Immediate release

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THE TERMS

OF THE SENIOR FACILITIES

The Safeguard Plan envisages that following the implementation of the Reorganisation, the financial indebtedness of Eurotunnel will be reduced to 4.164 billion euros (excluding the nominal amount of the NRS, which will be treated as quasi-equity), representing a debt reduction of 54% of current indebtedness (which amounted to 9.073 billion euros on 30th September 2006).

Eurotunnel SA and Groupe Eurotunnel SA wish to bring to the attention of the public an update and some additional information on the Senior Facilities described in paragraph 5.3.4 (Financing of Eurotunnel Group) of the Registration Document.

The six loan tranches which constitute the Senior Facilities are denominated either in euros or pounds sterling, with different maturity dates and amortisation start dates depending on the basis on which interest is calculated for each tranche, as described below:

- Financial conditions of the Senior Facilities

For the tranches denominated in pounds sterling

- A tranche A1 loan amounting to 750 million pounds sterling, bearing interest at a fixed rate linked to the UK All Items Retail Price Index inflation index as published by the United Kingdom Office for National Statistics ;

- A tranche B1 loan amounting to 400 million pounds sterling, bearing interest at a fixed rate ;

- A tranche C1 loan, amounting to 350 millions pounds sterling, bearing interest at a floating rate, which will be entirely hedged by a fixed / floating interest rate swap.

Eurotunnel Finance Limited has already purchased interest rate swaptions providing protection against an increase in interest rates: the maximum rate payable by Eurotunnel Finance Limited at the time of drawdown of the loan guaranteed by these swaptions is around 6.6% to 6.7% per annum after taking into account the credit margin.

The equivalent fixed rate at the time of drawdown of the loan will depend upon the prevailing rates and the expected inflation at the time the hedge is finalised

For the tranches denominated in euros

- A tranche A2 loan amounting to 367 million euros, bearing interest at a fixed rate linked to the indice des prix à la consommation hors tabac inflation index as published by l'Institut National de la Statistique et des Etudes Economiques ;

- A tranche B2 loan amounting to 645 million euros, bearing interest at a fixed rate ;

- A tranche C2 loan, amounting to 953 millions euros, bearing interest at a floating rate, which will be entirely hedged by a fixed / floating interest rate swap.

France Manche SA has already purchased interest rate swaptions providing protection against an increase in interest rates: the maximum rate payable by France Manche S.A. at the time of drawdown of the loan guaranteed by these swaptions is around 6.4% to 6.5% per annum after taking into account the credit margin.

The equivalent fixed rate at the time of drawdown of the loan will depend upon the prevailing rates and the expected inflation at the time the hedge is finalised
