Bermuda, March 14, 2023: Reference is made to the press release published by Cool Company Ltd. ("CoolCo” or the "Company”) on February 14, 2023 regarding the Company’s public filing of a registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to list its common shares on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE”) and on March 10, 2023 regarding the conclusion of the regulatory review process for the NYSE Listing and the update on the trading suspension.

In connection with the listing of the Company’s shares on the NYSE and to facilitate the transfer of the Company’s shares between the NYSE and Euronext Growth Oslo, the Company will amend the registration structure for its shares (the "Reregistration Process”). A trading suspension of the Company’s shares will be required in connection with the Reregistration Process (the "Trading Suspension”). Further, the Company will change its ticker code on Euronext Growth Oslo from "COOL” to CLCO” effective from and including March 17, 2023. 

Details on the Trading Suspension in CoolCo’s Shares

Due to the technical settlement requirements of Euronext Securities Oslo (the "VPS”), the central securities depository in Norway where the Company’s shares are registered, the Trading Suspension will be required from and including March 15, 2023 to and including March 16, 2023. Oslo Børs has approved the Company’s request for the Trading Suspension.

During the Trading Suspension, the Company’s shares will be temporarily suspended from trading on Euronext Growth Oslo. From the perspective of an investor holding the Company’s shares in the VPS, the last settlement cycle for shares traded prior to the Trading Suspension will take place on March 16, 2023. Investors trading in the Company’s shares prior to start of the Trading Suspension should not agree to settlement periods that would provide for settlement after March 16, 2023. Any such trades with settlement after March 16, 2023 are expected to be cancelled.

Following completion of the Reregistration Process, the Trading Suspension will end and the Company’s shares will resume trading as normal, which is expected to occur from and including the start of trading on March 17, 2023.

Set out below is the anticipated timeline of the Trading Suspension:

• March 14, 2023: Last day of trading in the Company’s shares on Euronext Growth Oslo prior to the Trading Suspension. All trades done on March 14, 2023 must be executed with regular settlement T+2 or shorter.

• March 17, 2023: Expected end of the Trading Suspension and the Company’s shares will resume normal trading from start of trading on Euronext Growth Oslo.

No action is required by an investor holding shares in the VPS in connection with the Trading Suspension, and investors’ holdings will continue to be registered in the VPS.
