As announced on 25 November 2022, the contemplated Subsequent Offering will be directed towards existing eligible shareholders in the Company as of 24 November 2022 (as registered with the VPS on 28 November 2022) who (i) were not included in the wall-crossing phase of the Private Placement, (ii) were not allocated shares in the Private Placement, and (iii) are not residents in a jurisdiction where such offering would be unlawful, or would (in jurisdictions other than Norway) require any prospectus filing, registration or similar action.

Completion of the contemplated Subsequent Offering will, inter alia, be conditional upon (i) the approval and publication of an offering prospectus (the "Prospectus"), to be approved by the Financial Supervisory Authority of Norway, and (ii) the prevailing trading price of the Company's shares exceeding the Offer Price. The share capital increase pertaining to the issuance of new shares in the Subsequent Offering will be resolved by the board of directors pursuant to the board authorisation granted by the Company's extraordinary general meeting on 9 December 2022.
