   THIS  ANNOUNCEMENT  IS  NOT  FOR  RELEASE,  PUBLICATION  OR  DISTRIBUTION,
   DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, IN OR  INTO THE UNITED STATES, AUSTRALIA,  CANADA,
   JAPAN, SOUTH  AFRICA  OR ANY  OTHER  JURISDICTION  WHERE TO  DO  SO  WOULD

   AROUNDTOWN ANNOUNCES SUCCESSFUL RESULT OF THE VOLUNTARY EXCHANGE OFFER FOR
   GCP SHARES, INCREASING ITS HOLDING IN GCP TO 81.5%

   14 April 2026.

   Aroundtown (“the Company” or “AT”) announces the successful result of  the
   voluntary exchange offer (the “Offer”) for shares in Grand City Properties
   S.A. (“GCP”), launched on 4March 2026. Aroundtown’s ownership in GCP  will
   increase to 81.5% upon settlement, compared to 62.5% ownership held  prior
   to the Offer. The increased holding rate further strengthens  Aroundtown’s
   position as a diversified European  real estate platform with exposure  to
   both  commercial  and  residential  assets.  Aroundtown  has  successfully
   increased its  stake in  GCP and  benefits from  an expanded  equity  free
   float, supporting improved  trading liquidity  and the  group’s long  term
   capital markets profile.

   Aroundtown will exchange 133,437,304 Aroundtown shares for the  33,359,326
   shares of GCP  which have  been tendered, which  is approx.  19% of  GCP’s
   total share count. All the shares delivered under the exchange offer  will
   be eligible to receive the dividend for the 2025 financial year, which the
   Company intends to propose for the 2026 AGM.

   As a result of the accretive transaction, the Company expects a strong FFO
   I increase of  €35 million  on an annualized  basis. The  Company’s FFO  I
   guidance for  2026, including  the partial  impact of  the transaction  in
   2026, increases to a range of €275 million to €305 million. On a per share
   basis, the  transaction is  neutral  on day  one  and therefore  the  2026
   guidance remains  in the  range  of €0.24  to  €0.27. The  transaction  is
   expected to be per share accretive in  the mid-term and drive growth on  a
   per share basis.

   The Offer  follows  other recent  measures  which Aroundtown  executed  to
   support FFO I growth in addition to regular operational performance,  such
   as targeted hotel repositioning’s, office conversions, and other  targeted
   portfolio measures, while  at the  same time  executing accretive  balance
   sheet measures, such as the perpetual note transactions executed in recent
   months and the  ongoing €250  million share buyback  program. The  running
   share buyback program  is 72% completed  as of last  Friday, in which  the
   Company has so far repurchased 70.7 million shares. The share buyback  has
   been accretive on a per‑share basis and has partially offset the  increase
   in the number of shares resulting from the Offer. Together these  measures
   reflect  Aroundtown’s  focus  on   generating  strong  accretive   growth,
   disciplined capital allocation  approach, and  creating value  both on  an
   absolute and per‑share basis.

   Settlement of the Offer and the  transfer of the Aroundtown shares to  the
   respective custodian banks  is expected  on April  23, 2026.  Shareholders
   with questions  regarding  the settlement  of  the Offer  are  advised  to
   contact their respective custodian banks for further information.
