Instructions to SDR holders who have received Swedish subscription rights in Beowulf:

You can have your SDRs in Beowulf registered in two ways:

  • In a securities custody account with a bank or other nominee (for example, Avanza or Nordnet), in an investment savings account (Sw. Investeringssparkonto) or endowment account (Sw. Kapitalförsäkring). Your SDRs are thereby nominee registered.
  • In a VP-account (direct registered holding).

If your SDRs are nominee registered, option 1 above.

Usually, you just need to log in to your depository to get instructions on how to subscribe. If you cannot find these instructions, please contact your nominee and they will help you. Please note that in the case of subscription rights being exercised via a bank or a nominee, it is recommended to do so early in the subscription period as banks and nominees may have different deadlines for the subscription deadline.

If your SDRs are directly registered, option 2 above.

Issue statement (pre-printed payment slip),

You have received a pre-printed issue account statement which shows the number of Swedish subscription rights received and the number of new SDRs that can be subscribed for. In case you want to use all Swedish subscription rights received, please manage cash payment in accordance with the payment account statement.

Subscription form with the support of subscription rights

In the event that a different number of subscription rights than what is stated in the pre-printed issue report from Euroclear is used for subscription, the special subscription form must be used. Registration for subscription by payment must take place in accordance with the instructions stated on the special subscription form. The pre-printed payment slip from Euroclear must therefore not be used. A special subscription form can be ordered from Aqurat by phone or e-mail.

The special subscription form must be at Aqurat's disposal no later than 5 May 2025 at 1.00 p.m. (Swedish time). Any application form that is sent by post should therefore be sent in good time before the last day of subscription. Only one entry form per person or legal entity will be considered. In the event that more than one registration form is submitted, only the last one received will be considered. Incomplete or incorrectly completed special subscription forms may be disregarded. The application is binding.

Completed special subscription form is sent or delivered to:

Aqurat Fondkommission AB

Ärende: Beowulf Mining

Box 7461

103 92 Stockholm

Tfn: 08-684 05 800

Please note: Swedish subscription rights must be exercised no later than 5 May 2025 (1.00 p.m. Swedish time) or sold no later than 29 April 2025, in order not to become void or lose their value.

Further information on how to subscribe in the Rights Issue can be found in the Prospectus and the English information folder available at Beowulf's website (https://beowulfmining.com/capital-raising-2025), Evli Plc's webpage (https://evli.com) and Aqurat Fondkommison's website (www.aqurat.se).
