av aksjekapitalen ved nytegning av aksjer
under Selskapets insentivprogram.
12.
Proposal to give the authorization to the
Board to conduct capital increases by way of
share issue under the Company's incentive
program.
Styret foreslår at fullmakten som ble gitt på ordinær
generalforsamling i 2016 i hovedsak fornyes for ett
år. Fullmakten er begrenset til ca. 5 % av dagens
registrerte aksjekapital. Eksisterende aksjonærers
fortrinnsrett til tegning foreslås fraveket for å
muliggjøre utstedelse av aksjer til ansatte.
The Board proposes that the authorization given at
the general meeting in 2016 is substantially
renewed for one year. The authorization is limited
to approximately 5% of the current registered share
capital. Existing shareholders' pre-emption rights
to subscribe new shares are proposed set aside in
order to allow for issue of shares to employees.
Styret foreslår følgende vedtak: The Board proposes the following resolution:
«Selskapets styre tildeles fullmakt til å gjennomføre
kapitalforhøyelse, på følgende vilkår:
"The Company's Board is authorized to increase
the share capital, on the following conditions:
1.
Aksjekapitalen skal, i en eller flere omganger, i
alt kunne forhøyes med inntil NOK 106.256 ved
1.
The share capital may, in one or more rounds,
be increased by a total of up to NOK 106,256
utstedelse av opp til 2.125.120 nye aksjer i by the issuance of up to 2,125,120 new shares
Selskapet. in the Company.
2. Fullmakten kan benyttes til å utstede aksjer til
selskapets
ansatte
under
Selskapets
insentivprogram.
2.
The authorization may be used to issue shares
to
the
Company's
employees
under
the
Company's incentive program.
3. Fullmakten
skal
gjelde
til
ordinær
generalforsamling i 2018, likevel senest til 30.
juni 2018.
3.
The authorization shall be valid until the
ordinary general meeting in 2018, but no later
than until 30 June 2018.
4. Aksjeeieres fortrinnsrett til tegning av aksjer
kan settes til side.
4.
The
shareholders'
pre‐emption
for
subscription of shares may be set aside.
5. Fullmakten
omfatter
kapitalforhøyelse
mot
innskudd i andre eiendeler enn penger eller rett
til å pådra Selskapet særlig plikter.
5.
The authorization includes the increase of the
share capital in return for contributions in kind
or the right to incur on the assumptions of
special obligations of the Company.
6. Styret kan foreta de vedtektsendringer som
kapitalforhøyelsen(e) gjør påkrevd.

