Volvo Car

Volvo Car AB (publ) (“Volvo Cars”) would like to remind shareholders that the conversion period for conversion of Swedish Depository Receipts (“SDRs”) into American Depository Shares (“Polestar Class A ADSs”), which represent the underlying Class A shares in Polestar, listed on Nasdaq New York, will expire on 13 August 2024. To ensure participation in the conversion, holders of SDRs should apply for conversion well in advance of the expiration of the conversion period on 13 August 2024.

The conversion period, during which holders of SDRs may, free of charge, apply for conversion of SDRs into Polestar Class A ADSs, which can be traded on Nasdaq New York, will expire on 13 August 2024. The SDR-program is a temporary solution that will be terminated in connection with the expiry of the conversion Period on 13 August 2024. To ensure participation in the conversion, holders of SDRs should apply for conversion well in advance of the expiration of the conversion period on 13 August 2024.

Upon termination, all holders of SDRs who have not yet converted their SDRs into Polestar Class A ADSs, will automatically have their SDRs redeemed by Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken, as agreed with Volvo Cars, whereby the Polestar Class A ADSs that the SDRs represent will be sold on Nasdaq New York, at prevailing market terms at that point in time. The sale will take place as soon as practicable after the termination of the SDR-program. The payment of the proceeds from the sale of Polestar Class A ADSs will be paid pro rata to the previous holders of such SDRs. Such payment is expected to take place on or around 27 August 2024.

An information brochure with further information and detailed instructions on the conversion from SDRs to Polestar Class A ADSs as well as the general terms and conditions for the SDRs, are available on Volvo Cars’ website, https://investors.volvocars.com/en/the-share/polestar (subject to certain confirmations). An information video relating to the disitribution and a shareholder Q&A has also been prepared and made available on Volvo Cars’ website and can be accessed via the same link.
