The board of directors of Acarix AB ("Acarix" or the "Company") has today, pursuant to the authorization granted by the extra general meeting on 16 August 2019, resolved to carry out a new share issue of a maximum of 34,541,064 shares with preferential rights for the Company's existingshareholders at a subscription price of SEK 1.50 per share, which may provide the Company with approximately SEK 51.8 million before deduction of transaction costs (the "Rights Issue").

Acarix has received subscription undertakings and guarantee commitments from external investors totaling approximately SEK 43 million (approximately 83 percent of the Rights Issue), of which approximately SEK 10 million is attributable to subscription undertakings through transferred subscription rights and approximately SEK 33 million is attributable to guarantee commitments. The amount from SEK 43 million up to approximately SEK 51.8 million in the Rights Issue is therefore not covered by guarantee undertakings. The Rights Issue is carried out for purposes of financing an increased market expansion in Europe until sales volume has increased.
