Evacuation of KEROMAN base at Lorient

The U-boats at Lorient were evacuated around August 10-11, 1944 because of the approaching American army. I know that U-981 and U-309 were sent to La Rochelle where U-981 was sunk by mines on August 12, 1944. Forty members of the crew of U-981 were rescued by U-309.

Does anyone know what other U-boats, if any, were evacuated from Lorient?

Thank you
