Dear Shareholders, dear Readers,

DEMIRE AT A GLANCE
INTERIM GROUP MANAGEMENT REPORT

INTERIM CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

INPRINT
the year continues to be defined by a challenging economic environment with negative effects on the commercial real estate market. First of all, demand for rental space remained subdued, although DEMIRE was able to buck the trend by letting more space than in the previous year. Rent levels for the space let by us also remained stable for the most part or even increased slightly. Secondly, the European Central Bank's interest rate cuts have not yet led to a significant increase in revenues in the transaction markets for commercial real estate investments. While the mood and willingness to talk have improved, as we recently saw at Expo Real, the banks' continued reluctance to provide financing often still hinders real estate transactions. Nevertheless, in recent months we have succeeded in further streamlining our portfolio by selling several smaller assets that were not consistent with our strategy, meaning that we are currently in advanced sales negotiations for several properties.

In light of this market environment and taking into account the real estate sales that have taken place, DEMIRE has achieved solid results. Rental income fell by $15.4 \%$ to EUR 50.6 million in the first nine months of 2024, primarily due to the smaller portfolio base following sales. At the same time, funds from Operations I after taxes (FFO I) fell by $17.5 \%$ year-on-year to EUR 23.0 million, mainly due to a decline in rental income as a result of property sales.

In the third quarter, we strengthened our asset management team and organisational structure. We therefore see ourselves as well positioned to further increase our letting performance in the coming quarters and to gradually reduce the vacancy rate. Furthermore, we are focusing on the measures introduced to improve the sustainability of our company and portfolio. Among other things, we will be developing a climate protection transition plan for DEMIRE that will set out our planned development into a sustainable real estate company. We will also be implementing numerous targeted individual measures from this plan across the properties with the aim of gradually steering our portfolio towards sustainability.

After the first nine months, the Executive Board can confirm the forecast for the 2024 financial year: rental income will be between EUR 64.0 million and EUR 66.0 million (2023: EUR 78.5 million), and FFO I (after taxes, before minority interests) is expected to be significantly lower than in the previous year (2023: EUR 36.7 million).

We hope you find this report a stimulating read and look forward to your comments and ideas.

OVERVIEW

BUSINESS PERFORMANCE

DEMIRE's business performed well in the first nine months of 2024. In the reporting period, the insolvency of Mein Real in particular had a negative impact on the vacancy rate and the like-for-like development of the annualised contractual rent. Funds from operations fell, partly as a result of the property sales that took place. The letting performance more than doubled compared to the previous year despite the continued weakness of the letting markets. The Group's key figures, taking into account the property sales and against the backdrop of the weak economic environment, are also solid overall and in line with the company's planning and expectations. Deconsolidation of the Limes companies in July 2024 shrank the real estate portfolio by the properties in Essen, Kassel, Aschheim and Cologne (Max-Glomsda-Straße), thereby reducing rental income and indirectly FFO I.

DEMIRE's key indicators improved in the first nine months of 2024 as follows:

  • Rental income decreased to EUR 50.6 million (previous year: EUR 59.9 million).
  • Profit from rental income amounted to EUR 34.4 million, compared to EUR 43.4 million in the same period of the previous year.
  • Funds from operations (FFO I, after taxes, before minority interests) decreased by $17.5 \%$ to EUR 23.0 million.
  • The letting performance increased significantly to around $60,310 \mathrm{~m}^{2}$ compared to $27,240 \mathrm{~m}^{2}$ in the same period of the previous year.
  • The like-for-like development in annualised contractual rents was $-3.2 \%$ compared to 30 September 2023. The slight decline is due in particular to the increase in vacancies in Darmstadt and as a result of the insolvency of Mein Real in Querfurt. The indexation of existing rental agreements continued to have the opposite effect.
  • The EPRA vacancy rate ${ }^{1}$ rose to $14.7 \%$ (30 June 2024: 15.5\%, 31 December 2023: $13.1 \%$ ), while the WALT decreased slightly to 4.4 years ( 31 December 2023: 4.6 years).
  • The NAV per share (undiluted) decreased, mainly due to the valuation of a real estate sub-portfolio in the middle of the year, to EUR 2.98 compared to EUR 3.24 at the end of 2023.
  • The net loan-to-value ratio ${ }^{2}$ (net LTV) fell significantly to $52.3 \%$ (31 December 2023: 57.7\%), while liquidity increased to EUR 164.5 million as at the reporting date (31 December 2023: EUR 132.3 million).
  • The average nominal financing costs are 1.89\% p.a. (31 December 2023: $1.74 \%$ p.a.).

