Background and reasons

Aspiro is a supplier of streaming services for music and tv to partners using
their own brands for the services, as well as through the Company’s own music
streaming service, WiMP. Aspiro has more than ten years’ experience within the
provision of mobile services to consumers in northern Europe. The Company’s
music services (“Music”) develop and offer digital music solutions that allow
the users to listen to music directly through their internet connections or
download tracks and albums to their computers or mobile phones. Aspiro’s tv
services (“TV”) include development and operation of complete tv and video
solutions through mobile or web-based units compatible with different types of
screens. The Company’s business also includes a directory enquiries service
through sms (“Mobile Search”).

2011 was characterized by focusing the business and strong growth, which
contributed to Aspiro’s development as one of the leading streaming companies.
Management sees a bright future and intends to maintain the strong growth of the
Company. The growth is primarily attributed to Music, where sales during 2011
grew by 147 percent compared to 2010. During 2011, the Company entered into an
agreement with Norwegian Canal Digital, resulting in WiMP came to be included in
tv subscriptions from Canal Digital and available to 700,000 customers. Aspiro
has launched WiMP in the German market and prepares to launch in the Dutch
market.

It is the management’s and the Board of Director’s view that Aspiro’s present
financial assets are not sufficient to realize the Company’s growth potential.
As a result of this, the Board of Directors has resolved on the Rights Issue,
which will bring approximately SEK 100 million to the Company.

It is the Board of Directors’ opinion that Aspiro with its present strategy and
ongoing activities in combination with a capital raising will benefit the
Company’s owners and create conditions for the profitability potential that the
Company possesses.

The Rights Issue

The Board of Directors of Aspiro has during the afternoon on 28 June 2012
resolved, subject to the approval by the General Meeting, on a new share issue
of approximately SEK 100 million with preferential right for the Company’s
existing shareholders in proportion to their share holdings as of the record
date, 16 August 2012.

If not all shares are subscribed for through the exercise of subscription
rights, the Board of Directors shall, within the limit of the highest amount of
the Rights Issue, decide on allotment of shares without the exercise of
subscription rights, whereby such shares shall firstly be allotted those who
have subscribed for shares exercising subscription rights, regardless whether
they were shareholders on the record date, pro rata in relation to the number of
subscription rights that each one has exercised for subscription, and secondly
be allotted to others who have applied for subscription of shares without
subscription rights, pro rata in relation to the number of shares they have
applied for. To the extent that the allotment cannot be made pro rata according
to the above, it will be made by the drawing of lots.

The subscription period runs from and including 20 August 2012 up to and
including 3 September 2012, or such later date decided by the Board of
Directors. The Company will no later than on 10 August 2012 announce the
increase of the share capital, the number of subscription rights received per
share and the number of subscription rights required for subscription for one
new share, the number of shares to be issued and the subscription price.

Subscription of shares by the exercise of subscription rights shall be made
through simultaneous cash payment. Subscription of shares without the exercise
of subscription rights shall be made on a separate subscription list and
subscribed shares shall be paid in cash no later than three (3) banking days
after the notice of allotment has been sent to the subscriber, or such later
date as the Board of Directors may decide. The new shares will entitle to
dividends for the first time on the record date of the dividend that takes place
