Update on the acquisition of a majority
stake in Vinpai by Camlin Fine Science
Limited
Saint-Dolay – France, June 24, 2025 – 10:00 pm CEST – Vinpai (ISIN:
FR001400AXT1; ticker: ALVIN), a specialist in the design, manufacture and marketing of
algae- and plant-based functional ingredients for the food and cosmetics industries
(“Vinpai” or the “Company”), today announces a delay to the previously communicated1
timetable for the acquisition of a majority stake in Vinpai by Camlin Fine Science
Limited (“CFSL”) (the “Block Acquisition”).

The Block Acquisition is subject, among other conditions, to the issuance of newly
ordinary shares of CFSL as consideration for the Block Acquisition (“CFSL
Consideration Shares”), which shall be decided by the CFSL’s shareholders’ meeting
(“CFSL Shareholders’ Meeting”). The convening of the CFSL Shareholders’ Meeting is
itself conditional upon satisfaction of two technical requirements: each seller shall
(i) obtain an Indian tax identification number (Permanent Account Number or PAN)
and (ii) open a dematerialized securities account (DEMAT Account) with a bank in India.
The CFSL Shareholders’ Meeting was expected to be held on the latest by the end of
April 2025.

These formalities have taken longer than expected due to administrative constraints
and should be completed at the latest by the end of July.

As soon as these formalities are completed, CFSL board of directors will convene the
CFSL Shareholders’ Meeting, which will be held within 30 days following its convening,
i.e. based on the contemplated timeline at the latest by the end of August.

Completion of the Block Acquisition is expected to occur within 15 days following the
CFSL Shareholders’ Meeting, i.e., based on the contemplated timeline and subject to
satisfaction of all related conditions precedent, no later than mid-September.

Concomitantly with the signing of the agreement for the Block Acquisition, CFSL has
subscribed to 3,300 bonds convertible into shares issued by the Company, each such
convertible bond having a nominal value of €1,000, representing a total bond issue of
€3.3 million (the “Convertible Bonds”)3.

As a consequence of the delay in the Block Acquisition, CFSL has agreed to extend the
deadline by which it may request early redemption or conversion of the Convertible
Bonds should the Block Acquisition not be completed, from the original date of June
30th, 2025 to September 30, 2025. Likewise, CFSL and Vinpai have agreed to extend the
maturity date of the Convertible Bonds to October 25th, 2025. These two extensions
