SYSTAIC successfully completes placement of cash capital increase

• Issuing volume of more than EUR 14.7 million
• Capital increase was oversubscribed: all shares were taken or successfully placed in a rump placement
• Trading in new shares scheduled to begin on 30 June 2009

systaic AG, Düsseldorf, has successfully completed its cash capital increase with subscription rights in the amount of 2,900,381 ordinary bearer shares. The implementation of the capital increase is expected to be registered with the commercial register on 25 June 2009. With a subscription price of EUR 5.00 per share and a placement price of EUR 5.10 per share for shares not subscribed by existing shareholders, gross proceeds amount to more than EUR 14.7.

The funds raised by the capital increase will enable the company to adapt its credit lines to the growing business volume, amongst other things. Michael Pack, Chairman of the Executive Board: “More than half of the subscription rights were exercised by existing shareholders. We are pleased about the extent to which existing shareholders exercised their subscription rights and the fact that the rump placement was oversubscribed. It quite strikingly demonstrates that the stock market has great confidence in our business model with its highly up-to-date strategic concept.”

The newly issued shares carry full dividend rights as from 1 January 2009. The new shares are expected to be included in the existing listing on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange and trade under the international identification number ISIN DE000A0JKYP6 as from 30 June 2009. The capital increase was accompanied by Silvia Quandt & Cie. AG as lead manager.

“We wish to thank all shareholders who have exercised their subscription rights for the trust they have placed in the company. We also wish to thank all new shareholders for investing in the future of systaic AG. Given the tense situation in the financial market, being able to successfully conclude a cash capital increase of almost EUR 15 million demonstrates the exceptional level of trust placed in our company. In terms of volume, systaic AG's capital increase is among the ten largest on the regulated market performed for the purpose of business expansion this year,” Pack concludes.
