Capital increase of up to 15,323,121 new shares to finance further growth and acquisition of two office properties in Hamburg and Stuttgart

Hamburg, 29 January 2018 - Today, the Management Board of alstria office REIT-AG ("alstria", "The Company", ISIN DE000A0LD2U1), with the approval of the Supervisory Board, resolved on a capital increase of the Company's nominal share capital from EUR 153,961,654 by up to EUR 15,323,121 to up to EUR 169,284,775 by issuing up to 15,323,121 new no-par value ordinary bearer shares against cash contributions. The new shares will be issued under exclusion of shareholders' subscription rights utilizing alstria's authorized capital.

The new shares shall be admitted to trading on the regulated market of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange with a simultaneous listing in the Prime Standard segment of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, which has enhanced disclosure obligations, without publication of a securities prospectus. The new shares will carry full dividend rights for the fiscal year 2017. alstria has committed to a lock up period of 90 days from Settlement.

The new shares will be offered for purchase exclusively to institutional investors in Germany and abroad in a private placement by way of an accelerated book building process.

alstria will use the proceeds to fund further growth through acquisitions, including c. EUR 87.4 m for the acquisition of two properties in Hamburg and Stuttgart that have already been secured. Remaining funds will be deployed in-line with alstria's investment approach and will be used for further acquisitions or repayment of debt including a potential cash settlement of the convertible bond.

alstria confirms that it will meet its financial guidance for 2017 (revenues of EUR 193 m and FFO of EUR 113 m).

In parallel the company announces the acquisition of two office buildings located in Hamburg and Stuttgart.

The assets comprise a combined lettable area of 34,700 sqm, were acquired at an all-in cost of around EUR 87.4 m and are generating an annual rental income of EUR 3.7 m (EUR 9.0 per sqm/month). The buildings are fully let and have a WAULT of around 5.5 years. Given the low in-place rent the acquired assets offer a substantial reversion potential considering the current market rents (which are estimated at EUR 5.5 m p.a., or EUR 13.0/sqm/month).

"alstria has a strong track record of disciplined capital allocation" said Alexander Dexne, CFO of alstria office REIT-AG. "The two acquisitions that we have secured so far this year demonstrate that despite the strong competitive environment we are able to source and execute the acquisition of office properties in Germany on which we are confident to deliver our hurdle rate returns."

"We are funding the new assets with part of the proceeds from a capital increase" said Olivier Elamine, CEO of alstria office REIT AG. "The German investment market remains strong, which is also underpinned by the FY 2017 portfolio revaluation. Our independent appraisers today confirmed that alstria's portfolio will experience a valuation gain of approx. EUR 180 m (EUR 1.17 per share)."

Morgan Stanley and UBS Limited are acting as Joint Bookrunners for the placement. Kempen is acting as Co-Lead Manager.
