Funding Agreement Signed

Jubilant is pleased to announce that on 25 August, 2015 it entered into a funding agreement with Vernons Financial Ltd., an independent British Virgin Islands-based investment vehicle, for an amount of USD 13.5 million by way of an unsecured loan ("Loan"). The tenor of the Loan is five years with maturity on 31(st) August, 2020. The initial tranche of the Loan is USD 12.5 million, with additional tranches to be drawn on a mutually agreed basis. The Loan will bear interest at a rate of 8% per annum ("p.a.") for the first two years and 9.5% p.a. for rest of the tenure, out of which interest at the rate of 2% p.a for first two years will be paid on half-yearly basis and balance interest will be compounded, to be paid at maturity date. The interest payment of 2% p.a for first two years is secured by a corporate guarantee of Jubilant Energy (Holding) BV* (the "Guarantee"). These funds will be used to refinance and to service the Company's existing debt.
