VAUGHAN,
ON, Nov. 29, 2023 /PRNewswire/ - GFL
Environmental Inc. (NYSE: GFL) (TSX: GFL) ("GFL") today announced
that it is planning to commence, subject to market and other
conditions, a private offering of US$700
million in aggregate principal amount of senior secured
notes due 2030 (the "Notes"). GFL intends to use the net proceeds
from the offering of the Notes (the "Notes Offering") to repay
outstanding borrowings under its Term Loan A Facility and a portion
of its Revolving Credit Facility. GFL is opportunistically pursuing
the Notes Offering with a view to moving more of its debt from
floating to fixed interest rates, extending maturities and
providing greater flexibility for future refinancings.
The Notes being offered by GFL in the Notes Offering have not
been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the "Securities Act"), and may not be offered or sold
in the United States absent
registration or an applicable exemption from registration
requirements. The Notes are being offered only to qualified
institutional buyers under Rule 144A and outside the United States in compliance with
Regulation S under the Securities Act. In Canada, the Notes are to be offered and sold
on a private placement basis in certain provinces of Canada.
This release shall not constitute an offer to sell or a
solicitation of an offer to buy any security, nor shall there be
any offer, solicitation or sale of any security in any state or
jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation, or sale would be
unlawful.

Information
This release includes certain "forward-looking statements",
including statements relating to the potential for an offering and

some cases, but not necessarily in all cases, forward-looking
statements can be identified by the use of forward looking
terminology such as "plans", "targets", "expects" or "does not
expect", "is expected", "an opportunity exists", "is positioned",
"estimates", "intends", "assumes", "anticipates" or "does not
anticipate" or "believes", or variations of such words and phrases
or statements that certain actions, events or results "may",
"could", "would", "might", "will" or "will be taken", "occur" or
"be achieved". In addition, any statements that refer to
expectations, projections or other characterizations of future
events or circumstances contain forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements are not historical facts, nor guarantees
or assurances of future performance but instead represent
management's current beliefs, expectations, estimates and
projections regarding future events and operating performance.
Forward-looking statements are necessarily based on a number of
opinions, assumptions and estimates that, while considered
reasonable by GFL as of the date of this release, are subject to
inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that may
differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking
statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to
differ, possibly materially, from those indicated by the

GFL's other periodic filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission and the securities commissions or similar regulatory
authorities in Canada. These
factors are not intended to represent a complete list of the
factors that could affect GFL. However, such risk factors should be
considered carefully. There can be no assurance that such estimates
and assumptions will prove to be correct. You should not place
undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as
of the date of this release. GFL undertakes no obligation to
publicly update any forward-looking statement, except as required
by applicable securities laws.
