Introduction
|
(A)
|
Until June 2011, SCMP or SCMP I-B, respectively, held 75 % of the partnership interests in each of the KGs and RHKG, UOS and Hartmann Offshore together held 25 % of the partnership interests in each of the KGs. Each of the KGs conducts the business of owning and operating one A.H.T.S. vessel.
|
|
(B)
|
By way of Agreement on Loan Agreements and Transfer of Shares dated 21 June 2011 SCMP has transferred its complete partnership interests in Baltrum KG, in Langeoog KG and in Amrum KG and part of its partnership interest in Wangerooge KG to RHKG and to Hartmann Offshore and holds no more partnership interests in Baltrum KG, in Langeoog KG and Amrum KG and a partnership interest of 36.09 % in Wangerooge KG.
|
|
(C)
|
By letter of 18 November 2011, the General Partner has called for the payment of unpaid capital with a due date for payment on 25 November 2011 as follows:

|
To date, SCMP has not effected payment. Section 4.4 of the partnership agreements of the KGs provides that the General Partner is entitled to agree either on the termination of the partnership with SCMP or decide on its exclusion as limited partner of the KG’s if SCMP does not pay the due amounts after a reminder of 4 weeks.
|
(D)
|
The Parties, i.e. SCMP and SCMP I-B on the one hand and the other limited partners in the KGs plus the General Partner on the other hand are currently negotiating an equitable agreement with a view to overcome the financial difficulties of the KGs and to enable the limited partners in the KGs to restructure their business relationship with one another.
|
|
(E)
|
The Parties had a meeting with Nord/LB on 29 November in Hanover as well as several meetings between representatives of SCMP and RHKG. They also made subsequent telephone calls and are engaged in an e-mail correspondence. The Parties wish to proceed with their negotiations towards an appropriate agreement as per section (D) above and wish to suspend any timelines running under the partnership agreements.

The due date for the capital calls made by the General Partner against SCMP as described in section (C) of the introduction, which has expired on Friday, November 25, 2011, is hereby extended to Tuesday, January 31, 2012. To the extent payments are not affected by the expiration of the extended due date, the General Partner is entitled, based on section 4.4 of the partnership agreements, to decide on the exclusion of SCMP as limited partner of the KGs immediately and without a further reminder.
|
2.
|
