Ad hoc notification

Disclosed inside information pursuant to article 17 Market Abuse Regulation (MAR)

The Management Board of S IMMO AG has resolved today to start a share repurchase programme under sec 65 para 1 fig 8 of the Austrian Stock Corporations Act (AktG). The volume totals up to 669,171 shares (1% of the

current share capital). At present, the company holds 190,003 own shares (roughly 0.28% of the current share capital). The repurchase programme will begin on 04 October 2016 and will end on 09 December 2016.

The purchase price must not be more than 5% higher than the average quoted price on the Vienna Stock Exchange over the three trading days preceding the relevant repurchase and must not exceed EUR 10.30 (thus the maximum pecuniary amount allocated to this programme being roughly EUR 6.9m). The share repurchase will be carried out via the Vienna Stock Exchange/XETRA for any purpose permitted under sec 65 para 1 fig 8 of the Austrian Stock Corporations Act (AktG).

The repurchase is lead-managed by a credit institution. The credit institution is obliged to make its trading decisions concerning the timing of the repurchase of the issuer’s shares independently of the company and has to follow the conditions for trading as defined in article 3 of the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1052 of 08 March 2016.
