Resolution to approve the Board of Directors’ resolution to issue a secured rights issue

The EGM resolved, in accordance with the proposal by the Board of Directors, to approve the Board of Directors’ resolution to issue a rights issue (Sw. företrädesemission) (the “Rights Issue”). The new shares and warrants in the rights issue shall be issued in units each consisting of one (1) new share and one (1) new warrant. No more than 9 478 992 units shall be issued in total. The subscription price amounts to SEK 3.20 per unit, which means that Bioservo, in the case of full subscription in the Rights Issue, will initially receive approximately SEK 30.3 million before issuing costs, and additional capital contribution that can arise from the exercise of warrants can amount to a maximum of approximately SEK 30.3 million before issuing costs.

Subscription of units with the support of unit rights must take place by simultaneous cash payment, during the period from and including September 26, 2022 to and including October 10, 2022. Subscription of Units without the support of unit rights must take place on a separate application form, during the period from and including September 26, 2022 to and including October 10, 2022. Trading in unit rights is expected to take place on the Nasdaq First North Growth Market during the period from and including September 26 to and including October 5, 2022.

Two (2) warrants give the right to subscribe for one (1) new share in the Company during the period from and including September 4, 2023 to and including September 18, 2023 at an exercise price corresponding to seventy (70) percent of the volume-weighted average price of the Company's share during the period from and including August 21, 2023 to and including September 1, 2023, however to a minimum of SEK 3.20 and a maximum of SEK 6.40 per share.

Complete terms and instructions in the Rights Issue as well as other information about the Company will be made available in the EU growth prospectus (Sw. EU-tillväxtprospekt) which is expected to be published around September 21, 2022.

Resolution to authorise the Board of Directors to resolve on new shares issue

The EGM resolved, in accordance with the proposal by the Board of Directors, to authorise the Board of Directors, for the period until the end of the next annual general meeting, on one or more occasions, with deviation from the shareholders' pre-emptive right, which may be made with provisions regarding contribution in cash, in kind or through set-off, or other conditions, decide on issue of new shares to the guarantors in the Rights Issue. 

The purpose of the authorisation and the reason for the deviation from the shareholders' pre-emption right, is to be able to issue shares as guarantee commission to the guarantors. The number of shares that can be issued with the support of the authorisation may in total not exceed the total number of shares that corresponds to the agreed guarantee commission that Bioservo has to issue to the guarantors.

For more detailed information regarding the content of the resolutions, please refer to the notice to the EGM and to the complete proposals which have been published and are available on the Company's website.
