Therefore, the 18,288,674 shares validly tendered in the public offer (including the shares under the control of Sami Ensio, excluding certain shares received as board remuneration totaling 148,127), which represent approximately 50.32 percent of Innofactor Plc's shares and voting rights, will be transferred to the ownership of Onni Bidco Oy following the completion of the transactions related to the public tender offer, with the transfer expected to be finalized around October 10, 2024.

According to an agreement between the consortium members, Sami Ensio has undertaken, subject to certain conditions and potential limitations, to accept the public tender offer in respect of all Innofactor Plc shares under his control. As the consortium members are acting in consert in making the public tender offer, the 148,127 shares obtained as board remuneration that are still under the control of Sami Ensio disclosed in this notification are disclosed as ownership based on a financial instrument. Although the ownership of the parties acting in concert now exceeds both 30 and 50 percent of the voting rights generated by Innofactor Plc's shares, there is no obligation to make a mandatory public tender offer due to the exemption provided by Section 21, first paragraph, of Chapter 11 of the Securities Markets Act.
