WHEREAS

(A)
|
The

|
(B)
|
The

|
(C)
|
The
Company is, through the Subsidiaries, the owner of a number of tanker, dry

assets.
|
(D)
|
It
is the Company’s policy to outsource its and the Subsidiaries’
administrative needs to other corporate entities, either owned or

2006, provided with such management services as its board required to

with, inter alia, the Manager dated 1 October 2006 (collectively, the

|
(F)
|
The

2006, provided with such general management services as their respective

by the Manager under the terms of the Admin

parts of the services provided to the Company to its affiliates, Frontline
Management AS (“FrontMan AS”) and Frontline

|
(H)
|
The
Company decided, in the first quarter of 2006, to establish a wholly owned
subsidiary, Ship Finance Management AS (“SFManagement”), for the purpose of
establishing a proprietary management team which, on market terms, would
provide the Company and the Subsidiaries with the majority of the
management services required by
them.
|
(I)
|
SFManagement
became operational on 1 May 2006 and assumed, gradually throughout the
remainder of 2006, responsibility for the provision of the management
services required by the Company and the Subsidiaries on terms orally
agreed with the board of the
Company.
|
(J)
|
The
scope and terms of the administrative services provided by SF Management
were to the Company effective from 1 January 2007 have today been
documented in a written management agreement between SFManagement and the
Company (the “General
Management Agreement”).
|
(K)
|
The
Parties have agreed to enter into this Agreement in order to document the
terms upon which the Manager, with effect from 1 January 2007, has
provided and shall continue to provide certain management services to the
Company and the Subsidiaries and, as part of such agreement, to document
the agreed cancellation of the Admin Agreements in relation to the Company
and the Subsidiaries with effect from such
date.
|
NOW THEREFORE, the Parties
have agreed as follows:
1.
|

2.2
|