merger."
13. Forslag om fullmakt til styret til forhøyelse
av aksjekapitalen ved nytegning av aksjer
for oppkjøp og lignende.
13.
Proposal to give the authorization to the
Board to conduct capital increases by way of
share issues for mergers and acquisitions
etc.
Styret ser det som hensiktsmessig at aksjonærene
gir styret fullmakt til å utstede aksjer i forbindelse
med mulige oppkjøp. En slik fleksibilitet kan være
i Selskapets interesse, da det kan tenkes at styret må
handle raskt i tilknytning til oppkjøpsmuligheter
eller i forbindelse med å utnytte muligheter i
kapitalmarkedene.
The Board believes it is appropriate that the
shareholders
furnish
the
Board
with
an
authorization to issue shares in connection with
possible mergers and acquisitions. Such flexibility
can be in the interest of the Company, as the Board
may have to act quickly in relation to acquisition
opportunities
or
in
connection
with
utilizing
possibilities in the capital markets.
For at fullmakten skal kunne gi styret noe
fleksibilitet i forhold til størrelsen på en emisjon,
foreslås fullmakten begrenset til ca. 10 % av dagens
antall aksjer. Eksisterende aksjonærers fortrinnsrett
til tegning foreslås fraveket for å muliggjøre rettede
emisjoner.
In order to give the Board some flexibility with
respect to the size of any share issue, it is proposed
that the authorization is limited to approximately
10% of the current number of shares. Existing
shareholders' pre-emption rights to subscribe new
shares are proposed set
aside in order to allow for
private placements.
Styret foreslår følgende vedtak: The Board proposes the following resolution:
1. Aksjekapitalen skal, i en eller flere omganger, i
alt kunne forhøyes med inntil NOK 212.510,95
ved utstedelse av opp til 4.250.219 nye aksjer i
Selskapet.
1.
The share capital may, in one or more rounds,
be increased by a total of up to NOK
212,510.95 by the issuance of up to 4,250,219
new shares in the Company.
2. Fullmakten kan benyttes til å utstede aksjer som
vederlag ved oppkjøp innen Selskapets vanlige
forretningsområder eller i forbindelse med
egenkapitalutvidelser.
2.
The authorization may be used to issue shares
as consideration for acquisitions within the
Company's ordinary business sectors or in
connection with equity increases.
3. Fullmakten
skal
gjelde
til
ordinær
generalforsamling i 2018, likevel senest til 30.
juni 2018.
3.
The authorization shall be valid until the
ordinary general meeting in 2018, but no later
than until 30 June 2018.
4. Aksjeeieres fortrinnsrett til tegning av aksjer
kan settes til side.
4.
The
shareholders'
pre-emption
for
subscription of shares may be set aside.
5. Fullmakten
omfatter
kapitalforhøyelse
mot
innskudd i andre eiendeler enn penger eller rett
til å pådra Selskapet særlig plikter.
5.
The authorization includes the increase of the
share capital in return for contributions in kind
or the right to incur on the assumptions of
special obligations of the Company.
6. Styret kan foreta de vedtektsendringer som
kapitalforhøyelsen(e) gjør påkrevd.
6.
The Board is authorized to alter the Articles of
Association implied by the share capital
increase(s).
7. Fullmakten omfatter beslutning om fusjon.» 7.
The authorization does include decision on
merger."
14. Fullmakt til å erverve egne aksjer. 14.
Authorization to acquire own shares.
Styret er av den oppfatning at en beholdning av egne
aksjer vil gi Selskapet fleksibilitet, bl.a. i forhold til
oppfyllelse av aksjeinsentivprogrammer for ansatte,
og til finansiering av mulige oppkjøp og andre
mulige transaksjoner foretatt av Selskapet.
In the opinion of the Board, treasury shares will
give the Company flexibility, e.g. in terms of
satisfying employee share incentive plans
and to
fund possible acquisitions and other possible
corporate transactions by the Company.
slik Selskapet har tidligere hatt fullmakt til å erverve
egne aksjer, men har på nåværende tidspunkt ikke
fullmakt.
Styret
foreslår
derfor
at
generalforsamlingen
vedtar
å
gjeninnføre
slik
fullmakt til styret.
Previously, the Company has had the authorization
to acquire own shares, but no such authorization is
currently existing. The Board thus proposes that the
General Meeting resolves to reintroduce such
authority to the Board.
Den foreslåtte fullmaktens størrelse er like under 10
% av registrert aksjekapital. Fullmakten vil kun
benyttes innenfor gjeldende regelverk. Fullmakten
innebærer i seg selv ingen autorisasjon for styret til
å vedta nye insentivordninger for ansatte eller
styremedlemmer.
The size of the proposed authorization is slightly
below 10% of the registered share capital. The
authorization will only be utilized within applicable
rules and regulations. The authorization as such
does not give the Board the authority to adopt new
incentive schemes for employees or directors.
Forslag til vedtak: Proposed resolution:

Styret står fritt til å velge hensiktsmessige avhendingsmetoder for disse formål. 3. Den maksimale pålydende verdi av aksjene som totalt kan erverves i henhold til denne fullmakt er NOK 212.500. Det minste beløp som kan betales for hver aksje som kjøpes i henhold til denne fullmakt er NOK 1, og det maksimale beløp er NOK 100. 4.

The Board is free to choose the method of disposal considered expedient for such purposes. 3.

STATEMENT ON CORPORATE GOVERNANCE IN PANORO ENERGY ASA

Panoro Energy ASA ("Panoro" or "the Company") aspires to ensure confidence in the Company and the greatest possible value creation over time through efficient decision making, clear division of roles between shareholders, management and the Board of Directors ("the Board") as well as adequate communication.

