    <div style="text-align: justify; line-height: 11.4pt; color: #000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-weight: bold;">You should read the filings CMB and Euronav make with the SEC carefully before making a decision concerning the U.S. Tender

    <div style="line-height: 11.4pt; margin-top: 18pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-weight: bold;">Forward-Looking Statements</div>
    <div style="line-height: 11.4pt;"><br style="line-height: 11.4pt;">
    </div>
    <div style="text-align: justify; line-height: 11.4pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;">Matters discussed in this communication may constitute forward-looking statements. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides safe harbour
      protections for forward-looking statements in order to encourage companies to provide prospective information about their business. Forward-looking statements include statements concerning plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events or
      performance, and underlying assumptions and other statements, which are other than statements of historical facts. Euronav desires to take advantage of the safe harbour provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and is
      including this cautionary statement in connection with this safe harbour legislation. The words "believe", "anticipate", "intends", "estimate", "forecast", "project", "plan", "potential", "may", "should", "expect", "pending" and similar expressions
      identify forward-looking statements.</div>
    <div style="line-height: 11.4pt;"><br style="line-height: 11.4pt;">
    </div>
    <div style="text-align: justify; line-height: 11.4pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;">The forward-looking statements in this communication are based upon various assumptions, many of which are based, in turn, upon further assumptions, including
      without limitation, our management's examination of historical operating trends, data contained in our records and other data available from third parties. Although we believe that these assumptions were reasonable when made, because these
      assumptions are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies which are difficult or impossible to predict and are beyond our control, we cannot assure you that we will achieve or accomplish these expectations, beliefs or
      projections.</div>
    <div style="line-height: 11.4pt;"><br style="line-height: 11.4pt;">
    </div>
    <div style="text-align: justify; line-height: 11.4pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;">In addition to these important factors, other important factors that, in our view, could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the
      forward-looking statements include the risk that the proposed transaction may not be completed, or if it is completed, that it will close in a timely manner, uncertainty surrounding how many of Euronav&#8217;s stockholders will tender their shares in the
      tender offer, the possibility of business disruptions due to transaction-related uncertainty and the response of business partners to the announcement, including customers, the risk that stockholder litigation in connection with the proposed
      transaction may result in significant costs of defense, indemnification and liability, the failure of counterparties to fully perform their contracts with us, the strength of world economies and currencies, general market conditions, including
      fluctuations in charter rates and vessel values, changes in demand for tanker vessel capacity, changes in our operating expenses, including bunker prices, dry-docking and insurance costs, the market for our vessels, availability of financing and
      refinancing, charter counterparty performance, ability to obtain financing and comply with covenants in such financing arrangements, changes in governmental rules and regulations or actions taken by regulatory authorities, potential liability from
      pending or future litigation, general domestic and international political conditions, potential disruption of shipping routes due to accidents or political events, vessels breakdowns and instances of off-hires and other factors. Please see our
      filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission for a more complete discussion of these and other risks and uncertainties.<font style="font-size: 8pt;">&#160;</font></div>
