The Borrowers may, by giving no less than 90 days written notice to the Agent (the "Deferral Notice") prior to the then next Repayment Date in respect of an Advance, elect to defer repayment of the Repayment Instalment in respect of that Advance due on that Repayment Date subject to the following conditions:

the Borrowers providing the Agent with evidence satisfactory to it that the aggregate of the accumulated available cash of the Borrowers and the projected Earnings of the Ships during the 3 month period (the "Applicable Period") commencing on the Repayment Date of the Repayment Instalment which the Borrowers have elected to defer in accordance with this Clause 8.13 (the "Requested Deferred Instalment") are insufficient to cover the Requested Deferred Instalment and the Operating Expenses of the Ships for that Applicable Period, such evidence to include, without limitation (i) future performance and cash flow projections of each Ship which, in the opinion of the Agent, demonstrate the Borrowers' inability to pay (A) the Requested Deferred Instalment and (B) the General and Administrative Expenses incurred during the Applicable Period and the Operating Expenses of the Ships on a timely basis during the Applicable Period and (ii) performance and cash flow analysis in respect of the 6-month period ending on the date of the Deferral Notice demonstrating, in the opinion of the Agent, utilisation of accumulated cash balances by the Borrowers solely for payment of interest and principal under this Agreement, the General and Administrative Expenses incurred during the Applicable Period and the Operating Expenses of the Ships during that 6-month period which nevertheless results in the projected cash shortfall;

(g)	any Repayment Instalment in respect of an Advance which is deferred in accordance with this Clause 8.13 and which is subsequently prepaid; and

(h)	no Event of Default or Potential Event of Default having occurred on or prior to the date of the Deferral Notice or on the date on which such deferred Repayment Instalment would have been (except for such election of deferral by the Borrowers) due and payable,

(any amount deferred in accordance with this Clause 8.13 shall hereafter be referred to as the "Deferred Amount" and, in the plural, "Deferred Amounts").

8.14	Excess earnings recapture

(a)	At all times while any Deferred Amounts remain outstanding, if, on an Excess Cash Flow Date, the aggregate Earnings for the Ships during the Cash Sweep Period ending on that Excess Cash Flow Date exceeds the aggregate of:

(i)

the aggregate of the Operating Expenses of all the Ships and the General and Administrative Expenses of all the Borrowers incurred during such Cash Sweep Period; and

(ii)

the aggregate amounts payable by the Borrowers pursuant to Clause 5 and Clause 8.1 during such Cash Sweep Period (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any Deferred Amount),

the Borrowers shall pay such excess amount (the "Excess Cash Flow"), as evidenced in the relevant Excess Cash Flow Notice, to the Agent within 45 days from the Excess Cash Flow Date and such Excess Cash Flow shall be applied pro rata towards prepayment of any Deferred Amount which is outstanding under each Advance

Within 5 Business Days from the date of preparation of each Borrower's individual annual unaudited financial statements and the unaudited financial statements in respect of the second quarter in each of their financial years, the Borrowers shall notify the Agent in writing (the "Discrepancy Notice") if there is a discrepancy between the Excess Cash Flow determined in accordance with those financial statements and that for the same period referred to in any Excess Cash Flow Notice delivered to the Agent in accordance with this Clause 8.14(a).

If such discrepancies result:

(i)

in a higher Excess Cash Flow than the amount referred to in the relevant Excess Cash Flow Notice, the Borrowers shall pay to the Agent the surplus amount within 5 Business Days from the date of the Discrepancy Notice; or

(ii)

in a lower Excess Cash Flow than the amount referred to in the relevant Excess Cash Flow Notice, the Excess Cash Flow determined in respect of the Cash Sweep Period ending on the then next Excess Cash Flow Date shall be reduced by such deficit.

The aggregate of all Excess Cash Flow applied in accordance with this Clause 8.14 shall not exceed the aggregate of the Deferred Amounts.

(b)	In this Clause 8.14:

"Cash Sweep Period" means, at any time when any Deferred Amounts remain outstanding, each six-month period commencing on 1 January and 1 July in each financial year of the Borrowers;

"Excess Cash Flow Date" means the last day of each Cash Sweep Period; and

15.2	Provision of additional security; prepayment

If the Agent serves a notice on the Borrowers under Clause 15.1, the Borrowers shall prepay such part (at least) of the Loan as will eliminate the shortfall on or before the date falling 30 days after the date on which the Agent's notice is served under Clause 15.1 (the "Prepayment Date") unless at least 1 Business Day before the Prepayment Date they have provided, or ensured that a third party has provided, additional security (in the form of cash or security over other vessels) or a partial prepayment which, in the opinion of the Majority Lenders, has a net realisable value at least equal to the shortfall and which has been documented in such terms as the Agent may, with the authorisation of the Majority Lenders, approve or require.

15.3	Meaning of additional security

In Clauses 15.1 and 15.2, "security" means a Security Interest over an asset or assets (whether securing the Borrowers' liabilities under the Finance Documents or a guarantee in respect of those liabilities), or a guarantee, letter of credit or other security in respect of the Borrowers' liabilities under the Finance Documents.

