our LNG carriers are participating in the LNG carrier pool, referred to as the Cool Pool. In addition, our affiliate Golar Power has one newbuilding commitment for the construction of a FSRU, which is scheduled for delivery in the fourth quarter of

midstream asset provider, we are looking to invest in small scale LNG projects and have completed a Front End Engineering and Design, or FEED, study for the conversion of three of our oldest carriers into small to mid-scale FLNGs.&nbsp;The FEED
study supported our view that conversion of an old LNG carrier into a FLNG is viable and cost-effective.&nbsp;In relation to this, we have entered into definitive contracts with Keppel Shipyard Limited, or Keppel, and Black &amp; Veatch Corporation,
or Black &amp; Veatch, for the conversion of three LNG carriers, the <I>Hilli</I>, the <I>Gimi</I> and the <I>Gandria, </I>to FLNGs. These developments are complementary to our existing core business, namely LNG shipping and provision of FSRUs, and
so we remain firmly committed to growing our shipping and FSRU fleet by way of our newbuild assets. In addition, our aim is to find strong strategic partners that have an interest in utilizing one or more of our FLNGs. </FONT></P>

to Golar Partners in May 2016, by virtue of the put option contained within the related sale agreements, we will continue to consolidate the entities that own and operate the <I>Golar Tundra</I> until her charter with WAGL commences. The <I>Golar
Tundra</I> arrived in Ghana at the end of May 2016 and tendered its notice of readiness, or NOR, in mid-June 2016, with payments beginning to accrue under the contract 30 days thereafter. However, as of the current date WAGL has not accepted the
<I>Golar Tundra</I> from Golar Partners due to delays in the development of the related LNG terminal on the terminal side. In the event delays continue for 120 days after NOR, which is the case as of the date of this prospectus supplement, then the
FSRU is deemed accepted by WAGL. In the event WAGL contest their obligations under the charter, the Company has sought and received an opinion which supports its legal position in exercising its rights under the contract. In October 2016, in order
to protect our legal position, we commenced arbitration proceedings against WAGL. We have, however, been informed by WAGL that they have recently received Parliamentary approval for its Gas Sales Agreement with the Government of Ghana, the lack of

Old IDRs, for the issuance of (i) a new class of incentive distributions rights, or New IDRs, an aggregate of 2,994,364 common units and 61,109 general partner units on the closing date of the exchange, which occurred on October 19, 2016, and; (ii)
an aggregate of up to 748,592 additional common units and up to 15,278 general partner units, or the Earn-Out Units, that may be issued subject to certain conditions. The Earn-Out Units represent an aggregate of 20% of the total units to be issued
in connection with the transaction. The number of Earn-Out Units that will be issued is dependent on the distributions made by Golar Partners for the quarters ending December 31, 2016 through to September 30, 2018. The New IDRs provide for
distribution &#147;splits&#148; between the IDR holders and the holders of common units equal to those applicable to the Old IDRs, which have been cancelled. However, the New IDRs provide for higher target distribution levels before distributions
are payable with respect to the New IDRs, including an increase of the minimum quarterly distributions from $0.3850 to $0.5775 per common unit, effective with respect to the distribution for the quarter ended December 31, 2016. As a result of the
foregoing, Golar will have 22,934,678 units, including common and general partners units, assuming all of&nbsp;the 763,870 Earn-Out Units are received. </FONT></P>

