Article II

WARRANTS

Section 2.01. Form.

(a) Warrants Certificates. Warrants shall be issued in the form of definitive Warrant with a securities legend in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit A hereto, which shall be prepared by the Company from time to time as payment of the Redemption Price for Excess Shares duly redeemed by the Company in accordance with Section 6.6 of Article VI of the Charter, and which shall be duly executed by the Company and countersigned, by either manual or facsimile signature, by the Warrant Agent as hereinafter provided.

(b) [Reserved.]

(d) Warrant Certificates. Warrant Certificates shall be in substantially the form attached as Exhibit A hereto and shall be typed, printed, lithographed or engraved or produced by any combination of such methods or produced in any other manner permitted by the rules of any securities exchange on which the Warrants may be listed, all as determined by the Officer or Officers executing such Warrant Certificates, as evidenced by their execution thereof. Any Warrant Certificate shall have such insertions as are appropriate or required or permitted by this Agreement and may have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification and such legends and endorsements, stamped, printed, lithographed or engraved thereon, (i) as the Company (or, with respect to letters, numbers or other marks of identification, the Warrant Agent) may deem appropriate and as are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement, (ii) as may be required to comply with this Agreement, any law or any rule of any securities exchange on which the Warrants may be listed, and (iii) as may be necessary to conform to customary usage, provided that they do not affect the rights, duties, liabilities, responsibilities, obligations or indemnitees of the Warrant Agent.

Section 2.02. Execution and Countersignature.

At least one Officer shall sign each Warrant Certificate for the Company by manual or facsimile signature.

If an Officer whose signature is on a Warrant Certificate no longer holds that office at the time the Warrant Agent countersigns the Warrant Certificate, the Warrants evidenced by such Warrant Certificate shall be valid nevertheless.

Upon receipt of a written order of the Company signed by at least one Officer of the Company (and, with respect to Warrants issued by the Company after the date hereof, all other necessary information and documents, including if requested by the Warrant Agent an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel of the Company), the Warrant Agent shall countersign, by either manual or facsimile signature, and deliver Warrant Certificates entitling the Warrantholders thereof to purchase in the aggregate such number of shares of Common Stock as shall be set forth on such Warrant Certificates (subject to adjustment as provided in such Warrant Certificates) in accordance with such order of the Company. Each Warrantholder shall be bound by all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement (a copy of which is available on request to the Secretary of the Company) and any amendments thereto and the Warrant Certificate, in each case, as fully and effectively as if such Warrantholder had signed the same. Each Warrant Certificate shall be dated the date of its countersignature by the Warrant Agent.

At any time and from time to time after the execution of this Agreement, the Warrant Agent shall, upon receipt of a written order of the Company signed by an Officer of the Company, countersign, by either manual or facsimile signature, a Warrant Certificate evidencing the number of Warrants specified in such order. Such order shall specify the number of Warrants to be evidenced on the Warrant Certificate to be countersigned, the date on which such Warrant Certificate is to be countersigned and the number of Warrants then authorized.

The Warrants evidenced by a Warrant Certificate shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Warrant Agent countersigns the Warrant Certificate either manually or by facsimile signature. Such signature shall be solely for the purpose of authenticating the Warrant Certificate and shall be conclusive evidence that the Warrant Certificate so countersigned has been duly authenticated and issued under this Agreement.

Section 2.03. Registry.

The Warrants shall be issued in registered form only. The Warrant Agent shall keep a registry (the “Registry”) of the Warrant Certificates and of their transfer and exchange. The Registry shall show the names and addresses of the respective Warrantholders and the date and number of Warrants evidenced on the face of each of the Warrant Certificates.

Except as otherwise provided herein or in the Warrant Certificate, the Company and the Warrant Agent may deem and treat any Person in whose name a Warrant Certificate is registered in the Registry as the absolute owner of such Warrant Certificate for all purposes whatsoever and neither the Company nor the Warrant Agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary; provided, however, that the Warrant Agent may rely conclusively on any written notice provided to it by the Company and signed by an Officer of the Company.

Section 2.04. Transfer and Exchange.

(a) Transfer and Exchange of Warrants.

(i) Registration of the transfer and exchange of Warrants shall be effected by presentation of the physical Warrant Certificate in accordance with this Agreement and the Warrant Certificate and the procedures of the Warrant Agent therefor. A transferor of a Warrant shall surrender the Warrant Certificate to the Warrant Agent and shall deliver to the Warrant Agent an instruction of transfer in form satisfactory to the Warrant Agent which shall be duly executed by the Warrantholder thereof or by his attorney, duly authorized in writing and shall specify in writing the number of Warrants to be transferred and the Person or Persons to whom such Warrants are to be transferred. Additionally, prior to the Warrantholder registering the transfer or making the exchange as requested, the requirements for such transfer or exchange to be issued in a name other than the registered Warrantholder shall be met. Such requirements for a transfer of the Warrant may include, inter alia, a medallion signature guarantee from an eligible guarantor institution participating in a signature guarantee program approved by the Securities Transfer Association (at a guarantee level acceptable to the Warrant Agent), and any other reasonable evidence of authority that may be required by the Warrant Agent. Upon satisfaction of the conditions in this Clause (i) of Section 2.04(a), the Warrant Agent shall reflect such transfer in the Registry and the surrendered Warrant Certificate shall be cancelled by the Warrant Agent.

(b) Obligations with Respect to Transfers and Exchanges of Warrants.

(i) To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall execute and the Warrant Agent shall countersign, by either manual or facsimile signature, Warrant Certificates as required pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.02 and this Section 2.04.

(ii) No service charge shall be made to a Warrantholder for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, assessments or similar charges payable in connection therewith. The Warrant Agent shall not be obligated to take any action whatsoever with respect to any such registration of transfer or exchange until it is satisfied that all such taxes, assessments or similar charges have been satisfied in full.

(iii) All Warrants issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be the valid obligations of the Company, entitled to the same benefits under this Agreement as the Warrants surrendered upon such registration for transfer or exchange.

(iv) No Warrants or shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of any Warrant shall be sold, exchanged or otherwise transferred by the Company or any Warrantholder in violation of the Securities Act or state securities laws.

Section 2.05. No Obligation to Fiduciary.

