poLight ASA: Results of the Rights Issue

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

JAPAN, AUSTRALIA OR THE UNITED STATES, OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION IN WHICH SUCH

RELEASE, PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION WOULD BE UNLAWFUL. THIS ANNOUNCEMENT DOES

NOT CONSTITUTE AN OFFER OF ANY OF THE SECURITIES DESCRIBED HEREIN.

Reference is made to previous stock exchange announcements from poLight ASA

("poLight" or the "Company") regarding a fully underwritten rights issue of

12,918,660 new shares in the Company (the "Offer Shares"), raising gross

proceeds of NOK 135 million (the "Rights Issue").

The subscription period for the Rights Issue expired today, 28 April 2023, at

16.30 hours (CEST). At the expiry of the subscription period in the Rights

Issue, the Company had received valid subscriptions for a total of 16,116,569

Offer Shares, implying an oversubscription of 3,197,909 Offer Shares or of

approximately 25% of the total deal size. The final allocation of the Offer

Shares has now been completed based on the allocation criteria set out in the

prospectus prepared by the Company in connection with the Rights Issue, dated 13

April 2023 (the "Prospectus").

The final allocation shows that:

· 7,859,070 Offer Shares have been allocated based on validly exercised

subscription rights during the subscription period; and

· 5,059,590 Offer Shares have been allocated to underwriters of the Rights

Issue who has subscribed for Offer Shares during the subscription period (i.e.,

not based on subscription rights).

The allocation above implies that no Offer Shares will be allocated to

subscribers who have over-subscribed. Further, no subscriptions will be made by

underwriters pursuant to their underwriting obligations.

Notification of allocated Offer Shares and the corresponding subscription amount

to be paid by each subscriber will be distributed on 2 May 2023. The payment

date for the Offer Shares is 3 May 2023.

The Offer Shares may not be transferred or traded before they have been fully

paid by all subscribers and the share capital increase pertaining to the Rights

Issue has been registered with the Norwegian Register of Business Enterprises.

Subject to timely payment of the aggregate subscription amount in the Rights

Issue, it is expected that the Company's new share capital following the Rights

Issue will be registered with the Norwegian Register of Business Enterprises on

or about 10 May 2023 and that Offer Shares will be allocated to subscribers on

or about 11 May 2023. Subject to the aforementioned, the Offer Shares are

expected to be tradable on the Oslo Stock Exchange on or about 11 May 2023.

bookrunner for the Rights Issue.
