Dissemination of an Ad hoc announcement according to § 15 WpHG, transmitted

The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement.
Berlin, 19 June 2012 - ESTAVIS AG has placed convertible bonds with a total
nominal amount of EUR 8.6 million. The issue was primarily subscribed by
institutional investors. Andreas Lewandowski, Managing Director of ESTAVIS,
expressed his satisfaction with the transaction, particularly that new
investors in the company could be brought on board in spite of the
difficult capital markets environment.
In parallel with the bond issuance transaction, ESTAVIS was able to take a
significant first step toward its new strategy of building a high-return
portfolio of investment properties in Germany with the acquisition of a
residential building complex in Itzehoe, a town on the outskirts of
Hamburg. The cost of the property was approx. EUR 12 million. With its
current rental income of EUR 1.3 million annually, the recently renovated
and almost completely rented buildings will yield positive cash flow from
day one, along with the potential for value appreciation.
The five-year bonds pay an annual interest coupon of 7.75%. Each bond
entitles the holder to convert it into one common share at a conversion
price of EUR 2.40 at any time during the period from 6 August 2012 until
ten business days before final bond maturity in 2017.
The transaction was managed by Frankfurt investment bank Close Brothers
Seydler Bank AG, which served as Sole Lead Manager and Sole Bookrunner.
