Xior announces modalities optional dividend 2024

Issue price 27.02 EUR (4% discount to closing price 14 May 2025)

Coupons relating to the 2024 result (no. 25 & 26) were already detached earlier

CONDITIONS RELATING TO THE OPTIONAL DIVIDEND FOR THE 2024 FINANCIAL YEAR

The board of directors of the public regulated real estate company Xior Student Housing (hereinafter also the "Company") (Euronext: XIOR - ISIN BE0974288202) has decided, within the framework of the authorised capital, to offer Xior's shareholders, by way of an optional dividend, the opportunity to constitute their claim (arising from the dividend payment) to the capital of Xior.

From 20 May 2025 until 28 May 2025 (4 p.m. CET), one new share may be subscribed to per either 74 coupons no. 25 or 31 coupons no. 26 at the issue price of 27.02 EUR.

Shareholders were informed of the specific modalities of this optional dividend, including the issue price and the option period, at today's Annual General Meeting, Thursday 15 May 2025. Subsequently, the General Meeting approved the dividend per share amounting to 1.768 EUR gross (1.2376 EUR net, i.e. the net dividend per share after deduction of 30% withholding tax). The gross dividend of 1.768 EUR is represented by coupon no. 25 (already detached from the Xior share on 16 April 2024, amounting to 0.5217 EUR) and coupon no. 26 (already detached from the Xior share on 17 January 2025, amounting to 1.2463 EUR). Both coupons were thus already detached earlier.

Xior's reference shareholder, Aloxe NV has indicated its intention to participate in the proposed optional dividend for the total amount of its participation in Xior.

Within the framework of the authorised capital, Xior's board of directors has decided to make use of the option to offer shareholders an optional dividend. By doing so, they are offered the option of (i) either contributing the net dividend claim to the capital of the Company against the issue of new shares, (ii) receiving the dividend in cash, (iii) or opting for a combination of the two previous options.

The new Xior shares that will be issued under the optional dividend, with coupon no. 28 attached, will share in the company's result for the current financial year 2025 with effect from 14 April 2025.

To the extent that its shareholders opt for the optional dividend, they offer Xior the opportunity to strengthen the Company's equity and therefore reduce its (legally capped) debt ratio. The optional dividend further leads (in proportion to the contribution of net dividend rights to the Company's capital) to a retention of resources within the Company that strengthen its equity position. In addition, it strengthens ties with shareholders.

Shareholders thus have a choice between:

Payment of the dividend in cash:

A total gross dividend of 1.768 EUR will be paid (1.2376 EUR net, i.e. the net dividend per share after deduction of 30% withholding tax) per share. The gross dividend of 1,768 EUR is represented by:

  • coupon no. 25 in the amount of 0.5217 EUR, and
  • coupon no. 26 in the amount of 1.2463 EUR.

Contribution of dividend for new ordinary Xior shares:

One new share may be subscribed to via contribution of the net dividend rights attached to

  • Either 74 coupons no. 25,
  • or 31 coupons no. 26.

The number of coupons no. 25 and coupons no. 26 to be contributed is calculated by dividing the issue price per new share by the net dividend claim per coupon no. 25 and coupon no. 26, respectively, and rounding up this result to the higher number. Per new share subscribed for, coupons with the same number must always be contributed. A combination of coupons no. 25 and coupons no. 26 is therefore not possible when subscribing to the same new share.

Since the total amount of net dividend rights linked to a certain number of coupons no. 26 does not correspond exactly to the issue price of 27.02 EUR for one new share, the difference between these two amounts will be paid in cash. For each new share to which a shareholder subscribes by contributing net dividend rights attached to coupon no. 26, the shareholder will still receive a cash component equal to the difference between the total amount of net dividend rights attached to the number of coupons of a certain coupon number that entitle the holder to one new share and the issue price of one new share. This cash component amounts to, rounded down to two decimal places, 0.02 EUR per new share subscribed by a shareholder with coupons no. 26.

The issue price per new share was determined on the basis of the average of the "volume weighted average share price" ("VWAP") of the Xior share as made available via Bloomberg during the period of three (3) trading days preceding the capital increase decision, i.e. from 12 May 2025 to 14 May 2025, i.e. (rounded) 28.2858 EUR.

The issue price of 27.02 EUR per share implies a discount of approx. 4.48% compared to the reference share price used. Based on the closing price on 14 May 2025, the discount amounts to approx. 3.84%.

Combination of payment methods:

Shareholders may also opt for a combination of a contribution in kind of dividend rights against the issue of new shares and a payment of the dividend in cash.

Shareholders are invited to make their choice under the optional dividend from 20 May 2025 and no later than 28 May 2025 (4 p.m. CET). Holders of registered shares can contact the Company for this purpose, and should follow the instructions they will receive by letter from the Company. Holders of dematerialised shares can contact ING Belgium if they hold an account there, or their financial institution where they

hold their shares, and should follow the instructions of their financial institution for the registration of their choice.

Shareholders who have not made their choice known in the required manner by 28 May 2025 (4 p.m. CET) will receive their dividends automatically and exclusively in cash.

The Information Memorandum relating to the optional dividend available from Thursday 15 May 2025 contains further information in connection with the optional dividend. The Information Memorandum is available, subject to certain customary restrictions, on the following website. Please review this Information Memorandum before making any decision.

On 5 June 2025, the fulfilment of the capital increase and the issue of the new shares will be determined. On that day, the results of the optional dividend will also be announced. The actual dividend payment will take place on 5 June 2025. ING Belgium, as paying agent of the transaction, will deliver the new shares and/or pay out the cash portion according to the choice made by the shareholder.

The Company will submit an application to Euronext Brussels for the additional listing of the new shares issued as a result of the capital increase in the context of the optional dividend and intends that the new shares will be admitted to trading on Euronext Brussels from 5 June 2025.

The financial service under the optional dividend will be provided by ING Belgium.
