subscription price per share of NOK 0.10 and no consideration for the warrant.
Each warrant holder may exercise all or some of its warrants in the period
beginning on 3 March 2025 and ending on 14 March 2025. Exercise shall be carried
out by written notice, which shall be received by the Company within the
abovementioned exercise period. The subscription price upon exercise of the
warrants is NOK 0.10.
Out of the maximum number of new shares to be issued in the rights issue, a
maximum of 122 010 100 new shares will be issued to the part of the
shareholder based which trades shares in Norway through Euronext Securities Oslo
(VPS) (the "Norwegian Offering"), and a maximum of 275 203 276 new shares will
be issued to the part of the shareholder based which trades shares in Sweden
through Euroclear Sweden AB (the "Swedish Offering"). The split is based on the
relationship between the trade in the two countries as per the end of 7 November
2024, and there will from and including 7 November 2024 temporarily be imposed a
block for repositioning of trading in the shares in the Company between the two
systems until and including the record date in the Rights Issue.
In the Swedish Offering, the subscription price of NOK 0.10 shall be settled in
SEK, and will be fixed at SEK 0.10, based on the European Central Bank's
published exchange rate on 7 November 2024. According to the Norwegian Private
Limited Liability Companies Act (the "NPLCA") regulations, settlements in a
currency other than NOK are considered as an in-kind contribution, and the Board
has in this respect prepared a statement in accordance with the NPLCA Section 2
-6, cf. Section 10-2, which will be confirmed by the Company's auditor, BDO AS.
