March 12, 2014

HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Mar. 12, 2014-- Exterran Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: EXH) announced today that all of the outstanding 4.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2014 ("Notes") submitted for conversion on or after March 15, 2014 will be settled using the combination method provided in the indenture and supplemental indenture relating to the Notes.

In addition, in connection with Exterran’s previous announcement that its Board of Directors has declared a cash dividend of $0.15 per share of common stock to be paid on March 28, 2014 to stockholders of record at the close of business on March 14, 2014, the conversion rate applicable to the Notes will be adjusted to 43.3606 shares of common stock per $1,000.00 principal amount of the Notes. The conversion rate adjustment became effective immediately after 9 a.m., New York City time, on March 12, 2014, the ex-dividend date for the cash dividend.

Pursuant to the terms of the indenture and supplemental indenture governing the Notes, the Notes become convertible at the holder’s discretion on March 15, 2014 and will remain convertible through the close of business on June 12, 2014, the second scheduled trading day preceding their June 15, 2014 maturity date.

Exterran will satisfy its conversion obligations by delivering to each holder, for each $1,000.00 principal amount of Notes tendered for conversion, the sum of the daily settlement amounts for each of the forty consecutive trading days beginning on and including April 15, 2014 (the forty-second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the June 15, 2014 maturity date), which will consist of: (i) cash in an amount equal to the lesser of (a) $26.056 and (b) the Daily Conversion Value on such trading day; plus (ii) if such Daily Conversion Value on such trading day exceeds $26.056, a number of shares of common stock (together with cash in lieu of any fractional shares) equal to (a) the difference between such Daily Conversion Value and $26.056, divided by (b) the Daily Volume Weighted Average Price on such trading day. The Daily Conversion Value and the Daily Volume Weighted Average Price will be calculated as set forth in the supplemental indenture.

In order to exercise the conversion right with respect to the Notes, a holder of the Notes must complete a Conversion Notice pursuant to Section 4.02 of the supplemental indenture governing the Notes and deliver such notice to the Conversion Agent at the following address for receipt prior to the close of business on June 12, 2014:
