On 15 May 2018, the annual general meeting (AGM) of shareholders in Statoil ASA (OSE: STL, NYSE: STO) approved the annual report and accounts for Statoil ASA for 2017, as proposed by the board of directors.

The annual accounts and the annual report for Statoil ASA and the Statoil group for 2017 were approved, and a dividend of USD 0.23 per share will be distributed for the fourth quarter of 2017. The dividend accrues to the holders of the American Depository Receipts (ADRs) listed on the New York Stock Exchange and to the company's shareholders on Oslo Stock Exchange (Oslo Børs) as of 15 May 2018, and as registered in Statoil’s shareholder register with the Norwegian Central Securities Depository (VPS) as of expiry of 18 May 2018 (Record date). Record date for ADR holders is 17 May 2018.

As of 16 May 2018, ADRs listed on the New York Stock Exchange and shares listed on Oslo Børs will be traded ex-dividend.

A proposal from a shareholder had been submitted in advance, suggesting that the board should present a strategy for business transformation from producing energy from fossil sources to renewable energy to ensure the company’s long-term sustainability, and shareholder value. This proposal was not adopted.

Furthermore, a shareholder had proposed that Statoil ASA refrains from drilling exploration wells in PL859 (Korpfjell) and PL857 (Gjøkåsen), whilst the question of whether the licenses granted in the 23rd licensing round are illegal, is still pending in the court. The shareholder’s proposal was not adopted.

The AGM authorised the board to acquire shares in Statoil ASA in the market in order to continue the share saving plan for employees. The general meeting also authorised the board to acquire shares in Statoil ASA in the market for subsequent annulment.

The AGM approved that adjustments in the Marketing Instruction for Statoil ASA, adopted by the annual general meeting on 25 May 2001, be made to the provisions concerning applicable pricing and allocation principles for crude oil, so that Statoil has the necessary incentives to maximize the total value of the State’s and Statoil’s petroleum and ensure fair distribution at any time. The adjustments are made by the Norwegian state represented by the Ministry of Petroleum and Energy.

Please find enclosed the complete minutes of the AGM.
