Alligator Bioscience AB (“Alligator” or the “Company”) hereby announces that the exercise price for warrants series TO 9 (the “warrants”) has been determined to SEK 0.55. The exercise period for the warrants commences on 4 December 2024 and runs up to and including 18 December 2024. The last day for trading in the warrants is 13 December 2024.
Alligator carried out a rights issue of units during March – April 2024 (the “Rights Issue”). Each unit issued in the Rights Issue consisted of one (1) ordinary share and one (1) warrant series TO 9. One (1) warrant series TO 9 entitles the holder to subscribe for one (1) new ordinary share in the Company. If all warrants are exercised, Alligator will receive approximately SEK 55.0 million before issue costs.
The subscription price for the warrants was set at 90 percent of the volume-weighted average price for the Company’s ordinary share on Nasdaq Stockholm during the period 4 – 29 November 2024. 90 percent of the volume-weighted average price during the measurement period amounted to SEK 0.55.

Warrants that have not been exercised on or before 18 December 2024 expire without value. Holders who do not wish to exercise their warrants may sell them. Trading with warrants is ongoing up to and including 13 December 2024.
