NOT FOR RELEASE, PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION, IN WHOLE OR IN 
PART DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, IN AUSTRALIA, CANADA, JAPAN OR 
THE UNITED STATES

Reference is made to the stock exchange notice from Axactor 
AB ("Axactor" or the "Company") on 13 October 2016 regarding 
the completion of the private placement of 230,000,000 new 
shares (the "Private Placement") and the subsequent offering 
of 50,000,000 new shares (the "Subsequent Offering").

The Subsequent Offering will be directed towards shareholders 
in the Company as of close of trading on 12 October 2016 and 
as registered in the VPS on 14 October 2016 (the "Record 
Date") who were not allocated shares in the Private 
Placement, whether they had subscribed for shares in the 
Private Placement or not, and who are not resident in a 
jurisdiction where such offering would be unlawful, or would 
(in jurisdictions other than Sweden or Norway) require any 
prospectus filing, registration or similar action (the 
"Eligible Shareholders").

The subscription price in the Subsequent Offering will be NOK 
2.60, i.e. equal to the subscription price in the Private 
Placement. 

For each share recorded as held as of expiry of the Record 
Date, each Eligible Shareholder will be granted one 
subscription right. Twelve subscription rights give the 
holder a right to subscribe for one offer share in the 
Subsequent Offering. The subscription rights will not be 
listed and tradeable. Subscription rights not used to 
subscribe for shares prior to the expiry of the subscription 
period will lapse without compensation to the holder and will 
consequently be of no value.

The subscription period for the Subsequent Offering will last 
for ten business days and commences as soon as practically 
possible following the approval of a prospectus by the 
Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority, expected in the 
second half of November 2016. Such approval and the 
commencement of the subscription period will be further 
announced by the Company in due course. No action is 
currently required by the Eligible Shareholders at this 
point.

Carnegie and DNB Markets (the "Managers") act as joint 
bookrunners for the Subsequent Offering.

Further details regarding the Subsequent Offering will be 
made in due course.
