Ternitz, 21.12.2015: Schoeller-Bleckmann Oilfield Equipment AG (SBO) was informed on 18.12.2015 and announces, pursuant to Sec 93 (2) BoerseG:

Aberdeen Asset Managers Limited (and/or acting for its affiliates) - 10 Queen’s Terrace, Aberdeen AB10 1YG - as discretionary investment manager on behalf of multiple managed portfolios (“AAML”), informed SBO, that as at 16 December 2015 it holds 789,969 shares representing 4.94% of the voting rights of SBO through investment funds and client accounts under management.

In total, AAML holds 822,814 shares representing 5.14% of the total capital of SBO, which includes 32,845 shares managed by AAML but where the client has retained the right to vote.

As of 16 December 2015, the split of the shares with voting rights attached are as follows:
• 634,922 voting shares, representing 3.97% of the voting rights
• 155,047 voting shares which are out on loan and AAML retains the right to recall these lent shares, representing 0.97% of the voting rights (classed as a financial instrument)

Therefore, the voting rights position allotted to shares has fallen below the 4% threshold under Article 91 of the Austrian Stock Exchange Act (German: Börsegesetz; BörsG) and the total voting rights position has fallen below the threshold of 5% under Article 91b of the Austrian Stock Exchange Act (the sum of shares and financial instruments and comparable positions in other instruments).

These percentages have been calculated on the basis of the number of voting rights of SBO as of 16 December 2015 (16,000,000).
