Subordinated debt to Sonangol included in other non current liabilities 2 687 0<br />
Under the terms of the back-stop contract between MS Sarah Ltd and Sonangol, Sonangol is obligated to pay a base rate for the vessel for 250 days<br />
per year for 10 years. If, during the annual 250 days, Sonangol is not using the vessel, or the vessel is chartered by a third party at a rate lower than<br />
the base rate, the payments from Sonangol will be recognised as subordinated debt to Sonangol. The Sonangol debt can only be repaid with future<br />
charter hire revenues exceeding the Sonangol base rate. If the Sonangol debt is not repaid within 5 years, Sonangol can convert the debt to equity in<br />
MS Sarah Ltd.<br />
For the 4th quarter of 2009, the Sarah vessel did not work for Sonangol or any other charterer, and as such, all payments from Sonangol were<br />
recognised as debt to Sonangol. Hence, no revenues were recognised in MS Sarah Ltd or in the consolidated Group accounts, even though payments<br />
were made on a monthly basis in accordance with the Sonangol contract.<br />
To provide an overview of the actual MS Sarah Ltd contributions to the Group, the table below shows the Group key figures with MS Sarah Ltd on an<br />
unconsolidated basis (not in accordance with IFRS).<br />
MS Sarah Ltd has USD 93 million of debt to MS Cyprus Holding Ltd. This debt is serviced with LIBOR+8,5% interest and is senior to the Sonangol debt<br />
under the back-stop contract. MS Sarah Ltd also pays management fees to MS UK Ltd and MS AS. The interest income and management fees are<br />
eliminated in the consolidated Group accounts, but included when MS Sarah Ltd is included on an unconsolidated basis.<br />
