AEDIFICA

Public limited liability company Public regulated real estate company under Belgian law Office: Rue Belliard 40 (box 11), 1040 Brussels Enterprise number: 0877.248.501 (RLE Brussels, French division) (the 'Company')

Successful private placement by way of an accelerated bookbuilding of 2,925,000 New Shares with international institutional investors at an issue price of EUR 87 per share, resulting in EUR 254,475,000 gross proceeds

  • - Aedifica (the "Company") successfully completed a capital increase in cash, within the authorised capital, through the issuance of 2,925,000 new shares (the "New Shares") placed via an exempt private placement by way of an accelerated bookbuilding with international institutional investors (the "Offering"), with cancellation of the preferential subscription right of, and without allocation of an irreducible allocation right to, existing shareholders.
  • - 2,925,000 New Shares, corresponding to 8.0% of the outstanding capital prior to the capital increase, were placed at EUR 87 per New Share. The issue price represents a discount of 5.32% compared to the price of the Aedifica share immediately prior to suspension of trading on 23 June 20221 (EUR 91.89 per share) (after reduction by the estimated value of coupon no. 30, see further), and a premium of 8.71% compared to the last reported net asset value2 . The Offering raised gross proceeds of EUR 254,475,000.
  • - The Company will use the net proceeds of the Offering to:
    1. finance execution of the committed investment program3 ;
    1. strengthen the balance sheet in order to pursue the Company's growth strategy through new developments and acquisitions in the European healthcare real estate market while maintaining a solid debt-to-asset ratio.

3 As mentioned in the Q1 results press release published on 11 May 2022 and subsequent press releases.

1 See press release of 23 June 2022 announcing the transaction.

2 The net asset value per share based on the fair value of investment properties amounted to EUR 80.03 as of 31 March 2022.

  • - So as to permit the issuance of the New Shares with dividend entitlement as of their issuance, the Company has, in the context of the Offering, requested to detach coupon no. 30 from its existing shares, effective as of 27 June 2022 (ex-coupon date). Coupon no. 30 will represent the entitlement to the pro rata temporis dividend for the current financial year from 1 January 2022 up to and including 28 June 2022, with an estimated value (gross) of EUR 1.8145 based on the dividend guidance for the current financial year set forth in the quarterly report published on 11 May 2022. The following dividend coupon (coupon no. 31) will therefore represent the entitlement to the dividend for the current financial year pro rata temporis from 29 June 2022 until the end of the financial year. The New Shares will be issued with coupon no. 31 et seq. attached. This means that, while the New Shares that will be issued in the context of the Offering will be issued without coupon no. 30, the existing shares will continue to trade with coupon no. 30 up to and including 24 June 2022. Upon the actual issuance of the New Shares (which is expected on 29 June 2022), the existing shares and the New Shares will all trade with coupon no. 31 et seq. attached and hence have the same dividend rights.
  • - The issuance, delivery and admission to trading on the regulated markets of Euronext Brussels and Euronext Amsterdam of the New Shares is expected to take place on 29 June 2022.
  • - In the context of the Offering, trading of the Aedifica share was temporarily suspended and shall resume today (24 June 2022), as of the start of trading.
  • - BNP Paribas Fortis SA/NV, Kempen & Co and Morgan Stanley & Co. International plc have acted as Joint Global Coordinators, and ABN AMRO (in cooperation with ODDO BHF SCA), Belfius Kepler Cheuvreux, ING Belgium NV and KBC Securities have together with the Joint Global Coordinators acted as Joint Bookrunners.

INFORMATION TO DISTRIBUTORS

The Joint Bookrunners have informed the Company that the following information is intended for distributors only. The information is provided by the Joint Bookrunners and the Company does not assume responsibility for it.

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"), the Joint Bookrunners have informed the Company that they have submitted the New Shares subject of the proposed Private Placement to a product approval process, which has determined that such 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 (the "Target Market Assessment"). Notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, distributors should note that: the price of the New Shares may decline and investors could lose all or part of their investment; the New Shares offer no guaranteed income and no capital protection; and 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 proposed Private Placement. It is further noted that, notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, the Joint Bookrunners will only attract 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.
