B.R.A.I.N. Biotechnology Research and Information Network AG resolves on a cash capital increase from authorised capital.

Zwingenberg, Germany, 3 June, 2020. The Management Board of B.R.A.I.N. Biotechnology Research and Information Network AG ("BRAIN", or the "Company") has resolved, with the approval of the Supervisory Board, to increase the Company's share capital against cash contribution by issuing new registered shares with no par value with targeted proceeds of approximately EUR 13 million. Each such share has a notional value of EUR 1.00 of the Company's share capital (the "New Shares"). The share capital is to be increased through partial utilization of the existing authorized capital pursuant to to Section 5(2) of the Company's Articles of Association (the "Capital Increase"). The statutory subscription rights of the Company's shareholders were excluded pursuant to Sections 203 (1), 186 (3) sentence 4 of the German Stock Corporation Act (AktG). The New Shares will carry full dividend rights for the fiscal year 2019/2020 beginning on October 1, 2019.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Capital Increase (i) to finance capital expenditures intended to increase the efficiency of the Company's production process in the enzymes area; (ii) to accelerate R&D for product development; (iii) for opportunistic bolt-on acquisitions; (iv) for the buy-out of certain minority shareholders in the Company's subsidiaries; and (v) for general corporate purposes.

BRAIN's main shareholder has also announced its intention to participate in the Capital Increase. The New Shares will be offered for purchase in a private placement by way of an accelerated bookbuilding. The private placement will commence immediately after the publication of this announcement. The final offer price of the New Shares will be announced upon completion of the bookbuilding process expected to be on 4 June 2020.

The New Shares are expected to be admitted to trading without a prospectus on 9 June 2020, and on 11 June 2020, included in the quotation of the existing shares on the regulated market of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (Prime Standard).

Following the transaction, the Company will be subject to a lock-up period, with market standard exceptions, ending 180 calendar days after the Closing Date.

Information to Distributors of New Shares

Solely for the purposes of the product governance requirements contained within: (a) EU Directive 2014/65/EU on markets in financial instruments, as amended ('MiFID II'); (b) Articles 9 and 10 of Commission Delegated Directive (EU) 2017/593 supplementing MiFID II; and (c) local implementing measures (together, the 'MiFID II Product Governance Requirements'), and disclaiming all and any liability, whether arising in tort, contract or otherwise, which any 'manufacturer' (a 'Manufacturer') (for the purposes of the MiFID II Product Governance Requirements) may otherwise have with respect thereto, the New Shares have been subject to a product approval process, which has determined that the New Shares are (i) compatible with an end target market of retail investors and investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties, each as defined in MiFID II; and (ii) eligible for distribution through all distribution channels as are permitted by MiFID II (a 'Target Market Assessment'). Any person subsequently offering, selling or recommending the New Shares (a 'Distributor') should take into consideration the Manufacturers' relevant Target Market Assessments; however, each Distributor subject to MiFID II is responsible for undertaking its own Target Market Assessment in respect of the New Shares (by either adopting or refining the Manufacturers' Target Market Assessments) and determining, in each case, appropriate distribution channels. In respect of the New Shares, notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, Distributors (for the purposes of the MiFID II Product Governance Requirements) should note that: (i) the price of the New Shares may decline and investors could lose all or part of their investment; (ii) the New Shares offer no guaranteed income and no capital protection; and (iii) an investment in the New Shares is compatible only with investors who do not need a guaranteed income or capital protection, who (either alone or in conjunction with an appropriate financial or other adviser) are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of such an investment and who have sufficient resources to be able to bear any losses that may result therefrom. The Target Market Assessment is without prejudice to the requirements of any contractual, legal or regulatory selling restrictions in relation to the New Shares. Furthermore, it is noted that, notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, the Banks will only procure investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Target Market Assessment does not constitute: (a) an assessment of suitability or appropriateness for the purposes of MiFID II; or (b) a recommendation to any investor or group of investors to invest in, or purchase, or take any other action whatsoever with respect to the New Shares.

Each distributor is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the New Shares and determining appropriate distribution channels.
