The detailed terms and conditions of the Tender Offer as well as instructions on how to accept the Tender Offer will be included in the Tender Offer Document, which the Offeror expects to publish on 31 December 2025 at the latest.

Regulatory Condition for Completion of the Tender Offer

The obligation of the Offeror to complete the Tender Offer is conditional upon the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals, permits and consents required under any applicable competition laws or other regulatory laws in any jurisdiction for the completion of the Tender Offer by the Offeror on or prior to the date of the Offeror's announcement of the final result of the Tender Offer in accordance with Chapter 11, Section 18 of the SMA.

The Offeror will, as soon as reasonably practicable, make all material and customary submissions, notifications and filings required to obtain all necessary regulatory approvals, permits, clearances and consents from authorities or similar, including without limitation approvals required under applicable foreign direct investment laws, required under applicable regulatory laws in any jurisdiction for the completion of the Tender Offer. Currently the Offeror has identified Swedish foreign direct investment clearance as the only necessary regulatory approval for the completion of the Tender Offer.

Based on currently available information, the Offeror expects to obtain such necessary regulatory approvals to complete the Tender Offer during the first quarter of 2026. The Offeror will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain such regulatory approvals. However, the length and outcome of the regulatory approval process are not within the control of the Offeror, and there can be no assurances that clearances will be obtained within the estimated timeframe, or at all.

Financing

The Tender Offer is fully financed by a combination of cash funds available to the Offeror and debt financing provided by an Israeli bank to the Offeror pursuant to a financing agreement.

The debt financing has been committed, subject to the following conditions normally used on the financial markets:

  1. the provision of certain customary documentary and commercial conditions precedent, which are in the control of the Offeror,
  2. the completion of the Tender Offer,
  3. compliance by the Offeror with certain provisions relating to security arrangements, which are in the control of the Offeror,
  4. no material adverse change in the financial condition of the Offeror has occurred since 27 November 2025, the date of its latest release of financial statements,
  5. the representations and warranties that the Offeror has made to the bank remain accurate, including representations as to the company's continued solvency and compliance with laws,
  6. the Offeror complies with its undertakings under the loan agreement, including but not limited to meeting certain financial covenants (including with regard to the Offeror's shareholder equity, the Offeror's and Citycon's debt to assets ratio and the Offeror's interest coverage ratio), and no event of default under the financing agreement has occurred (that is, G City remains in compliance with its obligations under the financing agreement as well as its other contractual obligations, and no event occurs that would render it insolvent or threaten its continued financial stability), and
  7. it has not become illegal or prohibited for the bank to make available or allow to remain outstanding the debt financing, or to enforce its rights under the loan agreement.

The Offeror's obligation to complete the Tender Offer is not conditional upon availability of debt financing.

Future plans concerning the Shares and Stock Options

The Offeror offers to acquire all the Shares and Stock Options. If, as a result of the completion of the Tender Offer or otherwise, the Offeror's ownership has exceeded 90 per cent of all Shares and votes in the Company, the Offeror may commence compulsory redemption proceedings for all the remaining Shares in accordance with the Finnish Companies Act. If the Offeror would decide to commence such proceedings, the Offeror would thereafter apply for the Citycon shares to be delisted from Nasdaq Helsinki, as soon as permitted and reasonably practicable under the applicable laws and regulations and the rules of Nasdaq Helsinki. In connection with any such redemption proceedings, the Offeror would also acquire the Stock Options which have not been validly tendered in the Tender Offer, or otherwise acquired by the Offeror, in accordance with the terms and conditions of such Stock Options.

If, as a result of completion of the Tender Offer or otherwise, the Offeror's ownership does not exceed 90 per cent of all Shares and votes in the Company or in the case the Offeror would not decide to commence compulsory redemption proceedings in the event its ownership exceeds 90 per cent of all Shares and votes in the Company, the Company will continue to be listed on Nasdaq Helsinki and the Offeror intends to continue to support and develop Citycon's business operations in accordance with the highest international standards and in the best interests of all shareholders of Citycon.

The full release published by G City is attached to this stock exchange release.

