If at any time after any bonus, option or other award is paid to the Employee the Company or the Group is required to restate its accounts to a material extent or the Company becomes aware of any material malfeasance or material wrongdoing on the Employee’s part, then the Company shall be entitled to recalculate the bonus that it would have awarded in each financial year, had these facts been known at the time the award was granted.

The Employee may not, during the employment relationship take employment with, have ownership interests in, or in any other way – directly or indirectly – be involved in any activity that wholly or partially competes with the Company or other companies in the Group. Without prejudice to any restrictions set out in the Business Combination Agreement, the Company may extend such non-compete for a period of up to 12 months after the end of the agreed notice period. The Employee shall similarly not engage in or perform work for customers and/or suppliers, if such activity can be deemed to have any negative impact to the competitive situation of the Company or the Group.

The Employee must not, in relation to the termination and for a period of 12 months after the end of the agreed notice period, directly or indirectly solicit or otherwise engage in direct or indirect communication with any present or past customers, suppliers or partners of the Company or the Group for himself or any other person. This applies to customers, suppliers or partners that the Employee has had contact with or been responsible for in any way during the last year before a statement is given by the Company in accordance with clause 12.6 below.

The Employee shall not during the same period of 12 months, directly or indirectly solicit, recruit, or endeavor to entice away any of Company or the Group’s employees.

The Company may decide in writing at any time during or in connection with termination of the employment relationship that the provisions in 12.2 to 12.4 shall not apply in whole or in part.

In case of any uncertainty as to whether an activity is covered by the prohibitions set out in this clause, the Employee is obliged both during the employment relationship and following a termination to present the issue to the Company and await a written statement from the Company before engaging in any relevant activity.

The Company shall provide a written statement on the applicability of clause 12.2 and 12.3 within four weeks after a request from the Employee or after termination of the employment relationship from the Employee. In case of a termination from the Company, the statement shall be given at the same time as the notice of termination or within one week after summary dismissal. The restrictions in clause 12.2 and 12.3 may be discharged in case a written statement as mentioned is not given in accordance with this clause 12.7.

In the event that the Employee is not entitled to the severance payment as set out in clause 15, due to the Employee’s notice of termination of the employment, the Company shall, during any extended non-compete period, pay a monthly compensation to the Employee corresponding to the Employee’s monthly base salary at the time the termination is notified in writing, as long as the Employee does not receive other salary or payments from the Company. The compensation does not form basis for holiday pay or pension entitlements.

If the Employee violates the provisions of clause 12.2, the Employee will no longer be entitled to payment by the Company and agrees to immediately reimburse the Company for compensation payments made during the prohibition period in accordance with clause 12.8. In the event of violation of the provisions of clauses 12.2 to 12.4, the Company may demand that the infringement immediately ceases and may take necessary legal actions. In the event of violation, the Employee shall pay liquidated damages equal to minimum three months’ base salary or indemnify the Company’s financial loss if greater. In addition, the Company may demand that the Employee pays the enrichment they and/or new employer/client etc. have achieved as a result of the illegal situation. Payment of compensation does not entail that the infringement may continue.

The Company’s electronic mail system, internet subscription and all other data systems are the exclusive property of the Company.

The Company's electronic mail system, internet subscription and all other data systems shall be, as far as possible, used by the Employee solely in connection with the Employee’s work for the Company.

The Employee acknowledges that the Employee shall have no right to access and shall not access the Company’s electronic mail system or other data systems after termination of employment.

All intellectual property rights, including patentable inventions, trademarks, design rights or copyrights, that are created or developed by the Employee during the course of his employment with the Company shall fully and wholly devolve upon and be the property of the Company or shall be transferred to the Company if such transfer is necessary under applicable statutory legislation. The same applies to similar creations that are not legally protected by patent, copyright or similar but that the Company or the Group has an interest in employing.

The Company shall by virtue of the employment relationship have an unrestricted, exclusive and gratuitous right to exploit such intellectual property rights and creations. Such intellectual property rights and creations shall without exception be deemed to have been created or developed in the course of the Employee's employment if the exploitation of the right or creation falls within the scope of the Company or the Group’s business. This applies notwithstanding that the Employee has created or developed the right outside working hours or outside the Company's premises.

