It is now 3:00 P.M. Norwegian time, and it's time to welcome you to this Extraordinary General Meeting of Vår Energi, which has been called up for the purpose of approving a dividend for Q2 2025. My name is Thorhild Widvey. I'm the Chair of the Board of Directors, and it's my pleasure to hereby welcome all of you and to declare the Extraordinary General Meeting for open. As per the notice of the meeting, the Board has proposed that Atle Reinseth Bang Hansen serves as Independent Chair of the Meeting. I give the floor to you. Please take over. Thank you for that, Thorhild. The General Meeting is now closed for additional shareholders to log in, and we will shortly move to the first item on the agenda. Before that, I can inform the meeting that we in total have shares present, which constitute approximately 81% of the share capital. The exact number of shares represented will be set out in detail in the Minutes from the Meeting. With that, I will move to the formal agenda items, and the opportunity to vote on these shall now also have been opened. The first item on the Agenda is the selection of Chair and Co-signatory. The Board has proposed that I chair the meeting as Independent Chair, and to co-sign the minutes, I propose that General Counsel Sverre Bjelland, who is present here, is elected. Shareholders who have not yet voted on this Agenda item may do so now. Everyone has then voted, and the count shows that Item One has been approved as proposed. Item Two for consideration today deals with the approval of the Notice and the proposed Agenda. The Notice for the Meeting has been distributed with the required three-week notice period and was also announced as a Stock Exchange release on 22nd July 2025. With no questions received to this, we will move to voting and ask those of you who have not done so to vote now. The vote is then closed, and the count shows that the Notice and the Agenda have been approved. We then come to Item Three on the Agenda: an approval of Interim Balance Sheet and Notes as per 30 June 2025. The Balance Sheet and Notes, together with the Auditor’s Statement, were published on 22nd July, and are available on the Company's web page. We have not received any questions to this Item, so we'll then move to voting also on this and ask those of you who have not yet done so to vote now. The vote is then closed, and the count shows that the Interim Balance sheet and Notes have been approved. That brings us to Item Four on the Agenda, the main item and the last item relating to distribution of Dividends. The proposed dividends will be based on the Interim Balance Sheet approved under the preceding item, and the resolution is otherwise set out in detail in the Notice for the Meeting. We have not received any questions on this Item, so again, I ask those of you who have not already voted to vote now. The vote is then closed, and the count shows that Item Four and the distribution of Dividends as proposed by the Board have been approved. With that, we have concluded the items that were set on the Agenda for today. Exact voting figures on each of the Items will appear in the Minutes of the Meeting, and the Minutes will be made available shortly on the company's website. With that, I declare the General Meeting adjourned, and on behalf of Vår Energi, I thank you all for participating.