PERFORMANCE IN LINE WITH FORECAST FOR THE 2024 FINANCIAL YEAR Given the development in the first nine months of 2024, the Executive Board can confirm the forecast for the 2024 financial year: rental income will be between EUR 64.0 million and EUR 66.0 million (2023: EUR 78.5 million), and for FFO I (after taxes, before minority interests) a significantly lower amount is expected compared to 2023 (2023: EUR 36.7 million).

PROPERTY PORTFOLIO

Between the end of the previous year and the reporting date, the property portfolio decreased to 54 properties ( 31 December 2023: 59 properties). The lettable area of the buildings in the portfolio is around $613,000 \mathrm{~m}^{2}$ ( 31 December 2023: 858,400 $\mathrm{m}^{2}$ ) and the total market value is approximately EUR 0.8 billion ( 31 December 2023: approximately EUR 1.1 billion). An external property valuation of a sub-portfolio was last performed on 30 June 2024.

The EPRA Vacancy Rate ${ }^{1}$ increased as at the reporting date of 30 September 2024 to $14.7 \%$, following $13.1 \%$ on 31 December 2023. The increase is mainly due to the additional vacancy of the commercial property in Darmstadt, as well as the space following the insolvency of Mein Real in Querfurt. WALT was 4.4 years as at 30 September 2024, compared to 4.6 years as at year-end 2023. In the period under review, DEMIRE achieved a rental performance of $60,310 \mathrm{~m}^{2}$ (9M 2023: 27,240 $\mathrm{m}^{2}$ ). $68 \%$ of the letting performance was attributable to new lettings and $32 \%$ to followon lettings. The letting performance was driven, among other things, by new lettings of over $4,680 \mathrm{~m}^{2}$ in Leipzig, over $4,060 \mathrm{~m}^{2}$ in Essen and over $3,430 \mathrm{~m}^{2}$ in Bad Vlibel, as well as extensions of over $23,260 \mathrm{~m}^{2}$ in Bonn, over $6,020 \mathrm{~m}^{2}$ in Schwerin and over $3,660 \mathrm{~m}^{2}$ in Freiburg.

PROPERTY PORTFOLIO

Between the end of the previous year and the reporting date, the property portfolio decreased to 54 properties ( 31 December 2023: 59 properties). The lettable area of the buildings in the portfolio is around $613,000 \mathrm{~m}^{2}$ ( 31 December 2023: 858,400 $\mathrm{m}^{2}$ ) and the total market value is approximately EUR 0.8 billion ( 31 December 2023: approximately EUR 1.1 billion). An external property valuation of a sub-portfolio was last performed on 30 June 2024.

The EPRA Vacancy Rate ${ }^{1}$ increased as at the reporting date of 30 September 2024 to $14.7 \%$, following $13.1 \%$ on 31 December 2023. The increase is mainly due to the additional vacancy of the commercial property in Darmstadt, as well as the space following the insolvency of Mein Real in Querfurt.

Results of operations, net assets and financial position

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

In the first nine months of 2024, the DEMIRE Group generated rental income totalling EUR 50.6 million (previous year: EUR 59.9 million). Rental income fell, mainly due to a smaller portfolio base following sales. This was offset by rent indexations. The result from the rental of real estate also fell, as a result of the real estate sales in previous quarters, by $20.6 \%$ to EUR 34.4 million (previous year: EUR 43.4 million).

The result from the sale of property in the first nine months of 2024 was EUR -5.2 million (previous year: EUR - 12.9 million), primarily due to the sale of LogPark in Leipzig. The result from fair value adjustments of investment properties amounted to EUR - 17.9 million (previous year: EUR - 59.7 million), largely due to a mid-year market-related devaluation of a sub-portfolio. The adjustment to the assets held for sale was EUR - 8.7 million (previous year: EUR - 25.3 million).

Impairments on financial and other receivables increased significantly and amounted to EUR 1.5 million in the first nine months of 2024 (previous year EUR 0.5 million). This is mainly due to write-offs of interest receivables from loans granted to the now deconsolidated LIMES companies.

