Enerflex Ltd. (TSX: EFX) (NYSE: EFXT) ("Enerflex" or the "Company"), a leading supplier of vertically integrated products and services to the global energy industry, is pleased to announce today that it has completed its acquisition of Exterran Corporation ("Exterran"), a leader in natural gas processing and treatment and compression products and services (the "Transaction"). Enerflex's common shares will continue to trade on the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") under the symbol "EFX", and the Company will commence trading on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") under the symbol "EFXT" on October 13, 2022.

Enerflex is a premier integrated global provider of energy infrastructure and energy transition solutions. With enhanced scale and capabilities, Enerflex is optimally positioned to serve customers in key natural gas, energy transition, and produced water markets, which will enhance long-term shareholder value through sustainable improvements in efficiency, profitability, and cash flow generation.

"Today marks the beginning of the new Enerflex, and we couldn't be more excited to officially unite our talented teams and best-in-class capabilities to deliver leading modular energy solutions to our expanded customer base," said Marc Rossiter, Enerflex's President and Chief Executive Officer. "With our premier global platform, diversified offerings, and cash-flow-generative business model, Enerflex is ideally positioned to opportunistically harness macro trends to meet the growing global need for natural gas and energy security and be resilient through all commodity cycles. We welcome our new colleagues and look forward to building upon the impressive legacies of both companies as we efficiently, thoughtfully, and reliably serve our customers and deliver sustained growth and value for shareholders."

In accordance with the merger agreement, Exterran stockholders will receive 1.021 common shares of Enerflex for each share of Exterran common stock held. The trading of Exterran common stock is expected to be suspended today.

Immediately following the close of the Transaction, Enerflex will be focused on successfully integrating the two companies to become a more resilient, profitable, and efficient business, which includes delivering on expected cost savings and synergies of approximately U.S.$60 million annually. Discretionary cash flow will initially be directed at strengthening the Company's financial position, with Enerflex targeting its bank-adjusted net debt to EBITDA ratio to be below 2.5 times within 12 to 18 months.

CAPITAL STRUCTURE

On October 12, 2022, Enerflex successfully closed its previously announced private offering (the "Offering") of U.S.$625 million aggregate principal amount of 9.00% senior secured notes due 2027 (the "Notes"). Enerflex intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering, together with its U.S.$150 million three-year secured term loan facility, an initial draw under its U.S.$700 million three-year secured revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility"), and cash on hand, to fully repay the existing Enerflex and Exterran notes and revolving credit facilities and put in place a new debt capital structure. The balance of the Revolving Credit Facility will be used for committed capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes and will provide significant liquidity for Enerflex.

The Notes and the related guarantees were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, any state securities laws, or the laws of any other jurisdiction, and the Company does not intend to register the Notes or the related guarantees. This news release does not constitute an offer to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy, the Notes, nor shall there be any sale of the Notes in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful.

Enerflex has approximately 123.7 million common shares outstanding as of October 13, 2022.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS UPDATE

Enerflex is committed to maintaining the highest standards of corporate governance, benefitting from the experience of the existing members of the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board"), as well as James Gouin, who will be joining the Board from Exterran. Mr. Gouin will serve on the Audit Committee.
