The original statement shall be signed by each person on whose behalf the statement is filed or his authorized representative.  If the statement is signed on behalf of a person by his authorized representative other than an executive officer or general partner of the filing person, evidence of the representative's authority to sign on behalf of such person shall be filed with the statement, provided, however, that a power of attorney for this purpose which is already on file with the Commission may be incorporated by reference.  The name and any title of each person who signs the statement shall be typed or printed beneath his signature.

Note.  Schedules filed in paper format shall include a signed original and five copies of the schedule, including all exhibits. See s.240.13d-7 for other parties for whom copies are to be sent.

Attention.  Intentional misstatements or omissions of fact constitute Federal criminal violations (see 18 U.S.C. 1001).
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
+ This Amendment No. 2 amends and restates the statements in the Amendment No. 1 filed on June 25, 2009 with respect to shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock") of Trico Marine Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company").  As was the case in the Amendment No. 1, this Amendment No. 2 takes into consideration the conversion limitation of the Company's 8.125% convertible debentures of Trico Marine Services, Inc. (the "Company"), such convertible debentures held by Investcorp Silverback Arbitrage Master Fund Limited and Investcorp Silverback Opportunistic Convertible Master Fund Limited, pursuant to which the Reporting Persons herein are prevented from converting any portion of such convertible debentures in excess of 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion (the "Conversion Limitation").  Investcorp Silverback Opportunistic Convertible Master Fund Limited's beneficial ownership in Trico Marine Services, Inc. is less than 5% of the Company's Common Stock, and, therefore, pursuant to Section 13(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, it has not filed herein as a Reporting Person.

(1) These shares are derived solely from (a) Investcorp Silverback Arbitrage Master Fund Limited's ownership of the Company's 8.125% convertible debentures and Common Stock and (b) Investcorp Silverback Opportunistic Convertible Master Fund Limited's respective ownership of the Company's 3% and 8.125% convertible debentures.

(2) These shares are derived solely from Investcorp Silverback Arbitrage Master Fund Limited's ownership of the Company's 8.125% convertible debentures and Common Stock.