The Employee is not entitled to any separate compensation for the Company’s utilization of rights as mentioned in this clause. The Employee shall unsolicited inform the Company of any rights that may fall within the scope of this clause, unless it is obvious that the Company is already aware of the right.

The Employee hereby waives his employment protection and other rights according to chapter 15 of the Working Environment Act against severance payment.

Subject to clause 15.5, the employment relationship may be terminated by the Company at any time by giving three months’ notice.

The Employee may at any time after the second anniversary after the Commencement Date (the “Lock-In Period”) terminate the employment relationship by giving three months’ notice. If the Employee terminates the Contract prior to expiry of the Lock-In Period, the Employee shall pay liquidated damages equal to three months’ base salary.

Termination shall be notified in writing, and the notice period shall be calculated from and including the first day of the month following the issuance of such notice.

The Employee shall be entitled to accelerated vesting of all options received and to a severance payment for a period of 18 months commencing at the expiry of the notice period if:

the Employee is asked by the Company to terminate the employment for any other reason than where the Employee (a) commits an act of gross misconduct or shows gross breach of duty which can justify termination of the employment agreement with immediate effect according to applicable law; (b) commits any serious breach or (after warning) repeated or continued material breach of the Employee’s obligations under the Contract; (c) is guilty of fraud, dishonesty or conduct tending to bring the Employee or the Company into disrepute; (d) is declared bankrupt; (e) is convicted of any criminal offence; (f) retires; or (g) reaches the Company’s retirement age, or

where the Employee’s employment is terminated within 12 months of a change of control of the Company as defined in the Company’s LTIP and the Employee’s employment has been terminated for a reason other than those listed in clause 15.5 (i) (a) – (g) above, provided that the Employee must be available to work for the Company full time for a period of 12 months.

The severance payment shall be calculated on the basis of the monthly base salary that the Employee receives at the time the termination is notified in writing. Payment of the severance payment shall take place monthly in accordance with the regular salary procedures of the Company. The severance payment does not constitute pensionable income and does not give right to the accrual of any holiday allowance. Taxes shall be deducted from the severance payment and the amount shall be reported to the tax authorities as regular salary in accordance with applicable regulations.

Upon termination of employment, the Employee shall return to the Company all property in the Employee’s possession, custody or control belonging to the Company, including but not limited to business cards, credit and charge cards, keys, security and computer passwords, mobile phones, personal computer equipment, original and copy documents or other media on which

Upon termination of employment, the Employee shall repay any debts that the Employee owes to the Company, and the Employee shall also release the Company of any guarantee or security for loans or responsibilities that the Company has provided on behalf of the Employee.

This Contract of Employment including Annex 1 attached hereto shall regulate all matters relating to the Employee's employment with the Company and shall, as from the Commencement Date, replace any and all former agreements or arrangements between the Employee and the Company relating to the Employee's employment with the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, the terms of the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan of Pubco (the "Share Plan") and any award agreement(s) in standard form ("Award Agreement") do not form part of this Contract and upon the termination of this Contract, the Employee shall not have any claims for damages or compensation in relation to it (whether by way of damages, compensation for loss of employment or otherwise) in relation to any equity or equity compensation, which will be governed by the terms of any applicable Share Plan and Award Agreement.

The Company will at payment of salary, bonus, allowances etc. withhold taxes, also related to taxable benefits, from such payable compensations and pay the withheld taxes to appropriate authorities in accordance with statutory provisions. The Employee acknowledges and agrees that any further tax liability on the Employee’s hand shall be carried solely by the Employee.

The Employee acknowledges that the Employee has carefully read this Contract, has had an opportunity to discuss it with advisors should so be desired, and understands all the terms and conditions therein.

In respect of all issues not regulated by the terms of this Contract, statutory provisions shall prevail.

If any provision of this Contract should be declared legally invalid or unenforceable by a competent court, such declaration shall in no way effect the validity or enforceability of any other provision thereof, nor shall any such declaration of legal invalidity or unenforceability operate to nullify or rescind this Contract, but shall only serve to render ineffective any such provision declared legally invalid or unenforceable. In lieu thereof, there shall be added a provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid and unenforceable provision as may be possible and be legal, valid and enforceable.

This Contract shall be governed by and construed in accordance with Norwegian law, including any statutory modification or re-enactment during the time the Contract being in force.
