QGOG Constellation Announces Payment of Interest on 2024 Notes

LUXEMBOURG, June 21, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- QGOG Constellation S.A. ("QGOG Constellation" or the "Company") today announced that it made a $27.6 million interest payment on its 9.5% Senior Notes due 2024 (the "2024 Notes"), which includes interest on overdue interest accrued since such interest payment became due on May 9, 2018.  With this payment, all defaults and events of default under the relevant indenture and other debt instruments of the QGOG Constellation group relating to the failure to make such interest payment have been cured and are no longer outstanding.

The Company's election to defer the interest payment on the 2024 Notes was a strategic decision to facilitate ongoing discussions with certain of its creditors. The Company continues to advance these discussions with its key stakeholders with the aim of a comprehensive re-profiling of its capital structure to match its operating business and the industry's current economic environment.
