Finansinspektionen) or any other public authority and is intended to be read by the addressee only. An offering prospectus relating to the Subsequent Notes has not been registered under any law or regulation and no such prospectus will be prepared or registered in relation to the private placement of the Subsequent Notes considered herein.

Under no circumstances may the Issuer or its board of directors or management be contacted without the Sole Bookrunner's prior permission. All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this Investor Presentation including, without limitation, those regarding the Group's financial position, budgets, business strategy, management plans and objectives for future operations are forward-looking statements (when used in this document, the words "anticipate", "believe", "estimate" and "expect" and similar expressions, as they relate to the Group or its management, are intended to identify forward-looking statements). Such forward-looking statements reflect the current views of the Group or its management with respect to future events and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Neither the Group nor the Sole Bookrunner can give any assurance as to the correctness of such forward-looking statements. Many factors could cause the actual results, performances and achievements of the Group to be materially different from any future results, performances or achievements that may be expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements, including among others, risks or uncertainties associated with the Group's services, technological development, growth management, relations with customers and, more generally, economic and business conditions, budgets, changes in domestic and foreign laws and regulations (including those of the European Union), taxes, changes in competition and pricing environments, and other factors referenced in this document. Some of these factors are discussed in more detail under heading "Risk Factors", in this Investor Presentation. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialise, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results, performances, achievements or industry results may vary materially from those described or implied in this document as anticipated, believed, estimated or expected. Further, the forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Investor Presentation and the Sole Bookrunner and the Group expressly disclaim, except as required by applicable law, any obligation or undertaking to release any update of, or revisions to, any forward-looking statements in this Investor Presentation as a result of any changes. By accepting receipt of this Investor Presentation, each recipient acknowledges that it has received the information set out herein and that it accepts the terms of the Subsequent Notes Issue as set out herein, the application form related to the Subsequent Notes Issue (the "Application Form") as well as in the terms and conditions dated 20 February 2018 (the "Terms and Conditions"), the short form notes term sheet (the "Term Sheet") governing the Subsequent Notes and the intercreditor agreement dated 6 March 2018 (the "Intercreditor Agreement"). Each recipient acknowledges that the Term Sheet sets out only the principal terms for the Subsequent Notes Issue and that the Terms and Conditions contain further provisions which are not reflected in the Term Sheet. IMPORTANT NOTICE | POLYGON 2#4Important notice (cont'd) The information regarding the terms of the Subsequent Notes Issue in this Investor Presentation, the Term Sheet and the Application Form is only intended to constitute a summary and any investor investing in the Subsequent Notes is bound by the Terms and Conditions and the Intercreditor Agreement. The Terms and Conditions and the Intercreditor Agreement, which the investor acknowledges having accepted by investing in the Subsequent Notes, will be made available by the Sole Bookrunner upon written request. Any information contained in this Investor Presentation is subject to change and in case of any discrepancies between the Terms and Conditions and the terms presented in this Investor Presentation and/or the Application Form, the provisions of the Terms and Conditions shall prevail. The Issuer is under no obligation to accept offers or proposals and the Issuer reserves the right to change the process or terminate negotiations at any time before a binding agreement has been reached. The Issuer also reserves the right to negotiate with any party and with any number of parties it wishes. Potential investors' costs in connection with the process shall be borne by the investor. This Investor Presentation is subject to Swedish law, unless otherwise explicitly stated. Any dispute arising in respect of this Investor Presentation is subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Swedish courts with the Stockholm District Court being the court of first instance. References to credit ratings There may be references to credit ratings in this Investor Presentation. A credit rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to revision, suspension or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating agency. Each credit rating should be evaluated independently of any other credit rating. Professional investors and eligible counterparties' only target market Solely for the purposes of the manufacturer's (as used herein, "Manufacturer" refers to Nordea Bank Abp) product approval process, the target market assessment in respect of the Subsequent Notes has led to the conclusion that: (i) the target market for the Subsequent Notes is eligible counterparties and professional clients only, each as defined in Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended, "MiFID II"); and (ii) all channels for distribution of the Subsequent Notes to eligible counterparties and professional clients are appropriate. Any person subsequently offering, selling or recommending the Subsequent Notes (a "Distributor") should take into consideration the Manufacturer's target market assessment; however, a Distributor subject to MiFID II is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the Subsequent Notes (by either adopting or refining the Manufacturer's target market assessment) and determining appropriate distribution channels. PRIIPs Regulation and prohibition of sales to EEA retail investors The Subsequent Notes are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the European Economic Area ("EEA"). For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II; or (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive 2002/92/EC (as amended, the "Insurance Mediation Directive"), where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II; or (iii) not a qualified investor as defined in the Prospectus Regulation. Consequently no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (as amended, the "PRIIPS Regulation") for offering or selling the Subsequent Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Subsequent Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPS Regulation. U.S Restrictions The Subsequent Notes are being offered and sold only outside the United States to persons other than U.S. persons or non-U.S. purchasers in reliance upon Regulation S. Until 40 days after the commencement of the offering, any offer or sale of the Subsequent Notes within the United States by any dealer may violate the registration requirements of the Securities Act if such offer or sale is made otherwise than pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act. Each purchaser of the Subsequent Notes, by its acceptance thereof, will be deemed to have acknowledged, represented to and agreed with the Issuer and with the Sole Bookrunner that such purchaser is not a U.S. person and is acquiring such Subsequent Notes for its own account or for the account of a non-U.S. person in an offshore transaction (as defined in Regulation S) pursuant to an exemption from registration provided by Regulation S. IMPORTANT NOTICE | POLYGON 3#5Important notice (cont'd) An investment in the Subsequent Notes may not be suitable for all investors Each potential investor in the Subsequent Notes must determine the suitability of that investment in light of its own circumstances. In particular, each potential investor should a) have sufficient knowledge and experience to make a meaningful evaluation of the Subsequent Notes, the merits and risks of investing in the Subsequent