OCEANAUT, INC. SHAREHOLDERS
APPROVE DISSOLUTION AND LIQUIDATION

Athens, Greece — April 6, 2009 — Oceanaut, Inc., (NYSE AMEX: OKN; OKN.U; OKN.WS; the “Company” or “Oceanaut”) announced today that its shareholders have approved the dissolution and liquidation of the Company.

As set forth in the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, the officers of the Company will proceed to take action to dissolve the Company and distribute the funds in the Company’s trust account to those shareholders holding shares of the Company’s common stock sold in the Company’s initial public offering and to Excel Maritime Carriers Ltd. with respect to the shares of common stock included in 625,000 of the 1,125,000 of its insider units. The Company has instructed its transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, to close its stock transfer books as of the close of business on April 13, 2009 and the NYSE AMEX will suspend trading. The distributions are expected to be made on or about April 14, 2009.

As a result the Company expects to liquidate the amounts held in its trust account, which consist of the proceeds from the Company’s initial public offering and accrued interest (net of applicable taxes). Payable upon presentation, liquidating distributions of approximately $8.26 per share of common stock will be made to holders of shares of common stock issued in the Company’s initial public offering and to Excel Maritime Carriers Ltd. with respect to the shares of common stock included in 625,000 of the 1,125,000 of its insider units. No payments will be made with respect to any of the Company’s outstanding warrants or to any of the Company’s initial shareholders with respect to the shares owned by them prior to the initial public offering (except for Excel Maritime Carriers Ltd. with respect to the shares of common stock included in 625,000 of the 1,125,000 of its insider units).

The Company will file a Certificate of Termination of Registration on Form 15 with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the purpose of deregistering its securities under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. As a result, the Company will no longer be a public reporting company and its securities will cease trading on the NYSE AMEX.
