(iv)
thoroughly read and understand the Terms and Conditions of the Notes; and
(v)
be able to (either on its own or with the assistance of a financial advisor) evaluate possible developments in

for risks to materialize.
Investments by certain investors are subject to investment laws and regulations and the supervision or regulation
by certain authorities.
Any potential investor should consult a financial advisor to determine if and to what extent
(i)
the Notes constitute a suitable investment for such an investor,
(ii)
the Notes may be used as collateral for different forms of borrowing, and
(iii)
other restrictions are applicable to any purchase or pledging of the Notes. Financial institutions should

Regulation (EC) No 974/98 of May 3, 1998 on the introduction of the Euro, as amended.
Where financial information in tables in this Prospectus is labelled "audited", this means that it has been taken
from the audited consolidated financial statements incorporated by reference into this Prospectus. The label
"unaudited" is used in tables in this Prospectus to indicate financial information that has not been taken from the
consolidated audited financial statements incorporated by reference into this Prospectus, but was taken from the
Company's unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements, internal reporting system, or is based
on calculations of figures from the abovementioned sources.
All of the financial data presented in the Prospectus are shown in thousands of Euro (in thousands or
" thousand"), except as otherwise stated.
Certain financial information (including percentages) in this Prospectus is rounded according to established
commercial standards. As a result, the aggregate amounts (sum totals or sub-totals or differences or if numbers are
put in relation) in tables in this Prospectus may not correspond in all cases to the aggregated amounts of the
underlying (unrounded) figures appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus. Furthermore, in those tables, these rounded
figures may not add up exactly to the totals contained in those tables. Financial information presented in
parentheses denotes the negative of such number presented. In respect of financial information set out in this
Prospectus, a dash ("­") signifies that the relevant figure is not available, while a zero ("0.0") signifies that the
relevant figure is available but has been rounded to zero.
ii


References to "CEST" in this Prospectus refer to Central European Summer Time, as the case may be. References
to time in this Prospectus refer to CEST, unless stated otherwise.
The legally binding language of this Prospectus is English. Any part of the Prospectus in German constitutes a
translation, except for the Terms and Conditions of the Notes and the Exchange Offer in respect of which German
is the legally binding language.
MIFID II PRODUCT GOVERNANCE / TARGET MARKET
Solely for the purposes of each manufacturer's product approval process, the target market assessment in respect
of the Notes has led to the conclusion that: (i) the target market for the Notes is eligible counterparties, professional
clients and retail clients, each as defined in Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended, "MiFID II"); and (ii) all channels
for distribution of the Notes to eligible counterparties and professional clients are appropriate. Any person
subsequently offering, selling or recommending the Notes (a "distributor") should take into consideration the
manufacturers' target market assessment; however, a distributor subject to MiFID II is responsible for undertaking
its own target market assessment in respect of the Notes (by either adopting or refining the manufacturers' target
market assessment) and determining appropriate distribution channels, subject to the distributor's suitability and
appropriateness obligations under MiFID II, as applicable.
For the avoidance of doubt, the target market assessment does not constitute (i) an assessment of suitability or
appropriateness for the purposes of MiFID II or (ii) a recommendation to any investor or group of investors to
invest in, or purchase, or take any other action whatsoever with respect to the Notes.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Prospectus contains certain forward-looking statements. A forward-looking statement is a statement that does
not relate to historical facts and events. They are based on analyses or forecasts of future results and estimates of
amounts not yet determinable or foreseeable. These forward-looking statements are identified by the use of terms
and phrases such as "anticipates", "believes", "estimates", "expects", "intends", "plans", "predicts", "projects",
"targets" and similar terms and phrases, including references and assumptions. This applies, in particular, to
statements in this Prospectus containing information on the future plans and expectations regarding the Issuer's
business and management, its growth and profitability, and general economic and regulatory conditions and other
factors that affect it.
Forward-looking statements in this Prospectus are based on current estimates and assumptions that the Issuer
makes to the best of its present knowledge. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties
iii


and other factors, which could cause actual results, including the Issuer'S financial condition and results of
operations, to differ materially from, and be worse than, results that have expressly or implicitly been assumed or
described in these forward-looking statements. The Issuer's business is also subject to a number of risks and
uncertainties that could cause actual developments to differ from the forward-looking statements, estimates or
predictions in this Prospectus.
In light of the uncertainties and assumptions, it is also possible that the future events mentioned in this Prospectus
may not occur or may differ materially from actual events. In addition, the forward-looking estimates and forecasts
reproduced in this Prospectus from third party sources could prove to be inaccurate. The foregoing may prevent
the Issuer from achieving its financial and strategic objectives.
See "1 RISK FACTORS" for further description of some of the factors that could influence the Company's forward-
looking statements.
The forward-looking statements contained in this Prospectus speak only as of the date on which they were made.
Investors are advised that neither the Issuer nor the Selling Agents assumes any obligation and do not intend to,
except as required by law, publicly release any updates or revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect
any change in the Issuer's expectations with regard thereto or any change in events, conditions or circumstances
on which any such statement is based or to adjust them in line with future events or developments.
SOURCES OF MARKET DATA
Furthermore, this Prospectus contains industry related data taken or derived from industry and market research
reports published by third parties ("External Data") and External Data regarding the market environment, market
developments, growth rates, market trends and competition in the markets in which METALCORP GROUP
operates are based on the Issuer's assessments. These assessments, in turn, are based in part on internal
observations of the market and on various market studies. Commercial publications generally state that the
information they contain originated from sources assumed to be reliable, but that the accuracy and completeness
of such information is not guaranteed and that the calculations contained therein are based on a series of
assumptions. The External Data have not been independently verified by the Issuer. The External Data was
reproduced accurately by the Issuer in the Prospectus, and as far as the Issuer is aware and is able to ascertain from
information published by any third party, no facts have been omitted that would render the reproduced External
Data inaccurate or misleading. The Issuer does not have access to the underlying facts and assumptions of
numerical and market data and other information contained in publicly available sources. Consequently, such
numerical and market data or other information cannot be verified by the Issuer.
Irrespective of the assumption of responsibility for the content of this Prospectus by the Issuer, the Issuer has not
independently verified the figures, market data or other information on which third parties have based their studies.
Accordingly, the Issuer makes no representation or warranty as to the accuracy of any such information from third-
party studies. Prospective investors should note that the Issuer's own estimates and statements of opinion and
belief are not always based on studies of third parties.
To the extent information contained in this Prospectus has been sourced from third parties, such information has
been accurately reproduced and as far as the Issuer is aware and able to ascertain from information published by
that respective third party, no facts have been omitted which would render the reproduced information inaccurate
or misleading
