Refining NZ debt facilities extended and increased

The New Zealand Refining Company Limited (“Refining NZ”) is pleased to announce that it has
extended and expanded its existing bank facilities, increasing the weighted average term to over
three years and adding $50 million of additional capacity.

In respect of the $80 million bank facility maturing in March 2021, Refining NZ has entered into
binding documentation to achieve an extension of this facility for a further two years and added two
new facilities of $25 million each, with maturities of September 2021 and March 2023.

This brings Refining NZ’s total available debt funding facilities to $400 million (including the
company’s $75 million subordinated notes on issue) and increases the average term of the bank
facilities to over three years. Refining NZ now has no significant maturities until March 2022. The
Company’s current net debt position as at 25 March 2020 is c.$251 million, compared with the 31
December 2019 position of $241 million.

Refining NZ’s Chairman, Simon Allen said; “Given the challenging operating environment and the
uncertainty associated with COVID-19, we have chosen to increase and extend our bank facilities.
We are very pleased with the support of our banks which is a reflection of their confidence in our
business.”

“In addition to extending its bank facilities, Refining NZ is working with its customers to develop an
optimised approach to COVID-19.”

An updated debt maturity profile is attached as an Appendix to this announcement.
