Glencore announces early refinancing of its Revolving Credit Facility

Glencore announces that it has signed a new Revolving Credit Facility (“RCF”), which will ultimately
refinance and replace the existing $8.45 billion facility. In this initial pre-syndication phase, Glencore
received commitments from its senior banks for $8.4 billion, representing an increase from 37 banks of
close to $3 billion above existing commitment levels. Reflecting the high oversubscription level, Glencore
has currently scaled back and signed in $7.7 billion of such commitments and will now broaden the
refinancing via launch of general syndication to some 30 additional banks in Q2 2016.
Similar to the current facility being replaced in May, this new facility remains unsecured, containing a 12-
month extension option and 12-month borrower’s term-out option, thereby extending the final maturity to
May 2018. There are no financial covenants in the RCF documentation.

Active bookrunners on the deal were ABN AMRO, Bank of Tokyo Mitsubishi, HSBC, ING and Santander.
