Wetteri Plc Insider information 24 April 2024 at 21.15 EET

On 14 February 2024, Wetteri Plc announced that the covenants included in the
financing agreement between the Themis Holding Oy subgroup, which is part of the
Wetteri Group, and the financing bank had not been fully met.
Wetteri has today received a notice from the financing bank that the bank will
not exercise its right to demand immediate repayment of its receivables although
the covenants were not fully met on 31 December 2023. Wetteri has also agreed
with the financing bank to update the covenant terms of the financing agreement.

In the updated financing agreement, an amendment to covenant terms has been
agreed as follows: The 12-month EBITDA divided by interest-bearing net
liabilities of the Themis Holding Oy subgroup must be no more than 4.60x on 30
June 2024 and no more than 4.20x on 31 December 2024, the equity ratio must be
at least 25% on 30 June 2024 and at least 26% on 31 December 2024, and the
equity ratio of the Wetteri Plc Group must be at least 19% on 30 June 2024 and
at least 19.5% on 31 December 2024. In addition, Elo Mutual Pension Insurance
Company will replace the previous pension insurance company as a financier in
the financing agreement.

As the notice was received and the amendment to the terms of the financing
agreement was made after the financial year that ended on 31 December 2023, the
long-term portion (EUR 14.7 million) of funding under the financing agreement
will be accounted for as a current liability in accordance with IAS 1.74 in the
financial statements for the financial year that ended on 31 December 2023. In
the 2022 financial statements, the long-term portion (EUR 9.8 million) of the
funding under the financing agreement was also treated as a current liability.
