The Target Market Assessment is without prejudice to the requirements of any contractual, legal or regulatory selling restrictions in relation to the directed share issue. Thereto, notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, it shall be noted that Pareto Securities AB will only provide investors who meet the criteria for professional clients and eligible counterparties.
