In light of the situation related to covid-19 and current restrictions on
travels and meetings, the Board of Borregaard has today decided to postpone the
Annual General Meeting. The new date is Monday 15 June 2020. The financial
calendar will be updated accordingly.

As a consequence of the postponed Annual General Meeting the proposed ordinary
dividend of NOK 2.30 per share will be paid out at a later date than previously
announced (see stock exchange notice of 5 February 2020). A separate notice
containing payment date and other key information related to the cash dividend
will be sent out shortly.
