UNLAWFUL.
(Oslo, 28 September 2020) Reference is made to the stock exchange announcement
by Nel ASA (“Nel” or the “Company”) on 21 September 2020, regarding the
extension of the subscription period in the offering of up to 10,840,109 new
shares in the Company (the “Subsequent Offering”) until 28 September 2020 at
16:30 hrs (CET).
The subscription period ended today at 16:30 hrs (CET). In light of the listed
price for the Company’s shares on the Oslo Stock Exchange, which has been
substantially below the offer price in the Subsequent Offering of NOK 18.45 for
the last week at significant traded volumes, the Company’s Board of Directors
has resolved to cancel the Subsequent Offering. Eligible shareholders that have
exercised subscription rights for shares in the Subsequent Offering will thus
not be offered offer shares at the offer price of NOK 18.45.
Carnegie AS, Arctic Securities AS and SpareBank 1 Markets AS act as managers in
the Subsequent Offering (the “Managers”). Advokatfirmaet Schjødt AS acts as
Norwegian legal counsel to Nel.
