(Oslo, 19 August 2021) Nel ASA has today resolved to grant options to all employees of the company that fulfil the requirements for participation in the employee share option plan.

A total number of 7,768,464 share options were granted in a groupwide program comprising all employees in Nel fulfilling certain criteria.
