NOT FOR RELEASE, DISTRIBUTION OR PUBLICATION, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, IN OR INTO THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, AUSTRALIA, BELARUS, CANADA, HONG KONG, JAPAN, NEW ZEALAND, RUSSIA, SINGAPORE, SOUTH AFRICA, SOUTH KOREA OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION IN WHICH THE RELEASE, DISTRIBUTION OR PUBLICATION WOULD BE UNLAWFUL. PLEASE SEE "IMPORTANT INFORMATION" AT THE END OF THIS PRESS RELEASE.
In accordance with the terms and conditions for warrants of series TO1, which were issued in connection with a rights issue of units in February 2024, the number of shares that each warrant entitles the holder to subscribe for and the subscription price shall be recalculated after rights issues. Accordingly, Metacon AB (publ) ("Metacon") has carried out a recalculation of warrants of series TO1 due to the rights issue of shares that was announced on 15 October 2024. Following the completed recalculation, Metacon can confirm that the number of shares each warrant of series TO1 entitles the holder to subscribe for and the method for determining the subscription price, remains unchanged. Thus, one warrant of series TO1 entitles the holder to subscribe for one share at a discount of 30 percent in accordance with the previously communicated terms and conditions for the warrants.
Summarized terms for warrants of series TO1
Each warrant of series TO 1 entitles the holder to subscribe for one (1) new share in the Company during the period 7 March 2025 up to and including 21 March 2025. The subscription price for subscription of shares with the support of warrants of series TO 1 will correspond to 70 percent of the volume-weighted average price in the Company's share during the period from and including 20 February 2025 up to and including 5 March 2025. However, the subscription price can at minimum amount to SEK 0.01 per share and at maximum amount to SEK 0.44 per share.
The terms and conditions for the warrants, including potential adjustments due to future share issues, are available on Metacon’s website.
Example
In the event that the volume-weighted average price paid for the Company's share during the period from and including 20 February 2025 up to and including 5 March 2025 is determined to SEK 0.40, each warrant of series TO1 will entitle the holder to subscribe for one new share at a subscription price of SEK 0.28 per share during the period from and including 7 March 2025 up to and including 21 March 2025.
In the event that the volume-weighted average price paid for the Company's share during the period from and including 20 February 2025 up to and including 5 March 2025 is determined to SEK 0.88, each warrant of series TO1 will entitle the holder to subscribe for one new share at a subscription price of SEK 0.44 per share during the period from and including 7 March 2025 up to and including 21 March 2025.
The above are only examples to illustrate the method for determining the subscription price for warrants of series TO1. The final subscription price will be determined to 70 percent of the volume-weighted average price paid for the Company's share during the period from and including 20 February 2025 up to and including 5 March 2025, however, not less than SEK 0.01 per share and not more than SEK 0.44 per share.

About Metacon AB (publ)
Metacon AB (publ) develops and manufactures energy systems for the production of fossil-free "green" hydrogen. The products in the Reforming business area are based, among other things, on a patented technology that generates hydrogen through so-called catalytic steam reforming of biogas or other hydrocarbons. The development of Metacon's reforming products is done within the wholly owned subsidiary Metacon S.A in Patras, Greece. The business is focused on catalytic process chemistry and advanced reformers for highly efficient hydrogen production.
Metacon also offers complete electrolysis plants and integrated hydrogen refueling stations, a large and globally growing area for small- and large-scale production of green hydrogen. Electrolysis is a process of driving a chemical reaction to split water by adding electricity. If the electricity used is non-fossil, the hydrogen will also be fossil-free and climate-neutral. Green hydrogen can be used in sectors such as transport, basic industry and the real estate sector, with a better environment and climate as a result. www.metacon.com.
