* The commercial loan tranche matures earlier of the two dates, with the remaining balancing maturing at the latter date. ** This represents the total loan facilities drawn down by subsidiaries of ICBC which we consider as VIEs. We determined that we are the primary beneficiary of these VIEs, as we are expected to absorb the majority of the VIEs’ losses and residual gains associated with the vessels sold and leased backed from them. Accordingly, these VIEs and their related loan facilities are consolidated in our results.
Schedule of tranches | The facility is divided into three tranches, with the following general terms:
Tranche | Amount | Proportion of facility | Term of loan from date of drawdown | Repayment terms
K-Sure | $449.0 million | 40% | 12 years | Six-monthly installments
KEXIM | $450.0 million | 40% | 12 years | Six-monthly installments
Commercial | $226.0 million | 20% | 5 years | Six-monthly installments, unpaid balance to be refinanced after 5 years
Schedule of line of credit facilities |
Date of drawdown | Vessel | $1.125 billion facility | Amount drawn down
October 2013 | Golar Seal* | $133.2 million | $127.9 million
October 2013 | Golar Celsius | $133.2 million | $128.4 million
May 2014 | Golar Crystal | $133.2 million | $127.9 million
September 2014 | Golar Penguin | $133.2 million | $128.9 million
September 2014 | Golar Bear | $133.2 million | $129.3 million
October 2014 | Golar Frost | $134.8 million | $131.3 million
February 2014 | Golar Igloo** | $161.3 million | $161.3 million
December 2014 | Golar Eskimo*** | $162.8 million | $162.8 million
As at December 2014 |  | $1,125 million | $1,098 million
* In March 2016, we completed the refinancing of the Seal, which provided approximately $50 million excess cash to liquidity. ** In March 2014, we sold the Golar Igloo to Golar Partners. The Golar Igloo debt of $161.3 million was assumed by Golar Partners. *** In December 2014, we entered into a sale and purchase agreement with Golar Partners to sell the companies that own and operate the Golar Eskimo. Therefore, as of December 31, 2014, we classified the Golar Eskimo debt as "Liabilities held-for-sale" in our consolidated balance sheet. In January 2015, we completed the sale of our interests in the companies that own and operate the Golar Eskimo to Golar Partners. The adjusted consideration for the sale was $388.8 million less Golar Partners’ assumption of the Golar Eskimo debt (see note 6).
