Eurobattery Minerals AB (publ) (the “Company”) today, on 16 October 2024, held an Extraordinary General Meeting. The Extraordinary General resolved, inter alia, to approve the board of directors' resolution on a rights issue of units and other related proposals, as well as an over-allotment issue and to authorise the Board of Directors to resolve on new issuances. Notice of the Extraordinary General Meeting and complete proposals for resolutions taken are available on the Company's website, www.eurobatteryminerals.com.

Rights issue and related resolutions

The Extraordinary General Meeting resolved to approve the Board of Directors’ resolution on a rights issue of not more than 50,744,017 units with preferential rights for the Company's existing shareholders with a subscription price of SEK 0.70 per unit, corresponding to SEK 0.10 per share (the "Rights Issue"). The warrants of series TO6 are issued free of charge. Each unit consists of seven (7) shares and four (4) warrants of series TO6. The record date for participation in the Rights Issue is set for 28 October 2024. Through the Rights Issue, the Company’s share capital can increase by a maximum of SEK 27,909,209.35 provided that the Rights Issue is fully subscribed and all warrants of series TO6 issued in the Rights Issue are exercised to subscribe for new shares.

The Extraordinary General Meeting further resolved, in accordance with the Board of Directors’ proposals:

Over-allotment issue

The Extraordinary General Meeting resolved, in accordance with the Board of Directors’ proposal, to carry out a directed issue of an additional maximum of 14,285,714 units consisting of shares and warrants of series TO6 with deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, in the event of oversubscription in the Rights Issue and to have the opportunity to broaden the shareholder base with strategic investors (the "Over-allotment Issue"). Each unit consists of seven (7) shares and four (4) warrants of series TO6. The subscription price for each new share in the Over-allotment Issue shall correspond to the subscription price in the Rights Issue, meaning that the subscription price per share is SEK 0.10. The subscription price per unit thus amounts to SEK 0.70. Subscription of units in the Over-allotment Issue shall be made on a separate subscription list no later than on 19 November 2024. Through the Over-allotment Issue the Company’s share capital can increase by a maximum of SEK 7,857,142.70 provided that the Over-allotment Issue is fully subscribed and all warrants of series TO6 issued in the Over-allotment Issue are exercised to subscribe for new shares.

Authorisation for the board of directors to resolve on new issuances

The Extraordinary General Meeting resolved – in accordance with the Board of Directors’ proposal – to authorise the Board of Directors to, on one or several occasions and until the next Annual General Meeting, with or without deviation from the shareholders' pre-emptive rights, against payment in cash, non-cash consideration or through set-off, resolve on new issues of shares, convertibles and/or warrants in the Company.

Resolution to reduce the share capital without cancellation of shares and amendment of the articles of association

The Extraordinary General Meeting resolved, in accordance with the Board of Directors' proposal, to reduce the Company's share capital by a maximum of SEK 76,378,353.30 so that the Company's share capital after the reduction amounts to SEK 500,000. The reduction shall be carried out without the cancellation of shares and shall be used for allocation to unrestricted equity. The reduction is carried out to adjust the quota value for the Company's share. The reduction of the share capital requires permission from the Swedish Companies Registration Office or a general court. Provided that the necessary permit is obtained, the reduction decision is expected to be executed in January or February 2025.

The new limits for the share capital and the number of shares in the articles of association

In accordance with resolutions passed at the Extraordinary General Meeting, the Company's share capital shall be not less than SEK 60,880,000 and not more than SEK 243,520,000 (prior to the resolution to reduce the share capital that requires permission from the Swedish Companies Registration Office or a general court) and the number of shares in the Company shall be not less than 365,300,000 and not more than 1,461,200,000.

PROPOSALS FOR RESOLUTION

Item 7 – Resolutions to amend the articles of association and to reduce the share capital in order to enable the issues of units under items 8 and 9

General information regarding the board of directors’ proposal under item 7
To enable the execution of the board of directors’ resolution on issues of units in accordance with items 8 and 9, the board of directors proposes that resolutions be passed at the general meeting in respect of a share capital reduction and amendments to the limits of the share capital in the articles of association. The items 7 a) – b) are one proposal to be approved together in one resolution at the general meeting. A resolution in accordance with this item 7 is conditional upon that the meeting also resolves in accordance with items 8 and 10. A valid resolution requires that the resolution is supported by shareholders representing at least two thirds of the votes cast as well as of the shares represented at the extraordinary general meeting.

