   Olav Eimstad, Chairman and CEO, commented that the past 12 months have been "hectic but successful, producing growth on every front. Our portfolio of assets in Africa, the region we are focused on, looks stronger every quarter".
   
   He added that his board takes its social responsibilities seriously and has consequently developed what may be a ground-breaking involvement with local communities wherever the company operates. "It is therefore an important aspect of corporate policy", Eimstad stressed. "Indeed, we believe our vision of community-oriented corporate philosophy to be among the best -- perhaps even unique, in our industry."
   
   "Responsible stewardship of the land and those whose livelihoods depend on it, goes hand-in-hand with our outlook", he went on. "Our aim is to go that extra mile, so that we achieve results beyond expectations."
   
   "We try to apply this outlook in all our areas of operation", Eimstad explained. The company brings people from different backgrounds and skills to find flexible and innovatory solutions -- not only in our green credentials, but also in technical areas such as exploration and in our cultural and professional relationships in each country. "These values are central to how we do business", he added.
