Agilyx Share Split Prior to Listing on Merkur Market, part of Oslo Stock Exchange

Advanced Chemical Recycling Technology is Making Plastics More Circular

OSLO, Norway, September 29, 2020 – Reference is made to the successfully completed private placement of 167,353 new shares in Agilyx AS ("Agilyx", or the "Company"), raising gross proceeds of approximately NOK 300 million (the "Private Placement"). In conjunction with the Private Placement and as part of the Company's preparations for trading on Merkur Market, a multilateral trading facility operated by the Oslo Stock Exchange, under the ticker symbol AGLX-ME, the Company has carried out a share split in the ratio of 1:100. The share split will be effectuated in the VPS today, and consequently 16,735,300 new shares will be delivered to subscribers in the Private Placement and will be available for trading tomorrow, September 30, 2020. As a result of the Private Placement and the share split, the Company's share capital is NOK 727,055, divided into 72,705,500 shares, each with a nominal value of NOK 0.01.

The Company's shares are expected to be admitted to trading on Merkur Market tomorrow, 30 September 2020.

Over the last 16 years Agilyx has, through extensive research and commercial operations, developed leading industry technology and know-how to make plastics a true circular resource.

Managing plastic waste is a global and immediate challenge. Today barely 10 percent of the world's plastic waste is recycled, while the rest goes to landfills, or worse, our waterways and oceans. With Agilyx's chemical recycling technology and intelligent feedstock management system, mixed plastics now can be converted to new virgin-equivalent plastics, as well as chemical products and fuels – creating the opportunity for true circularity.
