Singapore, 19 August 2024
Reference is made to the stock exchange announcement made by Hafnia Limited
("Hafnia" or the "Company", OSE ticker code: "HAFNI", NYSE ticker code "HAFN")
on 6 August 2024 regarding the court sanctioned meeting of shareholders of the
Company (the "Scheme Meeting") for eligible shareholders to vote on the scheme
of arrangement (the "Scheme") between the Company and its shareholders pursuant
to Section 99 of the Bermuda Companies Act 1981, as amended, in order to effect
a discontinuance of the Company from Bermuda and continuance to Singapore and
adopt the constitution of the Company which will take effect upon continuance in
Singapore (the "Singapore Constitution" and the "Redomiciliation" respectively).
Notice is hereby given that the Scheme Meeting will be held on Wednesday, 11
September 2024 at 5:00 pm (Bermuda time) for the eligible shareholders to vote
on the Scheme.
The Scheme Meeting will be held as a physical meeting at Washington Mall Phase
2, 4th Floor, Suite 400, 22 Church Street, HM 1189, Hamilton, Bermuda.
Shareholders of record at the close of trading on 6 August 2024 are entitled to
receive notice and to vote at the Scheme Meeting in respect of the number of
shares registered in their name at the record date. Please see attached the
notice of the Scheme Meeting and an explanatory statement (including the Scheme
and the proposed Singapore Constitution) which have been distributed to the
shareholders today.
If the Scheme is approved at the Scheme Meeting, a subsequent hearing will be
held by the Supreme Court of Bermuda to sanction the Scheme. If the Scheme is
sanctioned by the court, then the Scheme will become binding on the Company and
its shareholders once a copy of the court order is filed with the Registrar of
Companies in Bermuda.
Subject to the conditions to the Scheme being satisfied or waived pursuant to
the terms of the Scheme, the Company shall effect the Redomiciliation, and the
Company's shareholders will on the effective date of the Redomiciliation
continue to hold one ordinary share of the Company for each common share held
prior to the Redomiciliation. Moreover, the principal attributes of the share
capital of the Company will be the same before and after the Redomiciliation,
and the Redomiciliation will not affect the voting rights of the Company's
shares. However, as the Company after the Redomiciliation will be a Singapore
company, it will be subject to Singapore corporate law and its current bye-laws
and memorandum of association will be replaced with the Singapore Constitution.
The Company's name, Hafnia Limited, and tickers on the Oslo Stock Exchange and
the New York Stock Exchange will remain the same after the Redomiciliation. The
Company will have a new company registration number, a new ISIN code, and a new
CUSIP number following the Redomiciliation, but it will retain the same LEI
code. The Company's registered office will be the current office address in
Singapore, 10 Pasir Panjang Road, #18-01, Mapletree Business City, Singapore
117438.
