VINX Index Information (VINX Benchmark): Exclusion of Prosafe from VINX Benchmark Indexes on May 16, 2008 (23/08)

Prosafe (CY0100470919) will carry out a split into two separate entities by distributing 90.1% of the shares in Prosafe Production to existing Prosafe shareholders. Provided approval from the Oslo Børs board, the first listing day of Prosafe Production is planned for June 2, 2008. Due to the deviation between ex-date and listing date of Prosafe Production, a satisfactory estimate of the value of Prosafe Production was not possible to obtain. The Prosafe share will therefore be excluded from the VINX Benchmark indexes in accordance to the “Rules for the Construction and Maintenance of the VINX All-Share, Sector and Benchmark and Tradable Indices”, rule 5.5 and 5.7.1 (valuation method), on May 16, 2008 and will be re- included on May 19, 2008.
