   Press Release

    

    

   26 July 2024

    

                      PETROFAC CURES CONTRACT DEFAULT AND
                  ANNOUNCES EXTENSION TO FORBEARANCE AGREEMENT

    

   Agreement with key EPC customer

    

   Petrofac today announces that it has reached an alternative agreement with
   a key  customer with  respect to  the performance  guarantee  requirements
   under that contract.  

    

   The agreement cures the default notice received from that customer,  which
   required a performance guarantee to be posted by 16 June 2024, as outlined
   in the company’s 2023 accounts.  

    

   The Company continues to require performance guarantees for certain of its
   other recently awarded  contracts. Further announcements  will be made  as
   appropriate.

    

   Forbearance agreement with noteholders

    

   The Group has extended  its existing forbearance  agreement in respect  of
   the non-payment of the interest coupon on its senior secured notes from 25
   July to 23 August 2024.

    

   The  forbearance  agreement  is  entered  into  by  an  ad  hoc  group  of
   noteholders representing  approximately  47%  of  the  outstanding  senior
   secured  notes  and  certain  other  acceding  noteholders.  It   provides
   assurance that these noteholders  will not take any  action in respect  of
   the non-payment of  the coupon until  at least 23  August 2024,  providing
   additional time for the Group’s financial restructuring to be progressed.

   Further announcements will be made as appropriate.

    

   ENDS
