Oslo, 3 July 2024: Reference is made to the stock exchange announcements made by
KMC Properties ASA ("KMCP" or the "Company") on 14 June 2024 regarding the
transaction agreed with Logistea AB (publ.) ("Logistea") (the "Transaction").
The Transaction will be executed by Logistea acquiring all shares in KMC
Properties HoldCo AS ("KMC HoldCo"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of KMCP, and
thereby acquire all of the operations in the KMCP group, with payment in newly
issued shares in Logistea (the "Consideration Shares") to KMCP.
As described in the abovementioned stock exchange announcements and in the
notice of the extraordinary general meeting to be held on 5 July 2024 (the
"EGM") it is contemplated that approximately 80% of the Consideration Shares
(the "First Distribution Shares") will be distributed to the Company's
shareholders in July 2024 and that the remaining Logistea shares then held by
KMCP (the "Second Distribution Shares") will be distributed in late Q3 or early
Q4 2024 on the basis of an audited interim balance sheet.
Following completion of the Transaction, and subject to approval by the EGM, the
Company will distribute the First Distribution Shares as dividend in kind to the
shareholders of the Company as of 5 July 2024 (as registered in Euronext
Securities Oslo ("VPS") on 9 July 2024) (the "Eligible Shareholders"),
corresponding to a NOK amount of 2,665,000,000, i.e. NOK 6.3949 per KMCP share.
As Logistea is a Swedish public limited company listed on Nasdaq Stockholm the
Consideration Shares will upon issuance be registered with the Swedish Central
Securities Depository ("VPC"), while shares in KMCP are registered with the
Norwegian Central Securities Depository ("VPS"). As the Consideration Shares
will be issued through the VPC, it will not be possible for the Company to
distribute the First Distribution Shares to its shareholders via the VPS system.
Eligible Shareholders may either receive the First Distribution Shares on
Swedish deposit account appointed by them or by receiving Norwegian Depository
Receipts ("NDRs") representing such shares on their VPS account. Eligible
Shareholders who desire to receive their First Distribution Shares on a Swedish
deposit account will be required to take certain actions to facilitate for this.
Eligible Shareholders who do not take such actions are expected to receive NDRs
representing their First Distribution Shares.
Attached is the Company's letter to its shareholders providing additional
information with respect to the above.
