Press Release

Majority shareholder of PREOS brings "digital twin" of PREOS share onto the Blockchain

- First tokenisation of shares of a listed company worldwide

- Public offer based on securities prospectus as of 24 November 2020

- Subscription starting from one token possible - signal effect for financial centre Germany

- Thomas Olek, founder of PREOS AG and CEO of majority shareholder publity AG: "A milestone in the international real estate industry. We make real estate digital and investable for everyone, no matter the location or infrastructure".

 

Frankfurt/Main (24.11.2020) - The real estate investor PREOS Global Office Real Estate & Technology AG (PREOS) is the world's first listed company whose shares are digitally securitised by a Blockchain-based "digital twin" (token). This is the largest tokenisation project in the real estate industry worldwide. The tokens will be issued by the PREOS parent company publity AG by way of a public offering in Germany and Austria on the basis of a securities prospectus approved by the German Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin) on 23 November 2020. They will also be issued by way of an international private placement. The offer includes 50 million PREOS tokens. For this purpose, in a first step, publity AG has already tokenised PREOS shares with a market value of around EUR 230 million, which corresponds to a total of 25 million tokens. The medium to long-term goal is a total token volume of EUR 1 billion.

Investors will be able to invest in the PREOS - Token as of 24 November 2020, irrespective of their location and entirely digitally. The initial issue price per PREOS token is EUR 09.25 (XETRA closing price of the PREOS share on 23 November 2020). The PREOS token is based on the Ethereum Blockchain and guarantees essential shareholder rights. Each PREOS token corresponds to one PREOS share. The token holder has a digitally deposited non-cash asset on the Blockchain and can exchange his token for a conventional PREOS share at any time. The tokenised shares, which provide the same dividend and voting rights at the Shareholders' Meeting of PREOS as all other PREOS shares, are held in custody by a collateral trustee.

The PREOS token can be subscribed online at www.preos-token.de. The securities prospectus applicable to the public offering was published on 24 November 2020 on publity AG's website (www.publity.de) in the "Investor Relations" section. In this context, the information listed below under "Disclaimer" must be observed.

Olek: "We are opening a new chapter on the capital market."

The PREOS shares required for the transaction originate from the stake of the Frankfurt-based publity AG, which currently holds around 86 percent of the PREOS shares. From an economic point of view, the sale of the tokens backed by PREOS shares is thus similar to a public re-placement of PREOS shares by publity AG. Thomas Olek, founder of PREOS AG: "We are opening a new chapter with this tokenisation on the capital market and in the real estate sector alike. The real estate industry and the financial markets must and will become even more digital - PREOS and publity are pioneers in this respect and are taking investors on this exciting journey. We thus make real estate digitally and globally investable. We are targeting a volume of EUR 1 billion for the PREOS token in the medium to long term".

By issuing the PREOS token on the Ethereum Blockchain, publity AG intends to emphasise its technological pioneering role and broaden the PREOS shareholder base by addressing new investor groups, says Nils von Schoenaich-Carolath, Director Treasury & Digital Assets of publity AG and project manager for the PREOS token. "With the issuance of a digital twin of the PREOS share, we have in several aspects broken new ground. Not only are we the first company to issue a digital twin of a listed share by way of a public offering. The offer is also based on an innovative trustee system, granting extensive rights to the token holders. We believe that the PREOS token will be an important step in the further expansion of the Blockchain technology in the capital market context".

Comprehensive money laundering concept presented

The money laundering concept developed in collaboration with the Frankfurt securities trading bank Bankhaus Scheich and submitted to the BaFin in conjunction with the creation of the PREOS token platform sets new standards. This concept ensures that the token can only be traded by investors who have gone through a comprehensive identification process carried out by Bankhaus Scheich. With the tokenised trustee structure new legal territory on the product side was entered. Concurrently, the structure had to be coordinated with several regulatory partners in parallel in order to implement the PREOS platform. The project was legally accompanied by the cooperation of Raschke von Knobelsdorff Heiser (RKH) and Schnittker Möllmann Partners (SMP). The technical service provider is micobo, which designed the PREOS platform for the PREOS tokens.
