the ordinary course of business.<br />

As of the Latest Practicable Date, all payments under these two contracts have been fully settled.<br />

Our Directors believe that the above transactions were carried out on an arm’s length basis and based on<br />

normal commercial terms and market prices. We do not intend to enter into any future transactions of the<br />

above nature with Tinjar Transport.<br />

Inter-company Balances Between Us and Certain Interested Persons<br />

During the Period under Review, certain Interested Persons, namely Sanwa, Yawson, Eurebon, Samling<br />

Singapore and Samling International, paid for certain purchases of raw materials for our shipbuilding activities<br />

on our behalf and made advances to our Company to fund our working capital requirements. These payments<br />

and advances resulted in amounts due from us to these Interested Persons. On occasion we paid certain<br />

expenses on behalf of these Interested Persons, and these payments partially offset the amounts due from us to<br />

these Interested Persons. In addition, Yawson and Eurebon were engaged in owning and chartering of vessels<br />

to third parties. As Sanwa, Yawson, Eurebon, Samling Singapore, Samling International and we were all<br />

controlled by the Yaw Family during this time, we regularly received funding from or extended funding to<br />

these entities.<br />

These amounts due from us to these entities and payments made by us on behalf of these entities, resulted<br />

in net inter-company balances due from us to these entities. On 31 December 2006, these amounts due from<br />

us to these Interested Persons were consolidated under Brizill International. See “— Present and Ongoing<br />

Interested Person Transactions — Inter-company Balances Between Us and Brizill International, Advances to<br />

Us from Brizill International and the Brizill Term Loan”. In view of the proposed listing of our Company,<br />

these entities have ceased to engage in activities similar to those of our Group in order to avoid any potential<br />

conflict of interests.<br />

These advances and inter-company balances were unsecured and non-interest-bearing and had no fixed<br />

term of repayment.<br />

The details of the net inter-company balances with each of these Interested Persons during the Period<br />

under Review are as follows (see also “— Present and Ongoing Interested Person Transactions — Intercompany<br />

Balances Between Us and Brizill International, Advances to Us from Brizill International and the<br />

Brizill Term Loan”):<br />

Our Directors believe that these payments and advances were not made on an arm’s length basis, as<br />

neither the Interested Persons mentioned above nor our Group (as the case may be) received any benefit under<br />

such arrangements.<br />

In view of the proposed listing of our Company on the <strong>SGX</strong>-ST, and by 1 January 2007, we had ceased<br />

the above practices in relation to these Interested Persons, save as disclosed in the section “— Present and<br />
