Company Information

Frankfurt am Main (euro adhoc) - - Purchase of a land plot of around
7,700 m² in Mainz - Creation of 395 student apartments directly next
to university

Frankfurt am Main, June 21, 2011 - Following the successful
conclusion of its capital increase, YOUNIQ AG, one of the leading
providers of high quality student apartments in Germany, is pushing
further ahead with the implementation of its project pipeline. The
company has acquired an undeveloped plot of land close to the
university from Wohnbau Mainz GmbH with a notary purchase agreement.
The "YOUNIQ Mainz" project entailing a total of 395 apartments is to
be created on an area of around 7,700 m² at Wallstrasse 31-37.

Locational benefits of the "YOUNIQ Mainz" development include
proximity to both the university campus and public transport
connections at Mainz Central Railway Station. Shops offering daily
requirements can also be found within easy walking distance. YOUNIQ
AG plans to rent fully furnished apartments based on its tried and
tested all-in standard. This comprises all incidental costs including
Internet and cable connections. The new project in Mainz boosts the
number of apartments that are either being managed or are under
construction to around 2,200 units, thereby further strengthening
YOUNIQ's market-leading position in Germany.

Rainer Nonnengässer, CEO of YOUNIQ AG, expressed his great pleasure
at the newly acquired site in the Rhine-Main region as follows: "With
almost 40,000 students, a high quality of life, and a shortage of
apartments, Mainz comprises a highly attractive location for us. We
are confident that we will shortly report on further acquisitions,
and thereby continue to consistently pursue our growth strategy."
