An Extraordinary General Meeting in CDON Group, held on 24 September 2010, resolved to carry out a set-off share issue, by which MTG has subscribed to a total of 65,545,122 shares in CDON Group, at a price of SEK 3.646 per share (the “Share Issue”). Payment for the shares has been made through a SEK 239,000,000 set-off of MTG’s receivable on CDON Group. The share capital of CDON Group has increased to SEK 132,090,244 through the Share Issue, and CDON Group now has a total of 66,045,122 issued shares.
The dividend of CDON Group shares is conditional upon the registration of the Share Issue in CDON Group with the Swedish Companies Registration Office; the approval for listing of the company’s shares by Nasdaq OMX Stockholm; and the review and approval of the related prospectus by the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority not later than 28 February 2011. The intention is that the CDON Group shares be listed and commence trading on Nasdaq OMX Stockholm after the dividend has been made.
