Bond Trustee Fees

The Annual Fee is payable in advance and falls due for the first time together with the issue of the Bonds, and subsequently once a year.

The Annual Fee will be adjusted annually in accordance with the Norwegian Consumer Price Index.

The Issuer will be charged separately for work related to extraordinary situations under the Bond Agreement or any other Finance Document (as defined in the Bond Agreement). The Work Fee will be charged on a case to case basis, by hourly rate or based on assessed fixed rate.

The Issuer will also be charged separately for Bondholders’ meetings, and will be charged a Fixed Meeting Fee which includes preparation of standard documents for the meeting, the use of the premise of the Bond Trustee related to the meeting and the Bond Trustee’s participation at the meeting.
