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.

Reference is made to the stock exchange announcement by Zalaris ASA ("Zalaris"
or the "Company", ticker code "ZAL") earlier today regarding a contemplated
private placement of up to approx. 2.3 million shares (the "Private Placement").

The Company is pleased to announce that the Private Placement has been
successfully completed, raising approximately NOK 140 million in gross proceeds
through the allocation of in total 2,322,300 shares in the Company at a price of
NOK 60 per share (the "Offer Shares"). The Private Placement took place through
an accelerated book-building process managed by Arctic Securities AS and
SpareBank 1 Markets AS (jointly, the "Managers"), as joint bookrunners after
close of market today, on 10 June 2021. The Private Placement attracted strong
interest from high-quality institutional and private investors and was
significantly oversubscribed.

Out of the total transaction, 2,012,300 Offer Shares are new shares to be issued
by the Company raising gross proceeds of approximately NOK 120 million to the
Company, and 310,000 Offer Shares are existing shares sold by AHAG
Vermögensverwaltung GmbH and the Company.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of new shares in the
Private Placement 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 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.

Completion of the Private Placement and the issuance of the new shares in
connection with the Offer Shares were resolved by the Company's Board of
Directors (the "Board") at a board meeting held earlier today, pursuant to an
authorisation given at the Company's Annual General Meeting held on 20 May 2021.

Notification of allocation, including settlement instructions are expected to be
distributed by the Managers on or about 11 June 2021, with settlement on a
delivery versus payment (DVP) basis on or about 15 June 2021.

Delivery versus payment settlement of the Offer Shares will be facilitated by
existing and unencumbered shares in the Company that are already listed on the
Oslo Stock Exchange. New shares to be issued by the Company will be settled
towards investors with shares made available pursuant to a share lending
agreement between by Arctic Securities AS (on behalf of the Managers), the
Company and Norwegian Retail AS. Following registration of the share capital
increase pertaining to the Private Placement in the Norwegian Register of
Business Enterprises, the Company will have 22,135,279 shares issued and
outstanding, each with a par value of NOK 0.10.

The Private Placement implies a deviation from the pre-emptive rights of the
existing shareholders of the Company under the Norwegian Public Limited
Companies Act. The Board has considered this and is of the view that it would be
in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders to deviate from the
existing shareholders' pre-emptive right to the new shares in the Private
Placement, and that this would also be in compliance with 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. In reaching this conclusion, the Board inter alia
emphasized that:

o the proposed subscription price of NOK 60 per share is based on the investor
interest obtained following a pre-sounding of the Private Placement with
wall-crossed investors and a publicly announced book-building process conducted
by leading investment banks and the subscription price represent professional
investors' view of the market price for the shares for a share offering of this
size.

o the subscription price represented a smaller discount to the prices at which
the Company's shares had been traded on Oslo Børs prior to the announcement of
the Private Placement (approx. 5.2% discount to WVAP the last ten trading days)
and the number of new shares represent only 10% of the existing number of shares
in the Company, and a dilution of existing shareholders below 10%.

o all existing shareholders participating in the Private Placement were
allocated shares equal to at least their pro-rata ownership in the Company.
Further a substantial amount of the Company's existing shareholders was offered
to participate in the Private Placement.

o a share issue in the form of a private placement enabled the Company to
capitalise on current market conditions which were deemed beneficial to the
interest of the Company and its shareholders. Such benefits would not be
obtainable by structures with longer lead time such as a rights offering.

The Company will not carry out a subsequent offering.

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

States or to conduct a public offering of securities in the United States. Any

Matters discussed in this announcement may constitute forward-looking
statements. Forward-looking statements are statements that are not historical
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.

This announcement is for information purposes only and is not to be relied upon
in substitution for the exercise of independent judgment. It is not intended as
investment advice and under no circumstances is it to be used or considered as
an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities or a

In connection with the Offering, the Managers and any of their affiliates,
acting as investors for their own accounts, may subscribe for or purchase shares
and in that capacity may retain, purchase, sell, offer to sell or otherwise deal
for their own accounts in such shares and other securities of the Company or
related investments in connection with the Offering or otherwise. Accordingly,

subscribed, acquired, placed or otherwise dealt in should be read as including
any issue or offer to, or subscription, acquisition, placing or dealing by, such
Manager and any of their affiliates acting as investors for their own accounts.
The Managers do not intend to disclose the extent of any such investment or
transactions otherwise than in accordance with any legal or regulatory
obligations to do so.