each category of shipping income for which exemption is being claimed, we can establish that individual residents of qualified foreign countries, or Qualified Shareholders, own sufficient common shares to preclude non-Qualified Shareholders from
owning 50% or more of the total value of our common shares for more than half the number of days during the taxable year, or the 5% Override Exception. </FONT></P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">There is no treaty in force between the U.S. and Bermuda providing for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments in civil and
commercial matters. As a result, whether a U.S. judgment would be enforceable in Bermuda against us or our directors and officers depends on whether the U.S. court that entered the judgment is recognized by the Bermuda court as having jurisdiction
over us or our directors and officers, as determined by reference to Bermuda conflict of law rules. A judgment debt from a U.S. court that is final and for a sum certain based on U.S. federal securities laws will not be enforceable in Bermuda unless
the judgment debtor had submitted to the jurisdiction of the U.S. court, and the issue of submission and jurisdiction is a matter of Bermuda (not U.S.) law. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In addition, and irrespective of jurisdictional issues, the Bermuda courts will not enforce a U.S. federal securities law that is either penal
or contrary to the public policy of Bermuda. An action brought pursuant to a public or penal law, the purpose of which is the enforcement of a sanction, power or right at the instance of the state in its sovereign capacity, may not be entertained by
a Bermuda court to the extent it is contrary to Bermuda public policy. Certain remedies available under the laws of U.S. jurisdictions, including certain remedies under U.S. federal securities laws, may not be available under Bermuda law or
enforceable in a Bermuda court, to the extent they are contrary to Bermuda public policy. Further, no claim may be brought in Bermuda against us or our directors and officers in the first instance for violations of U.S. federal securities laws
because these laws have no extraterritorial jurisdiction under Bermuda law and do not have force of law in Bermuda. A Bermuda court may, however, impose civil liability on us or our directors and officers if the facts alleged in a complaint
constitute or give rise to a cause of action under Bermuda law. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our shareholders have no pre-emptive, subscription, redemption, conversion or sinking fund rights. Shareholders are entitled to one vote for
each share held of record on all matters submitted to a vote of our shareholders. Shareholders have no cumulative voting rights. Shareholders are entitled to dividends if and when they are declared by our Board of Directors, subject to any preferred
dividend right of holders of any preferred shares. Directors to be elected by shareholders require a simple majority of votes cast at a meeting at which a quorum is present. For all other matters, unless a different majority is required by law or
our Bye-laws, resolutions to be approved by shareholders require approval by a simple majority of votes cast at a meeting at which a quorum is present. Upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, shareholders will be entitled under Bermuda law
to receive, ratably, our net assets available after the payment of all our debts and liabilities and any preference amount owed to any preference shareholders. The rights of shareholders, including the right to elect directors, are subject to the
rights of any series of preferred shares we may issue in the future. Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph, the material terms of any series of preferred shares that we may offer through a prospectus supplement will be described in that prospectus
supplement.&nbsp;See &#147;Preferred Shares.&#148; </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Under our Bye-laws, annual meetings of shareholders will be held at a time and place

10% of our paid-up share capital carrying the right to vote at general meetings. Under our Bye-laws, seven days&#146; notice of an annual meeting or any special meeting must be given to each shareholder entitled to vote at that meeting. Under
Bermuda law, accidental failure to give notice will not invalidate proceedings at a meeting. Our Board of Directors may set a record date at any time before or after any date on which such notice is dispatched. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Special rights attaching to any class of our shares may be altered or abrogated with the consent in writing of not less than 75% of the issued

dishonesty proved against them) from personal liability a director, alternate director, officer, member of a committee authorized under its Bye-laws, resident representative or their respective heirs, executors or administrators to the company from
any loss arising or liability attaching to him by virtue of any rule of law in respect of any negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust of which the officer or person may be guilty in relation to the Company or any subsidiary thereof.
Bermuda law also grants companies the power generally to indemnify directors, alternate directors and officers of the Company and any members authorized under its Bye-laws, resident representatives or their respective heirs, executors or
administrators if any such person was or is a party or threatened to be made a party to a threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director, alternate director or officer of the
Company or member of a committee authorized under its Bye-laws, resident representative or their respective heirs, executors or administrators or was serving in a similar capacity for another entity at the company&#146;s request. </P>

