Hanover, 5 July 2013 - In their joint meeting on 5 July 2013, the Executive
Board and Supervisory Board of Viscom AG, Hanover, Germany (ISIN
DE0007846867) resolved to propose the conversion of some of the company's
appropriated capital reserves into free capital reserves. This is to be
implemented by means of a capital increase out of retained earnings,
followed by an ordinary reduction of capital; this will be resolved at the
company's Extraordinary General Meeting to be held on 20 August 2013. The
convening of this Extraordinary General Meeting and further details are
expected to be announced in the German Federal Gazette on 10 July 2013.
The planned conversion of appropriated capital reserves into free capital
reserves encompasses 22,550,000.00 EUR of the company's total capital
reserves of 37,107,160.08 EUR (as of 31 December 2012) and is to be used
for the purpose of making Viscom AG's equity management more flexible and
to free up future dividend payments to shareholders and/or share buyback
programmes from capital reserves currently committed. Under German law, the
entity in question is obliged to perform a capital increase out of its
retained earnings followed by an 'ordinary reduction of capital' in order
to convert appropriated capital reserves into free capital reserves. The
