The price offered for the Option Rights is EUR 3.38 in cash for each Option Right 1/2020 A, Option Right 1/2020 B and Option Right 1/2020 C validly tendered in the Tender Offer (the “Option Right 1/2020 Offer Price”), EUR 0.01 in cash for each Option Right 2021a validly tendered in the Tender Offer (the “Option Right 2021a Offer Price”), EUR 2.04 in cash for each Option Right 2021b validly tendered in the Tender Offer (the “Option Right 2021b Offer Price”), EUR 1.67 in cash for each Option Right 2021c validly tendered in the Tender Offer (the “Option Right 2021c Offer Price”) and EUR 3.36 in cash for each Option Right 1/2023 validly tendered in the Tender Offer (the “Option Right 1/2023 Offer Price”, and together with the Option Right 1/2020 Offer Price, Option Right 2021a Offer Price, Option Right 2021b Offer Price and Option Right 2021c Offer Price, the “Option Right Offer Prices”), subject in each case to any adjustments as set out in the Tender Offer Document.
The Share Offer Price has been determined based on 5,361,116 issued and outstanding Shares as at the date of the Tender Offer Document.

Should the number of Shares or Option Rights on the date of the Tender Offer Document change as a result of a new issuance of shares or instruments entitling thereto, reclassification, stock split (including a reverse split) or any other similar transaction, or should the Company distribute a dividend or otherwise distribute funds or other assets to its shareholders, or should a record date with respect to any of the foregoing occur prior to any of the settlements of the completion trades (whether after the expiry of the Offer Period or during or after any subsequent offer period), the Share Offer Price and the Option Right Offer Prices, as applicable, shall in each case be adjusted accordingly on a euro-for-euro basis.
As set out in its statement published on 17 December 2024, the Board of Directors of Heeros has unanimously and unconditionally decided to recommend that the holders of Shares and Option Rights accept the Tender Offer. The Board of Directors of Heeros has received a fairness opinion, dated 22 November 2024, from its financial adviser, Danske Bank A/S, Finland Branch, to the effect that, as at the date of such fairness opinion, the Share Offer Price offered to the shareholders of Heeros was fair from a financial point of view, subject to the assumptions made, procedures followed, matters considered and limitations and qualifications on the review undertaken as more fully described in the fairness opinion.
Certain major shareholders and certain members of management of Heeros, including Rite Ventures Förvaltning AB, Lakeus Holding AB, Viking Venture 27 AS, Finnish Stars AB, Lion’s Mane Oy, Matti Lattu, Pekka Räisänen, Lars-Fredrik Palmgren, Ville Skogberg, Mikko Pilkama, Niklas Lahti, Juho Pakkanen, Eero Saarinen, Juho Nikkola and Henri Liuska (jointly, the “Committed Shareholders”), have irrevocably undertaken to accept the Tender Offer subject to certain customary conditions. These irrevocable undertakings will terminate (i) in case the Offeror announces that it will not pursue or complete (or will cancel) the Tender Offer, (ii) the Share Offer Price (or, where applicable, any of the Option Right Offer Prices) is reduced for any other reason than those stipulated in the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer, or (iii) in the event that a competing tender offer is announced by a third party with a consideration of at least thirty (30) percent higher than the Share Offer Price (and, where applicable, the Option Right Offer Prices, respectively) and the Offeror does not within seven (7) business days increase the consideration offered under the Tender Offer to match or exceed the consideration offered in such competing tender offer. The undertakings of the Committed Shareholders represent in aggregate approximately 81.7 percent of all Shares and in aggregate approximately 52.1 percent of all Option Rights. Together, the undertakings of the Committed Shareholders represent in aggregate approximately 79.9 percent of the issued and outstanding shares and votes in Heeros on a fully diluted basis, assuming full conversion of the Option Rights into Shares.
