NOTE 13 – OPTION AND SHARE PROGRAM

An equity settled option and share program was initiated by the Company in January 2022 towards a certain key employee of the subsidiary Standard Invest AS, granting the employee the option to purchase 10 000 000 shares of the Company on the date falling 18 months after 1 August 2021 and 10 000 000 shares on the date falling 30 months after 1 August 2021 at the strike prices of NOK1,25 and NOK 1,40 respectively. Total estimated fair value of the option at the grant date was calculated in Q1 2022 to USD 1,1 million. The Company has recognized the amount of USD 708 thousands as an expense with a corresponding increase in equity and a provision for social security cost of the option program of USD 91 thousands from the grant date up to 31 December 2024.

The vesting periods of the current program end in the period between 20 January 2023 and 30 January 2024. At initial recognition, the fair value of the options, as estimated by the Black-Scholes model, are straight-lined through the vesting period as administration expenses with corresponding entry against other paid in equity. Since the options are equity settled, no subsequent measurement is required under IFRS.

In January 2025, the Board of Directors of the Company was informed of an exercise of a total of 10,000,000 share options by the employee of the subsidiary. The share options were exercised at a price of NOK 1.05 per share, which equals the original exercise price of NOK 1.25 adjusted for a dividend distribution of NOK 0.20 per share in November 2024. The Company's Board of Directors has resolved to cash settle the exercised share options and the Company paid an amount to the employee equal to the difference between the exercise price of NOK 1.05 per share and the closing share price of the Company on the 17th of January 2025 of NOK 1.71 a total of USD 701 thousand.

In June 2025, the Board of Directors of the Company was informed of an exercise of a total of 10,000,000 share options by the employee of the subsidiary. The share options were exercised at a price of NOK 1.20 per share, which equals the original exercise price of NOK 1.40 adjusted for a dividend distribution of NOK 0.20 per share in November 2024. The Company's Board of Directors has resolved to cash settle the exercised share options and the Company paid an amount to the employee equal to the difference between the exercise price of NOK 1.20 per share and the closing share price of the Company on the 24th of June 2025 of NOK 1.845 a total of USD 744 thousand.

As a result of the above cash settlements, the amounts previously recognized by the Company in equity and as a provision for social security cost of the option program, have been settled.

The following are the amounts expensed to income statement for the nine months ended 30 September 2025:

(Amounts in USD 000)	30.09.2025	30.09.2024
Expenses arising from equity-settled share-based payment transactions	-	(9)
Social security reserves for equity-settled share-based payment transactions*	-	-
Total income arising from share-based payment transactions	-	(9)

^*Social security expenses are accrued if the options are in the money and the accrual for social security expenses will be updated quarterly, based on the development in the share price. An increase in share price will increase the value of the options, hence increase the social security expenses, whereas a decrease in share price will reduce the reserves, creating an income.

NOTE 14 – APPROVAL OF INTERIM CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

These interim condensed financial statements have been approved by the Board of Directors of the Company on 5 November 2025.
