The purpose of the program is to acquire shares that can be used as settlement

obligations arising from debt financial instruments that are exchangeable into
equity instruments in compliance with the EU Market Abuse Regulation article 5,
and as approved by the general meeting of the Company.
The buybacks will be made in accordance with the authorisation granted to the
board of directors by the Company's annual general meeting held on 10 June 2020.
According to the authorisation, up to 2,397,603 may be purchased at a minimum of
NOK 0.50 and a maximum of NOK 150 per share. The authorisation is valid until
the annual general meeting on 20 May 2021.
All acquisitions under the buyback program will be executed on Euronext Oslo
Børs. The execution of any repurchases will depend on market conditions, the
buyback programme may be discontinued at any time and the Company may resolve to
terminate the buyback programme before the threshold set out above is reached.
