Nabaltec AG to issue corporate bond with a volume of up to EUR 30 million

  - Bearer bond with a yield of 6.50% p. a.

  - Creditreform Investment Grade rating of BBB- 

Schwandorf, 5 October 2010 - Nabaltec AG (ISIN: DE000A0KPPR7), one of the
leading companies in the chemical industry, will be launching its first
corporate bond issue. With a term of five years, a fixed yield of 6.50
percent per year and a minimum investment of EUR 1,000, this 'Nabaltec
Hightec bond' is designed for private as well as institutional investors.
'With our Hightec bond, investors will be able to attain secure returns as
well as benefiting from our experience and innovativeness, since demand for
eco-friendly flame retardant products is growing steadily,' said Johannes
Heckmann, a Management Board member of Nabaltec AG. Nabaltec AG's bond
issue is to serve primarily to finance investments in expanding production
capacity for existing, high value-added product groups and to build new
capacity for newly launched products. The issue volume will be up to EUR 30
million.

Bonds can be purchased from the company directly as of 5 October. Nabaltec
will offer a Bond Information Center, which will provide detailed
information about the bond issue and the purchase process. Investors can
also purchase the bonds through the Bondm (mid-cap) segment of the
Stuttgart Stock Exchange. The listing of the bonds in that segment is an
expression of confidence in Nabaltec's financial soundness and earning
power, and this confidence is confirmed by Creditreform's Investment Grade
rating BBB-.
