Stabilization notice

Non Regulatory

Carnegie Investment Bank AB (”Carnegie”) notifies that stabilization measures have been undertaken in BioArctic AB (publ)’s (“BioArctic” or the “Company”) B-shares traded on Nasdaq Stockholm.

As announced in connection with the offering to acquire newly issued B-shares in the Company and the listing of the Company’s B-shares on Nasdaq Stockholm (the ”Offering”), Carnegie, acting as Global Coordinator, carries out transactions aimed at supporting the market price of the B-shares at levels above those which might otherwise prevail in the open market.

Stabilization transactions may be undertaken on Nasdaq Stockholm, in the over-the-counter market or otherwise, at any time during the period starting on the date of commencement of trading in the B-shares on Nasdaq Stockholm and ending no later than 30 calendar days thereafter. Carnegie is, however, not required to undertake any stabilization and there is no assurance that stabilization will be undertaken. Stabilization, if undertaken, may be discontinued at any time without prior notice. In no event will transactions be effected at levels above the price in the Offering.

A few existing shareholders (“Selling Shareholders”) have granted Carnegie an over-allotment option, which may be utilized in whole or in part for 30 days from the first date of trading in the Company’s B-shares on Nasdaq Stockholm, to issue up to 4,375,000 additional B-shares, corresponding to up to 15 percent of the total number of B-shares encompassed by the Offering, at a price corresponding to the price in the Offering, i.e. SEK 24, to cover any over-allotment in connection with the Offering.

Carnegie has, in its capacity as stabilization manager, notified that stabilization measures have been undertaken, in accordance with article 5(4) in the Market Abuse Regulation 596/2014, on Nasdaq Stockholm as specified below.