Panoro Energy seeks to comply with all the requirements covered in The Norwegian Code of Practice for Corporate Governance. The latest version of the Code of October 30, 2014 is available on the website of the Norwegian Corporate Governance Board, www.nues.no. The Code is based on the "comply or explain" principle, in that companies should explain alternative approaches to any specific recommendation.

1.IMPLEMENTATION AND REPORTING ON CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

The main objective for Panoro's Corporate Governance is to develop a strong, sustainable and competitive company in the best interest of the shareholders, employees and society at large, within the laws and regulations of the respective country. The Board of Directors (the Board) and management aim for a controlled and profitable development and long-term creation of growth through well-founded governance principles and risk management.

The Board will give high priority to finding the most appropriate working procedures to achieve, inter alia, the aims covered by these Corporate Governance guidelines and principles.

The Norwegian Code of Practice for Corporate Governance as of October 30, 2014 comprises 15 points. The Corporate Governance report is available on the Company's website www.panoroenergy.com.

2.BUSINESS

Panoro Energy ASA is an independent E&P company based in London and listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange. The Company holds high quality production, exploration and development assets in West Africa, namely the Dussafu License offshore southern Gabon, and OML 113 offshore western Nigeria. In addition to discovered hydrocarbon resources and reserves, both assets also hold significant exploration potential. Panoro Energy was formed through the merger of Norse Energy's former Brazilian business and Pan-Petroleum on June 29, 2010. The Company is listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange with ticker PEN.

The Company's business is defined in the Articles of Association §2, which states:

"The Company's business shall consist of exploration, production, transportation and marketing of oil and natural gas and exploration and/or development of other energy forms, sale of energy as well as other related activities. The business might also involve participation in other similar activities through contribution of equity, loans and/or guarantees".

Panoro Energy currently has only one reportable segment with exploration and production of oil and gas, by geographic West Africa. In West Africa, the Company participates in a number of licenses in Nigeria and Gabon.

Vision statement

Our vision is to use our experience and competence in enhancing value in projects in West Africa to the benefit of the countries we operate in and the shareholders of the Company.

3.EQUITY AND DIVIDENDS

Panoro Energy's Board of Directors will ensure that the Company at all times has an equity capital at a level appropriate to its objectives, strategy and risk profile. The oil and gas E&P business is highly capital dependent, requiring Panoro Energy to be sufficiently capitalized. The Board needs to be proactive in order for Panoro Energy to be prepared for changes in the market.

Mandates granted to the Board to increase the Company's share capital will normally be restricted to defined purposes. Any acquisition of our shares will be carried out through a regulated marketplace at market price, and the Company will not deviate from the principle of equal treatment of all shareholders. If there is limited liquidity in the Company's shares at the time of such transaction, the Company will consider other ways to ensure equal treatment of all shareholders.

Mandates granted to the Board for issue of shares for different purposes will each be considered separately by the General Meeting. Mandates granted to the Board to issue new shares are normally limited in time to the following year's Annual General Meeting. Any decision to deviate from the principle of equal treatment by waiving the pre-emption rights of existing shareholders to subscribe for shares in the event of an increase in share capital will be justified and disclosed in the stock exchange announcement of the increase in share capital. Such deviation will be made only in the common interest of the shareholders of the Company.

Panoro Energy is in a phase where investments in the Company's operations are required to enable future growth, and is therefore not in a position to distribute dividends. Payment of dividends will be considered in the future, based on the Company's capital structure and dividend capacity as well as the availability of alternative investments.

4.EQUAL TREATMENT OF SHAREHOLDERS AND TRANSACTIONS WITH CLOSE ASSOCIATES

Panoro Energy has one class of shares representing one vote at the Annual General Meeting. The Articles of Association contains no restriction regarding the right to vote.