Notes and the information contained or incorporated by reference in this Investor Presentation or any applicable supplement; b) have access to, and knowledge of, appropriate analytical tools to evaluate, in the context of its particular financial situation, an investment in the Subsequent Notes and the impact the investment in the Subsequent Notes will have on its overall investment portfolio; c) have sufficient financial resources and liquidity to bear all of the risks of an investment in the Subsequent Notes; d) understand thoroughly the Terms and Conditions and the Intercreditor Agreement; and e) be able to evaluate (either alone or with the help of a financial advisor) possible scenarios for economic, interest rate and other factors that may affect its investment and its ability to bear the applicable risks. Service of process; enforcement of liability The Issuer is a public limited liability company existing under the laws of Sweden. The directors and executives of the Issuer reside in Sweden or other European countries. As a result, it may not be possible for investors (i) to effect service of process in other jurisdictions than Sweden upon such persons or the Issuer, or (ii) to enforce judgments against such persons or the Issuer obtained in courts outside the Kingdom of Sweden predicated upon the civil liabilities of the Issuer or such directors or officers under laws other than Swedish law.

The financial performance of the Group and the risks associated with its business are important when making a decision on whether to invest in the Notes. A number of risk factors and uncertainties may adversely affect the Group. If any of these risks or uncertainties occur, the business, earnings and financial position of the Group could be materially and adversely affected, which ultimately could affect the Company's ability to make payments of interest and repayments of principal under the Terms and Conditions. In this section, a number of risk factors are described, namely specific and material risks pertaining to the Group's business operations and the Notes as financial instruments. The risks presented here are not the only risks potentially affecting the Group's business operations and relating to the Notes as financial instruments. Additional risks presently unknown to the Group or currently deemed immaterial may also adversely affect the Group, the price of the Notes and the Company's ability to service its debt obligations. Potential investors are therefore recommended to make their own evaluation of the significance of the Group's business operations and future development of the risk factors below as well as other currently unknown risks or risks currently deemed to be immaterial by the Group. The risk factor that the Group deems as the single most material, with respect to the probability and expected magnitude of its negative impact if it were to materialise, is presented first in each category below. Thereafter following risk factors in each category are not ranked in order of importance. The materiality of each risk factor with respect to the probability and expected magnitude of its negative impact if it were to materialise, is indicated by using a scale of low, medium or high, as assessed by the Company. Risks relating to the group Risks related to the Company's Business Activities and Industry High level risks Risks relating to agreements with insurance companies The Group is to a large extent dependent on its key customers, the insurance companies, and must maintain mutually beneficial relationships with them to compete effectively. The services conducted for the Group's insurance company customers represent approximately two-thirds of the Group's total business operations. As the frame agreements entered into with the insurance companies normally do not contain any volume undertakings or other purchase commitments by the insurance companies towards the Group, changes in the insurance companies' strategies or purchasing patterns may adversely affect the Group's sales. Disagreements or deterioration of the Group's relationship with any of its key customers could lead to loss of current or future sales of the Group's services, which would have an adverse effect on the Group's business, earnings and financial position. Risks relating to key personnel The Group is dependent on the skills, experience and commitment of a number of key employees who have together developed the efficient day-to-day operations and systems within the Group and valuable customer relationships. These key employees are of great importance for the Group's future, especially when it comes to implementing its growth strategy and other strategic objectives, continuously developing the Group's services, and effectively directing, managing and controlling the Group's operations in a competitive market. Such key personnel may leave the Group in the future, and they may take up employment with a competing business. Further, the Group's future growth and ultimately its continued success depends on its ability to attract, recruit and retain qualified personnel with the level of expertise and knowledge of its business operations and industry required to conduct the Group's operations in accordance with the Group's strategic objectives from time to time. Any failure to retain key employees with specialised knowledge relating to the Group's business operations and industry, and/or the Group's failure to recruit such qualified persons in the future, could impair the Group's business operations and continued growth, which would have an adverse effect on the Group's business and consequently its earnings and financial position. Risks related to acquisitions As a part of the Group's growth strategy, the Group aims to evaluate and acquire companies and businesses in different geographic markets that are in line with the Group's strategic objectives. The Group has also made such acquisitions in the past, e.g. the acquisitions of Dansk Bygningskontrol A/S in Denmark during 2018, The Plastic Surgeon group in the United Kingdom and Alvisa Holding AG in Switzerland, both during 2019. Such acquisitions may involve obligations and risks related to their nature or value. In each situation where the Group decides to pursue such acquisitions, there is a risk that the Group will not be able to finalise such acquisitions within the required timeframe, at the desired price and commercial terms, or at all. In addition, there may be irregularities and risks in the acquired companies, not identified by the Group prior to the finalisation of such acquisitions. Future acquisition activities may present certain financial, managerial and operational risks, including diversion of management's attention from existing core business, difficulties when integrating or separating businesses and challenges presented by acquisitions, which may not achieve sales levels and profitability that justify the investments made. In addition, companies involved in transactions are generally subject to risk of employees, including senior management and other key employees, leaving the acquired or acquiring company. Especially in a situation where the Group is looking to add capabilities through add-on acquisitions, the failure to retain the services of the acquired company's key personnel could jeopardise the rationale of the acquisition. Furthermore, future and past acquisitions may result in obligations to pay additional purchase price to sellers or obligations to purchase additional shares in companies partially owned by the Group, possibly affecting the Group's financial position. If the acquisitions are not successfully integrated, the Group's business, earnings or financial position may be adversely affected. Future acquisitions could also result in dilutive issuances of the Group's equity securities, the incurrence of debt, contingent liabilities, amortisation costs, impairment of goodwill or restructuring charges, any of which could have an adverse effect on the Group's business, earnings or financial position. SUPPORTING MATERIALS | POLYGON 47#49Risk factors (cont'd) Risks relating to IT infrastructure The Group depends on information technology to manage critical business processes, such as accounting and enterprise resource planning, including administrative functions and the protection of personal data. The Group uses IT systems for internal purposes and externally in relation to its suppliers and customers. Extensive downtime of network