Stabilisation and over-allotment option notice
NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION OR RELEASE, DIRECTLY OR
INDIRECTLY, IN OR INTO THE UNITED STATES, CANADA,
AUSTRALIA, HONG KONG OR JAPAN OR ANY OTHER
JURISDICTION IN WHICH THE DISTRIBUTION OR RELEASE
WOULD BE UNLAWFUL
Reference is made to stock exchange notice of 1
October 2014, in which Scatec Solar ASA ("Scatec
Solar" or the "Company", OSE ticker: SSO) announced
the completion of the bookbuilding period for its
initial public offering on the Oslo Stock Exchange
(the "Offering").
Carnegie AS (the "Stabilisation Manager"), on behalf
of the Joint Bookrunners, may engage in stabilisation
activities in the shares of Scatec Solar from the
opening of trading on the Oslo Stock Exchange on 2
October 2014 until the close of trading on 31 October
2014 (the "Stabilisation Period"). The stabilisation
transactions are aimed to support the market price of
the shares of Scatec Solar.
In connection with the Offering, the Joint
Bookrunners have over-allotted to the applicants in
the Offering 5,447,368 shares in the Company, which
equals approximately 15% of the number of shares sold
in the Offering before over-allotments. In order to
permit the delivery in respect of over allotments
made, the Stabilisation Manager has, on behalf of the
Joint Bookrunners, borrowed a number of shares in the
Company equal to the number of over-allotted shares
from Scatec Invest AS, Scatec Solar Ansatte AS and
ITOCHU Corporation.
Furthermore, the abovementioned shareholders have
granted the Stabilisation Manager an over-allotment
option (the "Over-Allotment Option") pursuant to
which the Stabilisation Manager may purchase up to
5,447,368 existing shares in Scatec Solar at a price
per share of NOK 19.00, which is equal to the offer
price in the Offering (the "Offer Price"). The Over-
Allotment Option may be exercised at any time, and
from time to time, within the Stabilisation Period.
The Stabilisation Manager may close out the short
position created by over-allotting shares by buying
shares in the open market through stabilisation
activities and/or by exercising the Over-Allotment
Option.
The Stabilisation Manager (or persons acting on
behalf of the Stabilisation Manager) may effect
transactions that stabilise or maintain the price of
the shares of Scatec Solar at a level higher than
that which might otherwise prevail, by buying shares
in Scatec Solar in the open market at prices equal to
or lower than (but not above) the Offer Price.
However, there is no obligation on the Stabilisation
Manager (or any person acting on behalf of the
Stabilisation Manager) to do so. Moreover, there is
no assurance that the Stabilisation Manager (or
persons acting on behalf of the Stabilisation
Manager) will undertake stabilisation activities. If
stabilisation activities are undertaken they may be
stopped at any time, and must be brought to an end
upon or before expiry of the Stabilisation Period.
Within one week after the end of the Stabilisation
Period, the Stabilisation Manager and the Company
will jointly publish a statement through the
information system of the Oslo Stock Exchange under
the Company's ticker with information as to whether
or not any stabilisation activities have been
undertaken, including the date at which stabilisation
started, the date at which stabilisation last
occurred, and the price range within which
stabilisation was carried out for each of the dates
during which stabilisation transactions were carried
out.
Any stabilisation activities will be conducted in
accordance with section 3-12 of the Norwegian
Securities Trading Act and Commission Regulation (EC)
No. 2273/2003 implementing Directive 2003/6/EC of the
European Parliament and of the Council as regards
exemptions for buy-back programmes and stabilisation
of financial instruments.
For further details, please refer to the prospectus
dated 12 September 2014 and the supplementary
prospectus dated 28 September 2014 issued by Scatec
Solar in connection with the Offering and the listing
of the Company's shares on the Oslo Stock Exchange.
