Ballard receives order from Siemens Mobility to power 7 trains and signs LOI for up to an additional 200 modules over the next six years

VANCOUVER, BC and MUNICH, Sept. 22, 2022  – Ballard Power Systems (NASDAQ: BLDP) (TSX: BLDP) today announced an order for 14 x 200 kW fuel cell modules from Siemens Mobility GmbH (“Siemens Mobility”; www.mobility.siemens.com), a leading supplier in the development of alternative drives, to power a fleet of seven Mireo Plus H passenger trains. Delivery of the 14 fuel cell modules is expected to start in 2023 with the fleet planned to be in service in Berlin-Brandenburg region in late 2024.

In addition to the initial order of 14 fuel cell modules, Siemens Mobility also signed a letter of intent with Ballard for the supply of 200 fuel cell modules totaling 40 MW over the next six years, including a firm commitment on 100 of the fuel cell modules totaling 20MW. The modules will be used for Siemen’s Mireo Plus H trains.

“This is a significant milestone for our multi-year collaboration efforts with Siemens Mobility and the future of zero-emission commuter rail in Europe. Our fuel cell technology is an ideal solution to support the heavy payload, long range and rapid refueling requirements of Siemen Mobility’s passenger train fleet. We look forward to our continued collaboration and are excited for the opportunity to support the Berlin and Brandenburg region’s first hydrogen powered rail network,” said David Mucciacciaro, Ballard Chief Commercial Officer. “We will continue our work to secure platform wins with key partners in our core verticals and to support their scaling plans to achieve decarbonization.”

“We can only meet climate change targets by increasing rail transportation. Our first order for a fleet of hydrogen-powered trains will enable emission-free rail transport on non-electrified routes in Germany,” said Jochen Steinbauer, Platform Director H2 Technologies at Siemens Mobility. “Our Mireo Plus H is a next-generation hydrogen train, featuring longer range, faster acceleration and state-of-the-art technologies, setting new standards in zero-emission passenger transport.”

ARCANE ENTER INTO AN AGREEMENT FOR THE SALE OF 100% OF THE SHARES IN TRIJO

ARCANE ENTER INTO AN AGREEMENT FOR THE SALE OF 100% OF THE SHARES IN TRIJO

Stockholm, 31 August 2022

Arcane Crypto AS, a fully owned subsidiary of Arcane Crypto AB, has entered into an agreement to sell its Swedish crypto exchange, Ijort Invest AB (“Trijo”), to GreenMerc AB (publ).

The transaction is expected to close during the third quarter of 2022 and will not have a material impact on Arcane’s result.

Torbjørn Bull Jenssen, CEO of Arcane Crytpo, said, “With our strategic focus on a pan-European offering, targeting High Net Worth Individuals, Wealth Managers, and the Private Wealth segment, Trijo as a local retail play has become less relevant to Arcane. Selling to Green Merc, secures the continued operation of Trijo, to the benefit of Trijo’s loyal customers, and further focus for Arcane to double down on our core strategy.

Arvid Börje Ramberg, CEO of GreenMerc, says,  “We are happy to acquire and continue to operate Trijo. GreenMerc’s self-developed liquidity engine and marketplace provides the basis for developing GreenMerc’s services to deliver maximum customer value. There are strong synergies between Trijo and GreenMerc with no overlapping functions – a perfect match.”

ARCANE CRYPTO RESOLVES ON A DIRECTED SET-OFF ISSUE OF SHARES TO BULLTECH AS AS AN ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATION FOR THE ACQUISITION OF KAUPANG KRYPTO AS

ARCANE CRYPTO RESOLVES ON A DIRECTED SET-OFF ISSUE OF SHARES TO BULLTECH AS AS AN ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATION FOR THE ACQUISITION OF KAUPANG KRYPTO AS

02 September 2022

The Board of Directors of Arcane Crypto AB (“Arcane Crypto” or the “Company”) has today, based on authorization from the general meeting of shareholders held on 10 May 2022, resolved to issue 58,452,374 new shares to Bulltech AS (the “Seller”), as an additional consideration (the “Additional Consideration”) in accordance with the share purchase agreement of Kaupang Krypto AS (“Kaupang”), which was announced on 13 October 2020. The Seller is entitled to the Additional Consideration due to Kaupang meeting agreed turnover targets.

On 13 October 2020, Arcane Crypto announced that the Company’s subsidiary Arcane Crypto AS had entered into a share purchase agreement regarding the acquisition of all shares in Kaupang from Bulltech AS in which the consideration consisted of (i) NOK 1,000,000 in cash and (ii) NOK 18,500,000 which were set-off against shares in Arcane Crypto. In addition, the Seller is also entitled to the Additional Consideration. As the terms and conditions regarding the Additional Consideration under the share purchase agreement have been met, the Board of Directors of Arcane Crypto has today resolved on and completed a directed set-off issue of shares in Arcane Crypto to the Seller in order to settle the Additional Consideration.

Based on authorization from the Annual General Meeting held on 10 May 2022, the Board of Directors of Arcane Crypto has resolved upon and completed a directed set-off issue of 58,452,374 shares, meaning that the Company’s share capital will increase by SEK 213,276.57120. The right to subscribe has, with deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights, been given to the Seller of Kaupang, i.e., Bulltech AS. The reason for the deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights is to fulfil the Company’s obligations towards the Seller under the share purchase agreement and thus set-off the Seller’s claim regarding the Additional Consideration for Kaupang.

Payment was made by way of set-off of the Seller’s claim under the share purchase agreement, which corresponds to a subscription price of SEK 0.184250001548269 per share. The number of issued shares corresponds to a dilution of approximately 0.67 percent of the total number of shares in Arcane Crypto. The subscription price was agreed in the share purchase agreement based on the volume-weighted average price of Arcane Crypto’s share on Nasdaq First North Growth Market the sixty (60) trading days immediately preceding 31 December 2021.

The Seller has accepted a lock-up for the Additional Consideration for a period of 24 months from the closing date of the acquisition of Kaupang. However, the Seller shall be entitled to sell shares up to an amount of SEK 3,000,000.
