How much cash the owners can actually take out

The distribution figure has already absorbed the docking accrual and the next interest period, rather than being adjusted after approval

The Table, seen from above on the Cabinet floor plan.
Exhibit 1. The Table, at its place in the room.

Cash reaching a vessel-owning company passes through a priority order set by the facility: operating costs, then debt service, then the reserves the loan requires, and only what is left is available to the owners. The order is applied in a spreadsheet per company per quarter, so a distribution can be approved on a balance that has not yet absorbed the docking accrual or the next interest period. If you finance or lease vessels, that is a desk in your own business.

What the work is

An agent applies each company’s own priority order to the period’s cash, deducts debt service and the required reserves in the sequence the facility sets, and produces the distributable amount with every deduction shown in order. Where a reserve is under-funded the distributable figure is reduced rather than annotated. In the Cabinet, ArkOne’s reference design for an executive agent, this is the Board seat: one of ten specialists the room can consult, each a name, a model and a set of instructions rather than a department.

The part of the design carrying the weight here is the table, and the setting that governs it is stated once on the Register.

What it does not do

Whether the owners take the distribution the waterfall permits or leave cash in the company against a weak market ahead, because that is a shareholder decision and not an output of the priority order. That is not a limitation of the software. It is the line the reference design draws on purpose, and a vendor who offers to move it is selling you something else.

What changes

The distribution figure has already absorbed the docking accrual and the next interest period, rather than being adjusted after approval.

Take cash waterfall, distributable cash, debt service into the demonstration and use them without explaining them. A vendor whose agent handles this work already knows those words; one who asks what they mean is showing you a system built for a different trade.

Drag the day. This work is owned by the Board seat, and one hour of it is not the machine's to decide.

Assembly · the Seats

The Seat that owns this work gathers what it needs and drafts. This is the part a demonstration shows you, and it is the part that cannot break anything.

What you have at five: The distribution figure has already absorbed the docking accrual and the next interest period, rather than being adjusted after approval

The hours are a shape, not a schedule. What is fixed is the order: nothing reaches a system you run before the Door, and nothing continues past the wait without a person.
