The shares of the Company and the right to vote for shares

The Company is subject to the provisions of the Norwegian Public Limited Liability Companies Act (the NPLCA). As of today, the Company's share capital is NOK 12,084,844.36, divided into 604,242,218 shares each having a par value of NOK 0.02. Each share is entitled to one vote at the general meeting and otherwise has equal rights. There are no limitations for voting rights set out in the articles of association, however, no voting rights may be exercised for the Company's own shares (treasury shares) or for shares held by the Company's subsidiaries. As per the date hereof, the Company holds no own shares.

Each shareholder has the right to vote for the number of shares owned by the shareholder on 30 May 2025 (the Record Date). A shareholder who wishes to attend and vote at the general meeting must therefore be registered in the shareholder register in Euronext Securities Oslo (VPS) as of the Record Date or have reported and documented an acquisition of shares as per the Record Date. Shares that are acquired after the Record Date do not entitle the holder to attend and vote at the general meeting. Owners of shares held through a custodian must additionally ensure that the company is notified separately, see below.

The shareholders' rights

Shareholders have the right to attend the digital general meeting in person or by proxy. Shareholders have the right to submit written questions at the general meeting. They are also entitled to be accompanied by an advisor, who may likewise submit written questions on their behalf. A shareholder cannot demand that new items are added to the agenda when the deadline for such request has expired, cf. Section 5-11 second sentence of the NPLCA.

A shareholder has the right to make alternative proposals for a resolution regarding the items which will be considered by the general meeting, provided that such alternative proposals lie within the scope of matters on the agenda.

A shareholder has the right to require board members and the general manager to provide available information to the general meeting that may affect the consideration of matters submitted to shareholders for decision. The same applies to information regarding the Company's financial condition including information on other companies in which the company participates and other matters to be addressed at the general meeting, unless the information required cannot be disclosed without causing disproportionate harm to the Company.

If additional information is necessary, and an answer cannot be given at the general meeting, a written answer shall be prepared within two weeks from the date of the general meeting. Such answer shall be available to the shareholders at the Company's premises and be sent to shareholders requesting the information. If the answer is considered material for evaluation of the circumstances mentioned in the previous paragraph, the answer should be sent to all shareholders with known address.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS' REASONING AND PROPOSAL FOR THE RESOLUTIONS TO BE PASSED

Item 1 Opening of the general meeting by the person appointed by the Board of Directors to open the meeting (no voting)

The extraordinary general meeting will be opened by Ketil E. Bøe.

Item 2 Election of a person to chair the meeting, and a person to sign the minutes of the meeting

The Board of Directors proposes that the general meeting passes the following resolution:

"Ketil E. Bøe is elected to chair the meeting. Valborg Lundegaard is elected to co-sign the minutes."

Item 3 Approval of the notice of the meeting and the agenda

The Board of Directors proposes that the general meeting passes the following resolution:

"The general meeting approves the notice and agenda for the meeting."

Item 4 Approval of the audited Interim Balance Sheet

In connection with the proposed dividend distribution outlined in item 5, the Board of Directors has prepared an Interim Balance Sheet as of 14 May 2025 which includes the dividend from Aker Carbon Capture AS. The Interim Balance Sheet is available at the Company's website www.akercarboncaptureasa.com.

The Board of Directors proposes that the general meeting passes the following resolution:

"The audited Interim Balance Sheet as of 14 May 2025 is approved."

Item 5 Distribution of dividend based on the Interim Balance Sheet

Following the sale of Aker Carbon Capture AS' remaining 20% shareholding in SLB Capturi AS (previously Aker Carbon Capture Holding AS) on 9 May 2025 (the "Transaction"), the Company has received a dividend distribution from its subsidiary and holds a significant cash position. The Board of Directors has proposed that the general meeting resolves to distribute all available cash, including the proceeds from the sale of the interest in SLB Capturi AS, as dividend to the shareholders, based on the audited Interim Balance Sheet as of 14 May 2025. The Board of Directors is of the view that the proposed cash distribution will entail a de facto discontinuation of the Company's business. A formal liquidation process and delisting will be initiated and it is the opinion of the Board of Directors that the Company will have sufficient funds following the proposed distribution to settle any obligations or potential liabilities until completion of the formal liquidation of the Company. The Board of Directors is thereby of the opinion that the proposed distribution is appropriate and that the Company will continue to have adequate equity and liquidity after the distribution.

Based on and subject to approval of item 4 above, the approval of the Interim Balance Sheet, the Board of Directors proposes that the general meeting passes the following resolution:

"Aker Carbon Capture ASA shall distribute a cash dividend of NOK 2.86 per share, which represents a total dividend distribution of approximately NOK 1.7 billion. The dividend shall be paid to the Company's shareholders as of 6 June 2025 (as registered in the VPS as of 11 June 2025). The dividend shall be paid out when the interim balance has been registered in the Register of Company Accounts, and is expected to be paid on or about 20 June 2025."

Item 6 Amendment to the articles of association

Page 2 of 2

The Board of Directors is of the opinion that the distribution outlined in item 5 may be deemed as a de facto discontinuation of the Company's business meaning that the Company's purpose as set out in the articles of association will change.

Based on and subject to approval of item 4 above, approval of the Interim Balance Sheet, and item 5 above, approval of the distribution of dividend, the Board of Directors proposes that the general meeting passes the following resolution:

"Article 2 of the Company's articles of association shall be amended as follows:

"The company's purpose is to have ownership interest in other companies, as well as activities naturally associated with this.""

To the General Meeting of Aker Carbon Capture ASA

Independent Auditor's Report on the Interim Balance Sheet

Opinion

We have audited the Interim Balance Sheet of Aker Carbon Capture ASA (the Company) as at 14 May 2025 showing an equity of NOK 1 796 630 185. The Interim Balance Sheet comprise the balance sheet, a summary of significant accounting policies and notes.

In our opinion, the accompanying Interim Balance Sheet in all material respects, express the financial position of the Company as at 14 May 2025 with the accounting principles as set out in note 2 to the Interim Balance Sheet.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Interim Balance Sheet section of our report. We are independent of the Company as required by relevant laws and regulations in Norway and the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants' International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including International Independence Standards) (IESBA Code), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Emphasis of Matter – Basis of accounting

We draw attention to note 1 to the Interim Balance Sheet, which describes the basis of accounting. The Interim Balance Sheet is prepared as Aker Carbon Capture ASA will conduct a distribution of dividends (the Norwegian Public Limited Liability Companies Act § 12-1). As a result, the Interim Balance Sheet may not be suitable for another purpose. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Responsibilities of the Board of Directors and the Managing Director for the Interim Balance Sheet

The Board of Directors and the Managing Director (Management) are responsible for the preparation of the interim Balance Sheet in accordance with the accounting principles as set out in note 2 to the Interim Balance Sheet, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of the Interim Balance Sheet that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the Interim Balance Sheet, Management is responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern. The Interim Balance Sheet use the going concern basis of accounting insofar as it is not likely that the enterprise will cease operations.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Interim Balance Sheet

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Interim Balance Sheet as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs, will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of the Interim Balance Sheet.

As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  • identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Interim Balance Sheet, whether due to fraud or error. We design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
  • obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control.
  • evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used, and the reasonableness of the overall presentation of the interim balance sheet.
  • conclude on the appropriateness of Management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the Interim Balance Sheet or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

We communicate with the Board of Directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
