          upon any distribution of capital, be entitled to the surplus assets of
          the Company pari passu with the holders of the Class A Shares and the
          Class C Shares; and

     (d)  generally be entitled to enjoy all of the rights attaching to shares.

(4) The holders of Class C Shares shall, subject to the provisions of these
Bye-laws:



                                      -24-


     (a)  be entitled to one vote per share;

     (b)  subject to subparagraph (5) of this Bye-law, be entitled to such
          dividends as the Board may from time to time declare pari passu with
          the holders of the Class A Shares and the Class B Shares;

     (c)  subject to subparagraph (5) of this Bye-law, in the event of a
          winding-up or dissolution of the Company, whether voluntary or
          involuntary or for the purpose of a reorganisation or otherwise or
          upon any distribution of capital, be entitled to the surplus assets of
          the Company pari passu with the holders of the Class A Shares and the
          Class B Shares; and

     (d)  generally be entitled to enjoy all of the rights attaching to shares.

(5) In the event that 3 of the consecutive semi-annual dividend payments
referred to Bye-law 50B(2) are not paid in cash, the holders of the Preference
Shares shall be entitled to one vote per share to be voted together with the
holders of the Class C Shares voting as a class for the election of the Class C
Director(s) as set forth in Bye-law 16.

(6) Restriction on transfer

     (a)  Any attempted transfer of Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C
          Shares or Preference Shares shall be void ab initio to the extent that
          (i) such transfer would result in any holder that is a U.S. holder
          owning in the aggregate more than 49% (the "Permitted Percentage") of
          Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares or Preference Shares
          respectively, or (ii) if, as a result of such transfer, the Company
          would become a "controlled foreign corporation" (as defined under
          Section 957 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
          "Code)) (the "Transfer Restrictions"). The Permitted Percentage shall
          be determined by taking into account the attribution rules under
          Section 318 of the Code. The Transfer Restrictions shall continue in
          full force and effect until modified by the Board of Directors or by
          shareholder action.

     (b)  The Company shall not register the transfer of Class A Shares, Class B
          Shares, Class C Shares or Preference Shares if such transfer would
          constitute a violation of the Transfer Restrictions. A purported
          transferee that receives Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C
          Shares or Preference Shares in violation of the Transfer Restriction
          shall not be recognized as the owner of such Class A Shares, Class B
          Shares, Class C Shares or Preference Shares for any purpose and shall
          not be entitled to any rights as a shareholder of the Company arising
          from the ownership of such shares, including, but not limited to, the
          right to vote such shares or to receive dividends or distributions in
          respect thereof. Such Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares
          or Preference Shares shall continue to be owned by



                                      -25-


          the person who attempted to transfer such shares in violation of the
          Transfer Restriction.

     (c)  All Certificates or other instruments evidencing ownership of the
          Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares or Preference Shares
          shall bear a conspicuous legend as follows:

          "THE TRANSFER OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY IS SUBJECT TO
          RESTRICTIONS PURSUANT TO BYE-LAW 50(6) OF TBS INTERNATIONAL LIMITED."

50A. Additional Share Rights - Class C Shares

(1) Designation, amount and rank. There shall be established hereby a class of
common shares of the Company. The shares of such class shall be designated
"Class C Common Shares" and the number of shares constituting such class shall
be 6,000,000. Such number of shares may not be increased or decreased, other
than any shares to be issued pursuant to the Warrant Agreement or the conversion
of the Preference Shares into Class C Shares, other than by resolution of the
members and without the affirmative vote of 50% or more of the holders of the
Class C Shares then in issue. The Class C Shares shall have a par value of U.S.
$0.004 per share. Class C Shares shall rank pari passu with all other classes or
series of common shares of the Company (now outstanding or hereafter authorized
or issued) with respect to the payment of dividends, redemptions and upon
liquidations.

(2) Dividends.

     (a)  Each holder of Class C Shares shall be entitled to receive, when and
          as declared by the Board, out of funds of the Company legally
          available therefor, dividends or other distributions in not less than
          such amounts (on a per share basis), in such form and on such dates as
          the Board of Directors shall so declare with respect to any of the
          Company's other classes of common shares. All dividends or other
          distributions declared or made upon the Class C Shares shall be
          declared or made pro rata per share.

