LEMMINKÄINEN HAS AGREED ON AMENDED TERMS OF ITS FINANCIAL AGREEMENT
Lemminkäinen Corporation has agreed on amending the terms of its EUR 185 million committed revolving credit facility by extending its maturity and by increasing its amount to EUR 260 million of which EUR 75 million is available when agreed conditions are met.

The revolving credit facility includes two covenants reviewed on a quarterly basis: equity ratio and net debt to EBITDA ratio. The facility is unsecured.
