Smoltek Nanotech Holding AB (publ) (“Smoltek” or “the Company”) has today entered into a loan agreement totaling SEK 11 million. The loan is provided by five lenders, including the Company’s Chairman of the Board Oskar Säfström (through Helm Properties AB) and Board member David Gramnaes (through Gramtec Invest AB), both of whom are major shareholders in Smoltek. The loan, which may be converted into shares in Smoltek under certain conditions, has been raised with the aim of strengthening the Company’s working capital and liquidity. At the same time, the Company is evaluating various options to strengthen its long-term financing.

The loan of SEK 11 million has an arrangement fee of five percent of the total loan amount and a monthly interest of 1.5 percent which is capitalized. The loan is due for payment on December 31, 2026, but the Company has the right to repay the loan and accrued interest early at any time, in whole or in part and without cost.

The loan, which has been raised with the aim of strengthening the Company's working capital and liquidity, enables the Company to manage its short-term capital needs while reviewing its long-term financing. The loan consists of five separate bilateral loans on, apart from the loan amounts, identical terms from five lenders. Within the framework of the lender consortium, the Company's largest shareholder and board member David Gramnaes (through Gramtec Invest AB) has committed to lend a total of SEK 4.6 million, and the Company's chairman of the board and major shareholder Oskar Säfström (through Helm Properties AB) has committed to lend a total of SEK 4.6 million. Three private investors have committed to lend the remaining loan of a total of SEK 1.8 million.

David Gramnaes (who is providing the loan through Gramtec Invest AB) and Oskar Säfström (who is providing the loan through Helm Properties AB) are related parties to the Company according to Spotlight Stock Market's issuer rules.

If the Company carries out a new share issue during the term of the loan, the lenders shall have the right to offset parts of or the entire loan against shares in such new share issue, provided that the Company's Board of Directors deems this to be consistent with law and good practice in the stock market.

If the loan has not been repaid on the due date, the outstanding loan amount together with accrued interest shall be subject to late payment interest of three percent per month, which shall be capitalized. The lenders shall also have the right to request that the Company carry out a new share issue, whereby the lenders shall have the right to subscribe for shares in the new share issue by offsetting the loan, provided, among other things, that the Company's Board of Directors deems such new share issue to be consistent with law and good practice in the stock market. The subscription price in the new issue shall correspond to 85 percent of the volume-weighted average price (VWAP) for the Company's share during a period of 20 trading days ending the day before the due date, but not less than the share's quota value.