Item 7 a) – The board of directors’ proposal to amend § 4 of the articles of association
To enable the reduction of the share capital under item 7 b), the board of directors proposes that the general meeting resolves that the share capital limits in § 4 of the articles of association be amended as follows.

§ 4 in the articles of association is proposed to have the following wording.

Proposed wording
The share capital may not be less than SEK 7,000,000 and no more than SEK 28,000,000.

Item 7 b) – The board of directors’ proposal to reduce the share capital
The board of directors proposes that the general meeting resolves on a reduction of the company’s share capital by SEK 53,281,218.20. The reduction shall be made without cancellation of shares. The reduction amount shall be allocated as non-restricted equity. The reduction is made in order to reduce the quota value of the shares to enable the issues proposed under items 8 and 9. Following the reduction, the company’s share capital will amount to SEK 7,611,602.60 divided between 152,232,052 shares in total (prior to the issuance of units), each share having a quota value of SEK 0.05.

The board of directors’ statement pursuant to Chapter 20, Section 13, fourth paragraph of the Swedish Companies Act
The effect of the board of directors’ proposal is that the company’s share capital is reduced by SEK 53,281,218.20 to SEK 7,611,602.60. The new issue of units, pursuant to item 8, increases the share capital by up to SEK 17,760,405.95 and the bonus issue pursuant to item 10 further increases the share capital by SEK 42,624,974.35. By carrying out a new issue of units and a bonus issue at the same time as the share capital reduction, the share capital increases by at least the reduction amount. The company may thus execute the reduction without approval from the Swedish Companies Registration Office or public court, since the measures taken together do not result in a decrease in the company’s restricted equity nor share capital.

Item 8 – Resolutions to amend the articles of association and on an issue of units with preferential rights for the company’s shareholders

General information regarding the board of directors’ proposals under item 8
To enable the registration of the resolution on an issue of units under item 8 b) below, the board of directors proposes that the general meeting resolves that the limits to the share capital in § 4 and the number of shares in § 5 of the articles of association be amended.

The board of directors, the CEO, or anyone appointed by the board of directors or the CEO, shall be authorised to make such minor amendments to the above resolution as may be necessary in connection with the registration of the resolution with the Swedish Companies Registration Office or Euroclear Sweden AB or due to other formal requirements.

The items 8 a) – b) are one proposal to be approved together in one resolution at the general meeting. A resolution in accordance with this item 8 is conditional upon that the meeting also resolves in accordance with items 7 and 10.

A valid resolution requires that the resolution is supported by shareholders representing at least two thirds of the votes cast as well as of the shares represented at the extraordinary general meeting.

Item 8 a) – The board of directors’ proposal to amend § 4 and § 5 of the articles of association

§ 4 in the articles of association is proposed to have the following wording.

Shares that are added through the subscription of new shares during the exercise period of warrants of series TO 5 will entitle participation in the rights issue.

3. Those who are registered as shareholders in the share register maintained by Euroclear Sweden AB on the record date 28 October 2024 shall receive one (1) unit right for each share held in the Company. Three (3) unit rights shall entitle to subscription for one (1) unit.

4. The price for each new share is SEK 0.10, the subscription price per unit thus amounts to SEK 0.70.

5. The warrants of series TO 6 are issued without consideration. The terms and conditions for the warrants are available on the company’s website.

6. The record date for participation in the new issue of units with preferential rights shall be on 28 October 2024.

7. Subscription of units through unit rights shall take place through simultaneous cash payment during the period from 30 October 2024 until and including 13 November 2024. Subscription of units without the support of unit rights shall take place during the same period on a separate subscription list. Payment for units subscribed for without the support of unit rights must be made in cash no later than the second banking day after the settlement note showing the allotment of units has been sent out.

