ITEM 10. UNDERTAKINGS

Each undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate,


represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement;

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information set forth in the registration statement;

provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i), (1)(ii) and (1)(iii) do not apply if the registration statement is on Form F-3 and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrants pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in this registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(4) To file a post-effective amendment to the registration statement to include any financial statements required by Item 8.A of Form 20-F at the start of any delayed offering or throughout a continuous offering. Financial statements and information otherwise required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act need not be furnished, provided, that the registrants include in the prospectus, by means of a post-effective amendment, financial statements required pursuant to this paragraph (4) and other information necessary to ensure that all other information in the prospectus is at least as current as the date of those financial statements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to registration statements on Form F-3, a post-effective amendment need not be filed to include financial statements and information required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act or Rule 3-19 of Regulation S-X if such financial statements and information are contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrants pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in this Form F-3.

(5) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:

(i) Each prospectus filed by each registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and

(ii) Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of


the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in this registration statement or a prospectus that is part of this registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into this registration statement or a prospectus that is part of this registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in this registration statement or a prospectus that was part of this registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date; or

(6) That, for the purpose of determining liability of a registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities: The undersigned registrants undertake that in a primary offering of securities of an undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrants will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of an undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

(ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of an undersigned registrant or used or referred to by an undersigned registrant;

(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about an undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of an undersigned registrant; and

(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by an undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

The undersigned registrants hereby undertake that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

Each undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to supplement the prospectus, after the expiration of the subscription period, to set forth the results of the subscription offer, the transactions by the underwriters during the subscription period, the amount of unsubscribed securities to be purchased by the underwriters, and the terms of any subsequent reoffering thereof. If any public offering by the underwriters is to be made on terms differing from those set forth on the cover page of the prospectus, a post-effective amendment will be filed to set forth the terms of such offering.

The undersigned registrants hereby undertake to file an application for the purpose of determining the eligibility of the trustee to act under subsection (a) of Section 310 of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 in accordance with the rules and regulations prescribed by the Commission under Section 305(b)(2) of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of each of the registrants pursuant to the provisions set forth or described in Item 8 of this registration statement, or otherwise, each registrant has


been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and is therefore unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by a registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of such registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, each registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.


SIGNATURES

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the undersigned Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form F-3 and has duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in Athens, Greece, on July 1, 2009.

Tsakos Energy Navigation Limited

Athens, Greece

 

Re: Tsakos Energy Navigation Limited’s Registration Statement on Form F-3

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special Bermuda counsel to Tsakos Energy Navigation Limited, a Bermuda company (the “Company”), in connection with the filing of a Registration Statement on Form F-3, as amended, including the exhibits thereto (the “Registration Statement”), under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The Registration Statement relates to the offer and sale by the Company pursuant to Rule 415 under the Act from time to time of an indeterminate amount of securities which may include (i) its Common Shares, Preferred Shares, Warrants, Debt Securities, Depositary Shares, Purchase Contracts and Units, and (ii) its Common Shares that may be sold by or on behalf of certain selling shareholders of the Company or their donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors in interest (the “Resale Shares”, and together with the Common Shares, Preferred Shares, Warrants, Debt Securities, Depositary Shares, Purchase Contracts and Units, the “Securities”). Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms are used as defined in the Registration Statement.

In connection with this opinion, we have examined originals, or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, Certificates of Incorporation on Change of Name, Certificate of Registration of Altered Memorandum of Association, Memorandum of Association and Bye-laws (collectively, the “Constitutional Documents”), the Registration Statement and the form of prospectus included therein, the form of indenture to be entered into by the Company and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (formerly Wells Fargo Bank Minnesota, National Association), as trustee (incorporated by reference as Exhibit 4.1 to the Registration Statement) (the “Senior Indenture”), the form of subordinated indenture to be entered into by the Company and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (formerly Wells Fargo Bank Minnesota, National Association), as trustee (incorporated by reference as Exhibit 4.2 to the Registration Statement) (the “Subordinated Indenture” and collectively with the Senior Indenture referred to herein as the “Subject Agreements”), the resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Company dated May 12, 2009 (the “Resolutions”) and such other documents and records as we have deemed necessary. The documents referred to in this paragraph are collectively referred to herein as the “Documents”.

 

1


In our examination of the Documents, we have assumed, without independent investigation, the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of all individuals who have executed any of the Documents, the authenticity of all Documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to the original documents of all Documents submitted to us as certified, photostatic, reproduced or conformed copies and the authenticity of all such Documents. For the purposes of this opinion, we have relied solely upon a Certificate of the Secretary of the Company dated the date hereof as to the due adoption and continued effectiveness as of the date hereof of all the Resolutions.

with respect to the issuance and sale of any Units, that (i) a purchase agreement with respect to such Units will have been executed and delivered by the parties thereto, (ii) the purchase agreement with respect to the Units will be governed by Bermuda law, and (iii) the Units, if in certificated form, will have been duly executed and delivered in accordance with the purchase agreement upon payment of the consideration therefor provided for therein.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing and subject to the reservations set out below and to any matters not disclosed to us, we are of the opinion that:

 

1. The Resale Shares are validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

Re: Registration Statement on Form F-3

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special counsel on matters of Liberian law to Tsakos Energy Navigation Limited, a Bermuda company (the “Company”), in connection with the Company’s debt securities which have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form F-3, as amended (the “Registration Statement”).

