ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
FREYR Battery, a company organized under the
laws of Luxembourg (“Pubco”), filed on March 26, 2021 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”)
a registration statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-254743) which was amended on May 7, May 27 and June 9, 2021 (as amended, the “Registration
Statement”), which includes a preliminary proxy statement of Alussa Energy Acquisition Corp., a Cayman Island exempted company
(“Alussa”), and a prospectus in connection with the proposed business combination transaction (the “Business
Combination”) involving Alussa, Pubco and FREYR A/S, a company organized under the laws of Norway (“FREYR”).
The Registration Statement was declared effective on June 14, 2021, and the definitive proxy statement and other relevant documents have
been mailed to shareholders of Alussa as of the close of business on April 30, 2021. Shareholders of Alussa and other interested persons
are advised to read the preliminary proxy statement, and amendments thereto, and the definitive proxy statement in connection with Alussa’s
solicitation of proxies for the special meeting to be held to approve the Business Combination because these documents contain important
information about Alussa, FREYR, Pubco and the Business Combination. Alussa shareholders and other interested persons will also be able
to obtain copies of the Registration Statement and the proxy statement/prospectus, without charge, once available, on the SEC’s
website at www.sec.gov or by directing a request to Alussa by contacting its Chief Executive Officer, Daniel Barcelo, c/o Alussa Energy
Acquisition Corp. PO Box 500, 71 Fort Street, Grand Cayman KY1-1106, Cayman Islands, at +1(345) 949 4900.
Participants in the Solicitation
Alussa, Pubco and FREYR and certain of their
respective directors, executive officers, other members of management and employees, under SEC rules, may be deemed to be participants
in the solicitation of proxies from the shareholders of Alussa in favor of the approval of the Business Combination. Shareholders of Alussa
and other interested persons may obtain more information regarding the names and interests in the proposed transaction of Alussa’s
directors and officers in Alussa’s filings with the SEC, including Alussa’s annual report on form 10-K for the year-ended
December 31, 2020, which was filed with the SEC on March 1, 2021 and amended on May 6, 2021, as modified or supplemented by any Form 3
or Form 4 filed with the SEC since the date of such filing. Additional information regarding the interests of such potential participants
is also included in the Registration Statement and other relevant documents filed with the SEC. These documents can be obtained free of
charge from the sources indicated above.
No Offer or Solicitation
This Current Report on Form 8-K and the exhibits
hereto do not constitute a solicitation of a proxy, consent or authorization with respect to any securities or in respect of the Business
Combination. This Current Report on Form 8-K shall also not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities,
nor shall there be any sale of securities in any states or jurisdictions in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior
to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. No offering of securities shall be made except by
means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or an exemption therefrom.
