PA Resources requests further deferral of interest payments and waivers of financial covenants. The 2014 Annual Report to be published 30 April 2015.


PA Resources AB (“PA Resources”, the “Company”) will require additional time for
negotiations with the Company’s creditors regarding its refinancing proposal. PA
Resources has, therefore, today summoned a new bondholders’ meeting and written
procedure, respectively, under its NOK and SEK denominated bonds to propose a
further deferral of its payments of interest and, in relation to the NOK bond,
of principal, to 30 April 2015 and temporary waivers of its financial covenants.

Reference is made to the press releases published by PA Resources on 18
September, 3 October 2014 and 10 February 2015 regarding summonses to
bondholders’ meetings and written procedure respectively, for the Company’s NOK
and SEK denominated bond loans, where the bondholders accepted to defer the
interest payments due in October 2014 until 31 March 2015.

The Company has today summoned a new bondholders’ meeting and initiated a new
written procedure, respectively, for the Company’s NOK and SEK denominated bonds
to be held and completed on 31 March 2015 (the bondholders’ meeting and the
written procedure are jointly referred to as the “Bondholders’ Meetings”). In
the Bondholders’ Meetings, PA Resources proposes to further defer until 30 April
2015 the payments of interest originally due in October 2014 under the NOK and
SEK denominated bond loans as well as a deferral of the payments of interest and
principal due on 5 April 2015 under the NOK denominated bond loan and requests
temporary waivers of compliance with the financial covenants for its SEK and NOK
denominated bond loans.

Since the bondholders’ meetings in February, PA Resources has continued its
active and constructive dialogue with the informal committee of bondholders in
the NOK and SEK bond issues, as well as with the Gunvor Group, the Company’s
largest shareholder and creditor. Although discussions are progressing in a
positive manner, it is evident that more time is needed in order to prepare and
agree on a financing plan which is acceptable to all key stakeholders. The
Company therefore proposes to holders of NOK and SEK bonds to accept to defer
the interest payments falling due on 31 March 2015 and, in relation to the NOK
bonds, the payments of interest and principal falling due on 5 April 2015 until
30 April 2015. Nevertheless, the majority of the bondholders under the
respective bond agreement will be entitled to bring such payment date forward to
an earlier date with a 3 business days’ notice period. The payment date may also
be brought forward to an earlier date, if notice is given, or payments or
settlement of any amounts are made, under the Working Capital and Reserve Based
Lending facilities with Gunvor Group. The amount of the interest payments which
fell due in October 2014 and which is falling due in April 2015, respectively,
will carry an additional interest rate equivalent to the prevailing interest
rate under the respective bonds during the period from the original respective
due dates in October 2014 and April 2015 to 30 april2015.

The bondholders’ meeting under the NOK bonds will take place on, and the written
procedure under the SEK bonds will be completed on, 31 March 2015. Summons
letters for the NOK bonds and written notices for the SEK bonds will be
available on the Company’s website, www.paresources.se and will be distributed
to bondholders over the coming days. Votes will need to be submitted to the
respective trustees no later than 31 March 2015.

The Company has postponed the release of the annual report for 2014 until 30
April 2015.

Further reference is made to the most recent Company Presentation and the
unaudited Q4 2014 report published on 26 February 2015, both available on the
Company’s website.