     (b)  Subject to paragraph (a) above, dividends or other distributions on
          the Class C Shares shall be paid in cash or in such other property of
          the Company as the declaration of the Board of Directors respecting
          such dividend shall direct.

(3) Liquidation, dissolution or winding up. In the event of any voluntary or
involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company (each of the
foregoing, a "Liquidation Event"), each holder of Class C Shares then
outstanding shall be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Company
available for distribution to its holders of common shares, ratably with all of
the holders of common shares of the Company of all



                                      -26-


classes and series. The Company shall mail written notice of such Liquidation
Event, not less than 60 days prior to the payment date stated therein, to each
holder of record of Class C Shares.

(4) Voting. The holder of each issued Class C Share shall be entitled to vote at
each meeting of the Members with respect to any proposal in respect of which the
holders of common shares are entitled to vote. Notwithstanding the foregoing or
any other provision of these Bye-laws, the following actions shall require the
affirmative vote of holders of 50% or more of the Class C Shares then in issue:
(i) any act that would impair, abridge or modify any of the provisions or rights
contained in this Bye-law 50A, (ii) any amendment to or modification of any
provision of the Memorandum of Association of the Company or these Bye-Laws
respecting the rank or priority of the Class C Shares or the voting rights or
powers (including with respect to the election, removal or representation of
Directors) or procedures of any class or series of shares of the Company
(including, without limitation, any proposed modification granting, limiting or
purporting to grant or limit any shareholder or class of shareholders of the
Company super-majority voting rights or powers) or creating or granting any
class or series of shares (or any warrants, options or other rights to purchase
or acquire such shares) of the Company or increasing the number of issued or
authorized shares of any class or series of shares of the Company, or (iii) any
proposal for the merger, amalgamation or consolidation of the Company with or
into, or the exchange of shares among the Company and any Person.

50B. Additional Share Rights - Preference Shares

(1) Designation, amount and rank. There shall be established hereby a class of
preference shares. The shares of such class shall be designated "Preference
Shares", and the number of shares constituting such class shall be 1,500,000.
Such number of shares may not be increased or decreased other than by resolution
of the Members and without the affirmative vote of 50% or more in aggregate
Liquidation Preference of Preference Shares then in issue, provided, that no
decrease shall reduce the number of shares to a number less than the number of
shares then in issue other than by redemption of such shares. Subject to
paragraph (4) below, Preference Shares shall rank senior and prior to all other
classes or series of shares of the Company (now outstanding or hereafter
authorized or issued) with respect to the payment of dividends and redemptions
and upon liquidations.

(2) Dividends. Effective January 1, 2004, each holder of Preference Shares shall
be entitled to receive, when and as declared by the Board, out of funds of the
Company legally available therefor, in preference to and having priority with
respect to any payment of any dividend on any other class or series of shares by
the Company, an annual cash dividend of US$0.30 payable semi-annually (in
payments of US$0.15) multiplied by the number of Preference Shares held by such
holder. Such dividend shall be cumulative and shall accrue (whether or not
earned or declared, whether or not there are funds legally available for the
payment thereof and whether or not restricted by the



                                      -27-


terms of any of the Company's indebtedness outstanding at any time) commencing
as of January 1, 2004 (in relation to Preference Shares in issue on that date)
to and including the date on which the Preference Shares are redeemed or
converted into Class C Shares as provided in paragraph (6) below. To the fullest
extent permitted by the laws of Bermuda and not otherwise prohibited by any
provision of the Indenture, the Board shall declare and the Company shall pay,
on each Dividend Payment Date, in U.S. Dollars, to the holder of each Preference
Share on the date falling 15 days prior to such Dividend Payment Date (each such
date, a "Record Date"), all dividends then accrued in respect of such Preference
Shares. In addition, the Preference Shares shall be entitled to share, on an as
converted basis, with the Class C Shares in any dividends paid on the Class C
Shares. All dividends declared upon the Preference Shares, whether of all
amounts then accrued with respect to the Preference Shares, or in part, shall be
declared pro rata per share.

