regarding the initiation of a share buyback program (the "Buyback") of up to
1,600,000 shares for a total NOK consideration equivalent to $5 million.
The Company announces that it will require additional time to complete the

Buyback will now remain in effect until the earlier of: (i) the acquisition of
the maximum number of shares as set above; (ii) the maximum total consideration

Company's shareholders. The shares acquired will be in whole or in part held in
treasury or cancelled at the discretion of the Company's Board. The Buyback will
otherwise be structured to comply with the regulation regarding buy-back
programmes and stabilisation measures (pursuant to the Market Abuse Regulation
