INTRODUCTION

 

Our Board of Directors (“Board”) is pleased to announce that Icon Fleet Sdn Bhd (“IFSB”), our wholly-owned subsidiary, had signed a binding and conditional term sheet (“Term Sheet”) with Zell Transportation Sdn Bhd (“ZELL”) to form a joint venture for the provision of offshore support vessels (“OSV”) to service contracts and operations in Negara Brunei Darussalam (“Brunei”) (“Proposed JVA”).

 

(ICON and ZELL shall collectively be known as the “Parties”)

 

The Term Sheet is legally binding and conditional, and forms the basis for the eventual execution of a joint venture agreement (“JV Agreement”) which will govern the relationship of the Parties.

 

The Proposed JVA will be consummated through Icon Bahtera (B) Sdn Bhd (“IBSB”). IBSB is currently our wholly owned subsidiary with limited liability incorporated in Brunei. Please refer to the para “Shareholding of IBSB” below for further details on shareholdings of IBSB following the completion of the Proposed JVA.

ZELL is a company with limited liability incorporated in Brunei and is involved in the business of vessel chartering. ZELL is a 100% Bumiputera company of Brunei and is registered with Brunei Shell Petroleum (“BSP”).

 

 

BACKGROUND

 

As per our announcement on 8 August 2014, we had through our wholly owned subsidiary, Icon Kayra (L) Inc. (“IKLI”), completed the acquisition of one accommodation work boat known as SK Line 600 (“Vessel”) from Nam Cheong International Ltd. Pursuant to the Proposed JVA, the Vessel will be transferred to IBSB. A memorandum of agreement (“MOA”) between IKLI and IBSB will later be executed to administer the transfer of the Vessel; and

 

The Proposed JVA will also require IBSB to procure financing from a licensed financial institution to complete the acquisition of the Vessel from IKLI (“Vessel Financing”). As per our announcement on 8 August 2014, the proceeds from the acquisition will be channelled to the expansion of our fleet based on the identified four (4) vessels described in the Prospectus.

 

As per our announcement on the even date, IBSB had also entered into an agreement to charter the Vessel to ZELL, with BSP as the end customer (“Charter Contract”). IBSB will temporarily charter the Vessel from IKLI to service the Charter Contract until the completion of the Proposed JVA. The contract is for a firm period of five (5) years with an option to extend the hire by a further two (2) years.