(3) Liquidation, dissolution or winding up. In the event of a Liquidation Event,
each holder of shares of Preference Shares then outstanding shall be entitled to
be paid out of the assets of the Company available for distribution to its
shareholders, upon such Liquidation Event, but before any payment shall be made
to the holders of common shares, an amount equal to the greater of (i) the
Liquidation Value of the Preference Shares at such time or (ii) the amount the
Preference Shares would receive were the Preference Shares converted into Class
C Shares pursuant to paragraph (6) below. If upon any such Liquidation Event the
remaining assets of the Company available for the distribution to its
shareholders shall be insufficient to pay the holders of shares of Preference
Shares the full amount to which they shall be entitled, the holders of shares of
Preference Shares shall share ratably in any distribution of the remaining
assets and funds of the Company in proportion to the respective amounts which
would otherwise be payable in respect to the shares held by them upon such
distribution if all amounts payable on or with respect to said shares were paid
in full. The Company shall mail written notice of such Liquidation Event, not
less than 60 days prior to the payment date stated therein, to each holder of
record of Preference Shares.

(4) Voting

     (a)  Holders of the Preference Shares shall be entitled to vote with
          respect to the following matters and any other matters as required
          under Bermuda law, each of which shall require the affirmative vote of
          holders of 50% or more in aggregate Liquidation Preference of
          Preference Shares then in issue:

          (i)  any proposal respecting the amalgamation, merger or consolidation
               of the Company or the sale of all or substantially all of the
               assets of the Company which fails to provide for payment in full
               of the Liquidation Value to each holder of all shares of
               Preference Shares then in issue;

          (ii) any amendment or modification of the Memorandum of



                                      -28-


               Association or the Bye-Laws of the Company, or any resolutions
               passed thereunder that would materially adversely impair or vary
               the rights of holders of the Preference Shares; and

          (iii) the establishment of the terms of any equity securities of the
               Company ranking, in right of distributions, redemption or
               liquidation, pari passu with or senior to the Preference Shares.

     (b)  If the Company fails to pay in full dividends due and payable on any
          three consecutive Dividend Payment Dates, then, until the payment in
          full of such accrued dividends, each issued and outstanding share of
          Preference Shares shall be entitled to one vote at each meeting of
          shareholders of the Company with respect to any proposal with respect
          to which any shareholders are entitled to vote under law or as set
          forth herein under Bye-Law 50(5).

     (c)  For the purpose of paragraph (4)(a), holders of Preference Shares
          shall vote as a class.

(5) Redemption

     (a)  Subject to the terms and conditions provided in subparagraph (d) of
          this paragraph (5), the Company may, at the option of the Company
          exercised at any time, redeem in cash any or all of the Preference
          Shares then in issue at a price per share equal to the Liquidation
          Value. If the Company shall at any time elect to redeem less than all
          of the shares of Preference Shares then outstanding, it shall make
          such redemption on a pro rata basis among the holders of the
          Preference Shares then in issue.

     (b)  No share of Preference Shares shall be entitled to any dividends
          accruing after the date on which such Preference Shares are redeemed
          in full in cash and an amount equal to the Liquidation Value is paid
          for each share so redeemed (the "Final Redemption Date"). On the Final
          Redemption Date, all rights of the holder of such share of the
          Preference Shares shall cease, and such share of the Preference Shares
          will not be deemed to be outstanding.

     (c)  All Preference Shares that are redeemed or otherwise acquired by the
          Company shall be canceled and shall not be reissued, sold or
          transferred.

     (d)  In the event that the Company elects to redeem Preference Shares
          pursuant to this paragraph (5), the Company shall deliver to each
          holder of the Preference Shares to be redeemed written notice of such
          redemption (the "Redemption Notice"). The Redemption Notice shall
          specify the shares of the Preference Shares to be redeemed and the
          redemption date for the shares to be redeemed (the "Redemption Date"),
          which Redemption Date