Neither the Company nor the Warrant Agent will be liable or responsible for any registration or transfer of any Warrants that are registered or to be registered in the name of a fiduciary or the nominee of a fiduciary.

Section 2.06. Replacement Certificates.

If a mutilated Warrant Certificate is surrendered to the Warrant Agent or if the Warrantholder of a Warrant Certificate provides proof reasonably satisfactory to the Company that the Warrant Certificate has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Company shall issue and the Warrant Agent shall countersign, by either manual or facsimile signature, a replacement Warrant Certificate of like tenor and representing an equivalent number of Warrants, if the reasonable requirements of the Warrant Agent and of Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of New York are met. If required by the Warrant Agent or the Company, such Warrantholder shall furnish an indemnity bond sufficient in the reasonable judgment of the Company and the Warrant Agent to protect the Company and the Warrant Agent from any loss that either of them may suffer for a Warrant Certificate replaced for loss, destruction or theft. The Company and the Warrant Agent may charge the Warrantholder for their expenses in replacing a Warrant Certificate. Every replacement Warrant Certificate evidences an additional obligation of the Company.

Section 2.07. Outstanding Warrants.

The Warrants outstanding at any time are all Warrants evidenced on all Warrant Certificates authenticated by the Warrant Agent except for those canceled by it and those delivered to it for cancellation. A Warrant ceases to be outstanding if the Company holds the Warrant.

If a Warrant Certificate has been replaced pursuant to Section 2.06, the Warrants evidenced thereby cease to be outstanding unless the Warrant Agent and the Company receive proof satisfactory to them that the replaced Warrant Certificate is held by a bona fide purchaser.

Section 2.08. Cancellation.

In the event the Company shall purchase or otherwise acquire Warrants, the same shall thereupon be delivered to the Warrant Agent for cancellation.

The Warrant Agent (and no one else) shall cancel and dispose of all Warrant Certificates surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, replacement, exercise or cancellation in the Warrant Agent’s customary manner and, unless the Company directs the Warrant Agent to deliver canceled Warrant Certificates to the Company, deliver a certificate of such disposal to the Company upon the Company’s request therefor. The Company may not issue new Warrant Certificates to replace Warrant Certificates to the extent such new Warrants Certificates would evidence Warrants that have been exercised or Warrants that the Company has purchased or otherwise acquired.

Section 2.09. CUSIP Numbers.

The Company in issuing the Warrants may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use) and, if so, the Warrant Agent, if provided with such “CUSIP” numbers, shall use “CUSIP” numbers in notices as a convenience to Warrantholders; provided, however, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Warrant Certificates or as contained in any notice and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Warrant Certificates.

Section 2.10. Transfer Restrictions.

(a) By its acceptance of any Warrant bearing the Restricted Securities Legend (or any beneficial interest in such a Warrant), each Warrantholder thereof and each owner of a beneficial interest therein acknowledges the restrictions on transfer of such Warrant (and any such beneficial interest) set forth in this Agreement and in the Restricted Securities Legend and agrees that it will transfer such Warrant (and any such beneficial interest) only in accordance with the Agreement and such legend.

(b) The transfer or exchange of any Warrant (or a beneficial interest therein) may only be made in accordance with this Section 2.10 and the other provisions of Article II and, in the case of a Warrant Certificate (or a beneficial interest therein), the applicable rules and procedures of the Warrant Agent. The Warrant Agent shall refuse to register any requested transfer or exchange that it reasonably believes does not comply with the preceding sentence.

(c) Subject to paragraph (b), the transfer or exchange of any Warrant (or a beneficial interest therein), the Person requesting the transfer or exchange must deliver or cause to be delivered to the Warrant Agent an Opinion of Counsel and such other certifications and evidence as the Company may reasonably require in order to determine that the proposed transfer or exchange is being made in compliance with the Securities Act and any applicable securities laws of any state of the United States.

(d) No certification is required in connection with any transfer or exchange of any Warrant (or a beneficial interest therein) or for transfers of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise thereof:

(i) after such Warrant or Share is eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or a successor provision) without the need to satisfy current information or other requirements therein; provided that the Company has provided the Warrant Agent with an Officers’ Certificate to that effect, and the Company may require from any Person requesting a transfer or exchange in reliance upon this Clause (i) of Section 2.10(e) an opinion of counsel and any other reasonable certifications and evidence in order to support such certificate; or

(ii) sold pursuant to an effective registration statement.

Any Unrestricted Warrant delivered in reliance upon this paragraph will not bear the Restricted Securities Legend.

(e) The provisions of this Section 2.10 shall not apply to the exercise of any Warrant to the extent Shares issued upon such exercise (and any unexercised portion of the Warrant so exercised) shall be issued to the same registered Warrantholder that exercised such Warrant; provided, subject to other documentation requirements, if any such Warrant bears the Restricted Securities Legend but could be exchanged at the time of such exercise for an Unrestricted Warrant, the Shares issued upon exercise need not bear the Restricted Securities Legend.

(f) The Warrant Agent shall retain copies of all certificates, opinions and other documents received in connection with the transfer or exchange of a Warrant (or a beneficial interest therein), for a period of no less than as required by law or the Warrant Agent’s customary internal procedures, and during such period the Company has the right to inspect and make copies thereof at any reasonable time upon written notice to the Warrant Agent.

(g) With respect to any Warrants bearing a Restricted Securities Legend on the date of exercise, the shares of Common Stock distributed upon exercise will be issued in physical certificated form (unless, at the option of the Company, such shares can be held directly by the transfer agent in book-entry form in a segregated manner) and shall be treated as “restricted securities,” and the Company will affix the applicable “restricted securities” legend upon such shares of Common Stock; provided that if any such Common Stock is being immediately resold pursuant to Rule 144 and appropriate and customary evidence thereof and opinions and certificates have been delivered to the Company, such shares need not be issued with such legend in connection with such sale. Furthermore, in connection with the transfer or exchange of Shares issued upon the exercise of any Warrant, which bears a “restricted securities” legend, the person requesting the transfer or exchange must deliver or cause to be delivered to the Transfer Agent a Transfer Certificate for Transfer of Restricted Common Stock, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B.

Article III

EXERCISE TERMS

Section 3.01. Exercise.