8. The board of directors shall be entitled to extend the subscription and payment period.

9. The share premium shall be added to the unrestricted share premium reserve.

10. In the event that not all units are subscribed for with the support of unit rights, the board of directors shall, within the maximum amount of the new issue of units, resolve on the allotment of units to those who have subscribed for units without the support of unit rights in accordance with the following allotment principles:

11. The new shares entitle the holder to dividend for the first time on the record date for the dividend that occurs immediately after the registration of the new shares with the Swedish Companies Registration Office and the subsequent entry of the shares in the company’s share register kept by Euroclear Sweden AB. The new shares issued as a result of exercise of the warrants of series TO 6 entitle the holder to dividend for the first time on the record date for the dividend that occurs immediately after subscription has been executed.

12. The board of directors has the right to resolve on payment by set-off in accordance with Chapter 13, Section 41 of the Swedish Companies Act.

The CEO or a person appointed by the CEO shall be authorised to make any minor adjustment required to register the resolution with the Swedish Companies Registration Office or Euroclear Sweden AB.

Item 9 – Resolution on an over-allotment issue
In order to, in the event of oversubscription in the rights issue in accordance with item 8, meet demand and have the opportunity to broaden the shareholder base with strategic investors, the board of directors proposes that the general meeting resolves on a new issue of a total maximum amount of 14,285,714 additional units with the purpose to enable the company to raise an additional issue proceeds of an approximate maximum amount of MSEK 10.

The board of directors proposes that the general meeting resolves to carry out a new issue of units consisting of shares and warrants of series TO 6 with deviation from the shareholders preferential rights. Each unit consists of seven (7) shares and four (4) warrants of series TO 6. For the resolution, the following conditions shall otherwise apply.

1. A maximum of 99,999,998 shares may be issued, entailing an increase in the share capital of no more than SEK 4,999,999.90. A maximum of 57,142,856 warrants of series TO 6 may be issued, entailing an increase in the share capital of no more than SEK 2,857,142.80 if all warrants are exercised.

2. The right to subscribe for the new shares shall, with deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights, vest in persons who have expressed interest in subscribing for units in the rights issue, but who have not received full allotment of units due to the rights issue being fully subscribed. If the board of directors resolves to allocate units in the over-allotment issue, the board of directors has the right to allocate the units on a discretionary basis.

3. The price for each new share shall correspond to the subscription price in the rights issue meaning that the subscription price per share is SEK 0.10. The subscription price per unit thus amounts to SEK 0.70. In determining the subscription price, the board of directors has taken into account several factors, such as the fact that the company has announced that the company will carry out a rights issue in accordance with item 8, the market situation, the company’s financing needs, opportunity cost for other financing and assessed market interest for an investment in the company. It is the board of directors’ assessment, based on the above factors, that the subscription price reflects current market conditions and demand. Against this background, the board of directors assesses that the subscription price is in line with market conditions.

4. The warrants of series TO 6 are issued without consideration. The terms and conditions for the warrants are available on the company’s website.

5. Subscription for units shall take place on a subscription list no later than on 19 November 2024. The board of directors shall have the right to postpone the last day for subscription.

6. Subscribed units must be paid for in cash no later than on 21 November 2024. The board of directors shall have the right to postpone the last day for payment.

7. The share premium shall be added to the unrestricted share premium reserve.

8. The new shares in the directed issue entitle the holder to dividend for the first time on the record date for the dividend that occurs immediately after the registration of the new shares with the Swedish Companies Registration Office and the subsequent entry of the shares in the company’s share register kept by Euroclear Sweden AB. The new shares issued as a result of exercise of the warrants of series TO 6 entitle the holder to dividend for the first time on the record date for the dividend that occurs immediately after subscription has been executed.

9. The reasons for the deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights are to enable the company to take advantage of the opportunity to raise an additional issue proceeds in the event of a possible over-subscription in the rights issue (so-called over-allotment issue) and to broaden the company’s shareholder base. The issue is made without preferential rights for the company’s shareholders according to the allotment principles that apply to subscription without subscription rights in the rights issue, however, the board of directors shall have the right to meet any new shareholder’s subscription interest if the board of directors finds this beneficial to the company. The board of directors assesses that the above reasons justify the deviation from the main rule that new issues shall be carried out with preferential rights for existing shareholders. The board of directors’ overall assessment is that the over-allotment issue is beneficial for the company and its shareholders.

