Oslo, 8 November 2023

Reference is made to the offer document dated 27 July 2023 (the "Offer
Document") for the recommended voluntary offer (the "Offer") by Kangaroo BidCo
AS (the "Offeror") to acquire all outstanding shares ("Shares") in Kahoot! ASA
("Kahoot!" or the "Company") for a cash consideration of NOK 35.00 per share
(the "Offer Price"). Reference is further made to the announcement dated 9
October 2023 regarding the preliminary results of the Offer. Reference is also
made to the settlement notification dated 11 October 2023 (the "Settlement
Notification").

The Offer was accepted for a total of 251,984,624 Shares, which, taken together
with the 148,015,955 Shares to which the Offeror is conditionally entitled
pursuant to the investment agreement dated 14 July 2023 (the "Investment
Agreement"), equals 400,000,579 Shares, equivalent to approximately 81.16% of
the share capital and voting rights in the Company.

Additionally, the Offeror's related party entities, Kangaroo TopCo S.à r.l.,
WSCP VIII Emp Investments B S.à r.l., ELQ Lux Holding S.à r.l. and Special
Situations 2022 Lux S.à r.l. have acquired or agreed to acquire 14,470,218
Shares, which taken together with the Shares under the Offeror and the Shares
which the Offeror is conditionally entitled pursuant to the Investment
Agreement, equals an aggregate of 414,470,797 Shares, representing approximately
84.10% of the share capital and voting rights of the Company.

Provided that the other closing conditions remain satisfied until settlement of
the Offer or are waived by the Offeror, settlement will take place no later than
Thursday 9 November 2023, being twenty (20) Business Days (as defined in the
Offer Document) after the Settlement Notification.

Following the completion of the Offer, subject to the closing conditions, the
Offeror intends to make a mandatory offer to acquire the remaining Shares
pursuant to chapter 6 of the Norwegian Securities Trading Act. If the Offeror
becomes the owner of 90% or more of the Shares and voting rights in the Company,

Shares pursuant to section 4-25 of the Norwegian Public Companies Act and
section 6-22 of the Norwegian Securities Trading Act.