The Exercise Price of each Warrant, the Warrant Share Number and the number of Warrants evidenced by any Warrant Certificate and the Expiration Date of each Warrant shall be set forth in the related Warrant Certificate. The Warrant Share Number and the Exercise Price of each Warrant are subject to adjustment pursuant to the terms set forth in the Warrant Certificate. The Company shall calculate and transmit to the Warrant Agent, and the Warrant Agent shall have no obligation under this Agreement to calculate, the number of shares of Common Stock or other securities or other consideration to be issued or paid any upon such exercise, and the Warrant Agent shall have no duty or obligation to investigate or confirm whether any such determination made by the Company is accurate or correct.

Section 3.02. Manner of Exercise and Issuance of Shares.

Warrants may be exercised in the manner set forth in Section 3 of the Warrant Certificate, and upon any such exercise, Shares shall be issued in the manner set forth in Section 4 of the Warrant Certificate.

Section 3.03. Compliance with U.S. Maritime Laws.

Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Warrant Agreement, in order to facilitate the Company’s compliance with the U.S. Maritime Laws limiting the ownership of the Common Stock by Non-U.S. Citizens so that it may operate vessels in the coastwise trade of the United States and comply with obligations of the Company under any contracts that it may enter into from time to time with the United States Government:

(a) At the time of exercise or conversion of any Warrant, the Warrantholder or Warrantholder Designee shall advise the Company whether or not it is a U.S. Citizen. In connection with the exercise of any Warrant, the Company may in good faith require the Warrantholder or Warrantholder Designee to provide the Company with such documents and other information as it may reasonably request to confirm that the Warrantholder or Warrantholder Designee is a U.S. Citizen.

(b) Any sale, transfer or other disposition of any Warrant by any Warrantholder that is a Non-U.S. Citizen to a Person who is a U.S. Citizen must be a complete transfer of such Warrantholder’s interests in such Warrant and the Shares issuable upon its exercise or conversion to such Person with the transferor retaining no ability to direct or control such Person. The foregoing restriction shall also apply to any Warrantholder Designee or other Person that the Warrantholder has designated to receive the Shares issuable upon exercise or conversion of any Warrant.

(c) If at any time, the Company either ceases to be a reporting company under the Exchange Act, or fails to timely file any amendments to its Charter as required by the Exchange Act, the Company shall provide the Warrant Agent with the then current copy of the Charter or (at the Company’s option) an excerpt from the Charter containing the then current version of Article VI (“Compliance with U.S. Maritime Laws”) and upon the request of any Warrantholder, the Warrant Agent shall provide such copy or excerpt to such Warrantholder; provided, that, in each case, the Company and/or the Warrant Agent shall be obligated to provide such copy or excerpt only (i) following amendments to such Article and (ii) to the extent such copy or excerpt is not (or will not be) publicly filed or otherwise made available in a format such that Warrantholders can rely on the publicly available copy as the then most current copy or excerpt.

(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event the U.S. Maritime Laws are repealed or amended so that the ownership of Common Stock by Non-U.S. Citizens is no longer restricted in any way, the provisions of this Section 3.03 shall no longer apply to any Warrantholder or Warrant.

Section 3.04. Covenants.

(a) The Warrant Agent is hereby authorized to requisition from time to time from any stock transfer agents of the Company stock certificates required to honor outstanding Warrants upon exercise thereof in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and the Company hereby authorizes and directs such transfer agents to comply with all such requests of the Warrant Agent. The Company shall supply such transfer agents with duly executed stock certificates for such purposes and shall provide or otherwise make available any cash or scrip that may be payable upon exercise of Warrants as provided herein and in each Warrant Certificate.

(b) Reserved.

(d) The Company agrees that, for so long as any Warrants are outstanding, it shall not increase the par value of the Common Stock or amend or modify the Charter or its by-laws in a manner that would prevent the Company from issuing the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants.

(e) The Company agrees that it will (i) at all times make and keep available adequate current public information with respect to the Company as those terms are understood and defined for purposes of Rule 144(c) under the Securities Act; (ii) so long as a Warrantholder owns any Warrant, furnish to such Warrantholder, upon request, a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and such other reports and documents so filed as such Warrantholder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission allowing the Warrantholder to sell any such Warrant without registration; and (iii) make available information otherwise necessary to comply with Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, as such rules may be amended from time to time, if available with respect to resales of the Warrants, at all times, to the extent required from time to time to enable such Warrantholders to sell Warrants without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (if available with respect to resales of the Warrants), as such rules may be amended from time to time or replaced. Upon the reasonable request of any Warrantholder, the Company will deliver to such Warrantholder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such information requirements.

Article IV

ANTIDILUTION PROVISIONS

Section 4.01. Antidilution Adjustments; Notice of Adjustment.

The Warrant Share Number shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in Section 12 of the Warrant Certificate. Whenever the Warrant Share Number is so adjusted or is proposed to be adjusted as provided in Section 12 of the Warrant Certificate, the Company shall deliver to the Warrant Agent the notices or statements, and shall cause a copy of such notices or statements to be sent or communicated to each Warrantholder pursuant to Section 6.03, as provided in Section 12(F) of the Warrant Certificate. Until such notices or statements are received by the Warrant Agent, the Warrant Agent may presume conclusively for all purposes that no such adjustment has occurred.

Section 4.02. Adjustment to Warrant Certificate.

The form of Warrant Certificate need not be changed because of any adjustment made pursuant to the Warrant Certificate, and Warrant Certificates issued after such adjustment may state the same Exercise Price and the same Warrant Share Number as are stated in the Warrant Certificates initially issued pursuant to this Agreement.

The Company, however, may at any time in its sole discretion make any change in the form of Warrant Certificate that it may deem appropriate to give effect to such adjustments and that does not affect the substance of the Warrant Certificate (or affect the rights, duties, responsibilities, obligations, liabilities or indemnitees of the Warrant Agent), and any Warrant Certificate thereafter issued or countersigned, whether in exchange or substitution for an outstanding Warrant Certificate or otherwise, may be in the form as so changed.

Article V

WARRANT AGENT

Section 5.01. Appointment of Warrant Agent.

