Schedule 14D-9 filed February 14, 2024
General
1.Rule 14e-2(a) requires Euronav to express a position on the Offers by stating that it
recommends acceptance or rejection, expresses no opinion and is remaining neutral or is
unable to take a position with respect to the Offers. In each case, Euronav must explain
the reasons for its position. We note your statement that the Supervisory Board “has
unanimously recommended that holders of Ordinary Shares who are aligned with
Euronav’s new strategy should not tender their Ordinary Shares in the Offers, and that
holders of Ordinary Shares who do not embrace Euronav’s new strategy should tender
their Ordinary Shares in the Offers.” Please revise this statement (and other similar
statements throughout the Schedule 14D-9) to expressly state Euronav’s position with
respect to the Offers and to explain the reasons for its position.
We remind you that the filing persons are responsible for the accuracy and adequacy of
their disclosures, notwithstanding any review, comments, action or absence of action by the staff.
