Disclaimer – Legal Notices

This website is intended by Obotritia Capital KGaA (the “Bidder”) for the publication of documents and information in connection with its mandatory offer (the “Offer”) under the German Securities Acquisition and Takeover Act (Wertpapiererwerbs- und Übernahmegesetz, “WpÜG”) for the acquisition of all shares in Readcrest Capital AG (the “Target Company”) not directly held by the Bidder. In order to be forwarded to these documents and information, visitors to this website are asked to take note of the following legal notices and to confirm this at the end of these notices.

Announcements on this website constitute neither an offer to purchase nor a solicitation of an offer to sell shares in the Target Company. The terms of the Offer and further provisions relating to the Offer are set out in the offer document. Shareholders of the Target Company are strongly advised to read the offer document and all other documents in connection with the mandatory offer.

The Offer is made exclusively under the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany (“Germany”), in particular under the WpÜG and the Regulation on the Content of the Offer Document, the Consideration for Takeover Offers and Mandatory Offers and the Exemption from the Obligation to Publish and to Make an Offer (“WpÜG-AV”). Any contract concluded with the Bidder as a result of the acceptance of the Offer is governed exclusively by German law and is to be interpreted exclusively in accordance with this law.

The Bidder does not carry out a public offer under any law other than that of Germany (in particular that of the USA) with the Offer. The publication of the offer document was permitted exclusively by the German Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (Bundesanstalt für Finanzdienstleistungsaufsicht, “BaFin”). Consequently, no announcements, registrations, admissions or approvals of the offer document and/or the Offer outside Germany have been applied for, arranged or granted. Shareholders of the Target Company can therefore not rely on provisions for the protection of investors under legal systems other than that of Germany.

Outside Germany, the European Union and the European Economic Area, neither the Bidder nor persons acting jointly with it within the meaning of Section 2 (5) WpÜG nor their subsidiaries will conduct or otherwise arrange the public marketing of the Offer. The publication, dispatch, distribution or dissemination of the offer document or other documents in connection with the Offer outside Germany, the European Union and the European Economic Area may in principle also result in the application of legal provisions of legal systems other than those of Germany, the European Union and the European Economic Area. The publication, dispatch, distribution and dissemination of the offer document may be subject to legal restrictions in these other legal systems. The offer document and other documents in connection with the Offer may therefore not be published, transmitted, distributed or disseminated by third parties in other legal systems if and to the extent that such transmission, publication, distribution or dissemination would violate applicable legal provisions or depends on compliance with official procedures, the granting of an approval or the fulfilment of further conditions, and these have not been observed or granted or are not met.

The Bidder has not permitted the publication, transmission, distribution or dissemination of the offer document or other documents in connection with the Offer by third parties outside Germany, the European Union and the European Economic Area.

Neither the Bidder nor the persons acting jointly with the Bidder within the meaning of Section 2 (5) WpÜG nor their subsidiaries assume responsibility for the compatibility of a publication, transmission, distribution or dissemination of this offer document outside Germany, the European Union and the European Economic Area with the legal provisions applicable there.
