Trading in Biosensor resumes

February 23, 2011

At the prospect of refinancing during the spring, Biosensor has been carrying on discussions with financial as well as industrial parties. The Company came to the conclusion that significant information about the Company could reach parties other than those with whom discussions were conducted. As a security measure, and to avoid abnormal stock price volatility, the Company, in consultation with AktieTorget, chose to suspend trading in the Biosensor share until further notice.

 
Facing the aforementioned refinancing, the Company can now announce that an agreement has been reached with financiers and principal owners for a bridge financing making MSEK 8 available to the Company to secure its financing until the above mentioned round of financing.

The Board of Directors has decided to reschedule the planned rights issue to take place during the second quarter.
