Lindex agrees on terms for financing its proposed recapitalisation

It has been decided that the breakdown between cash and bonds of the 3 billon
kronor recapitalisation proposed by Lindex's board shall be 2 billion kronor in
cash and 1 billion kronor in the form of subordinated bonds. This corresponds to
some 44 kronor per share, of which 29 kronor in cash and 15 kronor in the form
of listed bonds.

On September 7, as the first stage in its recapitalisation, AB Lindex has
arranged a two billion kronor line of credit.

As previously announced, Lindex's Board has recommended shareholders to reject
KappAhl's bid of 102 kronor per share. The Board intends to propose that an
Extraordinary General Meeting resolve instead in favour of a recapitalisation of
the company, whereby Lindex's shareholders will receive three billion kronor.
The Board's recommendation is based primarily on an analysis of the company's
capital requirements and the new situation brought about by the new Swedish
Companies Act.

In connection with the recapitalisation a one billion kronor subordinated bond
will be issued to Lindex's shareholders. According to the proposal, the bond
will be listed and carry interest at the normal market rate.

The line of credit is for five years, and the estimated average rate of interest
during its term will be 5.5 %.

“Now that we can announce the details of the financing package, the market can
estimate the value of the proposed recapitalisation without any uncertainty
regarding the balance between cash and the bond,” says Conny Karlsson, chairman
of Lindex.
