Wien (euro adhoc) - *OMV raises EUR 1.5 bn in long-dated Eurobonds at
highly attractive financing terms *OMV announces tender offers for
its 2014 Eurobond as well as its 2014 and 2016 Schuldschein loan
notes to further extend its debt maturity profile

Today, OMV has launched and priced a new EUR 1.5 bn dual tranche
Eurobond transaction. The transaction comprises of a EUR 750 mn 10
year tranche, with a coupon of 2.625% and a maturity date of
September 27, 2022 and a EUR 750 mn 15 year tranche, with a coupon of
3.50% and a maturity date of September 27, 2027. The new bonds were
issued via OMV's EUR 4 bn Euro Medium Term Note Program (EMTN) - a
funding program that allows OMV to issue debt in the Euromarkets on a
regular and continuous basis - and have denominations of EUR 100,000.
The order book was significantly oversubscribed due to the strong
investor demand. OMV has applied for these bonds to be listed in
Luxembourg and Vienna.

In conjunction with the issuance of new Eurobonds, OMV has also
launched tender offers for any and all of its EUR 1 bn 6.250% coupon
Eurobond due in 2014 as well as its EUR 82 mn 5.39% and EUR 101 mn
5.97% Schuldschein loan notes respectively due in 2014 and 2016. The
Eurobond tender offer will expire on September 26, 2012, while the
Schuldschein loan note tender offer will expire on October 1, 2012.

The proceeds of the new Eurobonds will be used for general corporate
purposes, including the funding of the tender offers and repayment of
upcoming maturities.

David C. Davies, Deputy Chairman of the Executive Board and Chief
Financial Officer of OMV, said: "The combined exercise of new
long-dated Eurobonds issues in conjunction with liability management
on upcoming maturities presented a unique opportunity for OMV to lock
in long-term funding at historically attractive rates whilst further
optimizing our debt maturity profile. Furthermore, these transactions
support our strong investment grade credit rating".

Barclays, Erste Group Bank, JP Morgan Securities plc and UniCredit
Bank Austria acted as joint bookrunners on the Eurobond transaction.
Citigroup and Société Générale Corporate & Investment Banking are
acting as Dealer Managers on the 2014 Eurobond tender offer, and
