Singapore company briefs: First Ship Lease Trust (FSLT), Koufu, The Trendlines Group, Riverstone Holdings and Advanced Holdings.
First Ship Lease Trust
First Ship Lease Trust said it has commenced legal proceedings to claim damages from the charterer of the chemical tanker vessel FSL London due to delays caused by the charterer’s carriage of a particular cargo destined for India, the resulting investigations of the cargo and the vessel being held by customs.
The memorandum of agreement to sell FSL London to an unaffiliated third party was canceled due to delays in the delivery schedule caused by the customs investigation over the cargo, FSL Trust said in a filing to SGX Monday. The vessel is still being held by local customs authorities in India as investigations are ongoing, the filing said.

Riverstone Holdings
Riverstone Holdings said Monday its wholly owned subsidiary Eco Medi Glove has entered a deal to buy six industrial land parcels of a total of around 18.33 acres located at Kawasan Perindustrian Kamunting in Perak, Malaysia from I-R & D Sdn. Bhd. and I-Berhad for a total MYR17.57 million.
“The acquisition of industrial lands is to support the expansion of production capacity for gloves,” Riverstone Holdings said in a filing to SGX. The consideration was funded via internal resources, the filing said.
Riverstone Holdings is a natural rubber and synthetic rubber glove manufacturer, making healthcare gloves, nitrile gloves, finger cots, face masks and packaging bags.
Advanced Holdings
Advanced Holdings said Monday it entered a non-binding letter of intent (LOI) to sell the property at 30 Woodlands Loop in Singapore, to independent third party Yeo Eng Koon (S) for S$13.2 million.
The four-storey factory building has been underutilized, with the company only using around 54 percent of the property and subletting around 30 percent, resulting in more costs for upkeep than benefits to the group, Advanced Holdings said in a filing to SGX.
Yeo Eng Koon (S) is a commercial kitchen equipment maker, the filing said.
