Since 24 May 2022, instructions have been received to exercise warrants as follows:- One individual has issued instructions to exercise 2,000 warrants at the agreed price of 4.28 DKK per share with a nominal value of 0.02 DKK

Following the closing of the exercise window, 2,192,494 remaining warrants are held by 12 individuals under the warrant scheme of May 2020.
Registration of the capital increase at the Danish Business Authority is expected to take place on 10 June 2022. Following the registration, the new shares are expected to be admitted to trading and official listing on NASDAQ Copenhagen on 15 June 2022 under the ISIN code of Penneo's existing shares (DK0061283009).
