Litigation Matters
On April 27, 2017, Frontline Ltd. (“Frontline”) filed a complaint against DHT Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”), BW Group Limited (“BW Group”) and the Company’s directors in the High Court of the Republic of the Marshall Islands (the “Court”) among other things alleging certain fiduciary duty breaches and other claims in connection with the Company’s Rights Agreement, dated as of January 29, 2017, and the entry by the Company into the Vessel Acquisition Agreement (“VAA”), dated as of March 23, 2017, between the Company and BW Group, pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire 9 very large crude carriers (“VLCCs”) and newbuild contracts for 2 VLCCs from BW Group and seeking certain injunctive relief relating to transactions contemplated by the VAA. The Company believes the claims set forth in Frontline’s complaint are without merit.
On April 28, 2017, the Court issued an order (the “Court Order”) denying Frontline’s request for a temporary restraining order in connection with these proceedings. The previous summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the Court Order, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
