[Stockholm, 18 September 2009] - SinterCast has successfully completed a pre-emptive rights issue of shares and warrants (collectively referred to as 'Units'), resulting in a cash injection of SEK 23.1 million, prior to transaction costs. The participation in the rights issue was very strong, with 863,293 Units being subscribed to via the exercise of unit rights, corresponding to 93.3% of the total number of Units available. An additional 741,464 Units were subscribed for without pre-emptive rights, corresponding to 80.1% of the total number of Units. Accordingly, a total of 173.4% of the total number of Units were subscribed to during the rights issue subscription period that ended on 14 September 2009.

The fully subscribed rights issue initially increases the number of shares by 925,483, resulting in a new total number of SinterCast shares of 6,478,383 – an increase of 16.7%. Likewise, the share capital has increased by SEK 925,483 to a total of SEK 6,478,383. In the event that the associated warrants are exercised, during the period 1-30 September 2010 at a price of SEK 25 per warrant, the number of shares will increase by a further 462,741 shares and the share capital will likewise increase by SEK 462,741. Full exercise of the warrants in September 2010 will result in an additional cash injection of SEK 11.6 million, prior to transaction costs. Every two warrants entitle the holder to subscribe to one share.

Individuals who have subscribed to Units without pre-emptive rights will be allocated Units in accordance with the principles defined in the Prospectus. Contract notes to the individuals who have subscribed to Units without pre-emptive rights are expected to be issued on approximately 18 September 2009. Only those individuals who receive an allocation of Units will be informed.
