Reference is also made to Note 11 to the Group's consolidated financial statements for 2024 and Item 12 of the report on Corporate Governance, which are included in the Company's Annual Report for 2024 that is available on the Company's web page, www.tgs.com.

The Board proposes that the general meeting makes the following advisory resolution: "The report pursuant to section 6-16b of the Norwegian Public Limited Liability Companies Act is approved."

15 Approval of long-term incentive plan and resolution to issue free-standing warrants

The Board proposes that the general meeting approves a long-term incentive plan for 2025, cf. the Norwegian Public Limited Liability Companies Act, sections 5-6 (3) and 6-16a, and as part thereof, issue new free-standing warrants.

Since 2015, the general meeting has approved share-based long-term incentive plans. These plans are generally secured by free-standing warrants. From these earlier plans, there are currently outstanding 2,958,578 free-standing warrants associated with performance share units or restricted share units that, as per the date of this notice, have been granted but not yet vested and exercised.

The proposed 2025 plan provides for the grant of performance share units (PSUs) and restricted share units (RSUs) on terms generally consistent with the Remuneration Policy. Upon vesting, the PSUs and RSUs will represent the right to receive shares of Company common stock as described below. The plan is limited to a maximum of 1,900,000 shares issuable upon vesting of the PSUs and RSUs. The plan will be administered by the Board. In the event of any merger, reorganization, recapitalization, stock dividend, stock split, combination of shares, share exchange, or other change in shares of the Company, the number of shares then subject to the plan, including shares subject to outstanding awards, will be adjusted in proportion to the change in outstanding shares.

PSUs: Pursuant to the proposed 2025 plan, similar to the 2024 plan, PSUs will be granted to members of the executive and senior leadership teams and will generally vest three years after the date of grant. Upon vesting, the holder of the PSUs will receive Company shares (if any), with the number of shares issuable determined by multiplying the number of PSUs granted by a factor of 0% to 100%. The factor is determined by performance over a threeyear measurement period against metrics further detailed under "Long-Term Incentive" in the Company's Remuneration Policy, which is issued alongside the Company's Annual Report for 2024 and is available on the Company's web page, www.tgs.com.

RSUs: Pursuant to the proposed 2025 plan, similar to the 2024 plan, RSUs will be granted to key employees, which may include members of the executive and senior leadership teams, and will also generally vest three years after the date of grant. Upon vesting, the holder of the RSUs will receive an equivalent number of Company shares, subject to achieving satisfactory performance against individual goals over the vesting period. The individual performance goals will be based on the performance criteria described in the Company's Remuneration Policy, with a focus on goals that support the corporate objectives for financial performance, strategic initiatives and sustainability and HSE.

The holders of the PSUs and RSUs must remain employed throughout the vesting period to receive shares issuable under the awards. The holders will also be required to pay the par value, currently NOK 0.25, for each share of Company stock issued pursuant to the PSU or RSU, as applicable. A cash bonus in an amount per unit that is equivalent to dividends that are paid on outstanding Company common stock will be accrued during the vesting period and paid as compensation in accordance with the payout of the awards.

The executive and senior leadership teams are subject to minimum Executive Stock Ownership Guidelines based on a multiple of salary for the CEO (4X), CFO (2X) and the rest of the executive team members and all senior leadership team members (1X). An executive or senior leader has five years from the date the individual is first subject to the guidelines to meet the required level of ownership.

The Board proposes that the Company secure the long-term incentive plan by the issuance of free-standing warrants, to be subscribed for at the time of grant by employees who are granted RSUs and PSUs.

Based on the above, the Board therefore proposes that the general meeting makes the following resolution (one vote to be given for the proposed resolution in its entirety, not for each item of the proposed resolution):

(i) The general meeting approves the 2025 long-term incentive plan.

  • (ii) The Company shall issue a minimum of 10,000 and a maximum of 1,900,000 freestanding warrants, however subject to the requirement that the number of issued and outstanding free-standing warrants shall in no event exceed 5 percent of the registered number of shares in the Company at the date of this resolution.
  • (iii) Each free-standing warrant shall give the right to subscribe for 1 share at par value.
  • (iv) The free-standing warrants may be subscribed for by employees who are granted rights under the long-term incentive plan upon the decision by the Board. Existing shareholders shall not have preferred rights to subscribe for the free-standing warrants pursuant to the Norwegian Public Limited Liability Companies Act section 11-13, cf. sections 10-4 and 10-5.
  • (v) The free-standing warrants shall be subscribed for on a separate subscription form at the latest by 31 December 2025. The employees shall not pay for the free-standing warrants issued.
  • (vi) The price to be paid for the shares issued on the basis of the free-standing warrants shall be the par value of the shares.
  • (vii) The right to request the issuance of shares under the free-standing warrants follows from the long-term incentive plan, but so that no free-standing warrant can be exchanged for shares later than five years following the date of this general meeting.
  • (viii) The holder of the free-standing warrants shall not have rights as a shareholder with regard to capital increases, capital reductions, new resolutions on the issue of warrants, dissolution, merger, demerger or reorganization, except with respect to shares that have been issued to and paid for by the free-standing warrant holder. Upon changes in the Company's share capital, such as share splits, reverse splits and other capital actions as provided for in the long-term incentive plan, the warrant terms (subscription price and number of shares to be issued upon exercise) shall be adjusted as set out in the long-term incentive plan.
  • (ix) Shares issued on the basis of the free-standing warrants shall give right to dividends declared following the date the shares are issued.
  • (x) As part of the long-term incentive plan, the free-standing warrants cannot be transferred. Any outstanding free-standing warrants shall be transferred back to the Company as and when the right to exercise the right to request shares in exchange for the free-standing warrants is lost pursuant to the underlying long-term incentive plan.

