*We have outstanding a variable-to-fixed interest rate swap with respect to a Yen-based facility for the financing of a PCTC delivered in March 2010. The notional amount under this contract is $46.5 million (based on a Yen to USD exchange rate of 101.33 as of June 30, 2014). With the bank exercising its option to reduce the underlying Yen loan from 80% to 65% funding of the vessel’s delivery cost, the 15% reduction represents the ineffective portion of this swap, which consists of the portion of the derivative instrument that is no longer supported by underlying borrowings. The change in fair value related to the ineffective portion of this swap is reflected in our statement of income (loss) for the second quarter of 2014 as a $18,000 loss. The fair value balance as of June 30, 2014, includes a negative $555,000 balance related to an interest rate swap associated with our 25% investment in Oslo Bulk AS.
