Forward looking statements
2
This presentation contains forward-looking statements which reflects management’s current expectations, estimates and projections about
its operations. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, that address activities and events that will, should, could or may
occur in the future are forward-looking statements. Words such as “may,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “intend,”
“forecast,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “propose,” “potential,” “continue” or the negative of these terms and similar expressions are
intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to
certain risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond our control and are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes
and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in such forward-looking statements. You should not place undue
reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this presentation. Unless legally required, Höegh LNG
undertakes no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or
otherwise.
Among the important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements are: changes
in LNG transportation and regasification market trends; changes in the supply and demand for LNG; changes in trading patterns; changes
in applicable maintenance and regulatory standards; political events affecting production and consumption of LNG and Höegh LNG’s
ability to operate and control its vessels; change in the financial stability of clients of the Company; Höegh LNG’s ability to win upcoming
tenders and securing employment for the FSRUs on order; changes in Höegh LNG’s ability to convert LNG carriers to FSRUs including
the cost and time of completing such conversions; changes in Höegh LNG’s ability to complete and deliver projects awarded; increases in
the Company’s cost base; changes in the availability of vessels to purchase; failure by yards to comply with delivery schedules; changes
to vessels’ useful lives; changes in the ability of Höegh LNG to obtain additional financing, in particular, currently, in connection with the
turmoil in financial markets; the success in achieving commercial success for the projects being developed by the Company; changes in
applicable regulations and laws; and unpredictable or unknown factors herein also could have material adverse effects on forward-looking
statements.

Regasification
Status for Klaipedos Nafta FSRU for Lithuania
The FSRU will provide a second import
gate for natural gas to Lithuania and add
to the security of energy supply
The Project is on schedule on all
activities for planned start up in Q3 2014
New LNG terminal law adopted by the
Parliament of Lithuania in June 2012
Klaipeda City Council approved the
construction of the LNG terminal in
August 2012
Debt financing commitments received for
USD 250 m, subject to ECA approval and
documentation
FSRU

The LNG import terminal will connect to Indonesia's existing main grid and supply gas to
Sumatra and the Jakarta region replacing supply from depleting gas fields in Sumatra
Technical specifications of FSRU and mooring changed due to the specifications at the
new site
Relevant relocation expenses covered by PGN
Operations planned to start in Q2 2014
Debt financing process now expected to be completed during first half of 2013
Final FSRU pre-delivery instalment to be paid in November 2012

Summary
-
LNG is the world’s fastest-growing source of energy
16
Natural gas demand driven by
Economic growth driving power
generation and industrial activity
Fuel substitution due to emission
reductions and cost savings
LNG demand
11% of natural gas transported as LNG
LNG expected to grow more than twice
as fast as total global gas production
LNG trading volumes have historically
been limited by liquefaction capacity
Source: Wood Mackenzie
-
Expected LNG supply growth backed by committed liquefaction projects
A large number of new gas fields are being
developed with LNG export facilities to meet
the increasing demand
Production expected to reach 330 mtpa in
2017 – up from 242 million tonnes in 2011
Australia the "base load" for new LNG
production post 2015 accounting for
approximately 50% of incremental supply
The ongoing development of shale gas
resources in North America has created a
surplus of natural gas and an export potential
up to 90 mtpa subject to government
approvals

Japan – The big unknown / upside for the spot market – Nuclear or not?
Total nuclear power output reached 27 TWh
pre-Fukishima, about 28% of Japan’s
electricity production.
Two of 54 reactors now back in operation
2010 LNG import were 71 million tonnes
LNG imports from March 2011 to March
2012 totalled at 83 million tonnes, up 12
mtpa or 17% from 2010
To replace all nuclear capacity in Japan by
LNG, 45 mtpa would need to be imported
Will the nuclear capacity be brought back?
Upside: 33 million tonnes or 550 cargoes of
LNG per year
