Let (S, +) be a semigroup and (H, +) be a group (neither necessarily commutative). Suppose that J ⊂ 2s is a proper ideal in S such that

and Ω(J) = {M ⊂ S2 : there exists U(M)∈ J with M [x] ∈ J for x ∈ S/U(M)}, where M[x] = {y ∈ S : (y, x) ∈ M}. We show that if f : S → H is a function satisfying

then there exists exactly one additive function F : S → H with F(x) = f(x) J-almost everywhere in S.

We also prove some results concerning regularity of the function F.
