Safe harbor statement as to the future
This announcement may contain forward-looking statements, including ‘forward-looking statements’ within the meaning of
the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Words such as “will”, “aim”, “expects”, “anticipates”, “intends”, “plans”, “believes”, “estimates”, “projects”, “forecasts”, “may”, “should”, or the negative of these terms and other
similar expressions of future performance or results, and their negatives, are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based upon current expectations and assumptions regarding anticipated
developments and other factors affecting the Company. They are not historical facts, nor are they guarantees of future performance.
Where the Company expresses an expectation or belief as to future events or results, such expectation or belief is
expressed in good faith and believed to have a reasonable basis. However, because these forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties, there are important factors that could cause actual
results to differ materially from those expressed, projected or implied by these forward-looking statements. In light of these risks and uncertainties, undue reliance should not be placed on forward-looking statements contained in this release
because they are statements about events that are not certain to occur as described or at all.
Important factors that, in our view, could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the
forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the strength of the world economy and currencies including central bank policies intention to combat overall inflation and rising interest rates, the general domestic and international
political conditions or events, including “trade wars” and the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the highly cyclical natures of our business causing fluctuations in charter hire rates and vessel values caused by changes in supply vessels and
constructions of newbuilding’s and changes in “ton-mile” demand caused by changes in worldwide OPEC petroleum production, consumption and storage, the duration and severity of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, including its impact on the demand for
petroleum products and the seaborne transportation of clean products, the interruption or failure of our information technology and communication system including cyber-attacks, the increased cost of capital or limited access to funding due to EU
taxonomy and the potential liability from future litigation and future costs due to environmental damage and vessel collision, the potential conflicts of interest involving our board of directors and senior management.
Except to the extent required by applicable law or regulation, the Company undertakes no obligation to release publicly
any revisions or updates to these forward-looking statements to reflect new information future events or circumstances after the date of this release or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. Please see TORM’s filings with the U.S.

update any forward-looking statements as a result of developments occurring after the date of this communication.
