Golar LNG Ltd.

Notice of Dividend Amount • Sep 13, 2010

Special dividend of Golar LNG Energy Limited shares to Golar LNG common shareholders

With reference to the Second Quarter 2010 Results announcement, the Board of

Directors of Golar LNG Limited (the "Company") is pleased to advise that it has

declared a special dividend (the "Special Dividend") to the Company's common

shareholders, consisting of one (1) common share of the Company's subsidiary,

Golar LNG Energy Limited ("Golar Energy") for every seven (7) common shares of

the Company held by such common shareholder.  The Special Dividend is payable on

or about October 28, 2010 (the "Distribution Date"), to the Company's common

shareholders of record as of September 27, 2010.  The Special Dividend consists

of up to 10 million[1] Golar Energy common shares in the aggregate, representing

approximately 4% of the total issued and outstanding common shares of Golar

Energy, which is listed on the Oslo Axess stock exchange.

Golar Energy maintains its common share register through the Norwegian VPS (the

Norwegian paperless securities depository system) and all of Golar Energy's

common shareholders are required to have VPS accounts. In connection with the

Special Dividend (1) each common shareholder of the Company that is a non-U.S.

person and (2) each of the Company's U.S. common shareholders that is a

Qualified Institutional Buyer ("QIB"), as defined in Rule 144A of the United

States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and in either case holds a minimum of

1,400 common shares of the Company, will receive one (1) common share of Golar

Energy for every seven (7) common shares of the Company owned by that non-U.S.

person or QIB, rounded down to the nearest whole common share.  Only non-U.S.

persons and U.S. QIBs (together, "Common Share Recipients") that return

certifications as to their status ("Common Shareholder Certifications") to the

Company's transfer agent, Mellon Investor Services, and provide the Company with

a VPS account number will be eligible to receive the Golar Energy common shares.

U.S. common shareholders who are not QIBs and common shareholders that own fewer

than 1,400 common shares of the Company, whether or not they are QIBs, and

shareholders that do not return satisfactory Common Shareholder Certifications

will not be entitled to receive Golar Energy common shares.  Instead of Golar

Energy common shares, such shareholders (together, the "Cash Recipients"), will

receive a cash distribution based on the Cash Price described below.

On the Distribution Date, the Common Share Recipients will receive their

respective shares of Golar Energy.  The cash distribution to the Cash Recipients

is payable on or about six (6) days following the Distribution Date and is based

on the volume weighted average price per common share of Golar Energy during the

five (5) trading days following the Distribution Date (the "Cash Price").  Any

fractional common shares resulting from the Special Dividend will be payable in

cash based on the Cash Price.

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 the Company management's examination of historical

operating trends. Although the Company 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, the Company cannot give assurance that it will achieve

or accomplish these expectations, beliefs or intentions.

Included among the factors that, in the Company's view, could cause actual

results to differ materially from the forward looking  statements contained in

this press release are the following:

inability of the Company to obtain financing for the new building  vessels at

all or on favourable terms; changes in demand; a  material decline or prolonged

weakness in rates for LNG carriers;  political events affecting production in

areas in which natural gas  is produced and demand for natural gas in areas to

which our  vessels deliver; changes in demand for natural gas generally or in

particular regions; changes in the financial stability of our major  customers;

adoption of new rules and regulations applicable to LNG  carriers and FSRU's;

actions taken by regulatory authorities that  may prohibit the access of LNG

carriers or FSRU's to various ports;  our inability to achieve successful

utilisation of our expanded  fleet and inability to expand beyond the carriage

of LNG; increases  in costs including: crew wages, insurance, provisions,

repairs and  maintenance; changes in general domestic and international

political conditions; the current turmoil in the global financial  markets and

deterioration thereof; changes in applicable  maintenance or regulatory

standards that could affect our  anticipated dry-docking or maintenance and

repair costs; our  ability to timely complete our FSRU conversions; failure of

shipyards to comply with delivery schedules on a timely basis and  other factors

listed from time to time in registration statements  and reports that we have

filed with or furnished to the Securities  and Exchange Commission, including

our Registration Statement on  Form 20-F and subsequent announcements and
