Exchange Rates and U.S. Dollar Subscription Price
From March 1, 2017 to April 7, 2017, the European Central Bank foreign exchange reference rate for U.S. dollars for Euros (which we refer to as the ECB Reference Rate) reached a high of $ 1.0889 and a low of $ 1.0514. For purposes of this offering, we have used the ECB Reference Rate to determine the exchange rate at which U.S. dollars are to be converted into Euros to exercise rights to subscribe for new shares. The ECB Reference Rate is fixed and reported daily and can thus be used to translate U.S. dollars into Euros on the date of the closing in Germany. On April 7, 2017, the ECB Reference Rate was $ 1.0630 = 1.00. The final U.S. dollar subscription price for U.S. shareholders exercising their rights in the rights offering is $ 12.38395 per new ordinary share, or 11.65 at the ECB Reference Rate on April 7, 2017.
Net Proceeds
The net proceeds of the rights offering and the sale of the new shares on the open market (before applicable taxes relating to the offering) are expected to be approximately 7.9 billion after deduction of commissions, fees and estimated expenses of approximately 148 million.
Share Capital and Shares
As of April 6, 2017, our share capital amounted to 5,290,939,215.36 consisting of 2,066,773,131 no par value ordinary registered shares, each representing a notional value of 2.56 in our share capital and carrying full dividend rights.
4,483,024 ordinary shares, representing 11,476,541.44 of our share capital, were held by or on behalf of us or one of our subsidiaries as of April 5, 2017. All of our issued ordinary shares are fully paid up.
