Singapore - 26 May 2021.
BW Group Limited (the "Seller") has retained Arctic Securities AS and Pareto
Securities AS (the "Managers") to explore a potential block sale of existing
shares (the "Offering") in BW LPG Limited (the "Company").
The Seller is contemplating selling up to 7,000,000 shares in the Company (equal
to approx. 4.93% of the Company's shares outstanding) through an accelerated
bookbuilding process. The Seller reserves the right, at its own discretion, to
sell fewer shares or no shares at all.
The Offering will commence today (26 May 2021) at 16:30 CEST and will close no
later than 27 May 2021 at 08:00 CEST. Please note that the Offering may be
closed on short notice at the full discretion of the Seller and/or the Managers.
The Offering is expected to be priced and allocated before the opening of the
Oslo Stock Exchange on 27 May 2021 (T). The settlement in the Offering will be
conducted on a normal delivery-versus-payment basis (DVP T+2).
The Seller currently holds 62,607,126 shares in the Company (equal to approx.
44.11% of the Company's shares outstanding). The Seller will enter into a 90-day
customary lock-up with the Managers following the completion of the Offering for
any of the shares the Seller currently holds in the Company which are not sold
as part of the Offering.
The Seller has increased its shareholding in the Company over the past 15
months. The purpose of the Offering is to return free float to the market and
facilitate further liquidity in the Company's share. The Seller will remain a
large and long-term shareholder in the Company post Offering and is very
positive about the LPG market fundamentals.
The minimum order and allocation in the Offering have been set to the NOK
equivalent of EUR 100,000. The Managers may, however, offer and allocate an
amount below the NOK equivalent of EUR 100,000 in the Offering to the extent
exemptions from prospectus requirements, in accordance with Regulation (EU)
2017/1129, are available.
The Seller is represented in the Company's Board of Directors, by Mr. Andreas
Sohmen-Pao, and is thus defined as a primary insider subject to disclosure
duties under the Norwegian Securities Trading Act Section 4-2.