                                      -29-


          shall be a date not less than 90 days and not more than 120 days from
          the date of the Redemption Notice. With respect to any Redemption
          Date, the Company shall not redeem more than that number of the
          Preference Shares which are legally permitted to be so redeemed under
          the Act, which will not cause the Company to be in violation of any
          provision of the Indenture and which will not cause the Company to
          become a "controlled foreign corporation" (as defined under section
          957 of the Code). Any such Preference Shares not redeemed on any
          Redemption Date shall be redeemed at the earliest later time as such
          redemption is legally permitted and will not cause such a violation.
          On the Redemption Date specified in the Redemption Notice (or such
          later date as provided in the immediately preceding sentence),each
          holder of Preference Shares being redeemed shall deliver to the
          Company the certificate or certificates representing such shares of
          the Preference Shares, as the case may be, duly endorsed or
          accompanied by a duly executed share transfer form against payment
          therefor by the Company, and the Company shall redeem, and acquire
          good and valid title to, such shares, free and clear of any liens,
          charges, encumbrances or restrictions of any nature whatsoever. All
          notices referred to herein shall be in writing and shall be delivered
          personally, by courier, by registered or certified mail, return
          receipt requested, postage prepaid or by telecopy with a copy sent by
          one of the foregoing methods, and shall be deemed to have been given
          when received, (i) in the case of the Company, at its principal
          executive offices and, (ii) in the case of any holder of Preference
          Shares, at such holder's address as it appears in the register of
          members of the Company (unless otherwise indicated by any such
          holder).

     (e)  Upon receipt of the Redemption Notice, each holder of the Preference
          Shares may elect to convert the shares as provided in paragraph (6)
          below.

(6) Conversion

     (a)  Subject to the following provisions of this paragraph (6), each
          Preference Share shall be convertible, at the option of the holder
          thereof by written notice delivered to the registered office of the
          Company not less than 30 days prior to the date of conversion, into
          two Class C Shares.

     (b)  In the event of any change in the capital structure of the Company
          that would materially decrease the relative value of the Class C
          Shares to be received in accordance with subparagraph (a) above, the
          number of Class C Shares into which each Preference Share converts
          shall be increased accordingly.

     (c)  Any conversion of Preference Shares may be effected by way of
          variation of rights, share repurchase and issue, bonus issue, share
          consolidation, share subdivision and/or any other manner permitted by
          law.

     (d)  No Preference Share may be converted if, as a result of such
          conversion, the Company would become a "controlled foreign
          corporation" (as defined under section 957 of the Code).



                                      -30-


51.  Power to issue shares

     (1) Subject to these Bye-laws and to any resolution of the Members to the
contrary and without prejudice to any special rights previously conferred on the
holders of any existing shares or class of shares, the Board shall have power to
issue any unissued shares of the Company on such terms and conditions as it may,
in its absolute discretion, determine, and any Preference Shares may be issued
with such preferred, deferred or other special rights or such restrictions,
including, without limitation, in regard to dividend, voting, redemption,
conversion, exchange, return of capital or otherwise as the Members may from
time to time prescribe by resolution, provided that the approval of such
resolution includes the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the Class C
Shares. Provided that notwithstanding anything contained in these Bye-laws to
the contrary, no further action or consent by either the Board or the holders of
Class C Shares shall be required to effect the immediate issuance by the
Secretary of any Shares issuable upon exercise of any or all of the New Series A
Warrants, New Series B Warrants and the New Series C Warrants.

     (2) The Board shall, in connection with the issue of any share, have the
power to pay such commission and brokerage as may be permitted by law.

     (3) The Company shall not give, whether directly or indirectly, whether by
means of loan, guarantee, provision of security or otherwise, any financial
assistance for the purpose of a purchase or subscription made or to be made by
any person of or for any shares in the Company, but nothing in this Bye-Law
shall prohibit transactions mentioned in Sections 39A, 39B and 39C of the Act.

     (4) The Company may from time to time do any one or more of the following
things:

          (a)  make arrangements on the issue of shares for a difference between
               the Members in the amounts and times of payments of calls on
               their shares;

          (b)  accept from any Member the whole or a part of the amount
               remaining unpaid on any shares held by him, although no part of
               that amount has been called up;

          (c)  pay dividends in proportion to the amount paid up on each share
               where a larger amount is paid up on some shares than on others;
               and



                                      -31-


          (d)  issue its shares in fractional denominations and deal with such
               fractions to the same extent as its whole shares and shares in
               fractional denominations shall have in proportion to the
               respective fractions represented thereby all of the rights of
               whole shares including (but without limiting the generality of
               the foregoing) the right to vote, to receive dividends and
               distributions and to participate in a winding up.

52.  Variation of rights, alteration of share capital and purchase of shares of
     the Company

     (1) Subject to the provisions of Sections 42 and 43 of the Act any
preference shares may be issued or converted into shares that, at a determinable
date or at the option of the Company, are liable to be redeemed on such terms
and in such manner as the Company before the issue or conversion may by
resolution of the Members determine.

