TK Development A/S publishes a prospectus today for a rights issue of 14,021,905 new shares of DKK 15 nominal value each at DKK 15 per new share Today, TK Development A/S (the ”Company”) publishes a prospectus relating to the offer of 14,021,905 new shares with preemptive rights to the Company's existing shareholders (the ”Offering”) pursuant to a resolution to increase the Company's share capital adopted by the shareholders at the Company's extraordinary general meeting held on 1 July 2010. Reference is made to the prospectus in its entirety for a description of the Company and the Offering. The new shares are offered to the Company's existing shareholders at the subscription ratio of 1:2, meaning that one (1) preemptive right will be granted for each existing share held, and two (2) preemptive rights will be required to subscribe for one (1) new share against payment of the subscription price of DKK 15 per new share. The Company expects to receive gross proceeds from the Offering of DKK 210.3 million, and net proceeds of approximately DKK 198.3 million after deduction of estimated costs in connection with the Offering. Reasons for the Offering Management reviews the capital structure of TK Development on a regular basis, as well as the need for any adjustments. Management's overall aim is to provide a capital structure that supports the Company's long-term growth, while at the same time ensuring the best possible relation between equity and loan capital and thus maximising the return for the shareholders. Management believes that the present cash flows and equity base of TK Development will be sufficient to execute the projects currently in progress, also without selling any of the completed projects. Moreover, it is expected that the projects which have been fully financed, either by bank loans or by forward funding, can be executed. In order to initiate the development and construction of additional projects and thus exploit the project opportunities, management assesses that a capital injection of about DKK 200 million will be necessary and will provide an opportunity to increase shareholder returns. These expectations are based on several specific projects for which the Company would like to secure the rights at the current price level. Management expects that this will help the Company gain faster access to projects with a higher anticipated return than that offered by most of the existing ongoing projects in the portfolio. The scope of additional projects initiated will, apart from the capital injection, also depend on the future sale of completed projects, general market conditions,etc. Advance commitments and underwriting A group of existing shareholders has made advance commitments to TK Development, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, to exercise preemptive rights allocated on the basis of the existing shares held by each of them to subscribe for a total of 3,870,676 new shares corresponding to total gross proceeds of DKK 58.1 million. Furthermore, a number of investors have made underwriting commitments to the Company, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, to subscribe, in proportion to their underwriting commitments, for up to 10,152,884 new shares at the subscription price which have not been subscribed for by the existing shareholders pursuant to preemptive rights allocated or by investors pursuant to preemptive rights acquired on expiry of the subscription period, corresponding to total gross proceeds of DKK 152.3 million. Consequently, the company has received advance and underwriting commitments to subscribe for at total of 14,023,560 new shares corresponding to more than the total number of shares in the Offering.
