FURTHER LIMITATIONS APPLY. PLEASE NOTE THE IMPORTANT INFORMATION AT THE END OF THIS PUBLICATION. Voltabox AG IPO: Announcement of the Allocation Rules for the Offer to Private Investors Delbrück, October 11, 2017 - As part of Voltabox AG's IPO, 6.325 million shares (including 0.825 million shares as part of an overallotment and 0.5 million shares from the sale by the parent company paragon AG) of Voltabox AG were placed with investors. The shares of Voltabox AG are to be listed on the regulated market of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (Prime Standard) under the symbol VBX, the ISIN DE000A2E4LE9 and the WKN A2E4LE on October 13, 2017. At the issue price of EUR 24.00, the IPO of Voltabox AG was approximately ten times covered. Due to the oversubscription of the offer, not all purchase offers by private investors could be accounted for in the allocation. Private investors were allocated approximately 10.2 % of the placement volume, which totaled 6.325 million shares. The subscription offers submitted via the XETRA subscription functionality of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (the "Subscription Functionality") were served according to the following allocation key: Only those subscription offers submitted at the final offer price of EUR 24.00 per share were serviced. Subscription orders for less than 5 shares were not serviced, while subscription orders for 5 to 50 shares were serviced with 5 shares each (minimum allocation). Subscription orders for more than 50 shares were allocated 10 % of the respective subscription volume, using commercial rounding and capped at a maximum allocation of 400 shares per subscription order. Investors will receive a separate securities statement from their custodian bank when the shares are allotted; investors will also receive further information from the custodian bank on the shares allotted to them. The "Principles for the Allocation of Share Issues to Private Investors" issued by the Stock Exchange Expert Commission of the Federal Ministry of Finance on June 7, 2000, were observed and the allocation for subscription offers received via the Subscription Functionality was carried out according to uniform criteria. There was no preferential allocation to members of the executive bodies of Voltabox AG nor to their relatives, nor to the employees or business partners of Voltabox AG. In addition to the placement of 5.0 million new shares from an ordinary capital increase and 0.5 million shares from paragon AG's portfolio, the joint bookrunners have made full use of their right to make overallotments of up to 0.825 million additional shares held by paragon AG via a securities loan. If the "greenshoe option" is exercised by the joint bookrunners, the securities loan is to be covered by shares from a capital increase from authorized capital that is yet to be exercised.
