WHEREAS, the parties wish to amend Section 3 of the Note as hereinafter set forth in detail below.


NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements herein contained, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

(A)        Section 3 of the Note is deleted in its entirety and is replaced with the following:

“3.          Interest. The Maker shall pay interest on the outstanding principal amount of this Note, which shall accrue: (i) from 1 April 2019 through 31 December 2019 (inclusive), at a rate of 0% per annum, and (ii) from 1 January 2020 through the Maturity Date, at a rate equal to the sum of (a) 5% per annum and (b) the three (3) month London Interbank Offered Rate for deposits in Dollars determined at or about 11.00 a.m. (London time) two (2) business days prior to the first day of each interest period (the “Interest Rate”). Each interest period shall be of three (3) months each, commencing on 1 January 2020. Each interest payment shall be made on the end of the respective interest period. In case the date of each interest payment is not a business day, the respective interest shall be payable on the next following business day. All interest payable under this Note shall accrue from day to day and be calculated on the basis of actual days elapsed and a 360-day year. Notwithstanding the above, the last interest period shall end on the Maturity Date.  In the event of a failure by the Maker to pay any amount on the date on which such amount is due and payable pursuant to this Note and irrespective of any notice by the Holder or any other person to the Maker in respect of such failure, the Maker shall pay interest on such amount on demand from the date of such default up to the date of actual payment at the per annum rate which is the aggregate of: (a) two point fifty per cent (2.50%); and (b) the Interest Rate.”
 
(B)
Confirmation of Agreement.  Except as expressly set forth herein, the Note is ratified and confirmed in all respects and shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its terms, and each reference in the Note to “this Note” shall mean the Note as amended by this Twelfth Amendment.

(C)
Counterparts; Effectiveness.  This Twelfth Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts (including by facsimile) and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, with the same effect as if all parties had signed the same document.  All such counterparts shall be deemed an original, shall be construed together and shall constitute one and the same instrument.  This Twelfth Amendment shall become effective when each party hereto shall have received counterparts hereof signed by all of the other parties hereto.


(D)
Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction.  This Twelfth Amendment shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York (without reference to the conflicts of law provisions thereof). Any dispute regarding this Twelfth Amendment shall be exclusively referred to arbitration in London and conducted in accordance with the Arbitration Act 1996 (England and Wales) or any statutory modification or re-enactment thereof, and the parties agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction and venue of such arbitrators. Any and all disputes hereunder shall be referred by the parties hereto to three arbitrators, each party to appoint one arbitrator and the two so appointed shall appoint the third who shall act as chairman of such panel of arbitrators.  Upon receipt by one party of the nomination in writing of such other party’s arbitrator, that party shall appoint its arbitrator within ten days, failing which the decision of the single arbitrator appointed shall apply. The two arbitrators so appointed shall appoint the third arbitrator within ten days, failing which the third arbitrator shall be appointed by the President of the London Maritime Arbitrators Association (“LMAA”) at the time within twenty one days of the two arbitrators being appointed. The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the terms of the LMAA then in effect.  The parties agree that any tribunal constituted under this Agreement shall have the power to order consolidation of proceedings or concurrent hearings in relation to any and all disputes arising out of or in connection with this Twelfth Amendment or the other documents contemplated thereby, which involve common questions of fact or law, and to make any orders ancillary to the same, including, without limitation, any orders relating to the procedures to be followed by the parties in any such consolidated proceedings or concurrent hearings. Consolidated disputes are to be heard by a maximum of three arbitrators, each party to have the right to appoint one arbitrator. In case a dispute arises as to whether consolidation is appropriate (including without limitation conflicting orders of relevant tribunals) and/or as to the constitution of the tribunal for any such consolidated proceedings, each party shall have the right to apply to the President for the time being of the LMAA for final determination of the consolidation of the proceedings and/or constitution of such tribunal.
