Frontline Plc — Capital/Financing Update 2010

Jul 1, 2010

FRO - Purchase of Suezmax Newbuildings and Fleet Update

Frontline Ltd. (the "Company" or "Frontline") has entered into a contract with

Jiangsu Rongsheng Heavy Industries Co., Ltd. for the delivery of two 156,900 dwt

Suezmax newbuildings. The vessels are expected to be delivered in February and

May 2013. Frontline has also secured options for two similar Suezmax

newbuildings. The contract price for the newbuildings is 15-20 percent lower

than indicated price levels for 2010 delivered tonnage. These contracts help to

renew the fleet and provide an opportunistic investment approach with great

flexibility.

In June 2010, Frontline received notices from the owners of the two chartered-in

2001-built Suezmax tankers, Front Melody and Front Symphony, and the two

chartered-in 2000-built VLCCs, Front Tina and Front Commodore, to exercise their

option to extend the charter period for two years to the end of 2013 from the

expiry of the mandatory lease period at the end of 2011. The Company believes

the charter-in rates are attractive compared to current time charter rates. The

owners have the option to further extend the charter periods until the end 2015.

With reference to the press release from the Company dated April 19, 2010, we

are pleased to announce that we have successfully taken delivery of the two

2009-built VLCCs, Front Eminence and Front Endurance, in June 2010. In addition,

the third VLCC newbuilding from Shanghai Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding Co., Ltd.,

Front Cecilie, was delivered according to schedule on June 10, 2010.

Forward Looking Statements

This press release contains forward looking statements. These statements are

based upon various assumptions, many of which are based, in turn, upon further

assumptions, including Frontline management's examination of historical

operating trends. Although Frontline believes that these assumptions were

reasonable when made, because assumptions are inherently subject to significant

uncertainties and contingencies which are difficult or impossible to predict and

are beyond its control, Frontline cannot give assurance that it will achieve or

accomplish these expectations, beliefs or intentions.

Important factors that, in the Company's view, could cause actual results to

differ materially from those discussed in this press release include the

strength of world economies and currencies, general market conditions including

fluctuations in charter hire rates and vessel values, changes in demand in the

tanker market as a result of changes in OPEC's petroleum production levels and

world wide oil consumption and storage, changes in the Company's operating

expenses including bunker prices, dry-docking and insurance costs, changes in

governmental rules and regulations or actions taken by regulatory authorities,

potential liability from pending or future litigation, general domestic and

international political conditions, potential disruption of shipping routes due

to accidents or political events, and other important factors described from

time to time in the reports filed by the Company with the United States

Securities and Exchange Commission.
