Citycon Oyj explores possibilities for a Euro denominated unsecured bond issue in an amount of EUR 300 million. The bond would be offered mainly to European, including Nordic, institutional investors through a book building procedure and, if issued, the expected maturity of the bond would be 7 years. Citycon would apply for the bond to be admitted to the Official List of the Irish Stock Exchange and to trading on its regulated market.

 

 The proceeds from any potential bond issue would be used to prepay existing debt in order to extend average debt maturities, pay down credit facilities and for general corporate purposes.

 

 Citycon has mandated Deutsche Bank, Pohjola Bank plc and UBS Investment Bank to arrange investor meetings to explore prerequisites for the potential bond issue. Citycon will announce further information as soon as such information is available.

 

 Important regulatory notice

 

 The bond will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States subject to certain exemptions.

 

 This announcement does not constitute an advertisement for the purposes of the Prospectus Directive.