     (2) If at any time the share capital is divided into different classes of
shares, the rights attached to any class (unless otherwise provided by the terms
of issue of the shares of that class) may, whether or not the Company is being
wound-up, be varied with the consent in writing of the holders of three-fourths
of the issued shares of that class or with the sanction of a resolution passed
by a majority of the votes cast at a separate general meeting of the holders of
the shares of the class in accordance with Section 47 (7) of the Act. The rights
conferred upon the holders of the shares of any class issued with preferred or
other rights shall not, unless otherwise expressly provided by the terms of
issue of the shares of that class, be deemed to be varied by the creation or
issue of further shares ranking pari passu therewith.

     (3) The Company may from time to time if authorised by resolution of the
Members change the currency denomination of, increase, alter or reduce its share
capital in accordance with the provisions of Sections 45 and 46 of the Act.
Where, on any alteration of share capital, fractions of shares or some other
difficulty would arise, the Board may deal with or resolve the same in such
manner as it thinks fit including, without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the issue to Members, as appropriate, of fractions of shares and/or
arranging for the sale or transfer of the fractions of shares of Members.

     (4) The Company may from time to time purchase its own shares in
accordance with the provisions of Section 42A of the Act.



                                      -32-


53.  Registered holder of shares

     (1) The Company shall be entitled to treat the registered holder of any
share as the absolute owner thereof and accordingly shall not be bound to
recognise any equitable or other claim to, or interest in, such share on the
part of any other person.

     (2) Any dividend, interest or other moneys payable in cash in respect of
shares may be paid by cheque or draft sent through the post directed to the
Member at such Member's address in the Register of Members or, in the case of
joint holders, to such address of the holder first named in the Register of
Members, or to such person and to such address as the holder or joint holders
may in writing direct. If two or more persons are registered as joint holders of
any shares any one can give an effectual receipt for any dividend paid in
respect of such shares.

54.  Death of a joint holder

     Where two or more persons are registered as joint holders of a share or
shares then in the event of the death of any joint holder or holders the
remaining joint holder or holders shall be absolutely entitled to the said share
or shares and the Company shall recognise no claim in respect of the estate of
any joint holder except in the case of the last survivor of such joint holders.

55.  Share certificates

     (1) Every Member shall be entitled to a certificate under the seal of the
Company (or a facsimile thereof) specifying the number and, where appropriate,
the class of shares held by such Member and whether the same are fully paid up
and, if not, how much has been paid thereon. The Board may by resolution
determine, either generally or in a particular case, that any or all signatures
on certificates may be printed thereon or affixed by mechanical means.

     (2) The Company shall be under no obligation to complete and deliver a
share certificate unless specifically called upon to do so by the person to whom
such shares have been allotted.

     (3) If any such certificate shall be proved to the satisfaction of the
Board to have been worn out, lost, mislaid or destroyed the Board may cause a
new certificate to be issued and request an indemnity for the lost certificate
if it sees fit.



                                      -33-


56.  Calls on shares

     (1) The Board may from time to time make such calls as it thinks fit upon
the Members in respect of any monies (whether in respect of nominal value or
premium) unpaid on the shares allotted to or held by such Members (and not made
payable at fixed times by the terms and conditions of issue) and, if a call is
not paid on or before the day appointed for payment thereof, the Member may at
the discretion of the Board be liable to pay the Company interest on the amount
of such call at such rate as the Board may determine, from the date when such
call was payable up to the actual date of payment. The joint holders of a share
shall be jointly and severally liable to pay all calls in respect thereof.

     (2) Any sum which by the terms of allotment of a share becomes payable upon
issue or at any fixed date, whether on account of the par value of the share or
by way of premium, shall for all the purposes of these Bye-laws be deemed to be
a call duly made and payable, on the date on which, by the terms of issue, the
same becomes payable, and in case of non-payment all the relevant provisions of
these Bye-laws as to payment of interest, costs, charges and expenses,
forfeiture or otherwise shall apply as if such sum had become payable by virtue
of a call duly made and notified.

     (3) The Board may, on the issue of shares, differentiate between the
holders as to the amount of calls to be paid and the times of payment of such
calls.

