Dundee Precious Metals Inc. has added $125 million of credit capacity to its existing long-term committed revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Facility"), increasing the total size of the Revolving Facility to $275 million. This increase was supported by all of the Company's existing lenders, being BNP Paribas, Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, Raiffeisen Bank International AG Group, Royal Bank of Canada, and Unicredit Bank AG, as well as Export Development Canada, a new lender to the Company.

"This expanded credit facility provides us with access to a cost effective and flexible source of funding that maintains our financial strength and supports the continued development of our business," said Rick Howes, DPM's President and CEO. "We are pleased with the support we received from our banking partners and are well positioned to fund our anticipated near-term discretionary growth projects."

The expanded Revolving Facility is comprised of two evergreen tranches of $150 million (previously $125 million) and $45 million (previously $25 million) that mature in February 2017 and 2019, respectively, and a new tranche of $80 million that matures in June 2019, with quarterly reductions of $4 million beginning in the third year. The Revolving Facility is supported by guarantees from, and by pledges of the Company's investments in its wholly-owned operating subsidiaries. Interest is based on LIBOR plus a spread, which varies between 2.75% and 5.50%, depending upon the tranche and Company's debt leverage ratio (funded net debt to EBITDA), as defined in the Revolving Facility agreement.