servers, attacks by IT-viruses or other disruptions or failure of information technology systems are possible and could have an adverse effect on the Group's operations. It should further be noted that the main customers of the Group, i.e. insurance companies, generally have strict requirements regarding privacy and data protection. A failure or disruption of the information technology systems could cause transaction errors and loss of customers as well as sales, and could have an adverse effect on the Group's business, earnings or financial position. Medium level risks Global economic and market conditions A lengthy economic downturn or a sustained loss of consumer confidence in the markets in which the Group operates could trigger a decrease in demand for the Group's services and a decline in sales for the industry as well as for the Group. This could have an adverse effect on the Group's business, earnings or financial position. Risks relating to the business model The Group is active in the property damage restoration business, e.g. work related to water damage restoration, fire damage restoration and document restoration. The business is thus to a large extent dependent on circumstances beyond the Group's control, including, inter alia, water leaks, fires, outdoor temperature, natural disasters and the weather. These circumstances vary within each country and region where the Group conducts its services. Further, part of the Group's cost structure is fixed, the proceeds of the operations are to some extent unpredictable and may vary from time to time as a result of this dependency. Adverse developments outside the Group's control relating to weather and climate events affecting the demand for the Group's property damage restoration services may lead to a loss of sales, and if the Group cannot maintain a flexible cost structure to address such losses, this could result in an adverse effect on the Group's earnings and financial position. Negative publicity The Group relies on its brand and reputation to maintain and attract new customers, employees and other stakeholders. If the brand and reputation of the Group is damaged, the Group's customers, employees and other stakeholders could lose confidence in the Group. For instance, any negative publicity or announcement relating to the Group may, whether or not it is justifiable, deteriorate the brand value and reputation of the Group and consequently lead to, e.g., a loss of current and future customers and sales, which would have an adverse effect on the Group's business and earnings. Risks relating to competitive landscape The Group has a large number of competitors across different product and service categories, segments and geographic markets, some of whom may have greater financial and operational resources than the Group. The Group's future possibilities to compete are, among other things, dependent upon the Group's ability to anticipate future market changes and trends, to rapidly react on existing and future market needs, and to attract new customers and retain current customers, which may result in increased costs for redevelopment of its services, require price reductions and/or changes to the Group's business model. If the Group fails to meet the competition from new and existing companies, this could have an adverse effect on the Group's business, earnings or financial position. Low level risks Risks relating to sourcing equipment The Group is dependent upon its ability to source new equipment, and to maintain the equipment owned by the Group, that are required to carry out the Group's operations. If such sourcing should not be successful, it could damage the Group's reputation and its relationships with its customers, resulting in an adverse effect on the Group's business, earnings or financial position. SUPPORTING MATERIALS | POLYGON 48#50Risk factors (cont'd) Risks relating to the use of sub-contractors The Group's ability to service its customers depends to some extent on the availability of local sub-contractors as the subsidiaries of the Company frequently uses local sub-contractors across the markets to conduct the property damage restoration services. If the Group cannot secure an appropriate sub-contractor for a specific job, it may have an adverse effect on services provided to the customer. Further, the use of sub-contractors requires the Group to monitor its so called "back-to-back"-protection, i.e. to make sure that any claim from a customer against the Group that relates to work carried out by the sub-contractor, can be passed on to the sub-contractor. The back-to-back- protection is also necessary when it comes to handling of personal data to avoid responsibility towards customers, in case the Group's sub-contractors are not in compliance with relevant personal data legislation. Should the Group be unable to secure appropriate sub-contractors to conduct its services, this would adversely affect the Group's ability to conduct its services in a satisfactory manner, and if the Group is unable to receive compensation from the sub- contractor and/or should the sub-contractor not be in compliance with relevant personal data legislation, this would result in additional costs for the Group and adversely affect the earnings and financial position of the Group. Agreement risk The Group generally does not accept larger projects for a fixed fee, but should the Group's internal procedures not be followed when quoting for an assignment and such assignment is accepted at a fixed fee, there is a risk that the relevant project becomes more expensive for the Group than expected, resulting in an adverse effect on the Group's margins and consequently its earnings. Risks relating to liability for damages incurred by the performance of the services The Group is generally liable for damages that is incurred by the performance of the services, or performed by a sub-contractor to the Group, and sometimes without a monetary cap. Should the Group not have sufficient and/or adequate insurance coverage in place, or should the back-to-back protection as mentioned above have gaps, the liability for damages incurred by the performance of the services and the subsequent increase in costs as a consequence of any such obligation to pay damages, could result in an adverse effect on the earnings and financial position of the Group. The Group depends on the financial health of its customers The Group's customers may face financial or other difficulties which may affect their operations and cause them to cancel or reduce their level of purchases from the Group, which could adversely affect the Group's business and earnings. Customers may also respond to any price increase that the Group may implement by reducing, or even terminating, their purchases from the Group, which could result in reduced sales for the Group. If sales of the Group's services to one or more of its largest customers are reduced, this reduction may have an adverse effect on the Group's earnings. Any bankruptcy or other business disruption involving one of the Group's significant customers could also adversely affect the Group's earnings or financial position. Risks relating to inadequate insurance coverage and procedures The Group mainly holds insurance policies covering general liability and product liability. If the Group is unable to maintain adequate insurance policies this may result in certain claims, e.g. from customers relating to property restoration projects, not being covered by an insurance policy. Further, inability to implement adequate procedures regarding filing and notifying the relevant insurance company may lead to claims, although covered by the insurance, being barred and the Group thus not receiving any compensation. If the Group is unable to maintain adequate insurance coverage or adequate filing procedures, this could have an adverse effect on the Group's business, earnings or financial position. Legal and regulatory risks Medium level risks Risks relating to bribes, corruption and anti-competition behaviour The Group is required to comply with anti-corruption, anti-bribery laws and competition laws in the countries in which the Group operates its business. Furthermore, the Group and the sub-contractors used by the Group, operate in different kind of fields relating to the construction industry. The construction industry in general is considered a high-risk industry when it comes to different kinds of anti-competitive behaviours, and has