15.5	Valuation of Ships

as at a date not more than 30 days previously;

by two Approved Valuers selected by the Borrowers, confirmed by the Lenders and reporting to the Agent for the purpose;

(iii)

with or without physical inspection of that Ship (as the Agent may require);

(iv)

on the basis of a sale for prompt delivery for cash on normal arm's length commercial terms as between a willing seller and a willing buyer, free of any existing charter or other contract of employment; and

(v)

after deducting the estimated amount of the usual and reasonable expenses which would be incurred in connection with the sale.

(b)

Provided that if the market value of a Ship as evidenced in one of the two valuations provided under paragraph (a) above exceeds by 15 per cent. the market value of that Ship as evidenced in the other valuation to be provided under paragraph (a) above (such difference to be determined with reference to the lowest valuation), then the Borrowers shall procure that the Agent is promptly provided with a third valuation prepared in accordance with the requirements referred under paragraph (a) above and the Market Value of that Ship shall be determined as the arithmetic mean of all three valuations.

15 Provided that so long as no Event of Default has occurred the Borrowers shall not be obliged to pay any such fees and expenses in respect of more than one set of valuations of each Ship in any calendar year (in addition to the set of valuations to determine the Initial Market Value of the Ships for the purposes of drawdown).

19.5	Multiple notices; action without notice

The Agent may serve notices under Clauses 19.2 (a)(i) and (ii) simultaneously or on different dates and it and/or the Security Trustee may take any action referred to in Clause 19.2 if no such notice is served or simultaneously with or at any time after the service of both or either of such notices.

21	INDEMNITIES

21.1	Indemnities regarding borrowing and repayment of Loan

The Borrowers shall fully indemnify the Agent and each Lender and the Swap Bank on the Agent's demand and the Security Trustee on its demand in respect of all claims, expenses, liabilities and losses which are made or brought against or incurred by that Creditor Party, or which that Creditor Party reasonably and with due diligence estimates that it will incur, as a result of or in connection with:

21.4	Currency indemnity

If any sum due from any Borrower or any Security Party to a Creditor Party under a Finance Document or under any order or judgment relating to a Finance Document has to be converted from the currency in which the Finance Document provided for the sum to be paid (the "Contractual Currency") into another currency (the "Payment Currency") for the purpose of:

the Borrowers shall indemnify the Creditor Party concerned against the loss arising when the amount of the payment actually received by that Creditor Party is converted at the available rate of exchange into the Contractual Currency.

In this Clause 21.4, the "available rate of exchange" means the rate at which the Creditor Party concerned is able at the opening of business (Swiss time) on the Business Day after it receives the sum concerned to purchase the Contractual Currency with the Payment Currency.

This Clause 21.4 creates a separate liability of the Borrowers which is distinct from their other liabilities under the Finance Documents and which shall not be merged in any judgment or order relating to those other liabilities.

21.5	Application to Master Agreement

21.6	Certification of amounts

A notice which is signed by 2 officers of a Creditor Party, which states that a specified amount, or aggregate amount, is due to that Creditor Party under this Clause 21 and which indicates (without necessarily specifying a detailed breakdown) the matters in respect of which the amount, or aggregate amount, is due shall be prima facie evidence that the amount, or aggregate amount, is due.

21.7	Environmental Indemnity

21.8	Sums deemed due to a Lender

(b)	that Borrower shall pay the tax deducted to the appropriate taxation authority promptly, and in any event before any fine or penalty arises; and

(c)

the amount due in respect of the payment shall be increased by the amount necessary to ensure that each Creditor Party receives and retains (free from any liability relating to the tax deduction) a net amount which, after the tax deduction, is equal to the full amount which it would otherwise have received.

22.3	Evidence of payment of taxes

Within one month after making any tax deduction, the Borrower concerned shall deliver to the Agent documentary evidence satisfactory to the Agent that the tax had been paid to the appropriate taxation authority.

22.5	Tax credits

A Creditor Party receives for its own account a repayment or credit in respect of tax on account of which the Borrowers have made an increased payment under Clause 22.2, it shall pay to the Borrowers a sum equal to the proportion of the repayment or credit which that Creditor Party allocates to the amount due from the Borrowers in respect of which the Borrowers made the increased payment Provided that:

(a)	the Creditor Party shall not be obliged to allocate to this transaction any part of a tax repayment or credit which is referable to a class or number of transactions;

(b)	nothing in this Clause 22.5 shall oblige a Creditor Party to arrange its tax affairs in any particular manner, to claim any type of relief, credit, allowance or deduction instead of, or in priority to, another or to make any such claim within any particular time;

(c)	nothing in this Clause 22.5 shall oblige a Creditor Party to make a payment which would leave it in a worse position than it would have been in if the Borrowers had not been required to make a tax deduction from a payment;

(d)	any allocation or determination made by a Creditor Party under or in connection with this Clause 22.5 shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers;

22.6	Application to Master Agreement

For the avoidance of doubt, Clause 22 does not apply in respect of sums due from the Borrowers to the Swap Bank under or in connection with the Master Agreement as to which

sums the provisions of section 2(d) (Deduction or Withholding for Tax) of the Master Agreement shall apply.

to be (in the case of its rights) transferred to, or (in the case of its obligations) assumed by, another bank or financial institution or any other entity which is regularly engaged in or established for the purpose of making, purchasing or investing in loans or securities (a "Transferee Lender") by delivering to the Agent a completed certificate in the form set out in Schedule 4 with any modifications approved or required by the Agent (a "Transfer Certificate") executed by the Transferor Lender and the Transferee Lender.

