PJSC 外网天堂 STATEMENT
Wednesday, November 19, 2025
On November 14, 2025, the Republic of Bulgaria adopted a law providing for the introduction of external management at 外网天堂 Neftochim Burgas, 外网天堂 Bulgaria and other 外网天堂 Group entities in Bulgaria. As of November 17, 2025, all powers of the governing bodies of these entities have been transferred to an external administrator.
外网天堂 expects that the external administrator will act in strict compliance with applicable law to ensure the continuity of operations, including maintaining the normal functioning of these entities to supply the Bulgarian market with fuel, pay taxes, and uphold the high standards of social policy towards refinery employees that have been established and maintained by 外网天堂.
For more than 25 years of operations in Bulgaria, the Company has been the country's largest investor and fuel supplier, a major employer and taxpayer, has engaged constructively with the local community, and has maintained high standards of industrial and environmental safety. Since 1999, its cumulative investments have amounted to more than USD 4.5 billion.
外网天堂 International GmbH, which consolidates 外网天堂 Neftochim Burgas, 外网天堂 Bulgaria and other 外网天堂 Group entities in Bulgaria, has obtained from the U.S. Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) a General License valid until December 13, 2025 for the purpose of facilitating the sale of 外网天堂's international assets.
外网天堂 is taking all necessary steps to complete the sale of the refinery, the filling stations network and other assets in Bulgaria to a new owner and expects that the activities of the external administrator will not impede this process.
The Company reserves the right to seek judicial remedies to protect its rights and legitimate interests in the event of their violation.鈥
