DEMIRE Annual General Meeting 2018 - High degree of approval for all agenda items
  • All agenda items resolved with a large majority
  • Prof. Hermann Anton Wagner retires from Supervisory Board
  • Prof. Alexander Goepfert elected as new Chairman of the Supervisory Board
     
Langen, 27 June 2018 - The Annual General Meeting of DEMIRE Deutsche Mittelstand Real Estate AG [German Securities Code Number (WKN) A0XFSF/ISIN DE000A0XFSF0] today approved all of the proposed agenda items with a large majority. With 81.3 percent of the share capital represented, this year's Annual General Meeting ended after approximately three hours at 2:15 p.m. Prof. Alexander Goepfert, an internally recognised expert for real estate transactions, was newly elected to the Supervisory Board and was elected by the members of the Supervisory Board as Chairman of the Supervisory Board as successor to Prof. Hermann Anton Wagner. Prof. Hermann Anton Wagner is retiring from the Supervisory Board and terminating his mandate as at the end of the 2018 Annual General Meeting. He joined the board in April 2013. In light of the conversion of convertible bonds up until the day of the Annual General Meeting, the share capital increased to EUR 73,064,838. At the request of the Wecken & Cie., agenda items 6, 7, 8 and 10 of the Annual General Meeting were therefore amended. The Executive Board and the Supervisory Board of DEMIRE welcomed this proposal and supported it. The counterproposal was adopted by the shareholders present. The creation of new authorised and contingent capital based on the higher share capital will allow DEMIRE to raise new capital rapidly and flexibly if necessary to finance its planned growth.

Ralf Kind CEO and CFO of DEMIRE commented: "On behalf of DEMIRE, I would like to thank Prof. Hermann Anton Wagner for his many years of support and his successful involvement in the company's first growth phase in the German commercial real estate sector and in the implementation of the DEMIRE 2.0 strategy so far. At the same time, I am looking forward to the future collaboration with Prof. Dr. Alexander Goepfert, one of the most distinguished advisers in the German real estate industry."
