EuroChem agreed on a $1.3 billion pre-export finance loan, according to three people with knowledge of the deal.
The five-year facility will pay interest of 180 basis points over LIBOR, the people said. The proceeds will be used to refinance a four-year loan signed in September 2008 and for capital expenditure, including potash projects.
ING Groep was the sole coordinator of the club deal and was joined by 12 banks in syndication.

A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