However any rights and obligations of the Transferor Lender in its capacity as Agent or Security Trustee will have to be dealt with separately in accordance with the Agency and Trust Agreement.

Any transfer made pursuant to this Clause 26.2 shall require the prior written consent of the Borrowers (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed and shall be deemed to be given if the Borrowers do not respond to the Agent's request for such consent within 10 Business Days of receiving the same) unless (i) a transfer is to be made at any time after the

A Transfer Certificate becomes effective on the date, if any, specified in the Transfer Certificate as its effective date, Provided that it is signed by the Agent under Clause 26.3 on or before that date.

26.5	No transfer without Transfer Certificate

Except as provided in Clause 26.17, no assignment or transfer of any right or obligation of a Lender under any Finance Document (other than the Master Agreement) is binding on, or effective in relation to, any Borrower, any Security Party, the Agent or the Security Trustee unless it is effected, evidenced or perfected by a Transfer Certificate.

26.6	Lender re-organisation; waiver of Transfer Certificate

However, if a Lender enters into any merger, de-merger or other reorganisation, as a result of which all its rights or obligations vest in another person (the "successor"), the Agent may, if it sees fit, by notice to the successor and the Borrowers and the Security Trustee, waive the need for the execution and delivery of a Transfer Certificate; and, upon service of the Agent's notice, the successor shall become a Lender with the same Commitment and Contribution as were held by the predecessor Lender.

26.7	Effect of Transfer Certificate

A Transfer Certificate takes effect in accordance with English law as follows:

(a)

to the extent specified in the Transfer Certificate, all rights and interests (present, future or contingent) which the Transferor Lender has under or by virtue of the Finance Documents (other than the Master Agreement) are assigned to the Transferee Lender absolutely, free of any defects in the Transferor Lender's title and of any rights or equities which any Borrower or any Security Party had against the Transferor Lender;

(b)	the Transferor Lender's Commitment is discharged to the extent specified in the Transfer Certificate;

(c)	the Transferee Lender becomes a Lender with the Contribution previously held by the Transferor Lender and a Commitment of an amount specified in the Transfer Certificate;

(d)

the Transferee Lender becomes bound by all the provisions of the Finance Documents (other than the Master Agreement) which are applicable to the Lenders generally, including those about pro-rata sharing and the exclusion of liability on the part of, and the indemnification of, the Agent and the Security Trustee and, to the extent that the Transferee Lender becomes bound by those provisions (other than those relating to exclusion of liability), the Transferor Lender ceases to be bound by them;

(e)

any part of the Loan which the Transferee Lender advances after the Transfer Certificate's effective date ranks in point of priority and security in the same way as it would have ranked had it been advanced by the transferor, assuming that any defects in the transferor's title and any rights or equities of any Borrower or any Security Party against the Transferor Lender had not existed;

(f)

the Transferee Lender becomes entitled to all the rights under the Finance Documents (other than the Master Agreement) which are applicable to the Lenders generally, including but not limited to those relating to the Majority Lenders and those under Clause 5.7 and Clause 20, and to the extent that the Transferee Lender becomes entitled to such rights, the Transferor Lender ceases to be entitled to them; and

(g)

in respect of any breach of a warranty, undertaking, condition or other provision of a Finance Document (other than the Master Agreement) or any misrepresentation made in or in connection with a Finance Document (other than the Master Agreement), the Transferee Lender shall be entitled to recover damages by reference to the loss incurred by it as a result of the breach or misrepresentation, irrespective of whether the original Lender would have incurred a loss of that kind or amount.

The rights and equities of any Borrower or any Security Party referred to above include, but are not limited to, any right of set off and any other kind of cross-claim.

26.8	Maintenance of register of Lenders

During the Security Period the Agent shall maintain a register in which it shall record the name, Commitment, Contribution and administrative details (including the lending office) from time to time of each Lender holding a Transfer Certificate and the effective date (in accordance with Clause 26.4) of the Transfer Certificate; and the Agent shall make the register available for inspection by any Lender, the Security Trustee and the Borrowers during normal banking hours, subject to receiving at least 3 Business Days' prior notice.

26.9	Reliance on register of Lenders

The entries on that register shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive in determining the identities of the Lenders and the amounts of their Commitments and Contributions and the effective dates of Transfer Certificates and may be relied upon by the Agent and the other parties to the Finance Documents for all purposes relating to the Finance Documents.

26.10

Authorisation of Agent to sign Transfer Certificates

Each Borrower, the Security Trustee, each Lender and the Swap Bank irrevocably authorise the Agent to sign Transfer Certificates on their behalf.
