SES Prices a 144A Bond Offering of $1 billion of Notes in Two Tranches due 2019 and 2044

Luxembourg, 18 March 2104 - SES (NYSE Euronext Paris and Luxembourg Stock Exchange: SESG) today announced the pricing of the Group’s second Yankee bond offering. SES Global Americas Holdings GP (“SES Americas”) has agreed to sell:

$500 million in amount of 2.500% notes due 2019 at a price equal to 99.436% of the principal amount

$500 million in amount of 5.300% notes due 2044 at a price equal to 97.436% of the principal amount.

This transaction is of strategic and long-term importance for SES. The Company is very pleased to have now two established transactions in the largest capital market in the world.

The notes will be senior unsecured obligations of SES Americas and will rank pari passu with all of SES Americas’ other unsecured senior indebtedness. The notes will be unconditionally and irrevocably guaranteed by SES. The guarantee is an unsecured and unsubordinated obligation of SES and will rank pari passu with all of the other present or future unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of SES. The Group intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to refinance existing debt and for general corporate purposes. The issuance of the notes in U.S. dollars also enables SES to diversify its bond investor base and to increase the average maturity of its debt.
