BAIN CAPITAL HAS ANNOUNCED NOT TO PROCEED WITH A VOLUNTARY AND CONDITIONAL PUBLIC TENDER OFFER FOR THE SHARES AND WARRANTS OF RESILUX

Wetteren, Belgium - 28 March 2017

Resilux today confirms that Bain Capital Europe Fund IV, L.P. ("Bain Capital") has announced that its indirect subsidiary Raven Bidco 2 S.à.r.l. is not proceeding with a voluntary and conditional public tender offer in cash for all shares and warrants issued by Resilux NV ("Resilux") (Euronext Brussels: RES), as initially announced on 3 February 2017.

Resilux notes, as set out in Bain Capital's press release of 28 March 2017, that Bain Capital has made the decision not to proceed with a public tender offer for all shares and warrants issued by Resilux because Bain Capital has been notified by the German anti-trust authority that the intended combined acquisition of Resilux and Petainer has not received clearance in Phase I and would need to proceed to a Phase II review, which would make such combined acquisition difficult to pursue in the context of the required timeline for a delisting process of Resilux.

Resilux notes, as set out in Bain Capital's press release of 28 March 2017, that the decision of Bain Capital not to pursue the acquisition of Resilux does not reflect any change in opinion on the strengths of either Resilux or Petainer, nor that it is the result of adverse due diligence findings.
