Dampskibsselskabet NORDEN A/S – Weekly report on share buy-back

On 13 November 2013, NORDEN initiated the fourth phase of a share buy-back programme in accordance with EU Commission Regulation no. 2273/2003 (the Safe Harbor method), which ensures that the Company is protected against violation of insider legislation during the share buy-back.

Under the share buy-back programme, NORDEN will purchase treasury shares for up to a total of USD 30 million (approximately DKK 170 million). The first phase of the share buy-back programme ran from 8 April 2013 to 6 May 2013 and had a value of DKK 20 million. The second phase of the share buy-back programme ran from 15 May 2013 to 13 August 2013 and had a value of DKK 50 million. The third phase of the share buy-back programme ran from 14 August 2013 to 12 November 2013 and had a value of DKK 50 million. The fourth phase of the share buy-back programme ran from 13 November 2013 to 4 March 2014 and had a value of DKK 50 million. This brings the value of the total share buy-back up to a total of USD 30 million, thus concluding the total share buy-back programme.
