Reference is made to the stock exchange announcement made by Ocean GeoLoop ASA
(the "Company") on 12 May 2026 regarding the successful private placement of
72,000,000 new shares (the "Private Placement"), and a potential subsequent
repair offering of up to 4,800,000 new shares in the Company (the "Subsequent
Offering").
The subscription period for the Subsequent Offering commences today, 8 June 2026
at 09:00 (CEST) and, subject to any extension, expires on 22 June 2026 at 16:30
(CEST) (the "Subscription Period").
The subscription price per new share in the Subsequent Offering (the "Offer
Shares") is NOK 0.50 (the "Subscription Price"), being the same subscription
price as in the Private Placement. The Subsequent Offering consists of up to
4,800,000 Offer Shares, raising gross proceeds of up to NOK 2,400,000. The net
proceeds to the Company from the Subsequent Offering will be applied towards
working capital, general corporate purposes, and development of the Company's
new business line COOL.
The Subsequent Offering is, subject to applicable securities laws, directed
towards existing shareholders in the Company as of 12 May 2026 (as registered
with Euronext Securities Oslo ("VPS") on 15 May 2026 pursuant to the VPS'
standard two days settlement procedure) (the "Record Date") who (i) were not
contacted or invited to participate in the Private Placement; (ii) were not
allocated shares in the Private Placement, and (iii) are not resident in a
jurisdiction where such offering would be unlawful or, would (in jurisdictions
other than Norway) require any prospectus, filing, registration or similar
action ("Eligible Shareholders").
Each Eligible Shareholder will receive 0.424 non-tradeable subscription rights
(the "Subscription Rights") for each share held by such Eligible Shareholder in
the Company as of the Record Date, rounded down to the nearest whole right. Each
Subscription Right will, subject to applicable securities laws, give the right
to subscribe for, and be allocated, one Offer Share in the Subsequent Offering.
Over-subscription and subscription without Subscription Rights will be
permitted. There can be no assurance that Offer Shares will be allocated for
over-subscriptions or subscriptions without Subscription Rights. The complete
terms and conditions of the Subsequent Offering, including allocation
principles, are set out in the Subscription Form (as defined below).
The Subscription Rights must be used to subscribe for Offer Shares before the
end of the Subscription Period. Subscription Rights which are not exercised
before the end of the Subscription Period will have no value and will lapse
without compensation to the holder.
Subscription procedure
Subscribers can subscribe for Offer Shares online or by submitting a correctly
completed subscription form for the Subsequent Offering (the "Subscription
Form"), within the Subscription Period. Subscribers who are residents of Norway,
with a Norwegian personal identification number, may subscribe for Offer Shares
through the VPS online subscription system (or by following the links on

Payment for and delivery of Offer Shares
Notifications of the number of Offer Shares allocated to subscribers are
expected to be distributed on or about 23 June 2026. The payment for Offer
Shares allocated will fall due on or about 25 June 2026 (the "Payment Date").
Subject to timely payment of the aggregate subscription amount for the Offer
Shares to be issued in the Subsequent Offering, the Company expects that the
share capital increase pertaining to the Subsequent Offering will be registered
with the Norwegian Register of Business Enterprises on or about 30 June 2026 and
that the Offer Shares will be delivered in the VPS and be tradeable on Euronext
Growth Oslo on or about the same date. The Offer Shares may not be transferred
or traded before the share capital increase pertaining to the Subsequent
Offering has been registered with the Norwegian Register of Business Enterprises
and the Offer Shares have been issued in the VPS.
Complete information on the terms and conditions of the Subsequent Offering,
including subscription procedures and allocation principles, is set out in the
Subscription Form. Subscriptions may only be made on the basis of the
