Brain+ A/S (“Brain+”) announces that six of the company’s largest shareholders, including seasoned life science investors, have so far committed to exercise warrants of series TO 2, corresponding to 28% of the total outstanding and DKK 1.6 million. In addition, CEO & co-founder Kim Baden-Kristensen, CFO and former board member Hanne Leth Hillman, as well as Chairman of the board Anders Härfstrand and board member Johan Luthman have doubled their previously announced commitment to DKK 0.4 million.
Six of the company’s largest shareholders, which include seasoned life-science investors from both Denmark and Sweden, who participated in the unit rights issue in May 2023, have pledged to exercise a combined 8.3 million warrants of series TO 2 to subscribe for new shares in Brain+.
The combined continued commitment from these investors secures the company approximately DKK 1.6 million in gross proceeds, corresponding to 28% of the maximum. Several of the commitments come from investors, who have been shareholders in Brain+ since the company’s initial public offering in October 2021. The rest comes from investors who have become shareholders over the past 12 months, including a significant contribution from John Haurum, a seasoned international Life Science entrepreneur and executive with international experience and several highly successful corporate ventures behind him.
Furthermore, members of the board and management have today jointly undertaken, in addition to their previously announced commitment to exercise all their warrants of series TO 2 (see Company Announcement from 2 October 2023), to subscribe for an additional approximately 1.0 million shares in Brain in the form of guarantee commitments of DKK 0.2 million. The guarantee commitment will be activated if not all warrants are exercised in the ongoing TO 2 warrant exercise. Should the guarantee commitments be activated, the company will make a directed share issue to the parties who gave the guarantee commitments at a subscription price equal to the exercise price of the warrants.
