The share issues
The board of directors, with the approval at the Extra General Meeting on October 17, 2011 has resolved to make a directed share issue totaling 1.000.000 shares for a subscription price of SEK 12 for each new share.

Eldorado Gold Corporation has, with deviation from the shareholders' preferential right to subscribe for the shares, the right to subscribe for the 1.000.000 new shares.

The share issue of 1.000.000 shares has been fully subscribed for and has been allotted and payment must be made in cash at the latest on 15 November 2011.

The purpose of the share issues and the reason to deviate from the shareholders' preferential right to subscribe for the shares is to collect financing for the company's continuing operations and to increase the spreading of the shareholding in connection therewith and also to reinforce the circle of shareholders with a shareholder which has a significant experience of the industry. The deviation from the shareholders' preferential right to subscribe for the new shares is outweighed by the fact that the new shareholder has the intention to become involved in the company’s business and this will contribute to a continued positive development for the company and it will benefit the current shareholders.
