HIDDN: Securing private placement of NOK 20 million

HIDDN: Securing private placement of NOK 20 million

Oslo, 21 December 2018. Hiddn Solutions ASA ("Hiddn" or the "Company", OSE:

HIDDN) has today secured commitment from certain existing shareholders and new

investors (the "Undertakers") for a private placement of NOK 20 million.

The Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") is of the opinion that this

private placement together with other sources of financing, will cover the

financing needs for the next twelve months.

The Undertakers have unconditionally and irrevocably undertaken to, on the terms

and subject to the conditions set forth in an undertaking agreement, to

subscribe for a number of new shares in a private placement corresponding to an

amount of NOK 20 million.

The subscription price in the private placement will be determined at the date

of the Board's resolution to consummate the private placement and issue the new

shares, and will be equal to the volume-weighted average price for the Company's

shares on the Oslo Stock Exchange during the five days prior to the date of the

Board's resolution, less 20% of this price (the "Subscription Price"), however,

limited to NOK 1.14 (the "Maximum Subscription Price").

The Maximum Subscription Price represents the volume-weighted average price for

the Company's shares on the Oslo Stock Exchange during the five days prior to

and including 19 December, less 20%. The Subscription Price will not in any

event be lower than the nominal value of each of the Company's shares of NOK

0.34.

For the avoidance of doubt, the private placement and the Undertakers'

undertaking are not conditioned upon completion of the potential acquisition of

Tactilis Pte Limited by the Company under the non-binding LOI as announced by

the Company on 12 December 2018 (the "Transaction").

In the event the Board resolves to carry out a private placement as set out

above, the Board will also consider to carry out a subsequent offering of up to

NOK 5 million in new shares in the Company directed towards shareholders in the

Company who were not invited to participate, or applied for, but were not

allocated shares in the private placement.

Should the private placement be carried out at the Maximum Subscription Price,

this will result in issuance of a total of 17,543,859 new shares in the Company,

representing approximately 19% of the current issued share capital of the

Company.

The following primary insiders of the Company has participated in the

undertaking and will, subject to the Board resolving to carry out the private

placement, subscribe for and be allocated new shares in the Company:
