of € 20 million and maximum of € 26.5 million (40% of the € 66 million of outstanding cumulative preference

share capital within the capital structure, as well as the coupon value, Heijmans intends to use the proceeds
to acquire a minimum of € 20 million financing preference shares. Remaining revenues proceeds will be used
for generic company purposes.
The issue price and final number of Shares to be issued will be determined at the conclusion of the Equity
Offering and will be announced through a subsequent press release. Books open with immediate effect,
settlement of the Offering is expected to take place on 26 May 2015. The admittance of the Shares to listing
and trading on Euronext in Amsterdam is expected to take place on this date.
Under the terms of the offering, there will be a 180-day lock-up period following the settlement date for the
company on issuances or sales of shares and securities that give the holder the right to acquire shares. The
lock-up does not apply to the issuance of cumulative preference shares or preference shares.
ING is Sole Global Coordinator and Sole Bookrunner for the offering.
