Approval and publication of prospectus:
The Norwegian Financial Supervisory Authority (Nw. Finanstilsynet) has today, on 25 September 2025, approved a prospectus prepared by the Company for (i) the listing of the Private Placement Shares on Euronext Expand, (ii) the listing of the 20,000,000 shares to be issued in connection with a conditional private placement in the Company, announced on 16 September 2025, and (iii) the Subsequent Offering (including the listing of the issued Offer Shares on Euronext Expand) (the "Prospectus").
The Prospectus, including the subscription form for the Subsequent Offering, will be made available at the Company's website: www.observemedical.com/investor-relations/, as well as at https://www.sb1markets.no/transaksjoner/.
Listing of the Private Placement Shares:
The Private Placement Shares have been issued in the Norwegian Central Securities Depository (the "ES-OSL") on a temporary and separate ISIN (ISIN NO 0013610253), and have not yet been listed on Euronext Expand.
It is expected that the Private Placement Shares will be listed on Euronext Expand on or about 26 September 2025, following the transfer of the Private Placement Shares from the temporary ISIN NO 0013610253 to the Company's listed ISIN NO 0013457952.
The Subsequent Offering:
The Subsequent Offering consists of an offer by the Company to issue up to 24,000,000 Offer Shares, each with a nominal value of NOK 0.42, at a subscription price of NOK 0.50 per Offer Share (the "Offer Price"), being equal to the subscription price in the Private Placement. Subject to all Offer Shares being issued, the Subsequent Offering will result in NOK 12,000,000 in gross proceeds to the Company.
The subscription period for the Subsequent Offering will commence on 26 September 2025, at 09:00 hours (CEST) and expire on 10 October 2025 at 16:30 hours (CEST) (the "Subscription Period").
The shareholders of the Company as of 11 June 2025 (being registered as such in the Norwegian Central Securities Depository (the "ES-OSL") on 13 June 2025 pursuant to the ES-OSL's standard two days' settlement procedure (the "Record Date")), except for shareholders who (i) were included in the wall-crossing phase of the Private Placement, (ii) were allocated shares in the Private Placement, or (iii) are resident in a jurisdiction where such offering would be unlawful, or would (in jurisdictions other than Norway), require any prospectus filing, registration or similar action (such eligible shareholders jointly the "Eligible Shareholders"), will be granted subscription rights that will give a preferential right to be allocated Offer Shares (the "Subscription Rights"). In addition, investors who participated in the wall-crossing phase of the Private Placement and/or were allocated shares in the Private Placement may subscribe for Offer Shares and, at the board's discretion and subject to Eligible Shareholders having received allocation in full, be allocated any remaining Offer Shares.
Each Eligible Shareholder will be granted 3.0695 Subscription Rights for every existing share registered as held by such Eligible Shareholder as of the Record Date, rounded down to the nearest whole Subscription Right. Each Subscription Right will, subject to applicable law, give the right to subscribe for, and be allocated, one (1) Offer Share in the Subsequent Offering at the Offer Price. Over-subscription will be permitted, however, there can be no assurance that Offer Shares will be allocated for such subscriptions. Subscription without Subscription Rights will not be permitted, except for subscriptions by investors who participated in the wall-crossing phase of the Private Placement and/or were allocated shares in the Private Placement who may be allocated any remaining Offer Shares. The allocation criteria for the allocation of Offer Shares is described in detail in Section 12.2.11 of the Prospectus.
The Subscription Rights must be used to subscribe for Offer Shares prior to expiry of the Subscription Period on 10 October 2025 at 16:30 hours (CEST). Subscription Rights that are not used to subscribe for Offer Shares before the expiry of the Subscription Period will have no value and will lapse without compensation to the holder.
Subscription for Offer Shares by subscribers who are residents of Norway with a Norwegian personal identification number (Nw. fødselsnummer), may be made by way of online subscription. The subscription form and further instructions regarding the subscription procedure will be available in the Prospectus.
Notifications of allocated Offer Shares and the subscription amount to be paid by each subscriber are expected to be distributed to the subscribers on or about 13 October 2025. The payment date for the Offer Shares is expected to be on or about 16 October 2025. Subject to timely payment of the Offer Shares allocated in the Subsequent Offering, the Company expects that the share capital increase pertaining to the Offer Shares will be registered with the Norwegian Register of Business Enterprises on or about 21 October 2025 and that the delivery of the Offer Shares is expected to be completed on or about 22 October 2025. The Offer Shares are expected to commence trading on Euronext Expand on or about 22 October 2025, but not before the Company has published a stock exchange announcement announcing the registration of the share capital increase pertaining to the Subsequent Offering in the Norwegian Register of Business Enterprises.
Further information about the Subsequent Offering and the subscription procedures will be set out in the Prospectus.
