The Company has resolved that the Reverse Split shall be implemented as set out below:

- Date on which the corporate action was made public: 10 April 2017

- Reverse split ratio: 10:1 (10 existing shares give 1 new share)

- Last day including right: 18 May 2017

- Ex-date: 19 May 2017

- Record date: 22 May 2017

Shareholders who, as a consequence of the Reverse Split, would own a fraction of a share will have their shareholding rounded up to the nearest whole share, free of cost. The shares will be traded ex-consolidation from 19 May 2017.

As a consequence of the Reverse Split, the Conversion Price of the "USD 125,000,000 2.875% Secured Convertible Bond Issue 2011/2016" as amended (ISINs NO0010607435, NO0010757271 and NO0010757263) will be adjusted according to the Bond Agreement, clause 15.2, from USD 13.8694 to USD 138.694.
