The Board of Directors of Zwipe AS, org. nr 994 553 607, has on November 10,
2019, subject to the approval by an Extraordinary General Meeting, decided to
carry out a preferential rights issue of up to MNOK 74 by issuing up to 10 635
525 shares, implying an increase of the Company's share capital of up to NOK
1 063 553.

90 percent of the Rights Issue, amounting to MNOK 67, is already covered through
subscription commitments and underwriting commitments from current shareholders
and new investors.

Background and purpose

During 2019 Zwipe has made significant technological, commercial and
organizational progress. Most notably, Zwipe entered a strategic collaboration
with Idemia on a disruptive technology platform for biometric payments.
Furthermore, Zwipe successfully completed the prototyping of its in-house Z5
energy harvesting and power management chip, extended its network of card
manufacturer clients, delivered according to its first received order for its
second generation inlay technology, and was engaged by G+D Mobile Security to
provide product design and prototyping for a wearable biometric payment device
to be piloted by a leading bank.

The preferential rights issue is carried out in order to secure working capital
toward commercialization and scale-up of Zwipe's technology platform. The
commercialization efforts will be accompanied by a targeted program to focus and
streamline the company's resources.

CEO André Løvestam commented "This rights issue is planned to extend Zwipe's
financial runway all the way to scale-up of biometric cards, and I am pleased
that we have achieved a 90% guaranteed subscription. We now see a clear path
toward finalizing and commercializing our technology, with the required capital
resources to get to that point.

Zwipe is streamlining its product roadmap and pursuing cost saving opportunities
that will reduce the current burn-rate. This has been made possible on the back
of the strategic collaboration with Idemia, the global leader in Augmented
Identity and one of the world's largest payment card manufacturers, on a
disruptive technology platform that we together with our partner Idemia believe
is a game changer and a catalyst for growth in the industry. The new platform
will integrate and simplify component design, drastically reducing costs of the
product itself and the manufacturing process. As a result, a complete biometric
payment card cost of below USD 10 is becoming realistic, providing an
accelerated path to mass volumes while giving Zwipe a long-term cost leadership
position."

Summary of Rights Issue

The subscription price is NOK 7.00 per share. The Company's shareholders have
preferential rights to subscribe to the new shares in relation to the number of
shares currently held. For each recorded share the shareholder obtains one (1)
subscription right.  Three (3) subscription rights entitle to subscription of
two (2) newly issued shares.

The Record Date for participation in the Rights Issue is planned for December 4,
2019. The subscription period is expected to run from December 5 up to and
including December 19, 2019. The Board of Directors shall have the right to
extend the subscription period if deemed beneficial. In the event that not all
shares have been subscribed for in the Rights Issue, the Board of Directors,
within the maximum scope of the Rights Issue, resolve on the allocation of
shares subscribed for without subscription rights.

The Company has obtained subscription commitments and undertaking commitments
from a number of current shareholders and external investors. The subscription
commitments from existing shareholders, and external investors who will receive
subscription rights from major shareholders who cannot participate, amount to
16.1 percent of the Rights Issue. Underwriting commitments amount to an
additional 73.9 percent of the Rights Issue. In total, the subscription
commitments and underwriting commitments from current shareholders and new
investors amount to MNOK 67.0, corresponding to 90.0 percent of the Rights
Issue.
