03 Nov 2022 23:45 CET

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION OR RELEASE, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, IN
OR INTO THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA (INCLUDING ITS TERRITORIES AND POSSESSIONS,
ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AND THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA) (THE
"UNITED STATES"), AUSTRALIA, CANADA, THE HONG KONG SPECIAL ADMINISTRATIVE REGION
OF THE PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF CHINA OR JAPAN, OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION IN WHICH
THE DISTRIBUTION OR RELEASE WOULD BE UNLAWFUL.

Reference is made to KMC Properties ASA's ("KMC Properties" or the "Company")
announcement on 3 November 2022 regarding the launch of an underwritten private
placement of new shares in the Company. The Company is pleased to announce that
it has raised NOK 300 million in gross proceeds through the placement of
37,500,000 new shares (the "Offer Shares") at a price per new share of NOK 8.00
(the "Offer Price").

The Private Placement took place as an accelerated bookbuilding process managed
by Carnegie AS, DNB Markets, a part of DNB Bank ASA, and Pareto Securities AS
(together, the "Managers").

The net proceeds from the Private Placement will be used in connection with
several projects across three different asset categories: (i) Capex: The Company
has several income generating capex projects amounting to a gross amount of
approx. NOK 12 million; (ii) Greenfield projects: The Company has two greenfield
projects, a packaging hub for BEWI ASA at Hitra, Norway and a salmon
slaughterhouse for Slakteriet AS, amounting to a total amount of approx. NOK 865
million, out of which the Company is only obligated to complete the packaging
hub for BEWI ASA, amounting to NOK 200 million in committed investments; and
(iii) the BEWI portfolio: The Company has entered into an agreement with BEWI
ASA for the acquisition of up to 24 properties and one land plot (the "BEWI
Portfolio") with a gross asset value of up to approx. NOK 2.0 billion, out of
which the Company is under an obligation to acquire the Norwegian and Swedish
assets in the BEWI Portfolio (valued at approx. NOK 940 million).

Completion of the Private Placement and the issuance of the Offer Shares were
resolved by the Company's board of directors (the "Board") pursuant to an
authorisation granted by the Company's ordinary general meeting on 1 June 2022.
Notification of allocation, including settlement instructions are expected to be
distributed by the Managers on or about 4 November 2022, with settlement on a
delivery versus payment (DVP) basis on or about 9 November 2022, following the
share capital increase pertaining to the Offer Shares being registered with the
Norwegian Register of Business Enterprises. First day of trading of the Offer
Shares on Oslo Børs is expected to be on 9 November 2022.
Following registration of the share capital increase pertaining to the Offer
Shares, the Company will have 322,143,649 shares outstanding, each with a par
value of NOK 0.20.

The following close associates of primary insiders in the Company were allocated
Offer Shares in the Private Placement:

BEWI Invest AS, the largest shareholder and close associate of board member and
primary insider Stig Wærnes, was allocated 19,210,698 Offer Shares;

Kastor Invest AS, a close associate of board member and primary insider John
Thoresen, was allocated 2,142,857 Offer Shares; and

Banan II AS, a close associate of board member and primary insider Nini
Nergaard, was allocated 342,857 Offer Shares.

Please refer to the attached notifications of trading for further details.

Certain existing and new shareholders in the Company had under a subscription
and underwriting agreement entered into on 30 June 2022, as amended (the "UWA")
pre-committed to subscribe for a total aggregate of amount of approx. NOK 248.9
million in the Private Placement. The portion of the Private Placement that had
not been pre-committed was fully underwritten at the Offer Price. The
pre-committing investors and underwriters have also pre-committed to subscribe
and underwritten, respectively, an amount equal to 1/6 of the amount of their
respective pre-commitment and underwriting in the Private Placement in
connection with a potential private placement of 6,250,000 new shares in the
Company as further described in the Company's announcement on 3 November 2022
regarding the launch of the Private Placement.

The underwriters and the pre-committed shareholders will receive a 4 per cent
underwriting commission based on the sum of their commitment (i.e. a total of
NOK 350 million). The Company's obligation to pay the underwriting commission
will be settled by issuance of 1,750,000 new at the Offer Price.

The Private Placement represents a deviation from the shareholders' pre-emptive
right to subscribe for and being allocated the Offer Shares. The Board has
considered the Private Placement in light of the equal treatment obligations
under the Norwegian Public Limited Companies Act, the Norwegian Securities
Trading Act, the rules on equal treatment under Oslo Rule Book II for companies
listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange and the Oslo Stock Exchange's Guidelines on
the rule of equal treatment, and deems that the proposed Private Placement is in
compliance with these obligations. The Board is of the view that it will be in
the common interest of the Company and its shareholders that the Company raises
equity through a private placement at the current terms, in particularly in
light of the prevailing market conditions and the Company's need to finance the
Property Transaction. By structuring the equity raise as a private placement,
the Company has been able to raise equity efficiently, with a premium to the
current trading price. Investors seeking to acquire shares at or below the Offer
Price have had the opportunity to do so for a period of time following
announcement of the main terms of the transaction. The Board has on this basis
resolved not to conduct a subsequent repair offering directed towards
shareholders who did not participate in the Private Placement.

Advokatfirmaet Thommessen AS is acting as legal advisor to the Company in
connection with the Private Placement.
