Update on proposed acquisitions and creditor agreements

2 July 2020

Premier is pleased to announce that the Group's creditors have approved the acquisition of the Andrew Area and Shearwater assets (together, the "BP acquisitions") under the amended terms. The BP Acquisitions remain conditional on finalisation of the sale and purchase agreement, the refinancing of Premier's existing credit facilities, equity funding and customary other approvals, including shareholder approval.

Premier also has the support from a subset of its creditors on the terms of the "Stable Platform Agreement" to waive the Company's financial covenants through to 30 September 2020. This has been put to the creditor group for their formal approval by 8 July 2020. Under its current financing arrangements, Premier is required to provide a covenant compliance certificate to its lenders within 90 days of 30 June.

Separately, Premier notes today that it will not be pursuing the purchase of the additional 25 per cent interest in Tolmount from Dana Petroleum, following the termination of the Escrow Agreement on 30 June 2020.