A valid resolution under this item 9 requires that the resolution is supported by shareholders representing at least two thirds of the votes cast as well as of the shares represented at the extraordinary general meeting. A resolution in accordance with this item 9 is conditional upon the meeting also resolves in accordance with items 7, 8 and 10.

The board of directors, the CEO, or anyone appointed by the board of directors or the CEO, shall be authorised to make such minor amendments to the above resolution as may be necessary in connection with the registration of the resolution with the Swedish Companies Registration Office or Euroclear Sweden AB or due to other formal requirements.

The subscription price is SEK 0.70 per unit, whereby Eurobattery upon full subscription in the Rights issue would obtain a maximum of approximately SEK 35.5 million before issue costs. For each (1) existing share in the Company, one (1) unit right is obtained. Three (3) unit rights entitle the holder to subscribe for one (1) unit. The subscription period commences on 30 October and ends on 13 November 2024. The Board of Directors has also decided to propose that the Extraordinary General Meeting decides on an over-allotment issue of units of approximately SEK 10.0 million at most (the “Over-allotment issue”) on the same terms as in the Rights issue. In connection with the Rights issue, the Company has undertaken to repay the outstanding convertible loan of SEK 5.0 million and issue a new convertible loan of SEK 4.0 million to Fenja Capital II A/S (the “Convertible issue”). Additionally, the Company has secured bridge financing of SEK 5.0 million, to be repaid in full in connection with the Company receiving the proceeds from the Rights issue. Upon full subscription in the Rights Issue, the number of shares in the Company will increase by a maximum of 355,208,119 shares, and upon full utilisation of the Over-allotment issue, the number of shares will increase by an additional 99,999,998 shares, before any exercise of the associated Warrants. In addition, the number of shares can increase by a maximum of 260,118,924 shares upon full utilisation of the Warrants, assuming full subscription in the Rights issue and the Over-allotment issue. The net proceeds from the Rights issue, the Warrants, and the Convertible issue are intended to be used for the preparation of a bankable feasibility study for the Finnish battery mineral project Hautalampi, repayment of interest-bearing debt, working capital and financial flexibility. The Rights issue is covered by subscription commitments and underwriting commitments totalling approximately SEK 21.3 million, corresponding to approximately 60.0 per cent of the Rights issue.

The transaction in brief

Background and motive in brief
Eurobattery is a mining and exploration company that conducts targeted mineral exploration in Europe with a focus on raw materials for the ongoing electrification. The Company currently has two flagship projects focusing on nickel, cobalt and copper in eastern Finland and northwestern Spain.

In July 2024, Eurobattery executed the third and final stake acquisition of shares in FinnCobalt Oy and thereby gained full ownership in the Finnish battery mineral project Hautalampi where the Company has carried out significant work efforts since 2020, and where several important milestones have been achieved during 2024. In January, the process design for the project’s concentration plant was initiated, and in April, an environmental permit application was submitted to the Finnish Regional State Administrative Agency. The following month, a memorandum of understanding was signed for the development of local photovoltaic production at the project site, and shortly thereafter the acquisition of the project was completed. Later, in August, the Company applied for the Hautalampi project to be classified as a Strategic Project under the Critical Raw Materials Act (“CRMA”), and in the same month, a non-binding offtake agreement was signed with Boliden AB for the full copper concentrate production in the Hautalampi project.

The Company continues to engage in contacts with potential offtakers for the nickel–cobalt concentrate production with the aim to sign additional offtake agreement(s) in 2024. At the same time, the Company awaits a potential recognition of Hautalampi as a Strategic Project under CRMA, which is expected to lead to more streamlined permitting procedures and provide access to the EU’s financing facilities, indicatively in December 2024. In parallel, the Company intends to continue its cooperation with Finnish authorities with the goal of obtaining an approved environmental permit by May 2025, as well as completing a bankable feasibility study for the Hautalampi project in 2025. With these milestones in place, Eurobattery is expected to be ready to initiate the construction phase of the Hautalampi project, and later commence commercial production of nickel–cobalt and copper concentrate.