The completion of the Tender Offer is subject to the fulfillment or, to the extent permitted by applicable laws and regulations, waiver by the Offeror of certain customary conditions on or prior to the Offeror’s announcement of the final result of the Tender Offer including, among others, the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals, and the Tender Offer having been validly accepted with respect to Shares representing, together with any other Shares otherwise acquired by the Offeror prior to or during the Offer Period, more than ninety (90) percent of the issued and outstanding shares and voting rights in Heeros calculated in accordance with Chapter 18, Section 1 of the Finnish Companies Act (624/2006, as amended) and on a fully diluted basis.
Most Finnish account operators are expected to send a notice regarding the Tender Offer and related instructions to those who are registered as shareholders in the shareholders’ register of Heeros maintained by Euroclear Finland Oy. Shareholders of Heeros who do not receive such instructions from their account operator or asset manager should first contact their account operator or asset manager and can subsequently contact OP Custody Ltd (“OP”) by sending an email to tenderoffers@op.fi, where such shareholders of Heeros can receive information on submitting their acceptance of the Tender Offer. Please note, however, that OP will not be engaging in communications relating to the Tender Offer with shareholders who are U.S. residents or located within the United States. Shareholders who are located within the United States may contact their brokers for the necessary information.
Those shareholders of Heeros whose Shares are nominee-registered, and who wish to accept the Tender Offer, must effect such acceptance in accordance with the instructions given by the custodian of the nominee-registered shareholders. The Offeror will not send an acceptance form or any other documents related to the Tender Offer to these shareholders of Heeros.
A shareholder of Heeros who is registered as a shareholder in the shareholders’ register of Heeros and who wishes to accept the Tender Offer shall submit a properly completed and duly executed acceptance form to the account operator managing the shareholder’s book-entry account in accordance with its instructions and within the time limit set by the account operator, which may be prior to the expiry of the Offer Period or any subsequent offer period or, in the case such account operator does not accept acceptance notifications, such shareholder shall primarily contact his/her/its own bank to give his/her/its acceptance to tender his/her/its Shares, or secondarily contact OP by sending an email to tenderoffers@op.fi for further information. The Offeror reserves the right to reject or approve, in its sole discretion, any acceptance submitted outside the Offer Period (or any subsequent offer period, as applicable), or in an incorrect or incomplete manner. The Offeror may, in its sole discretion, also reject any partial tender of the Shares per book-entry account.
The Tender Offer may be accepted by a holder of Option Rights registered during the Offer Period in the register of holders of Option Rights of Heeros, with the exception of Heeros and its subsidiaries. OP will send a notification of the Tender Offer, including instructions and the relevant acceptance form, to all such holders of Option Rights. Holders of Option Rights who do not receive such notification from OP can contact OP by sending an email to tenderoffers@op.fi.
A holder of Option Rights registered during the Offer Period in the register of the holders of the Option Rights of Heeros wishing to accept the Tender Offer shall submit a properly completed and duly executed acceptance form to OP in accordance with its instructions and within the time limit set by OP. The acceptance form shall be submitted so that it is received during the Offer Period or, in the event of a subsequent offer period, during the subsequent offer period, however, always in accordance with the instructions of OP. Holders of Option Rights submit acceptances at their own risk. Any acceptance will be deemed submitted only when actually received by OP.
By accepting the Tender Offer, the holders of Option Rights authorize OP to sell the Option Rights to the Offeror in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer. A holder of Option Rights may only accept the Tender Offer unconditionally and in relation to all of his/her/its Option Rights, subject only to the right to withdraw the acceptance for the Option Rights tendered in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer. The Offeror reserves the right to reject any acceptance given in an incorrect or incomplete manner. The Offeror may also reject any partial tender of the Option Rights. A holder of Option Rights who has validly accepted the Tender Offer and has not properly withdrawn his/her/its acceptance in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer may not exercise, sell or otherwise dispose of his/her/its tendered Option Rights unless otherwise provided by mandatory law.
