The Board of KSTB wishes to inform that against the recent slump in crude oil prices at the start of the fourth quarter of 2014 due to supply glut amid fragile recovery of advanced economies, the KSTB Group is cautiously progressing on the growth strategy of its inspection and maintenance services, which entails the expansion of the scope of services rendered as well as the enhancement of its regional growth as mentioned in KSTB’s Circular to Shareholders dated 17 February 2014 (“the Circular”). Accordingly, the timeframe for utilisation of the proceeds earmarked for purchase of equipment and tools and working capital as disclosed in the Circular is extended as detailed in the tabulation above.

The balance amount to be utilised for repayment of borrowings as per item (i) has been allocated for repayment of the RTL Facility as mentioned in the Circular, which has an installment repayment tenure of forty-eight (48) months commencing on 16 July 2014. The extension of timeframe for the utilisation of the balance amount earmarked for repayment of borrowings for a further period as detailed in the table above is necessary to coincide with the monthly repayment schedule of the RTL Facility.

The extension of time for the utilisation of the balance of the proceeds is not subject to any shareholders' or regulatory approvals, and the Board of KSTB is of the opinion that the extension of time for the utilisation of the balance of the proceeds is in the best interest of KSTB.

This announcement is dated 13 March 2015.
