The subscription price represents a 15% discount to the volume-weighted average price of the Company’s shares over the last 20 trading days preceding July 11, 2024.

FPCI Truffle Medeor, managed by Truffle Capital, and Ginko Invest, Company’s shareholders, participated in the capital increase by setting off their shareholder loans granted to the Company in April 2024[2].
