First Phosphate Corp. (CSE: PHOS) (OTCQX: FRSPF) (OTCQX ADR: FPHOY) (FSE: KD0) is pleased to announce that it has finalized a letter of Intent from the Danish Export Credit Agency for up to EUR 170 Million in equipment and services purchases for its igneous phosphate mine project in Saguenay-Lac-St-Jean, Quebec, Canada.

EIFO is backed by the Danish state, and as such, the EIFO guarantee can be considered AAA rated. The guarantee is provided to one or more banks providing the funding and EIFO participation can be expected to be pro rata and pari passu with other senior lenders.

“We look forward to continuing to work with First Phosphate and the other parties involved in this transaction,” says Jens Hestbech, Director of EIFO. “We can assure First Phosphate that we will work with a constructive approach towards the project, in order to reach a successful result.”

EIFO has been involved in the financing of a significant number of transactions and projects around the world and has extensive experience within the field of export and project finance.

Issuance of an EIFO guarantee is subject to EIFO internal credit approval, satisfactory documentation as well as satisfactory completion of normal and customary project due diligence, including but not limited to environmental and social matters. The LOI remains non-binding until the exact borrower/guarantor and security arrangements are established and is subject to Danish law and Danish jurisdiction.
