The trust is in discussions with HSH Nordbank on forgiveness on its existing loans but said the bank had not so far accepted any specific proposal.
“Further, HSH has granted the Trust until 15th April 2017 to present a concept that ensures a higher level of total recoveries than under a Trust winding-up scenario,” Rickmers Trust Management said in a statement to the Singapore Exchange.
