Members who wish to receive a printed copy of the Annual Report may submit a written request via e-mail to [email protected] with the member’s full name and mailing address clearly indicated.

A description of the competencies and executive functions of the Directors to be re-elected can be accessed at the Company’s website at https://www.bwenergy.no/en/this-is-bw-energy/#management. A copy of the Nomination Committee’s recommendations, which sets out information relating to the re-election of Directors, remuneration to the Directors, and members of the Nomination Committee, is available at the Company’s website at https://www.bwenergy.no/en/news-and-media/.
-
The Company generally follows the Norwegian Code of Practice principle that executive management should not serve on the Board. However, on the recommendation of the Nomination Committee, the Board has endorsed the nomination of the Chief Executive Officer as a Board member. This reflects the CEO’s foundational role in establishing the Company’s strategy, operations, and stakeholder relationships, and the Board’s view that his institutional knowledge and industry expertise add material value to Board deliberations at the Company’s current stage of development. The Board is satisfied that its composition remains balanced, with a clear majority of independent non-executive directors, and that robust governance structures ensure appropriate separation of responsibilities. The Board will keep its composition under review as the Company develops.
-
Only those members entered on the register of members of the Company at close of business (CEST) on 6 May 2026 shall be entitled to attend and vote at the Annual General Meeting in respect of the number of shares registered in their name at that time. Changes to entries on the register of members after close of business (CEST) on 6 May 2026 shall be disregarded in determining the rights of any person to attend and vote at the Annual General Meeting or any postponement or adjournment thereof.
-
Every member entitled to attend and vote at the Annual General Meeting or any postponement or adjournment thereof is entitled to appoint a proxy to attend and vote in such member’s stead on a show of hands or on a poll. A Form of Proxy is enclosed for this purpose. A proxy need not be a member of the Company. A member who is entitled to cast two or more votes at the Annual General Meeting or any postponement or adjournment thereof may appoint more than one proxy.
-
To be valid, the Form of Proxy must be received by DNB Bank ASA, Registrars Department, Oslo, Norway not later than 10:00 a.m. CEST on 7 May 2026 in accordance with the Notes of the Form of Proxy enclosed herewith. The mailing address of DNB Bank ASA is: DNB Bank ASA, Issuer Services, P.O. Box 1600 Sentrum, 0021 Oslo, Norway. Alternatively, the Form of Proxy can be sent to DNB Bank ASA by e-mail to [email protected] not later than the aforementioned date and time.
-
If properly executed, the shares issued in the capital of the Company represented by the proxy (the “Shares”) will be voted in the manner directed by the member on the Form of Proxy. The proxy holder shall also have discretion to vote the Shares for or against any amendments to motions duly made at the Annual General Meeting or any postponement or adjournment thereof. If no direction is given, the Shares will be voted in favour of the motions as recommended by the Board of Directors (including amendments thereto approved by the Board of Directors) when duly presented at the Annual General Meeting or any postponement or adjournment thereof. The proxy holder shall have discretion to vote the Shares on any other matters as may otherwise properly come before the Annual General Meeting or any postponement or adjournment thereof.