All Board members, employees of the Company and close associates must internally clear potential transactions in the Company's shares or other financial instruments related to the Company prior to any transaction. All transactions between the Company and shareholders, shareholder's parent company, members of the Board of Directors, executive personnel or close associates of any such parties, are governed by the Code of Practice and the rules of the Oslo Stock Exchange, in addition to statutory law. Any transaction with close associates will be evaluated by an independent third party, unless the transaction requires the approval of the General Meeting pursuant to the requirements of the Norwegian Public Limited Liabilities Companies Act. Independent valuations will also be arranged in respect of transactions between companies in the same Group where any of the companies involved have minority shareholders. Any transactions with related parties, primary insiders or employees shall be made in accordance with Panoro Energy's own instructions for Insider Trading.

The Company has guidelines to ensure that members of the Board and executive personnel notify the Board if they have any material direct or indirect interest in any transaction entered into by the Company.

5. FREELY NEGOTIABLE SHARES

The Panoro Energy ASA shares are listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange. There are no restrictions on negotiability in Panoro Energy's Articles of Association.

6. GENERAL MEETINGS

Panoro Energy's Annual General Meeting will be held by the end of June each year. The Board of Directors take necessary steps to ensure that as many shareholders as possible may exercise their rights by participating in General Meetings of the Company, and to ensure that General Meetings are an effective forum for the views of shareholders and the Board. An invitation and agenda (including proxy) will be sent out no later than 21 days prior to the meeting to all shareholders in the Company. The invitation will also be distributed as a stock exchange notification. The invitation and support information on the resolutions to be considered at the General Meeting will furthermore normally be posted on the Company's website www.panoroenergy.com no later than 21 days prior to the date of the General Meeting.

The recommendation of the Nomination Committee will normally be available on the Company's website at the same time as the notice.

Panoro Energy will ensure that the resolutions and supporting information distributed are sufficiently detailed and comprehensive to allow shareholders to form a view on all matters to be considered at the meeting.

According to Article 7 of the Company's Articles of Association, registrations for the Company's General Meetings must be received at least five calendar days before the meeting is held.

The Chairman of the Board and the CEO of the Company are normally present at the General Meetings. Other Board members and the Company's auditor will aim to be present at the General Meetings. Members of the Nomination Committee are requested to be present at the AGM of the Company. An independent person to chair the General Meeting will, to the extent possible, be appointed. Normally the General Meetings will be chaired by the Company's external corporate lawyer.

Shareholders who are unable to attend in person will be given the opportunity to vote by proxy. The Company will nominate a person who will be available to vote on behalf of shareholders as their proxy. Information on the procedure for representation at the meeting through proxy will be set out in the notice for the General Meeting. A form for the appointment of a proxy, which allows separate voting instructions for each matter to be considered by the meeting and for each of the candidates nominated for elections will be prepared. Dividend, remuneration to the Board and the election of the auditor, will be decided at the AGM. After the meeting, the minutes are released on the Company's website.

7. NOMINATION COMMITTEE

The Company shall have a Nomination Committee consisting of 2 to 3 members to be elected by the Annual General Meeting for a two year period. The Annual General Meeting elects the members and the Chairperson of the Nomination Committee and determines the committee's remuneration. The Company will provide information on the member of the Nomination Committee on its website. The Company will further give notice on its website, in good time, of any deadlines for submitting proposals for candidates for election to the Board of Directors and the Nomination Committee.

The Company aims at selecting the members of the Nomination Committee taking into account the interests of shareholders in general. The majority of the Nomination Committee shall as a rule be independent of the Board and the executive management. The Nomination Committee currently consists of three members, whereof all members are independent of the Board and the executive management.

The Nomination Committee's duties are to propose to the General Meeting shareholder elected candidates for election to the Board, and to propose remuneration to the Board. The Nomination Committee justifies its recommendations and the recommendations take into account the interests of shareholders in general and the Company's requirements in respect of independence, expertise, capacity and diversity.

The Annual General Meeting may stipulate guidelines for the duties of the Nomination Committee.

