The coupon will be guaranteed 100%, independent on the developing of the political situation or policy in Libya for the fully period of 15 years. The economic situation during running time of the new Cement Plant for this period will be guaranteed as well. Therefore, 100% of shares will be submitted to a new to be established project corporation as a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) in Bahrain, hence outside of Libya.

An extendable O&M contract to run the plant by IRD Swiss will be issued and signed between SPV Corp. for Cement and IRD Swiss for the entire loan running period, simultaneously the EPC Contract will be signed. That’s why we think a Coupon value of 9% + CPI yearly, at 15 Years payback is fair enough for the investor! An extendable O&M contract to run the plant by IRD Swiss will be issued and signed between ALHEDAB Cement and IRD Swiss for the entire payback period, simultaneously with the EPC contract.
