Cyviz AS: Private Placement successfully completed

Oslo, 10 December 2020. Reference is made to the announcement from Cyviz AS ("Cyviz" or the "Company"), a leading provider of advanced digital collaboration solutions, published on 8 December 2020 regarding a contemplated private placement of new shares in the Company. The Company announces today that it has raised NOK 65 million in gross proceeds through a private placement (the "Private Placement") through the issuance of 1,884,058 new shares in the Company (the "Offer Shares"), at a price per Offer Share of NOK 34.50. The Private Placement took place through a bookbuilding process managed by Carnegie AS and DNB Markets, a part of DNB Bank ASA, as Joint Bookrunners (together the "Managers").

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Private Placement to further develop the technology and product portfolio, ramp-up of sales coverage and several other growth initiatives, as well as general corporate purposes.

The Private Placement is expected to fully fund the Company’s business plan consisting of multiple initiatives to drive growth and profitability, and further leverage the strong market tail-winds for digital collaboration. Building on a competent international team and a strong technology platform validated by a global blue-chip customer base, the ambition of the Company is to continue strengthening its position as a globally leading provider of advanced collaboration solutions.

Notification of allocation and payment instructions is expected to be submitted to the applicants on or about 11 December 2020 by the Managers. The Offer Shares allocated in the Private Placement will be settled through a normal delivery-versus-payment transaction on or about 18 December 2020. The delivery-versus-payment settlement in the Private Placement is facilitated by a pre-funding agreement between the Company and the Managers.

Following completion of the Private Placement and the settlement-in-kind of the Company's convertible loan and the bridge loan, and the exercise of all warrants attached to such loans (as further described below), the Company will have 11,735,597 shares outstanding, each with a par value of NOK 1.10.

The Company, members of management and shareholders represented on the board of directors, as well as certain other existing large shareholders have (subject to certain exemptions) entered into customary lock-up arrangements with the Managers related to their shares with a lock-up period of 12 months for the Company and members of the management and 6 months for shareholders represented on the board of directors and certain other large shareholders.

Cyviz has applied for, and will, subject to the necessary approvals from the Oslo Stock Exchange, admit the shares of the Company on Euronext Growth Oslo (the “Admission”). The first day of trading on Euronext Growth Oslo is expected to be on or about 18 December 2020.

Completion of the Private Placement is conditional upon (i) all necessary corporate resolutions for consummating the Private Placement being validly made by the Company, including without limitation relevant approvals and resolutions by the Board of Directors and the Company's extraordinary general meeting to be held on 15 December 2020 (the “EGM”), (ii) acceptances of the proposed settlement-in-kind of the Company's NOK 44.9 million convertible loan and NOK 38.0 million bridge loan by the lenders therein, and the EGM's approval of the share conversions, (iii) the Company having applied for Admission to trading of the Company's shares on Euronext Growth Oslo, and (iv) the Offer Shares having been validly issued (by registration of the share capital increase pertaining to the issuance of the Offer Shares in the Norwegian Register of Business Enterprises) and delivered in the VPS.
