Capital Product Partners L.P. Announces the Successful Delivery of the LNG Carrier ‘Axios II’
January 4, 2024
ATHENS, GREECE, January 4, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Capital Product Partners L.P. (NASDAQ: CPLP), an international owner of ocean-going vessels, today announced that it successfully took delivery of the LNG Carrier (“LNG/C”) ‘Axios II’.
Pursuant to the agreement to acquire 11 LNG/Cs provided under the Umbrella Agreement entered into on November 13, 2023 (the “Umbrella Agreement”), the Partnership took delivery on January 2, 2024 of LNG/C Axios II (174,000 cbm, latest generation, two stroke MEGA LNG/C, built at Hyundai Heavy Industries Co., Ltd). The vessel commenced a one-year time charter at a market-linked rate, which will be followed by a seven-year bareboat charter with Bonny Gas Transport Limited, who maintain an option to extend by an additional three years.
The vessel acquisition was financed with cash from the balance sheet, a new senior secured loan facility led by ING Bank N.V. for an amount of $190.0 million payable in 28 equal quarterly instalments of $2.5 million, in addition to a balloon payment of $120.0 million payable together with the final quarterly instalment in December 2030, and the deferral of $92.6 million of the purchase price, in accordance with the seller’s credit agreement included in the Umbrella Agreement, maturing on June 30, 2027.
Axios II is the ninth latest generation LNG/C of the Partnership and the second vessel delivery of the fleet acquired under the Umbrella Agreement. The remaining nine vessels are expected to be delivered between the second quarter of 2024 and the first quarter of 2027.
