Should a bondholder be in any doubt as to the action to be taken or be unclear about the implications of the Offer, it is recommended that they seek their own financial and legal advice, in particular with regard to any tax consequences, from their stockbroker, bank manager, solicitor, accountant or other independent financial or legal adviser. Any bondholder whose Bonds are held in his name by a broker, dealer, bank, custodian, trust company or other agent or intermediary must contact that party if it wishes to tender such Bonds under the Offer. Neither the Company nor Pareto Securities AS (“Settlement Agent”), nor its directors, employees or affiliates, makes any recommendation as to whether holders of Bonds should tender them for purchase under the Offer. Offer and distribution restrictions This document does not constitute an invitation to participate in the Offer in any jurisdiction where such an invitation or participation in the Offer would be unlawful under the applicable securities laws. The publication or distribution of this document may be subject to legal restrictions in certain jurisdictions. Persons who come into possession of this document are requested by the Company and the Settlement Agent to inform themselves of such restrictions and to comply with them. United States This document is not intended for publication, distribution or dissemination in or within the United States, to a US person within the meaning of Regulation S under the Securities Act, or to a person resident in a jurisdiction where the publication, distribution or dissemination of this document would be unlawful. This applies regardless of whether the transmission is by fax, email, telex, telephone, the internet or any other form of electronic communication. Accordingly, copies of this document and all other documents or materials relating to the offer shall not be sent or otherwise transmitted, distributed or forwarded, either directly or indirectly, into the United States or to a US person (including, without limitation, through custodians, nominees or trustees), and they may not be tendered in connection with the Offer through any such use, means, entity or by, to or through persons located or resident in the United States or by any US Person. Any purported tender of Bonds in connection with the Offer that is directly or indirectly based on a breach of these restrictions is invalid, and any purported tender of Bonds by a person resident in the United States, a US Person, a person acting for the account or benefit of a US Person, or by an agent, trustee or other intermediary acting on a non-discretionary basis for a principal and giving instructions from the United States, is invalid and will not be accepted. Any holder of Bonds participating in the Offer represents that he or she (i) is not a US Person, (ii) is not resident in the United States, (iii) is not participating in the Offer from the United States, or (iv) is acting on a non-discretionary basis for a principal who is resident outside the United States, who is not giving an order to participate in the offer from the United States, and who is not a US person. United Kingdom This document and any other documents or materials relating to the Offer have not been prepared by an authorised person within the meaning of section 21 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000, as amended, and such documents and/or materials have not been approved by an authorised person. Accordingly, these documents and/or materials are not being distributed to the general public in the United Kingdom and must not be passed on to them.

General Neither this document nor its electronic transmission constitutes an Offer to purchase or a solicitation of an Offer to sell Bonds (and offers to purchase Bonds under the Offer will not be accepted by holders) where such an Offer or solicitation is unlawful. In jurisdictions where the Offer must be made by an authorised broker or dealer under securities, blue-sky or other laws, and the Settlement Agent or one of its affiliates is such an authorised broker or dealer in such a jurisdiction, the Offer shall be deemed to have been made by such an affiliate in such a jurisdiction. Furthermore, the Offer does not constitute (i) a prospectus within the meaning of Chapter 7 of the Norwegian Securities Trading Act (No.: verdipapirhandelloven, as amended) or Regulation (EU) No 2017/1129 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 June 2017 (“Prospectus Regulation”), nor is it (ii) a takeover bid document within the meaning of Chapter 6 of the Norwegian Securities Trading Act. It is assumed that every holder of Bonds participating in the Offer makes certain further representations in relation to the above-mentioned jurisdictions and generally in accordance with the information set out in the application form for participation in the Offer, which is available from the Settlement Agent. An offer to repurchase Bonds under the Offer by a bondholder who is unable to give these representations will not be accepted. The Company reserves the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, in connection with any tender of Bonds for purchase under the Offer, to verify whether the representations made by a holder of Bonds are accurate, and – if such a verification is carried out and the Company consequently determines (for whatever reason) that a representation is inaccurate – to reject the tender to that extent. 25.09.2026 CET/CEST Dissemination of a Corporate News, transmitted by EQS News - a service of EQS Group.
