If the bank is a silent partner, that 10% means that the bank owns 10% of the ship, and therefore gets 10% of the profits, until they sell the 10% share. It's possible that the contract with the bank permits Qumel to buy that 10% share back at some later point at a fixed value, in which case, when the appropriate time arrives, they have the option of buying their share back (and most likely, this price has nothing to do with what profit you've made in the interim).
