Reference is made to the stock exchange announcement dated 21 January 2025. As described in the stock exchange announcement, DNB Bank ASA, Swedbank AB (publ) and Danske Bank A/S NUF claim that the Company has breached the restructuring agreement for the group entered into on 19 June 2020. The three banks finance the vessels Havila Foresight and Havila Harmony.
The Company disputes that there is any breach of the restructuring agreement. It is the Company' postion that the three banks are obliged to convert outstanding amounts under the non-interest-bearing B tranches under the restructuring agreement into shares, as is agreed in the restructuring agreement.
The other creditors in the restructuring agreement share the Company's view and have already converted their B tranches into shares.
On 24 March 2025, the Company filed a lawsuit with Oslo District Court to resolve the dispute with the three banks, cf. also the Company's stock exchange announcement on the same day.
Oslo District Court ruled on the case on 8 December 2025 in the Company's disfavour. The judgment is not final. The Company disagrees with the judgement and announced on the same day that it would appeal. The deadline for appeal is 19 January 2026. The merits of the case is expected to be decided by Borgarting Court of Appeal in 2026 or early 2027.
DNB Bank ASA, Swedbank AB (publ) and Danske Bank A/S NUF have nevertheless today demanded prepayment of their outstanding amounts under the restructuring agreement. The banks have also given notice that they will take legal action to enforce their security and establish execution liens.
The banks' outstanding debt consists of interest-bearing debt of NOK 130.8 million as at 30 September 2025 and non-interest-bearing B-tranche debt with a nominal value of MNOK 595.1 as at 30 September 2025. In addition, interest and default interest of MNOK 7.9 is claimed.
The company maintains that the banks' claims are unfounded. The company will accordingly dispute that there are grounds enforce security and establish execution liens.
The company will demand compensation for any losses it may incur as a result of the banks' unlawful actions and failure to convert the banks' B tranches upon expiry of the restructuring agreement on 31 December 2025.
The banks' notice is not expected to affect the Company's operations or service of the group's bond loan HAVFI01 PRO.

Reference is made to the stock exchange announcement 1 October 2024, informing that three bank lenders, and the bondholders in two bond loans had decided to have their debt settled at the end of 2024 in accordance with the terms of the restructuring agreement.
It was also reported that three banks chose to extend the restructuring agreement by one year related to two vessels in operation and four sold vessels.
Reference is also made to the stock exchange announcement of 30 December 2024, where settlement of the debt related to Havila Borg, Havila Clipper, Havila Fanø and Havila Subsea was announced.
Cash settlement of NOK 499.6 million was refinanced by a bond issue and non-interest-bearing debt of NOK 522.3 million was converted into shares.
Three banks that extended the restructuring agreement are financing the PSV vessel Havila Foresight and the subsea vessel Havila Harmony.
Total interest-bearing debt related to these vessels amounts to NOK 151.5 million and non-interest-bearing debt related to these vessels, as well as four sold vessels, amounts to NOK 616.3 million.
According to the restructuring agreement, the vessels in question will service this debt through 2025 and the remaining interest-bearing debt will be refinanced and settled in cash at the end of 2025 and the remaining non-interest-bearing debt will be converted into shares.
The company has received a letter on behalf of the three banks that extended the restructuring agreement,
claiming that the refinancing and issue of bond loan, which was used to redeem the debt of lenders who chose settlement at the end of 2024 in accordance with the agreement, is in breach of the restructuring agreement.
It is also alleged that certain other circumstances constitute a breach of the restructuring agreement.
The remaining lenders claim that they will be entitled to declare default on the outstanding debt, both interest bearing and non-interest bearing as set out above, as well as to claim default interest and to enforce security.
The company disputes in full the lenders' understanding of the restructuring agreement.
The company will, if necessary, have the matter resolved legally.
There is no cross-collateral or cross-default to the NOK 525 million bond loan issued in December 2024.
