UNIQA Insurance Group AG ("UNIQA" or the "Company") publicly announced on 25
November 2021 that it (i) invites holders of its (a) EUR 350,000,000
Subordinated Fixed to Floating Rate Bonds, ISIN XS0808635436 (the "2023 Notes"),
and (b) EUR 500,000,000 Subordinated Fixed to Floating Rate Bonds, ISIN
XS1117293107 (the "2026 Notes"; together with the 2023 Notes the "Notes" and
each a "Series"), to tender their Notes up to an aggregate maximum principal
amount of EUR 300,000,000 or such other amount as the Company may determine in
its sole discretion for repurchase by the Company (the "Tender Offer" or the
"Repurchase") and, in connection with the intended Repurchase, (ii) intends to
issue new subordinated (Tier 2) fixed to floating rate notes in a minimum
denomination of EUR 100,000 (the "New Notes") in the same principal amount as
Notes repurchased.
Repurchase and placement of the New Notes have been successfully completed
today.
The results of the Repurchase, which are higher than the indicative results
previously published on 2 December 2021, are as follows (terms used below have
the same meaning as in the English language tender offer memorandum prepared by
the Company):
1. Final Maximum Tender Amount: EUR 375,000,000; thereof:

Further, UNIQA successfully placed an aggregate principal amount of EUR
375,000,000 New Notes with institutional investors in Austria and abroad.
Subject to certain conditions, the New Notes are scheduled to be repaid after
expiry of 20 years and can be redeemed early by UNIQA for the first time after
ten years. They bear interest at a fixed rate of 2.375 % per year during the
first ten years and at a floating interest rate thereafter. The issue price was
set at 99.316 % of the par value. The New Notes will be eligible as tier 2 basic
own funds in accordance with regulatory requirements.
As a result of the Repurchase being made at a premium above par value UNIQA's
financing costs are expected to increase by approximately 65 million Euro in
2021. Subsequent to the Repurchase and the placement of the New Notes UNIQA
expects an average reduction of financing costs of approximately 9 million Euro
per annum from 2022 onwards. The headline coupons of the 2023 Notes and 2026
Notes of 6.000% and 6.875% respectively, for the principal amount purchased via
the Tender Offer, have been refinanced with the placement of the New Notes with
a headline coupon of 2.375%.
Admission of the New Notes to trading on the Official Market (Amtlicher Handel)
of the Vienna Stock Exchange will be applied for. Trading of the New Notes is
expected to commence on 9 December 2021.
