Genesis extends its Sustainable Finance Programme

Today, Genesis Energy Limited (Genesis) announced the designation of its 2047 Capital Bond (GN040) as a Green
Capital Bond aligned to the Green Bond Principles 2021 and the Climate Transition Finance Handbook as issued
by the International Capital Markets Association (see Note 1) effective from 28 January 2022. This brings the
total green bonds on issue to $325 million.

An amount equal to the proceeds from the Green Capital Bond will be notionally allocated to refinance qualifying
renewable energy generation assets, including hydro-electricity and wind energy.

Genesis also announced that it has converted a further $90 million of its revolving bank facilities with Bank of
New Zealand and $60 million with MUFG Bank Ltd to sustainability linked loans, bringing the total loans linked
to Genesis achieving its ambitious sustainability targets to $250 million.

The targets include reductions across all scopes of emissions, ramping up renewable energy generation and a
future of work programme. Genesis will pay a lower interest rate on the loan for achieving its goals but will have
to pay higher interest if it falls short of its commitments.

In November 2021, Genesis become the first company in New Zealand to have a Sustainable Finance Framework,
loan and bond all aligned to the Climate Transition Finance Handbook. Genesis Acting Chief Financial Officer,
Emma Oettli, said today’s announcement is further evidence of the company’s commitment to playing its role
in the transition to a low carbon future.
