Oslo, Norway, 10 February 2021: Reference is made to Xplora Technologies AS'
("Xplora" or the "Company") stock exchange announcement published earlier today,
on 10 February 2021, regarding a contemplated private placement (the "Private
Placement").

The Company is pleased to announce that the Private Placement has been
successfully completed raising approximately NOK 153 million in gross proceeds
through the issuance of new shares in the Company, at a price of NOK 42 per
share (the "Offer Shares"). The Private Placement took place through an
accelerated book building process managed by SpareBank 1 Markets AS (the
"Manager") after close of markets on 10 February 2020. The Private Placement
attracted strong interest from high quality investors and was multiple times
oversubscribed.

The net proceeds from the Private Placement will be used to (i) accelerate the
Company's growth plan as outlined in the Company's Admission Document published
on 17 November 2020, (ii) fund the pursuit of strategic M&A opportunities and
(iii) finance and ensure product developments and a strong balance sheet, as
well as for general corporate purposes.

Passesta AS, the company of Xplora's chairman, Tore Engebretsen, had
pre-committed to subscribe for Offer Shares in the amount of NOK 15 million.

Allocation of the Offer Shares has been resolved by the Board of Directors
following advice from the Manager and is expected to be communicated to
investors on 11 February 2021, before the market opens.
Settlement of the Private Placement will be on a delivery versus payment basis,
facilitated by existing and unencumbered shares in the Company being borrowed
from Passesta AS pursuant to a share lending agreement. Accordingly, the shares
delivered to the investors will be tradable from delivery. The Manager will
settle the share loan to Passesta AS with the issuance of new shares in the
Company, which was resolved issued by the Board of Directors in the board
meeting held today on 10 February 2021.

The share capital increase pertaining to the Private Placement is expected to be
delivered by the end of February 2021, following registration of the share
capital increase with the Norwegian Register of Business Enterprises (Norwegian:
Foretaksregisteret). Following registration of the share capital increase, the
Company's new share capital will be NOK 145,540.8 divided into 36,385,208
shares, each with a par value of NOK 0.004. Each share carries one vote.

The Private Placement represents a deviation from the shareholders' pre-emptive
right to subscribe for the Offer Shares. The Board of Directors has considered
the Private Placement in light of the requirements in the Norwegian Private
Limited Companies Act and the rules on equal treatment under Euronext Growth
Oslo Rule Book II for companies listed on Euronext Growth Oslo and Oslo Børs'
Guidelines on the rule of equal treatment. The Board of Directors has concluded
that the Private Placement is in compliance with these requirements and that
deviating from the shareholders' pre-emptive right would be in the common
interest of the Company and its shareholders.
In its assessment, the Board of Directors has inter alia emphasized that:
(i) The subscription price of NOK 42 per share is close to the Company's current
market price per share and is further based on a book building process.
(ii) The costs for the Company in connection with the private placement are
considered to be lower compared to other capital rising alternatives.
(iii) The private placement enables the Company to capitalise on current
favourable market conditions and secure financing for beneficial purposes, which
would not have been obtainable by structures with longer process time, such as a
rights offering or by other forms of capital raisings.
(iv) The relatively small size of the private placement compared to the
Company's issued share capital implies correspondingly low dilution levels for
existing shareholders.

Placement at the subscription price of NOK 42 per Offer Share:
