costs related to the transaction
· The rights issue is fully guaranteed by means of subscription undertakings
from existing shareholders including JCE Group and by means of guarantee
undertakings from external investors

On 30 August 2012, Cybercom Group AB (publ) announced that the Board of
Directors has resolved on a new share issue not exceeding SEK 127 million with
preferential rights for the Company's shareholders for the purpose of strengthen
the company’s capital structure and thereby create prerequisites for the
measures now being undertaken in Cybercom to achieve the company’s long term
financial targets where focus is improved profitability and reduced net debt.
The rights issue is fully guaranteed by means of subscription undertakings from
existing shareholders including JCE Group and by means of guarantee undertakings
from external investors.
The Board of Directors has now resolved on the subscription price and the terms
for the rights issue. Shareholders in Cybercom will have preferential right to
subscribe for four (4) new shares for every existing share held on the record
date for the rights issue which is 4 October 2012. Each share in Cybercom shall
entitle to four (4) subscription rights and one (1) subscription right entitles
to subscription for one (1) new share. The subscription price has been set to
SEK 0.87 per share. This corresponds to a discount of approximately 42 percent
compared to the theoretical ex-right price, based on the last close price for
the Cybercom share as of 26 September 2012 on NASDAQ OMX Stockholm.
If all shares are not subscribed for on the basis of subscription rights the
Board of Directors shall decide on allotment to those who have subscribed
without preferential right. Allotment will be made in accordance with the
following: (i) firstly to those who have subscribed with subscription rights,
regardless if the subscriber was a shareholder or not on the record date, and in
the event of oversubscription in relation to the number of exercised
subscription rights in the rights issue, and if such allotment cannot be made,
it will be made by drawing of lots (ii) secondarily to those who have subscribed
without subscription rights, and, in case of oversubscriptions, in relation to
the number of shares each of them have subscribed for, and if such allotment
cannot be made, it will be made by drawing of lots (iii) finally to the
guarantors of the rights issue which Cybercom has entered into underwriting
agreements with.
The total rights issue proceeds will be approximately SEK 125.6 million if the
rights issue is fully subscribed, excluding costs related to the transaction.
The rights issue is subject to approval by Cybercom’s Extraordinary General
Meeting to be held on 1 October 2012 at 16:00 CET. The notice to extra general
meeting was announced on 30 August 2012 and is available on Cybercom's website
www.cybercom.se. Record date at Euroclear Sweden AB for receiving subscription
rights is 4 October 2012. The subscription period will run from and including 9
October up to and including 23 October 2012 or such later date as resolved on by
the Board of Directors.
Amendments of the Articles of Association
The Board of Directors' resolution on the rights issue also requires a change of
the Articles of Association with regards to the limits of the share capital and
the number of shares. Based on the conditions of subscription determined by the
Board of Directors, amendments in accordance with the Board of Directors'
proposals under item 9, alternative 2, on the agenda for the Extraordinary
General Meeting, are required, which means that the share capital limits are
changed from the current limits of not less than SEK 12,435,757 and not more
than SEK 49,743,028 to not less than SEK 37,500,000 and not more than SEK
150,000,000 and the limits of the number of shares are changed from the current
limits of not less than 12,435,757 and not more than 49,743,028 to not less than
150,000,000 and not more than 600,000,000. Consequently, the Board of Directors
has resolved to withdraw the proposal according to item 9, alternative 1, on the
agenda for the Extraordinary General Meeting. The notice to the general meeting
in its entirety is available on Cybercom's website www.cybercom.se.
The amendments of the Articles of Association results in a decrease in the share
capital prior to the rights issue and that the quota value is changed from SEK
1.00 to SEK 0.25. At full subscription in the rights issue, the share capital
increases by SEK 36,087,899 to SEK 45,109,873.75.
