Tele Columbus AG announces intended launch of capital increase and sets subscription price at EUR 3.25 per new share

Berlin, 17 April 2021. Tele Columbus AG (the "Company") (ISIN: DE000TCAG172, WKN: TCAG17), one of Germany's leading fiber network operators, announces the intended launch of a capital increase by way of a rights offering in order to achieve a sustainable capital structure and to further implement its Fiber Champion strategy. The new shares for the rights offering will originate from a capital increase against contributions in cash with subscription rights for the shareholders of the Company resolved by the Company's extraordinary general shareholders' meeting on 20 January 2021 in connection with the public takeover offer by Kublai GmbH ("Kublai"). The Company expects gross proceeds from the rights offering in an amount of approximately EUR 475 million.

The management board and supervisory board of the Company today resolved that, following approval by the German Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (Bundesanstalt für Finanzdienstleistungsaufsicht (BaFin)) of the related securities prospectus, the Company will offer 146.109.887 new shares in a public rights offering in Germany.

The new shares for the rights offering will originate from a capital increase as resolved by the Company's extraordinary general shareholders' meeting on 20 January 2021 in connection with the public takeover offer by Kublai. The new shares, which will have full dividend rights as from 1 January 2021, will be offered to the Company's shareholders by means of subscription rights at a ratio of 55 to 63, i.e. 55 existing shares will entitle a shareholder to subscribe for 63 new shares. The subscription price per new share has been set at EUR 3.25. The Company does not intend to apply for trading of the subscription rights on the regulated marked (regulierter Markt) of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (Frankfurter Wertpapierbörse).

According to a backstop agreement entered into between the Company and Kublai on 21 December 2021 in connection with the public takeover offer by Kublai, Kublai has undertaken to exercise its subscription rights in the rights offering and to directly subscribe such number of new shares which, multiplied with the subscription price, together with the aggregate subscription price payable by the Company's other existing shareholders who have exercised their subscription rights, will result in gross proceeds from the offering in the amount of EUR 475 million ("Backstop Cap"). If, after exercise of its subscription rights, the aggregate subscription price payable by Kublai and together with the aggregate subscription price payable by the Company's other existing shareholders who have exercised their subscription rights, falls short of the Backstop Cap, Kublai has undertaken to directly subscribe for such number of additional new shares not subscribed in the rights offering (to the extent available) at the subscription price as is required to reach the Backstop Cap.

Because the dividend entitlement for the Company's new shares as of 1 January 2021 will initially deviate from that of the Company's existing shares, the new shares will initially be assigned a different ISIN, WKN and Ticker Symbol than the existing shares. After the general shareholders' meeting of the Company, which will resolve on the distribution of dividends (if any) for the financial year ended 31 December 2020 with respect to the existing shares, has taken place, the new shares will be assigned the same ISIN, WKN and Ticker Symbol as the existing shares

The Company will publish a securities prospectus following the approval by the German Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin) that will form the basis of the subscription offer, which will be published in the Federal Gazette (Bundesanzeiger) in due course. The securities prospectus, which is expected to be published in a timely manner, and the subscription offer will contain further details regarding the subscription period during which shareholders may exercise their subscription rights and the expected timing of the admission to trading of the new shares on the regulated market of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (Prime Standard).