  1. CORPORATE ASSEMBLY AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS – COMPO-SITION AND INDEPENDENCE

The composition of the Board ensures that the Board represents the common interests of all shareholders and meets the Company's need for expertise, capacity and diversity. The members of the Board represent a wide range of experience including shipping, offshore, energy, banking and investment. The composition of the Board ensures that it can operate independently of any special interests. Members of the Board are elected for a period of two years. Recruitment of members of the Board may be phased so that the entire Board is not replaced at the same time. The Chairman of the Board of Directors is elected by the General Meeting. The Company has not experienced a need for a permanent deputy Chairman. If the Chairman cannot participate in the Board meetings, the Board will elect a deputy Chairman on an ad-hoc basis. The Company's website and annual report provides detailed information about the Board members expertise and independence. The Company has a policy whereby the members of the Board of Directors are encouraged to own shares in the Company, but to dissuade from a short-term approach which is not in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders over the longer term.

9. THE WORK OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The Board has the overall responsibility for the management and supervision of the activities in general. The Board decides the strategy of the Company and has the final say in new projects and/or investments. The Board's instructions for its own work as well as for the executive management have particular emphasis on clear internal allocation of responsibilities and duties. The Chairman of the Board ensures that the Board's duties are undertaken in efficient and correct manner. The Board shall stay informed of the Company's financial position and ensure adequate control of activities, accounts and asset management. The Board member's experience and skills are crucial to the Company both from a financial as well as an operational perspective. The Board of Directors evaluates its performance and expertise annually. The CEO is responsible for the Company's daily operations and ensures that all necessary information is presented to the Board.

An annual schedule for the Board meetings is prepared and discussed together with a yearly plan for the work of the Board.

Should the Board need to address matters of a material character in which the Chairman is or has been personally involved, the matter will be chaired by another member of the Board to ensure a more independent consideration.

In addition to the Nomination Committee elected by the General Meeting, the Board has an Audit Committee and a Remuneration Committee as sub-committees of the Board. The members are independent of the executive management.

Currently the Audit Committee consists of the complete Board. The reason for this is the rather low number of directors in the Company, which has led the Board to conclude that it is currently more efficient for the Board function that all directors also are members of the Audit Committee. This practice will be further assessed in the future.

10. RISK MANAGEMENT AND INTERNAL CONTROL

Financial and internal control, as well as short- and long term strategic planning and business development, all according to Panoro Energy's business idea and vision and applicable laws and regulations, are the Board's responsibilities and the essence of its work. This emphasizes the focus on ensuring proper financial and internal control, including risk control systems.

The Board approves the Company's strategy and level of acceptable risk, as documented in the guiding tool "Risk Management" described in the relevant note in the consolidated financial statements in the Annual Report.

The Board carries out an annual review of the Company's most important areas of exposure to risk and its internal control arrangements.

For further details on the use of financial instruments, refer to relevant note in the consolidated financial statements in the Annual Report and the Company's guiding tool "Financial Risk Management" described in relevant note in the consolidated financial statements in the Annual Report.

11. REMUNERATION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The remuneration to the Board will be decided by the Annual General Meeting each year.

Panoro Energy is a diversified company, and the remuneration will reflect the Board's responsibility, expertise, the complexity and scope of work as well as time commitment.

The remuneration to the Board is not linked to the Company's performance, and share options will normally not be granted to Board members. Remuneration in addition to normal director's fee will be specifically identified in the Annual Report.

Members of the Board normally do not take on specific assignments for the Company in addition to their appointment as a member of the Board

  1. REMUNERATION OF THE EXECUTIVE PERSONNEL

The Board has established guidelines for the remuneration of the executive personnel. The guidelines set out the main principles applied in determining the salary and other remuneration of the executive personnel. The guidelines ensure convergence of the financial interests of the executive personnel and the shareholders.

Panoro Energy has appointed a Remuneration Committee (RC) which meets regularly. The objective of the committee is to determine the compensation structure and remuneration level of the Company's CEO. Remuneration to the CEO shall be at market terms and decided by the Board and made official at the AGM every year. Remuneration to other key executives shall be proposed by the CEO to the RC.

The remuneration shall, both with respect to the chosen kind of remuneration and the amount, encourage addition of values to the Company and contribute to the Company's common interests – both for management as well as the owners.

