March 28, 2014, Geneva, Switzerland – Etrion Corporation (“Etrion” or the “Company”) (TSX: ETX / OMX: ETX), a solar independent power producer, announces closing of books for a new EUR 80 million secured bond in the Norwegian bond market. The new bond has an annual interest rate of 8.0% and matures in April 2019. Net proceeds from the bond issue will be used to refinance the Company’s existing EUR 60 million corporate bond that pays 9.0% annual interest and matures April 2015 with ISIN NO0010607302 (“ETRION01 PRO”), as well as for general corporate purposes. Marco A. Northland, Etrion’s CEO, commented: “We are very pleased once again with the strong interest shown by the Scandinavian capital markets. This bond issue allows us to refinance our existing corporate bond with a larger amount on a longer maturity at a lower interest rate. The incremental proceeds after the refinancing will be used to advance our project pipeline in Chile and Japan.” ABG Sundal Collier, Pareto Securities and Swedbank acted as joint lead managers for the bond issue.
