NEWS RELEASE

BH Global's Integration Engineering arm, BOS Offshore & Marine Pte Ltd ('BOS'), signs strategic System Integration Agreement with Danfoss in expediting adoption rate of Marine Hybrid/Full Electric vessel operation in Singapore waters

Singapore, 9 September 2020 - BH Global Corporation Limited ("BH Global""明辉环球企业" or

the "Group"), is pleased to announce that BOS Offshore & Marine Pte Ltd ("BOS"), a 90%-owned subsidiary of the Group, has entered into a System Integration Agreement with Danfoss. The strategic integration partnership between BOS and Danfoss will enhance both companies' sustainability and environmental roadmaps in expediting adoption rate of Marine Hybrid/Full Electric vessel operation in Singapore waters.

  • BOS aspires to be a leader in Singapore maritime industry's drive towards achieving global standards on carbon emission reductions.
  • In April 2018, the International Maritime Organisation ("IMO") laid out its strategy to reduce the shipping industry's total greenhouse gas ("GHG") emissions in 2050 by at least 50% from 2008 levels, and to reduce CO2 emissions per transport work by at least 40% by 2030.

The strategic alliance between BOS and Danfoss started since 2019 when both companies started working together to power Singapore's first plug-inhybrid-electric fast launch vessel in a project where the vessel is being built and owned by major boat builder Penguin International Ltd. Signing of this agreement reaffirms both companies' vision in maritime electrification.

The design, development, construction and delivery of green marine hybrid/full electric vessel includes critical project scopes of system integration, testing and certification of the vessel's hybrid- electric systems and technology. BOS develops our proprietary designed HMI (Human Machine Interface) and control system, which will seamlessly integrate and control the power drivetrain, batteries, and propulsion system in various operating modes.

Danfoss Editron's hybrid-electric drivetrain system comprises of high efficiency synchronous reluctance permanent magnetic motors, inverters and inductors. Such semiconductor grade power electronic devices, when seamlessly integrated with other marine vessel's power management system, hybrid gearbox, battery or ESS (Energy Storage System) as well as BOS's HMI and control system, are the cornerstone to delivering a smart energy efficient micro grid and an intelligent energy management system to maritime users.

Mr. Vincent Lim, Chief Executive Officer of BH Global highlighted that "The System Integration

Engineering solutions by BOS will support Singapore's push for greater adoption of hybrid-electric propulsion systems in its maritime industry. It is in-line with BH Global's transformation roadmap in building a sustainable future through Environmental, Electrification and Digitalisation initiatives."

Commenting on the signing of agreement, Mr. Bryan Koh, Managing Director of BOS emphasized "In our course to deliver both environmentally sustainable and decarbonizing solutions in the marine and offshore sector, we have been relentlessly searching for marine certified high energy efficiency electrification equipment for years. The maritime industry is undergoing a major transformation due to the increase in global digitalization and decarbonization efforts. Today, BOS's Hybrid/Full Electric System Integration of the DANFOSS high efficiency power drivetrain products, offers a supreme decentralized DC power management system to future green marine vessel operations in Singapore water. This strategic partnership will strengthen both companies' collaborations to seize growth opportunities in maritime electrification."

Mr. Manuel Ong, General Manager of Danfoss Singapore Pte Ltd commented "We believe in building our business solutions based on sustainability. Our modular and compact product designs are a critical asset in small marine vessel operation where space and weight are very limited. Our technology also guarantees the highest efficiency. These factors, along with our strong industry track-recordand global presence, is the reason for BOS to engage us on this strategic system integration relationship. Together with BOS's experience in Project Management and System Integration capabilities, both companies are working towards contributing to maritime decarbonization efforts"
