Ad-hoc press release pursuant to Section 15 of
the German Securities Trading Act (WpHG)
PATRIZIA Immobilien AG acquires premium portfolio: more than 6,000
residential units around Germany
Augsburg, November 29, 2006. After several rounds of bidding, PATRIZIA
Immobilien AG (ISIN DE000PAT1AG3) has been given the go-ahead to purchase a
premium portfolio comprising a total of 6,805 residential and commercial
units (the majority are residential). The portfolio is being sold by MEAG
MUNICH ERGO Asset Management GmbH, which represents a number of Munich Re
Group companies. The parties to the transaction agreed not to disclose the
purchase price.
The individual objects add up to nearly 500,000 m² of net residential and
commercial space and are all situated at premium locations in western
German conurbations. Property experts rate this as one of the most
attractive residential portfolios currently on the German market. Its
excellent quality is demonstrated both by the sound structural condition of
the objects and by their low vacancy rate.
PATRIZIA’s ability to handle every aspect of the real estate value chain
clinched the deal and gave the company access to this very high-quality
portfolio. In recent years, the company has repeatedly proven its expertise
in the socially compatible resale of residential property after acquiring
sizeable portfolios.
Proceeds from the company’s IPO in March 2006 will be used to fund this,
the largest single transaction in PATRIZIA’s history to date. The sheer
volume of the transaction underscores the further growth of the company.
