Martinsried/Munich, 21 August 2013. Medigene AG (MDG, Frankfurt, Prime Standard)
announces that the 4:1 share capital reduction approved at the annual general
meeting on 16 July 2013 will be executed as planned following its recent entry
into the Commercial Register. Using a consolidation ratio of 4:1 the number of
shares issued decreases from 39,488,556 to 9,872,139. The conversion of the
shares in the share deposit accounts will take place automatically with a value
date of 3 September 2013. This measure has no impact on the individual
shareholders' percentage share in Medigene AG. Starting 3 September 2013, the
converted Medigene shares will be traded with the new security identification
number WKN A1X 3W0 (ISIN: DE000A1X3W00).
By consolidation of the shares, Medigene's share capital is reduced by
EUR 29,616,417.00 to EUR 9,872,139.00 for 9,872,139 shares outstanding. The
difference of EUR 29,616,417.00 will be transferred from subscribed capital to
capital reserves on the liabilities and shareholders' equity side, leaving the
sum of shareholders' equity and the balance sheet of Medigene AG unchanged.
For those shareholders whose share participation cannot be divided by 4 at
closing on the reference date 2 September 2013, individual shareholders will be
offered the opportunity to buy or sell 0.25 to 0.75 portions of Medigene shares
to achieve a whole share. Shareholders will receive a letter to this effect from
their depository bank after 3 September, 2013. If a shareholder does not give
any instruction to the depository bank for this adjustment the fractional
portion of shares will be sold and the proceeds will be credited to the
shareholder's account.
