Centuria Property Funds Limited ( CPFL ), as Responsible Entity of Centuria Metropolitan REIT (ASX: CMA ), is pleased to announce the successful completion of the accelerated nonrenounceable entitlement offer ( Entitlement Offer ) announced on 10 October 2018.

The retail component of the Entitlement Offer ( Retail Entitlement Offer ) closed on 29 October 2018 raising approximately $97 million. This follows the successful completion of the institutional placement which raised $79 million and the institutional component of the Entitlement Offer which raised approximately $100m, providing a total equity raising of $276 million ( Equity Raising ).

Under the Retail Entitlement Offer, eligible retail securityholders were able to apply for their entitlement as well as additional new securities beyond their entitlement up to a maximum of 50% of their entitlement ( Additional Securities ). Existing retail securityholders took up approximately $14.7 million (including applications for Additional Securities and applications by retail securityholders who applied early and were allotted new securities on the same day as securities were allotted under the institutional component of the Entitlement Offer), with the remainder allocated to various institutional investors who sub-underwrote the Retail Entitlement Offer.

Application monies received for Additional Securities above 50% of an eligible retail securityholder's entitlement will not be accepted. Application monies received in respect of Additional Securities that are not allocated will be refunded.

Final settlement of the Retail Entitlement Offer will take place on 2 November 2018. Allotment of new securities issued under the Retail Entitlement Offer will occur on 5 November 2018 with trading to commence on the ASX on a normal settlement basis on 6 November 2018.
