In response to recent queries from shareholders regarding whether the financial
restructuring that DOF ASA ("DOF" or the "Company", and together with its
subsidiaries the "DOF Group") is seeking to agree with the creditors of the DOF
Group will be required in light of recent market developments, the Company would
like to reiterate that a financial restructuring of the DOF Group's capital
structure will be required due to the significant debt level of the DOF Group.
As previously communicated by the Company, a robust long-term financing solution
is required for the DOF Group to maintain its status as a going concern. Such
solution is still expected to require conversion of substantial amounts of debt
to equity, which will significantly dilute the current holders of the equity.
The current proposal being discussed with the secured creditors and bondholders
of the DOF Group does not contemplate any unequal treatment of the shareholders
of the Company.
As previously informed, the dialogue with the lenders is complex, but
constructive. A refinancing solution is not yet in place, and no assurance can
at this stage be given that the Company will be able to find a solution with its
creditors. If such solution is agreed, the shareholders are urged to consider
the proposal when presented by the Company.

Invitation to presentation of Q4 2021 results

Reference is made to the resolutions adopted in the bondholders' meetings in DOF
Subsea AS' three bond loans (FRN DOF Subsea AS Senior Unsecured Bond Issue
2013/2020, DOF Subsea AS 9.50% Senior Unsecured Bond Issue 2017/2022 and FRN DOF
Subsea AS Senior Unsecured Bond Issue 2018/2023) on 30 September 2021, whereby
the bondholders on certain conditions approved to extend their waiver from, and
suspension of, all payment obligations under each of the bond loans until 31
October 2021, with a possibility to further extend the standstill arrangement
currently in place to 28 February 2022 with the approval of the ad-hoc committee
of bondholders.
Reference is further made to the announcements on 29 October 2021, 30 November
2021 and 31 January 2022 regarding the ad-hoc committee's approval of extension
of the standstill arrangement with the bondholders described above to 28
February 2022.
Discussions and negotiations on the restructuring of the DOF group (the "Group")
are progressing, and the Group, its secured lenders and the advisers to the
bondholders have since the bondholders' meetings in September 2021 continued
negotiations on an overall financial restructuring of the Group. Further
progress has been made in such negotiations, but there are still certain issues
that remain to be resolved to achieve an overall consensual restructuring of the
Group.
DOF Subsea AS has therefore requested Nordic Trustee AS to summon bondholders'
meetings in the three bond loans to consider the extension of the standstill
period initially until 31 March 2022 and with a possibility to extend the
standstill period on one or more occasions to 30 April 2022 with the approval of
an ad-hoc committee of bondholders. The proposal is further described in the
attached summons to the bondholders in the three bond loans. A request has also
been made to the Group's secured lenders to extend the suspension of payments of
principal and interest that have been granted by a majority of its secured
lenders.
