Here is how to exercise warrants of series TO 1
In order for warrants not to expire and lose their value, an action from the warrant holder is required. The holder of warrants of series TO 1 must apply for subscription of new shares, by exercise of warrants, no later than 5 p.m. CEST 13 April 2023, alternatively sell the warrants no later than 11 April 2023.
Subscription and payment of new shares, by exercise of warrants, shall be made to the account-holding bank/nominee with which the warrants are registered. The subscription and payment shall be made in accordance with instructions from each such account holding bank/nominee. Usually, the account holding bank/nominee sends out a digital notice to the account holder, otherwise it is enough to log into the securities custody account from the first day in the exercise period in order to get instructions on how to exercise warrants for subscription of new shares.
If you do not find these instructions, please contact your account holding bank/nominee. Please note that banks and other nominees may set different time limits for the last day for subscription, hence it is recommended to contact the account-holding bank/nominee early in the exercise period.
The account-holding bank/nominee with which the warrants are registered may request a submitted subscription form for the subscription to be accepted. Such a subscription form must be submitted to the account-holding bank/nominee in a complete and executed form in due time to allow the account-holding bank/nominee to process and forward the subscription form to ensure it is in the possession of Danske Bank A/S no later than 17.00 CEST on 13 April 2023. The subscription form can be found on Audientes’ website (audientes.com).
The number of warrants to be exercised will be transferred to Danske Bank A/S by your account-holding bank/nominee after the end of the subscription period. Payment for the exercised warrants will be made against delivery of temporary shares to your custody account, which afterwards will be replaced with the permanent shares. The new shares are expected to be listed for trading on Spotlight Stock Market on 26 April 2023.