The Company hereby appoints the Warrant Agent to act as agent for the Company in accordance with the express provisions of this Agreement (and no implied terms or conditions) and the Warrant Agent hereby accepts such appointment. The Warrant Agent shall not be liable for anything that it may do or refrain from doing in connection with this Agreement, except in the case of a judicial determination of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct by a court of competent jurisdiction.

Section 5.02. Rights and Duties of Warrant Agent.

(a) Agent for the Company. In acting under this Warrant Agreement and in connection with the Warrant Certificates, the Warrant Agent is acting solely as agent of the Company and does not assume any obligation or relationship of agency or trust for or with any of the holders of Warrant Certificates or beneficial owners of Warrants.

(b) Counsel. The Warrant Agent may consult with counsel of its own selection (who may be counsel to the Company or an employee of the Warrant Agent), and the advice or opinion of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in the absence of bad faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel.

(c) Documents. The Warrant Agent shall be fully protected, may conclusively rely upon and shall incur no liability for or in respect of any action taken or thing suffered by it in reliance upon any Warrant Certificate, notice, instruction, direction, consent, certificate, affidavit, statement, request or other paper or document reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been presented or signed by the proper parties, and shall have no duty to inquire into or investigate the validity, accuracy or content thereof. The Warrant Agent shall not take any instructions or directions except those given in accordance with this Agreement.

(d) No Implied Obligations. The Warrant Agent shall be obligated to perform only such duties as are specifically set forth herein (or in any modification or amendment hereof to which the Warrant Agent has consented to in writing) and in the Warrant Certificates, and no implied or inferred duties or obligations of the Warrant Agent shall be read into this Agreement (or in any modification or amendment hereof to which the Warrant Agent has consented to in writing) or the Warrant Certificates against the Warrant Agent.

The Warrant Agent shall not be under any obligation to take any action hereunder that it reasonably believes may involve it in any expense or liability for which it does not receive indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it. The Warrant Agent shall not be accountable or under any duty or responsibility for the use by the Company of any of the Warrant Certificates countersigned by the Warrant Agent and delivered by it to the Warrantholders or on behalf of the Warrantholders pursuant to this Agreement or for the application by the Company of the proceeds of the Warrants. The Warrant Agent shall have no duty or responsibility in case of any default by the Company in the performance of its covenants or agreements contained herein or in the Warrant Certificates or in the case of the receipt of any written demand from a Warrantholder with respect to such default, including any duty or responsibility to initiate or attempt to initiate any proceedings at law or otherwise.

The Warrant Agent may execute any of the powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys, and the Warrant Agent will not be answerable or accountable for any act, default, neglect or misconduct of such agents or attorneys or for any loss to the Company resulting from such neglect or misconduct; provided that the Warrant Agent acted without gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith in connection with the selection of such agents or attorneys and the Warrant Agent reasonably believed it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon the Warrant Agent by this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall the Warrant Agent be responsible or liable for special, punitive, incidental, indirect, or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Warrant Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

This certifies that, for value received, [●], and any of its registered assigns, is the registered owner of the number of Warrants set forth on Schedule A hereto, each of which entitles the Warrantholder to purchase from the Company, upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth, a number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of the Company’s Common Stock (each a “Share” and collectively the “Shares”) equal to the Warrant Share Number at a purchase price per share equal to the Exercise Price. The Warrant Share Number is subject to adjustment as provided herein, and all references to “Warrant Share Number” herein shall be deemed to include any such adjustment or series of adjustments.

3. Exercise of Warrant; Term; Exchange. Subject to Sections 2 and 21 and pursuant to the provisions in Article VI (Compliance with U.S. Maritime Laws) of the Company’s Charter, and the policies adopted by the Board of Directors as provided therein:

(A) Subject to the Warrant exercise restrictions on Non-U.S. Citizen Warrantholders contained in Section 3(B), any Warrantholder may exercise all or a portion of the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate at any time or from time to time on any Business Day after the execution and delivery of this Warrant Certificate by the Company on the date hereof, but in no event later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Expiration Date, unless the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that at the time of conversion of the Warrant that the Shares deliverable upon exercise of the Warrant would constitute Excess Shares. (For the avoidance of doubt, Warrantholders that have been determined by the Company to be U.S. Citizens are not subject to the restrictions on exercise or conversion of Warrants by Non-U.S. Citizens set forth in Sections 3(B) and 3(D) and may exercise their Warrants in accordance with Section 3(N).) Whenever some but not all of the Warrants represented by such Warrant Certificate are exercised in accordance with the terms thereof and of the Warrant Agreement, the Warrantholder shall be entitled, at the request of such Warrantholder, to receive from the Company within a reasonable time, not to exceed ten (10) Business Days, a new Warrant Certificate in substantially identical form for the number of Warrants equal to the number of Warrants theretofore represented by such Warrant Certificate less the number of Warrants then-exercised.

(B) In the case where any Warrantholder or its Warrantholder Designee is a Non-U.S. Citizen or cannot establish to the Company’s reasonable satisfaction that it is a U.S. Citizen, such Warrantholder may not exercise or convert any Warrant it has requested to exercise or convert (i) for so long as (x) any New Noteholder Warrants are outstanding and are not the subject of a request by the holder thereof to delay conversion and (y) any Existing Equity Warrants are the subject of an outstanding exercise notice submitted by a Non-U.S. Citizen and (ii) thereafter only through the automatic conversion procedure set forth in Section 3(D) below.

(C) In order to facilitate the Company’s compliance with the U.S. Maritime Laws limiting the ownership of the Common Stock by Non-U.S. Citizens so that the Company may operate vessels in the coastwise trade of the United States and comply with obligations of the Company under any contracts that it may enter into from time to time with the United States Government, at the time of exercise or conversion of any Warrant, the Warrantholder or Warrantholder Designee shall advise the Company whether or not it is a U.S. Citizen. In connection with the exercise of any Warrant, the Company may in good faith require the Warrantholder or Warrantholder Designee to provide the Company with such documents and other information as it may reasonably request to confirm that the Warrantholder or Warrantholder Designee is a U.S. Citizen.

