Investor Response to Proposed Private and Secondary Placement

Sirius Real Estate, the leading operator of branded business parks providing conventional and flexible workspace to the German market, is pleased to confirm that it has had a positive response to the private and secondary placement announced on Thursday 9 June 2016 and the book has been significantly oversubscribed.

In total 66 200 000 ordinary shares were available for subscription or acquisition and the Company received bids for 169 396 165 ordinary shares (in respect of both the private and secondary placement) ("Private Placement Shares"). The book will clear at €0.53 (fifty three Euro cents). The Private Placement Shares will not be eligible to receive the final dividend of 1.30 Euro cents declared in respect of the twelve months ending 31 March 2016 or to participate in the scrip dividend alternative in relation to that dividend. Given the strength of the book and the opportunities available, the Board may use its discretion to increase the number of shares issued in terms of the private placement.

The Board is currently considering the final allocations and will make a more detailed announcement on Monday 13 June 2016.
