8Project Structuring Considerations
Total amount of US$500m assumed based on 70% gearing ratio and total Project Costs of US$715m
Tenor and funding costs are optimised through ECA cover, especially given country background and long-term funding
requirement for the Project
Given a Chinese EPC contractor, debt raising from Chinese investors with cover from Sinosure
Maximum insured amount under Sinosure cover is 85% of EPC contract value (i.e. US$382.5m), potentially can be
extended to non-EPC project costs. The cover is typically for:
95% political risk insurance
50% commercial insurance
Sinosure covered debt portion provided by ICBC and SB
Raise uncovered/clean portion (i.e. US$117.5m) from SB and other local/regional/international investors, including DFIs
Local project content and also EU project content, both of which may qualify up to a certain percentage as project costs
and therefore eligible for ECA cover.

Case Study: Morupule B Power Plant, Botswana
Standard Bank and ICBC financed the power station
expansion for US$825 m over a 20 year tenor
ICBC provided the 20 year loan of US$825 m, which is
guaranteed by SINOSURE for 15 years with the remaining
years 16-20 guaranteed by the World Bank. Both guarantees
will cover commercial and political risk
The extent of funding was possible because of the Chinese
participation and the Sovereign Government Guarantee,
through the Botswana Ministry of Finance
Standard Bank provided a cross-currency swap to convert
US$ funding into fixed rate synthetic Botswana Pula funding,
thus minimising BPC’s exposure to adverse movements in
foreign exchange rates and interest rates

Transaction OverviewStandard Bank Involvement
This fully underwritten financing package was established in
the 3rd/4th quarter of 2008, when the credit crisis reached its
peak
The funding solution proposed provided a one-stop funding
solution to the client, almost unheard of in the lending climate
at the time
Standard Bank local knowledge, when combined with the
considerable lending capability of our strategic partner ICBC
and the political risk mitigation capability for SINOSURE,
provided the client with a funding solution that few financial
institutions could offer
Highlights
The US$1.6 b Morupule coal power station is part of
Botswana's (through the state utility Botswana Power
Corporation (“BPC”)) strategy to secure power supply by
expanding existing generating capacity as well as improving
the southern African country's self-reliance
The primary requirement of BPC was to ensure that, to the
greatest extent possible, local currency funding was secured
as BPC sells power to its customers in BWP. The funding
solution provided by Standard Bank, ICBC, SINOSURE and
World Bank provided the liquidity and currency risk mitigation
to ensure that BPC’s primary objective will be achieved
