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. 

Zalaris ASA ("Zalaris" or the "Company", ticker code "ZAL") has retained Arctic
Securities AS and SpareBank 1 Markets AS (jointly the "Managers") to advise on
and effect a contemplated private placement of up to 2,322,300 shares (the
"Private Placement"). 

The Private Placement is divided into up to 2,012,300 new shares being issued by
the Company (representing approx. 10% of the issued and outstanding shares) (the
"New Shares") and up to 310,000 existing shares, of which up to 200,000 shares
are offered by AHAG Vermögensverwaltung GmbH (a company owned by Harald Goetsch,
Executive Vice President Central Europe in Zalaris) and up to 110,000 shares
(treasury shares) are offered by the Company (the "Existing Shares" and together
with the New Shares, the "Offer Shares").

The net proceeds from the sale of the New Shares will be used to: 
o	Finance the cash purchase price payable for the Company's strategic
acquisition of ba.se. service & consulting GmbH.
o	Pursue and fund near-term growth opportunities identified by the Company.
o	Fund further business development and value accretion.
o	General corporate purposes. 

The net proceeds from the Company's sale of the Existing Shares will be used to
settle fully vested RSUs in cash.

The Company will not receive any proceeds from AHAG Vermögensverwaltung GmbH's
sale of Existing Shares. 

The Private Placement will be directed towards Norwegian and international
investors, in each case subject to an exemption being available from offer
prospectus requirements and any other filing or registration requirements in the
applicable jurisdictions and subject to other selling restrictions. The minimum
application and allocation amount has been set to the NOK equivalent of EUR
100,000. The Company may however, at its sole discretion, allocate Offer Shares
for amounts below EUR 100,000 to the extent exemptions from the prospectus
requirements, in accordance with applicable regulations, including the Norwegian
Securities Trading Act and ancillary regulations, are available.

The offer price in the Private Placement and the final number of Offer Shares to
be issued will be determined by the board of directors of the Company (the
"Board") following an accelerated bookbuilding process. The bookbuilding period
for the Private Placement commences today, 10 June 2021 at 16:30 hours CEST and
is expected to close on 11 June 2021 at 08:00 hours CEST. The Company, after
consultation with the Managers, reserves the right to at any time and in its
sole discretion shorten or extend the bookbuilding period or to cancel the
Private Placement in its entirety for any reason. If the bookbuilding period is
shortened or extended, the other dates referred to herein may be changed
correspondingly.

Completion of the Private Placement by delivery of the Offer Shares is subject
to a resolution by the Board to proceed with the Private Placement following the
expiry of the bookbuilding period and to increase the share capital of the
Company by the issuance of the New Shares pursuant to the authorisation to
increase the share capital granted by the Company's annual general meeting held
on 20 May 2021 (the "Conditions").

Allocation of the shares in the Private Placement will be determined after the
expiry of the bookbuilding period, and the final allocation will be made by the
Board at its sole discretion, following advice from the Managers. Delivery of
the Offer Shares in the Private Placement will, in order to facilitate
delivery-versus-payment, be made by delivery of existing and unencumbered shares
in Zalaris already admitted to trading on Oslo Stock Exchange. The New Shares
will be settled pursuant to a share lending agreement between the Company, the
Managers and Norwegian Retail AS, while the Existing Shares will be settled with
shares owned by AHAG Vermögensverwaltung GmbH and the Company. All shares
delivered to the subscribers will thus be tradable upon allocation. The share
loan will be settled with New Shares issued in connection with the Private
Placement.

The Board has considered the Private Placement in light of the requirements in
the Norwegian Public Limited Companies Act on equal treatment of shareholders
and the prohibition against giving anyone an unreasonable advantage at the
Company's or the shareholders' expense, the obligation relating to equal
treatment of shareholders under the Continuing Obligations of companies admitted
to trading on Oslo Børs, c.f. Rule Book Part II section 2.1 and Oslo Børs'
Circular no. 2/2014, and is of the opinion that the waiver of the preferential
rights inherent in the Private Placement, taking into consideration the time,
costs and risk of alternative methods of the securing the desired funding, as
well as the expected limited dilution effects of the transaction, is in the
common interest of the shareholders of the Company. However, subject to
completion of the Private Placement, the Board will consider to carry out a
subsequent offering. 

AHAG Vermögensverwaltung GmbH has undertaken a 90 days lock-up period with the
Managers on its remaining shares in the Company.

Advokatfirmaet Thommessen AS is acting as legal advisor to the Company in
connection with the Private Placement.

facts and may be identified by words such as "believe", "expect", "anticipate",
"strategy", "intends", "estimate", "will", "may", "continue", "should" and
similar expressions. The forward-looking statements in this release are based
upon various assumptions, many of which are based, in turn, upon further
assumptions. Although the Company believe that these assumptions were reasonable
when made, these assumptions are inherently subject to significant known and
unknown risks, uncertainties, contingencies and other important factors which
are difficult or impossible to predict, and are beyond their control. Actual
events may differ significantly from any anticipated development due to a number
of factors, including without limitation, changes in public sector investment
levels, changes in the general economic, political and market conditions in the
markets in which the Company operates, the Company's ability to attract, retain
and motivate qualified personnel, changes in the Company's ability to engage in
commercially acceptable acquisitions and strategic investments, and changes in
laws and regulation and the potential impact of legal proceedings and actions.
Such risks, uncertainties, contingencies and other important factors could cause
actual events to differ materially from the expectations expressed or implied in
this release by such forward-looking statements. The Company does not make any
guarantee that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements in this
announcement are free from errors nor does it accept any responsibility for the
future accuracy of the opinions expressed in this announcement or any obligation
to update or revise the statements in this announcement to reflect subsequent
events. You should not place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements in
this announcement. 

The information, opinions and forward-looking statements contained in this
announcement speak only as at its date, and are subject to change without
notice. The Company does not undertake any obligation to review, update,
confirm, or to release publicly any revisions to any forward-looking statements
to reflect events that occur or circumstances that arise in relation to the
content of this announcement.
