NOT FOR RELEASE, PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION, IN WHOLE OR IN PART DIRECTLY OR
INDIRECTLY, IN AUSTRALIA, CANADA, JAPAN, HONG KONG OR THE UNITED STATES OR ANY
OTHER JURISDICTION IN WHICH THE RELEASE, PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION WOULD BE
UNLAWFUL. THIS ANNOUNCEMENT DOES NOT CONSTITUTE AN OFFER OF ANY OF THE
SECURITIES DESCRIBED HEREIN.

Oslo, Norway, 31 May 2024 at 18:20 (CEST).

Reference is made to the stock exchange announcement published by Baltic Sea
Properties AS ("BALT" or the "Company", and together with the Company's
subsidiaries, "BSP") on 23 May 2024 regarding the launch of a private placement
of new shares in the Company (the "Offer Shares") (the "Private Placement").

Following close of the bookbuilding period, the Company is pleased to announce
that the Private Placement has been successfully placed, and that the board of
directors of the Company (the "Board") has conditionally allocated 1,781,395
Offer Shares at a subscription price of NOK 49.00 per Offer Share (the
"Subscription Price"), raising approximately NOK 87.3 million in gross proceeds.


Norne Securities AS and SpareBank 1 Markets AS (together, the "Managers") acted
as Joint Lead Managers and Joint Bookrunners in connection with the Private
Placement.

The net proceeds to the Company from the Private Placement will be used for the
Company's development projects in the Baltics, as well as for general corporate
purposes.

The completion of the Private Placement, final allocation and issuance of the
Offer Shares are subject to the approval by the Company's annual general meeting
on 6 June 2024 (the "AGM").

The following primary insiders were conditionally allocated Offer Shares at the
Subscription Price:
- UAB Baltic Equity, a company controlled by James Andrew Clarke (Chairman of
the Board) was conditionally allocated 1,448,979 Offer Shares (approximately NOK
70,999,971).
- Arthen Invest AS, a company controlled by Lars Christian Berger (CEO), was
conditionally allocated 11,836 Offer Shares (NOK 579,964).

In addition to the approval from the AGM, 698,028 of the Offer Shares allocated
to UAB Baltic Equity is subject to the AGM approving an amendment to § 10 of the
Company's articles of association (the "Articles of Association") whereby the
threshold for triggering a mandatory bid on the Company's shares is increased
from 1/3 to 40%.
If the AGM does not approve the amendment to § 10 of the Articles of
Association, the size of the Private Placement and the subscription by UAB
Baltic Equity will be reduced by 698,028 Offer Shares so that UAB Baltic
Equity's post-transaction ownership in the in the Company does not exceed 1/3 of
the share capital and accordingly, that no mandatory bid is triggered by UAB
Baltic Equity's subscription in the Private Placement.

Completion of the Private Placement, by delivery of the Offer Shares to
investors, is subject to (i) all necessary corporate resolutions being validly
made by the Company, including (without limitation) the AGM resolving to
consummate the Private Placement and issue and allocate the Offer Shares, and
(ii) registration of the share capital increase relating to the Offer Shares in
the Norwegian Register of Business Enterprises.

Delivery of the Offer Shares will take place following registration of the share
capital increase pertaining to the Private Placement in the Norwegian Register
of Business Enterprises, expected to take place on or about 11 June 2024.
The Offer Shares will not be tradable on the Euronext Growth Oslo until the
Offer Shares have been registered by the Norwegian Register of Business
Enterprises.

The Private Placement represents a deviation from the shareholders' pre-emptive
right to subscribe for the Offer Shares. The Board has considered the Private
Placement in light of the equal treatment obligations under the Norwegian
Private Limited Companies Act, the Norwegian Securities Trading Act, and the
rules on equal treatment under Euronext Growth Rule Book II, and the Oslo Stock
Exchange's Guidelines on the rule of equal treatment, and deems that the
proposed Private Placement is in compliance with these obligations. The Board is
of the view that it will be in the common interest of the Company and its
shareholders to raise equity through a private placement. By structuring the
equity raise as a private placement, the Company is expected to raise equity
efficiently, with a lower discount to the current trading price, at a lower cost
and with a significantly reduced completion risk compared to a rights issue.

The Company has considered a rights issue instead of a private placement. The
Company is of the opinion that a rights issue would have to be on a fairly
significant discount, and guaranteed by a consortium of underwriters which would
also be an added cost for the Company. In summary, the Company expects to be in
a position to complete the share issue in today's market conditions in an
efficient manner, at a higher subscription price and at significantly lower cost
and with a lower completion risk than would have been the case for a rights
issue. Further, the Subsequent Offering, as defined below, will, if implemented
secure that eligible shareholders will receive the opportunity to subscribe for
new shares in the Company at the Subscription Price. As a consequence of the
private placement structure, the shareholders' preferential rights to subscribe
for the Offer Shares have been proposed deviated from.

The Company intends to carry out a subsequent offering of up to 1,020,408 new
shares raising gross proceeds of up to approximately NOK 50 million (the
"Subsequent Offering"). The Subsequent Offering will comprise new shares offered
at the same subscription price as the Offer Shares, and will be directed towards
existing shareholders in the Company as of 31 May 2024 (as registered in the VPS
two trading days thereafter), who (i) were not included in the wall-crossing
phase of the Private Placement, (ii) were not allocated Offer Shares in the
Private Placement, and (iii) are not 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. The Company reserves the
right in its sole discretion to not conduct or cancel the Subsequent Offering.

Further, the Subsequent Offering is subject to, inter alia, (i) completion of
the Private Placement, (ii) the AGM authorizing the Board to carry out the
Subsequent Offering, (iii) approval by the Board, and (iv) the publication of a
national prospectus, expected to start on or about 11 June 2024. Further details
on the Subsequent Offering will be made public by the Company in due course.

AGP Advokater is acting as Norwegian legal counsel to the Company in connection
with the Private Placement. Advokatfirmaet Selmer AS is acting as legal counsel
to the Managers.