16 Board authorization to acquire own shares

The general meeting has in previous years granted the Board an authorization to acquire up to 10% of the shares in the Company. The Board's current authorization expires at the annual general meeting in 2025. To ensure continued flexibility in connection with potential acquisitions or other transactions, as well as to satisfy any obligations deriving from the Company's incentive program, the Board proposes that the general meeting grants a new authorization to acquire own shares in an amount up to 10% of the nominal value of Company's share capital.

The Board therefore proposes that the general meeting makes the following resolution:

(i) The Board is hereby authorized to acquire, on behalf of the Company, the Company's own shares up to 10% of the nominal value of Company's share capital, which pursuant to the current nominal value is up to NOK 4,910,020. The limitations shall be adjusted in the event of share consolidation, share reduction, share splits, and similar transactions, and for any reduction.

  • (ii) The lowest price to be paid per share shall be the par value and the highest price to be paid per share shall be the volume-weighted average price as quoted on the stock exchange for the five business days prior to the time of the acquisition plus 5%. The lowest price is equal to the current nominal value and shall be adjusted in the event of share consolidation, share splits, and similar transactions.
  • (iii) Acquisitions and sales of the Company's own shares can take place in the manner that the Board considers to be in the Company's best interest.
  • (iv) The authorization may be used once or several times. This authority shall be valid until the annual general meeting in 2026, however no longer than until 30 June 2026.
  • (v) The authorization shall replace previously granted authorizations to acquire own shares.

17 Board authorizations to (a) issue new shares and (b) issue convertible loans

The annual general meeting has previously granted the Board authorizations to increase the share capital by issuance of new shares and/or convertible loans.

The current authorizations granted at an extraordinary general meeting in July 2024 expire at the 2025 annual general meeting, and the Board therefore proposes that these authorizations are renewed with the same amounts, i.e. an authorization to, in each case, increase the share capital with a nominal amount corresponding to 10% of the current share capital, i.e. up to NOK 4,910,020.

Similar to the previous authorizations, the purpose of such authorizations is to provide the Board with financial flexibility (i) in connection with potential acquisitions, (ii) for organic growth of the Company and/or (iii) to strengthen the Company's balance sheet.

To exercise these authorizations in the best possible manner commercially, it may be relevant in certain situations to make a private placement of shares and/or convertible bonds to certain named persons and/or entities. The Board therefore requests that the authorizations also encompass the right to waive the shareholders' preemptive rights.

A / Share issue authorization:

Based on the above, the Board proposes that the general meeting grants an authorization to issue shares through the following resolution:

  • (i) In accordance with section 10-14 of the Norwegian Public Limited Liability Companies Act, the Board is granted the authorization to increase the Company's share capital by up to NOK 4,910,020 through one or more issuances of new shares or bonus issues. The subscription price and other subscription terms will be determined by the Board.
  • (ii) The capital increase may be paid in cash, by set-off or by other contributions in kind. The authorization includes the right to incur special obligations on behalf of the Company, cf. section 10-2 of the Norwegian Public Limited Liability Companies Act.
  • (iii) The shareholders' preemptive rights pursuant to section 10-4 of the Norwegian Public Limited Liability Companies Act to subscribe for any new shares may be deviated from by the Board, cf. section 10-5 of the Norwegian Public Limited Liability Companies Act.
  • (iv) The authorization shall encompass share capital increases in connection with mergers, cf. section 13-5 of the Norwegian Public Limited Liability Companies Act.
  • (v) The authorization is valid until the annual general meeting in 2026, but no later than 30 June 2026.
  • (vi) The authorization shall replace previously granted authorizations to issue new shares.

B / Convertible loan authorization:

Based on the above, the Board proposes that the general meeting grants an authorization to issue convertible loans through the following resolution:

  • (i) In accordance with section 11-8 of the Norwegian Public Limited Liability Companies Act, the Board is granted the authorization to issue loans for a total amount of up to NOK 2,250,000,000 with the right to require shares to be issued (convertible loans).
  • (ii) The share capital may be increased by up to NOK 4,910,020, provided that the combined number of shares that are issued pursuant to this authorization and the authorization in agenda item 17A above shall not exceed 10% of the Company's current share capital.
  • (iii) The subscription price and other subscription terms will be determined by the Board.
  • (iv) The shareholders' preemptive rights pursuant to section 11-4 of the Norwegian Public Limited Liability Companies Act may be deviated from by the Board, cf. sections 10- 4 and 10-5 of the Norwegian Public Limited Liability Companies Act.
  • (v) The authorization is valid until the annual general meeting in 2026, but no later than 30 June 2026.
  • (vi) The authorization shall replace previously granted authorizations to issue convertible loans.

18 Board authorization to distribute dividends and make group contributions

The annual general meeting for 2024 authorized the Board to distribute quarterly dividends and make group contributions on the basis of the 2023 financial statements. The authorization was granted as Norwegian law provides that dividends declared in the period between approval of the financial statements for one year and approval of the next year's financial statements will, absent a shareholder approved audited interim balance sheet, be considered as additional dividends based on the financial statements for the last year approved. The Board has reviewed the Company's financial situation, including the Company's distributable reserves according to the financial statements for 2024. On this basis and in accordance with the Company's dividend policy, the Board proposes that the authorization to distribute quarterly dividend payments and make group contributions to entities within the Group (Norwegian: konsernbidrag) be renewed and that the general meeting passes the following resolution:

"The Company authorizes the Board to distribute quarterly dividends and make group contributions to entities within the Group (Norwegian: konsernbidrag) on the basis of the financial statements for 2024. The Board shall, when using the authorization in relation to distribution of quarterly dividends, pass its decision in accordance with the Company's approved dividend policy. The authorization shall be valid until the Company's annual general meeting in 2026, but no later than 30 June 2026."
