An addendum to the Offer Document regarding the Mandatory Offer is announced today and will be available on Avanza Bank’s website https://www.avanza.se/avanzabank/kampanjer/cf/2014/prospekt/index.html.
The addendum to the Offer Document was prepared due to the press release Steenord announced on 15 September 2014 regarding Steenord's resolution to waive the condition for the Mandatory Offer, declare the Mandatory Offer unconditional and bring forward the date of settlement for shareholders having accepted the Mandatory Offer prior to 17.00 (CET) on 29 September 2014, and also due to the press release the Board of Directors in Agrokultura announced on 18 September 2014, in which it recommends the shareholders in Agrokultura with a prudent view of risk to accept the Mandatory Offer.
Steenord discloses the information provided herein pursuant to the Swedish Takeover Rules. The information was submitted for publication on 22 September 2014 at 08.30 (CET).
