I guess that Frans offered the draw because he was so nice not wanting to win
the game on time. In my opionion white was lost but not dead lost as black had
only very little time left. I think you can perfectly argue that black got a
better position because he has spent more time on the moves leading to that
position.

Both player knew before that the game will be lost on time when your time is
over.