historically been exposed to legal disputes relating to bribery and cartels. The Group's operations could be adversely affected if the Group would, whether or not it is justifiable, become associated with illegal activities or otherwise unacceptable business methods, become the subject of investigations by competition authorities, find itself subject to an enforcement action or is found to be in violation of such laws or regulations. Such enforcement actions, associations or investigations could result in, inter alia, significant penalties, fines and/or sanctions being imposed on the Group, a negative perception of the Group among its current and future customers, problems in relationships with important contracting parties, e.g. insurance companies, or an adverse effect on the Group's ability to conduct major acquisitions, all which could have an adverse effect on the Group's business, earnings or financial position. SUPPORTING MATERIALS | POLYGON 49#51Risk factors (cont'd) Low level risks Risks relating to taxes and charges The Group currently operates in 14 countries. The Group's business and any intra-group transactions are conducted and performed in accordance with the Group's interpretation of applicable tax laws, tax agreements and other relevant regulations and applicable requirements and decisions from the relevant tax authority. It is possible that the Group's or its advisers' interpretations and applications of laws, provisions and judicial practice have been, or will at some point in the future be, incorrect. Moreover, tax authorities in the countries where the Group operates may make judgements or decisions that differ from the Group's understanding and interpretation of such laws and regulations. The Group's tax position, both for prior and current years, may change as a result of decisions taken by relevant tax authorities, or as a result of changes in legislation, tax agreements and other regulations. Such decisions or changes, which potentially could apply retroactively, could have an adverse effect on the Group's business, earnings and financial position. Risks relating to the geographic breadth and compliance with existing laws and regulations The Group currently operates its business in 14 countries and must accordingly observe several laws and regulations, including e.g. competition, construction, environmental and tax laws and regulations, in a large number of different regulatory systems across a number of jurisdictions. Ensuring compliance with such laws, regulations and permits entails administrative costs and may affect the Group's business, financial position earnings. There is a risk that the Group's interpretation of applicable laws, provisions and judicial practice has not been, or will in the future not be, correct or that such laws, provisions and practice will be changed, potentially with retroactive effect. If such change in legislation or practice should occur or if the relevant authority challenge the Group's interpretation of applicable laws, the Group may face sanctions by the relevant authority, which may have an adverse effect on the Group's business, earnings or financial position. New or amended legislations and regulations could call for unexpected costs, including costs for compliance work with regards to new or amended legislation or regulation, or impose restrictions on the development of the business operations or otherwise affect sales, and which could have an adverse effect on the Group's business, earnings or financial position. Risks relating to failure to comply with the General Data Protection Regulation The Group processes personal data, e.g., of its employees and its insurance company customers' end-customers in the course of its business operations. The European Union has adopted the relatively new general data protection regulation 2016/679/EU (the "GDPR"), which applies from 25 May 2018. The GDPR includes new requirements for the handling of personal data. There is a risk that the measures taken by the Group to maintain and process personal data in compliance with the GDPR could prove to be insufficient or that, for instance, a misinterpretation of the GDPR would lead to that the Group is considered as not fully compliant. Failure to comply with the GDPR may subject the Group to significant monetary fines, which could have an adverse effect on the business, operating results and financial position of the Group. Risks relating to environmental laws and regulations According to the polluter pays-principle under Swedish environmental law, and similar principles may apply according to environmental laws of other relevant jurisdictions, the operator who has contributed to pollutions will be responsible for remediation. When the Group and/or its sub-contractors carry out property damage restoration work, there is, e.g., a risk of leaks which could result in environmental pollution. Claims may be directed at the Group for cleaning up or after-treatment of incidents as a result of acts or omissions of its employees or sub-contractors causing environmental pollution, and the Group may not have adequate protection in its customer or sub-contractor agreements to ensure that the customer or sub-contractor is solely responsible for the clean up and after-treatment of such incidents. All such claims towards the Group could have an adverse effect on the Group's business, earnings and financial position. Risks relating to legal disputes and claims Within its ordinary course of business, the Group may be the subject to complaints, claims, disputes and subsequent litigation or arbitral proceedings from its customers, employees and/or other third parties alleging environmental, safety, data protection, operational or other concerns, nuisance, negligence or failure to comply with laws and regulations as well as agreements. Disputes are generally connected to property restoration projects that have been carried out by the Group several years ago. Hence, it is difficult for the Group to predict when disputes will arise. The risk of claims or legal action also relates to intellectual property rights, such as patents and trademarks, and the Group normally assumes liability for any infringement of third party intellectual property rights in relation to its customers. Any disputes, complaints and proceedings could result in significant costs for the Group and even if successfully resolved without direct adverse financial effect, could have an adverse effect on the Group's reputation among its customers, including presumptive customers, and divert its financial and management resources from more beneficial uses. SUPPORTING MATERIALS | POLYGON 50#52Risk factors (cont'd) Risks relating to the Company's financial situation High level risks Risks relating to goodwill The Group carries goodwill on its balance sheet. As at 30 June 2019, the Group's consolidated balance sheet included EUR 161,860,000 of goodwill mainly relating to acquisitions made by the Group. Potential future acquisitions in line with the Group's growth strategy may increase the goodwill further. It is possible that changes in such circumstances, or in the numerous variables associated with the judgments, assumptions and estimates made by the Group in assessing the appropriate valuation of its goodwill, could in the future require the Group to write down a portion of its goodwill and record related non-cash impairment charges. If the Group were to be required to write down a portion of its goodwill and record related non-cash impairment charges, the Group's financial position and earnings would be adversely affected. Medium level risks Ability to service debt The Group's ability to service its debt, will depend upon, among other things, the Group's future financial and operating performance, which will be affected by prevailing economic conditions and financial, business, regulatory and other factors, some of which are beyond the Group's control. If the Group's operating income is not sufficient to service its current or future indebtedness, the Group will be forced to take actions such as reducing or delaying its business activities, acquisitions, investments or capital expenditures, selling assets, restructuring or refinancing its debt or seeking additional equity capital. The Group may not be able to affect any of these remedies on satisfactory terms, or at all. This would have an adverse effect on the Group's business, earnings or financial position. The aforementioned applies to both