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.
