Arbitral award rendered in favour of Xintela in dispute with former underwriters

The arbitral award concerns the dispute that arose in connection with the pre-emption rights issue that was announced on 5^th September 2018. At the announcement, an underwriting agreement had been entered between Xintela and four underwriters; Formue Nord Markedsneutral A/S, Modelio Equity AB, Oliver Molse and Råsunda Förvaltning AB. However, the board resolved not to go ahead with the rights issue because Xintela had received a very attractive financing option deemed considerably more advantageous for the company and the company's shareholders. Although the rights issue was never implemented, the underwriters considered themselves entitled to the agreed underwriting commission of in total MSEK 1.5, disputed by Xintela. As a consequence, the counterparty called for arbitral proceedings. An arbitral award has been announced today, dismissing the guarantors' claims for payment in their entirety. Pursuant to the award, Xintela shall also be reimbursed for costs incurred as a result of the arbitral proceedings.