long-term and current liabilities and therefore, both the solidity as the liquidity may be affected in this respect. The Company's dependency on other companies within the Group The Company is a holding company and holds no significant assets other than investments in its subsidiaries. Thus, the Company is dependent upon receipt of sufficient income and cash flow related to the operations and ownership of its subsidiaries. Furthermore, the Company's subsidiaries are legally separate and distinct from the Company and have no obligation to pay amounts due with respect to the Company's obligations and commitments, including the Notes, or to make funds available for such payments. The ability of the Company's subsidiaries to make such payments to the Company is subject to, among other things, the availability of funds and their legal ability to make dividends, which may from time to time be limited by corporate restrictions and local law. Accordingly, there is a risk that the Company is not able to receive funds by way of dividends or other value transfer from one or more of its subsidiaries. A decrease in any such income and cash flow from the Company's subsidiaries may have an adverse effect on the Company's financial position. Risks relating to borrowings by the Group and interest rates The Group has incurred, and may in compliance with the limits according to the Terms and Conditions further incur, financial indebtedness to finance its business operations. Such financing may generate interest costs which may be higher than the gains produced by the investments made by the Group. Borrowing money to make investments and acquisitions will increase the Group's exposure to the loss of capital and higher interest expenses. The Group's borrowings are primarily raised as fixed interest rate notes. However, some of the Group's other borrowings, e.g. a revolving credit facility, carry floating interest rates. Interest rate risk is defined as the risk that changes in interest rates affect the Group's financing costs. The interest rate risk is attributable to the development of current interest rates. Interests on the Group's borrowings from time to time may be subject to fluctuations in the applicable interest rates. The interest rates are affected by a number of factors that are beyond the control of the Group, including, but not limited to, the interest rate policies of governments and central banks. The Group has not entered into any interest rate hedging agreements. The variable rate interest-bearing net liability position for the Group, including cash and bank balances, was approximately EUR 181,600,000 as at 31 December 2018. An increase in interest rates would entail an increase in the Group's interest obligations and affect its profitability. The Group estimates that an increase of 1 per cent of the market interest as at 31 December 2018, would have adversely affected the Group's annual net interest expenses with approximately EUR 2,100,000, assuming that the Group's duration and funding structure remain constant during the year. Failure by the Group to comply with the terms (including financial covenants) of its financing arrangements may result in default under a credit agreement, which may have an adverse effect on the Group's business, earnings or financial position. SUPPORTING MATERIALS | POLYGON 51#53Risk factors (cont'd) Risks relating to liquidity Liquidity risk refers to the risk that the Group does not have cash or credit facilities to cover its payment commitments and obligations, including interest payments, without the cost of obtaining cash increasing significantly. The Group's available liquidity as at 31 December 2018 amounted to EUR 69,100,000 in the form of cash and cash equivalents and unused credit facilities. The banks and other credit institutions could terminate existing loans and credits as well as revoke given promises of credits, in the event that the Group finds itself in a weak financial position. There is a risk that the Group's liquidity sources prove to be insufficient, which could have an adverse effect on the financial position of the Group. Low level risks Credit and counterparty risks Where there is a risk that the Group's counterparties will be unable to fulfil their financial obligations towards the Group, the Group is exposed to a credit risk. The accounts receivable for the Group amounted to EUR 95,323,000 as at 30 June 2019. The Group's current and potential customers and other counterparties may as a consequence of financial and operational challenges end up in a financial situation where they cannot pay the agreed fees or other amounts owed to the Group as they fall due, or at all, or otherwise abstain from fulfilling their obligations, which in turn could lead to credit losses and require the Group to raise additional capital or obtain alternative financing to meet its obligations under any financing arrangements. An increase in credit losses or if the Group's counterparties are not able to fulfil these obligations towards the Group, it could adversely affect the Group's earnings or financial position. Currency risk The Group is exposed to foreign exchange rate risks, both translation risks and transaction risks arising from fluctuations in currency exchange rates. Since the Group operates in various countries, a portion of its expenses and sales are in currencies other than EUR, principally Swedish krona, Norwegian krona, Danish krona, Pound sterling, Canadian dollar, Singapore dollar and US dollar. Typically, the Group's costs and the corresponding sales are denominated in the same currency for each subsidiary. However, the Group presents its consolidated financial statements in EUR. As a result, the Group must translate the assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses of all of its operations with functional currencies other than EUR into EUR at then-applicable exchange rates. Consequently, increases or decreases in the value of the currency EUR may affect the value of these items with respect to the Group's non-EUR businesses in its consolidated financial statements, even if their values have not changed in their original currency. These translations could significantly affect the comparability of the Group's results between financial periods or result in significant changes to the carrying value of the Group's assets, liabilities or equity. The below table shows the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates on the net assets of Group subsidiaries in selected currencies. Changes in exchange rates Effect on the net assets of the Company's subsidiaries in EUR, 2018. USD +10/-10% 480,000 NOK 10/ 10 % 361,000 GBP +10/-10 % 614,000 SEK+10/-10% 665,000 SUPPORTING MATERIALS | POLYGON 52#54Risk factors (cont'd) Risks related to the nature of the notes Medium level risks Risks related to early redemption and partial repayment of the Notes Under the Terms and Conditions the Company has reserved the possibility to redeem all (or in connection with an Equity Listing Event or a Change of Control Event, part of the) outstanding Notes before the final redemption date. If the Notes are redeemed before the final redemption date, the Noteholders have the right to receive an early redemption amount which exceeds the nominal amount in accordance with the Terms and Conditions. However, there is a risk that the market value of the Notes is higher than the early redemption amount and that it may not be possible for Noteholders to reinvest such proceeds at an effective interest rate as high as the interest rate on the Notes and may only be able to do so at a significantly lower rate. In addition, a partial repayment of the Notes may affect the liquidity of the Notes and may have an adverse effect on the market value of the Notes which could result in difficulties for Noteholders to sell the Notes (at all or at reasonable terms). Credit risks Investors in the Notes carry a credit risk relating to the Group. Investors' ability to receive payment under the Notes is dependent on the Company's ability to meet its payment obligations, which in turn is largely dependent upon the performance of the Group's operations and its financial position. The Group's financial position is affected by several factors of which some have been mentioned above. There is a risk that an increased credit risk will cause the market to charge the Notes a higher risk premium, which will affect the Notes' value negatively. Another aspect of the credit risk