As warrant holder you need to decide on the offer – Here’s how to exercise your warrants of series TO 2

In order for your warrants not to expire worthless, you must subscribe for new shares, with the support of warrants, on 22 July 2020 at the latest, alternatively sell your warrants no later than 20 July 2020.

You can have your warrants registered in two ways:

1. In a securities custody account with a bank or other nominee (for example, Avanza or Nordnet), in an investment savings account (Sw. Investeringssparkonto) or endowment account (Sw. Kapitalförsäkring). Your warrants are then nominee registered.

2. In a VP-account (a VP-account starts with three zeros). Your warrants are then directly registered.

If your warrants are nominee registered

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 bank or nominee. Usually, the 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 bank or trustee. 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. This folder will be sent out to most nominee registered warrant holders. Subscribed and payed for shares may be entered as “interim shares” or “IA” into your securities custody account until registration of the issue is completed with the Swedish Companies Registration Office, whereby interim shares will automatically be converted to ordinary shares in SynAct.

If your warrants are directly registered

No VP-account statement will be sent out. Subscription of new shares, by exercise of warrants, shall be made by sending a completed subscription form to Sedermera Fondkommission. In conjunction with sending the completed subscription form, payment must be made to Sedermera Fondkommission in accordance to the payment details stated on the subscription form. Subscription form along with this folder will be sent to VP-account holders. The subscription form and folder are also available at the respective websites of SynAct (www.synactpharma.com) and Sedermera Fondkommission (www.sedermera.se). Completed subscription form and payment must be registered with Sedermera Fondkommission no later than 5:00 p.m. CEST July 22th, 2020. Subscribed and payed for shares will be entered as “interim shares” or “IA” into your VP-account until registration of the issue is completed with the Swedish Companies Registration Office, whereby interim shares will automatically be converted to ordinary shares in SynAct.
