In accordance with Sections 6-16a and 6-16b of the Norwegian Public Limited Companies Act, the Board of poLight ASA has submitted this annual report of remuneration for executive personnel. Requirements are described in the regulations on guidelines and reporting of remuneration of executive personnel of 11 December 2021 no. 2730.
The purpose of the Report is to give an overview of paid and retained salary and other remuneration from the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries (jointly, the "Group") to the members of the Board and to executive personnel for 2024, pursuant to the Company's remuneration policy as approved by the Company's general meeting on 14 September 2024. The remuneration policy is available on the Company's website, and has been adopted with the following overall objectives:
poLight ASA was founded in 2005 and is publicly traded on the Oslo Stock Exchange (OSE: PLT). The company offers a patented, state-of-the-art tunable optics technology, leveraging its proprietary polymer and piezo MEMS technology. Its first product TLens® replicates "the human eye" experience in autofocus cameras used in applications such as AR/MR devices, smartphones, wearables, webcams and other consumer devices, industrial barcode scanners and machine vision systems, and healthcare applications. With over 160 granted patents, poLight's technology delivers extremely fast focus, small footprint, ultra-low power consumption, no magnetic interference, and constant field of view, enabling better imaging system performance and new user experiences compared to alternative technologies.
poLight® has built a world-class team with expertise in optics, polymers, MEMS technology, imaging applications and camera systems. This team is establishing poLight® as the world leader in tunable optics. poLight® is a fabless company that uses MEMS foundry, assembly, and packaging services from wellestablished suppliers. poLight® is headquartered in Tønsberg, Norway, with employees in Finland, France, China, Taiwan, USA, UK, the Philippines and Japan.
Overall progress in 2024 was encouraging. At the close of the year, poLight´s TLens® was incorporated into 28 different products, representing both consumer and professional applications and confirming the versatility and market potential of poLight's unique technology. There was a high level of customer engagement in various segments throughout the year, which has led to design-wins in strategically important market segments. Nevertheless, the conversion of commercial wins into revenues was lower than the company would have liked.
poLight is actively engaged in several market areas. This includes consumer applications, such as smartphones, augmented/mixed reality (AR/MR), laptops, webcams, smartwatches and other accessories,

as well as a broad range of professional applications, such as enterprise AR/MR, barcode/machine vision and scientific-related products.
In addition, the automotive and healthcare markets are being monitored, although these are not currently given a high priority, as the need for autofocus is likely some years away. There are also other factors to consider, specifically relating to the need for a bigger aperture TLens® for the automotive market and a smaller TLens® related to the medical/endoscope market.

The overall objective of the remuneration guidelines for the Executive Management Team is to offer senior executives employment conditions which are competitive when salary, benefits in kind, bonus and pension schemes are viewed as a whole.
The remuneration to members of the executive management consists of a fixed salary in combination with certain benefits in kind, an achievement-based bonus, in addition to participation in a share option scheme.
The fixed salary is set annually, considering a range of factors including; (i) the individual's skills, performance and experience, (ii) increases for the broader workforce, (iii) external market data amongst peer companies, (iv) the size and responsibilities of the role, and (v) the geographical location of the role, internal relativity and external economic environment.
The members of the Executive Management Team are entitled to complimentary phone, internet access at home and are included in the company insurance scheme. In addition, the Company covers individual insurance policies for the CEO, pays a cash compensation to the CEO for him not having a company car and a newspaper subscription.
For the period up to closing 2024 the CEO was entitled to an annual bonus, which was capped up to 80% of his annual fixed salary. Other members of the Executive Management Team were entitled to an annual bonus of up to 40% of their annual fixed salary. Bonus payments are as main principle, based on the satisfaction of pre-defined achievement criteria. In addition, the Board of Directors may grant discretionary bonuses following proposals from the Remuneration Committee.
poLight ASA, the Norwegian entity, is the only company in the group that has a defined contribution pension plan. The plan is in accordance with the mandatory requirements under Norwegian law.
The amount of Company paid pension contributions is set considering the wider workforce rate and market practice in each country.
The Company has established a share option program for all of its employees and selected consultants. Each option gives the holder a conditional right to require issuance of one share in the Company at a defined strike price (corresponding to the market price, or higher, of the shares in the Company at the time the options were granted). The Company may, in its sole discretion, deliver existing shares to an option holder instead of newly issued shares.
The share options are vested over 3 years, and exercisable with 1/12 each quarter over 3 years, starting at the date of grant. The company is liable for corporate taxes including National Insurance up to 20%.
Vesting is conditional on the employee's continued employment in poLight. The Board may decide another vesting scheme, including a shorter vesting period, for individual grants of share options, when this is deemed to be in the interest of the company.

Exercisable share options may as a general rule, be exercised and shares issued once per quarter each following the release of poLight ASA's quarterly reports. All vested options that have not been exercised within the latest exercise date (normally 5 years from the effective date) shall generally lapse automatically at such date. However, if the Board of Directors has resolved not to open an exercise window following release of a quarterly report or if an option holder has been subject to lock-up arrangements during the term of the share options, the Board of Directors may, at its sole discretion, decide to extend the term of the share options for up to a period corresponding to the exercise windows that were not opened and/ or the length of the lock-up arrangements.
The employment agreement with the members of the executive management may be terminated by both parties with a notice period of three months. If the CEO is given a notice to resign from the Company, the CEO will be entitled to nine months' severance payment in addition to salary in the notice period. The CEO is consequently entitled to 12 months of salary following a notice to resign from the Company. The right to severance payment does not apply if the CEO himself resigns, and deductions in severance payment may be made if other earned income or social security is received.
For other members of executive management, the Company shall, as a main guideline, not agree on severance payments, unless this is considered necessary to secure necessary expertise for the Company and otherwise is in accordance with the main principles of the Company's remuneration policy.

The Company cannot demand repayment of variable remuneration unless obvious miscalculations or nonentitled payments have been made.
The pension scheme in Norway is based on a defined contribution plan, and the premium is calculated on the basis of the employees' income. In 2023 and 2024, 7% of the salary between 0G (1G=NOK 124,028 per May 1, 2024) and 7.1G, and 15% of the salary between 7.1G and 12G was calculated.
Bonus payments are payable at the point of time the trigger is confirmed and capped at 80% of the annual fixed salary for the CEO. Other members of the Executive Management Team were entitled to an annual bonus of up to 40% of their annual fixed salary.

The terms of the share options imply that exercise windows for exercising the stock options shall be opened, normally each quarter after the presentation of quarterly reports. Throughout the term of these options, the Board has on several occasions not been able to open such exercise windows. The Board therefore extended the expiry date with one year for 157,215 share options issued in 2019 (held by the CEO), originally expired in June 2024. In addition, the board made a resolution to offer a replacement share option agreement (after cancellation) to all share option holders.
The executive management did not exercise share options in 2024.
Although the share options expire 5 years from the date of the grant, any vested options are required to be exercised no later than the first exercise window after an employee's last day of service with the company.
In the case of an offeror becoming the owner of at least 9/10 of the issued shares of poLight, all of the unvested share options become immediately vested and exercisable.
