Feronia Announces Amendments to 2012 Debentures

TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwired) -- 07/19/17 -- Feronia Inc. ("Feronia" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE: FRN)(TSX VENTURE: FRN.DB) today announces that it has obtained the consent by extraordinary resolution (the "Consent") of the holders of its 2012 12% convertible unsecured subordinated debentures (the "Debentures") to certain amendments (the "Amendments") to the trust indenture entered into between the Company and TSX Trust dated July 24, 2012, as amended and supplemented from time to time (the "Trust Indenture").

The Amendments include reducing the conversion price of the Debentures to $0.275 per share, extending the maturity date until July 24, 2022 and adding a provision that will further adjust the conversion price and effective rate of interest of the Debentures if a subsequent series of debentures or other debt is issued with more favourable terms on or before December 31, 2017. The Company has agreed to pay certain investment advisors a solicitation fee equal to 5% of the aggregate principal amount of Debentures represented by the Consent.

The Amendments are subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

About Feronia Inc.

--  Feronia is an agribusiness operating in the Democratic Republic of the
    Congo (DRC).
--  At the heart of Feronia lies a long established palm oil business,
    Plantations et Huileries du Congo (PHC), which has three remotely
    located plantations; Lokutu, Yaligimba and Boteka.
--  When Feronia acquired its palm oil business from Unilever in 2009, it
    had suffered from years of underinvestment and considerable disruption
    caused by conflict in the DRC. Our initial focus has been on rebuilding
    the business and resuming production to secure its future and the
    livelihoods of the thousands of people it employs.
--  Feronia's plantations produce crude palm oil (CPO) and palm kernel oil
    (PKO). CPO is part of the staple and traditional diet of the Congolese
    and, with our products sold locally in the DRC, we are well placed to
    help decrease reliance on imports and increase food security and
    quality.
--  Feronia prides itself on being the guardian of our 106 year-old palm oil
    business and its employees, communities, and environment. We have a long
    term commitment to improve the living and working environment of our
    employees and their communities and are committed to sustainable
    agriculture, environmental protection and community inclusion. Feronia
    has in place Environmental and Social Management which is focused on
    implementing environmental and social best practice and improving social
    infrastructure.
--  Feronia is working towards certification by the Roundtable for
    Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) and is implementing IFC/World Bank standards
    for environmental and social sustainability. Our oil palm replanting
    programme is brownfield in nature - replacing old palms with new - and
    it has no reliance on deforestation.
