Subject of the Disclosure

Bank of the Philippine Islands Upsizes Syndicated Loan Facility to US$ 300 Million

Background/Description of the Disclosure

Bank of the Philippine Islands (“BPI”) is pleased to announce that it has signed the facility agreement for a 3-year syndicated term loan facility of US$ 300 million (the “Facility”) with The Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation Limited (“HSBC”) and Standard Chartered Bank (“SC”) as Mandated Lead Arrangers, Bookrunners and Underwriters (“MLABUs”). The Facility received an exceptional reception in syndication, and successfully upsized from the original US$ 200 million to US$ 300 million to partially accommodate the heavy oversubscription of more than two times.

The Facility is supported by a total of twenty-one lenders, including the two MLABUs and nineteen participating lenders. HSBC is the facility agent.

Proceeds from the Facility will be used to partly refinance BPI’s existing US$ 600 million bond due September 2023, as well as for general corporate purposes.
