The Issue
STENOCARE A/S (“Stenocare” or “the Company”) completed a rights issue of units (“Unit Rights Issue” or “the Issue”) in May/June 2023. In connection with the Issue, a total of 1,167,612 warrants of series TO1 (“Warrants” or “the Warrants”) were issued. Following the Issue, Stenocare converted 5.0 mDKK worth of debt into units on the same terms as those that applied in the Unit Rights Issue. This conversion resulted in the issuance of 545,387 warrants of series TO1. In total, the Company has issued 1,712,999 warrants of series TO1. Each Warrant gives the holder the right to subscribe for one new share in Stenocare. For the Warrants not to expire without value, it is required that the warrant holder actively exercises the warrants no later than 19 December 2023, 5.00 PM (CET), or sells the Warrants no later than 15 December 2023, 5.00 PM. Please note that custodian banks might have different deadlines than the official exercise period.

The amendments
On 29 November 2023, Stenocare announced amended terms for its upcoming warrants of series TO1 and TO2. The modifications for the series TO1 warrants included the removal of the minimum and maximum price, previously set at a minimum of 3.21 DKK and a maximum of 6.70 DKK. Additionally, the exercise period was revised from the original schedule of 1 December 2023 to 14 December 2023, to a new timeframe of 6 December 2023 to 19 December 2023. Consequently, the pricing period has also been adjusted. While it remains a 10-day volume-weighted average price (VWAP) of the Company’s shares on the Nasdaq First North Growth Market prior to the first day of the exercise period, the exercise price is now calculated using the VWAP from 22 November 2023 to 5 December 2023, with a 30% discount.
The compensation
Following the amendments, Stenocare is offering compensation to warrant holders who meet all the following criteria:
- The warrant holder must have sold warrants of TO1 between 20 June 2023, 9.00 AM (CEST) and 29 November 2023, 4.41 PM (CET) and provide bank documentation of the sale(s).
- The warrant holder must have purchased warrants of TO1 between 29 November 2023, 4.42 PM (CET) and 15 December 2023, 5.00 PM (CET) and provide bank documentation of the purchase(s).
- Compensation is only given if the warrant holder has realized a loss (ie. purchase price minus sold price)
- The warrant holder must have exercised warrants of series TO1 between 6 December 2023, 9.00 AM (CET) and 19 December 2023, 5.00 PM (CET) and provide bank documentation of the exercise.
- The warrant holder will be compensated for the difference between the sold amount and the purchased amount. Compensation is only given up to the maximum units of TO1 warrants sold before 29 Nov, 4,41 PM.
- The warrant holder cannot be compensated for a higher number of warrants of series TO1 than what has been exercised.
- Warrant holders must exercise warrants of series TO1 to be eligible for compensation.
After the exercise period ends, warrant holders who fulfill these requirements for compensation must send a request to [email protected] with documentation proving their eligibility for compensation and the final compensation amount. Stenocare will process these compensation requests after the exercise period and expects to finalize them in January 2024.