Detailed information about options and remuneration for executive personnel and Board members is provided in the Annual Report pursuant to and in accordance with section 6-16a of the Norwegian Public Limited Companies Act. The guidelines are normally presented to the Annual General Meeting also as a separate attachment to the Annual General Meeting notice.

13. INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION

The Company has established guidelines for the Company's reporting of financial and other information.

  1. TAKEOVERS

Panoro Energy has established the following guiding principles for how the Board of Directors will act in the event of a take-over bid.

As of today the Board does not hold any authorizations as set forth in Section 6-17 of the Securities Trading Act, to effectuate defence measures if a takeover bid is launched on Panoro Energy.

The Board may be authorized by the General Meeting to acquire its own shares, but will not be able to utilize this in order to obstruct a takeover bid, unless approved by the General Meeting following the announcement of a takeover bid.

Enclosure 2

The Board of Directors will generally not hinder or obstruct takeover bids for the Company's activities or shares.

As a rule the Company will not enter into agreements with the purpose to limit the Company's ability to arrange other bids for the Company's shares unless it is clear that such an agreement is in the common interest of the Company and its shareholders. As a starting point the same applies to any agreement on the payment of financial compensation to the bidder if the bid does not proceed. Any financial compensation will as a rule be limited to the costs the bidder has incurred in making the bid. The Company will generally seek to disclose agreements entered into with the bidder that are material to the market's evaluation of the bid no later than at the same time as the announcement that the bid will be made is published.

In the event of a take-over bid for the Company's shares, the Board of Directors will not exercise mandates or pass any resolutions with the intention of obstructing the take-over bid unless this is approved by the General Meeting following announcement of the bid.

If an offer is made for the Company's shares, the Board will issue a statement evaluating the offer and making a recommendation as to whether shareholders should or should not accept the offer. The Board will also arrange a valuation with an explanation from an independent expert. The valuation will be made public no later than at the time of the public disclosure of the Board's statement. Any transactions that are in effect a disposal of the Company's activities will be decided by a General Meeting

15. AUDITOR

The auditor will be appointed by the General Meeting.

The Board has appointed an Audit Committee as a sub-committee of the Board, which will meet with the auditor regularly. The objective of the committee is to focus on internal control, independence of the auditor, risk management and the Company's financial standing.

The auditors will send a complete Management Letter/Report to the Board – which is a summary report with comments from the auditors including suggestions of any improvements if needed. The auditor participates in meetings of the Board of Directors that deal with the annual accounts, where the auditor reviews any material changes in the Company's accounting principles, comments on any material estimated accounting figures and reports all material matters on which there has been disagreement between the auditor and the executive management of the Company.

In view of the auditor's independence of the Company's executive management, the auditor is also present in at least one Board meeting each year at which neither the CEO nor other members of the executive management are present.

Panoro Energy places importance on independence and has established guidelines in respect of retaining the Company's external auditor by the Company's executive management for services other than the audit.

The Board reports the remuneration paid to the auditor at the Annual General Meeting, including details of the fee paid for audit work and any fees paid for other specific assignments.

16. REPORTING OF PAYMENTS TO GOVERNMENTS

This report is prepared in accordance with the Norwegian Accounting Act § 3-3d). It states that the companies engaged in the activities within the extractive industries shall annually prepare and publish a report containing information about their payments to governments at country and project level. The Ministry of Finance has issued a regulation (F20.12.2013 nr 1682 - "the regulation") stipulating that the reporting obligation only apply to reporting entities above a certain size and to payments above certain threshold amounts. In addition, the regulation stipulates that the report shall include other information than payments to governments, and provides more detailed rules with regard to definitions, publication and group reporting.

This report contains information for the activity in the whole fiscal year 2016 for Panoro Energy ASA.