(D) Subject to Section 3(B)(i) hereof, beginning with the end of the first full calendar quarter following the execution and delivery of this Warrant by the Company and, for so long as this Warrant is outstanding, the Company shall determine, in its sole discretion, at least quarterly whether on each February 28, May 31, August 31 and November 30 thereafter (each an “Automatic Conversion Date”), the Shares deliverable upon exercise of the then outstanding Warrants held by Non-U.S. Citizens would constitute Excess Shares if they were issued. If any Automatic Conversion Date falls on any day that is not a Business Day, then the next Business Day shall be used and such Business Day shall constitute the Automatic Conversion Date for the applicable quarter. If the Company has so determined that a certain number of Shares deliverable upon exercise of the then outstanding Warrants held by Non-U.S. Citizens would not constitute Excess Shares on the applicable Automatic Conversion Date, this Warrant shall automatically be deemed to be exercised in full, without delivery of the Notice of Exercise or any action by the Warrantholder, to the extent that (i) the Warrantholder has not delivered prior written notice to the Company opting out of such exercise, in full or in part, and (ii) such exercise will not, as determined by the Company, result in Excess Shares after giving effect to such conversion. The Company shall effect the automatic conversion of (and the Warrantholder shall be deemed to have elected to convert) such amount of outstanding Warrants held by Non-U.S. Citizens (without any action by any such Non-U.S. Citizen) into the total number of Shares that the Company has so determined may be issued on the applicable Automatic Conversion Date without causing Excess Shares to be issued. Payment of the Exercise Price for the Shares thereby purchased shall be made by having the Company withhold (and the Warrantholder shall be deemed to have so requested), from the number of Shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be delivered to such Warrantholder upon such exercise, the number of Shares equal in value to the aggregate Exercise Price as to all Shares the Company would otherwise be obligated to deliver, based on the closing Market Price of the Common Stock on the trading day preceding the day the Warrant will be converted to Shares by the Company pursuant to this Section 3(D). Warrants held by Non-U.S. Citizens shall be selected for conversion on a first in, first out basis and on a pro rata basis among Warrants with the same issue date, as determined by the Company, in its sole discretion, to be calculated based solely on the number of outstanding Warrants at the time of such conversion less (i) any Warrants whose conversion would result in Excess Shares and (ii) any Warrants for which a written notice has been duly delivered opting out of such conversion. Following a conversion pursuant to this Section 3(D) and upon the delivery of the Shares of Common Stock, the number of Shares issuable pursuant to Warrants held by each Warrantholder shall be reduced automatically by the number of Shares of Common Stock actually issued to each such Warrantholder pursuant to such conversion; and, for the avoidance of doubt, any such Warrants so converted into Shares shall no longer be deemed outstanding.

(E) In the event of any automatic conversion pursuant to Section 3(D) or Section 3(L), the Company shall as promptly as practicable cause to be filed with the Warrant Agent and mailed to each Warrantholder subject to such conversion, a notice specifying: (i) the date of such conversion; (ii) the number of such Warrantholder’s Warrants converted and the number of Shares of Common Stock to be issued to such Warrantholder in respect of such Warrants; and (iii) the place or places where any Warrant Certificates for such Warrants are to be surrendered and any other applicable procedures required by the Warrant Agent to effect such conversion.

(F) At any time after the execution and delivery of the Warrant Agreement, a Warrantholder shall have the right to notify the Company, in accordance with Section 6.03 thereof, that such Warrantholder opts out of the automatic conversion under Section 3(D) hereof for its Warrants. After the Company’s receipt of such notice, all of such Warrantholder’s Warrants shall be excluded from any automatic conversion under Section 3(D) unless and until the Company receives a new notice from such Warrantholder, given in accordance with Section 6.03 of the Warrant Agreement, that such Warrants are no longer to be so excluded.

(G) On the Expiration Date, prior to the termination of the Warrant Agreement and this Warrant, this Warrant shall be deemed to be exercised in full by the Warrantholder (without delivery of the Notice of Exercise or any action by the Warrantholder) to the extent that the Shares deliverable upon and at the time of such exercise will not, as determined by the Company, constitute Excess Shares upon issuance. Warrants held by Non-U.S. Citizens shall be selected for conversion into Shares on a first in, first out basis and on a pro rata basis among Warrants with the same issue date, as determined by the Company, in its sole discretion, to be calculated based solely on the number of outstanding Warrants at the time of such conversion.

(H) Notwithstanding anything in this Warrant Certificate or the Warrant Agreement to the contrary, all Shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to exercise and conversion of Warrants under Section 3(A) hereof or automatic conversion of Warrants under Section 3(D) hereof shall in all events be subject to all of the restrictions and remedies set forth in Article VI (“Compliance with U.S. Maritime Laws”) of the Charter, including, without limitation, in the event that Excess Shares are in fact issued upon the conversion of Warrants pursuant to Sections 3(A) or (D) hereof, regardless of any determinations made by the Company under this Section 3.

(I) [Reserved.]

(J) [Reserved.]

(K) If at any time the Company either ceases to be a reporting company under the Exchange Act, or fails to timely file any amendments to its Charter as required by the Exchange Act, the Company shall provide the Warrant Agent with the then current copy of the Charter or (at the Company’s option) an excerpt from the Charter containing then current version of the article entitled “Compliance with U.S. Maritime Laws” and upon the request of any Warrantholder the Warrant Agent shall provide such copy or excerpt to such Warrantholder; provided, that, in each case, the Company and/or the Warrant Agent shall be obligated to provide such copy or excerpt only (i) following amendments to such article and (ii) to the extent such copy or excerpt is not (or will not be) publicly filed or otherwise made available in a format such that Warrantholders can rely on the publicly available copy as the then most current copy or excerpt.

(L) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event the U.S. Maritime Laws are repealed or amended so that the ownership of the Common Stock by Non-U.S. Citizens is no longer restricted in any way, the provisions of this Section 3 shall no longer apply to any Warrantholder or Warrant, and this Warrant shall automatically be deemed to be exercised in full, without delivery of the Notice of Exercise or any action by the Warrantholder. Following a conversion pursuant to this Section 3(L) and upon the delivery of the Shares of Common Stock, the number of Shares issuable pursuant to Warrants held by each Warrantholder shall be reduced automatically to zero; and, for the avoidance of doubt, any such Warrants so converted into Shares shall no longer be deemed outstanding.

