As previously announced, the Extraordinary General Meeting of Martela Corporation (hereinafter “ Martela ” or the “ Company ”) resolved on the combination of the Company’s share series (including the related amendment to the Articles of Association and the directed share issue without consideration), and the Company’s Board of Directors, based on the authorisation granted by the General Meeting, resolved on a directed share issue against consideration (the “ Share Issue ”). The Company published the resolutions of the Extraordinary General Meeting on 29 September 2026 and the final result of the Share Issue on 6 October 2026. The amendment to the Articles of Association relating to the combination of the share series has today been registered with the Trade Register maintained by the Finnish Patent and Registration Office, meaning that the combination of the share series has entered into force. Following the combination of the share series, all of the shares in the Company are of the same series and carry equal rights in the Company, including one (1) vote at a General Meeting. In connection with the combination of the share series, the Company’s former 604,800 series K shares, which were not subject to trading on a regulated market, were converted into shares of the Company’s sole share series on a 1:1 basis (the “ Converted Shares ”). Simultaneously, 151,195 new shares issued in the directed share issue without consideration to the holders of series K shares in connection with the combination of the share series (the “ Compensation Shares ”) and 15,907,707 new shares issued in the Share Issue (the “ Offer Shares ”, and together with the Compensation Shares and the Converted Shares, the “ New Shares ”) were registered with the Trade Register. Following the registration of the changes, the total number of shares in the Company and the votes carried by them is 20,698,114. Trading in the New Shares is expected to commence on the regulated market of Nasdaq Helsinki Ltd on or about 13 October 2026, provided that Nasdaq Helsinki Ltd accepts the Company’s listing application. The New Shares have the same ISIN code FI0009900385 and trading code MARAS as the Company’s shares already subject to trading on the regulated market.
