Current Director Maurice Mason is about to embark on a sabbatical year pursuing
his dream of sailing the world by sailboat. After careful consideration, Mason

at the same time fully attend to his duties as a member of the Board of
Directors and have therefore asked to be relieved from his duties and resign as
director, to which the Board of Directors have expressed its understanding. The
Board of Directors have initiated a process to select replacement candidate(s)
to be presented to the shareholders for approval.

of the Board of Directors I would like to thank Maurice Mason for his valuable
service to the company. I am very grateful that Maurice joined Flyr in an early
phase and brought his extensive aviation experience and expertise to help
establish Norway's new airline, we wish him all the best and a safe journey when
he embarks on new adventures sailing the high seas. I would also take this