General administrative expenses in the first nine months of 2024 increased to EUR 9.1 million (previous year: EUR 8.6 million). Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) were in the negative range at EUR - 13.8 million (previous year EUR -64.6 million), mainly due to the revaluation of a part of the property portfolio in the middle of the year.

The financial result includes a $-4.6 \%$ decline in financial expenses to EUR - 12.3 million (previous year: EUR - 12.9 million). Financial income fell by EUR 13.5 million compared to the same period of the previous year, when the repurchase of the bond below par made a substantial contribution, to EUR 6.4 million. The average nominal interest on borrowed capital was $1.89 \%$ p.a. (previous year: $1.74 \%$ p.a.). Minority interests in earnings increased to EUR 3.3 million (previous year: EUR 0.9 million), in particular due to the lower property devaluations and reduced the financial result by the same amount. Consequently, the financial result in the first nine months of 2024 amounted to EUR - 9.1 million, compared to EUR 7.1 million in the same period of the previous year.

Earnings before taxes (EBT) fell to EUR - 22.9 million in the reporting period, compared to EUR - 57.5 million in the previous year.

Current income taxes decreased to EUR 3.6 million (previous year: EUR 9.0 million). Last year, the bond buyback at below par resulted in higher expenses with a corresponding taxable gain.

The negative result of the valuation of a sub-portfolio led to a positive contribution from deferred taxes in the amount of EUR 4.8 million (previous year: EUR 16.9 million).

The profit for the first nine months of 2024 was EUR - 21.6 million, compared to EUR - 49.5 million in the same period of the previous year.

NET ASSETS

As at 30 September 2024, the total assets decreased by EUR 152.6 million to EUR 1,174.9 million compared to year-end 2023. This resulted primarily from property sales and the deconsolidation of the LIMES portfolio. The value of investment property as at 30 September 2024 was EUR 755.2 million, a decrease of EUR 192.0 million compared to 31 December 2023. The main driver of the reduction was the deconsolidation of the LIMES companies due to the insolvency applications and the reclassification of properties as assets held for sale.

Group equity as at 30 September 2024 totalled EUR 308.1 million, compared with EUR 333.3 million as at 31 December 2023. The main reason for the decline was the negative result for the period. The equity ratio came to 26.2\% (31 December 2023: $25.1 \%)$. It should be noted that non-controlling minority interests reported in the Group's borrowed capital of around EUR 73.0 million (31 December 2023: EUR 72.0 million) are carried as non-current liabilities and not as equity in accordance with IFRS, solely as a result of the legal form of Fair Value REIT's fund participations as partnerships. The corresponding adjusted Group equity totalled approximately EUR 381.1 million (31 December 2023: EUR 405.3 million).

Total liabilities as at 30 September 2024 amounted to EUR 866.8 million. These decreased by EUR 127.4 million compared to 31 December 2023. The main reasons for this were the deconsolidation of the LIMES companies, including their loans, and the repayment of the loan for LogPark Leipzig in connection with the sale of the property.

FINANCIAL POSITION

Cash flow from operating activities in the first nine months of 2024 amounted to EUR 28.5 million (previous year: EUR 40.1 million).

Cash flow from investing activities amounted to EUR 84.3 million in the reporting period, compared to EUR 67.8 million in the previous year. The difference compared to the previous period is mainly due to proceeds from the sale of properties.

Cash flow from financing activities came to EUR -68.3 million, compared to EUR -32.9 million in the same period of the previous year. The change was driven, on the one hand, by the repayment of liabilities and, on the other, by costs incurred in refinancing the 2019/24 bond.

Cash and cash equivalents amounted to EUR 164.5 million on 30 September 2024 (31 December 2023: EUR 132.3 million).

Opportunities and risks

For information on the opportunities and risks of future business performance, please refer to the disclosures made in the opportunities and risks report included within the $\bigcirc$ consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2023.

The 2019/2024 bond maturing in October 2024 is, at the time of publishing this report, in the final phase being extended to the end of 2027. As a result, risks arising from the bond and the extension have largely already been significantly reduced. A potential risk has been added due to the extension of financing of around EUR 35 million that expires on 30 November 2024, which has not yet been concluded, despite promising talks with the financing bank.

The opportunities and risks are reviewed continuously and in a structured process. From today's perspective, no risks that could endanger the Company have been identified.