(M) [Reserved.]

(N) Any Warrantholder that has been determined by the Company to be a U.S. Citizen may exercise all or a portion of the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate at any time or from time to time on any Business Day after the execution and delivery of this Warrant Certificate by the Company on the date hereof, but in no event later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Expiration Date. To effect exercise, a Warrantholder shall deliver to the Warrant Agent (or to the Company or to such other office or agency of the Company in the United States as the Company may designate by notice in writing to the Warrantholders pursuant to Section 21) (i) a Notice of Exercise, duly completed and executed, and (ii) payment of the Exercise Price for the Shares thereby purchased by having the Company withhold, from the number of Shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be delivered to such Warrantholder upon such exercise, the number of Shares equal in value to the aggregate Exercise Price as to all Shares the Company would otherwise be obligated to deliver, based on the closing Market Price of the Common Stock on the trading day preceding the day the Warrant will be converted to Shares by the Company pursuant to this Section 3(N). The subject Warrant shall also be included with the Notice. For the avoidance of doubt, if Warrants are exercised such that the Exercise Price would exceed the value of the Shares issuable upon exercise, no amount shall be due and payable by the Warrantholder to the Company, nor shall any Shares be delivered to the exercising Warrantholder. If this Warrant Certificate shall have been exercised in full, the Warrant Agent shall promptly cancel such certificate following its receipt from the Warrantholder.

4. Issuance of Shares; Authorization. Shares issued upon exercise of Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate shall be (a) issued in such name or names as the exercising Warrantholder may designate and (b) delivered by the Transfer Agent to such Warrantholder or its nominee or nominees (i) if the Shares are then able to be so delivered, via book-entry transfer crediting the account of such Warrantholder with the Transfer Agent, or (ii) otherwise in certificated form by physical delivery to the address specified by the Warrantholder in the Notice of Exercise. The Company shall cause the number of full Shares to which such Warrantholder shall be entitled to be so delivered by the Transfer Agent within a reasonable time, not to exceed five (5) Business Days after the date on which Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate have been duly exercised in accordance with the terms hereof.

The Company hereby represents and warrants that any Shares issued upon the exercise of Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate in accordance with the provisions of Section 3 will be duly and validly authorized and issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges, other than liens or charges created by a Warrantholder, income and franchise taxes incurred in connection with the exercise of the Warrant or taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously therewith. The Company agrees that the Shares so issued will be deemed to have been issued to a Warrantholder as of the close of business on the date on which Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate have been duly exercised, notwithstanding that the stock transfer books of the Company may then be closed or certificates representing such Shares may not be actually delivered on such date. The Company will at all times reserve and keep available, out of its authorized but unissued Common Stock, solely for the purpose of providing for the exercise of Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock then issuable upon exercise hereof at any time. The Company will use reasonable best efforts to ensure that the Shares may be issued without violation of any applicable law or regulation or of any requirement of any securities exchange on which the Shares may be listed or traded.

5. No Fractional Shares or Scrip. Upon exercise of any Warrants, the Company shall (a) not issue fractional Shares or scrip representing fractional Shares, and (b) adjust downward to the nearest whole number the number of Shares to be issued to the exercising Warrantholder. If more than one Warrant is presented for exercise in full at the same time by the same Warrantholder or owner of a beneficial interest in Warrants, the number of full Shares issuable upon the exercise thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of Shares issuable on all such Warrants presented.

6. No Rights as Stockholders; Transfer Books. Prior to the exercise or conversion hereof into Shares, the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate do not entitle the Warrantholder or the owner of any beneficial interest in such Warrants to any rights as a stockholder of the Company, including, without limitation, any rights to vote, to receive dividends or other distributions, to exercise any preemptive right, or to receive notice as stockholders in respect of any meetings of stockholders. The Company shall at no time close its transfer books against transfer of Warrants in any manner which interferes with the timely exercise hereof.

7. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of Shares in certificated or book-entry form to the Warrantholder upon the exercise of Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate shall be made without charge to the Warrantholder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such Shares all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company. Each Warrantholder or beneficial owner of a Warrant shall be responsible for the payment or discharge of any liens or charges created by such Warrantholder or beneficial owner and for any income and franchise taxes incurred in connection with the exercise of the Warrant(s) or taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously therewith.

8. Transfer; Assignment. This Warrant Certificate and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, upon the books of the Company (or an agent duly appointed by the Company) by the registered holder hereof in person or by duly authorized attorney, and upon surrender, for such transfer purposes, of this Warrant Certificate (duly endorsed) to the office or agency of the Company described in Section 3, the Company shall make and deliver one or more new Warrant Certificates of the same tenor and date as this Warrant Certificate but registered in the name of one or more transferees. All expenses (other than stock transfer taxes) and other charges payable in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of the new Warrant Certificates pursuant to this Section 8 shall be paid by the Company.

9. Exchange and Registry of Warrants. This Warrant Certificate is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Warrantholder to the Company, for a new Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates of like tenor and representing the same aggregate number of Warrants. The Company or an agent duly appointed by the Company (which initially shall be the Warrant Agent) shall maintain a Registry showing the name and address of the Warrantholder as the registered holder of this Warrant Certificate. This Warrant Certificate may be surrendered for exchange or exercise in accordance with its terms, at the office of the Company or any such agent, and the Company shall be entitled to rely in all respects, prior to written notice to the contrary, upon such Registry.

10. Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant Certificate. If a Warrant Certificate is lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated, the Company shall make and deliver, in lieu of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant Certificate, a new Warrant Certificate of like tenor and representing the same aggregate number of Warrants as provided for in such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant Certificate, (a) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, upon receipt by the Company of proof reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft or destruction, provided, however, if the Company or the Warrant Agent requires Warrantholder to provide an indemnity bond pursuant to Section 2.06 of the Warrant Agreement, upon receipt of such bond and (b) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant Certificate.

11. Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein is not a Business Day, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Business Day.

