Münster, 29 November 2018 - The Management Board of UNITEDLABELS AG today resolved to increase the Company's share capital subject to the approval of the Supervisory Board. With partial utilisation of the entity's Authorised Capital 2015, the share capital of UNITEDLABELS AG is to be increased by a nominal amount of up to EUR 630,000.00 (this corresponds to up to 10% of the previous share capital), excluding shareholders' subscription rights. The increase will be made against cash contributions through the issuance of up to 630,000 new no-par-value ordinary shares (so-called "Stückaktien" governed by German law).
