20.09.2016


Vienna/Frankfurt, 20.09.2016: C-QUADRAT Investment AG (ISIN: AT0000613005)
announces that it has been informed of the following facts:
 
On 15.01.2016 Cubic (London) Limited ("Cubic") which is owned in equal parts by
San Gabriel Privatstiftung and T.R. Privatstiftung announced (i) that it had
entered into a conditional share purchase agreement regarding a total of
1.095.162 non-par value bearer shares of C-QUADRAT Investment AG ("C-QUADRAT" or
"Target Company"), corresponding to 25,1% of the Target Company's issued share
capital and (ii) its intention to launch an anticipated mandatory takeover offer
("MTO") pursuant to Sec 22 et seq ÜbG (Transaction I). The acquisition of the
respective shares and the MTO have been subject to the regulatory approvals by
competent authorities. Approval was obtained in June 2016.

On 10.03.2016 Cubic entered into additional share purchase agreements with
C-QUADRAT's core shareholders regarding a total of 2.856.344 non-par value
bearer shares (65,46%) of C-QUADRAT (Transaction II). All agreements have been
subject to the regulatory approvals by competent authorities. With effectiveness
of these agreements Cubic would have held more than 90% in the Target Company
and would have intended to launch a squeeze out proceeding following the MTO.

Cubic and C-QUADRAT's core shareholders decided not to proceed with Transaction
II. Only Transaction I will be completed. For the time being, a subsequent
squeeze out proceeding in C-QUADRAT will not be initiated because the legal
requirements have not been fulfilled.

The MTO can still be accepted until and including 12.10.2016. The offer price
remains unchanged at EUR 60 per C-QUADRAT share.

The offer document includes the precise terms and periods regarding the
acceptance of the anticipated mandatory offer and is available online on the
websites of the Target Company (www.c-quadrat.com) and the Austrian Takeover
Commission (www.takeover.at).

Vienna/Frankfurt, 22.06.2016: Today, Cubic (London) Limited ("Cubic" or
"Bidder") which is owned in equal parts by San Gabriel Privatstiftung and T.R.
Privatstiftung informed C-QUADRAT Investment AG as follows: 
 
On 05.04.2016 Cubic launched an anticipated mandatory take-over offer pursuant
to Sec 22 et seq ÜbG to acquire shares of C-QUADRAT Investment AG ("MTO"). The
MTO was subject to the regulatory approval of Transaction I (closing of Talanx
Share Purchase Agreement and the MTO) by competent regulatory authorities.

On 22.06.2016 the Austrian Financial Market Authority informed the Bidder that
Transaction I (closing of Talanx Share Purchase Agreement and the MTO) was
approved. In addition, by that date all other competent regulatory authorities
had confirmed approval of the consummation of the MTO. Thus the condition
precedent pursuant to section 5 of the MTO memorandum is herewith fulfilled. The
MTO is no longer subject to any condition precedent.

It can be expected that on 28 June 2016 the offer price corresponding to EUR
60,00 per share will be paid by UniCredit Bank Austria as receiving and payment
Agent - simultaneously (Zug um Zug) against the transfer of shares - to those
shareholders who tendered their shares and thus accepted the offer under the MTO
within the acceptance period, ie by 14 June 2016.

EANS-Adhoc: C-QUADRAT Investment AG / Cubic (London) Limited announces
anticipated mandatory offer for all outstanding shares in C-QUADRAT Investment
AG (ISIN: AT0000613005)

Mergers - Acquisitions - Takeovers
15.01.2016


Vienna/Frankfurt, 15.01.2016: Today, C-QUADRAT Investment AG (ISIN:
AT0000613005) announces that it has been informed of the following facts:

Cubic (London) Limited ("Bidder" or "Cubic") which is owned in equal parts by
San Gabriel Privatstiftung, currently holding approximately 15,68% in C-QUADRAT
Investment AG, and T.R. Privatstiftung, currently holding approximately 19,58%
in C-QUADRAT Investment AG, has entered into a conditional share purchase
agreement with Talanx Asset Management GmbH regarding a total of 1.095.162
non-par value bearer shares of C-QUADRAT Investment AG ("C-QUADRAT" or "Target
Company"), corresponding to 25,1% of the Target Company's issued share capital.
The purchase price per share amounts to EUR 42. The share purchase agreement is
subject to the regulatory approvals by competent authorities in Germany, UK and
Austria.

With effectiveness of the share purchase agreement the Bidder together with both
private trusts will hold more than 50% in the Target Company thus being obliged
to launch a mandatory takeover offer to all other shareholders pursuant to
sections 22 et seq. Austrian Takeover Act. Cubic intends to fulfill this
obligation by way of launching an anticipated mandatory offer to acquire all
C-QUADRAT shares that are not held by the bidder, parties acting in concert,
C-QUADRAT or shareholders with whom the Bidder entered into no tender
commitments. Thus, this anticipated mandatory offer will refer to approximately
411.000 C-QUADRAT shares, corresponding to approximately 9,44% of the Target
Company's issued share capital. The offer price will correspond to statutory
requirements and is expected to be EUR 42.86 per C-QUADRAT share. The
anticipated mandatory offer will be subject to the regulatory approvals by
competent authorities in Germany, UK and Austria.

The Bidder plans to release the offer document in accordance with statutory
requirements, however, given the complexity of regulatory approval procedures in
several jurisdictions intends to file an application to the Austrian Takeover
Commission to extend the time period for notification of the offer document. The
offer document will include the precise terms and periods regarding the
acceptance of the anticipated mandatory offer and will be available online on
the websites of the Target Company (www.c-quadrat.com) and the Austrian takeover
commission (www.takeover.at).

The Bidder expressly points out that its announcement is for information
purposes only and neither constitutes an invitation to sell, nor an offer to
purchase, C-QUADRAT shares. The final terms and further provisions regarding the
anticipated mandatory takeover offer will be disclosed in the offer document
once it will have been approved by the Austrian Takeover Commission
(Übernahmekommission). Investors and holders of C-QUADRAT securities are
strongly recommended to read the offer document and all announcements in
connection with the public takeover offer as they contain or will contain
important in-formation. 

The Bidder expressly points out that the offer will be made exclusively under
the laws of Austria, especially under the Austrian Takeover Act. The offer will
not be executed according to the provisions of jurisdictions other than those of
Austria. Thus, no other announcements, registrations, admissions or approvals of
the offer outside of Austria have been filed, arranged for or granted. Holders
of C-QUADRAT shares cannot rely on having recourse to provisions for the
protection of investors in any jurisdiction other than such provisions of
Austria.

Finally, the Bidder expressly points out that to the extent permissible under
applicable law or regulation, and in accordance with Austrian market practice,
the Bidder may purchase, or conclude agreements to purchase, C-QUADRAT shares,
directly or indirectly, outside of the scope of the public takeover offer,
before, during or after the acceptance or any additional acceptance period.
These purchases may be completed via the stock exchange at market prices or
outside the stock exchange at negotiated conditions. Any information on such
purchases will be immediately disclosed as required by law or regulation in
Austria.
