PRESS RELEASE | 3 JUNE 2014

Weng Fine Art AG expands its share buyback program and increases participation in Artnet slightly

The Supervisory Board of Weng Fine Art AG (WFA) has decided, pursuant to § 71 Abs. 1 Nr. 8 AktG, to extend the stock buyback program in terms of scope and duration. Accordingly, WFA may now acquire up to 150,000 of its own shares until 30 June 2015, corresponding to about 5.5% of the share capital. Prior to this decision, the share buyback program was limited to 100,000 shares and was due to expire on January 31 2015. This provides WFA with more strategic flexibility regarding its planned business expansion. For example, the acquired shares may be used as non-dilutive acquisition currency for existing shareholders. So far, 51,000 shares were purchased under the current share buyback program.

The basis of the buyback program was authorized in the General Meeting of September 9, 2013. The shares will be purchased exclusively through the Frankfurt Stock Exchange and the Xetra system, where WFA will neither pay more than 10%, nor less than 25% of the 10-day average closing price recorded on the Xetra trading system. The Board may terminate the share buyback program ahead of schedule and use the repurchased shares for all legally permissible purposes.

Furthermore, WFA AG has slightly expanded its stake in the leading art internet company Artnet AG to more than 5%. A significant further expansion of this participation is not currently planned.
