Seamless acquires MeaWallet AS through an issue in kind of new shares and simultaneously carries out a private placement


Seamless Distribution AB (publ) (”Seamless”) acquires the Norwegian technology
company MeaWallet AS (“MeaWallet”). The purchase price amounts to approximately
SEK 42,8 million and payment is made through an issue in kind of 4,574,328 new
shares in Seamless. Through the acquisition Seamless controls important
technology in the rapidly growing field of contactless payments. At the same
time the company has carried out a direct issue of new shares in a private
placement of approximately SEK 50 million  to private and institutional
investors.
– “Our mobile solution SEQR already uses MeaWallet´s technology to facilitate
contactless payments so we are well acquainted with the company. Their
solutions, including Host Card Emulation (HCE), are technologically leading and
it is a strategically crucial technology for mobile payments that we now
control”, says Peter Fredell, CEO of Seamless, who continues:

– “The acquisition also enables us to open a new business area where we will
sell MeaWallet´s technology to institutions who want to establish themselves in
the mobile payments market.  Here we expect to see rapid expansion as the
solutions provided by MeaWallet are crucial for mobile payments”.

About the acquisition of MeaWallet

Seamless has entered into an agreement with the shareholders of MeaWallet
regarding the acquisition of shares, shareholders’ contributions and convertible
debentures in MeaWallet. The board of directors has, pursuant to an
authorisation granted at the 2016 annual general meeting, resolved on a share
issue in kind as per below. The purchase price amounts to SEK 42,769,965 in
aggregate, and the payment will be made through the issue in kind of 4,574,328
new shares in Seamless to existing holders of shares, shareholder loans and
convertible debentures in MeaWallet, where 2,637,968 shares will be paid with
shares in MeaWallet and 1,936,360 shares will be paid with shareholder loans and
convertible debentures. The board of directors of Seamless has, on, pursuant to
an authorisation granted at the 2016 annual general meeting, resolved on the
issue in kind of the consideration shares.

The subscription has been established to SEK 9.35. The agreement regarding the
acquisition was signed on 16 June 2016. The transaction will be closed on July
20 or such earlier date which may be agreed between the parties.

MeaWallet, incorporated in 2012, had a turnover of NOK 1 270 767 and a loss of
NOK 14 403 359 during the financial year 2015. The company provides technical
solutions for cloud based payment services and is a leader in the field of Host
Card Emulation (HCE), a technology for issuing digital payment cards. Through
the acquisition of MeaWallet, Seamless acquires important technology for the
SEQR business. At the same time the acquisition opens a new business area for
Seamless where the technology can be sold to institutions who want to establish
themselves within the field of mobile payments.

About the private placement

At the same time as the issue in kind described above, the board of directors of
Seamless resolved to carry out a directed issue in a private placement. The
subscription price was set to SEK 9 based on a book building process to private
and institutional investors completed in July 2016 by Evli Bank Plc. The
subscription price corresponds to a discount of approximately 11 per cent
compared to closing price on July 11, 2016 and a discount of approximately 4 per
cent compared to the volume weighted average price for last 30 trading days. The
issue will raise SEK 50,000,000 for Seamless and a total of 5,555,556 shares
have been issued. Payment for the shares shall be made in cash not later than
July 15, 2016 or such later date as the board of directors resolves.

The issue has been implemented with deviation from the shareholders’
preferential rights and the right to subscribe for the shares was only granted
to a limited number of private and institutional investors who have been
identified through a book-building process, arranged by Evli Bank Plc. A number
of the subscribers are existing shareholders of Seamless. The purpose of the
issue, and the reason for the deviation from the shareholders’ preferential
right, was to strengthen Seamless financial position. According to the Board of
Directors’ assessment, a private placement of shares was, at this point in time,
the most favourable way to strengthen Seamless financial position and the Board
of Directors believes that the approach chosen for this issue does not grant an
unfair advantage for the subscribers.

Dilution etc.

The shares issues described above will entail a total dilution for the current
shareholders of Seamless of approximately 17.24 per cent, after full dilution,
of which the private placement described above entails a dilution of
approximately 9.45 per cent and the issue in kind will entail a dilution of
approximately 7.78 per cent. Seamless will publish a prospectus in connection
with the admission to trading of the newly issued shares. The prospectus is
expected to be available on Seamless’ website (www.seamless.se) in the third
quarter of 2016.