57.  Forfeiture of shares

     (1) If any Member fails to pay, on the day appointed for payment thereof,
any call in respect of any share allotted to or held by such Member, the Board
may, at any time thereafter during such time as the call remains unpaid, direct
the Secretary to forward to such Member a notice in the form, or as near thereto
as circumstances admit, of Form "B" in the Schedule hereto.

     (2) If the requirements of such notice are not complied with, any such
share may at any time thereafter before the payment of such call and the
interest due in respect thereof be forfeited by a resolution of the Board to
that effect, and such share shall thereupon become the property of the Company



                                      -34-


     (3) A Member whose share or shares have been forfeited as aforesaid shall,
notwithstanding such forfeiture, be liable to pay to the Company all calls owing
on such share or shares at the time of the forfeiture and all interest due
thereon.

     (4) The Board may accept the surrender of any share which it is in a
position to forfeit on such terms and conditions as may be agreed. Subject to
those terms and conditions, a surrendered share shall be treated as if it had
been forfeited.

                               REGISTER OF MEMBERS

58.  Contents of Register of Members

     The Board shall cause to be kept in one or more books a Register of Members
and shall enter therein the particulars required by the Act.

59.  Inspection of Register of Members

     The Register of Members shall be open to inspection at the registered
office of the Company on every business day, subject to such reasonable
restrictions as the Board may impose, so that not less than two hours in each
business day be allowed for inspection. The Register of Members may, after
notice has been given by advertisement in an appointed newspaper to that effect,
be closed for any time or times not exceeding in the whole thirty days in each
year.

60.  Determination of record dates

     Notwithstanding any other provision of these Bye-laws, the Board may fix
any date as the record date for:

          (a)  determining the Members entitled to receive any dividend; and

          (b)  determining the Members entitled to receive notice of and to vote
               at any general meeting of the Company.

                               TRANSFER OF SHARES

61.  Instrument of transfer

     (1) An instrument of transfer shall be in the form or as near thereto as
circumstances



                                      -35-


admit of Form "C" in the Schedule hereto or in such other form as the Board may
accept. Such instrument of transfer shall be signed by or on behalf of the
transferor and transferee provided that, in the case of a fully paid share, the
Board may accept the instrument signed by or on behalf of the transferor alone.
The transferor shall be deemed to remain the holder of such share until the same
has been transferred to the transferee in the Register of Members.

     (2) The Board may refuse to recognise any instrument of transfer unless it
is accompanied by the certificate in respect of the shares to which it relates
and by such other evidence as the Board may reasonably require to show the right
of the transferor to make the transfer.

62.  Restriction on transfer

     (1) The Board may in its absolute discretion and without assigning any
reason therefor refuse to register the transfer of a share which is not fully
paid. The Board shall refuse to register a transfer unless all applicable
consents, authorisations and permissions of any governmental body or agency in
Bermuda have been obtained.

     (2) If the Board refuses to register a transfer of any share the Secretary
shall, within three months after the date on which the transfer was lodged with
the Company, send to the transferor and transferee notice of the refusal.

63.  Transfers by joint holders

     The joint holders of any share or shares may transfer such share or shares
to one or more of such joint holders, and the surviving holder or holders of any
share or shares previously held by them jointly with a deceased Member may
transfer any such share to the executors or administrators of such deceased
Member.

                             TRANSMISSION OF SHARES

64.  Representative of deceased Member

     In the case of the death of a Member, the survivor or survivors where the
deceased Member was a joint holder, and the legal personal representatives of
the deceased Member where the deceased Member was a sole holder, shall be the
only persons recognised by the




                                      -36-


Company as having any title to the deceased Member's interest in the shares.
Nothing herein contained shall release the estate of a deceased joint holder
from any liability in respect of any share which had been jointly held by such
deceased Member with other persons. Subject to the provisions of Section 52 of
the Act, for the purpose of this Bye-law, legal personal representative means
the executor or administrator of a deceased Member or such other person as the
Board may in its absolute discretion decide as being properly authorised to deal
with the shares of a deceased Member.

65.  Registration on death or bankruptcy

     Any person becoming entitled to a share in consequence of the death or
bankruptcy of any Member may be registered as a Member upon such evidence as the
Board may deem sufficient or may elect to nominate some person to be registered
as a transferee of such share, and in such case the person becoming entitled
shall execute in favour of such nominee an instrument of transfer in the form,
or as near thereto as circumstances admit, of Form "D" in the Schedule hereto,
On the presentation thereof to the Board, accompanied by such evidence as the
Board may require to prove the title of the transferor, the transferee shall be
registered as a Member but the Board shall, in either case, have the same right
to decline or suspend registration as it would have had in the case of a
transfer of the share by that Member before such Member's death or bankruptcy,
as the case may be.

