working on a complete refinancing of the Company's bank-facility and expected
this to be completed within a short period of time. The Company is today pleased
to announce that the new facility is fully committed. Finalization of the
documentation of the loan facility and the subsequent draw-down are expected to
take place within the next weeks. The terms and covenant-structure are in line