The preliminary result of the Tender Offer will be announced on or about the first (1st) Finnish banking day following the expiration of the Offer Period (including any extended or discontinued extended Offer Period). In connection with the announcement of such preliminary result, it will be announced whether the Tender Offer will be completed subject to the conditions to completion, as set out in the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer enclosed to this company release, being fulfilled or waived on the date of the Offeror’s final result announcement and whether the Offer Period will be extended. The final result of the Tender Offer will be announced on or about the third (3rd) Finnish banking day following the expiration of the Offer Period (including any extended or discontinued extended Offer Period) at the latest. The announcement of the final result will confirm (i) the percentages of the Shares and Option Rights that have been validly tendered and not properly withdrawn and (ii) whether the Tender Offer will be completed.
The Offeror reserves the right to acquire Shares and/or Option Rights before, during and/or after the Offer Period (including any extension thereof) and any subsequent offer period in public trading on First North Growth Market Finland maintained by Nasdaq Helsinki Ltd (“Nasdaq First North”) or otherwise outside the Tender Offer.
The terms and conditions of the Tender Offer are enclosed in their entirety to this company release as Appendix 1.

Information for shareholders of Heeros and holders of Option Rights in the United States
Securityholders in the United States are advised that the shares and option rights in Heeros are not listed on a U.S. securities exchange and that Heeros is not subject to periodic reporting requirements of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and is not required to, and does not, file any reports with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) thereunder.
The Tender Offer is being made for the issued and outstanding shares and option rights of Heeros, which is domiciled in Finland, and is subject to Finnish disclosure and procedural requirements. The Tender Offer is being made in the United States pursuant to Section 14(e) and Regulation 14E under the Exchange Act, and will benefit from exemptions available to "Tier I" cross-border tender offers, and otherwise is being made in accordance with the disclosure and procedural requirements of Finnish law, including with respect to the Tender Offer timetable, settlement procedures, withdrawal, waiver of conditions and timing of payments, which are different from those of the United States. In particular, any financial information included in this announcement has been prepared in accordance with applicable accounting standards in Finland, which may not be comparable to the financial statements or financial information of U.S. companies.
To the extent permissible under applicable law or regulations, the Offeror and its affiliates or its brokers and its brokers’ affiliates (acting as agents for the Offeror or its affiliates, as applicable) may from time to time after the date of this company release and during the pendency of the Tender Offer, and other than pursuant to the Tender Offer, directly or indirectly purchase or arrange to purchase shares in Heeros or any securities that are convertible into, exchangeable for or exercisable for shares in Heeros. These purchases may occur either in the open market at prevailing prices or in private transactions at negotiated prices. To the extent information about such purchases or arrangements to purchase is made public in Finland, such information will be disclosed by means of a press release or other means reasonably calculated to inform U.S. securityholders of Heeros of such information. In addition, the financial advisers to the Offeror may also engage in ordinary course trading activities in securities of Heeros, which may include purchases or arrangements to purchase such securities. Any information about such purchases will be made public in Finland to the extent, and in the manner required, by Finnish law.
Neither the SEC nor any U.S. state securities commission has approved or disapproved the Tender Offer, passed upon the merits or fairness of the Tender Offer, or passed any comment upon the adequacy, accuracy or completeness of the disclosure in relation to the Tender Offer. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offence in the United States.
Heeros is organized under the laws of Finland, and the Offeror is organized under the laws of Finland. Some or all of the officers and directors of the Offeror and Heeros, respectively, are residents of countries other than the United States. In addition, most of the assets of the Offeror and Heeros are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for U.S. securityholders to enforce their rights and any claim they may have arising under the U.S. federal securities laws. U.S. securityholders may not be able to sue a foreign company or its officers or directors in a foreign court for violations of the U.S. securities laws, and it may be difficult to compel a foreign company and its affiliates to subject themselves to a U.S. court’s judgement.
