KEY TAKEAWAYS:

- Warranty, performance and completion guarantees.
- Liquidated damages for late completion and bonus for early delivery of plant.
- Significantly de-risks project for shareholders and debt providers.
- Detailed engineering ongoing to determine final fixed contract price.
Detailed engineering has been ongoing since mid-2016 with the work anticipated to be completed during Q2 2017, which will enable the Company to submit its application for German government-backed export credit finance and the total debt package.
Commenting on the fixed price contract, Altech managing director Iggy Tan said, “Reaching conceptual agreement with M+W Group on a fixed price construction contract is a significant de-risking accomplishment for Altech shareholders. The fixed price contract also delivers to debt providers a high level of comfort in terms of total project costs, potential cost overruns and completion delays. This is a great outcome and achievement for the Company”, he said.
