Forward-Looking Statements
Matters discussed in this press release may constitute forward-looking
statements. Forward-looking statements include statements concerning plans,
objectives, goals, strategies, future events or performance, and underlying
assumptions and other statements, which are other than statements of historical
facts. Words, such as, but not limited to "believe," "anticipate," "intends,"
"estimate," "forecast," "project," "plan," "potential," "may," "should,"
"expect," "pending" and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements regarding:
* The delivery to and operation of assets by Frontline;
* Frontline's future operating or financial results;
* Future, pending or recent acquisitions, business strategy, areas of possible
expansion, and expected capital spending or operating expenses; and
* Tanker market trends, including charter rates and factors affecting vessel
supply and demand.
The forward-looking statements in this press release are based upon various
assumptions, many of which are based, in turn, upon further assumptions,
including without limitation, examination of historical operating trends, data
contained in records and other data available from third parties. Although
Frontline believes that these assumptions were reasonable when made, because
these assumptions are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and
contingencies which are difficult or impossible to predict and are beyond the
control of Frontline, Frontline cannot assure you that they, or the combined
company, will achieve or accomplish these expectations, beliefs or projections.
In addition to these important factors, other important factors that could cause
actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking
statements, including the strength of world economies and currencies, general
market conditions, including fluctuations in charter rates and vessel values,
changes in demand for tanker shipping capacity, changes in the combined
company's operating expenses, including bunker prices, drydocking and insurance
costs, the market for the combined company's vessels, availability of financing
and refinancing, 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, vessels
breakdowns and instances of off-hires and other factors. Please see Frontline's
filings with the SEC and the Prospectus for a more complete discussion of these
and other risks and uncertainties. The information set forth herein speaks only
as of the date hereof, and Frontline disclaims any intention or obligation to
update any forward-looking statements as a result of developments occurring
after the date of this communication.