resident representative, or his heirs, executors or administrators, which we refer to collectively as an indemnitee, is liable for the acts, receipts, neglects or defaults of any other such person or any person involved in our formation, or for any
loss or expense incurred by us through the insufficiency or deficiency of title to any property acquired by us, or for the insufficiency or deficiency of any security in or upon which any of our monies shall be invested, or for any loss or damage
arising from the bankruptcy, insolvency or tortuous act of any person with whom any monies, securities or effects shall be deposited, or for any loss occasioned by any error of judgment, omission, default or oversight on his part, or for any other
loss, damage or misfortune whatever which shall happen in relation to the execution of his duties, or supposed duties, to us or otherwise in relation thereto. Each indemnitee will be indemnified and held harmless out of our funds to the fullest
extent permitted by Bermuda law against all liabilities, loss, damage or expense (including but not limited to liabilities under contract, tort and statute or any applicable foreign law or regulation and all reasonable legal and other costs and
expenses properly payable) incurred or suffered by him as such director, alternate director, officer, committee member or resident representative in his reasonable belief that he has been so appointed or elected notwithstanding any defect in such
appointment or election. In addition, each indemnitee shall be indemnified against all liabilities incurred in defending any proceedings, whether civil or criminal, in which judgment is given in such indemnitee&#146;s favor, or in which he is
acquitted. We are authorized to purchase insurance to cover any liability an indemnitee may incur under the indemnification provisions of our Bye-laws. </P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">DTC is a limited purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law, a &#147;banking
organization&#148; within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a &#147;clearing corporation&#148; within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, and a &#147;clearing agency&#148; registered
pursuant to the provisions of Section&nbsp;17A of the Exchange Act. DTC holds securities that its participating institutions deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the settlement among participating institutions of securities transactions, such as
transfers and pledges, in deposited securities through electronic computerized book-entry changes in participating institutions&#146; accounts, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of securities certificates. Direct participating
institutions include securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and other organizations. DTC is owned by a number of its direct participating institutions and by the The New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock
Exchange, Inc. and FINRA. Access to the DTC system is also available to others, such as securities brokers and dealers and banks and trust companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a direct participating institution,
either directly or indirectly. The rules applicable to DTC and its participating institutions are on file with the Commission. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">To
facilitate subsequent transfers, the debt securities may be registered in the name of DTC&#146;s nominee, Cede&nbsp;&amp; Co. The deposit of the debt securities with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede&nbsp;&amp; Co. will effect no change
in beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual beneficial owners of the debt securities. DTC&#146;s records reflect only the identity of the direct participating institutions to whose accounts debt securities are credited, which may or
may not be the beneficial owners. The participating institutions remain responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Delivery of notices and other communications by DTC to direct participating institutions, by direct participating institutions to indirect
participating institutions, and by direct participating institutions and indirect participating institutions to beneficial owners of debt securities are governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may
be in effect. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Neither DTC nor Cede&nbsp;&amp; Co. consents or votes with respect to the debt securities. Under its usual procedures, DTC
mails a proxy to the issuer as soon as possible after the record date. The proxy assigns Cede&nbsp;&amp; Co.&#146;s consenting or voting rights to those direct participating institution to whose accounts the debt securities are credited on the
record date. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If applicable, redemption notices shall be sent to Cede&nbsp;&amp; Co. If less than all of the debt securities of a series
represented by global securities are being redeemed, DTC&#146;s practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each direct participating institution in that issue to be redeemed. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">To the extent that any debt securities provide for repayment or repurchase at the option of the holders thereof, a beneficial owner shall give
notice of any option to elect to have its interest in the global security repaid by us, through its participating institution, to the applicable trustee, and shall effect delivery of the interest in a global security by causing the direct
participating institution to transfer the direct participating institution&#146;s interest in the global security or securities representing the interest, on DTC&#146;s records, to the applicable trustee. The requirement for physical delivery of
debt securities in connection with a demand for repayment or repurchase will be deemed satisfied when the ownership rights in the global security or securities representing the debt securities are transferred by direct participating institutions on
DTC&#146;s records. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">DTC may discontinue providing its services as securities depository for the debt securities at any time. Under such