In connection herewith, we have examined forms certified to our satisfaction of the following documents:

 

  a) that certain Senior Securities Indenture (the “Senior Indenture”) to be entered into by and among, inter alia, the Company, Wells Fargo Bank Minnesota, N.A. as Trustee and each of Avra Trading Co. Ltd., Rigoletto Shipping Company Limited, Figaro Shipping Company Limited, Azimuth Shipping Company Ltd, Bosphorus Shipping Co. Ltd., Oceana Shipping Company Ltd., Oak Shipping Co Ltd, Romeo Shipping Company Limited, Bayswater Trading Co. Ltd., Kerry Trading Company Limited and Juliet Shipping Company Limited, each a Liberian Corporation (collectively, the “Liberian Guarantors”);

 

  b) those certain Guarantees (the “Senior Indenture Subsidiary Guarantees”) to be given by, inter alia, each of the Liberian Guarantors in connection with the Senior Indenture;

  c) that certain Subordinated Securities Indenture (the “Subordinated Indenture” and together with the Senior Indenture, the “Indentures”) to be entered into by and among, inter alia, the Company, Wells Fargo Bank Minnesota, N.A. as Trustee and each of the Liberian Guarantors;

 

  d) those certain Guarantees (together with the Senior Indenture Subsidiary Guarantees, the “Subsidiary Guarantees”) to be given by, inter alia, each of the Liberian Guarantors in connection with the Subordinated Indenture;

(documents (a) through (d) above being hereinafter referred to as the “Transaction Documents”)

 

  e) the Articles of Incorporation and By-laws of each of the Liberian Guarantors (as certified by a Director of each thereof in a certificate dated May 8, 2009);

 

  f) resolutions of the Board of Directors and Shareholders of each of the Liberian Guarantors approving the execution of the Transaction Documents (as certified by a Director of each thereof in a certificate dated May 8, 2009); and

 

  g) all such other agreements, instruments, documents and certificates of public officials and of officers and directors of the Liberian Guarantors as we have deemed necessary or advisable as a basis for the opinion herein rendered.

In such examination we have, with your approval, assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity with the original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies thereof. We have also assumed the power, authority and legal right of all parties to the Transaction Documents (other than the Liberian Guarantors) to enter into and to perform their respective obligations thereunder, and the due authorization, execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents by all parties thereto (other than the Liberian Guarantors). We have further assumed due compliance of the Transaction Documents with all matters of, and the validity and enforceability thereof under, all such laws as govern or relate to them other than the laws of the Republic of Liberia in respect of which we are opining. We have also assumed for the purposes of our opinion that each of the parties to the Transaction Documents (other than the Liberian Guarantors) has complied with all legal requirements pertaining to its status as such status relates to its rights to enforce the Transaction Documents against the Liberian Guarantors. Moreover, we have assumed that none of the Transaction Documents has been or will have been amended, modified or supplemented in any material way from the forms presented to us prior to its execution, whether by written agreement, course of conduct or otherwise. We have further assumed that any consents, licenses, permits, approvals, exemptions or authorizations required of or by, and any required registrations or filings with, any governmental authority or regulatory body of any jurisdiction other than the Republic of Liberia in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents have been duly obtained or made.

As to questions of fact material to our opinion, we advise you that we have not conducted an independent investigation thereof and have relied exclusively upon the representations set forth in the Transaction Documents and the aforementioned agreements, instruments, documents and certificates of public officials and of officers and directors of the Liberian Guarantors.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing and having regard to legal considerations we deem relevant, we are of the opinion that, insofar as the laws of the Republic of Liberia are concerned:

The Subsidiary Guarantees have been duly authorized by the Liberian Guarantors, and, when issued, assuming due authentication thereof by the Trustee and upon acceptance of the debt securities by the holders thereof, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Liberian Guarantors, entitled to the benefits of the Indentures and enforceable against the Liberian Guarantors in accordance with their terms.

We qualify our opinion to the extent that (a) the enforceability of the rights and remedies provided for in the Transaction Documents (i) may be limited by insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer, fraudulent conveyance or other similar laws affecting generally the enforceability of creditors’ rights from time to time in effect and (ii) is subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law, including application of principles of good faith, fair dealing, commercial reasonableness, materiality, unconscionability and conflict with public policy and other similar principles; and (b) different results might be obtained under laws other than those of the Republic of Liberia by which the Transaction Documents or any of them are expressed to be governed.

