Luxembourg, August 15, 2018. Senvion S.A. ('Senvion') placed 8,116,883 new shares at EUR 7.70 per share under exclusion of shareholders' pre-emptive rights. The new shares were offered by Joh. Berenberg, Gossler & Co. KG exclusively to institutional investors by way of an accelerated bookbuild offering. Senvion's major shareholders, CCP II Acquisition Luxco S.à r.l. and CCP III Acquisition Luxco S.à r.l., affiliates of funds managed by Centerbridge Partners, L.P., purchased 4,870,130 of the new shares. The gross proceeds resulting from the transaction amount to EUR 62.5 million.

The new shares are expected to be included in the existing quotation on the sub-segment of the regulated market with additional post-admission obligations (Prime Standard) of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange as from August 20, 2018. Delivery of the new shares to investors is also expected to occur on August 20, 2018.
