Borregaard ASA: LignoTech Ibérica

Due to challenging market conditions for its lignin products the board of

LignoTech Ibérica, a company owned 60% by Borregaard and 40% by the Spanish

Sniace group, decided to give notice of termination of the agreement governing

the supply of raw material from Sniace on 25 October 2017. According to the

terms of the agreement the termination could take effect from 25 October 2019 at

the earliest, as informed in a stock exchange notice from Borregaard dated 25

October 2017.

The Sniace group has noticed the board of LignoTech Ibérica that it will

exercise its right to request an extension of the raw material supply agreement

to 31 December 2021. This request has been acknowledged by LignoTech Ibérica,

and the agreement will therefore be in force until the end of 2021. Thereafter

it will terminate with effect from 1 January 2022 unless the parties agree on a

continuation of the cooperation.
