Zwipe AS - Issuance of New Convertible Loan

REG

Reference is made to the stock exchange announcement published by Zwipe AS ("Zwipe" or the "Company") on 23 December 2024, regarding the final allocation of the rights issue of units, consisting of shares and warrants (the "Units"), with preferential rights for existing shareholders raising gross proceeds of approximately NOK 40 million (the "Rights Issue"). In said announcement, it was stated that the Company received subscriptions for a total of 85,757,930 Units, corresponding to approx. 21.6% of the Units offered, during the subscription period for the Rights Issue.

Approximately NOK 8.6 million of the Rights Issue was guaranteed through subscription commitments and so-called bottom guarantee commitments (the "Bottom Guarantee Commitments"). Furthermore, the Company had received a so-called top guarantee commitment of an amount corresponding to approximately NOK 5,514,472 million (the "Top Guarantee Commitment").

The Top Guarantee Commitment will be fulfilled through the partial set-off of NOK 5,514,472 of the Company's outstanding convertible loan of NOK 10,514,472 (the "2023 Convertible Loan"). In addition, the accrued interest under the 2023 Convertible Loan, coupled with NOK 1,000,000 from the 2023 Convertible Loan, has been set-off against Fenja Capital II A/S (the "Top Guarantor") commitment under the Bottom Guarantee Commitments.

The remaining balance of the 2023 Convertible Loan, in addition to an arrangement fee of NOK 200,000, in total NOK 4,200,000, will be extended in the form of a new convertible loan (the "New Convertible Loan"). Accordingly, the Board of Directors of the Company has today, 23 December 2024, resolved, based on the authorization from the Extraordinary General Meeting on 3 December 2024, on the issuance of the New Convertible Loan to the Top Guarantor. Further, the Top Guarantor has subscribed for and been allotted the New Convertible Loan.

The New Convertible Loan is due on 30 November 2025 (the "Maturity Date"). The New Convertible Loan shall accrue at an annual interest rate of STIBOR 3M, where STIBOR is set at minimum 3.00% over the duration, (the "Interest Rate Benchmark") plus an interest margin of 10.00%, (the "Interest Margin") from the day the Top Guarantor pays for the New Convertible Loan until the New Convertible Loan is repaid to the Top Guarantor's account or converted (the "Interest").

The Interest shall become due at the end of each calendar quarter and shall be paid out by the Company quarterly on the last day of the quarter or if this date is not a banking day, on the banking day immediately after such date.

The Top Guarantor shall have the right, but no obligation, to convert the Convertible Loan into shares in the Company on the terms set out below. Each request for Conversion by the Top Guarantor must always be for an aggregate nominal amount of at least NOK 1,000,000.

The subscription price per share upon conversion of the New Convertible Loan shall be NOK 0.12 per share. However, this subscription price may be subject to adjustment in certain circumstances, such as if the Company undertakes a bonus issue; reverse share split, share split; new share issue under Chapter 10 of the Norwegian Private Limited Liability Companies Act (the "Companies Act"); future rights issue pursuant to Chapter 10 of the Companies Act; an offer to shareholders to purchase securities or other rights, or resolves to distribute securities or rights without consideration; liquidation, merger, de-merger, or bankruptcy; or if any of these actions result in an inequitable financial outcome for the Top Guarantor.

Upon full conversion of the New Convertible Loan, the share capital will increase by approximately NOK 3,500,000 through the issuance of 35,000,000 new shares, implying a maximum dilution of approximately 11.6 percent for existing shareholders (calculated on the total number of shares in the Company after the Rights Issue).
