In order to prepare the Company for the Listing and to ensure fulfilment of the

complete the Offer to the Shareholders of ININ Group and to carry out the
Private Placement.

After final calculation of the number of accepted shares in the Offer to the
Shareholders of ININ Group, shareholders controlling a total of 111,901,368
shares in ININ Group, corresponding to approximately 85.5 per cent of the total
outstanding shares in ININ Group , have accepted the Offer to the Shareholders
of ININ Group. As all outstanding conditions in relation to the Offer to the
Shareholders of ININ Group have been fulfilled, including a preliminary
admission to trading on Nasdaq First North Premier Growth Market from Nasdaq
Stockholm AB, the board of directors in Qben Infra has decided to declare the
Offer to the Shareholders of ININ Group unconditional and to complete the Offer
to the Shareholders of ININ Group.

As part of the completion of the Offer to the Shareholders of ININ Group, Qben
Infra has on an extraordinary general meeting held on 21 November 2024 decided
to issue up to 28,099,216 shares in Qben Infra as consideration to the
shareholders in ININ Group who have accepted the Offer to the Shareholders of
ININ Group. The subscription price per share was 13.573 SEK, based on the terms
set forth in the offer prospectus dated 4 November 2024, as well as ININ Group's
closing share price and the NOK/SEK exchange rate as of 20 November 2024 .

Through the Offer to the Shareholders of ININ Group, Qben Infra's share capital
increases by 390,266.9 SEK from 541,336 SEK to 931,602.9 SEK and the number of
shares in Qben Infra increases by 28,099,216 from 38,976,190 to 67,075,406. The
dilution effect resulting from the Offer to the Shareholders of ININ Group is
41.9 per cent in relation to the number of shares in Qben Infra prior to the
Offer to the Shareholders of ININ Group.

In parallel with the Offer to the Shareholders of ININ Group, Qben Infra has
also acquired 21,838,341 warrants in ININ Group from the holders of such
warrants in exchange for promissory notes in Qben Infra (the "Acquisition of
Warrants"). The extraordinary general meeting held on 21 November 2024 also
decided to issue up to 2,896,412 shares in Qben Infra, as consideration in
relation to the Acquisition of Warrants. The subscription price per share in
Qben Infra in the Acquisition of Warrants was for technical settlement purposes
set within a range of 0.28-4.44 SEK, depending on the strike price for each
series of warrants.

Settlement of the Offer to the Shareholders of ININ Group and the Acquisition of
Warrants is expected to be initiated around 25 November 2024.

Through the Acquisition of Warrants, Qben Infra's share capital increases by
40,227.9 SEK from 541,336 SEK to 581,563.9 SEK and the number of shares in Qben
Infra increases by 2,896,412 from 38,976,190 to 41,872,602. The dilution effect
resulting from the Acquisition of Warrants is 6.9 per cent in relation to the
number of shares in Qben Infra prior to the Acquisition of Warrants.

Following completion of the Offer to the Shareholders of ININ Group and subject
to a 2/3 majority vote at an ININ Group general meeting, Qben Infra will seek to
apply for a de-listing of ININ Group at Euronext Growth in Oslo.
