108 Q-Free has confirmed that a loan agreement has been signed between Export Credit Norway and PT Rin Indonesia Jaya, a subsidiary of PT Inovisi Infracom Tbk, for part financing of the contract signed in 2011 for an electronic law enforcement (ELE) project.  As part of the financing agreement, PT Inovisi Infracom Tbk has signed a parent company guarantee for the loan.

The loan will be released upon initial payment of US$6 million to Q-Free, which will also mark the start-up of the project.  The loan from Export Credit Norway is the majority of the external financing of the project and represents a very important milestone in the progress towards a start-up of the project.

Under the US$169 million contract, Q-Free will deliver roadside infrastructure and tags over a two-year period, and service and maintenance over a five-year period.

The system will be based on Q-Free's tolling solutions and will be used by the Indonesian Police for traffic monitoring in the capital Jakarta (DKI) and surrounding areas (Bodetabek). It will provide a more efficient system for monitoring and control of registered vehicles in Indonesia and improve the efficiency of the local police to enforce stolen vehicles, fake number plates and security related incidents.