This opinion expressed above is limited to matters of law of the Republic of Liberia. We express no opinion with respect to the law of any other jurisdiction.

Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on Form F-3

Filed June 12, 2009

File No. 333-159218

Dear Ms. Ravitz:

On behalf of our client, Tsakos Energy Navigation Limited (the “Company”), we are responding to the comments set forth in the comment letter from the (the “Staff”) of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) dated June 23, 2009 in respect of the Company’s Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment No. 1”) to the Registration Statement on Form F-3 (the “Registration Statement”) filed with the Commission on June 12, 2009. To respond to the Staff’s comments, the Company is filing concurrently with this letter pre-effective Amendment No. 2 to the Registration Statement (“Amendment No. 2”), including revised Exhibits 5.1 and 5.3, and for the convenience of the Staff, we are providing to the Staff by overnight delivery four (4) copies of this letter and marked copies of Amendment No. 2 and Exhibits 5.1 and 5.3 (against Amendment No. 1 and Exhibits 5.1 and 5.3, respectively, filed on June 12, 2009).

The numbered paragraphs in bold herein restate the numbered paragraphs in the Staff’s letter to the Company, and the discussion set out below each such paragraph is the Company’s response to the Staff’s comment.

Exhibit 5.1

 

  1. We note your response to prior comment 6; however, please provide us with additional analysis explaining the purpose of defining the term “non-assessable” under Bermuda law in light of the fact that the opinion is to be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Bermuda. Alternatively, delete the definition.

Response: The opinion of Mello Jones & Martin filed as Exhibit 5.1 to Amendment No. 2 has been revised by deleting the definition of the term “non-assessable.”

 

  2. We note your response to prior comment 8; however, please revise the last sentence of the second to last paragraph to state that the opinion speaks as of the date of effectiveness or confirm that you will re-file the opinion dated the date of effectiveness.

Response: The opinion of Mello Jones & Martin filed as Exhibit 5.1 to Amendment No. 2 has been revised by deleting the last sentence of the second to last paragraph of the opinion, which stated, among other things, that the opinion spoke as of its date and that counsel assumed no obligation to review or update the opinion if applicable laws or existing facts or circumstances changed.

Exhibit 5.3

 

  3. We note your response to prior comment 10; however, please delete or substantially revise the second paragraph on page 3. In this connection, we note the following:

 

   

In the second sentence, counsel states that it is not admitted to practice before the courts of the Republic of Liberia. Because you are opining on Liberian law, a jurisdictional qualification regarding Liberian law is inappropriate. Please provide a revised opinion that does not contain this qualification.

 

   

Counsel lists a number of specific laws that it examined in order to render its opinion, including the Liberian Business Corporation Act of 1976, including amendments thereto through June 19, 2002 and the Liberian Internal Revenue Code, Personal and Business Income Tax Law, including amendments thereto through November 19, 1994 with exceptions, among others. These limitations on the scope of the laws counsel reviewed are impermissible because the opinion must speak to the jurisdiction’s complete body of applicable laws as of the date the securities are sold. Please revise the opinion to state that counsel’s opinion is based on its review of the applicable statutory provisions, the rules and regulations underlying those provisions, and the applicable judicial and regulatory determinations of the Republic of Liberia.


United States Securities and Exchange Commission

July 1, 2009

Page 3

 

   

We note your disclosure in the second to last sentence that you assumed that the Liberian laws “have not been the subject to any further amendments.” We also note your disclosure in the last sentence that each of the Liberian Guarantors has duly appointed a registered agent in the Republic of Liberia. Counsel may not assume material facts underlying its opinion or assume facts that are readily ascertainable. Please delete these assumptions.

Response: The opinion of Seward & Kissel LLP filed as Exhibit 5.3 to Amendment No. 2 has been revised by deleting the second paragraph on page 3.

 

  4. We note your response to prior comment 11; however, please revise the second to last sentence of the penultimate paragraph to state that the opinion speaks as of the date of effectiveness or confirm that you will re-file the opinion dated the date of effectiveness.

Response: The opinion of Seward & Kissel LLP filed as Exhibit 5.3 to Amendment No. 2 has been revised by deleting the second to last sentence of the penultimate paragraph of the opinion, which stated that the opinion was rendered as of its date and counsel had no responsibility to update the opinion for events or circumstances occurring after the date of the opinion or for any change in applicable laws after the date of the opinion.

***

Tsakos Energy Navigation Limited (the “Company”) acknowledges that:

 

   

the Company is responsible for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the filing referred to herein;

 

   

Staff comments or changes to disclosure in response to Staff comments do not foreclose the Commission from taking any action with respect to the filings; and

 

   

the Company may not assert Staff comments as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities laws of the United States.
