       Glencore announces refinancing of its Short-Term
                 Revolving Credit Facilities

Glencore plc ("Glencore") is pleased to announce the refinancing of its
short-term revolving credit facilities (the "Facilities") effective 24th May
2018.

The Facilities were initially launched at USD 6 billion and closed
substantially oversubscribed, raising USD 9.7 billion, reflecting strong
support from Glencore’s broad group of relationship banks.

Due to the stronger commodity price environment, Glencore has increased the
size of the Facilities to USD 9.085 billion. A total of 58 banks committed to
the Facilities, including 31 Mandated Lead Arrangers and Bookrunners.

The Facilities refinance Glencore’s existing USD 7.335 billion short term
revolving credit facilities signed in May 2017.

In line with the current facilities, the new Facilities remain unsecured,
containing a 12-month extension option and 12-month borrower’s term-out
option, thereby extending the final maturity to May 2020. There are no
financial covenants in the Facilities documentation.

BNP Paribas, HSBC Bank plc, The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd., a member
of the Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group and Santander UK plc were the Active
Bookrunners in the syndication of the Facilities.
