ASSIGNMENT OF CLAIMS AGREEMENT

Exhibit 10.1

EXECUTION VERSION

ASSIGNMENT OF CLAIMS AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) dated as of March 14, 2013 (the “Effective Date”) by and between DHT Holdings, Inc. (“Seller”) and Citigroup Financial Products Inc. (“Purchaser,” Seller and Purchaser, collectively, the “Parties,” and each, a “Party”).

RECITALS

A. Each of Dignity Chartering Corporation (“Dignity”) and Overseas Shipholding Group, Inc. (“OSG,” and together with Dignity, the “Debtors”) filed a voluntary petition for relief in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”) on November 14, 2012, commencing cases (the “Cases”) under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”), administratively consolidated as case number 12-20000 (PJW).

B. By Assignment of Claims Agreement and by Joinder to Assignment of Claims Agreement, each dated as of January 22, 2013, Seller acquired from DHT Maritime, Inc. and London Tanker Corporation (collectively, the “Original Holder”) the rights and claims underlying the Claims and the Transferred Rights (as defined below).

C. On March 6, 2013, Seller filed a proof of claim in each of the Cases, claim numbers 94 and 98,1 (the “Proofs of Claim”) in respect of Seller’s claims against the Debtors, each in the aggregate amount of $37,989,324.00, plus attorneys’ fees, for damages arising from the rejection under Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code of the bareboat charter agreement in respect of the vessel once named Ottoman Dignity and renamed Overseas London, dated as of August 28, 2007, by and between Double Hull Tankers Inc. and Dignity, the obligations under which agreements OSG has guaranteed (the “Bareboat Charter,” and the claims arising from the rejection thereof, the “Claims”). If, before distribution commences on the Claims, the Claims have been substantively consolidated into one of the Claims or the Debtors’ chapter 11 plan provides for a consolidated distribution on the Claims (“Consolidation”), then “Claim” and “Claims”, as used herein, shall refer to the single, consolidated Claim, and “Case” and “Cases”, as used herein, shall refer to the single Case under which the consolidated claim is administered.

D. Purchaser desires to purchase from Seller, and Seller desires to sell to Purchaser, the Transferred Rights (as defined herein below) on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.

1 The Parties acknowledge that claim number 96, which was intended to be included as “Exhibit C” of claim number 98 against OSG, was erroneously docketed as an additional proof of claim by Seller against Dignity. The Parties shall cooperate and make reasonable efforts to correct the error by having claim number 96 removed or withdrawn from the claims register in the Cases and correcting or amending claim number 98 to include the intended “Exhibit C.” The “Proofs of Claims” shall include claim number 96 unless and until it is removed or withdrawn from the claims register in the Cases. Removal or withdrawal of claim number 96 as contemplated in this footnote shall not constitute a disallowance, reduction, subordination, offset or other impairment for the purposes of Section 3(f) of this Agreement.

2. Assignment of the Claims.

(a) In consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements in, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged by the Parties, and upon the terms and subject to the conditions of, this Agreement:

(i) the Claims;

(ii) the Proofs of Claim (including all exhibits, attachments and supporting documentation relating thereto);

(iii) each of the documents, agreements, bills and other documents (whether now existing or hereafter arising) that evidence, create or give rise to or affect in any material way the Claims (such documents, agreements, bills and other documents collectively hereinafter referred to as the “Claim Documents”);

(iv) all rights to receive any cash, interest, fees, expenses, damages penalties and other amounts or property in respect of or in connection with the Claims, including, without limitation, any securities and other distributions made by Debtor in respect of the Claims under or pursuant to any plan of reorganization or liquidation in the Cases or otherwise;

(vi) any voting right arising out of the Claims; and

(c) Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement, the sale and assignment of the Transferred Rights hereunder shall be deemed an absolute and unconditional assignment of the Transferred Rights for the purpose of collection and satisfaction, and not an assignment or transfer to or assumption by Purchaser of any obligation of Seller or Original Holder under or in connection with the Transferred Rights, any and all of which obligations are and shall remain Seller’s or Original Holder’s (as the case may be) obligations.

3. Purchase Price and Payment.

(a) The consideration to be paid by Purchaser to Seller under this Agreement (the “Purchase Price”) is set forth on Annex 1 hereto.

