2.         General

The Board wishes to emphasise that the Information, the Reports and the amended Reports were prepared in connection with the Applications and have not been subject to an audit review. All financial projections are preliminary and subject to change and the Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. As projections are inherently subject to substantial and numerous uncertainties and to a wide variety of significant business, economic and competitive risks, and the assumptions underlying the projections may be inaccurate in any material respect, the actual results achieved may vary significantly from the forecasts, and the variations may be material. 

The Information, the Reports and the amended Reports are not to be relied on for any purpose other than in connection with the Applications. In particular and without limitation, nothing contained in the Information, the Reports and the amended Reports should be relied on in connection with any transaction relating to any shares, or any assets of, or the making of any investment in, any member of the Group.

The Company will make further announcements in compliance with the listing requirements of the Oslo Børs when there are material developments in respect of the Restructuring.

This announcement is subject to disclosure in accordance with section 5-12 of the Norwegian Securities Trading Act.

By Order of the Board
