Oslo, 25 September 2019, P/F Bakkafrost (the "Company") is contemplating a
private placement of up to 7,328,709 new shares (the "Offer Shares"),
corresponding to approximately 15% of the outstanding shares in the Company (the
"Private Placement").

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Private Placement to partly
finance its contemplated acquisition of 133,125,109 shares (68.6%) of the shares
in the Scottish Salmon Company plc ("SSC)" from Northern Link at a price of NOK
28.25 per share (the "Acquisition"), and a potential subsequent mandatory tender
offer for the remaining shares in SSC. Reference is made to the separate press
release from the Company with respect to the Acquisition, also announced today.

DNB Markets, a part of DNB Bank ASA, Goldman Sachs International and Nordea Bank
Abp, filial i Norge have been retained as joint bookrunners and managers (the
"Managers") for the Private Placement.

The Private Placement will be structured as a private placement directed towards
Norwegian and international investors, subject to and in compliance with
applicable exemptions from relevant registration, filing and prospectus
requirements. The minimum order in the Private Placement has been set to the NOK
equivalent of EUR 100,000. The Company may at its sole discretion allocate an
amount below EUR 100,000 to the extent permitted by applicable exemptions from
the prospectus requirements.

The subscription price will be determined through an accelerated bookbuilding
process.

The application period for the Private Placement will commence today, 25
September 2019, post market close and close on 26 September 2019 at 08:00 CET.
The Company, in consultation with the Managers, may at its discretion extend or
shorten the application period at any time and for any reason. If the
application period is shortened or extended, any other dates referred to herein
may be amended accordingly.

Regin Jacobsen, CEO of Bakkafrost, has pre-subscribed for NOK 50 million and
will be granted full allocation of his subscription, subject to the
extraordinary general meeting as further described below.

Allocation of the Offer Shares will be made by the Company's board of directors
at its sole discretion, following advice from the Managers.

The Board of Directors holds an authority to issue up to 4,800,000 new shares
and will use this authorization to issue new shares to settle the borrowing of
4,800,000 shares used as part of the settlement of the Private Placement. In
addition, the Company will sell 85,806 shares from its existing holding of
treasury shares. The Company will convene an extraordinary general meeting (the
"EGM") to propose that the Board of Directors is authorized to issue inter alia
up to 2,442,903 shares for the purpose of settling the remainder of the share
lending and 2,442,903 shares to be delivered to Northern Link as part of the
consideration for the acquisition of the shares in SSC (the "EGM Proposal"). The
settlement of the Private Placement will not be conditional upon or otherwise
affected by the outcome of the EGM. If the EGM does not approve the EGM Proposal
the borrowing of up to 2,442,903 shares will be settled in cash by way of
proceeds from the Private Placement.

The board of directors of the Company has considered alternative structures for
the raising of new equity. Following careful considerations, the board of
directors has decided to structure the capital raising as a private placement
since the efficiency of the structure will allow the Company to pursue the
Acquisition of the SSC shares and the potential subsequent mandatory offer. The
board of directors therefore considers a private placement to be in the best
interests of the Company and its shareholders. Accordingly, the pre-emption
rights of the existing shareholders will be disapplied.

The Offer Shares will be settled with existing and unencumbered shares in the
Company which are already listed on Oslo Børs, pursuant to (i) a share lending
agreement between DNB Markets (on behalf of the Managers), the Company and (ii)
the share lending agreement with Regin Jacobsen as described above, in order to
facilitate delivery of listed shares to investors on a standard T+2, delivery
versus payment basis. Delivery of the Offer Shares will take place on or about
30 September 2019.

The Company has agreed with the Managers not to undertake any further issue or
sale of shares or securities convertible into such shares for a period of 180
days following settlement of the Private Placement, subject to customary
exceptions, except for any subsequent offerings as further described herein.
Certain shareholders of the Company, Regin Jacobsen, Oddvør Jacobsen, Rógvi
Jacobsen and Annika Fredriksberg, have agreed to lock-up arrangements with
respect to their shares for a period of 180 days following settlement of the
Private Placement, subject to customary exceptions and except for the settlement
of the share lending arrangements with any such shareholders as described above.
Northern Link has also agreed to lock-up arrangements with respect to the shares
it will receive as a result of the directed share issue described above for a
period of 180 days following settlement of the Private Placement, subject to
customary exceptions.

The Company will announce the final number of Offer Shares placed and the final
subscription price in the Private Placement in a stock exchange announcement
expected to be published before opening of trading on Oslo Børs tomorrow, 26
September 2019. Completion of the Private Placement is subject to final approval
by the Company's board of directors.

Subject to completion of the Private Placement, the Board of Directors will
consider proposing to the Company's shareholders at the extraordinary general
meeting of the Company a subsequent offering of new shares to shareholders who
are not allocated shares in the Private Placement. Additional information will
be provided in due course if a decision is made to propose a subsequent
offering.

In case shareholders do not approve the issue of additional shares, the Company
will use [an additional bank facility] to settle the share loan in cash and
Northern Link will receive a cash consideration for an amount equivalent to the
5% share issuance they would have otherwise received, as further described in
the separate press release from the Company with respect to the Acquisition,
also announced today.

Securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration
with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission or an exemption from
registration under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities
Act"). The Company does not intend to register any part of the offering in the
United States or to conduct a public offering in the United States of the shares

Any Mandatory Tender Offer by the Company to SSC's shareholders may be

-5 under the Exchange Act, if available. Any of the purchases referred to in
this paragraph may occur either in the open market at prevailing prices or in
private transactions at negotiated prices. Information about such purchases will
be disclosed as and if required by applicable securities laws.

In any EEA Member State, this communication is only addressed to and directed at
qualified investors in that Member State within the meaning of the Prospectus
Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2017/1129) (the "Prospectus Regulation").

has it been approved for the purposes of Section 21 of the Financial Services
and Markets Act 2000 ("FSMA"), by a person authorised under FSMA and is directed
only at persons who (i) are outside the United Kingdom, (ii) are investment
professionals falling within Article 19(5) of the U.K. Financial Services and
Markets Act 2000 (Financial Promotion) Order 2005 (as amended) (the "Order") or
(iii) high net worth companies, and other persons to whom it may lawfully be
engaged with, falling within Article 49(2)(a) to (d) of the Order (all such
persons in (i), (ii) and (iii) above together being referred to as "relevant
persons"). Under no circumstances should persons who are not relevant persons

activity to which this document relates in the United Kingdom is available only
to, and will be engaged only with, relevant persons.

The information contained in this document does not purport to be comprehensive.
None of the Managers, any of their respective subsidiary undertakings or
affiliates, or their respective directors, officers, employees, advisers or
agents accepts any responsibility or liability whatsoever for (whether in
contract, tort or otherwise) or makes any representation or warranty, express or
implied, as to the truth, accuracy or completeness of the information in this
document (or whether any information has been omitted from the document) or any
other information relating to the Company, its subsidiaries, affiliates or
associated companies, whether written, oral or in a visual or electronic form,
and howsoever transmitted or made available or for any loss howsoever arising
from any use of this document or its contents or otherwise arising in connection
therewith. The Managers disclaim any responsibility for any acts or omissions of
the Company, any of the directors, or any other person in connection with the
Private Placement.

The Managers are acting for the Company in connection with the Private Placement
and no one else and will not be responsible to anyone other than the Company for

Solely for the purposes of the product governance requirements contained within:
(a) EU Directive 2014/65/EU on markets in financial instruments, as amended
("MiFID II"); (b) Articles 9 and 10 of Commission Delegated Directive (EU)
2017/593 supplementing MiFID II; and (c) local implementing measures (together,
the "MiFID II Product Governance Requirements"), and disclaiming all and any
liability, whether arising in tort, contract or otherwise, which any
"manufacturer" (for the purposes of the MiFID II Product Governance
Requirements) may otherwise have with respect thereto, the securities described
in this press release have been subject to a product approval process, which has
determined that such securities are: (i) compatible with an end target market of
retail investors and investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and
eligible counterparties, each as defined in MiFID II; and (ii) eligible for
distribution through all distribution channels as are permitted by MiFID II (the
"Target Market Assessment"). Notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment,
distributors should note that: the price of the securities may decline and
investors could lose all or part of their investment; the securities offer no
guaranteed income and no capital protection; and an investment in the securities
is compatible only with investors who do not need a guaranteed income or capital
protection, who (either alone or in conjunction with an appropriate financial or
other adviser) are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of such an
investment and who have sufficient resources to be able to bear any losses that
may result therefrom. The Target Market Assessment is without prejudice to the
requirements of any contractual, legal or regulatory selling restrictions in
relation to the Transaction. Furthermore, it is noted that, notwithstanding the
Target Market Assessment, the Managers will only approach investors who meet the
criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Target Market Assessment does not constitute:
(a) an assessment of suitability or appropriateness for the purposes of MiFID
II; or (b) a recommendation to any investor or group of investors to invest in,
or purchase, or take any other action whatsoever with respect to the securities.
Each distributor is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment
in respect of the securities and determining appropriate distribution channels.

"intends", "estimates", "aims", "plans", "predicts", "continues", "assumes",
"positioned" or "anticipates" and similar expressions (or their negative)
identify certain of these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking
statements are statements regarding the Company's intentions, beliefs or current
expectations concerning, among other things, the Company's results of
operations, financial condition, liquidity, prospects, growth, strategies and
the industry in which the Company operates. The forward-looking statements in
this document are based on numerous assumptions regarding the Company's present
and future business strategies and the environment in which the Company will
operate in the future. Forward-looking statements involve inherent known and
unknown risks, uncertainties and contingencies because they relate to events and
depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future and may cause
the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially
different from those expressed or implied by such forward looking statements.
Many of these risks and uncertainties relate to factors that are beyond the
Company's ability to control or estimate precisely, such as future market
conditions, currency fluctuations, the behaviour of other market participants,
the actions of regulators and other factors such as the Company's ability to
continue to obtain financing to meet its liquidity needs, changes in the
political, social and regulatory framework in which the Company operates or in
economic or technological trends or conditions. Past performance should not be
taken as an indication or guarantee of future results, and no redocument or
warranty, express or implied, is made regarding future performance. The Company
and each of the joint financial advisors expressly disclaim any obligation or
undertaking to release any updates or revisions to these forward-looking
statements to reflect any change in the Company's expectations with regard
thereto or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any
statement is based after the date of this document or to update or to keep
current any other information contained in this document. Accordingly, undue
reliance should not be placed on the forward-looking statements, which speak
only as of the date of this document.
