  1. Proposal concerning a further authorisation of acquiring treasury shares.

The Public Limited Companies Act provides for public limited companies to own their own shares (treasury shares). The purpose of owning treasury shares is to enhance shareholders’ value. As per today the Company owns 5,391,166 A-shares and 2,322,482 B-shares, altogether 7,713,648 shares which represent 8.89 per cent of the total shares in the Company.

The Board proposes that the Annual General Meeting adopts the following resolution: “In pursuance of section 9-4 of the Public Limited Companies Act, the Board shall be authorised to acquire further shares limited upwards to a total of 8,676,894 treasury


shares for a total nominal value of up to NOK 21,692,235 corresponding to 10 per cent of the Company's share capital".

Both the Company and its subsidiaries may acquire shares in the Company. The Board is free to choose its own method in which to acquire and sell treasury shares. The Company shall pay no less than NOK 2.50 (the face value of the shares) and no more than NOK 250 per share acquired according to this authorisation. If, in consequence of a fund issue, share split or the like, the Company's share capital is changed, then the total nominal amount, the minimum and the maximum price per share shall be adjusted correspondingly. The authorisation is valid for 18 months from 4 May 2010 and expires 4 November 2011. The authorisation from the Annual General Meeting 5 May 2009 that expires 5 November 2010 is consequently and therefore cancelled.

  1. The Board of Directors' statement on salary and other benefits to the Management and the advisory vote of the General Meeting is included in the Company's Annual Report 2009, on page 37.

  2. Amendment to Article 4 of the Articles of Association with regard to future notices of General Meetings.

The Public Limited Companies Act has been amended such as to permit companies to only send the actual notice of General Meeting to the shareholders, with miscellaneous appendices and other documents for the General Meeting being made available on the Company's website. In order to utilise the arrangement, this must be authorised by the Articles of Association of the Company. The Board of Directors proposes, in order to ensure flexibility for the Company in this respect, that the following paragraph is added to Article 4 of the Articles of Association as a new final paragraph:

"It is not necessary to forward to the shareholders documents relating to matters to be deliberated by the General Meeting, hereunder documents required by statute to be included in, or appended to, the notice of the General Meeting, provided that such documents are available on the website of the Company. A shareholder may nevertheless request that documents relating to matters to be deliberated by the General Meeting are forwarded to him or her."

Shareholders wishing to attend the Annual General Meeting, in person or by proxy, are kindly asked to use the reply coupon below. The coupon must be received by the Company no later than 27 April 2010, cf. section 4 of the Articles of Association. The Company's address is Odfjell SE, P.O. Box 6101 Postterminalen, 5892 Bergen, Norway.
