Notification of interest payments on the Notes
Nostrum Oil & Gas Finance B.V. (the "Issuer"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nostrum Oil & Gas PLC (the "Parent"), was initially required by 30 June 2025 and 31 December 2025 to have paid accrued interest in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Issuer's outstanding 5.00% senior secured notes due 2026 (ISIN: USN64884AF16; US66978CAF95) (the "SSNs") and 1.00%/13.00% senior unsecured notes due 2026 (ISIN: USN64884AE41; US66978CAD48) (the "SUNs" and together with the SSNs, the "Notes").
