NOTICE ON COMPULSORY ACQUISITION TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF RISMA SYSTEMS A/S (COMPANY REGISTRATION (CVR) NO. 32 76 97 13) PURSUANT TO SECTIONS 70-72 OF THE DANISH COMPANIES ACT


19 augusti, 15:38

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION OR RELEASE, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, IN OR INTO ANY JURISDICTION IN WHICH DISTRIBUTION OR RELEASE WOULD BE UNLAWFUL 

INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND

On 2 July 2025, RISMA Systems A/S (“RISMA”) announced that Thor Opco ApS, company registration (CVR) no. 45 70 61 33 ("Thor OpCo") had entered into agreements with shareholders of RISMA representing more than 90% of the share capital and voting rights of RISMA to acquire their RISMA shares for DKK 10.23 per share (the "Transaction").

On 14 August 2025, RISMA announced that settlement of the Transaction had been completed. Thor Opco ApS therefore now holds a total number of 20,241,893 RISMA shares, corresponding to approximately 90.3% of the total share capital and voting rights in RISMA.

As Thor OpCo now holds more than 90% of the share capital and voting rights in RISMA, Thor OpCo has decided to exercise its right to initiate and complete a compulsory acquisition of the shares owned by the remaining minority shareholders of RISMA in accordance with sections 70-72 of the Danish Companies Act (the "Compulsory Acquisition").

As a result of the Compulsory Acquisition, all remaining minority shareholders of RISMA are hereby formally requested to transfer their shares in RISMA to Thor OpCo within a period of four (4) weeks expiring on 16 September 2025 at 23:59 (CEST) (the "Compulsory Acquisition Period").

Additional information about the Compulsory Acquisition is provided below.

PRICE

Thor OpCo's Compulsory Acquisition of RISMA's remaining shares will be conducted at a price of DKK 10.23 per share in RISMA of a nominal value of DKK 0.10 (the "Redemption Price"). The Redemption Price corresponds to the price paid per share in the Transaction.

The Redemption Price will be paid in cash. Any bank fees, brokerage fees and/or other costs that may be imposed on any RISMA shareholder in connection with its sale or transfer of shares in the Compulsory Acquisition shall be borne by said shareholders, and such fees and/or costs shall be of no concern to Thor OpCo or RISMA. This applies irrespective of whether any shareholder of RISMA transfers its RISMA shares to Thor OpCo prior to the expiry of the Compulsory Acquisition Period as described in section 3 or whether such RISMA shares are compulsory acquired by Thor OpCo following expiry of the Compulsory Acquisition Period as described in section 4.

In the event that a minority shareholder does not agree with the Redemption Price, such shareholder may request that the Redemption Price is determined by an expert appointed by the court for the district in which the registered office of RISMA is situated in accordance with section 70(2) of the Danish Companies Act. The expert must determine the Redemption Price in accordance with section 67(3) of the Danish Companies Act. The expert's valuation may be brought before the courts no later than three (3) months after receiving the expert's valuation.

Where the expert's valuation pursuant to section 67(3) of the Danish Companies Act results in a redemption price that is higher than the Redemption Price offered by Thor OpCo, such higher price will also apply to the other RISMA shareholders whose shares are redeemed and who did not request an assessment.

Expenses relating to the expert's valuation must be paid by the minority shareholder who requested such valuation. However, the court may order Thor OpCo to pay the expenses in full or in part where the valuation results in a redemption price that is higher than the Redemption Price offered by Thor OpCo under the Compulsory Acquisition.

INFORMATION ON ACCEPTANCE

Any acceptance of a transfer of RISMA shares shall be notified online via the respective shareholder’s custodian bank or other account holding institution’s web bank solution (if the respective shareholder’s custodian bank or other account holding institution offers such solution) or by completing, executing and submitting the attached acceptance form to the respective shareholder’s custodian bank or other account holding institution, which will then by email or regular mail communicate the acceptance to:

DNB CARNEGIE INVESTMENT BANK, FILIAL AF DNB CARNEGIE INVESTMENT BANK AB (PUBL), SVERIGE

Overgaden Neden Vandet 9B

1414 Copenhagen K

Denmark

E-mail: settlement@carnegie.dk

(“Carnegie”)

Any notice of acceptance must be received by Carnegie prior to the expiry of the Compulsory Acquisition Period on 16 September 2025 at 23:59 (CEST). Thor OpCo reserves the right to reject any acceptance that has been submitted conditionally, erroneously or deficiently. The deadline for notification of acceptance to the custodian bank or other account holding institution will depend upon the shareholder's agreement with, and the rules and procedures of, the relevant custodian bank or any other account holding institution. Such time may be earlier than the last day of the Compulsory Acquisition Period.

Any RISMA shareholder whose shares are registered in the name of a custodian, broker, dealer, bank, trust company or other nominee must contact such person or institution if such RISMA shareholder wants to accept the Compulsory Acquisition with respect to their shares. Acceptance of the Compulsory Acquisition for shares registered in the name of an investment manager must be done by the manager on behalf of the RISMA shareholder.

Settlement of the transferred shares in RISMA will take place after expiry of the Compulsory Acquisition Period.

All shares in RISMA transferred to Thor OpCo in accordance with this notice must be free from any charges, liens, encumbrances and other third-party rights of any kind.

PROCESS FOR SHAREHOLDERS NOT SUBMITTING AN ACCEPTANCE IN THE COMPULOSORY ACQUISITION PERIOD

After expiry of the Compulsory Acquisition Period, Thor OpCo will, against payment of the Redemption Price per share of a nominal value of DKK 0.10, compulsorily acquire the shares in RISMA held by the minority shareholders who have not transferred their shares to Thor OpCo prior to the expiry of the Compulsory Acquisition Period, see above under section 3.

Payment of the aggregate Redemption Price will take place through VP Securities A/S (Euronext Securities Copenhagen), and in exchange for such aggregate Redemption Price, ownership of the shares in RISMA held by the minority shareholders who have not transferred their shares in RISMA will concurrently be transferred to Thor OpCo.

After the expiry of the Compulsory Acquisition Period, Thor OpCo will thus be registered as the holder of all outstanding shares in RISMA, and the share register will be updated to reflect that Thor OpCo is the holder of all shares in RISMA.

In addition, Thor OpCo will, in accordance with section 72(3) of the Danish Companies Act, publish a new notice through the Danish Business Authority's IT system to inform the minority shareholders that they may demand an expert opinion on the Redemption Price within a three (3) months' deadline from the time of publication of such statement pursuant to section 72(3) of the Danish Companies Act. This right will be forfeited at the expiry of the three (3) months' period.
