Frankfurt am Main, February 17, 2021. Gateway Real Estate AG (WKN A0JJTG / ISIN DE000A0JJTG7) ("Gateway") acquires two residential development sites with a total of around 540,000 sqm of floor space in Cologne and Dresden. To this end, the company has reached an agreement with SN Beteiligungen Holding AG ("SNBH") on the acquisition of all shares in Borussia Invest GmbH by Gateway. The notarization of the share purchase agreement, which has just been approved by the Supervisory Board of Gateway, will take place in the course of today.

Borussia Invest GmbH holds 89.9% of the shares in each of the above projects. The total volume of the transaction amounts to approximately EUR 289 million including loans assumed by and proportionately attributable to Gateway in the course of the acquisition. The purchase price due after closing is in the upper two-digit million euro range.