In light of Eurobattery’s development plans established above, the assessment is made that the existing working capital is not sufficient to finance the operations going forward. The Board of Directors has thus, subject to the approval of the Extraordinary General Meeting on 16 October 2024, decided to carry out the Rights issue of approximately SEK 35.5 million and has undertaken to carry out the Convertible issue of SEK 4.0 million. The net proceeds from the Rights issue and any exercise of the associated Warrants as well as the Convertible issue are intended to be used for the following purposes:

In order to cover a potential over-subscription in the Rights issue, the Board of Directors of the Company has resolved to propose the Extraordinary General Meeting to resolve on a directed issue to be able to offer additional units, corresponding to a maximum of SEK 10.0 million, through the Over-allotment issue. The net proceeds from the Over-allotment issue and the Warrants are intended to contribute to increased financial flexibility with respect to what has been described above.

Terms of the Rights issue and the Over-allotment issue
The Board of Directors of Eurobattery has today, on 16 September 2024, subject to the approval of the Extraordinary General Meeting on 16 October 2024, decided to carry out a Rights issue of a maximum of 50,744,017 units with preferential rights for existing shareholders. The Board of Directors has also proposed that the Extraordinary General Meeting decides on an Over-allotment issue of approximately SEK 10.0 million (14,285,714 units) in order to cover a potential over-subscription in the Rights issue.

The main terms of the Rights issue are presented below:

The subscription price and the other terms of the Over-allotment issue are the same as those of the Rights issue.

Terms for the Convertible issue
Since 1 February 2024, the Company has an outstanding convertible loan with a nominal value of SEK 5.0 million to Fenja Capital II A/S, which entitles the holder to conversion of up to 10,416,666 new shares in the Company at a conversion price of SEK 0.48 per share. In connection with the Rights issue, the Company has undertaken to repay the whole outstanding convertible loan, of which SEK 1.2 million is to be paid in cash and the remaining amount is intended to be offset against new convertibles in the Convertible issue. The Convertible issue is intended to be decided with support of the authorisation from the Extraordinary General Meeting on 16 October 2024. The terms of the Convertible issue, including the conversion price, have been established through negotiations at arm’s length with Fenja Capital II A/S and are deemed by the Board of Directors to be at market. The main conditions for the Convertible issue are stated below:

Terms for the bridge financing
The Company has secured a bridge loan of SEK 5.0 million from parties who have entered into underwriting commitments in the Rights issue, to be repaid in full in connection with the Company receiving the proceeds from the Rights issue. The terms for the bridge loan are deemed by the Board of Directors to be at market. The main conditions for the bridge financing are stated below:

Subscription and underwriting commitments
Prior to the publication of the Rights issue, the Company’s Chairman Jan Olof Arnbom, Board member Eckhard Cordes, Board member and CEO Roberto García Martínez (through company), and CFO Mattias Modén (through company) have entered into subscription commitments corresponding at least to their respective pro-rata shares amounting to a total of approximately SEK 2.9 million, or approximately 8.3 per cent, in the Rights issue. The Company has also received a subscription commitment from past Board member Henrik Johannesson of approximately SEK 0.2 million, or approximately 0.5 per cent, in the Rights issue, meaning that the Rights issue is covered by subscription commitments totalling approximately SEK 3.1 million, or approximately 8.7 per cent, of which approximately SEK 3.1 million will be paid by means of set-off. Furthermore, Fenja Capital II A/S and a consortium around Buntel AB have entered into underwriting commitments amounting to a total of approximately SEK 18.2 million, or 51.3 per cent, in the Rights Issue.

The subscription commitments do not entitle to any compensation. The underwriting commitments entitle to an underwriting fee amounting to fifteen (15) per cent in cash, implying a maximum cash cost of approximately SEK 2.7 million for the Company, or alternatively, twenty (20) per cent in the form of units. The subscription price for the units referred to in the underwriting compensation will be the same as the subscription price in the Rights issue.

Overall, the Rights issue is secured by subscription and underwriting commitments amounting to a total of approximately SEK 21.3 million, corresponding to approximately 60.0 per cent of the Rights issue. Neither the subscription commitments nor the underwriting commitments are secured by bank guarantees, escrow funds, pledge or similar arrangements.

