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.

Bergen, 05.10.2021

Reference is made to the announcement published on 4 October 2021 by Lifecare AS
(the "Company") regarding the launch of a contemplated private placement (the
"Private Placement").

Lifecare is pleased to announce that it has raised approx. NOK 26 million in
gross proceeds through the Private Placement of 15,467,834 new shares in the
Company (the "Offer Shares"), at a price per Offer Share of NOK 1.70 (the "Offer
Price").

The Private Placement took place through an accelerated bookbuilding process
between 4 October 2021 09:00 CEST and 5 October 2021 16:30 CEST with Carnegie AS
as bookrunner and manager (the "Manager").

Lifecare intends to use the net proceeds from the Private Placement for: (i)
further research, development and clinical studies of the implantable sensor
Sencell towards CE mark, (ii) strengthening the Company's balance sheet to
ensure financial capacity and flexibility to pursue growth opportunities, (iii)
working capital as well as for general corporate purposes, and (iv) continue to
develop the organization and internationalize the Company.

The following primary insider has been allocated shares in the Private
Placement: Hereid Invest AS, a company wholly owned by the Company's investor
relations and controller Kine Hereid, has been allocated 117,647 Offer Shares
and will following completion of the Private Placement own 117,647 shares in the
Company.

The share capital increase pertaining to the Private Placement was resolved by
the Board of Directors of the Company on 5 October 2021 pursuant to
authorizations granted by the extraordinary general meetings held on 20 November
2020 and 10 September 2021. Notification of allotment of the Offer Shares,
including settlement instructions, will be sent to the applicants through a
notification from the Manager on or about 6 October 2021.

In order to facilitate timely delivery of shares to subscribers in the Private
Placement, delivery of the new shares allocated in the Private Placement will be
made by delivery of existing and unencumbered shares in the Company already
listed on Euronext Growth, pursuant to a share lending agreement entered into
between the Company, the Manager and significant shareholders in the company.
The Manager will settle the share loan with new shares in the Company to be
issued shortly after payment has been received for the Offer Shares.The Offer
Shares will be tradable from allocation.

Following issuance of the Offer Shares, the Company will have an issued share
capital of NOK 39,193,658.8 divided into 97,984,147 shares, each with a par
value of NOK 0.4.

The Board of Directors has considered the Private Placement in light of the
equal treatment obligations under the Norwegian Private Limited Liability
Companies Act, the Norwegian Securities Trading Act, the Issuer Rules for
Euronext Growth Oslo and Oslo Børs' Circular no. 2/2014, and is of the opinion
that the Private Placement is in compliance with these requirements. The Board
has considered alternative structures for the raising of new equity. The Board
is of the view that is 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 equity raise as a
private placement, the Company has been in a position to raise equity
efficiently, with a lower discount to the current trading price, at a lower cost
and with a significantly lower risk compared to a rights issue. In the
assessment it has also been taken into consideration that the Private Placement
has been structured as a publicly announced bookbuilding process.

The Board has also considered whether to carry out a subsequent offering towards
the existing shareholders who were not allocated shares in the Private
Placement. The Board has concluded that this is not required to comply with the
rules regarding equal treatment of shareholders and has resolved to not carry
out a subsequent offering. In the assessment it has been taken into
consideration inter alia that (i) the Private Placement was implemented in a
manner to ensure that it was placed on market terms, (ii) that the subscription
price represents a small discount to both the observed trading prices after
announcement of the subscription price in the Private Placement on 5 October
2021 and a premium to the volume weighted average price over the last 10 trading
days prior to the completion of the Private Placement and (iii) that the Private
Placement was implemented as a publicly announced bookbuilding process which was
open for two trading days.
