Oslo, 25 February 2026: BlueNord ASA ("BlueNord" or the "Company") is pleased to
announce the successful closing of the extension of the Company's USD 1.4
billion Reserve Based Lending Facility ("RBL" or "Facility"), moving the
maturity from December 2029 to December 2031. The extended RBL will start
amortising from December 2028 with a margin payable of SOFR plus 400bps and also
includes an Accordion option of up to USD 400 million that may be used to
support potential future commercial opportunities.
"The extension of our RBL facility is a clear demonstration of our proactive
management of the capital structure and the strength of our underlying business,
evidenced by the continued support of our lender syndicate. With maturity
extended to end 2031 and amortisation pushed to end 2028, we've enhanced
liquidity, reduced refinancing risk and better aligned our debt profile with the
cash flow and investment cycle of our assets," said Jacqueline Lindmark Boye,
Chief Financial Officer of BlueNord.
This information is subject to the disclosure requirements pursuant to section 5
-12 of the Norwegian Securities Trading Act.
