portfolio and the provisions regarding the acquisition are not known to them, the Management Board and the Supervisory Board cannot conclusively assess, if and when and under which prerequisites the completion and transfer of the T6 portfolio to DEMIRE will occur. For this reason, the Management Board and the Supervisory Board recommend to accept the offer only if and when the completion of the acquisition of the T6 portfolio has been announced by DEMIRE and the shareholders have assured themselves, based on such announcement, that the increase of the equity expected as an effect of the completion of the acquisition of the T6 portfolio has materialized and that the final terms of the acquisition of the T6 Portfolio are not material adverse for DEMIRE.
