THE OFFER COMMENCES ON 19 JUNE 2020 AND WILL EXPIRE AT 17:00 HOURS CEST ON 26 JUNE 2020 (THE "EXPIRATION DEADLINE"), UNLESS EXTED, WITHDRAWN, RE-OPENED OR TERMINATED AT THE SOLE AND ABSOLUTE DISCRETION OF THE ISSUER. TER INSTRUCTIONS, ONCE SUBMITTED, MAY, IN PRINCIPLE, NOT BE WITHDRAWN EXCEPT IN THE LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES OUTLINED IN THE TER OFFER MEMORANDUM.
Custodians, Direct Participants and Clearing Systems will have deadlines for receiving instructions prior to the Expiration Deadline and holders should contact the intermediary through which they hold their Notes as soon as possible to ensure proper and timely delivery of instructions.
Purpose of the Offer
On 14th June 2019, the Financial Supervisory Authority of Norway granted approval for the Issuer to treat call in supplementary capital as Ancillary Tier 2 own funds (calculated as 2.5 per cent of the Issuer's total premium reserve at any given time), with approval for this method granted until 31st December 2023. As a result, the Issuer has non-eligible Tier 2 own funds.
The purpose of the Offer is therefore to optimise the capital structure of the Issuer by reducing non-eligible Tier 2 own funds, and to utilise available liquidity by reducing outstanding indebtedness and interest costs.
Purchase Price
Subject to the Minimum Denomination in respect of the Notes, the price payable per EUR1,000 in principal amount of the Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase (the "Purchase Price") will be determined as provided in the Tender Offer Memorandum and is intended to reflect a yield to the First Call Date of the Notes on the Settlement Date equal to the Purchase Yield. The Purchase Yield will be determined as the sum of a fixed spread of 210 basis points (the "Purchase Spread") and the June 2025 Interpolated Mid--Swap Rate determined at or around the Pricing Time, expressed as a percentage and rounded to the third decimal place (with 0.0005 being rounded upwards). In respect of any Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase, the Issuer will also pay an amount equal to any accrued and unpaid interest on the relevant Notes from (and including) the interest payment date for the Notes immediately preceding the Settlement Date up to (but excluding) the Settlement Date, which is expected to be 2 July 2020.
Notes repurchased by the Issuer pursuant to the Offer will be immediately cancelled. Notes which have not been validly tendered and accepted for purchase pursuant to the Offer will remain outstanding after the Settlement Date.
Accrued Interest Payment
The Issuer will pay accrued and unpaid interest in respect of all Notes validly tendered and delivered and accepted for purchase by the Issuer pursuant to the Offer, from (and including) the interest payment date for the Notes immediately preceding the Settlement Date to (but excluding) the Settlement Date.
Maximum Acceptance Amount
The Issuer proposes to accept Notes for purchase up to a maximum aggregate principal amount of EUR 450,000,000 (the "Maximum Acceptance Amount") on the terms and subject to the conditions contained in the Tender Offer Memorandum. In the event that the aggregate principal amount of Notes represented by Tender Instructions is greater than the Maximum Acceptance Amount, such Tender Instructions will be accepted on a pro-rata basis such that the aggregate principal amount of Notes accepted for purchase pursuant to the Offer is no greater than the Maximum Acceptance Amount.
Amendment and Termination
The Issuer reserves the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to extend, re-open, withdraw or terminate the Offer and to amend or waive any of the terms and conditions of the Offer (including, but not limited to, purchasing more than or less than the Maximum Acceptance Amount) at any time following the announcement of the Offer, as described in the Tender Offer Memorandum.
Summary of Action to be Taken
To tender Notes in the Offer, a Noteholder should deliver, or arrange to have delivered on its behalf, via the relevant Clearing System and in accordance with the requirements of such Clearing System, a valid Tender Instruction that is received in each case by the Tender Agent by the Expiration Deadline.
Tender Instructions must be submitted in respect of a principal amount of Notes of no less than the Minimum Denomination, and may be submitted in integral multiples of EUR1,000 thereafter.
Noteholders are advised to check with any bank, securities broker or other intermediary through which they hold Notes when such intermediary would require to receive instructions from a Noteholder in order for that Noteholder to be able to participate in, or (in the limited circumstances in which revocation is permitted) revoke their instruction to participate in, the Offer before the deadlines specified in the Tender Offer Memorandum. The deadlines set by any such intermediary and each Clearing System for the submission of Tender Instructions will be earlier than the relevant deadlines specified in the Tender Offer Memorandum.
Further Information
Any questions or requests for assistance in connection with the Tender Offer Memorandum may be directed to the Dealer Managers and any questions or requests for assistance in connection with the delivery of Tender Instructions or requests for additional copies of the Tender Offer Memorandum or related documents, which may be obtained free of charge, may be directed to the Tender Agent, in each case at the telephone number or e-mail address provided below.
