Frontline Ltd. (NYSE/OSE: FRO) today announced that the Marshall Islands Court has agreed to hear its request for a preliminary injunction against DHT Holdings on May 17, 2017. Frontline seeks an order requiring DHT to set aside its poison pill and other improper takeover defenses DHT has erected to entrench itself and its management against offers by Frontline and other third-party bidders (aside from BW Group).
We continue to urge the Board of DHT to negotiate in good faith with Frontline over its proposed offer, for the benefit of all DHT shareholders and consistent with the Board's fiduciary duties. We will explore all available courses to ensure DHT shareholders receive equitable treatment.

not a substitute for the prospectus and/or proxy statement Frontline would file

with DHT is reached or for any other document which Frontline may file with the
SEC or send to DHT or Frontline stockholders in connection with the proposed

Forward-Looking Statements
Matters discussed in this communication may constitute forward-looking
statements. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides safe
harbor protections for forward-looking statements, which 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 "believe", "anticipate", "intends",
"estimate", "forecast", "project", "plan", "potential", "may", "should",
"expect", "pending" and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements.
The forward-looking statements in this communication are based upon various
assumptions. Although we believe 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 our control, we cannot assure you that we will achieve or accomplish
these expectations, beliefs or projections. The information set forth herein
speaks only as of the date hereof, and we disclaim any intention or obligation
to update any forward-looking statements as a result of developments occurring
after the date of this communication. In addition to these important factors and
matters discussed elsewhere herein, important factors that, in our view, could
cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-
looking statements include DHT's failure to accept Frontline's proposal and
enter into a definitive agreement to effect the transaction, fluctuations in the
value of Frontline common shares issued in connection with the proposed
acquisition, the strength of world economies, fluctuations in currencies and
interest rates, general market conditions, including fluctuations in charter
hire rates and vessel values, changes in demand in the dry bulk market, changes
in our operating expenses, including bunker prices, drydocking and insurance
costs, the market for our 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, political events or acts by terrorists, and
other important factors described from time to time in the reports filed by the
Frontline with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
