The company's share capital will be increased by the issue of 2,969,000 new no-par value registered shares from so far Euro 29,700,000 by Euro 2,969,000 to Euro 32,669,000 in the future. The new shares are entitled to dividends as from 1 January 2011. The 2,969,000 new shares will be offered to institutional investors by way of an accelerated bookbuilding process. Shareholders' subscription rights are therefor excluded. The transaction is accompanied by Deutsche Bank AG as sole bookrunner and HSBC as co-lead manager. The placement price will be set and announced, presumably on 1 July 2011, following the completion of the accelerated bookbuilding. The admission of the new shares without a prospectus to the regulated market (regulierter Markt) on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (Prime Standard) and the Munich Stock Exchange is expected on 1 July 2011 as well. It is scheduled that they will be included in the existing listing for the company's shares on 5 July 2011. Leoni AG intends to use the proceeds of the issue to finance the strong organic growth of the Group as well as the acquisition of the remaining 50 per cent stake in the Korean wiring systems producer Daekyeung.
