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

Lifecare AS ("Lifecare" or the "Company") has retained Carnegie AS as bookrunner
and manager (the "Manager") to advise on and effect a contemplated private
placement directed towards Norwegian and international investors, subject to and
in compliance with applicable exemptions from relevant prospectus or
registration requirements (the "Private Placement"). The Company is
contemplating to raise gross proceeds of between NOK 40 and 60 million by
issuing new shares (the "Offer Shares" or "New Shares") at a price of NOK 2.50
per share in the Company through an accelerated bookbuilding process.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Private Placement for: (i)
Further research and clinical studies of Lifecare's sensor techology, (ii)
Product development of the Sencell Continous Glucose Monitoring system towards
market launch in the veterinary market and CE mark preparations for the human
market, (iii) Financing of production set-up, including production space and
production equipment, (iv) Strengthening the Company's balance sheet to ensure
financial capacity and flexibility to pursue growth opportunities, (v) Continue
to develop the organization and internationalize the Company, and (vi) working
capital as well as for general corporate purposes.

Tjelta AS, an investment company wholly owned by Jostein Tjelta, has
pre-commited to subscribe for NOK 20 million in the Private Placement. In
addition, Lacal AS, currently holding 15.43% of the shares in the Company, has
pre-committed to subscribe for NOK 8 million in the Private Placement.

The final number of Offer Shares will be determined by the Company's Board of
Directors (the "Board").  The application period for the Private Placement will
commence on 19 October 2023 at 16:30 CEST and is expected to close on 20 October
2023 at 08:00 CEST (the "Application Period"). The Company, after consultation
with the Manager, reserves the right to at any time and in its sole discretion
resolve to close or to extend the Application Period or to cancel the Private
Placement in its entirety without further notice. If the Application Period is
shortened or extended, any other dates referred to herein may be amended
accordingly.

Allocation of the shares in the Private Placement will be determined after the
expiry of the Application Period, and the final allocation will be made by the
Board at its sole discretion, following advice from the Manager. Delivery versus
payment settlement of the New Shares will be facilitated by existing and
unencumbered shares in the Company being borrowed by the Manager from Teigland
Eiendom AS pursuant to a share lending agreement between such party and the
Company. The shares will thus be tradable from allocation. The Manager will
settle the share loan with new shares in the Company to be issued by a
resolution of the Board pursuant to authorizations granted by the annual general
meeting held on 18 April 2023. 

Completion of the Private Placement is subject to the corporate resolutions of
the Company required to implement the Private Placement, including a resolution
of the Board to proceed with the Private Placement following the expiry of the
Application Period and to increase the share capital of the Company by the
issuance of the New Shares.

The Board has considered alternative structures for the raising of new equity.
Following careful considerations, 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 setting aside the pre-emptive rights of the shareholders. By
structuring the transaction as a private placement, the Company will be in a
position to raise capital in an efficient manner. 

The Company may, subject to completion of the Private Placement, and certain
other conditions, propose to carry out a subsequent offering of new shares
which, subject to applicable securities law, will be directed towards existing
shareholders in the Company as of 19 October 2023 (as registered in the VPS two
trading days thereafter), who (i) were not allocated Offer Shares in the Private
Placement, and (ii) 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.
