Hamilton, Bermuda, September 25, 2025 — Golar LNG Limited (the “Company”) (Nasdaq: GLNG) today announced the pricing of a private offering (the “Offering”) of $500 million in aggregate principal amount of unsecured senior notes due 2030 (the “Notes”). The Notes will bear interest at a rate of 7.500% per year and will mature on October 2, 2030. The Notes will be issued at par and will be senior unsecured obligations of the Company.

The sale of the Notes to the initial purchasers is expected to settle on October 2, 2025, subject to customary closing conditions.

Any offer of the Notes will be made only by means of a private offering memorandum.

The Notes are being offered in the United States only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and to persons outside the United States only in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Notes have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.

This press release does not constitute a notice of redemption for the 2025 Unsecured Bonds.
