Automotive and its partners.

Kongsberg Automotive's Global Leadership Team, led by President & CEO Joerg
Buchheim, is evaluating, and developing its technology-driven business towards e
-mobility in order to position the company effectively and sustainably for the
future. As part of these evaluations, it considered the sale of the LDC business
unit and the Light-Duty Cables portion of the Off-Highway business unit to
Suprajit, a global leader in the automotive cable industry.

The two companies entered into a definitive agreement on October 28, 2021. Under
the terms of the transaction, Suprajit will acquire Kongsberg Automotive's LDC
business unit for an Enterprise Value of EUR 37.7 million. The transaction,
subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions and
adjustments, is expected to close in the first quarter of 2022. With this
transaction, all related contracts, employees, and other assets will be
transferred to Suprajit. This includes LDC's three main operations in Mexico,
Hungary, and China, concerning a total of approximately 1,300 employees.

"We are convinced that this step allows Kongsberg Automotive to further focus
our resources and investment on our high-potential, technology-driven and know
-how-intensive business areas. We strongly believe that this transaction is in
the best interest of Kongsberg Automotive and our shareholders and also offers a
great opportunity for the LDC employees and the new owner Suprajit to achieve
economies of scale" says Joerg Buchheim, President & CEO of Kongsberg
Automotive.

"The LDC business unit of Kongsberg Automotive is of high strategic importance
for Suprajit. With three manufacturing units in Hungary, Mexico, and China, LDC
enhances Suprajit's geographical footprint and provides us with an enhanced
customer list. LDC's employees and engineering capabilities will further
strengthen Suprajit Engineering Limited. Their cable business will solidify our
stature as a major global player in mechanical cable systems. The
electromechanical actuation division will be a new, exciting business for us to
enter into," says Ajith Rai, Founder and Chairman of Suprajit.