Subsequent events and related party transactions

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

for the reporting period from 1 January to 30 September 2024

A. General information

1. Basis of preparation

DEMIRE Deutsche Mittelstand Real Estate AG (hereafter "DEMIRE AG") is recorded in the commercial register in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, the location of the Company's headquarters, under the number HRB 89041. The Company's registered office is located in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, and the Company's business address is Robert-Bosch-Straße 11, Langen, Germany.

The Company's shares are listed in the Prime Standard segment of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange.

The subject of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements as at 30 September 2024 is DEMIRE AG and its subsidiaries (hereafter "DEMIRE").

DEMIRE AG itself has not carried out any investments in real estate or real estate projects to date. Investments are generally processed through real estate companies. Interests in these property companies are held by DEMIRE AG either directly or indirectly (through intermediate holding companies). DEMIRE focuses on the German commercial real estate market, where it is an active investor and portfolio manager. DEMIRE itself carries out the acquisition, management and leasing of commercial properties. Value appreciation is to be achieved through active real estate management. This may also include the targeted sale of properties when they are no longer a strategic fit or have exhausted their potential for value appreciation.

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the period from 1 January to 30 September 2024 were prepared in accordance with the requirements of IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting (hereafter IAS 34). This report has not been audited or subjected to audit review, and for this reason does not contain an auditor's opinion.

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements of DEMIRE AG were prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) published by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), as adopted by the European Union (EU), applying Section 315e of the German Commercial Code (HGB). All International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), International Accounting Standards (IAS) and interpretations of the IFRS Interpretations Committee (IFRS IC) - formerly the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) and the Standing Interpretations Committee (SIC) - that were mandatory for the 2024 financial year have been taken into consideration. Furthermore, all disclosure and explanation requirements under German law above and beyond the provisions of the IASB have been fulfilled.

Under IAS 34, the condensed interim consolidated financial statements are intended to be an update of the most recent annual financial statements. They therefore do not contain all of the information and disclosures required for consolidated financial statements but rather concentrate on new activities, events and circumstances, so as not to repeat information that has already been reported. The condensed interim consolidated financial statements of DEMIRE AG as at 30 September 2024 should therefore be viewed in conjunction with the $\Theta$ consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2023.

The euro (EUR) is the reporting currency of DEMIRE AG's condensed interim consolidated financial statements. Unless otherwise stated, all amounts are expressed in thousands of euros (EUR thousand). For computational reasons, rounding differences of $\pm$ one unit (EUR, \%, etc.) may occur in the information presented in these financial statements. The consolidated statement of income has been prepared according to the cost-of-sales method.

Adjustment of the previous year's figures

In the consolidated statement of income, the item "Impairment of trade receivables" has been incorporated into "Profit/loss from the rental of real estate" and "Impairment of financial and other receivables" has been incorporated into "Earnings before interest and taxes".

The previous year's presentation of the item "General administrative expenses" in the statement of income has been reduced by legal and consultancy fees in the amount of EUR 331 thousand (9M 2024: EUR 292 thousand) and by general administrative expenses associated with consultancy services in the area of asset management in the amount of EUR 571 thousand (9M 2024: EUR 578 thousand), as these are now presented under the item "Operating expenses to generate rental income".

In addition, the previous year's "Impairment of trade receivables" item has been reduced by EUR 1,077 thousand (9M 2024: EUR 1,725 thousand). The previous year's "Impairment of financial and other receivables" item only includes impairments for loans in the amount of EUR 527 thousand (9M 2024: EUR 1,528 thousand). Impairment of trade accounts receivable is now recognised as part of the result from the rental of real estate.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements of DEMIRE AG were approved for publication by a resolution of the Executive Board on 6 November 2024.

B. Scope and principles of consolidation

In the reporting period 2024, there was a change in the scope of consolidation.

The Executive Board and the management of the Limes subsidiaries were in very promising negotiations for a long time regarding the extension of the loan agreement between the four Limes subsidiaries (DEMIRE Aschheim Max-Planckstraße GmbH, DEMIRE Essen Hatzper Str. Theodor-Althoff-Str. GmbH, DEMIRE Kassel

Kölnische Str. Mauerstr. Spohrstr. GmbH and DEMIRE Köln Max-Glomsda-Straße 4 GmbH ) and DZ HYP AG for an outstanding loan amount of approximately EUR 83 million, which expired on 30 June 2024. However, the offers that had been exchanged in the past could not be accepted due to the outcome of the negotiations with the bondholders, resulting in the insolvency of the Limes subsidiaries at the end of 30 June 2024. After further unsuccessful negotiations, the management was forced to file for insolvency for these four companies on 22 July 2024. Since then, these companies have been under their own management. As a result, these companies are no longer controlled in accordance with IAS 10.21 and were deconsolidated in the third quarter of 2024. This resulted in a deconsolidation loss of EUR 6,137 thousand which was recorded under other operating expenses. The remaining investments in the amount of EUR 9,128 thousand in the four subsidiaries and the loans granted to them were remeasured at fair value in the amount of EUR 53,431 thousand.

