Fixed income investor calls, contemplated bond issue and new financing facilities

Golar LNG Limited (the "Company”) has mandated DNB Markets and Pareto Securities as Global Coordinators and Danske Bank and Nordea Markets as Joint Lead Managers to arrange a series of fixed income investor calls commencing on October 4, 2021. A USD denominated 4-year senior unsecured bond issue may follow, subject to, inter alia, market conditions. Net proceeds from the bond issue will be applied towards the refinancing of the Company’s outstanding convertible bonds maturing in February 2022 and for general corporate purposes.

The Company is also pleased to announce agreed term sheets for two new bank finance facilities:

1. A 3-year Revolving Credit Facility ("RCF”) of up to $200 million secured against the Company’s shareholding in New Fortress Energy at an interest rate of L+300bps. The RCF will replace the existing $100 million bilateral facility maturing in December carrying a current interest rate of L+450bps.
2. A 5-year refinancing facility for the FSRU Golar Tundra of up to $182 million at an interest rate of L+300bps. The new Golar Tundra facility will replace the current $104.4 million facility that matures in June 2022 and carries interest at L+385bps.  

Both of the bank facilities above are with existing relationship banks, and subject to final documentation.
