Komplett ASA: Resolution to increase the share capital in connection with the subsequent offering

Komplett ASA: Resolution to increase the share capital in connection with the subsequent offering

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION OR RELEASE, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, IN

OR INTO THE UNITED STATES, AUSTRALIA, CANADA, HONG KONG OR JAPAN, OR ANY OTHER

JURISDICTION IN WHICH THE DISTRIBUTION OR RELEASE WOULD BE UNLAWFUL. THIS

ANNOUNCEMENT DOES NOT CONSTITUTE AN OFFER OF ANY OF THE SECURITIES DESCRIBED

HEREIN.

Sandefjord/Oslo, 4 January 2023: Reference is made to the stock exchange

announcement made by Komplett ASA (the "Company") on 15 November 2022 regarding

the successful placing of a private placement in the Company raising gross

proceeds of NOK 1,000,050,000 (the "Private Placement") and the potential

subsequent offering of up to 3,390,000 new shares (the "Subsequent Offering"),

as well as the stock exchange announcement made on 8 December 2022 where the

Company among other announced that the general meeting had resolved to grant the

board of directors an authorization to increase the Company's share capital by

up to NOK 1,356,000, by the issuance of up to 3,390,000 new shares, each with a

nominal value of NOK 0.40, in connection with the Subsequent Offering.

In accordance with the authorization granted by the extraordinary general

meeting 8 December 2022, the board of directors has today resolved to increase

the share capital by a minimum of NOK 0.40 and a maximum of NOK 1,356,000,

through the issuance of a minimum of 1 new share and a maximum of 3,390,000 new

shares, each with a nominal value of NOK 0.40 and with a subscription price of

NOK 14.75.

Thus, the board of directors has today resolved to carry out the Subsequent

Offering. The resolution is conditional on the Norwegian Financial Supervisory

Authority's ("NFSA") approval of a prospectus prepared for (i) the listing on

Oslo Stock Exchange of unlisted shares issued in connection with the Private

Placement and (ii) the offering and listing of new shares in connection with the

Subsequent Offering (the "Prospectus"). It is expected that the Prospectus will

be approved by the NFSA later today, on or about 4 January 2023, and that the

subscription period in the Subsequent Offering will commence at 09:00 hours

(CET) on 6 January 2023 and end at 16:30 hours (CET) on 20 January 2023.

Shareholders of the Company as of 15 November 2022, as registered as such in the

Company's shareholders register in Euronext Securities Oslo, the Norwegian

Central Securities Depository (the "CSD") on 17 November 2022 (the "Record

Date") who (i) were not allocated shares in the Private Placement and (ii) are

not resident in a jurisdiction where the Subsequent Offering would be unlawful

or would (in jurisdictions other than Norway and Sweden) require a prospectus,

registration document or similar action (such eligible shareholders jointly the

"Eligible Shareholders"), will be granted one (1) non-transferable subscription

right ("Subscription Right") for every 4.5956 existing shares registered as held

by such Eligible Shareholder in the CSD as at the Record Date, rounded down to

the nearest whole Subscription Right. Each Subscription Right gives, subject to

applicable law, the right to subscribe for, and be allocated, one (1) new share

in the Subsequent Offering at the subscription price. Over-subscription will,

other than for primary insiders of the Company, be allowed for Eligible

Shareholders. Subscription without subscription rights will be prohibited.

Allocation of the new shares in the Subsequent Offering is expected to take

place on or about 24 January 2023, and the new shares are expected to be

delivered on or about 31 January 2023. Further information regarding the

Subsequent Offering is set out in the Prospectus.

ABG Sundal Collier ASA, Carnegie AS, Nordea Bank Abp, filial i Norge and

Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken AB (publ), Oslo branch are acting as managers in

the Subsequent Offering. Advokatfirmaet Thommessen AS is acting as legal advisor

to Komplett in relation to the Subsequent Offering.
