NORCOD AS: CONTEMPLATED PRIVATE PLACEMENT

NOT FOR RELEASE, PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION, IN WHOLE OR IN PART DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, IN AUSTRALIA, CANADA, JAPAN, HONG KONG OR THE UNITED STATES OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION IN WHICH THE RELEASE, PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION WOULD BE UNLAWFUL. Reference is made to the stock exchange notice from Norcod AS ("Norcod" or the "Company") published on 30 April 2026 regarding the contemplated private placement of new shares and new debt financing. Today, the Company announces that it intends to raise gross proceeds in the amount of approximately NOK 100 million at a price of NOK 10 per share (the "Offer Price"), implying issuance of approx. 10 million new shares in the Company (the "Offer Shares") (the "Private Placement"). The Private Placement is supported by the Shareholder Loan (as defined below) from Jerónimo Martins Agro-Alimentar S.A, which together with received pre-commitments will ensure that the Private Placement is fully covered. DNB Carnegie, a part of DNB Bank ASA, acts as sole bookrunner for the Private Placement (the "Manager"). The net proceeds from the Private Placement, together with the net proceeds from the New Debt Commitment (as defined and outlined below) and operational cash flow will be used to [support the Company's continued growth and upscaling strategy, including scaling up biomass and for general corporate purposes]. In connection with, and subject to completion of the Private Placement, DNB Bank ASA is committing an additional debt financing of NOK [120] million and Innovasjon Norge is expected to commit a new loan in the amount of NOK [50] million (subject to credit committee approval), to support the Company's growth plans (the "New Debt Commitment"). The Company has received pre-commitments for Offer Shares at the Offer Price for an amount equal to NOK 78 million from the main shareholders and certain primary insiders and close associates, including Jerónimo Martins Agro-Alimentar S.A (the "Pre-committed Investors"). In addition to the pre-commitment, Jerónimo Martins Agro-Alimentar S.A intends to provide a shareholder loan for up to NOK 30 million (the "Shareholder Loan") to secure that the Private Placement is fully covered, based on the received pre-commitments together with the Shareholder Loan. The Shareholder Loan will be scaled back depending on demand from other investors in the Private Placement. The Private Placement will be directed towards Norwegian and international investors, in each case subject to an exemption being available from offer prospectus requirements and any other filing or registration requirements in the applicable jurisdictions and subject to other selling restrictions. The minimum application and allocation amount has been set to the NOK equivalent of EUR 100,000. The Company may, however, at its sole discretion, allocate an amount below EUR 100,000 to the extent applicable exemptions from the offer prospectus requirement pursuant to the Norwegian Securities Trading Act and ancillary regulations are available. The application period in the Private Placement commences today at 09:00 CEST and will close today at 16:30 CEST (the "Application Period"). The Company and the Manager may, at their sole discretion, extend or shorten the Application Period at any time and for any reason and on short or without notice. If the Application Period is extended or shortened, the other dates referred to herein might be changed accordingly. The allocation of Offer Shares will be determined after the end of the Application Period, and the final allocation will be made at the sole discretion of Norcod's board of directors (the "Board"). The Company will announce the final number of Offer Shares placed in a stock exchange announcement expected to be published before the opening of trading on Euronext Growth Oslo on 13 May 2026. Completion of the Private Placement is subject to (i) the Board resolving to consummate the Private Placement, allocate the Offer Shares and resolving to summon for the EGM (as defined below), (ii) a resolution by the EGM to increase the share capital in order to facilitate the issuance of the Offer Shares and (iii) the Share Lending Agreement (as defined below) being in full force and effect. Completion of the DVP settlement of the Private Placement is furthermore subject to the shares to be borrowed pursuant to the Share Lending Agreement being available to the Manager. The Company reserves the right to cancel or modify the terms of the Private Placement at any time and for any reason prior to notification of allocation. Neither the Manager nor the Company or any of their directors, officer, employees, representatives, or advisors will be liable for any losses if the Private Placement is cancelled or modified, irrespective of the reason for such cancellation or modification. The Offer Shares, other than Offer Shares allocated to ArthaScope Kapitalforvaltning A/S, High Liner Foods and Sirena Group AS, are expected to be settled on a delivery versus payment basis on or about 29 May 2026 by delivery of existing and unencumbered shares in the Company that are already listed on Euronext Growth Oslo pursuant to a share lending agreement (the "Share Lending Agreement") to be entered into between the Company, the Manager and [Artha Norcod A/S]. New shares in the Private Placement will be issued by the extraordinary general meeting of the Company planned to be held on or about 27 May 2026 (the "EGM") and will be used to settle the share loan pursuant to the Share Lending Agreement. The Offer Shares (other than Offer Shares allocated to ArthaScope Kapitalforvaltning A/S, High Liner Foods and Sirena Group AS) will be tradable upon approval of the Private Placement and issuance of the Offer Shares by the EGM. Allocation of Offer Shares will be made at the sole discretion of the Board, in consultation with the Manager, and will be based on criteria such as (but not limited to) pre-commitments, perceived investor quality, existing ownership in the Company, timeliness of the application, early indication, relative order size, sector knowledge, investment history and investment horizon. Other than the Pre-committed Investors, there is no guarantee that any potential investor will be allocated Offer Shares. Notification of conditional allocation is expected to be issued to the applicants by the Manager on or about 13 May 2026. The Board has considered the Private Placement in light of the equal treatment obligations under the Norwegian Private Limited Liability Companies Act, and is of the opinion that the proposed Private Placement is in compliance with these requirements. The Board has considered alternative structures for the raising of new equity. Following careful considerations, the Board is of the view that it will be in the common interest of the Company and its shareholders to raise equity through a private placement setting aside the pre-emptive rights of the shareholders. By structuring the transaction as a private placement, the Company expects to be in a position to complete the share issue in today's market conditions in an efficient manner and at a higher subscription price than would have been the case for a rights issue. Taking into consideration the time, costs and expected terms of alternative methods of the securing the desired funding, the Board has concluded that offering new shares in a private placement on acceptable terms at this time is in the common interest of the shareholders of the Company. The Company may, subject to completion of the Private Placement and the Board being granted an authorization to this effect at the EGM, consider conducting a subsequent repair offering of new shares (the "Subsequent Offering"). If carried out, the size and structure of the Subsequent Offering shall be in line with market practice and be directed towards existing eligible shareholders in the Company as of 12 May 2026 (as registered in the CSD two trading days thereafter) (the "Record Date") who (i) were not included in the pre-sounding phase of the Private Placement, (ii) were not allocated Offer 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 (the "Eligible Shareholders"). The Subsequent Offering will be subject to approval by the EGM, whereas the Eligible Shareholders will receive non-tradeable subscription rights based on their registered shareholdings as at the Record Date. Completion of the Subsequent Offering will be subject to (i) completion of the Private Placement, (ii) relevant corporate resolutions, including approval by the EGM, (iii) the trading price of the Company's shares exceeding the Subscription Price and (iv) if required, the preparation and publication of a national prospectus (the "Prospectus") by the Company. The subscription period for any Subsequent Offering (if made) is expected to commence shortly after the EGM.
