Oslo, 29 September 2025: Reference is made to the stock exchange announcement
published by Huddly AS ("Huddly" or the "Company", ticker: HDLY) on 22 August
2025 regarding the successful placement of 5,526,544 new shares in the Company
(the "Private Placement") and the contemplated subsequent repair offering (the
"Subsequent Repair Offering").
For the purposes of the Subsequent Repair Offering, the Company has prepared a
national prospectus (the "Prospectus"), which was registered with the Norwegian
Register of Business Enterprises (the "NRBE") today in accordance with section
7-8 of the Norwegian Securities Trading Act, for reasons of public
verifiability. Neither the Financial Supervisory Authority of Norway nor any
other public authority has carried out any form of review, control, or approval
of the Prospectus. The Prospectus does not constitute an EEA prospectus.
The Prospectus will be made available electronically at the following website:
www.paretosec.com/transactions prior to the commencement of the Subscription
Period (as defined below). Subscriptions for Offer Shares can only be made on
the basis of the Prospectus.
THE SUBSEQUENT REPAIR OFFERING
The Subsequent Repair Offering comprises an offer of up to 1,818,181 new shares
in the Company (the "Offer Shares") at a subscription price of NOK 11.00 per new
share (the "Offer Price"), raising gross proceeds of up to approx. NOK 20
million.
The subscription period for the Subsequent Repair Offering will commence on 30
September 2025 at 9:00 CEST and expire on 10 October 2025 at 16:30 CEST (the
"Subscription Period").
The Subsequent Repair Offering is, subject to applicable laws, directed towards
existing shareholders of the Company as of 22 August 2025, as registered in the
Norwegian Central Securities Depository, Euronext Securities Oslo ("VPS"), on 26
August 2025 pursuant to VPS' T+2 settlement procedure (the "Record Date"), who
(i) hold less than 1.00% of the current shares outstanding in the Company
(rounded to the nearest two decimal points), (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, for jurisdictions other than Norway,
that would require any prospectus, filing, registration, or similar actions (the
"Eligible Shareholders").
Each Eligible Shareholder will be granted non-transferable subscription rights
(the "Subscription Rights") that, subject to applicable laws, give a right to
subscribe for, and be allocated, Offer Shares at the Offer Price in the
Subsequent Repair Offering. Each Eligible Shareholder will be granted 0.371099
Subscription Rights for each share registered as held by such Eligible
Shareholder as per the Record Date, rounded down to the nearest whole number of
Subscription Rights. Each Subscription Right will, as a starting point, give the
right to subscribe for, and be allocated, one (1) Offer Share. Oversubscription
by Eligible Shareholders will be permitted, and subscription without
Subscription Rights will be permitted in accordance with the allocation
principles set out in the Prospectus.
The Subscription Rights must be used to subscribe for Offer Shares before the
expiry of the Subscription Period on 10 October 2025 at 16:30 CEST. Subscription
Rights that are not used to subscribe for Offer Shares before 10 October 2025 at
16:30 CEST will have no value and will lapse without compensation to the holder.
Subscriptions for Offer Shares must be made by submitting a correctly completed
subscription form ("Subscription Form") to the Manager (as defined below) during
the Subscription Period. 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 allocation of Offer Shares and the corresponding subscription
amount to be paid by each subscriber are expected to be distributed by the
Manager on or about 13 October 2025.
The payment for Offer Shares allocated to a subscriber falls due on or about 15
October 2025. The Offer Shares will, following registration of the share capital
increase pertaining to the Subsequent Repair Offering with the NRBE, expected on
or about 21 October 2025, be registered in VPS in book-entry form and are
expected to be delivered to the subscribers' VPS account on or about 22 October
2025 subject to timely registration of the share capital increase pertaining to
the Subsequent Repair Offering with the NRBE. The Offer Shares are expected to
be listed on Euronext Growth Oslo on or about 22 October 2025.
The completion of the Subsequent Repair Offering remains subject to (i) the
board of directors resolving to increase the Company's share capital through
issuance of the Offer Shares pursuant to the authorization granted to the board
of directors by the extraordinary general meeting on 8 September 2025, (ii) duly
made payments of the Offer Shares by the subscribers, (iii) registration of the
share capital increase pertaining to the Subsequent Repair Offering with the
NRBE, and (iv) issuance and delivery of the Offer Shares to the subscribers in
VPS.
The Company will make relevant announcements with respect to the commencement
and the final day of the Subscription Period.

of any state or territory of the United States or any other jurisdiction. Any

directed at qualified investors in that EEA Member State within the meaning of

applicable implementing measures in any EEA Member State (also as it forms part
of the United Kingdom domestic law by virtue of the European Union Withdrawal
Act 2018).
In the United Kingdom, this communication is only being distributed to and is

Article 19(5) of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Financial

facts and may be identified by words such as "believe", "expect", "anticipate",
"strategy", "intends", "estimate", "will", "may", "continue", "should" and
similar expressions. The forward-looking statements in this release are based
upon various assumptions, many of which are based, in turn, upon further
assumptions. Although the Company believes that these assumptions were
reasonable when made, the assumptions are inherently subject to significant
known and unknown risks, uncertainties, contingencies and other important
factors which are difficult or impossible to predict and are beyond the
Company's control.
Actual events may differ significantly from any anticipated development due to a
number of factors, including without limitation, changes in investment levels
and need for the Company's services, changes in the general economic, political
and market conditions in the markets in which the Company operates, the
Company's ability to attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel, changes
in the Company's ability to engage in commercially acceptable acquisitions and
strategic investments, and changes in laws and regulation and the potential
impact of legal proceedings and actions. Such risks, uncertainties,
contingencies and other important factors could cause actual events to differ
materially from the expectations expressed or implied in this release by
forward-looking statements. The Company does not provide any guarantees that the
assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements in this announcement are
free from errors nor does it accept any responsibility for the future accuracy
of the opinions expressed in this announcement or any obligation to update or
revise the statements in this announcement to reflect subsequent events. You
should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements in this
announcement.
The information, opinions and forward-looking statements contained in this
announcement speak only as at its date and are subject to change without notice.
The Company does not undertake any obligation to review, update, confirm, or to
release publicly any revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect
events that occur or circumstances that arise in relation to the content of this
announcement. Neither the Manager nor any of its affiliates make any