(b) Upon execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Parties, and subject to satisfaction, or waiver by Purchaser, of the conditions set forth in Section 4(b), Purchaser shall pay an amount equal to the product of the Initial Payment Claim Amount and the Purchase Rate, in each case as set forth on Annex 1 hereto, (the “Initial Payment”) to Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds to Seller’s account specified on Schedule 1.

(c) For purposes of this agreement, an “Allowed Claim” is that portion, if any, of a Claim that is allowed by Final Order (defined below) as a fixed, liquidated, undisputed, general (unsubordinated) unsecured claim either (i) by a stipulation with the Debtor that is approved by order of the Bankruptcy Court or (ii) by final judicial determination of a court of competent jurisdiction. “Final Order” means an order of the Bankruptcy Court or other court of competent jurisdiction that has not been reversed, stayed, modified or amended and as to which (A) any appeal, rehearing or other review has been finally determined in a manner that does not affect such order, or (B) the time to appeal or seek a rehearing or other review has expired and no appeal, motion for reconsideration has been timely filed, and which has therefore become final under applicable law and rule.

(d) Promptly upon the satisfaction, or waiver by Purchaser, of the conditions set forth in Section 4(c) hereof, (i) to the extent that the Purchase Price is greater than the Initial Payment, Purchaser shall pay the Purchase Price, less the amount of the Initial Payment paid to Seller under Section 3(b) hereof, plus interest on the amount paid under this clause (i) from the Effective Date, at the Settlement Price Interest Rate set forth on Annex 1, (the “Settlement Price”) to Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds to Seller’s account specified on Schedule 1, and (ii) to the extent that the Purchase Price is less than the amount of the Initial Payment received by Seller, the provisions of Section 3(f) shall apply.

(e) If either of the Claims is allowed by Final Order as a valid, allowable, enforceable, non-contingent, liquidated, unsubordinated and non-disputed claim in an amount in excess of the Initial Claim Amount (such excess, the “Additional Allowed Amount”), Purchaser may elect, in its sole and absolute discretion, at the time that it pays the Settlement Price, to purchase from Seller the Additional Allowed Amount for a price equal to the Additional Allowed Amount multiplied by the OSG Purchase Rate and/or the Subsidiary Purchase Rate, as applicable (or, in the event of Consolidation, the Purchase Rate), by paying such price by wire transfer to Seller’s account on Schedule 1 hereto. Upon Purchaser’s purchase of any Additional Allowed Amount in accordance with the preceding sentence, the applicable “Claim” or “Claims” shall be deemed to include such Additional Allowed Amount for all purposes of this Agreement.

(f) If (i) either of the Claims is disallowed, reduced, subordinated, offset, or otherwise impaired, in whole or in part, as determined by a Final Order, or any other set of circumstances exists that results in the disallowance, reduction, subordination, offset, or other impairment (in whole or in part) of the Claims without the possibility of appeal, or (ii) Purchaser is not substituted for Seller to the extent of the Claims (the portion, if any, of the Initial Payment Claims Amount affected by either of the foregoing, the “Impaired Portion”), then (A) promptly upon Purchaser’s demand, Seller shall refund to Purchaser an amount equal to the Impaired Portion multiplied by the OSG Purchase Rate and/or the Subsidiary Purchase Rate, as applicable (or, in the event of Consolidation, the Purchase Rate), plus interest from the date the Initial Payment was received at the Refund Interest Rate set forth on Annex 1, (B) if requested by Seller, Purchaser shall transfer, and shall execute and deliver to Seller or any other appropriate third party documentation as necessary in Seller’s reasonable discretion to document or provide evidence of such transfer, to Seller the Impaired Portion and the related Transferred Rights acquired by Purchaser under this Agreement, and (C) except as set forth in this paragraph, each Party shall be relieved of any further obligation under this Agreement with respect to the Impaired Portion and any portion of the Claims in excess of the Initial Payment Claim Amount.

9. Authority and Further Actions.

(a) Except with respect to any Prosecution Rights (defined below) retained and reserved by Seller in accordance with 9(b) hereof, Seller hereby irrevocably appoints Purchaser as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact solely with respect to the Transferred Rights, and authorizes Purchaser to act in Seller’s name, place and stead, to demand, xxx for, compromise and recover all such amounts which are, or may hereafter become, due and payable for or on account of the Transferred Rights herein assigned. Seller hereby grants Purchaser all authority that Seller has the power to grant to do all things necessary to enforce the Transferred Rights and Seller’s rights thereunder. Seller agrees that, the powers granted in this Section 9(a) are discretionary in nature and exercisable at the sole option of Purchaser. Purchaser shall have no obligation to prove, defend, or take any affirmative action with respect to proving the validity or amount of the Transferred Rights. Seller agrees to take such further action with respect to the Transferred Rights in the Case as Purchaser may reasonably request from time to time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall not be obligated to take any action which Seller determines in good faith is not permitted under applicable law, rule, regulation, or order.