is that if the financial position of the Group deteriorates, it will reduce the Group's possibility to receive debt financing at the time of the maturity of the Notes. Ability to comply with the Terms and Conditions The Group is required to comply with the Terms and Conditions, inter alia, to pay interest under the Notes. Events beyond the Group's control, including changes in the economic and business conditions in which the Group operates, may affect the Group's ability to comply with, among other things, the undertakings set out in the Terms and Conditions. A breach of the Terms and Conditions could result in a default under the Terms and Conditions, which could lead to an acceleration of the Notes, resulting in the Company having to repay the Noteholders at the applicable call premium. It is possible that the Company will not have sufficient funds at the time of the repayment to make the required redemption of the Notes. Interest rate risks The Notes' value depends on several factors, one of the most significant over time being the level of market interest. Investments in the Notes involve a risk that the market value of the Notes will be adversely affected by changes in market interest rates. Low level risks Majority owner The Sponsor indirectly controls 100 per cent of the shares in the Company. Following any potential change of control in the Company, the Company may be controlled by a majority shareholder whose interest will conflict with those of the Noteholders, particularly if the Group encounters difficulties or is unable to pay its debts as they fall due. A majority shareholder has legal power to control a large amount of the matters to be decided by vote at a shareholders' meeting. For example, a majority shareholder will have the ability to elect the board of directors. Furthermore, a majority shareholder may also have an interest in pursuing acquisitions, divestitures, financings or other transactions that, in their judgment, could enhance their equity investments, although such transactions would involve risks to the Noteholders. There is nothing that prevents a shareholder or any of its affiliates from acquiring businesses that directly compete with the Group. If such an event were to arise, it could have a material adverse effect on the Group's operations, earnings and financial position. According to the Terms and Conditions, if a change of control event occurs, the Noteholders have a right to request a prepayment of the Notes (put options). Please see below section "Put option" regarding potential consequences of a change of control event occurring and the risk that the Company does not have enough liquidity to repurchase the Notes if the Noteholders exercise that right. SUPPORTING MATERIALS | POLYGON 53#55Risk factors (cont'd) Put options According to the Terms and Conditions, the Notes are subject to prepayment at the option of each Noteholder (put options) if: I. II. prior to initial public offering of the shares in either the Company or the Unrestricted Guarantor, after which such shares shall be quoted, listed, traded or otherwise admitted to trading on a Regulated Market (an "Equity Listing Event"), any event where the Sponsor directly or indirectly ceases to own more than 50 per cent of the shares and votes of the Company; and upon, and at any time following an Equity Listing Event, any event where one or more persons, not being the Sponsor, acting in concert, acquire control over the Company and where "control" means (a) acquiring or controlling, directly or indirectly, more than fifty (50) per cent. of the voting shares of the Company, or (b) the right to, directly or indirectly, appoint or remove the whole or a majority of the directors of the board of directors of the Company, and "acting in concert" means a group of persons who, pursuant to an agreement or understanding (whether formal or informal), actively co-operate, through the acquisition directly or indirectly of shares in the Company by any of them, either directly or indirectly, to obtain or consolidate control of the Company. There is a risk that the Company will not have sufficient funds at the time of such prepayment to make the required prepayment of the Notes which could adversely affect the Company, e.g. by causing insolvency or an event of default under the Terms and Conditions, and thus adversely affect all Noteholders and not only those that choose to exercise the option. Risks relating to the clearing and settlement in Euroclear Sweden AB's book-entry system The Notes will be affiliated to Euroclear Sweden AB's account-based system, and no physical notes will be issued. Clearing and settlement relating to the Notes is carried out within Euroclear Sweden AB's book-entry system as well as payment of interest and repayment of the principal. Investors are therefore dependent on the functionality of Euroclear Sweden AB's account-based system and any problems thereof could have an adverse effect on the payment of interest and repayment of principal under the Notes. Risks related to security Medium level risks Risks relating to the transaction security and the guarantees Although the Company's obligations under the Notes and certain other obligations of the Group towards the Noteholders and certain other creditors (jointly the "Secured Parties") are secured by pledges over the shares in the Company and certain Group Companies as well as security over intercompany loans between Group Companies and, to a certain extent, guaranteed, it is not certain that the proceeds of any enforcement sale of the security assets and claims under the guarantees would be sufficient to satisfy all amounts then owed to the Secured Parties. Furthermore, if the Company issues additional Notes, there is a risk that the security position of the current Noteholders will be impaired. The Noteholders and the other Secured Parties will be represented by a security agent (the "Security Agent", currently being Intertrust (Sweden) AB) in all matters relating to the transaction security. There is a risk that the Security Agent, or anyone appointed by it, does not properly fulfil its obligations in terms of perfecting, maintaining, enforcing or taking other necessary actions in relation to the transaction security. Further, the transaction security is subject to certain hardening periods during which times the Secured Parties do not fully, or at all, benefit from the transaction security. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement (as defined below), the Security Agent is entitled to enter into agreements with the Group or third parties or to take any other actions necessary for the purpose of maintaining, releasing or enforcing the transaction security and the guarantees or for the purpose of settling, among others, the Noteholders' rights to the security and the guarantee. The Group is permitted to make certain non-distressed disposals in case of which the Security Agent shall release security in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement which may impair the Secured Parties security interest. If the Company would be unable to make repayment under the Notes and a court were to render a judgment that the security granted in respect of the Notes were unenforceable, there is a risk that the Noteholders would find it difficult or impossible to recover the amounts owed to them under the Notes. Therefore, there is a risk that the security granted and the guarantees issued in respect of the Notes are ineffective with regard to any of the Company's obligations under the Notes in the event the Company becomes insolvent. Risks relating to enforcement of the transaction security In accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement, the Noteholders will receive proceeds from an enforcement of the transaction security only after the obligations of other Secured Parties secured on a super senior basis have been repaid in full. SUPPORTING MATERIALS | POLYGON 54#56Risk factors (cont'd) If a subsidiary, which shares have been pledged in favour of the Secured Parties is subject to any foreclosure, dissolution, winding-up, liquidation, recapitalisation, administrative or other bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings, the shares that are subject to such share pledge may then have limited value because all of the subsidiary's obligations must first be satisfied, potentially leaving little or no remaining assets in the subsidiary for the Secured Parties. As a result, the Secured