Risk factors Market risk Foreign exchange risk arises when future commercial transactions or recognised assets or liabilities are denominated in a currency that is not the entity’s functional currency. The Group operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk in multiple foreign currencies. This risk is particularly relevant with respect to the Swedish crown (SEK), Danish crown (DKK), Euro (EUR), Latvian lat (LVL), Lithuanian litas (LTL), and US dollar (USD). Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions, recognised assets and liabilities and net investments in foreign operations. The Company has investments in foreign subsidiaries, whose net assets are exposed to foreign currency translation risk. Credit risk Credit risk is the risk of financial loss that the Company would suffer if the customers failed to perform its financial obligations. Atea has for years had modest losses on trade debtors. New customers must be approved before they are granted credit. The responsibility for granting credit is decentralised to each operating unit. Credit insurance is used only to a small extent. The Group has no significant concentrations of credit risk, since the customer base is large and unrelated. Counterparties regarding derivative contracts and bank deposits are limited to financial institutions with high credit rating. Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities, the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities and the ability to close out market positions. Group Treasury aims at maintaining flexibility in funding by keeping committed credit lines available. Cash flow and floating interest rate risk Deposits, interest rates on deposits and loans have a term of less than 12 months. As the Group has no significant interestbearing assets, the Group’s income and operating cash flows are substantially independent of changes in market interest rates. The Group’s interest rate risk arises from borrowings. Borrowings issued at floating rate of interest expose the Group’s cash flow to interest rate risk. The Group has both short-term and long-term financing facilities. The Group has a MDKK 500, 5 year committed facility with fixed interest rate. The rest of the Group’s financing facilities has floating interest rate. Page 4 of 24 Atea ASA– 19.09 2013 Registration Document Sensitivity analysis The Group has identified market risk (foreign exchange risk, primarily with respect to SEK, DKK, EUR, USD, LVL and LTL) and floating interest rate risk as the two most important risk factors it is exposed to. The tables below illustrate how fluctuations in these two risks could affect the Group’s earnings and equity after tax. Page 5 of 24 Atea ASA– 19.09 2013 Registration Document 2.

Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expectations include, among others, economic and market conditions in the geographic areas and industries that are or will be major markets for the Issuer's businesses, market acceptance of new products and services, changes in governmental regulations, interest rates, fluctuations in currency exchange rates and such other factors as may be discussed from time to time in the Registration Document.