(b) Seller shall retain and reserve all right and authority to prosecute the Proof of Claim in the Case, including to amend the Proof of Claim, subject to the further requirements of this paragraph, and otherwise to seek the Claim’s allowance against the Debtor by a court of competent jurisdiction (the “Prosecution Rights”) and shall diligently act as necessary, in its reasonably exercised discretion and in good faith, to prove, defend, or otherwise to act to establish the validity and amount of the Claim, in each case at Seller’s own expense, and Purchaser hereby appoints Seller as its agent and its true and lawful attorney-in-fact solely to the extent necessary or desirable in that regard. In the event an objection to the Proof of Claim is received, Seller shall immediately notify Purchaser in writing and shall take such further action, at Seller’s own expense, as may be necessary or desirable to uphold and defend the Proof of Claim and seek the Claim’s allowance in the Case. Seller shall not modify, amend, compromise or settle the Transferred Rights without the prior written consent of Purchaser. In performing any of its obligation under this section and in otherwise complying with its obligations under this Agreement, Seller hereby covenants and agrees to act reasonably at all times and to endeavor to maximize the amount of the Claim and to minimize the amount of time in which all components of the Transferred Rights are quantified and paid. Upon the Claim becoming an Allowed Claim, Seller shall have no further obligations under this Section 9(b). Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time from and after March 31, 2014, Purchaser may (but is not obligated to), by notice to Seller, opt to take direct control of the prosecution of the Proof of Claim and the negotiation, stipulation, settlement or other resolution of the Claim, in which case Seller’s power pursuant to this paragraph (including its appointment as Purchaser’s attorney-in-fact) shall be terminated, and Seller shall cooperate with Purchaser to effectively transition such direct control to Purchaser.

(c) Except as set forth in Section 9(b) hereof, Seller consents to the substitution of Seller by Purchaser for all purposes in the Cases, including, without limitation, for voting and distribution purposes with respect to the Transferred Rights. Purchaser agrees to file, promptly after the Effective Date, the Evidence of Transfer with the Bankruptcy Court in accordance with Federal Rule of Bankruptcy Procedure 3001(e). Seller agrees to forward promptly to Purchaser all notices received from the Debtor, the Bankruptcy Court or any third party with respect to the Transferred Rights assigned herein. In the event an objection to the Claim is received by Seller, Seller shall promptly notify Purchaser in writing.

(d) Seller agrees that any distributions or payments that Seller or Original Holder receives on account of the Transferred Rights on or after the Effective Date, whether in the form of cash, securities, instruments or any other property, shall constitute property of Purchaser to which Purchaser has an absolute right. Seller shall hold such property in trust and will deliver to Purchaser any such property in the same form received, together with any endorsements or documents necessary to transfer such property to Purchaser within three business days of receipt in the case of cash and five business days in the case of any other form of property. Should all or any portion of the distributions on account of the Transferred Rights not be assignable by Seller to Purchaser, then Seller grants to Purchaser a participation interest in the Transferred Rights or such distributions, in accordance with applicable law.

10. Miscellaneous.

(a) Further Assurances. Seller agrees to execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered (including, without limitation, by causing Original Holder to execute and deliver), all such instruments and documents (including, without limitation, any supporting documents evidencing the Transferred Rights), and to take all such action as Purchaser may reasonably request, promptly upon the request of Purchaser and at Purchaser’s expense, to effectuate the intent and purpose of, and to carry out the terms of, this Agreement and to cause Purchaser, its successors and assignees, to become the legal and beneficial owner and holder of the Transferred Rights.

The rate shall be the arithmetic mean of quotations provided by Citibank, JPMorgan Chase Bank, Bank of America and Deutsche Bank (the “Reference Banks”); provided, however, that if some but not all of the four quotations are available but at least two quotations appear on the Reuters Screen LIBO Page, the rate shall be the arithmetic mean of such quotations.
