        <div style="text-align: justify; margin-bottom: 8pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">Matters discussed in this announcement may constitute forward-looking statements. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides
          safe harbor protections for forward-looking statements, which 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.</div>
        <div style="text-align: justify; margin-bottom: 8pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">Frontline and its subsidiaries, desire 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. This announcement and any other written or oral statements made by Frontline or its behalf may include forward-looking statements, which reflect its
          current views with respect to future events and financial performance and are not intended to give any assurance as to future results. When used in this document, the words &#8220;believe,&#8221; &#8220;anticipate,&#8221; &#8220;intend,&#8221; &#8220;estimate,&#8221; &#8220;forecast,&#8221; &#8220;project,&#8221;

        <div style="text-align: justify; margin-bottom: 8pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">The forward-looking statements in this announcement are based upon various assumptions, including without limitation, management&#8217;s examination
          of historical operating trends, data contained in our records and data available from third parties. Although Frontline believes 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 Frontline&#8217;s control, it cannot assure you that Frontline will achieve or accomplish these expectations, beliefs or projections. Frontline undertakes no
          obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. In addition to these important factors and matters discussed elsewhere herein, important factors that, in Frontline&#8217;s view,
          could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements include important factors described from time to time in the reports and other documents, including filings with the U.S. Securities and
          Exchange Commission.</div>
        <div style="text-align: justify; margin-bottom: 8pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">NO OFFER OR SOLICITATION</div>
        <div style="text-align: justify; margin-bottom: 8pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">This announcement shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, sell, or solicit any securities or any proxy
          vote or approval, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. No offering of
          securities shall be made except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended.</div>
