Marketing/Company Information

Subtitle: Purchase of land totalling 3,800 m² / 214 student
apartments with around 5,400 m² residential space planned /
Investment volume of around EUR 18.3 million

Frankfurt am Main (euro adhoc) - July 3, 2012 - With the Reutlingen
acquisition, YOUNIQ AG is expanding its portfolio to include a
further attractive and up-and-coming university location. The company
has acquired a 3,800 m² plot of land in the Gustav-Wagner-Strasse, to
the north of the city's centre. A total of 214 high-quality student
apartments with a total residential space of around 5,400 m² are to
be created from November 2012 prospectively. The investment volume
amounts to approximately EUR 18.3 million. The first returns from
this project will become effective before the end of the 2012
financial year. YOUNIQ AG anticipates that the building will be
completed and subsequently rented in March 2014 assuming that
construction commences and progresses in line with schedule.

Rainer Nonnengässer, CEO of YOUNIQ AG, commented as follows on this
new acquisition: "Due to local market circumstances, Reutlingen
comprises one of Germany's alternative university locations, that is
also still attractive for us. For example, only three student
residences are available for the approximately 5,700 students in the
city, which creates a market niche for our student apartments.
Reutlingen is a top location for students: the ESB Business School
that is based here again achieved outstanding university rankings
from the German 'WirtschaftsWoche' weekly business magazine in April
2012, for example in the subjects of business studies, industrial
engineering and business IT."

The Reutlingen-based University of Applied Sciences with its
affiliated ESB Business School can be reached from the new YOUNIQ
location in around ten minutes by way of public transport. Local
shopping amenities such as supermarkets are located only a few
minutes away by foot. The city centre, an important location for
student life, can be reached rapidly. This new project will raise the
number of apartments that YOUNIQ AG manages or is currently
constructing to a total of 3,478 units.
