This notice and attached documents are also accessible on the company's homepage, www.agasti.no/en.

Items on the agenda:

    1. Opening of the extraordinary general meeting by solicitor Atle Degré
    1. Registration of attending shareholders
    1. Election of person to chair the meeting The Board proposes solicitor Atle Degré to chair the meeting.
    1. Approval of notice and agenda
    1. Election of a person to co-sign the minutes together with the chairman of the meeting A person to co-sign the minutes with the chairman of the meeting will be proposed at the general meeting.
    1. Election of the Board of Directors
  • The Board of Agasti Holding ASA currently comprises the following members:
  • John Høsteland, Chairman
  • Jon E. Bjørstad, Deputy Chairman
  • Beatriz Malo de Molina, Member
  • Ellen Hanetho, Member
  • Erling Meinich-Bache, Member
  • Kristin Louise Abrahamsen Wilhelmsen, Member
  • Trond Vernegg, Member

The reason for Perestroika AS' request for an extraordinary general meeting is that they want their new CFO Paal Victor Minne to join the Board of Directors to replace Jon E. Bjørstad. Bjørstad was elected at the Annual General Meeting on 18 June 2014 for a period of two years upon Perestroika AS' suggestion. This will be the only change in the composition. The request has been submitted to the nomination committee. The nomination committee has no objections to the amendment.

Paal Victor Minne, born in 1965, graduated from Norwegian School of Economics as Master in Business and Economics, specialising in financial management and financing. He also has attended various courses in corporate finance at the Amsterdam Institute of Finance. Minne has been newly appointed CFO at Perestroika AS and has until now led Nordea's shipping activities in Bergen. He has previously been responsible for the bank's shipping business in Asia, and has previously held position as Vice President of DVB Bank AG with responsibility for shipping in the Oslo region, including a period in Singapore for the implementation of major financing projects. He has also worked as Assistant General Manager at DNB New York with responsibility for ship owners and offshore clients.

Minne holds no shares, options or warrants, but has a business relationship with Perestroika AS, which is Agasti Holding ASA's largest shareholder.

Proposed resolution:

"Paal Victor Minne is elected as a member of the Board of Directors for a single term until the Annual General Meeting in 2016, replacing Jon E. Bjørstad who simultaneously resigns from the Board."

7. Election of the nomination committee

The Board also proposes the election of a member of the nomination committee.

Agasti Holding ASA currently has the following nomination committee:

  • Ove Steinar Larsen, Chairman
  • Truls Foss, Member

The nomination committee's third member, Eirik Iversen resigned on 9 October 2014. The election committee's proposal for new member of the nomination committee is not available at the time for the printing of this notice, but will be made available on the company's website www.agasti.no/en and on the website of Oslo Stock Exchange www.oslobors.no as soon as it is available, and in any case prior to the general meeting.

No further business is proposed for consideration.
