Boulogne-Billancourt (France), 21 September 2020 – As announced on 1 September 2020, Vallourec launched a consent solicitation on 2 September 2020 seeking the consent of the holders of its US law governed bonds due in 2022 (Code: XS1700480160) and in 2023 (Code: XS1807435026). The purpose of this consent solicitation was to obtain the consent, with the required majority of each series of such bonds, to effect certain waivers in order to permit Vallourec, if it wishes to do so, to request the appointment of a mandataire ad hoc without such action constituting an event of default under the indentures governing such bonds.

Vallourec announces today that on 18 September 2020 it has received the requisite consents under each series of bonds and that it intends to request, as soon as practicable, the appointment of a mandataire ad hoc.

Vallourec has also obtained the authorizations from its banks in accordance with the terms of the relevant revolving credit agreements, to engage discussions with respect to its financial restructuring.
