Techstep ASA: Refinancing secures more flexible and long-term bank financing and converts all remaining seller's credits to shares

Techstep is pleased to announce that the company has signed a term sheet with a

new bank relation for the refinancing of the company's term loans and credit

facilities. The refinancing package increase total available liquidity with NOK

25 million and restructures the interest-bearing debt, increasing long term debt

by NOK 50 million with a 50/50 five-year amortisation and five-year bullet, in

addition to flexible short term credit facilities.

In addition, Techstep has entered into an agreement with Stobor Invest AB for

the conversion of all remaining seller's credit owed to Stobor into shares in

Techstep. Upon completion of the conversion into shares, Techstep has no

outstanding sellers' credits from previous acquisitions.

Together, this will give Techstep a solid and flexible financial position going

forward.

"These two transactions secure Techstep additional funding and financial

flexibility, which will support strategic priorities and growth opportunities in

the ongoing transformation", says CFO Ellen Solum in Techstep ASA.

The outstanding seller's credit amounted to NOK 14,427,855, which has been

converted from SEK 14,553,011 by using a NOK/SEK exchange rate equal to 0.9914.

The subscription price per new share in the conversion equals NOK 13.70 and the

total number of new shares being issued to Stobor is 1,053,128. The agreed

subscription price reflects the market price per share in Techstep minus a

discount due to the new shares being subject to certain lock-up restrictions in

a 12-month period following conversion.

Based on the above, the board of directors has resolved to issue 1,053,128 new

shares to Stobor at a subscription price of NOK 13.70.
