Addition of trading name - NORDEN Tanker Pool A/S (article 1.2)

Reduction of the share capital (article 4.1)
The Company's share capital will be reduced by nominally DKK 2,000,000 through cancellation of 2,000,000 treasury shares. The share capital reduction is made at par value.
The Company's total purchase price for the treasury shares proposed to be cancelled has been calculated using the average price method and constitutes DKK 716,899,227, corresponding to an average price of DKK 385.45 per share of nominally DKK 1 each. The total amount of the capital reduction of DKK 716,899,227 has been paid to the shareholders.
The Company's creditors are invited to notify claims as stipulated in section 192 of the Danish Companies Act. The share capital reduction will be finally completed following expiry of the date applicable for notification of claims, provided that the Board of Directors continue to deem the share capital reduction prudent.
