At the annual general meeting in Avanza held on 31 March 2021, it was resolved to issue warrants as part of the establishment of an incentive program for the employees within the Avanza-group, consisting of three sub-programs. Sub-program 2022/2025 expires during the fall of 2025 and includes a total of 1,200,000 warrants ("Warrants"), all of which have been transferred to employees in the Avanza-group ("Warrant Holders").

The board of directors has decided to propose to the annual general meeting that Avanza offers to repurchase all outstanding Warrants at a price equivalent to their market value. Payment for the Warrants is to be made in the form of newly issued shares (by way of set-off), why the board of directors has resolved on a directed new issue of common shares to the Warrant Holders. The offer is, inter alia, contingent upon the general meeting approving the board of directors' resolution on the new issue of common shares. The complete conditions for the new issuance of shares are presented in the notice to the annual general meeting which has been published in accordance with the details outlined below.

Submission for participation in the offer may take place during three periods during the fall of 2025. The offer does not entail any changes of the terms for the Warrants.

The reason for the offer is to facilitate for the Warrant Holders to realise the value of the Warrants and increase their ownership in Avanza without having to finance the exercise price of the Warrants, e.g. by selling shares in Avanza on the market. For Avanza, the offer entails that the company will not receive any subscription proceeds from the Warrants. Furthermore, the dilution of share capital and voting rights in the company for existing shareholders will be reduced compared to if the Warrants were exercised under the current terms and conditions of the Warrants.

The repurchase offer will not have an impact on Avanza's equity.