Extraordinary General Meeting
The Board of Directors’ decision on the Rights issue is conditional on the approval of the Extraordinary General Meeting on 16 October 2024. The Extraordinary General Meeting is also proposed to decide on the Over-allotment issue as well as to authorise the Board of Directors to issue convertibles, which is intended to be used to decide on the Convertible issue. The decision on the Rights issue also assumes, and is conditional on, that the limits on share capital and number of shares in the Company’s articles of association are changed as well as that the Company’s share capital is reduced in accordance with the Board of Directors’ proposal for the Extraordinary General Meeting. Notice to the Extraordinary General Meeting will be published through a separate press release.

Prospectus
The full terms and conditions of the Rights issue and the Over-allotment issue will be included in the Company’s EU growth prospectus, which is expected to be published around 28 October 2024. The prospectus and subscription form will be available on the Company’s website, https://investors.eurobatteryminerals.com/.

Warrants of series TO5
The Company has 33,268,890 outstanding warrants of series TO5 which will entitle to subscription for as many shares during the exercise period commencing on 7 October and ending on 18 October 2024, at a price corresponding to 70 per cent of the volume-weighted average price of the Company’s share during the ten trading days between 20 September and 3 October 2024, but not less than SEK 0.40 per share and no more than SEK 0.52 per share.

In light of the current share price in relation to the subscription price interval for the warrants of series TO5, the Company makes the assessment that no warrants of series TO5 are expected to be exercised. In the event that the warrants of series TO5 are exercised, an additional maximum of 11,089,630 units may be issued through the Rights issue, whereby the Company would obtain additional proceeds of approximately SEK 7.8 million at most before issue costs, assuming full utilisation of the warrants of series TO5 as well as full subscription in the Rights issue.

Stockholm, 26 July 2024 – As previously announced, the mining company Eurobattery Minerals AB (Nordic Growth Market: “BAT” and Börse Stuttgart: “EBM”; in short: “Eurobattery Minerals” or “the Company”) has exercised its option to acquire the remaining 30 per cent of FinnCobalt Oy (“FinnCobalt”), the owner of the ground and mining rights to the nickel-cobalt-copper project Hautalampi. The Company today announces that it pays the consideration for the shares in FinnCobalt so acquired: 28,987,185 newly issued shares in the Company and €300,000 EUR in cash. Following the closing of the acquisition, Eurobattery’s share of ownership in FinnCobalt amounts to 100 per cent. The number of shares in the Company amounts to 152,232,052. The acquisition is a significant step in the Company’s planned development of the Hautalampi project and the goal to establish a battery mineral mine with production and sales within a mid-term horizon.

I´m very pleased that we have now finished the acquisition process. This process started back in spring 2020 and since then we have put in a significant effort at the Hautalampi battery mineral project, for example, a positive pre-feasibility study and being classified in the highest categories as viable mining projects in the United Nations Framework Classification for Resources (UNFC). All this hard work was crowned by the submission of the Environmental Permit Application at the end of April this year. All this means we are perfectly on track to start the mining operations at the Hautalampi project as soon as the EPA is approved,” said Roberto García Martínez, CEO of Eurobattery Minerals.

The Hautalampi project in brief
The Hautalampi project is located near Outokumpu, Finland, in the same spot as the well-renowned Keretti mine where approximately 28.5 million tonnes of rock with a copper content of 3.8 per cent were mined between 1912–1989. The project consists of one mining concession covering 227 hectares with exposure towards nickel, cobalt, and copper, and a nearby reservation. The area benefits from well-developed surface and underground infrastructure as well as strong local support for mining. An estimated EUR 10–15 million had been invested in the project by previous owners before the project was assumed by Eurobattery in the spring of 2020. In June 2021 Eurobattery was able to increase the project’s measured, indicated, and inferred resource tonnage by approximately 100 per cent and the metal content by approximately 50 per cent. In October 2022, the Company was able to confirm a further increase in the metal content of approximately 40 per cent. On 20 March 2023, the Company published a preliminary feasibility study (PFS) for the Hautalampi project which highlighted the opportunities and potential challenges of advancing the development of the Hautalampi deposit. On the 29th of April 2024, the Company announced that the environmental permit application had been submitted to the Finnish Regional State Administrative Agency. In May, Eurobattery Minerals also communicated that that the Company will apply for the battery mineral project Hautalampi to become a Strategic Project under the new EU Critical Raw Materials Act.

