If your warrants are nominee registered

Subscription and payment of new shares, by exercise of warrants, shall be made to the account-holding bank/nominee with which the warrants are registered.

If you do not find these instructions, please contact your bank or trustee. Please note that banks and other nominees may set different time limits for the last day for subscription, hence it is recommended to contact the account-holding bank/nominee early in the exercise period. Subscribed and payed for shares may be entered as "interim shares" or "IA" into your securities custody account until registration of the new shares is completed with the Swedish Companies Registration Office, whereby interim shares will automatically be converted to shares in Sotkamo Silver.
