What are the key risks that are specific to the Company?
·
Our business is significantly dependent on our ability to generate earnings from rentals. Our rental income
and operating profit could particularly be negatively affected by a potential increase in vacancy rates.
·
Our ability to operate our business successfully relies on assumptions and contingencies that may prove
to be incorrect. Such assumptions and contingencies may prove to be inaccurate, either in part or as a
whole, in particular due to unexpected liabilities, incomplete or wrong assessment of markets, value
determinations and due diligence findings and challenges with respect to achieving anticipated synergies
and insufficient investment horizons.
·
We rely on our ability to identify potential real estate portfolio acquisitions in order to pursue our
investment strategies. We may not be able to identify all risks associated with any such acquisitions.
Assumptions could prove to be insufficient or incorrect and a successful integration of acquisitions may
not be achievable.
·
Our business is dependent on regional real estate markets and their liquidity, particularly Berlin, which
may be subject to adverse market developments. Fluctuation in the development of the currently high
demand and prices could make it difficult for us to conduct our business activities and to implement our
strategy to capture additional growth opportunities.
·
Our investments are in real estate and due to the potentially illiquid nature of the real estate market, we
may not be able to sell any portion of our portfolio or investments in a timely fashion, on favorable terms
or at all.
·
Property valuation is inherently subjective and uncertain and is based on assumptions which may prove
to be inaccurate or affected by factors outside of our control. The property valuation serves as a basis of
and is combined with other factors for our fair value model which, ultimately, could require downward
revisions of the current fair values of our investment properties.
·
In the event of a downturn or other developments in the real estate markets in Germany or a downturn in
the interest rate environment, the fair values of the properties in our property portfolio may decline,
which may have material adverse effects on the valuation of our property portfolio.
·
An increase in general interest rate levels may increase our financing costs, while the current economic
environment, characterized by relatively high values of our properties and the prices at which we are
able to sell our properties, may decrease.
·
German laws protecting residential tenants and existing restrictions on the rate of rental increases could
make it more difficult to increase the rents of residential units we own.
·
Our business is subject to the general legal environment in Germany. Any disadvantageous changes in
the legal environment, such as mandatory environmental modernization provisions, restrictions
regarding modernization measures or provisions (including taxes) that result in the incurrence of costs in
the event of a property sale, or disadvantageous changes to the Berlin Mietspiegel regulation, may be
detrimental to us.
S-4

·
The structure of the Company is mainly influenced by the general tax environment in Luxembourg,
Germany and further countries of the European Union (Netherlands, Denmark and Ireland) and changes
in the tax environment may increase our tax burden.
·
ADLER Real Estate is a real estate company that is exposed to a variety of risks that we believe are
comparable to the risks associated with our business activities. However, it cannot be ruled out that
ADLER Real Estate may be exposed to further, previously unrecognized risks, the realization of which
could also have a material adverse effect on the net assets, financial position and results of operations of
the Combined Group created through the Completion and Integration.

market segment (Regulierter Markt) of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (Frankfurter Wertpapierbörse) with
simultaneous admission to the sub-segment thereof with additional post-admission obligations (Prime
Standard). This corresponds to the acceptance of the Offer for 66,404,915 shares of ADLER Real Estate, each

Rights Attached
The New Shares are fully fungible and rank pari passu in all respects with the existing shares of the Company.

Dividend Policy
The Company aims to distribute an annual dividend of up to 50% of the annual cash flow from rental activities
("FFO 1") to the shareholders of the Company. FFO 1 is derived from the EBITDA from rental activities of
the Company for the respective periods, adjusted for the net cash interest and current income taxes. FFO 1 is a
customary performance indicator to evaluate the performance of the recurring operating profits of a real estate
company. The decision to distribute dividends from annual net profits is subject to a resolution by the General
Meeting, whereas the Board of Directors may, pursuant to the articles of association of the Company, also
declare interim dividends. Any future determination to pay dividends will be made in accordance with
applicable laws, and will depend upon, among other factors, the Company's results of operations, financial
condition, contractual restrictions and capital requirements. The Company's future ability to pay dividends
may be limited by the terms of any existing and future debt or preferred securities.

Where will the securities be traded?
On or about April 8, 2020, the Company intends to apply for admission of the New Shares to trading on the
regulated market segment (Regulierter Markt) of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (Frankfurter Wertpapierbörse)
with simultaneous admission to the sub-segment thereof with additional post-admission obligations (Prime

What are the key risks attached to the securities?
·
Future capital measures like the issuance of new shares from authorized capital, which currently amounts
to 750,000,000, the exercise of share options and any amendment to the capital structure to be resolved
by the General Meeting could lead to a significant dilution, thereby reducing the value of the
shareholding of the existing shareholders of the Company.
·
The share price and the trading volume of the shares of the Company could fluctuate significantly,
including due to disposals by any major or majority shareholder, which could, ultimately, result in
significant losses for shareholders of the Company.
·
The ability of the Company to distribute dividends is dependent on a variety of factors. The previous
dividend distributions, which amounted to 0.75, 0.60 and 0.45 per share for the fiscal years ended
December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively, are no indication for future dividend distributions.
Additionally, the dividend policy of the Company may change in the future.
