STATEMENT ON THE PUBLICATION OF AN EXAMINATION ORDER BY BAFIN DATED JULY 15, 2022

Potsdam, July 19, 2022 - On July 15, 2022, BaFin published an examination order against
DKR for the disclosed separate financial statements according to international accounting
standards as of September 30, 2021 and the related management report.

The reason for the BaFin order is the accounting treatment of loan agreements with a
shareholder and the accounting treatment of loans acquired via a fintech in the Company's
IFRS separate financial statements as of September 30, 2021, which, in the opinion of BaFin,
may not be fully and correctly recognized and reflected.

DKR comments on this as follows:

The matters to be examined by BaFin relate to short-term investments of liquid funds with the
main shareholder Obotritia Capital KGaA, Potsdam, and via Creditshelf AG, Frankfurt, which
DKR has used to date to invest surplus liquidity from property sales, refinancing and current
cash flow on a temporary and interest-bearing basis if the current real estate acquisition
pipeline does not contain any currently attractive acquisition targets.

In the opinion of DKR, the loan receivables were accounted for and presented in the relevant
financial statements in accordance with the applicable accounting standards. Furthermore,
comprehensive and transparent disclosures were made in the notes to the financial
statements on an ongoing basis. In this connection, the Company also refers to the audited
annual financial statements of the Company, which have been issued with unqualified audit
opinions.

DKR is in communication with BaFin and cooperates fully in this regard.
