Reference is made to Nordic Unmanned's announcements on the 21st of October and
5th of December regarding the letter of award received from the European
Maritime Safety Agency (EMSA) and the following successful Initial Configuration
Test (ICT). Nordic Unmanned has now received the signed EMSA/OP/5/2022 contract
for services providing multipurpose maritime surveillance, with a contract value
of up to EUR 20.5 million.

"We are very pleased to finally have concluded the signing of the largest
contract in the history of the company. This new land and /or vessel-based VTOL
(vertical take-off and landing) fixed-wing multipurpose maritime surveillance
contract creates a significant increase in our contract backlog for the next
four years. We are humbled to take on an even greater responsibility of
providing critical maritime surveillance for the European Union. Our ability to
support builds on years of investment in our operational capabilities," says
Knut Roar Wiig, CEO of Nordic Unmanned.

Nordic Unmanned will utilise its current crew and part of its current drone
fleet to serve this contract. Some specific additions and upgrades of payloads
and drones will be required to deliver operations under this framework contract.
Upgrades and additions to the fleet are expected to start from Q3 2023.

The first call-off under the framework contract is expected in Q1 2023, with
financial effect from Q1 2023. However, the main activity is expected to be
ramped up gradually during 2023, with full potential contract deliveries from
2024. The utilisation of the framework contract is contingent on call-offs from
the client during the lifetime of the contract, the same contract structure as
the current contracts Nordic Unmanned holds with EMSA.
