Manz AG: Successful completion of the capital increase with subscription
rights

Reutlingen, 20 May 2016 - Manz AG, Reutlingen, (ISIN: DE000A0JQ5U3) today
successfully completed the capital increase from authorized capital with
the inclusion of the shareholders' subscription rights, which had been
resolved on 20 April 2016 by the executive board with the consent of the
supervisory board. The share capital of Manz AG thus will be increased,
with reservation for the recording of the implementation of the capital
increase in the commercial register which is expected on 23 May 2016, from
5,420,864 euros by 2,323,224 euros to 7,744,088 euros against cash
contributions. Of the 2,323,224 new shares, 1,523,480 new shares were
subscribed or took over at the subscription price of 34.74 euros of each
new share by Shanghai Electric Germany Holding GmbH, a German subsidiary of
Shanghai Electric Group Co., Ltd. (Shanghai/PR China). By other investors,
subscription rights were exercised for in total 799,744 new shares.

From the capital increase, net issue proceeds for the company amount to
around 75.6 million euros, and shall serve for the repayment of company
loans from German lenders, the covering of costs with cash-flow impact in
the framework of the restructuring in fiscal year 2016, a possibly
necessary repayment of a project loan, the financing of research and
development costs and working capital as well as general corporate purposes
of the Manz Group.

The new shares with full entitlement to dividends as of 1 January 2015 are
expected to be included on 24 May 2016 in the existing listing in the sub-
segment of the regulated market with additional post-admission obligations
(prime standard) of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange.

Bankhaus Lampe is acting as global coordinator and financial advisor in the
capital increase.
