(April 10, 2026 - Oslo, Norway) Reference is made to the Annual General Meeting
of Nel ASA (Nel, OSE:NEL) held today where the updated guidelines regarding
determination of salary and other compensation to executive personnel, and the
one-time LTI vesting deviation related to a new LTI plan was approved,
effectively initiating a new Performance Share Unit (PSU) program, while
simultaneously discontinue the previous share option program.

The Company is replacing its previous long-term share option plan, which had no
performance requirements, with a Performance Share Unit (PSU) program that
includes performance criteria, long-term vesting and strict limits on awards,
aligning executive remuneration closely with shareholder interests and
prevailing market practice. As part of the transition to the new LTI structure,
a one-time technical deviation from the three-year vesting requirement has been
approved, whereby participating executives cancel all existing vested and
unvested option awards and instead receive two compensating PSU tranches vesting
after one and two years, respectively. For the new LTI program, annual PSU
allocations are capped at a value of up to 50% of base salary for the CEO and up
to 30% for other executives, and may be reduced based on individual annual
performance, ensuring responsible, performance-based long-term incentives.

A total of 14,933,025 PSUs have today been granted under the new program. Each
vested PSU entitles the holder to receive one share in the Company. The number
of PSUs will be reduced based on pre-set performance criteria at the end of the
performance period. Remaining PSUs after adjustment will, pursuant to the
vesting schedule, vest in full three years after the grant date, except for PSUs
granted under the one-time technical bridging program. Vesting is subject to the
PSU holder's continued employment with the Company at the time of vesting.
