AROUNDTOWN SUCCESSFULLY ISSUES BENCHMARK BOND AND IN PARALLEL LAUNCHED
TENDER TO BUYBACK SHORTER-TERM BONDS TO EXTEND DEBT MATURITY PROFILE

9 July 2024

Aroundtown (the "Company" or "AT"), announces the successful issuance of a
5-year EUR650 million unsecured bond (the "Issuance"). With this first senior
unsecured bond issuance in over two years, following the recent successful
bond issuance of its subsidiary Grand City Properties S.A. ("GCP", together
with AT the "Group"), the Group further diversified its broad range of
funding sources in addition to disposals and secured debt.

The new Series 40 bond will have a nominal amount of EUR650 million, a coupon
of 4.8% and a tenor of 5 years, maturing in Q3 2029. The Issuance attracted
very strong demand from high quality investors with a substantial book of
approx. EUR4.5 billion, as a result of which the Issuance was 7 times
oversubscribed. The bond is expected to be rated BBB+ by S&P.

In parallel the Company is executing a liability management exercise and
plans to utilize the proceeds of the Issuance to repay shorter-term debt to
pro-actively manage its debt profile. The liability management exercise was
launched on July 8th, is expected to expire on July 15th, and is targeting
over EUR1.8 billion in nominal value of bonds with near-term maturities
through a tender process (together with the Issuance the "Transaction").
Through this Transaction, the Company aims to extend its debt maturity
profile, as well as strengthen its balance sheet and support deleveraging.

Together with GCP, the Group issues EUR1.15 billion of bonds, receiving
significant investor interest and supporting its pro-active liability
management strategy.