The management of Panoro has applied judgement in interpretation of the wording in the regulation with regard to the specific type of payments to be included in this report, and on what level it should be reported. When payments are required to be reported on a project-by-project basis, it is reported on a field-by-field basis. Per management's interpretation of the regulation, reporting requirements only stipulate disclosure of gross amounts on operated licences as all payments within the license performed by Non-operators, normally will be cash calls transferred to the operator and will as such not be payments to government.

although Panoro Energy, through its subsidiaries, has extractive activities and ownership interest in two licences in West africa, namely Dussafu license offshore gabon and oML-113 offshore nigeria; both of the licenses are non-operated and as such only cash calls are disbursed to operating partners and therefore none of the payments during 2016 can be construed as payments direct to governments under the regulation. as such, no payment will be disclosed in these cases, unless the operator is a state-owned entity and it is possible to distinguish the payment from other cost recovery items. During 2016 the group has started oil production and received revenues for its interest in oML 113. There are customary royalty and taxes due on oil production in nigeria and as of December 31, 2016 the group had no tax liability and USD 97 thousand of net production royalty was paid indirectly to the government authorities in nigeria. The royalty payments were withheld at source from the cargo proceeds by the operator. as a result, the Company or its subsidiaries have not made any direct payments in relation to the non-

operated assets to the respective governments of gabon and nigeria.

DECLARATION FROM THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF PANORO ENERGY ASA ON EXECUTIVE REMUNERATION POLICIES (REF. SECTION 6-16a OF THE NORWEGIAN PUBLIC LIMITED COMPANIES ACT)

PART 1. Salaries, bonuses and other non-share based remuneration

Panoro Energy ASA has established a compensation program for executive management that reflects the responsibility and duties as management of an international oil and gas company and at the same time contributes to add value for the Company's shareholders. The goal for the Board of Directors has been to establish a level of remuneration that is competitive both in domestic and international terms to ensure that the Group is an attractive employer that can obtain a qualified and experienced workforce. The compensation structure can be summarized as follows:

responsibilities and retention
Shorm-term

as well as aligning interests with the shareholders

The Remuneration Committee oversees our compensation programs and is charged with the review and approval of the Company's general compensation strategies and objectives and the annual compensation decisions relating to our executives and to the broad base of Company employees. Its responsibilities also include reviewing management succession plans; making recommendations to the Board of Directors regarding all employment agreements, severance agreements, change in control agreements and any special supplemental benefits applicable to executives; assuring that the Company's incentive compensation program, including the annual, short term incentives and long- term incentive plans, is administered in a manner consistent with the Company's strategy; approving and/or recommending to the Board of Directors new incentive compensation plans and equity-based compensation plans; reviewing the Company's employee benefit programs; recommending for approval all administrative changes to compensation plans that may be subject to the approval of the shareholders or the Board of Directors; reviewing and reporting to the Board of Directors the levels of share ownership by the senior executives in accordance with the Share Ownership Policy adopted by the Company (see below).

The Remuneration Committee seeks to structure compensation packages and performance goals for compensation in a manner that does not incentivize employees to take risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Compensation Committee designs long-term incentive compensation, including restricted share units, performance units and share options in such a manner that employees will forfeit their awards if their employment is terminated for cause. The Committee also retains the discretionary authority to reduce bonuses to reflect factors regarding individual performance that are not otherwise taken into account.

Remuneration in 2016:

Remuneration for executive management for 2016 consists of both fixed and variable elements. The fixed elements consist of salaries and other benefits (health and pension), while the variable elements consist of a performance based bonus arrangement and a restricted share unit scheme that was approved by the Board of Directors and the shareholders in the Annual General Meeting in 2015

For 2016, the following was paid/incurred to the executives:

Any bonuses that were incurred and paid in 2016 were approved by the Board of Directors during 2016. The bonus paid in 2016 related to the achievement of performance standards set by the Board of Directors for the financial year 2015.

Evaluation, award and payment of cash bonuses is generally performed in the year subsequent to financial year end, unless stated otherwise. Any bonuses for 2016 performance will be awarded in the year 2017 and determined based on the criteria set by the remuneration committee that includes meeting milestones of measurable strategic value drivers, progress on portfolio of assets, and certain corporate objectives including reduction of administrative overhead costs and HSE performance.

