Leoni secures long-term refinance 

Nuremberg, 14 September 2012 - Leoni AG of Nuremberg (ISIN DE 0005408884 /
WKN 540888) today successfully placed a borrower's note loan in the amount
of EUR 250 million. The cables group was thereby early in securing
continuation of its long-term financing. The amount is split into seven
tranches with five, six, seven and ten-year maturities. Leoni's original
plan was to refinance EUR 150 million, but increased the amount due to
significant oversubscription and pricing at the lower end of the projected
range. The Company chose a favourable time with today's date to realign its
refinancing on attractive terms and thus to significantly extend and spread
the due dates of its liabilities. The partially repaid existing borrower's
note loans would normally have matured in March 2013 and March 2015. Leoni
has, with this long-term refinance, further underpinned its future growth.
The deal was transacted by a syndicate comprising UniCredit Bank,
Landesbank Baden-Württemberg and HSBC.
