shall be not less than:

(i)

90% of the Loan plus any unutilized Commitment in respect of the Tranche A Loan until June 30, 2009;

If, at any time, the Collateral Maintenance Ratio shall be less than as required above, the Agent (acting upon the instruction of the Majority Lenders) shall have the right to require the Borrower and/or the Obligors, within 30 Business Days of the date of the written demand of the Agent, to either (at the Borrower’s option):

(1)

prepay the Loan in such amount as may be necessary to cause such aggregate Fair Market Value of the Ships to equal or exceed the Collateral Maintenance Ratio;

(2)

provide such additional Collateral as may be acceptable to the Agent in its sole reasonable discretion (acting upon the instruction of the Majority Lenders) so that aggregate Fair Market Value of the Ships and such additional Collateral equals or exceeds the Collateral Maintenance Ratio,

and the Obligors hereby agree to comply with any such written demand made by the Agent.

As an alternative to (1) or (2) of this Clause 10.3(d), the Agent may agree with the Borrower to reduce any unutilized Commitment in respect of the Tranche A Loan in such amount as may be necessary to cause such aggregate Fair Market Value of the Ships plus deposits as per Clause 7.9(b) (including in respect of insurance proceeds receivable, on a pro forma basis before such proceeds are deposited with the Security Trustee) to equal or exceed the Collateral Maintenance Ratio.”
