In conjunction with the Tender Offer, the Issuer solicited consents (the “Consents”) (the “Consent Solicitation”) to certain proposed amendments further described in the Statement (the “Proposed Amendments”) to each of the Indenture and the Notes, including for the release of all collateral securing the Notes and the termination of all related collateral documents.
The Issuer hereby announces that, as of May 6, 2026, at 5:00 p.m. New York City time (the “Early Tender Date”), it received valid tenders of Notes and Consents from Holders in the following amounts:

U.S.$550,000,000.00 | U.S.$354,053,013.62 | $468,165,000.00 | 85.12% | ||
| (1) U.S.$301,373,142.84 of the outstanding principal amount of the 6.375% Senior Secured Notes due 2038 was tendered, after applying the 64.3732752% scaling factor set forth in the Statement to the original principal amount tendered. (2) Original principal amount of the Notes tendered pursuant to the Offer expressed as an approximate percentage of the aggregate original principal amount of Notes outstanding. |
The Withdrawal Deadline has passed and Holders may no longer withdraw Notes that have been validly tendered in the Tender Offer or revoke their Consents delivered pursuant to the Consent Solicitation. In accordance with the Statement, Holders of Notes that have been validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) at or prior to the Early Tender Date and accepted for purchase pursuant to the Tender Offer and the Consent Solicitation will receive the Total Consideration. In addition, such Holders of Notes will also receive accrued and unpaid interest on those Notes from the last interest payment date with respect to those Notes to, but not including, the Early Settlement Date, together with additional amounts thereon, if any. As described in the Statement, assuming all conditions to the Tender Offer have been satisfied, the Issuer currently expects that the Early Settlement Date will be May 14, 2026, concurrently with the settlement of the New Offering (as defined below).
The Tender Offer is scheduled to expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on May 21, 2026, unless extended or earlier terminated by the Company in its sole discretion (the “Expiration Date”). Eligible Holders who validly tender Notes after the Early Tender Date but at or prior to the Expiration Date, and whose Notes are accepted for purchase, will not be eligible to receive the Early Tender Payment and will only be eligible to receive the Tender Offer Consideration, as described in the Statement.
Any Holder who tenders Notes in the Tender Offer will be deemed to automatically have provided Consents, and Notes may not be tendered without delivering Consents. Based on the Consents received as of the Early Tender Date, the Company has obtained the Consents to effect all of the Proposed Amendments as set forth in the Statement. Consequently, as previously announced, the Issuer expects to execute the supplemental indenture (the “Supplemental Indenture”) effecting the Proposed Amendments with respect to the Notes that will be effective upon execution but will only become operative at such time as 75% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes are accepted for purchase by the Company pursuant to the Tender Offer on the Early Settlement Date. The Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation is being made in connection with a proposed offering (the “New Offering”) of senior notes (the “New Notes”) by Esentia Energy Development, S.A.B. de C.V., the parent company of the Issuer (the “Parent”). The Tender Offer and the Consent Solicitation are conditioned upon, among other things, the settlement of the New Offering on terms satisfactory to the Parent on the Early Settlement Date (the “Financing Condition”). No assurance can be given that the New Offering will settle on the terms currently envisioned or at all. The New Offering is not conditioned upon the completion of the Tender Offer or the Consent Solicitation.
The Information and Tender Agent for the Tender Offer and the Consent Solicitation is D.F. King & Co., Inc. BofA Securities, Inc. and Citigroup Global Markets Inc. are acting as Dealer Managers for the Tender Offer and the Consent Solicitation.
