FINANCING OF EASTERN DISTRIBUTOR (M1)

Transurban announces that the Eastern Distributor (ED), in which Transurban has a 75.1% interest, will issue A$300 million of secured fixed rate 7-year notes (Notes).
ED currently has A$520 million of debt of which A$295 million matures in July 2014. The new Notes will repay that tranche and associated transaction costs.
The Notes will mature in November 2020 and rank equally with ED's remaining debt tranche.
The book-build was completed on 26 November 2013 and the notes will be issued at a fixed coupon of
5.5%. Settlement of the Notes is expected to occur on 9 December 2013 and is subject to customary closing conditions.
Transurban CFO Samantha Hogg said of the issue: "This represents the inaugural issuance for a NSW toll road in the unwrapped domestic bond market and the first for a Transurban owned asset. It represents a further diversification of Transurban's debt portfolio and highlights the continued attraction of Transurban's assets to debt investors. Transurban has been working closely with the NSW Government to enable this transaction and looks forward to further issuance across the NSW toll road portfolio."
