Göppingen-based press manufacturer Schuler has prematurely extended the
syndicated loan of EUR 450 million it concluded in March 2008 and thus
created a calculable financial structure for the years ahead. The loan
agreement signed today (December 7, 2009) will initially run until the end
of September 2012. The loan amount is unchanged and comprises cash tranches
of EUR 200 million in total and a credit line
tranche of EUR 250 million.

The agreement was concluded between Schuler AG with its main subsidiaries
and the existing consortium of banks and credit insurance partners led by
Baden-Württembergische Bank, Deutsche Bank and Commerzbank. With its newly
negotiated syndicated loan agreement, Schuler has improved its financial
security considerably.
