/NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES. FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THIS RESTRICTION MAY CONSTITUTE A VIOLATION OF UNITED STATES SECURITIES LAWS./

CALGARY, AB, Sept. 15, 2025 /CNW/ - Keyera Corp. (TSX: KEY) ("Keyera") announced today that it has agreed to issue $2.3 billion aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes (the "Senior Notes") and $500 million aggregate principal amount of fixed-to-fixed rate subordinated notes (the "Hybrid Notes" and together with the Senior Notes, the "Notes") consisting of:

• $500 million of 3.702% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2030,
• $600 million of 4.204% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2033,
• $500 million of 4.569% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2035,
• $700 million of 5.309% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2055, and
• $500 million of 6.000% Fixed-to-Fixed Rate Subordinated Notes, due 2055

The offering of the Notes (the "Offering") is expected to close on September 29, 2025.

The net proceeds from the issuance of the Notes, together with the proceeds from the previously-announced subscription receipt offering, will be used to fund a portion of the purchase price of Keyera's acquisition of Plains Midstream Canada ULC ("PMC"), as announced on June 17, 2025 (the "Acquisition") pursuant to a share purchase agreement between Keyera and Plains Midstream Luxembourg S.A.RL (the "Acquisition Agreement"). The remaining balance, if any, will be used for general corporate purposes. The Acquisition is of substantially all of Plains' Canadian natural gas liquids ("NGL") business, plus select United States assets, for total cash consideration of $5.15 billion, subject to adjustments. The Acquisition is expected to close in the first quarter of 2026, subject to satisfaction or waiver of customary closing conditions, including clearance under the Competition Act (Canada) and other applicable regulatory reviews.

If the closing of the Acquisition has not occurred on or prior to 5:00 p.m. (Calgary time) on June 30, 2026, or if, prior to such time, the Acquisition Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms or Keyera issues a press release announcing, or notifies the trustee for the Notes, that it does not intend to proceed with the Acquisition, as further described in the terms of the Notes, the Notes will be subject to a special mandatory redemption at a price equal to 101 percent of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of such special mandatory redemption.

The Notes are being offered through a syndicate of dealers co-led by RBC Capital Markets and CIBC Capital Markets, and also including TD Securities as Joint Bookrunners, on a private placement basis, in reliance upon exemptions from the prospectus requirements in each of the provinces of Canada and pursuant to Preliminary Offering Memoranda dated September 12, 2025 and Final Offering Memoranda to be dated on or about September 15, 2025 (collectively, the "Offering Memorandum").

Following the closing of the Offering, Keyera intends to commence a consent solicitation from holders of its 6.875% Fixed-to-Fixed Rate Subordinated Notes, Series 2019-A, due June 13, 2079 (the "Series 1 Notes") and its 5.95% Fixed-to-Fixed Rate Subordinated Notes, Series 2021-A, due March 10, 2081 (the "Series 2 Notes" and together with the Series 1 Notes, the "Existing Hybrid Notes") to amend the indentures governing the such notes to, among other things, provide for an exchange right to allow the holders of the Existing Hybrid Notes to exchange all outstanding principal amount of their Existing Hybrid Notes for an equal principal amount of a new series of hybrid notes  (the "New Hybrid Notes") having substantially the same terms, including interest rate, interest payment dates, interest reset dates, maturity date and redemption provisions as the Existing Hybrid Notes, as applicable, but excluding provisions of the Existing Hybrid Notes regarding delivery of preferred shares upon the occurrence of certain bankruptcy and related events. The removal of the provisions for delivery of preferred shares upon the occurrence of certain bankruptcy and related events from the Existing Hybrid Notes would ensure that the New Hybrid Notes rank equally in right of payment with the Existing Hybrid Notes upon the occurrence of such events. The terms of the consent solicitation and proposed amendments to the indentures governing the Existing Hybrid Notes will be described in a consent solicitation and proxy statement to be delivered to the registered holders of Existing Hybrid Notes. Keyera reserves the right not to commence the consent solicitation, or terminate, withdraw, extend or modify the terms of the consent solicitation, in its sole discretion.

This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the Notes in any jurisdiction. The Notes being offered have not been approved or disapproved by any regulatory authority. The Notes have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act"), or any state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, United States persons.
