Price
The Offer Consideration is USD $26.00 per Share. The Offer Consideration is in USD. If you are a nominee or directly registered Euroclear account owner, you will receive the payment to your cash account that is linked to your securities account. If the receiving account is a normal SEK account or is otherwise not eligible to receive funds in USD, the Offer Consideration will be subject to an automatic currency exchange from USD to SEK. If you are a nominee or directly registered Euroclear account owner who wishes to receive the Offer Consideration in USD and avoid the automatic currency exchange, you must have a USD-eligible account, and you should contact DNB Markets, a part of DNB Bank ASA, Sweden Branch (“DNB Markets”), at emissioner@dnb.se or +46 8 473 45 50 for further details.

Period of action
The initial acceptance period (the “Offer Period”) will continue until 6:00 pm, New York Time, on 30 November 2023 (the “Expiration Time”), unless the Offer is extended or earlier terminated. An extension to the Offer Period, or any other change to the terms and conditions affecting the shareholders submission of an Acceptance Form or receipt of Offer Consideration, will separately be announced.

If you hold your Shares registered in the name of a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee, you should be aware that such institutions may establish their own, earlier, deadline for tendering such Shares in the Offer. Please consult with your broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee and follow the instructions regarding, among other things, where to send the Acceptance Form and when it must be delivered to give sufficient time to permit such nominee to tender your Shares by the Expiration Time.
