SDRL - Seadrill Limited Transitions to Quotation on OTC Capital Markets OTCQX
Hamilton, Bermuda, June 19, 2020 - Seadrill Limited ("Seadrill" or the
"Company") today announces that further to its press release dated June 1, 2020,
and as part of the delisting of its common shares (the "Common Shares") from
the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), the completion of its transition to the
United States' OTCQX Market.
The Company filed a Form 25 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
(the "SEC") on June 11, 2020 in order to delist its common shares from the NYSE,
which occurs ten days thereafter upon effectiveness of the Form 25. Accordingly,
the Company's last day of trading on the NYSE was on June 19, 2020, which was
the last trading day prior to the effectiveness of the Form 25.
Seadrill expects its Common Shares to be listed and tradable on the highly
regulated and highly liquid OTCQX Market as of June 22, 2020. The OTCQX Market
is a well-established U.S. financial market for U.S. and international companies
and will provide support to the Company's U.S. shareholders.
The Oslo Børs will now become Seadrill's primary listing, where it will retain
its ticker symbol 'SDRL'. A shareholder who wishes to transfer its shares
between the NYSE and the Oslo Stock Exchange should contact its broker for more
information in this respect.
