Reference is made to the stock exchange announcement published by Golden Energy Offshore Services ASA (the “Company”) on 12 December 2025 regarding the successful placement of a private placement (the “Private Placement”) and the contemplated subsequent offering (the “Subsequent Offering”) of up to 5,625,000 new shares in the Company.
The Board of Directors has resolved to proceed with the Subsequent Offering by issuing up to 5,625,000 new shares in the Company, each with a nominal value of NOK 8.00, (the “Offer Shares”), raising gross proceeds of up to NOK 45,000,000. The resolution to increase the share capital was made pursuant to the authorisation granted to the Board of Directors by the annual general meeting of the Company held on 10 June 2025.
The terms and conditions for the Subsequent Offering are set out in a national prospectus prepared by the Company in accordance with chapter 7 of the Norwegian Securities Trading Act (the “Prospectus”), which today was registered with the Norwegian Register of Business Enterprises. No public authority has carried out any form of review, control or approval of the Prospectus. The Prospectus does not constitute an EEA prospectus.
The Prospectus and an ancillary subscription form will, subject to regulatory restrictions in certain jurisdictions, be made available at the following website of Pareto Securities AS (the “Manager”), prior to the commencement of the subscription period on 10 April 2026: www.paretosec.com/transactions.
The Subsequent Offering consists of an offering of up to 5,625,000 new shares in the Company at a fixed subscription price of NOK 8.00 per Offer Share, equal to the subscription price in the Private Placement. Subject to all Offer Shares being issued, the Subsequent Offering will generate gross proceeds of NOK 45 million.
The subscription period for the Subsequent Offering will commence on 10 April 2026 at 09:00 (CEST) and expire on 17 April 2026 at 16:30 (CEST) (the “Subscription Period”) (subject to any extension).
The Subsequent Offering is directed towards shareholders in the Company as of 12 December 2025 (as registered in the VPS two trading days thereafter, on 16 December 2025 (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”).
For each share recorded as held in the Company as of expiry of the Record Date, each Eligible Shareholder will be entitled to allocation of 1.847199 non-tradable subscription rights (the “Subscription Rights”), rounded down to the nearest whole Subscription Right. One Subscription Right will, subject to applicable law, give the right to subscribe for, and be allocated, one Offer Share. Oversubscription with Subscription Rights will be allowed. Subscription without subscription rights will not be allowed.
The Subscription Rights must be used to subscribe for Offer Shares prior to expiry of the Subscription Period on 17 April 2026 at 16:30 (CEST). Subscription Rights that are not exercised before the end of the Subscription Period will have no value and will lapse without compensation to the holder.
The Company reserves the right, at its own discretion, to shorten or extend the Subscription Period at any time and for any reason, without any prior written notice. If the Subscription Period is shortened or extended, the other dates set out herein may be amended accordingly.
Subscription for Offer Shares may be made by submitting a correctly completed subscription form (attached to the Prospectus) to the Manager in accordance with the terms and conditions set out in the Prospectus. Eligible Shareholders who are residents of Norway with a Norwegian national identity number (Nw.: fødsels- og personnummer) may subscribe for Offer Shares by way of online subscription. The subscription form and further instructions regarding the subscription procedure are available in the Prospectus.
Notifications of allocated Offer Shares and the corresponding subscription amount to be paid are expected to be made available to subscribers on or about 20 April 2026. The payment date for the Offer Shares allocated in the Subsequent Offering is expected to be on or about 22 April 2026. Subject to timely payment of the Offer Shares, 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 28 April 2026 and that the Offer Shares will commence trading on Euronext Oslo Børs on or about 29 April 2026.
The Offer Shares will, upon registration of the share capital increase pertaining to the Subsequent Offering with the Norwegian Register of Business Enterprises, be registered in the VPS in book-entry form. The Offer Shares will rank pari passu in all respects with the Company’s existing shares and will carry full shareholder rights from the time of such registration.