12. Adjustments and Other Rights. The Warrant Share Number shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows; provided that if more than one subsection of this Section 12 is applicable to a single event, the subsection shall be applied that produces the largest adjustment in favor of the Warrantholder and no single event shall cause an adjustment under more than one subsection of this Section 12 so as to result in duplication:

(A) Dividend, Subdivision, Combination or Reclassification of Common Stock. In the event that the Company shall at any time or from time to time, after the issuance of this Warrant but prior to the exercise hereof, (a) make a dividend or distribution on the outstanding shares of Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, (b) subdivide the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (c) combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares or (d) issue any shares of its Capital Stock in a reclassification of the Common Stock (other than any such event for which an adjustment is made pursuant to another provision of this Section 12), then, and in each such case, the Warrant Share Number immediately prior to such event shall be adjusted (and any other appropriate actions shall be taken by the Company) so that the Warrantholder shall be entitled to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant a number of shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company that the Warrantholder would have owned or would have been entitled to receive upon or by reason of any event described above, had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to the occurrence of such event, calculated to the nearest 1/1,000th of a share. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 12(A) shall become effective retroactively (i) in the case of any such dividend or distribution, if the same shall not be subject to any express condition which shall not have already occurred, to the date immediately following the close of business on the record date for the determination of holders of shares of Common Stock entitled to receive such dividend or distribution or (ii) in the case of any such subdivision, combination or reclassification, to the close of business on the date on which such corporate action becomes effective.

(B) Certain Distributions. If, at any time or from time to time after the issuance of this Warrant but prior to the exercise hereof, the Company fixes a record date for the making of a distribution to all holders of shares of Common Stock (including any such distribution made in connection with a merger or consolidation in which the Company is the resulting or surviving Person and shares of Common Stock are not changed or exchanged) of cash, evidences of indebtedness of the Company or another issuer, securities of the Company or another issuer or other assets (excluding (x) any dividend or other distribution payable in shares of Common Stock for which adjustment is made under Section 12(A) or Section 12(G) and (y) any distribution in connection with an Excluded Transaction) or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any of the foregoing, then, and in each such case, the Warrant Share Number shall be increased to a number (calculated to the nearest 1/1,000th of a share) equal to the product of (a) the Warrant Share Number immediately prior to the record date for the distribution of such cash, evidences of indebtedness, securities, other assets or rights or warrants multiplied by (b) the quotient of:

(i) the Current Market Price immediately prior to the first date on which the Common Stock trades regular way on the principal national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is listed or admitted to trading without the right to receive such distribution of such cash, evidences of indebtedness, securities or other assets or rights or warrants (or, if the Common Stock is not then so listed or traded, the first business day after the record date for such distribution); divided by

(ii) the total (which total shall be greater than zero) of (x) the Current Market Price on the date specified in (i) above minus (y) the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock of such cash, evidences of indebtedness, securities or other assets or rights or warrants.

Such adjustment shall be made whenever any such distribution is made and shall become effective retroactively to the date immediately following the close of business on the record date for the determination of stockholders of the Company entitled to receive such distribution. Notwithstanding the adjustment provided for in this paragraph (B), the amount of the adjustment to the Warrant Share Number otherwise required thereunder shall be reduced as to each Warrant in the event any withholding or deduction with respect to taxes would be required under applicable law (as reasonably determined by the Board of Directors, hereafter “Required Withholding”) for any outstanding Warrant (including Warrants held by other Warrantholders) in connection with such adjustment. The reduction for each Warrant shall be equal to the product of the Maximum Withholding Rate times the highest amount of the unreduced adjustment for any outstanding Warrant (including Warrants held by other Warrantholders) for which there would have been Required Withholding. The “Maximum Withholding Rate” shall be the highest Required Withholding rate applicable to any such Warrant with respect to the current adjustment, as reasonably determined by the Board of Directors. The dollar value of the reduction (based on the distribution to which the adjustment related) for the Required Withholding for each Warrant shall be remitted in cash to the appropriate taxing authority or authorities in accordance with applicable law.

(C) Other Changes. If, at any time or from time to time after the issuance of this Warrant but prior to the exercise or conversion hereof, the Company takes any action which (a) affects the Common Stock and (b) is similar to, or has an effect similar to, any of the actions described in any of Sections 12(A), 12(B) or 12(G) (but not including any action described in any such Section), including a Pro Rata Repurchase Offer, the Board of Directors shall promptly and in good faith adjust the Warrant Share Number as a result of such action in such manner and at such time as the Board of Directors determines in good faith would be equitable to the Warrantholders under such circumstances which determination shall be evidenced in a resolution of the Board of Directors, a certified copy of which shall be mailed by the Company to the Warrantholder.

(D) No Adjustment. If an adjustment to the Warrant Share Number in respect of the issuance or sale of a Common Stock Equivalent has been previously made, the exercise of such Common Stock Equivalent in accordance with its terms existing at the time such adjustment was made shall not result in a further adjustment. If an adjustment to the Warrant Share Number in respect of the issuance or sale of a Common Stock Equivalent was not required, the exercise of such Common Stock Equivalent in accordance with its terms existing at the time of issuance shall not result in an adjustment pursuant thereto. In addition, subject to Section 12(A), no adjustment shall be made for accumulated and unpaid dividends.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no adjustment to the Warrant Share Number needs be made for a given transaction if each holder of Warrants participates and benefits, on the same terms and otherwise on the same basis and solely as a result of holding the Warrants, as holders of shares of Common Stock without such holders of Warrants having to exercise the Warrants as if they held a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the then-current Warrant Share Number multiplied by the number of Warrants held by such Holder.

(E) Abandonment. If the Company takes a record of the holders of shares of Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or other distribution and, before paying or delivering such dividend or distribution to the stockholders of the Company, the Company legally abandons its plan to pay or deliver such dividend or distribution (and, following such abandonment, the holders of such shares have no claim against the Company for such dividend or distribution), then no adjustment in the Warrant Share Number shall be required by reason of the taking of such record.