Parties may not recover full value (or any value in the case of an enforcement sale) of the shares. In addition, the value of the shares subject to pledges may decline over time. Furthermore, the value of the intercompany loans, which are subject to security in favour of the Secured Parties, is largely dependent on the relevant debtor's ability to repay such intercompany loans. Should the relevant debtor be unable to repay its debt obligations upon an enforcement of a pledge over the intercompany loan, the Noteholders may not recover the full or any value of the security granted over the intercompany loan. If the proceeds of an enforcement are not sufficient to repay all amounts due under or in respect of the Notes, then the Noteholders will only have an unsecured claim against the Company and its remaining assets (if any) for the amounts which remain outstanding under or in respect of the Notes. Corporate benefit limitations in providing security and guarantees for third parties Some of the security granted pursuant to the Terms and Conditions is granted by subsidiaries of the Company. If a limited liability company guarantees or provides security for another party's obligations without deriving sufficient corporate benefit therefrom, the granting of the guarantee or security will require the consent of all shareholders of the grantor and will only be valid up to the amount the company could have distributed as dividend to its shareholders at the time the guarantee or the security was provided. If no corporate benefit is derived from the provided guarantee or security, such guarantee or security will be limited in validity. Consequently, the security granted by a subsidiary of the Company could therefore be limited, which would have an adverse effect on the Secured Parties' security position. Risks related to the intercreditor arrangements The Company have incurred additional debt under a super senior revolving credit facility (the "Super Senior RCF") which, in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement (as defined below), ranks senior to the Notes. Further, the Company may incur certain additional financial indebtedness which will benefit from the same security and hence rank pari passu with the Notes. The relation between the Secured Parties is governed by an intercreditor agreement (the "Intercreditor Agreement") between, among others, the Company, the Security Agent and the Secured Parties. The Security Agent shall take enforcement instructions primarily from the agent (representing the Noteholders) (the "Agent"). However, if the Agent wish to take enforcement actions, consultation with the other Secured Parties must (if not agreeing upon the proposed enforcement actions) first take place for a period of 30 days after which the Agent (representing the Noteholders) may instruct the Security Agent to take such actions. The other Secured Parties may thus delay enforcement which in the Noteholders' view is necessary. Furthermore, it is possible that the Security Agent will act in a manner that is not preferable to the Noteholders. In some situations (for example where another Secured Party has requested enforcement actions to be taken but the Noteholders have not provided any enforcement instruction to the Security Agent within three months after the end of the 30 day consultation period, or where the Noteholders' requested enforcement actions have not resulted in any enforcement proceeds becoming available for the Security Agent), the other Secured Parties may give enforcement instructions to the Security Agent. If the outstanding obligations of the Group towards other Secured Creditors than the Noteholders increase, there is a risk that the security position of the Noteholders is impaired. Furthermore, there is a risk that the security will not at all times cover the outstanding claims of the Secured Creditors. The Intercreditor Agreement also contains provisions regarding the application of proceeds from an enforcement of security where any agent will receive payments first, secondly any creditor under any super senior debt (including liabilities under super senior hedges), thirdly any creditor pro rata under any senior debt (including the Noteholders) and lastly any creditor under any shareholder, intercompany and subordinated debt. There is a risk that the enforcement proceeds will not be sufficient in order for the Company to satisfy the waterfall provisions above. Subject to the prior consent of the agent representing the RCF Creditor, the pledged intragroup loans may be converted to equity and/or repaid and therefore released from the transaction security. Since the Noteholder will receive proceeds from any enforcement only after the obligations of the RCF Creditor and any hedging providers secured on a super senior basis have been repaid in full, there is a risk that the agent representing the RCF Creditor consents to such conversion or prepayment in a manner that may be detrimental to certain Noteholders and their interests, resulting in the Noteholders losing a direct claim against the relevant debtor under such intragroup loan. Security over assets granted to third parties The Group may, subject to certain limitations from time to time, incur additional financial indebtedness and provide additional security for such indebtedness. If security is granted in favour of a third party the Noteholders will, in the event of bankruptcy, reorganisation or winding-up of the Company, be subordinated in right of payment out of the assets being subject to security provided to such third party debt provider. In addition, if any such third party debt provider holding security provided by the Group were to enforce such security due to a default by any Group Company under the relevant finance documents, such enforcement could have a material adverse effect on the Group's assets, operations and, ultimately, the financial position of the Noteholders. SUPPORTING MATERIALS | POLYGON 55#57Risk factors (cont'd) Risks related to the noteholders rights and representation Low level risks The rights of Noteholders depend on the Agent's actions and financial standing By subscribing for, or accepting the assignment of, any Note, each Noteholder will accept the appointment of the Agent to act on its behalf and to perform administrative functions relating to the Notes. The Agent shall have, among other things, the right to represent the Noteholders in all court and administrative proceedings in respect of the Notes. However, the rights, duties and obligations of the Agent as the representative of the Noteholders will be subject to the provisions of the Terms and Conditions, and there is no specific legislation or market practice in Sweden (under which laws the Terms and Conditions are governed) which would govern the Agent's performance of its duties and obligations relating to the Notes. There is a risk that a failure by the Agent to perform its duties and obligations properly or at all will adversely affect the enforcement of the rights of the Noteholders. The Agent may be replaced by a successor Agent in accordance with the Terms and Conditions. Generally, the successor Agent has the same rights and obligations as the retired Agent. It may be difficult to find a successor Agent with commercially acceptable terms or at all. Further, there is a risk that that the successor Agent would breach its obligations under the above documents or that insolvency proceedings would be initiated against it. There is a risk that materialisation of any of the above risks will have a material adverse effect on the enforcement of the rights of the Noteholders and the rights of the Noteholders to receive payments under the Notes. Noteholders' meetings The Terms and Conditions include certain provisions regarding Noteholders' meeting, or written procedures. Such meetings, or written procedures, may be held in order to resolve on matters relating to the Noteholders' interests. The Terms and Conditions will allow for stated majorities to bind all Noteholders, including Noteholders who have not taken part in the meeting, or written procedure, and those who have voted differently to the required majority at a duly convened and conducted Noteholders' meeting, or written procedure. Consequently, there is a risk that the actions of the majority in such matters will affect a Noteholder's rights in a manner that is undesirable for some of the Noteholders. No action against the Company and Noteholders' representation