M&P secures the re-profiling of its debt repayments

• Improvement of liquidity in a volatile macro environment thanks to lower repayments in 2020 and 2021
• M&P remains committed to debt reduction, with repayments to start immediately (March 2020)

Etablissements Maurel & Prom (Euronext Paris: MAU, ISIN FR0000051070, "M&P") announces the signature of amendment agreements (together the "Amendments") to re-profile the repayment of its two debt facilities, the US$600 million term loan with a syndicate of lenders (the "Term Loan") and the US$200 million loan (US$100 million drawn and US$100 million undrawn) from M&P's controlling shareholder PT Pertamina International Eksplorasi Dan Produksi ("PIEP") (the "Shareholder Loan").

Under the terms of the Amendments, the scheduled debt repayments for both facilities have been reduced in 2020 and 2021, allowing M&P to maintain ample liquidity and better adapt debt repayments to cash flow generation and investment profile. The amendment to the Shareholder Loan also demonstrates the continued support of PIEP to M&P, as a significant amount of its repayment has now been pushed to 2024, beyond the final maturity date for the Term Loan.

Olivier de Langavant, CEO of M&P, declared: "Securing the Amendments is a healthy measure, which will allow M&P to deliver tangible progress on deleveraging while maintaining a robust cash balance in the current macroeconomic environment. Following the initial two year grace period, M&P is committed to reducing its debt, and the first quarterly instalment of the Term Loan to be repaid in the upcoming days marks a significant milestone. M&P is strongly positioned to face the volatility of current market conditions thanks to its long-life assets and the flexibility offered by the operational control of its key assets".