                        DIVIDENDS AND OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS

66.  Declaration of dividends by the Board

     The Board may, subject to these Bye-laws and in accordance with Section 54
of the Act, declare a dividend to be paid to the Members, in proportion to the
number of shares held by them, and such dividend may be paid in cash or wholly
or partly in specie in which case the Board may fix the value for distribution
in specie of any assets. No unpaid dividend shall bear interest as against the
Company.



                                      -37-


67.  Other distributions

     The Board may, subject to these Bye-laws, declare and make such other
distributions (in cash or in specie) to the Members as may be lawfully made out
of the assets of the Company. No unpaid distribution shall bear interest as
against the Company.

68.  Reserve fund

     The Board may from time to time before declaring a dividend set aside, out
of the surplus or profits of the Company, such sum as it thinks proper as a
reserve to be used to meet contingencies or for equalising dividends or for any
other special purpose.

69.  Payment of Dividends and Deduction of Amounts due to the Company

     (1) Any dividend or other monies payable in respect of a share may be paid
by cheque or warrant sent through the post to the registered address of the
Members (in the case of joint Members, the senior joint holder, seniority being
determined by the order in which the names stand in the Register of Members) or
person entitled thereto, or by direct bank transfer to such bank account as such
Member or person entitled thereto may direct. Every such cheque shall be made
payable to the order of the person to whom it is sent or to such persons as the
Member may direct, and payment of the cheque or warrant shall be a good
discharge to the Company. Every such cheque or warrant shall be sent at the risk
of the person entitled to the money represented thereby.

     (2) The Board may deduct from the dividends or distributions payable to any
Member all monies due from such Member to the Company on account of calls or
otherwise.

     (3) Any dividend or other monies payable in respect of a share which has
remained unclaimed for 12 years from the date when it became due for payment
shall, if the Board so resolves, be forfeited and cease to remain owing by the
Company. The payment of any unclaimed dividend or other moneys payable in
respect of a share may (but need not) be paid by the Company into an account
separate from the Company's own account. Such payment shall not constitute the
Company a trustee in respect thereof.

     (4) The Company shall be entitled to cease sending dividend warrants and
cheques by post or otherwise to a Member if those instruments have been returned
undelivered to, or left



                                      -38-


uncashed by, that Member on at least two consecutive occasions, or, following
one such occasion, reasonable enquiries have failed to establish the Member's
new address. The entitlement conferred on the Company by this Bye-law 69(4) in
respect of any Member shall cease if the Member claims a dividend or cashes a
dividend warrant or cheque.

                                 CAPITALISATION

70.  Issue of bonus shares

     (1) The Board may resolve to capitalise any part of the amount for the time
being standing to the credit of any of the Company's share premium or other
reserve accounts or to the credit of the profit and loss account or otherwise
available for distribution by applying such sum in paying up unissued shares to
be allotted as fully paid bonus shares.

     (2) The Company may capitalise any sum standing to the credit of a reserve
account or sums otherwise available for dividend or distribution by applying
such amounts in paying up in full partly paid shares of those Members who would
have been entitled to such sums if they were distributed by way of dividend or
distribution.

                        ACCOUNTS AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

71.  Records of account

     The Board shall cause to be kept proper records of account with respect to
all transactions of the Company and in particular with respect to:

          (a)  all sums of money received and expended by the Company and the
               matters in respect of which the receipt and expenditure relates;

          (b)  all sales and purchases of goods by the Company; and

          (c)  the assets and liabilities of the Company.

Such records of account shall be kept at the registered office of the Company
or, subject to Section 83 (2) of the Act, at such other place as the Board
thinks fit and shall be available for inspection by the Directors during normal
business hours.



                                      -39-


72.  Financial year end

     The financial year end of the Company may be determined by resolution of
the Board and failing such resolution shall be 31st December in each year.