Remuneration principles for 2017:

For 2017, remuneration for executive management consists of both fixed and variable elements. The fixed elements consist of salaries and other benefits (health and pension), while the variable elements consist of a performance based bonus arrangement and a restricted share unit scheme that was approved by the Board of Directors and the Company's shareholders in 2015.

Any cash bonuses to members of the executive management for 2017 will be capped at 50% of annual base salary. Evaluation, award and payment of cash bonuses is generally performed in the year subsequent to the financial year end 2017. The annual bonus for 2017 performance will be awarded in the year 2018 and determined based on the criteria set by the remuneration committee that includes meeting milestones of measurable strategic value drivers, progress on portfolio of assets, and certain corporate objectives including reduction of administrative overhead costs and HSE performance. These criteria will be individually tailored for each member of the executive team and will be determined by the Board of Directors as soon as is practicable after the reporting period. In general, the criteria applied for cash bonuses to members of the executive team during the previous financial year will, unless they contain confidential and company sensitive targets, be disclosed in the Company's annual remuneration statement for the financial year after grant.

Severance payments etc:

Per the respective terms of employment, the CEO is entitled to 12 months of base salary in the event of a change of control; whereby a tender offer is made or consummated for the ownership of more than 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the Company; or the Company is merged or consolidated with another corporation and as a result of such merger or consolidation less than 50.1% of the outstanding voting securities of the surviving entity or resulting corporation are owned in the aggregate by the persons by the entities or persons who were shareholders of the Company immediately prior to such merger or consolidation; or the Company sells substantially all of its assets to another corporation that is not a wholly owned subsidiary. Other members of the executive management team, at present, are not entitled to such remuneration at change of control.

Pensions:

The Company is required to have an occupational pension scheme in accordance with the Norwegian law on required occupational pension ("Lov om obligatorisk tjenestepensjon"). The Company contributes to an external defined contribution scheme and therefore no pension liability is recognized in the statement of financial position. Since the Company no longer employs any staff in Norway, this scheme is effectively redundant.

In the UK, the Company's subsidiary that employs the staff, contributes a fixed amount per Company policy in an external defined contribution scheme. As such, no pension liability is recognised in the statement of financial position in relation to Company's subsidiaries either.

Share ownership guidelines (SOG):

The Board of Directors, upon the Remuneration Committee's recommendation, has also adopted a SOG Policy for members of the executive management to ensure that they have meaningful economic stake in the Company. The SOG policy is designed to satisfy an individual senior executive's need for portfolio diversification, while maintain management share ownership at levels high enough to assure the Company's shareholders of managements' full commitment to value creation. Officers of the Company are required to invest in a number of shares valued at a multiple of their base salary in the amounts ranging from 3 times base salary for the CEO and 1 times the base salary of any other member of the executive management team. A member of the executive team has three years to comply with the ownership requirements starting from the later of either the date of appointment to a position noted above or from the date of adoption of the SOG Policy.

2016 – Compliance:

In 2016, the executives received base salaries and cash incentive bonuses in line with the executive remuneration policies as presented to the 2016 Annual General Meeting.

PART 2. Share based incentives

In June 2016, 200,000 Restricted Share Units were awarded under and in accordance with the Company's RSU scheme to the employees of the Company under the long term incentive compensation plan approved by the shareholders. One Restricted Share Unit ("RSU") entitles the holder to receive one share of capital stock of the Company against payment in cash of the par value for the share. The par value is currently NOK 0.05 per share. Vesting of the RSUs is time based. The standard vesting period is 3 years, where 1/3 of the RSUs vest after one year, 1/3 vest after 2 years, and the final 1/3 vest after 3 years from grant. RSUs vest automatically at the respective vesting dates and the holder will be issued the applicable number of shares as soon as possible thereafter.

For 2017, the Board of Directors will only issue share based incentives in line with any shareholder approved program. Awards will normally be considered one time per year and grant of share based incentives will in value (calculated at the time of grant) be capped to 100% of the annual base salary for the CEO and 50% of the annual base salary for other members of the executive management.
