Oslo, 29 January 2026: Reference is made to the stock exchange announcement

regarding a contemplated private placement (the "Private Placement") of new

The Company is pleased to announce that the Private Placement was fully
subscribed at the subscription price of NOK 5.20 per share (the "Subscription
Price"), raising gross proceeds of approx. NOK 45 million through the allocation
of 8,653,846 shares (the "Offer Shares").

Pareto Securities AS acted as manager in the Private Placement (the "Manager").

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Private Placement for
general corporate purposes, including the continued development, enhancement and
commercialization of the Company's proprietary technology, working capital, debt
repayment, and liquidity management necessary to support the Company's
operations.

Holcim Technology Ltd. ("Holcim"), a subsidiary of Holcim AG, had pre-committed,
and has been allocated, Offer Shares for a total amount of approx. NOK 30
million at the Offer Price in the Private Placement.

Additionally, the following primary insiders in the Company have subscribed for,

· Sam Thivolle (COO): 96,153 shares
· Philipp Staggat (CPO): 23,076 shares
· Jacob Zeno Clausen Krøvel (SVP Investment and Strategy): 96,153 shares

Please see attached primary insider notification forms pursuant to article 19 of
the EU Market Abuse Regulation.

Notifications of allocation of Offer Shares are expected to be issued on or
about 30 January 2026 before 09:00 CET by the Manager.

The Offer Shares will be issued based on the existing board authorisation to
issue new shares granted by the Company's annual general meeting held on 21 May
2025.

Completion of the Private Placement is subject to (i) all necessary corporate
resolutions of the Company required to implement the Private Placement being
validly made by the Company, (ii) the pre-payment agreement between the Company
and the Manager remaining in full force and effect and Holcim (not covered by
the pre-payment agreement) paying its full allocation amount on 30 January 2026,
and (iii) the share capital increase pertaining to the issuance of the allocated
Offer Shares being validly registered with the Norwegian Register of Business
Enterprises (the "NRBE") and the allocated Offer Shares being validly issued and
registered in the Norwegian Central Securities Depository Euronext Securities
Oslo ("VPS") (jointly referred to as the "Conditions").

Settlement of the Offer Shares is expected to take place by delivery of Offer
Shares to the applicant's account in the VPS on a DVP basis on or about 4
February 2026, subject to timely payment and fulfilment of the Conditions.
Delivery of the Offer Shares allocated in the Private Placement will be settled
on a delivery-versus-payment (DVP) basis, facilitated by a pre-payment agreement
between the Company and the Manager. Offer Shares allocated to Holcim shall be
paid on 30 January 2026 and delivered when the Conditions are fulfilled
(expected on or about 4 February 2026) and therefore not be part of the DVP and
pre-payment arrangement.

The first day of trading on Euronext Oslo Børs for the Offer Shares is expected
on or about 3 February 2026, subject to registration of the share capital
increase in the NRBE and VPS. The Company will announce when such registrations
has taken place.

Following completion of the share capital increase pertaining to the Private
Placement, the Company will have a share capital of NOK 37,332,066.50 divided
into 74,664,133 shares, each with a nominal value of NOK 0.50.

Equal treatment

The Private Placement entails a deviation of existing shareholders' preferential
rights to subscribe new shares in the Company. The Board of Directors has
considered the equal treatment obligations under relevant acts and regulations.
The Board of Directors is of the opinion that the Private Placement is in
compliance with these requirements and that it is in the best interest of the
Company and its shareholders to raise equity through the Private Placement. By
structuring the equity raise as a private placement, the Company was able to
efficiently raise capital in an efficient manner without the significant
discount typically seen in rights issues, and without the need for a guarantee
consortium. It has further been taken into consideration that the Private
Placement is based on a publicly announced bookbuilding process and the repair
offering described below. The Private Placement structure also enables Holcim to
enter as a new strategic investor in the Company.

Subject to (among other things) (i) completion of the Private Placement (ii) the
necessary corporate approvals, (iii) the preparation, approval and publication
of a prospectus, and (iv) the prevailing market price of the Company's shares
following the Private Placement, the Board intends to carry out a subsequent
repair offering of up to 3,500,000 new shares to be issued by the Company at the
Offer Price, raising gross proceeds of up to NOK 18.2 million (the "Subsequent
Offering") which, subject to applicable securities law, will be directed towards
shareholders in the Company as of 29 January 2026 (as registered in the VPS two
trading days thereafter), who (i) hold less than 4% of the current shares
outstanding in the Company, (ii) were not allocated shares in the Private
Placement, and (iii) are not resident in a jurisdiction where such offering
would be unlawful or, for jurisdictions other than Norway, would require any
prospectus, filing, registration or similar action (the "Eligible
Shareholders"). The Eligible Shareholders are expected to be granted non
-tradable subscription rights. Over-subscription with subscription rights is
expected not to be allowed. Subscription without subscription rights is expected
not be allowed. The subscription period in the Subsequent Offering is expected
to commence shortly after publication of the prospectus, currently expected
during March/April 2026. The Company will issue a separate stock exchange notice
with further details on the Subsequent Offering. The Company reserves the right
in its sole discretion not to conduct or to cancel the Subsequent Offering based
on market conditions and other relevant factors.
