Reference is made to the stock exchange announcement published by Lifecare ASA (the "Company") on 28 January 2026, regarding the registration of new share capital following completion of the partially underwritten rights issue raising gross proceeds of NOK 80 million (the "Rights Issue") and the registration of warrants allocated in connection with the Rights Issue.
The subscribers in the Rights Issue have received warrants in two series: (a) three (3) warrants for every four (4) new shares allocated to, and paid by, them in the Rights Issue, which will be exercisable in the exercise period from 2 March 2026 to 13 March 2026 ("Warrants Series 1"); and (b) three (3) warrants for every four (4) new shares allocated to, and paid by, them in the Rights Issue, which will be exercisable in the exercise period from 1 June 2026 to 12 June 2026 ("Warrants Series 2", and together with Warrants Series 1, the "Warrants").
In total, 240,000,066 Warrants (120,000,033 Warrants Series 1 and 120,000,033 Warrants Series 2) have been issued to the subscribers in the Rights Issue.
In addition, the underwriters of the Rights Issue will receive (a) three (3) Warrants Series 1 for every four (4) new shares subscribed by them as underwriting commission; and (b) three (3) Warrants Series 2 for every four (4) new shares subscribed by them as underwriting commission. A total of 18,000,000 Warrants (9,000,000 Warrants Series 1 and 9,000,000 Warrants Series 2) will be issued to the underwriters of the Rights Issue in connection with their subscription for in total 12,000,000 new shares as underwriting commission, as announced on 29 January 2026.
For further details on the terms and conditions of the underwriting, see section 13.15 "The Underwriting" of the prospectus prepared for the Rights Issue dated 6 January 2026 (the "Prospectus"). Subject to regulatory restrictions in certain jurisdictions, the Prospectus is available at www.lifecare.no, www.dnb.no/emisjoner, and www.sb1markets.no/transaksjoner/.
The grant, purchase or exercise of Warrants by persons resident in, or who are citizens of, countries other than Norway, may be affected by the laws and restrictions of the relevant jurisdiction. For a further description of such restrictions, reference is made to Section 15 "Selling and transfer restrictions" of the Prospectus.
The Warrants will be listed and tradable on Euronext Oslo Børs under the ticker codes "LIFEJ" (Warrants Series 1, ISIN NO0013709196) and "LIFES" (Warrants Series 2, ISIN NO0013709204). The trading in the Warrants will be halted five days before the end of the respective exercise periods to facilitate settlement of exercised Warrants. Warrants Series 1 will be tradable from 30 January 2026 at 09:00 (CET) to and including 6 March 2026 at 16:30 (CET). Warrants Series 2 will be tradable from 30 January 2026 at 09:00 (CET) to and including 5 June 2026 at 16:30 (CEST). The Warrants will hence only be tradable during parts of the respective exercise periods.
Subject to all Warrants being exercised at the maximum subscription price of NOK 0.625 (the subscription price in the Rights Issue plus 25%), the Company may receive proceeds of up to approximately NOK 161 million from such exercise (including any proceeds from the exercise of Warrants to be issued to the underwriters of the Rights Issue in connection with their subscription for new shares as underwriting commission). In the event that Warrants are not exercised, the gross proceeds will be reduced corresponding to the proportion of Warrants that are not exercised.
Each Warrant gives the holder a right to subscribe for one new share in the Company at a subscription price equal to 70% of the volume-weighted average price (VWAP) of the Company's shares on Euronext Oslo Børs on the last ten (10) trading days prior to the first date on which the holder can exercise the Warrant in the relevant exercise period, but in any event not exceeding NOK 0.625 (the subscription price in the Rights Issue plus 25%). The subscription price may not be lower than the par value of the Company's shares.
Exercise of Warrants is carried out by written notification to the Company, which must be received by the Company before the expiry of the relevant exercise period. The notice shall include the number of Warrants the holder has and how many of these are exercised.
Holders of Warrants may either sell the Warrants or use them to subscribe for shares in the Company within the relevant exercise period. As such, the Warrants may have an economic value for the holders, depending on the prevailing market price for the Company's shares. Holders of Warrants who do not use the Warrants to subscribe for shares in the Company may experience a dilution of their shareholding in the Company.
Warrants Series 1 not sold within 6 March 2026 at 16:30 (CET) or exercised within 13 March 2026 at 16:30 (CET) and Warrants Series 2 not sold within 5 June 2026 at 16:30 (CEST) or exercised within 12 June 2026 at 16:30 (CEST) will lapse with no compensation to the holders.
For more information, and the complete terms and conditions of the Rights Issue, please refer to the Prospectus.
DNB Carnegie, a part of DNB Bank ASA, and SB1 Markets AS are acting as managers in the Rights Issue (the "Managers").
