ABO Wind AG has successfully placed its 2024/2029 bond (ISIN: DE000A3829F5,
WKN: A3829F). The Green Bond met with great interest from institutional
investors and asset managers as well as private investors and was
significantly oversubscribed at the original target volume of 50 million
euros. The company has decided to increase the volume by 15 million euros
and issue 65 million euros. The annual interest rate was set at 7.75 % p.a.
and will be paid semi-annually in arrears on 8 May and 8 November of each
year, for the first time on 8 November 2024.

The offer consisted of a public offer in Luxembourg and Germany via the
subscription functionality DirectPlace of Deutsche Börse AG, a public offer
in Germany, Luxembourg and Austria via the website of ABO Wind as well as a
private placement in Germany and selected other countries.

Due to the increase in the issue volume, all subscription orders submitted
as part of the public offer via the subscription functionality of Deutsche
Börse (DirectPlace) could be fully allocated up to a volume of 50,000 euros.
Subscription orders via the subscription functionality with a volume of more
than 50,000 euros were allocated at 80% (but at least 50,000 euros and
rounded down to the nearest thousand). Listing on the Frankfurt Stock
Exchange in the Quotation Board segment (Open Market) is scheduled for 8 May
2024. Trading on terms of issue on the Quotation Board of the Frankfurt
Stock Exchange is expected to be possible from 3 May 2024.

"We are delighted with the great interest shown by investors in our Green
Bond and would like to thank them for the trust they have placed in us,"
says CFO Alexander Reinicke, adding: "We can now use the funds to drive
forward our growth strategy and make an increasing contribution to the
energy transition and climate protection."

The net proceeds from the bond issue in the amount of around 62.5 million
euros will be used to finance current and future renewable energy and
storage projects. In accordance with ABO Wind's framework for Green Bonds,
the funds will be invested in the development and construction of wind and
solar parks as well as battery storage systems (individually and in
combination). As the Second Party Opinion of the expert imug rating also
