Oslo, 26 June 2020 - The Wallenius Wilhelmsen group (OEX: WALWIL) has reached an
agreement with its lenders to waive a NIBD/EBITDA covenant, and to defer
instalments on certain bank loans 

Due to the impact of site closures in the landbased business as a result of
measures to reduce the spread of COVID-19, Wallenius Wilhelmsen noted in the Q1
2020 report that there is a risk of a breach of a NIBD/EBITDA covenant in a
revolving credit facility for the group's subsidiary WW Solutions per end of the
second quarter of 2020. The company has now reached an agreement with the
relevant lenders to waive this covenant for the remainder of 2020 before it is
gradually reset in 2021.

Furthermore, to strengthen the cash position during the period of reduced
activity, the company has agreed with the banks of WW Ocean to defer instalments
of about USD 70 million, previously scheduled for the second half of 2020. 

Wallenius Wilhelmsen took decisive action early to adjust capacity, reduce costs
and protect our cash position through this turbulent phase. During the Covid-19
pandemic, our focus has been, and will continue to be, the safety of our
employees and surrounding communities, as well as adapting our operations to
best meet our customers evolving needs.