The Board of Directors of Citycon will review the mandatory tender offer by independent members in accordance with the Securities Markets Act and other applicable laws and regulations and publish its statement on the mandatory tender offer once the tender offer document has been published. Citycon has appointed Deutsche Bank AG as its financial advisor and Hannes Snellman Attorneys Ltd as its legal advisor in connection with the mandatory tender offer. Citycon has undertaken to follow the Helsinki Takeover Code issued by the Finnish Securities Market Association.

Information for shareholders and holders of Stock Options of Citycon in the United States

Shareholders and Stock Option holders of Citycon in the United States are advised that the Shares are not listed on a U.S. securities exchange and that Citycon is not subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and is not required to, and does not, file any reports with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") thereunder.

The Tender Offer will be made for the issued and outstanding Shares and Stock Options of Citycon, which is domiciled in Finland, and is subject to Finnish disclosure and procedural requirements. The Tender Offer is expected to be made in the United States pursuant to Section 14(e) of, and Regulation 14E, under the Exchange Act, subject to the exemption provided under Rule 14d-1(d) under the Exchange Act, for a Tier II tender offer and otherwise in accordance with the disclosure and procedural requirements of Finnish law, including with respect to the Tender Offer timetable, settlement procedures, withdrawal, waiver of conditions and timing of payments, which are different from those applicable under the tender offer procedures and laws of the United States for domestic offers. In particular, the financial information included in this announcement has been prepared in accordance with applicable accounting standards in Finland, which may not be comparable to the financial statements or financial information of U.S. companies. The Tender Offer is made to Citycon's shareholders and Stock Option holders resident in the United States on the same terms and conditions as those made to all other shareholders and Stock Option holders of Citycon to whom an offer is made. Any informational documents, including this announcement, are being disseminated to U.S. shareholders and Stock Option holders on a basis comparable to the method that such documents are provided to Citycon's other shareholders and Stock Option holders.

To the extent permissible under applicable law or regulations, the Offeror and its affiliates or its brokers and its brokers' affiliates (acting as agents for the Offeror or its affiliates, as applicable) may from time to time after the date of this stock exchange release and during the pendency of the Tender Offer, and other than pursuant to the Tender Offer, directly or indirectly purchase or arrange to purchase Shares or any securities that are convertible into, exchangeable for or exercisable for Shares, provided that any such purchases shall be effected outside of the United States. These purchases may occur either in the open market at prevailing prices or in private transactions at negotiated prices, and the consideration in the Tender Offer must be increased to match any such consideration paid outside the Tender Offer. To the extent information about such purchases or arrangements to purchase is made public in Finland, such information will be disclosed by means of a press release or other means reasonably calculated to inform U.S. shareholders and Stock Option holders of Citycon of such information. In addition, the financial adviser to the Offeror may also engage in ordinary course trading activities in securities of Citycon, which may include purchases or arrangements to purchase such securities. To the extent required in Finland, any information about such purchases will be made public in Finland in the manner required by Finnish law.

Neither the SEC nor any U.S. state securities commission has approved or disapproved the Tender Offer, passed upon the merits or fairness of the Tender Offer, or passed any comment upon the adequacy, accuracy or completeness of the disclosure in relation to the Tender Offer. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offence in the United States.

The receipt of cash pursuant to the Tender Offer by a U.S. holder of Shares or Stock Options may be a taxable transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes and under applicable U.S. state and local, as well as foreign and other, tax laws. Each holder of Shares or Stock Options is urged to consult its independent professional advisers immediately regarding the tax and other consequences of accepting the Tender Offer.

To the extent the Tender Offer is subject to U.S. securities laws, those laws only apply to U.S. holders of Shares or Stock Options, and will not give rise to claims on the part of any other person. It may be difficult for Citycon's shareholders or Stock Option holders to enforce their rights and any claims they may have arising under the U.S. federal securities laws, since the Offeror and Citycon are located in non-U.S. jurisdictions and some or all of their respective officers and directors may be residents of non-U.S. jurisdictions. Citycon's shareholders or Stock Option holders may not be able to sue the Offeror or Citycon or their respective officers or directors in a non-U.S. court for violations of the U.S. federal securities laws. It may be difficult to compel the Offeror and Citycon and their respective affiliates to subject themselves to a U.S. court's judgment.