In addition, DEMIRE GP 15 S.å r.l. was founded on 25 September 2024 and was added to the scope of consolidation.

C. Accounting policies

The accounting policies applied to these interim consolidated financial statements are the same as those applied to the consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2023. There were no material changes in estimates compared to those in the $\bigcirc$ consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2023.

The first-time application of amendments to IAS 1 and 7, IFRS 7 and 16 have no effect on the consolidated financial statements of DEMIRE.

described above. Non-allocable operating expenses of EUR -7,576 thousand (9M 2023: EUR - 8,187 thousand) declined compared to the previous period despite higher maintenance expenses of EUR - 3,885 thousand (9M 2023: EUR - 3,619 thousand), in particular due to the disposal of real estate as described above.

Of the operating expenses, an amount of EUR -20,848 thousand (9M 2023: EUR - 25,236 thousand) is generally allocable and can be charged to tenants. The decline is due in particular to the disposal of properties sold in the previous period. The decrease in non-allocable expenses is also shown in the decrease in income from the allocation of utility and service charges.

Impairments on receivables amounted to EUR - 1,726 thousand in the reporting period (9M 2023: EUR - 1,077 thousand). The higher impairments in the reporting period resulted from impairments on receivables from various tenants. A large proportion of the impairments in the reporting period in the amount of EUR 346 thousand relate to the tenant Galeria Karstadt Kaufhof, which was again subject to insolvency proceedings. On top of this, impairment losses of around EUR - 236 thousand are attributable to two tenants in Rostock who are also subject to insolvency proceedings. The remaining impairments on receivables in the amount of EUR - 1,144 thousand are distributed among different tenants in DEMIRE's entire property portfolio and predominantly result from the flat-rate individual value adjustments made on the basis of the age structure of the receivables.

At EUR 34,412 thousand (9M 2023: EUR 43,364 thousand), the result from the rental of real estate was lower year-on-year, due in particular to the disposal of the properties sold in Ulm, Apolda and Bad Oeynhausen in the previous period and the disposal of the Leipzig LogPark property at Am alten Flughafen sold in the first quarter of the current financial year due to an increased vacancy rate (particularly in the properties in Celle, Bergstraße and Querfurt) and the deconsolidation of the Limes portfolio (consisting of the properties in Essen, Theodor-Althoff-Str. 39-47, Kassel, Kölnische Str. 6/Mauerstr. 11/Spohrstr. 2/4, Cologne, Max-Glomsda-Str. 4 and Aschheim, Max-Planck-Str. 3). Rental income decreased by EUR 9,248 thousand to EUR 50,637 thousand (9M 2023: EUR 59,885 thousand) due to the effects

Impairments of receivables in the previous period resulted mainly from the former tenant HC Bowling in Stralsund in the amount of EUR 244 thousand, which is currently subject to insolvency proceedings. The remaining impairments on receivables in the amount of EUR - 833 thousand are distributed among different tenants in DEMIRE's entire property portfolio and result from the flat-rate individual value adjustments made on the basis of the age structure of the receivables.

Significant components of the financial income result from the granting of loans to the joint venture JV Theodor-Heuss-Allee GmbH in the amount of EUR 792 thousand (9M 2023: EUR 782 thousand) and its shareholder RFR 5 Immobilien GmbH in the amount of EUR 2,306 thousand (9M 2023: EUR 2,417 thousand) as well as interest from fixed-term deposits totalling EUR 2,768 thousand (9M 2023: EUR 923 thousand) and profit from the buyback of the corporate bond at a price below the nominal value in the amount of EUR 62 thousand (9M 2023: EUR 15,683 thousand).

Financial expenses recorded a year-on-year decrease of EUR 588 thousand, due primarily to the early repayment of a loan in the course of the disposal of the logistics park in Leipzig.

