The shareholder Alden AS (the “Shareholder”) proposes that the company raises a convertible loan of a nominal amount not exceeding SEK 37,042,807 through a private placement of convertible loan bonds, resulting in an increase in share capital of up to 3 SEK 053,772.70 upon full conversion of the loan bonds.

In view of the foregoing, the shareholder considered that a directed issue of convertible bonds on the proposed terms is the most advantageous for the company and its shareholders, in particular taking into account the company’s need for immediate financing to pay off outstanding debts and to pursue business expansion.

Consequently, the Shareholder considers that the conditions of the issue of the convertible bonds are in line with market conditions.

- Payment for the issue of convertible bonds subscribed will be made in cash or by offsetting.