(F) Notice and Certificate as to Adjustments. In the event that the Company proposes to take any action of the type described in this Section 12 (but only if the action of the type described in this Section 12 would result in an adjustment in the Warrant Share Number or a change in the type of securities or property to be delivered upon exercise of a Warrant), the Company shall deliver to the Warrant Agent a notice and shall cause such notice to be sent or communicated to the Warrantholders in the manner set forth in Section 21, which notice shall specify the record date, if any, with respect to any such action and the approximate date on which such action is to take place. Such notice shall also set forth the facts with respect thereto as shall be reasonably necessary to indicate the effect on the Warrant Share Number and the number, kind or class of shares or other securities or property which shall be deliverable upon exercise of a Warrant. In the case of any action which would require the fixing of a record date, such notice shall be given at least 20 days prior to the date so fixed, and in case of all other action, such notice shall be given at least 30 days prior to the taking of such proposed action. The Company shall, at the time it makes such notice, post a copy of such notice on its website and issue a press release for publication on a newswire service. The Company shall, within 40 days following the event requiring any adjustment to the Warrant Share Number, deliver to the Warrant Agent a certificate, signed by the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, which (a) sets forth in reasonable detail (i) the event requiring such adjustment and (ii) the method by which such adjustment was calculated and (b) specifies the adjusted Warrant Share Number in effect following such adjustment. In the case of any Significant Transaction, the Company shall also deliver to the Warrant Agent the certificate described in Section 12(G)(b) at least 20 days prior to consummating such Significant Transaction. Failure to give such notice or to provide such certificate referred to above, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of any such action.

(G) Spin-off; Significant Transaction.

(a) Spin-off. If, at any time after the issuance of this Warrant but prior to the exercise hereof, the Company shall spin-off or otherwise distribute on a pro rata basis some or all of the equity securities of a subsidiary of the Company to the Company’s stockholders (the “Separated Entity”), then the Company (a) shall issue to the Warrantholder a new warrant to purchase, at the Exercise Price, or convert its new warrant into, the number of shares of Capital Stock or other proprietary interest in the Separated Entity that the Warrantholder would have owned had the Warrantholder exercised this Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of such spin-off or distribution and (b) shall make provision therefor in the agreement, if any, relating to such spin-off or distribution. Such new warrant shall provide for rights and obligations which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the rights and obligations provided for in this Warrant. Notwithstanding the two foregoing sentences, if any such spin-off or distribution shall relate to an entity that will not be subject to U.S. Maritime Laws, then in connection with such spin-off or distribution the Board of Directors shall consider in good faith whether it is possible to issue to the Warrantholder shares of Capital Stock or other ownership interests directly in the name of such Warrantholder, and if the Board of Directors determines in its sole discretion that it would be possible to do so without creating a material adverse effect on such Warrantholders, then it will use reasonable efforts to provide for such direct issuance; provided, however, that in no event shall the Company be required to take any such action if, as so determined by the Board of Directors, it could interfere with, delay, or otherwise adversely affect the expected benefits of such spin-off or distribution to the Company or its stockholders. The provisions of this Section 12(G)(a) (and any equivalent thereof in any such new warrant) shall apply to successive transactions.

(b) Significant Transaction. If, at any time after the issuance of this Warrant but prior to the exercise hereof, any Significant Transaction occurs, then the Warrantholders shall have the right to acquire and receive, upon exercise of such Warrants, such cash, stock, securities or other assets or property as would have been issued or payable in such Significant Transaction (if the Warrantholder had exercised such Warrant immediately prior to such Significant Transaction) with respect to or in exchange, as applicable, for the number of Shares that would have been issued upon exercise of such Warrants, if such Warrants had been exercised immediately prior to the occurrence of such Significant Transaction. The Company shall be required to make provision for the foregoing in the definitive agreement, if any, relating to such Significant Transaction; and shall not effect any Significant Transaction unless, prior to the consummation thereof, the surviving Person (if other than the Company) resulting from such Significant Transaction, shall assume, by written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant in all material respects (including with respect to the provisions of this Section 12 and, if the issuer of any securities into which this Warrant is exercisable is subject to the U.S. Maritime Laws, the provisions of this Warrant related thereto with respect to such issuer), the obligation to deliver to the Warrantholders such cash, stock, securities or other assets or property which, in accordance with Section 12(B), the Warrantholders are entitled to receive upon exercise of the Warrants. Notwithstanding the two foregoing sentences, if stock or securities of any Person not subject to U.S. Maritime Laws shall be issued or payable in such Significant Transaction, then in connection with such Significant Transaction, the Board of Directors shall consider in good faith whether it is possible to issue to the Warrantholder any such stock, securities or other ownership interests directly in the name of such Warrantholder, and if the Board of Directors determines in its sole discretion that it would be possible to do so without creating a material adverse effect on such Warrantholders, then it will use reasonable efforts to provide for such direct issuance; provided, however, that in no event shall the Company be required to take any such action if, as so determined by the Board of Directors, it could interfere with, delay, or otherwise adversely affect the expected benefits of such Significant Transaction to the Company or its stockholders. The provisions of this Section 12(G)(b) (and any equivalent thereof in any such new warrant) shall apply to successive transactions.

(H) Timing of Issuance of Additional Common Stock Upon Certain Adjustments. In any case in which the provisions of this Section 12 shall require that an adjustment shall become effective immediately after a record date for an event, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Warrant, the Company may defer until the occurrence of such event issuing to a Warrantholder of Warrants exercised after such record date and before the occurrence of such event the Shares issuable upon such exercise by reason of the adjustment required by such event over and above the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise before giving effect to such adjustment; provided, however, that the Company upon request shall deliver to such Warrantholder a due bill or other appropriate instrument evidencing such Warrantholder’s right to receive such additional Shares upon the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment.

(I) Proceedings Prior to Any Action Requiring Adjustment. As a condition precedent to the taking of any action which would require an adjustment pursuant to this Section 12, the Company shall promptly take (and shall be permitted by the Warrantholders to take) any action which may be necessary, including obtaining any applicable national securities exchange or stockholder approvals or exemptions, in order that the Company may thereafter validly and legally issue as fully paid and nonassessable all Shares that a Warrantholder is entitled to receive upon exercise of a Warrant pursuant to this Section 12.

13. Representations and Warranties. The Company represents and warrants to the Warrantholder:

(A) Organization and Qualification. The Company is a Delaware corporation duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Company is duly qualified or licensed to conduct business in each jurisdiction where the nature of its business or assets requires such qualification. The Company has full power and authority and all material licenses, permits and authorizations necessary to own and operate its properties and to carry on its business as now conducted, and the Company is not in default under or in violation of any provision of its Charter.

(B) Agreements Valid.