Minority interests totalling EUR -3,225 (9M 2023: EUR -882 thousand) relate to the share of profits of minority shareholders in Fair Value REIT-AG's subsidiaries, which are recognised as liabilities in accordance with IAS 32. The year-on-year decline in minority interests is primarily the result of pro rata valuation losses on the properties in the first half of 2023.

The additional cap

The reclassification of properties held for sale relates to several properties for which it is assumed (in accordance with IFRS 5) that a sale will be completed within one year.

The decrease of EUR 67,275 thousand in the item "Properties held for sale" is primarily due to the disposal of logistics park Leipzig.

2. Equity

Subscribed capital amounted to EUR 107,777 thousand (31 December 2023: EUR 107,777 thousand). This was EUR 105,513 thousand after the deduction of treasury shares ( 31 December 2023: EUR 105,513 thousand).

3. Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities consisted of the following:

3. Risk report

Please refer to the disclosures made in the opportunities and risks report included within the $\bigcirc$ consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2023 for information on the opportunities and risks of future business performance.

The 2019/2024 bond maturing in October 2024 is, at the time of publishing this report, in the final phase being extended to the end of 2027. As a result, risks arising from the bond and the extension have largely already been significantly reduced. A potential risk has been added due to the extension of financing of around EUR 35 million that expires on 30 November 2024, which has not yet been concluded, despite promising talks with the financing bank.

The opportunities and risks are reviewed continuously and in a structured process. From today's perspective, no risks that could endanger the Company have been identified.

For a general overview of the risks, please refer to the $\square$ report on risks and opportunities.

4. Further explanations

As at the reporting date, there were no financial obligations stemming from purchase agreements for properties and real estate companies which are not yet due.

Contractual obligations for modification and expansion measures as well as maintenance and modernisation obligations for the properties totalled EUR 14,394 thousand as at 30 September 2024 (9M 2023: EUR 135,305 thousand). These obligations are fixed in terms of their scope. The significant decline results from the deconsolidation of the Limes portfolio, and in this case in particular from the elimination of the contractual obligations for the property in Essen.

Purchase order commitments for maintenance and modernisation, as well as modification and expansion measures, totalled EUR 4,974 thousand as at the interim reporting date (9M 2023: EUR 9,182 thousand).

As at 30 September 2024, unused credit lines in the amount of EUR 2,500 thousand (31 December 2023: EUR 6,000 thousand) were available.

In accordance with DEMIRE AG's Articles of Association, the Executive Board is responsible for managing business activities.

Prof. Dr Alexander Goepfert (CEO from 1 January 2023 to 3 April 2024)

6. Events after the interim reporting date of 30 September 2024

As part of a comprehensive transaction, DEMIRE is extending its 2019/2024 bond to the end of 2027 with revised conditions. On 22 October 2024, 10\% (EUR 49.9 million) of the current outstanding total nominal amount of EUR 499 million was redeemed at par. Subsequently, as part of a tender offer, bonds with an outstanding total nominal amount of EUR 4.59 million were repurchased and cancelled below par at $61 \%$.

Since 25 October 2024, bonds promised as part of a backstop agreement with individual bondholders have been repurchased and cancelled below par at $76.25 \%$. It is expected that the settlement will be finalised in the next few days after publication of this report and that the new bond terms and conditions will then come into force. The total nominal amount of the extended bond is expected to be between EUR 252 million and EUR 254 million.

For the bond buyback, the Company is using its available liquidity. In addition, the Company's largest shareholder has agreed to grant DEMIRE a shareholder loan of up to EUR 100 million to support this. The majority of the shareholder loan is expected to be utilised.

As part of the refinancing of the 19/24 corporate bond, an ownership structure was determined that made it necessary to found a series of Luxembourg companies to hold significant portions of the DEMIRE portfolio as interim holdings. After the reporting date, the following companies were founded: DEMIRE GP 16 S.à r.l, DEMIRE GP 17 S.à r.l., DEMIRE GP 18 S.à r.l., DEMIRE GP 19 S.à r.l., DEMIRE GP 20 S.à r.l., DEMIRE Holding 15 SCSp, DEMIRE Holding 16 SCSp, DEMIRE Holding 17 SCSp, DEMIRE Holding 18 SCSp, DEMIRE Holding 19 SCSp and DEMIRE Holding 20 SCSp. The shares held by these Luxembourg holding companies were pledged to the bondholders.
