A subsidiary of the real estate and investment company Domicil Real Estate AG has signed a borrower’s note loan in the amount of approx. EUR 300 million. The issued borrower’s note has a term of four years and bears an interest coupon of 4.00 per cent p.a. The funds are being used to finance a portfolio of real estate assets acquired by Domicil. Deutsche Bank AG serves as the arranger, bank, initial creditor and payment agent.

“As we continue to strategically develop our company, we are also gradually unlocking all the instruments in the corporate finance toolbox.  In this respect the borrower’s note loan is a bespoke instrument which we were able to adapt to the needs of our corporate strategy in cooperation with and in a spirit of partnership with the team at Deutsche Bank AG. This strategy foresees the resale of leased apartments as condominiums to retail investors while strictly adhering to all legal standards in place to protect the sitting tenants,” explains Holger Lueth, Deputy CEO und CFO of Domicil Real Estate AG, adding: “We are pleased to be able to implement an innovative financing concept and in doing so to finance Domicil Real Estate AG’s existing pipeline for the coming years at attractive conditions. By issuing this capital market instrument we are taking our company one step further. We would like to thank all the parties involved for the transparent and constructive cooperation.”

Legal advice was provided to Domicil by Ashurst, with White & Case acting on behalf of the bank. Wilmington Trust SP Services (Frankfurt) GmbH is serving as the security trustee and Solutus Advisors GmbH as the facility agent.
