General meeting resolves upon new share issue of Hoist International AB (publ) against payment in kind


General meeting resolves upon new share issue of Hoist International AB (publ)
against payment in kind by way of perpetual convertible debentures issued by its
subsidiary Hoist Kredit AB (publ).
In October 2012, Hoist Kredit AB (publ) (“Hoist Kredit”) issued perpetual tier 1
convertible debentures with an aggregate principal amount of SEK 100,000,000. At
an extraordinary general meeting of its parent company, Hoist International AB
(publ) (“Hoist International”), held on 3 December 2014, it was resolved to
issue new shares of Hoist International to the holders of the convertible
debentures in exchange for their debentures.

Subscription for Hoist International shares and the exchange of the convertible
debentures, through which the CEO of Hoist Finance will become a shareholder in
Hoist International, is expected to take place on or around 10 December.
Immediately upon acquiring the convertible debentures, Hoist International will
have exercised the right to convert the convertibles into shares in Hoist
Kredit, so that SEK 100,000,000 of additional tier 1 capital of the Hoist group
is converted into core equity tier 1 capital.

Through the transaction, the core tier 1 capital ratio of the Group as of 30
September 2014 (pro forma) will increase from 9.01% to 10.03%.
