Noble is pleased to confirm certain post-completion details with its respect to its recently completed plan of arrangement (the “Arrangement”) under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario). Please refer to the news release issued by Noble on May 27, 2026 describing the completion of the Arrangement, and also the management information circular of Noble (the “Circular”) that was provided for the special meeting of Noble shareholders held on May 7, 2026. (Both documents are available under Noble’s profile at www.sedarplus.com.) The Arrangement took effect at 12:01 a.m. on May 27, 2026 (the “Effective Time”). A copy of that circular is also available under Noble’s profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.com.

In addition, the Company is treating $0.39 per whole Homeland Share as a return of capital to Noble’s shareholders. However, Noble disclaims any responsibility for the tax treatment adopted by any or all shareholders with respect to the Arrangement, as the tax position that applies to any shareholder will depend on a number of factors that are particular to that shareholder. Shareholders are encouraged to seek their own advice as to the tax treatment of the Arrangement applicable to them.
