PLEASE SEE “IMPORTANT INFORMATION” AT THE END OF THE PRESS RELEASE

Magnasense AB (“Magnasense” or the “Company”) today announces that the Company has entered into a conditional settlement agreement with Atlas Special Opportunities, LLC. (“Atlas”), under which all prior agreements with Atlas are terminated and all of Atlas’ existing claims against the Company are settled (the “Settlement Agreement”). As previously announced, the Company entered into a SEK 45 million loan facility agreement (the “Loan Facility”), under which the Company could call loans in tranches, and agreements to amend the terms and conditions (the “Amendment Agreement”) of the outstanding convertible bonds of series 2023/2026 (the “Convertible Bonds”) with Atlas. The Loan Facility, the Amendment Agreement, the Convertible Bonds and any other outstanding claim that Atlas has, or may assert under previous agreements, against the Company will be set off against 17,722,664,794 ordinary shares in Magnasense at a subscription price of SEK 0.002426 per share (the “Settlement”). The Settlement shall be effected and completed in connection with the Extraordinary General Meeting (the “EGM”) resolving on and approving, inter alia, Subgen AI Limited’s planned reverse takeover of Magnasense as announced on 22 July 2025 (the “Subgen Transaction”). The notice of the EGM will be published through a separate press release. In connection with the Settlement Agreement, Magnasense and Subgen AI Limited have agreed not to pursue the requirement that a third-party investor assume responsibility for, and contractually agree to pay on behalf of the Company, the administrative fine issued by the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority on 25 June 2025.

About the Settlement
Magnasense has today, as part of advancing the Subgen Transaction, entered into a Settlement Agreement with Atlas to terminate all prior agreements with Atlas and to set off the outstanding debt under the Loan Facility, the Amendment Agreement, the Convertible Bonds and any other outstanding claim that Atlas has, or may assert under previous agreements, against Magnasense. After the Settlement, Atlas will have set off any and all claims or other rights whatsoever against the Company and its subsidiaries. Through the Settlement, Atlas will set off all existing claims against 17,722,664,794 ordinary shares in Magnasense at a subscription price of SEK 0.002426 per share. The subscription price is based on the Loan Facility. The Settlement shall be effected and completed in connection with the EGM resolving on and approving the changes to the capital structure of the Company, the Subgen Transaction and upon Atlas receiving the Settlement shares free from any encumbrances. If the Settlement is not satisfactorily effected, or if the Subgen Transaction is not completed by 31 December 2025, then the Settlement Agreement will be terminated and all existing agreements between Magnasense and Atlas shall be reinstated whereby Atlas shall be entitled to exercise all rights and remedies in accordance with such reinstated agreements.

Considerations of the Board of Directors
The Company’s Board of Directors has carefully investigated the conditions for a rights issue to achieve the anticipated outcome and impact on the Company’s capital structure pursuant to the Settlement. The Board of Directors’ assessment was that the Company, especially taking into account the Company’s existing capital structure, could not fulfil its capital requirements in any other way than through the Settlement Agreement with Atlas together with the planned Subgen Transaction. The Board of Directors has assessed that a rights issue would require significant underwriting commitments from an underwriting consortium, which has not been deemed possible for the Company to obtain. In addition, the Subgen Transaction is conditional upon the Settlement. The Board of Directors’ overall assessment is thus that the reasons for entering into the Settlement Agreement and subsequently carrying out the Settlement with Atlas outweigh the reasons that justify the main rule of issuing shares with preferential rights for existing shareholders, and that a new share issue with deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights in accordance with the Settlement Agreement is in the interest of the Company and all shareholders, ultimately progressing the planned Subgen Transaction. The reason why the issue is directed to an existing shareholder is to settle the debt that Magnasense has towards Atlas which has become a shareholder through previously completed share issues resolved to fulfil the Company’s obligations to Atlas under the Loan Facility, the Convertible Bonds and the Amendment Agreement.

The basis for the calculation of the subscription price has, in consultation with a financial advisor and by analysing the Company's existing indebtedness and several market factors, been determined through arm’s length negotiations with Atlas upon entering the Loan Facility. It is the Board of Directors’ assessment that the subscription price hence reflects the current market conditions as well as demand and that it thereby is market-based.

Application for continued listing on Nasdaq First North Growth Market
The Subgen Transaction, of which the Settlement Agreement is a part, will entail a significant change in Magnasense's operations, “change of identity”, and, due to this, a new listing process is required for Magnasense on Nasdaq First North Growth Market. Magnasense has initiated a process to obtain such approval. Due to the listing process and provided that Nasdaq Stockholm approves the listing, a company description will be published.

Extraordinary General Meeting
The Settlement with Atlas in accordance with the Settlement Agreement is subject to approval by an Extraordinary General Meeting in Magnasense. The EGM, expected to be held in early November 2025, intends to resolve on, inter alia, changes to the Articles of Association and share classes in the Company, the Subgen Transaction and the issue of shares as part of the Settlement. In accordance with the Board of Directors’ planned proposals, the Company will have 498,987,606,931 class A shares and 519,449,763,052 ordinary shares after the Subgen Transaction and the Settlement, of which Atlas will hold 17,722,664,794 ordinary shares, equal to approximately 1.7 percent of the outstanding share capital of the Company.

As the Settlement is planned to occur in connection with the Subgen Transaction, Atlas will not reach the mandatory bid threshold and as such no mandatory bid exemption will be required by Atlas.

As part of the Settlement Agreement, Atlas has undertaken to vote in favour of any resolutions required to effect the Settlement and to take all actions and execute all documents necessary for its completion.

The notice of the EGM will be published through a separate press release.

Update on condition precedent for the Subgen Transaction
With reference to the conditions precedent for the Subgen Transaction as announced on 22 July 2025, Magnasense and Subgen AI Limited have agreed not to pursue the requirement that a third-party investor assume responsibility for, and contractually agree to pay on behalf of the Company, the administrative fine issued by the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority on 25 June 2025. Although proposals to this effect have been considered, the parties have jointly assessed that the anticipated financial capacity of the relisted entity following the planned Subgen Transaction to meet such obligation, should it arise, together with the possibility of a positive outcome following the appeal filed with the Administrative Court in Stockholm on 14 July 2025, outweighs the benefits of securing a third-party arrangement at this stage.