Stockholm, 22 May 2024 – The mining company Eurobattery Minerals AB (Nordic Growth Market: “BAT” and Börse Stuttgart: “EBM”; in short: “Eurobattery Minerals” or the “Company”) carried out a rights issue of units with subscription period from 8 January to 22 January 2024, consisting of shares and warrants of series TO4 and TO5 (the “Rights issue”). Those who subscribed in the Rights issue during the subscription period thereby received for each (1) unit two (2) new shares in the Company and one (1) warrant of series TO4 (the “Warrant of series TO4”) as well as one (1) warrant of series TO5. Each (1) Warrant of series TO4 entailed the right to subscribe for one (1) new share in Eurobattery Minerals at a subscription price of SEK 0.40 per share. The subscription period for Warrants of series TO4 commenced on 7 May and extended until 21 May 2024, and a total of 12,776,891 Warrants of series TO4 were used for subscription of shares in the Company, corresponding to a subscription rate of approximately 38.4 per cent. The Company will thereby receive proceeds of approximately SEK 5.1 million before set-off of approximately SEK 1.0 million and issue costs. The issue proceeds are intended to be used to finalise the acquisition of FinnCobalt Oy as well as for continued work in the Finnish Hautalampi battery minerals project.

Number of shares and share capital
Through the new share issue the Company will receive gross proceeds of approximately SEK 5.1 million, before set-off of approximately SEK 1.0 million and issue costs. The number of shares will increase by 12,776,891 shares, from 103,131,838 shares to 115,908,729 shares, when the new shares are registered by the Swedish Companies Registration Office. The share capital will increase by SEK 5,110,756.40, from SEK 41,252,735.20 to SEK 46,363,491.60, which implies a dilution of approximately 11.0 per cent.

Warrants of series TO5
Each one (1) warrant of series TO5 will entitle the holder to subscribe for one (1) new share during the exercise period commencing on 7 October and ending on 18 October 2024, at a price corresponding to 70 per cent of the volume-weighted average price of the Company’s share during the ten trading days between 20 September and 3 October 2024, but not less than SEK 0.40 per share and no more than SEK 0.52 per share.

Advisers
Augment Partners AB acted as financial adviser and Advokatfirman Schjødt acted as legal adviser in the transaction.

Stockholm, 16 May 2024 – The mining company Eurobattery Minerals AB (Nordic Growth Market: “BAT” and Börse Stuttgart: “EBM”; in short: “Eurobattery Minerals” or the “Company”) today published its 2023 annual report.

The auditor’s report, which is attached to the annual report for 2023, deviates from what is common as a remark is stated by the auditor relating to a significant uncertainty regarding the going concern, as presented below.

Significant uncertainty regarding the going concern assumption
Without prejudice to my opinion above, I would like to draw attention to the statement in the Directors’ Report that the company is dependent on further capital injections in 2024 to ensure its continued operation. The board is negotiating with external stakeholders for a long-term solution to strengthen the company’s liquidity and equity. It is the board’s assessment that there are good opportunities for continued financing. The above indicates that there is a material uncertainty, which may cast significant doubt on the company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Eurobattery Minerals comment to the Auditor´s Report
The comment from the auditor is based on the fact that Eurobattery Minerals is a growth company and is financed through external capital. During 2024, the operations are being financed by using the warrant series TO4 and TO5. In April 2024, the Company announced that the Environmental Permit Application for the Finnish battery mineral project Hautalampi has been submitted to the authorities, which is an important milestone and a big step towards being able to start our mining operations in Finland. In light of the above and negotiations with potential off-takers and external partners – and taking into account the positive results from the project in Finland – the Board of Directors believes that the prospects are very good to continue to develop the business.

“In geopolitical terms, 2023 was a complicated year, but at Eurobattery Minerals we have continued to work hard, especially with the Environmental Permit Application for the Hautalampi battery mineral project. When I´m writing this we are closer to the start of mining operations and therefore I would like to thank all the shareholders for their continued support!”, says Roberto García Martínez, CEO of Eurobattery Minerals.
