30.10.2025 08:00:00 CET | Vend Marketplaces ASA | Additional regulated information required to be disclosed under the laws of a member state

Reference is made to the stock exchange announcement made by Vend Marketplaces ASA ("Vend" or the "Company") on 27 October 2025 regarding the board approval of a share issue following the removal of the Company's dual-class structure (the "Share Issue"). The subscription period will commence today.

Allocation of subscription rights:

• Each holder of A shares in the Company as of 27 October 2025, as registered in the Norwegian Central Securities Depository (the "VPS") on 29 October 2025 (the "Record Date"), have been granted subscription rights (the "Subscription Rights"). The Subscription Rights gives a right to subscribe for new shares in the Company at par value (NOK 0.50).
• Each holder of A-shares has been granted one (1) Subscription Right for every A share registered as held in the Company on the Record Date. The Subscription Rights gives the right to subscribe for, and be allocated, one (1) new share in Vend for every 15.45 Subscription Rights held at the end of the subscription period. Over-subscription and subscription without Subscription Rights will not be permitted.
• The exercise of subscription rights and subscription for new shares to shareholders residing in countries other than Norway may be affected by securities laws in such countries. Shareholders who have their shares registered in securities accounts with registered addresses in certain ineligible jurisdictions, such as Australia, Canada, Hong Kong, Japan, New Zealand, Singapore, Switzerland and the United States or any other jurisdiction where participation in the Share Issue would require the publication of a prospectus, registration or other regulatory approval (the "Ineligible Jurisdictions" and such shareholders in or resident in Ineligible Jurisdictions, "Ineligible Holders") will not be permitted to exercise subscription rights and subscribe for new shares. The crediting of subscription rights to an account of an Ineligible Holder does not constitute an offer to such holder of the new shares. The Company has arranged for Danske Bank A/S to facilitate the sale of shares that would otherwise have been allocated to Ineligible Holders or holders who have not subscribed for shares during the subscription period. See more information below under the section "Sale of unsubscribed shares".

The subscription period for the Share Issue will commence today at 09:00 hours (CET) on 30 October 2025 and end at 16:30 hours (CET) on 13 November 2025.

Sale of unsubscribed shares:

Danske Bank A/S NUF has committed to subscribe for any New Shares that are underlying Subscription Rights held by Ineligible Holders or that have otherwise not been subscribed for during the Subscription Period. Danske Bank A/S NUF will sell such New Shares, and the net proceeds of such sale will be distributed to holders of Subscription Rights who are Ineligible Holders or who have not exercised their rights during the Subscription Period. No payments will be made to shareholders for amounts below NOK 50.

The Subscription Rights will have economic value if the Company's shares trade above the subscription price for the New Shares (NOK 0.50) during the Subscription Period. Ineligible Holders and others who do not use their Subscription Rights will experience a dilution of their shareholding in the Company but will receive monetary compensation from the sale of shares facilitated by Danske Bank A/S NUF.

The subscription price is NOK 0.50 for each new share.

The new Shares are expected to be tradable on the Oslo Stock Exchange from and including 24 November 2025.
