The Revised Offer

Consideration

The shareholders of Sensidose are offered SEK 8.40 in cash per share in Sensidose.

If Sensidose, prior to the settlement of the Revised Offer, distribute dividends or in any other way distribute or transfer value to its shareholders, the consideration in the Revised Offer will be adjusted accordingly. The foregoing will also apply to such dividends or other value transfers which occur after settlement with regard to any shares not yet acquired by EQL Pharma in time for EQL Pharma to be the recipient of such distributions.

No commission will be charged in respect of the settlement of the Sensidose shares tendered to EQL Pharma under the Revised Offer.

Warrants in Sensidose

Certain employees hold warrants in Sensidose issued within three incentive programs, series 2019/2023, series 2021/2025 and series 2022/2026. Such financial instruments are excluded from the Revised Offer. However, EQL Pharma will procure that the owners of such warrants in Sensidose will receive reasonable treatment.

In addition to the above, Sensidose has issued 2,265,000 warrants of series TO 1, entitling to subscription of a total of 2,265,000 new shares in Sensidose during the period 1 June 2023 up to and including 15 June 2023, at a subscription price of SEK 9.00 per share.

The warrants of series TO 1 are listed on the Spotlight Stock Market (ticker code: "SENSI TO 1"). Taking into account the aggregate value of the outstanding warrants of series TO 1, which is deemed to be negligible in light of both a see-through valuation and a valuation taking into account a time value (according to the Black & Scholes formula), such financial instruments are excluded from the Revised Offer in accordance with the Takeover rules for certain trading platforms (the "Takeover Rules").

• 5 percent compared to the share price SEK 8 offered by Navamedic ASA on 22 April 2023;

• 117 percent compared to the volume-weighted average trading price of SEK 3.86 during the last 30 trading days prior to the bid offered by Navamedic ASA^[3]; and

• 132 percent compared to the volume-weighted average trading price of SEK 3.62 during the last 90 trading days prior to the bid offered by Navamedic ASA^[4].
