SUMMONS TO EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING IN NORDIC MINING ASA

Extraordinary general meeting in Nordic Mining ASA will be held

Thursday 30 March 2023 at 10:00 hours (CEST)

The general meeting will be held as a virtual general meeting. Shareholders will only be able to vote electronically. See the guide enclosed for more information about digital participation and voting. The meeting will be held in Norwegian.

AGENDA:

  • 1. Opening of the meeting by the Chairman of the Board or a person authorized by him, and registration of attending shareholders and shares represented by proxy
  • 2. Election of Chairman of the meeting and one person to co-sign the minutes together with the Chairman
  • 3. Approval of the summons and the agenda

4. Subsequent Offering

As announced on 3 March 2023, Nordic Mining has carried out a private placement with total gross proceeds of NOK 940 million ("Private Placement").

The board of directors proposes to carry out a subsequent offering ("Subsequent Offering"), with an offer to subscribe for up to 216,666,667 new shares at a price equal to the subscription price in the Private Placement, i.e. NOK 0.60 per share. The Subsequent Offering will be directed to existing shareholders in the company as of 2 March 2023 who (i) did not participate in the market sounding of the Private Placement, (ii) were not allocated Offer Shares in the Private Placement, and (iii) are not resident in a jurisdiction where such offering would be unlawful, or would (in jurisdictions other than Norway) require any prospectus filing, registration or similar action (the "Eligible Shareholders").

The Subsequent Offering will entail a waiver of existing shareholders' preferential right to subscribe for new shares in the company. The purpose of the Subsequent Offering is to contribute to equal treatment of shareholders. Therefore, the board considers the deviation to be reasonable and in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.

The board of directors proposes that the general meeting passes the following resolution:

"The share capital of the company shall be increased pursuant to section 10-1 of the public limited liabilities act on the following terms:

  • 1. The company's share capital shall be increased with minimum NOK 0.60 and maximum NOK 130,000,000.20 through the issuance of up to 216,666,667 new shares.
  • 2. The nominal value of each shares is NOK 0.60.
  • 3. The subscription price per offer share is NOK 0.60.
  • 4. The offer shares may be subscribed by shareholders that owned shares in the Company as of the expiry of 2 March 2023 (as documented in the Norwegian Central Securities Depository (VPS) as of expiry of 6 March 2023 (the "Record Date")) who (i) did not participate in the market sounding of the Private Placement, (ii) were not allocated Offer Shares in the Private Placement, and (iii) are not resident in a jurisdiction where such offering would be unlawful, or would (in jurisdictions other than Norway) require any prospectus filing, registration or similar action (the "Eligible Shareholders"). The shareholders' preferential right is deviated from.
  • 5. Non-tradeable subscription rights will be issued . The Eligible Shareholders will be granted non-tradeable subscription rights corresponding with their pro rata ownership as registered in the VPS per the Record Date. The number of subscription rights granted to each Eligible Shareholder will be rounded down to the nearest whole subscription right. Each subscription right gives the right to subscribe for and be allocated, one share in the subsequent offering.
  • 6. Over-subscription exceeding allotted subscription rights is permitted. In the event of an over-subscription, allocation will be carried out in the discretion of the board of directors.
  • 7. The Company has issued a prospectus approved by the Financial Supervisory Authority of Norway. The offer shares are to be subscribed for on a subscription form enclosed to the prospectus. The subscription period shall be from 31 March to 14 April 2023 at 1630 CEST. The board of directors may decide to extend the subscription period; nevertheless it shall expire no later than 28 April 2023.
  • 8. Payment for the subscription amount shall be made to a special share issue account. Due date for payment of the subscription amount is 20 April 2023. The board of directors may decide to extend the due date; nevertheless the due date for payment shall be no later than 4 May 2023.
  • 9. The offer shares shall carry rights to dividend as from the date in which the capital increase is registered with the Norwegian Register of Business Enterprises.
  • 10. The expenses of the share capital increase are estimated not to exceed NOK 5,000,000.

The general meeting resolved to amend section 4 of the articles of association to read:

"The company's share capital is [increased by minimum NOK 0.60 and NOK 130,000,000.20] divided on [increased by minimum 1 and maximum 216,666,667 shares] shares each with a nominal value of NOK 0.60. The company's shares shall be registered in the Norwegian Central Securities Depository.""

The board of directors is not aware of specific circumstances to be considered upon subscription of shares in the company/in the Subsequent Offering, beyond what is mentioned above and what has previously been announced to the market.
