Alpcot Agro and Alpcot Capital Management agree upon new terms of agreement

Alpcot Agro AB (publ) (“Alpcot Agro”, “the Company”) and Alpcot Capital
Management Ltd (“ACM”) have agreed to replace the Management agreement between
Alpcot Agro and ACM with a new agreement. During a transition period which will
last during the remainder of 2013, ACM will reduce its services to Alpcot Agro.
For services provided in 2013, Alpcot Agro will pay a remuneration of SEK 15
million to ACM, of which SEK 9 million in cash. This means that Alpcot Agro will
reduce its advisory related costs from ACM by SEK 24.5 million in the period up
to 31 January 2014, compared to the previous Management agreement.
When Alpcot Agro was founded in November 2006, the Company entered into a
Management agreement with ACM. The purpose of the agreement was that ACM would
serve as the Company’s investment adviser and execute its investment strategy
during a seven-year period expiring 31 January 2014.
Following a joint review of the Management agreement, Alpcot Agro and ACM have
agreed to replace the Management agreement in its current form with a new
agreement. During a transition period, ACM will gradually reduce its services to
Alpcot Agro. The transition period lasts during the calendar year 2013 in order
to ensure the completion of important ongoing projects. For services that are to
be rendered during the transition period, a fee of SEK 15 million will be paid,
whereof SEK 9 million in cash and the remainder in promissory notes that expire
on 31 October 2014. The agreement means that Alpcot Agro will reduce its
advisory related costs from ACM by SEK 24.5 million up to 31 January 2014, in
comparison to the previous Management agreement.

As part of the expiration of the Management agreement, Alpcot Agro will change
its name. This matter will be considered at the Company’s Annual General Meeting
which is scheduled to take place on 16 May 2013.

Simon Hallqvist, Chairman of the board of Alpcot Agro, comments:

”We are happy to have reached a mutual agreement with ACM. ACM has played a
central role in the development of Alpcot Agro ever since the company was
founded. More recently, functions have to an increasing extent been transferred
to the company and therefore this is the appropriate time to change the terms of
cooperation. By gradually phasing out the cooperation in 2013, we ensure both
the continuity of the operations and the successful completion of certain
important projects.”

Björn Lindström, partner at Alpcot Capital Management Ltd, comments:

”Alpcot Capital Management founded Alpcot Agro in the end of 2006 and has since
then focused on building a successful farming company. Despite challenging
conditions at times, Alpcot Agro has developed into one of the major farming
companies in Eastern Europe, with attractive assets and a favourable outlook to
generate healthy profits over the coming years.”
