13. APPROVAL OF SALE OF SHARES IN SIGMA DRILLING AS TO SKEIE TECHNOLOGY AS

TTS Group ASA holds 500.000 shares in Sigma Drilling AS, equivalent to 11,49% of the total outstanding shares of the company. Sigma Drilling's only significant asset is a 58.11% shareholding in Sigma Drilling Ltd.(Cyprus). The operations of Sigma Drilling AS and Sigma Drilling Ltd. have been closed, and the book value of the shares in Sigma Drilling AS were written down to NOK 1 in the TTS Group financial statements in 2014.

In the period from 2014, Skeie Technology AS has increased its shareholding in Sigma Drilling, and currently holds the remaining 88.51% of the shares. Skeie Technology AS has presented an offer to TTS Group to buy the 500 000 shares from TTS Group at a price of USD 0,5135 per share, in total USD 256 750. The sales price is equivalent to the net asset value of Sigma Drilling Ltd., excluding cost to wind up the company. The price is further the same as the price paid by Skeie Technology to another shareholder in 2016.

The buyer is a shareholder of TTS Group ASA, and total sales price is equivalent to approximately MNOK 2.2, which is more than 1/20 of the registered share capital of TTS Group ASA. Due to this, the sale of the shares is put to the General Meeting for approval.

The sale of the shares will generate a positive cash flow in June 2017 of approximately MNOK 2.2, whereas the alternative to keep the shares would give a similar positive cash flow, but at a later time.

The Board of Directors proposes that the General meeting adopt a resolution to approve the sale of the shares in Sigma Drilling AS to Skeie Technology AS.

Independent report in accordance with the Public Companies Act, Section 3-8 was enclosed in the notice of General Annual Meeting.