                                      AUDIT

74.  Appointment of Auditor

     Subject to Section 88 of the Act, at the annual general meeting or at a
subsequent special general meeting in each year, an independent representative
of the Members shall be appointed by them as Auditor of the accounts of the
Company. Such Auditor may be a Member but no Director, Officer or employee of
the Company shall, during his or her continuance in office, be eligible to act
as an Auditor of the Company.

75.  Remuneration of Auditor

     The remuneration of the Auditor shall be fixed by the Company in general
meeting or in such manner as the Members may determine.

76.  Vacation of office of Auditor

     If the office of Auditor becomes vacant by the resignation or death of the
Auditor, or by the Auditor becoming incapable of acting by reason of illness or
other disability at a time when the Auditor's services are required, the Board
shall, as soon as practicable, convene a special general meeting to fill the
vacancy thereby created.

77.  Access to books of the Company

     The Auditor shall at all reasonable times have access to all books kept by
the Company and to all accounts and vouchers relating thereto, and the Auditor
may call on the Directors or Officers of the Company for any information in
their possession relating to the books or affairs of the Company.



                                      -40-


78.  Report of the Auditor

     (1) Subject to any rights to waive laying of accounts or appointment of an
Auditor pursuant to Section 88 of the Act, the accounts of the Company shall be
audited at least once in every year.

     (2) The financial statements provided for by these Bye-laws shall be
audited by the Auditor in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
The Auditor shall make a written report thereon in accordance with generally
accepted auditing standards and the report of the Auditor shall be submitted to
the Members in general meeting.

     (3) The generally accepted auditing standards referred to in subparagraph
(2) of this Bye-law may be those of a country or jurisdiction other than
Bermuda. If so, the financial statements and the report of the Auditor must
disclose this fact and name such country or jurisdiction.

                                     NOTICES

79.  Notices to Members of the Company

     (1) A notice may be given by the Company to any Member either by delivering
it to such Member in person or by sending it to such Member's address in the
Register of Members or to such other address given for the purpose. For the
purposes of this Bye-law, a notice may be sent by mail, courier service, cable,
telex, telecopier, facsimile or other mode of representing words in a legible
and non-transitory form.

     (2) The Company shall be under no obligation to send a notice or other
document to the address shown for any particular Member in the Register of
Members if the Board considers that the legal or practical problems under the
laws of, or the requirements of any regulatory body or stock exchange in, the
territory in which that address is situated are such that it is necessary or
expedient not to send the notice or document concerned to such Member at such
address and may require a Member with such an address to provide the Company
with an alternative acceptable address for delivery of notices by the Company.



                                      -41-


80.  Notices to joint Members

     Any notice required to be given to a Member shall, with respect to any
shares held jointly by two or more persons, be given to whichever of such
persons is named first in the Register of Members and notice so given shall be
sufficient notice to all the holders of such shares.

81.  Service and delivery of notice

     (1) Save as otherwise provided in Bye-law 81(2), any notice shall be deemed
to have been served at the time when the same would be delivered in the ordinary
course of transmission and, in proving such service, it shall be sufficient to
prove that the notice was properly addressed and prepaid, if posted, and the
time when it was posted, delivered to the courier or to the cable company or
transmitted by telex, facsimile or other method as the case may be.

     (2) Mail notice shall be deemed to have been served seven days after the
date on which it is deposited, with postage prepaid, in the mail of any member
state of the European Union, the United States or Bermuda.

                               SEAL OF THE COMPANY

time determine. The Board may adopt one or more duplicate seals for use outside
Bermuda.

     The seal of the Company shall not be affixed to any instrument except
attested by the signature of a Director and the Secretary or any two Directors,

Director, Officer or Resident Representative, may affix the seal of the Company
attested by such Director, Officer or Resident Representative's signature to any
authenticated copies of these Bye-laws, the incorporating documents of the
Company, the minutes of any meetings or any other documents required to be

84.  Winding-up/distribution by liquidator

resolution of the Members, divide amongst the Members in specie or in kind the
whole or any part of the assets of the Company (whether they shall consist of
property of the same kind or not) and may, for such purpose, set such value as
he or she deems fair upon any property to be divided as aforesaid and may
determine how such division shall be carried out as between the Members or
different classes of Members. The liquidator may, with the like sanction, vest
the whole or any part of such assets in trustees upon such trusts for the
benefit of the Members as the liquidator shall think fit, but so that no Member

there is any liability.
