The New Convertible Bonds with a denomination of CHF 200,000 will be issued at par and carry a coupon of 0.75 %, payable semi-annually in arrears. The conversion price is CHF 87.00, corresponding to a conversion premium of 45 % over the reference share price, which is equal to the offer price determined in the concurrent share placement and delta hedging transactions of certain convertible bonds investors. Unless previously converted, redeemed, or re-purchased and cancelled, the New Convertible Bonds will be redeemed at par at maturity on 30 March 2026.

The shares to be delivered upon conversion of the New Convertible Bonds will be sourced from conditional capital or from existing shares. For this purpose, the Board of Directors will be seeking shareholders' approval at the next ordinary general meeting, scheduled for 18 May 2021, for the creation of conditional capital sufficient to enable the physical settlement of the New Convertible Bonds upon conversion. If shareholder approval for the creation of conditional capital is not passed and registered before 30 June 2021, the New Convertible Bonds will be redeemed in cash at 102 % of the greater of the principal amount and the fair market value of the New Convertible Bonds, plus accrued but unpaid interest, and otherwise in accordance with their terms.

Dufry agreed to a lock-up period of 90 days following closing of the New Convertible Bonds issuance, subject to customary exceptions and waiver by the Joint Global Coordinators.

The settlement date of the New Convertible Bonds is expected to be on or around 30 March, 2021. Application for the listing and trading of the New Convertible Bonds on SIX Swiss Exchange will be made at a later stage.