In accordance with the Terms and Conditions, the Agent will represent all Noteholders in all matters relating to the Notes and the Noteholders are prevented from taking actions on their own against the Company or any other Group Company. Consequently, individual Noteholders do not have the right to take legal actions to declare any default by claiming any payment from or enforcing any security granted by the Company or any other Group Company and may therefore lack effective remedies unless and until a requisite majority of the Noteholders agree to take such action. However, there is a risk that an individual Noteholder, in certain situations, would attempt to bring its own action against the Company or any other Group Company (in breach of the Terms and Conditions), which could negatively affect an acceleration of the Notes or other action against the Company or any other Group Company. To enable the Agent to represent Noteholders in court, the Noteholders and/or their nominees may have to submit a written power of attorney for legal proceedings. The failure of all Noteholders to submit such a power of attorney could negatively affect the legal proceedings. Under the Terms and Conditions, the Agent will in some cases have the right to make decisions and take measures that bind all Noteholders. Consequently, there is a risk that the actions of the Agent in such matters will affect a Noteholder's rights under the Terms and Conditions in a manner that is undesirable for some of the Noteholders. Risks relating to the financial standing of the Group High level risks Refinancing risk The Group may be required to refinance certain or all of its outstanding debt, including but not limited to the Notes and the Super Senior Revolving Credit Facility. The Group's ability to successfully refinance its debt depends, among other things, on the conditions of the debt markets and the Group's own financial condition at such time. Even if the debt markets improve, there is a risk that the Group's access to financing sources will not be available on favourable terms, or at all. If the Group is unable to refinance its debt obligations on favourable terms, or at all, it would have a material adverse effect on the Group's business, financial condition and results of operations and on the Noteholders' recovery under the Notes. SUPPORTING MATERIALS | POLYGON 56#58Risk factors (cont'd) Medium level risks Structural subordination and insolvency of subsidiaries All assets, with the exception of certain intellectual property rights, are owned by and all revenues are generated in subsidiaries of the Company. The subsidiaries are legally separated from the Company and have no obligation to make payments to the Company of any surpluses generated from their business. The subsidiaries' ability to make payments to the Company is restricted by, among other things, the availability of funds, corporate restrictions and local law restrictions (for example limitations on value transfers). There is a risk that the Company is not able to receive funds by way of dividends or value transfer from one or more subsidiary, this will affect the Company's ability to service its payment obligations under the Notes which would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial position, earnings and result. The Noteholders (and the other Secured Parties) benefit from guarantees provided by certain of the Company's subsidiaries. In the event of insolvency, liquidation or a similar event relating to one of the Guarantors, all other creditors of such subsidiary would be entitled to payment out of the assets of such subsidiary with the same priority as the Secured Parties to the extent that the guarantees are valid (see further under "Security over assets granted to third parties"). In case of an insolvency event in a subsidiary not being a Guarantor, an entity within the Group, as a shareholder, or the Secured Parties as secured parties in relation to a pledge over the shares in such subsidiary, would be entitled to any payments only after the other creditors have received full payment for their claims. Thus, the Notes are in the latter case structurally subordinated to the liabilities of such subsidiaries to the extent there is no provision for a prioritised position. The Group and its assets may not be protected from any actions by the creditors of any subsidiary of the Group, whether under bankruptcy law, by contract or otherwise. In addition, defaults by, or the insolvency of, certain subsidiaries of the Group could result in the obligation of the Group to make payments under parent company financial or performance guarantees in respect of such subsidiaries' obligations or the occurrence of cross defaults on certain borrowings of the Group. Ability to service debt The Company's ability to service its debt under the Notes will depend upon, among other things, the Group's future financial and operating performance, which will be affected by prevailing economic conditions and financial, business, regulatory and other factors, some of which are beyond the Group's control. If the Group's operating income is not sufficient to service its current or future indebtedness, the Group will be forced to take actions such as reducing or delaying its business activities, acquisitions, investments or capital expenditures, selling assets, restructuring or refinancing its debt or seeking additional equity capital. There is a risk that the Group will not be able to affect any of these remedies on satisfactory terms, or at all. This would have a negative effect on the Group's operations, earnings, results and financial position. Exits and Change of Control Private equity funds make investments with the objective of exiting the investment within a certain time frame. As part of their investment strategy, private equity funds take an active role in managing their portfolio companies. Pursuant to the Terms and Conditions, the Sponsor may make an exit by way of a private sale or an initial public offering of the shares in the Company without the Noteholders being entitled to have their Notes repurchased, provided that (i) before an Equity Listing Event, the Sponsor holds more than fifty (50) per cent. of the voting shares of the Company or (ii) after an Equity Listing Event, the Sponsor holds more than fifty (50) per cent. of the voting shares of the Company. There is a risk that such exit may adversely affect the market price of the Notes SUPPORTING MATERIALS | POLYGON 57#59Definitions Sales Pro forma sales EBITDA Adjusted EBITDA Adjusted EBITDA margin Pro forma adjusted EBITDA Net Working Capital (NWC) Change in NWC Capital expenditures (Capex) Maintenance capex Growth capex Operating Free Cash Flow before growth capex Operating Free Cash Flow Operating Free Cash Flow margin Discontinued operations Acquired sales Organic growth Adjusted organic growth Total Senior Debt Total Net Senior Debt Items affecting comparability (IAC) LTM Sales net of VAT and discounts Sales net of VAT and discounts pro forma adjusted for acquisitions Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation before IAC Adjusted EBITDA as percentage of sales Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation before IAC pro forma adjusted for acquisitions Net of working capital items Change in net of working capital items between periods in time Resources used to maintain and acquire intangible assets and property, plant and equipment that are capitalised Resources used to maintain assets that are capitalised Resources used to acquire assets that are capitalized Adjusted EBITDA plus/minus Change in NWC minus Maintenance capex Adjusted EBITDA plus/minus Change in NWC minus Capex Operating Free Cash Flow as percentage of Adjusted EBITDA Discontinued PDR operations in the US Sales contributed by acquired companies based on annual sales of the acquired company at acquisition Business expansion generated within the existing company excluding the impact of foreign exchange Business expansion generated within the existing company excluding the impact of foreign exchange and adjusted to comparable business Interest-bearing debt (excluding pension and leasing debts) Net interest-bearing debt (excluding pension and leasing debts) minus cash and cash equivalents Items attributable to capital gains/losses, impairment, restructuring, redundancy costs and other material nonrecurring items Last twelve months Source: Company information SUPPORTING MATERIALS | POLYGON 58
