NOT FOR RELEASE, PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, IN OR

INTO, THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, AUSTRALIA, NEW ZEALAND, CANADA, THE HONG

KONG SPECIAL ADMINISTRATIVE REGION OF THE PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF CHINA OR JAPAN OR

ANY OTHER JURISDICTION WHERE SUCH PUBLICATION, DISTRIBUTION OR RELEASE WOULD BE

UNLAWFUL OR REQUIRE REGISTRATION OR ANY OTHER MEASURES.

Arendal, 11 January 2024: Reference is made to the stock exchange announcements

published by Norse Atlantic ASA (the "Company") on 4 November 2023 regarding

completion of a private placement of new shares in the Company (the "Private

Placement"), and a contemplated subsequent offering (the "Subsequent Offering").

The Company has today, on 11 January 2024, received approval by the Financial

Supervisory Authority of Norway for a prospectus for listing a portion of the

new shares (the "Unlisted Tranche 2 Shares") issued in the Private Placement and

for the offering and listing of the Offer Shares in the Subsequent Offering (the

"Prospectus"). The Prospectus will, subject to regulatory restrictions in

certain restrictions, be available at www.paretosec.com/transactions and

www.sb1markets.no/transaksjoner.

The Unlisted Tranche 2 Shares, in total 42,386,286 shares, were issued on a

separate interim ISIN following the Private Placement and have not been tradable

on Euronext Expand Oslo until the approval and publication of the Prospectus.

Following approval and publication of the Prospectus, the Unlisted Tranche 2

Shares will be tradable on Euronext Expand Oslo and all shares in the Company

will be registered on the Company's ordinary ISIN NO 0012885252.

The Subsequent Offering

The Company's board of directors has resolved to proceed with the Subsequent

Offering, which comprises the issuance of up to 9,100,000 new shares (the "Offer

Shares") in the Company at a subscription price of NOK 11.00 per share (the

"Offer Price"), directed towards Eligible Shareholders (as defined below),

potentially raising total gross proceeds of up to NOK 100.1 million. The Offer

Price is equal to the subscription price in the Private Placement.

The subscription period for the Subsequent Offering will commence tomorrow, 12

January 2024, at 09:00 CET, and will expire on 24 January 2024 at 16:30 CET (the

"Subscription Period").

The Subsequent Offering is directed towards existing eligible shareholders in

the Company as of 3 November 2023 (as registered with the VPS on 7 November 2023

(the "Record date")) who (i) were not included in the wall-crossing phase of the

Private Placement, (ii) were not allocated shares in the Private Placement, and

(iii) are not residents in a jurisdiction where such offering would be unlawful,

or would (in jurisdictions other than Norway) require any prospectus filing,

registration or similar action (together, the "Eligible Shareholders").

Each Eligible Shareholder will be granted 0.6330 non-tradeable subscription

rights (the "Subscription Rights") per 1 (one) share held in the Company, based

on their shareholding in the Company as of the Record Date, rounded down to the

nearest whole right without compensation to the holder. Each Subscription Right

will give Eligible Shareholders preferential right to subscribe for, and be

allocated, 1 (one) Offer Share. Over-subscription and subscription without

Subscription Rights will not be permitted. The Company reserves the right to

reduce the number of Offer Shares per Subscription Right in the event that (i)

additional Eligible Shareholders are identified after the date of this

Prospectus, and (ii) the Company receives in excess of 9,100,000 valid

subscriptions in the Subsequent Offering. Any such reduction will be made on an

equal basis and uniformly applied to all subscribers in the Subsequent Offering.

Subscriptions for Offer Shares must be made in accordance with the procedures

set out in the Prospectus. Subscription for Offer Shares may be made by

submitting a correctly completed subscription form, attached as Appendix B to

the Prospectus, to the Managers (as defined below) in accordance with the terms

and conditions set out in the Prospectus. The subscription form will together

with the Prospectus will be available on www.paretosec.com/transactions and

www.sb1markets.no/transaksjoner.

Subscribers who are residents of Norway with a Norwegian personal identification

number are encouraged to subscribe for Offer Shares through the VPS online

subscription system or by following the link on www.paretosec.com/transactions

and www.sb1markets.no/transaksjoner.

Allocation of the Offer Shares is expected to take place on or around 25 January

2024. Notifications of allocation of Offer Shares and the corresponding

subscription amount to be paid by each subscriber are expected to be distributed

by the Managers on or around 25 January 2024. The Company expects that allocated

Offer Shares will be delivered to the VPS accounts of the subscribers on or

about 5 February 2024, subject to timely payment by the subscriber.

The Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to cancel the Subsequent

Offering due to market conditions, including if the price of the Company's

Shares on Euronext Expand Oslo trade below the Offer Price in the Subsequent

Offering at a volume equal to or above the number of Offer Shares in the

Subsequent Offering.

Additional information regarding the Subsequent Offering and further

instructions regarding the procedures for subscription of the Offer Shares,

payment and delivery are included in the Prospectus.

coordinators and joint bookrunners in the Subsequent Offering (together, the

Company.
