3. File transfer/Approval

5. Invoice payment

4. Discounted invoice payment

2. Invoices

1. Assignment of receivables

What it is? Buyer driven transaction where relative credit quality creates a win-win situation

File transfer

The Buyer prepares a file transfer, containing approved invoices and submits to SEB

SEB purchases receivables issued on the Buyer, thus credit risk on the Buyer

Supplier Invoice payment

Payment (discounting) is executed latest one business day after SEB receives approval. Payments are normally executed within 3-10 days from invoice date

Improved relationships as working capital is released for supplier

Buyer’s payment

The Buyer pays on invoice due date

All financing fees are covered by supplier

Leading to increased liquidity and debt capacity

1. Signing of SCF documentation 2. The Buyer regularly receives invoices from its suppliers 3. The Buyer regularly prepares a file transfer, containing approved invoices,

and submits to SEB (frequency to be determined) 4. SEB pays discounted purchase price to supplier immediately after receiving

approved invoices from the Buyer 5. The Buyer pays invoice to SEB on its due date

Benefits for Buyer and its suppliers

| 14

Improved liquidity and lower cost of capital for both parties

• Improved working capital

• Potential to reduce other interest bearing debt

• Improved key financial ratios

• Strengthened relationship to Buyer

• Improved cash flow and liquidity

• Potential for lower cost of debt since financing is based on Buyer’s risk

• Potential to reduce credit insurance costs

• An alternative means of funding, freeing up capacity within existing credit facilities

• SEB expects that SCF could be a vital part in financing working capital, investments and/or dividend capacity

Source: SEB Financial Strategy

• No cost for Buyer, all cost paid by supplier

• Improved working capital

• Potential to reduce other interest bearing debt (if any)

• Improved key financial ratios

• Strengthened relationship to key suppliers

• Increase investment and dividend capacity

• Opportunity for extension of payment terms through offering a financial solution to suppliers

• Potential to negotiate better commercial terms -> improvement of profitability

• Offering suppliers cash upfront mitigates the risk of suppliers defaulting due to lack of liquidity

Summary

Buyer will benefit from extended payment terms or better commercial terms without any financial expenses

Suppliers will receive early payments reducing their need for working capital loan facilities

The program is cost efficient as the supplier pricing is based on Buyer’s credit risk

Benefits for Buyer Benefits for suppliers

1. Almost NWC optimization for all companies by introducing either Supply Chain

Financing and/or Receivable Purchase

a) > NOK 400m NWC capital release by SCF in most companies

b) > NOK 500m NWC release in Receivable Purchase in most companies

2. Most important for success;

a) Aim for most possible NWC effect with minimum resources spend, select main and

preferred suppliers (or debtors), i.e. normally start from the top suppliers and down to

approx. EUR 2m spend

b) Select an experienced bank with best on-boarding capabilities and skills

c) Payment terms up to 120 days is not unusual to obtain

d) Consider “Gold”, “Silver” and “Bronze” margin steps to attract most possible suppliers

e) Sustainable Supply Chain Finance is also available with individual pricing depending

on an external sustainable score

3. SEB will be happy to advice you further and/or provide more exact calculations

manual – Legal domicile and where the

invoicing is performed – Law of the underlying sales contract

between Company and the supplier(s)

– First assessment of technical requirements

Ideal supplier in Supply Chain Financing Programme

| 47

SEB comments Supplier characteristics

Strong relationship

The supplier should be an important partner with a long term relationship ambition

It’s recommended offering SCF to key suppliers at first in order to test the program and fully reap the benefits with a larger supplier

Significant volumes Large and reoccurring volumes In order to optimize resources spent on suppliers with maximum economic benefit

Lower credit rating Lower credit rating than Company. Supplier should benefit from Company´s strong rating and lower funding costs

Most suppliers should be able to benefit from Company´s strong position in the credit markets

Financing integration Limited amount of credit notes A large amount of credit notes would increase Company´s resources and SEB's administration costs of a program

Geographic location The supplier invoices Company mainly within European countries with a legislation facilitating sale of receivables

Today, SEB has experience with suppliers located in the Nordics and the larger part of Europe. See appendices for more countries

Corporate structure The supplier should not have ring fenced corporate financial structure, i.e. free disposal of it’s assets

Private equity owned and suppliers in financial distress are likely to have constrains on their assets

Focus on working capital management

The supplier has a focus on working capital management/Liquidity optimisation

The supplier already has focus on working capital/liquidity optimization and is positive to enter into a dialogue

Legal implications and geographical reach

| 48

Fully implemented Pending final approval

Source: SEB Financial Strategy

• In addition, SEB supports suppliers in China, Singapore and Hong Kong

Legal implications

SCF is a solution with legal implications. SEB is purchasing receivables from a company in another country, issued on the Company. It’s important to check legal requirements in each country to safeguard both Company and SEB against three parties, e.g. by bankruptcy of the supplier, if the bankruptcy estate may claim payment (again) from Company

Therefore, it is important to Company and SEB, that we have legal investigations in place, and subsequently, that we have a business case supporting sufficient volumes when making legal cost investments

Most European countries can be included, e.g. Nordic, UK, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Benelux, Baltic, Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary and Spain

Please notice that SEB also have hubs in Asia (Shanghai, Hong Kong and Singapore) where we can handle SCF set-ups with other legal coverage

Not many countries are completely ”off-limit”, and we urge you to bring up your thoughts and questions to SEB for discussions about the prerequisites

Geographical reach in Europe
