subscription price per share of NOK 0.60 and no consideration for the warrant.

Each warrant holder may exercise all or some of its warrants in the period

beginning on 2 December 2024 and ending on 13 December 2024. Two warrants give

the right to require issue of one ordinary share. Exercise shall be carried out

by written notice, which shall be received by the Company within the

abovementioned exercise period. The subscription price upon exercise of the

warrants shall for subscription of one share in the Company be 70% of the ten

-day VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price) Company's shares on Euronext Growth

Period, but never lower than NOK 0.10 per share and never higher than 1.20 per

Out of the maximum number of new shares to be issued in the rights issue, a

maximum of 14,367,509 new shares will be issued to the part of the shareholder

based which trades shares in Norway through Euronext Securities Oslo (VPS) (the

"Norwegian Offering"), and a maximum of 44,046,223 new shares will be issued to

the part of the shareholder based which trades shares in Sweden through

Euroclear Sweden AB (the "Swedish Offering"). The split is based on the

The Board's statement with the auditor's confirmation, will be made available at
