Transaction highlights

  · Sale of 15% working interest (WI) in the Yme field
  · Fixed consideration of USD 15.65 million
  · All related decommissioning costs to be transferred to Lime. In addition,
Lime will pay OKEA a post-tax consideration of USD 9.2 million in 2027 which
will be repaid to Lime in four 25 per cent tranches upon completion of four pre
-defined stages of abandonment of the field
  · Effective date 1 January 2024
  · Expected closing before end of 2024

OKEA CEO, Svein J. Liknes stated: "Following several years as a partner in the
Yme licence, we have decided to exit a non-core area with a relatively small
holding. The divestment allows OKEA to focus financial and human resources in
our core areas, and we are pleased to announce this transaction with Lime
Petroleum to the mutual benefit of both parties."


Accounting implications of the Transaction

Following the Transaction, OKEA expects to recognise a post-tax accounting gain
in the area of NOK 150 - 250 million. OKEA's production in 2024 will
subsequently be reduced by 3.0 - 3.5 kboepd. Upon settlement of the Transaction,
all liabilities relating to the Yme field will be derecognised from OKEA's
statement of financial position (balance sheet). Figures in this section are
subject to potential changes in working capital movements, macro developments
and performance at Yme in the fourth quarter of 2024.

The Transaction is conditional upon Norwegian governmental approval and is
expected to be completed before year-end 2024.
