NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION OR RELEASE, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, IN OR INTO THE UNITED STATES, CANADA, AUSTRALIA, THE HONG KONG SPECIAL ADMINISTRATIVE REGION OF THE PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF CHINA OR JAPAN OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION IN WHICH THE DISTRIBUTION OR RELEASE WOULD BE UNLAWFUL. OTHER RESTRICTIONS ARE APPLICABLE. PLEASE SEE THE IMPORTANT NOTICE AT THE END OF THIS ANNOUNCEMENT

Reference is made to the stock exchange announcement published by Desert Control AS (the "Company") on 1 July 2026 regarding a contemplated fully underwritten rights issue to raise gross proceeds of NOK 70 million (the "Rights Issue"). Completion of the Rights Issue is subject to, inter alia, approval by the extraordinary general meeting of the Company to be held at 17:00 (CEST) on 16 July 2026 (the "EGM"), as further set out in the notice of the EGM published on 2 July 2026 (the "EGM Notice").

The board of directors of the Company has today, in consultation with Arctic Securities AS (the "Manager") and in accordance with the underwriting agreements entered into between the Company and the underwriters in the Rights Issue, determined the proposed subscription price for the new shares to be offered in the Rights Issue (the "Offer Shares"), and thus also the number of subscription rights and Offer Shares to be issued in the Rights Issue. The proposed subscription price per Offer Share is NOK 0.2733, corresponding to the theoretical share price exclusive of the subscription rights (TERP) calculated on the basis of the volume-weighted average price (VWAP) of the Company's shares on Euronext Growth Oslo over the last three trading days prior to the date of the EGM, less a discount of 32.5%.

Attached to this announcement are updated versions of the proposed resolutions concerning the Rights Issue to be approved at the EGM. The updated resolutions, which replace those previously included in the EGM Notice, now specify (i) the amount of the share capital increase pertaining to the Rights Issue, (ii) the number of Offer Shares and (iii) the subscription price per Offer Share. Additionally, the amounts proposed for the board authorisations have also been updated.

This information is published in accordance with the requirements of the Continuing Obligations.
