'new' share for three 'old' shares. The subscription period runs from November
28, 2016 to December 07, 2016. Subscription rights may not be traded. There will
be no compensation for any subscription rights that are not exercised. The new

markets", said Dr. Cornelius Boersch, President of the Board of Directors of
SANDPIPER. "The interest in the capital increase is very strong. Existing
investors can participate and have the right to subscribe", Jens Bäuml, Member
