• |
In 2004, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, Sembcorp Financial Services Pte Ltd (“SFS”), established
a S$1.5 billion Multicurrency Multi-Issuer Debt Issuance Programme (the “Programme”). Pursuant to this, the
Company, together with SFS and other certain subsidiaries of the Company (the “Issuing Subsidiaries”), may
from time to time issue debt under the Programme subject to availability of funds from the market. The
obligations of the Issuing Subsidiaries under the notes will be fully guaranteed by the Company.
During the year, SFS issued an inaugural S$200 million 5-year note under the Programme. The principal amount
of the notes bears an interest rate of 5.00% per annum and is due by April, 2014.
|
• |
In 2004, a subsidiary, Sembcorp Marine Ltd (“SCM”) established a S$500 million Multicurrency Multi-Issuer Debt
Issuance Programme (the “Programme”) pursuant to which SCM with its subsidiaries, Jurong Shipyard Pte Ltd
and Sembawang Shipyard Pte Ltd (“Issuing SCM Subsidiaries”), may from time to time issue the notes subject
to availability of funds from the market. The obligations of Issuing SCM Subsidiaries under the notes will be
fully guaranteed by SCM. Subsequent to the year ended December 31, 2009, SCM increased its current MTN
from S$500 million to S$2 billion with the inclusion of SMOE Pte Ltd as one of the Issuing SCM Subsidiaries.
Under the Programme, SCM or any of the Issuing SCM Subsidiaries may from time to time issue notes in series
or tranches in Singapore Dollars and / or any other currency. Such notes are listed on the Singapore Exchange
Securities Trading Limited and are cleared through the Central Depository (Pte) Ltd.
In 2008, the principal amount of the notes issued by SCM amounted to S$150 million and bore an interest rate
of 3.00% per annum. The medium term notes were repaid by SCM in 2009. |

i. |
Arising from the various unauthorised foreign exchange transactions entered into previously by an employee
of a subsidiary of the Company, Sembcorp Marine Ltd (“SCM”), for the account of a subsidiary, Jurong Shipyard
Pte Ltd (“JSPL”), S$43.7 million had been charged to the income statement following the full and final amicable
settlement of BNP Paribas’s claim of S$73.1 million in 2008, strictly on a commercial basis.
Going forward, JSPL intends to recover the S$289.9 million paid to Societe Generale (SG) in 2007 as JSPL’s
position is that the underlying transactions with SG are not valid and binding. If JSPL succeeds in doing so,
there will be an inflow of funds to be recognised in the financial statements at that relevant point in time. |
