Oslo, 4 October 2024: Reference is made to the stock exchange notice by Deep Value Driller AS ("DVD" or the "Company") on 26 March 2024 where DVD announced its dividend distribution policy, and to the board authorisation granted by DVD's annual general meeting on 14 May 2024 to resolve and distribute dividends in line with the Company's dividend policy based on the annual accounts for 2023.

DVD's board of directors has today resolved to distribute a dividend in the amount of NOK 1.00 per share, in total approximately NOK 86.4 million. The dividend is expected to be paid on or about 11 October 2024 and will be regarded as repayment of paid in capital by the shareholders of DVD. DVD notes that pursuant to the Company's loan facility, as amended 26 March 2024, the Company is required to retain an amount equal to 12 months of interest payments which is not available for distribution.

As set out in the Company's stock exchange notice of 26 March 2024, DVD's dividend distribution policy is to pay dividends from the group's operational free cash flow, after tax and debt service, to DVD's shareholders. The board has now resolved that dividend distributions shall be made on a monthly basis from and including November 2024. The timing and amount of dividends, if any, are at the discretion of the board. For tax purposes dividends will be classified as a repayment of paid in capital and not a taxable dividend, for as long as there is paid-in capital available on DVD's shares. For more information about the Company's dividend policy, please refer to the stock exchange notice of 26 March 2024.
