Through the Rights Issue, the Company will receive approximately SEK 7.9 million before issue costs. Upon full exercise of all warrants of series TO2, the Company may be provided with an additional capital injection of up to approximately SEK 9.4 million.
Pontus Engström, CEO comments "With the new capital we bring in, we can continue to make investments that generate an immediate cash flow and strengthen MTI Investment, while we can also add some capital in May when the options expire. A big thank you to our existing shareholders for your participation and a warm welcome to all the new shareholders who have chosen to support us through this rights issue."
Allocation of units subscribed for without the exercise of unit rights Allocation of units subscribed for without the exercise of unit rights has taken place in accordance with what is stated in the EU growth prospectus that the Company published on 27 November, 2023, due to the Rights Issue (the "Prospectus"). Notification of such allocation is announced separately through settlement notes. Nominee-registered shareholders receive notification of allotment in accordance with instructions from the respective nominee.

If all warrants of series TO2 are fully exercised for subscription of new shares in the Company, the number of shares in the Company will increase with an additional 3,149,880 shares, from 11,820,778 shares to 14,970,658 shares, and the share capital will increase with an additional approximately EUR 62,997.60, from approximately EUR 236,415.56 to approximately EUR 299,413.16.
Warrants of series TO2 Each warrant of series TO2 entitles the holder to subscribe for one (1) new share in the Company. The subscription price for subscription of shares by virtue of the warrants of series TO2 amounts to seventy (70) percent of the volume-weighted average price of the Company's share during the period from and including 23 April 2024 up to and including 7 May 2024, however, not less than the quota value of the share (currently EUR 0.02) and not more than SEK 3.00. Subscription of new shares through warrants of series TO2 shall be carried out according to the terms of the warrants during the period from and including 10 May 2024 up to and including 24 May 2024.
