Background and reasons
ProfilGruppen is a supplier of customised aluminium extrusions and components.

The demand for aluminium profiles has since 2010 had a strong decline. During
2011 a cost improvement program was implemented, reducing the overhead cost by
approximately MSEK 25 on a yearly basis, equivalent to 42 full time employees.
In order to counteract a quick fall in production volumes a number of customer
contract’s was signed that, over time, has become disadvantageous for the
Company. During 2013 ProfilGruppen heavily increased its sales and marketing
resources which in the short term burden the result.

The expected financial recovery has taken longer than expected and it is the
Board’s evaluation that the development of the result risks to harm the
customer’s, suppliers and creditor’s confidence in ProfilGruppen. In order to
strengthen the Companies financial position and show that the owners has a long
term confidence in the Company the Board of Directors resolved, subject to the
Extraordinary General Meeting’s approval, on a new share issue of approximately
SEK 40 million (before transaction costs). The rights issue proceeds will be
used in order to strengthen ProfilGruppens financial position and profitability

The Board of Directors of ProfilGruppen believes that the combined impact of the
increased sales and marketing resources and the rights issue will improve the
Company's financial position and increase profitability.

The rights issue
The Board of Directors has on 19 May 2014 resolved, subject to the Extraordinary

General Meeting’s approval, on a new share issue of approximately SEK 40 million
(before transaction costs), with preferential rights for the Company’s
shareholders, in proportion to the number of shares held as of the record date.
In the event that not all shares are subscribed for with preferential rights,
the Board of Directors shall resolve on the allotment of shares subscribed for
without subscription rights up to the maximum amount of the new share issue. In
such case, such shares shall be allotted to those who have subscribed for shares
by the exercise of subscription rights and notified that they wish to subscribe
for additional shares, irrespective of whether they were shareholders on the
record date, pro rata in relation to the number of subscription rights each one
has exercised for subscription. In so far as allotment in

accordance with the above cannot be executed pro rata, allotment shall be made
by drawing of lots. Any remaining shares shall be allotted those who have
provided guarantees for the share issue, pro rata in relation to the provided
guarantee undertakings.

The Board of Directors will no later than on 10 June 2014 resolve, and announce,
the maximum amount of the share capital increase, the number of subscription
rights received per share and the number of subscription rights required to
subscribe for a new share, the maximum number of shares to be issued and the
subscription price to be paid for each new share.

The record date for participation in the rights issue is 17 June 2014 and the
subscription period (subscription through payment) runs as from 19 June 2014 up
to and including 3 July 2014, with the right for the Board of Directors to
extend the subscription period. The trading in subscription rights is expected
to take place as from 19 June 2014 up to and including 30 June 2014.

The rights issue is subject to approval by the Extraordinary General Meeting,
which will be held on 11 June 2014. For further information, please see notice
of the Extraordinary General Meeting in separate press release.

Johansson, Mats and Kerstin Egeholm, have undertaken to exercise their
