(i) in the case of a sale or transfer of a Vessel (including sale of the Shares in the Borrower owning that Vessel other than from Samco Shipholding to the Guarantor), on the earlier of the date of the actual sale and transfer by the relevant Borrower and/or the Guarantor and the date on which the proceeds from the disposal of the relevant Vessel or Shares have been received by the relevant Borrower and/or the Guarantor and/or Samco Shipholding; and

(c) If, as a result of a reduction under this Clause 7.4 (Total Loss or sale of a Vessel) becoming effective, the total principal amount outstanding under this Agreement exceeds the Available Commitment after such reduction, any such excess amount shall be repaid by the Borrowers on the date of the relevant reduction. Any amount reduced shall not be reinstated.

7.5 Market Value

If the aggregate Market Value of the Vessels is less than 135 % of the Available Commitment, the Available Commitment shall temporarily be reduced in an amount required to restore the aforesaid ratio unless the Lender and the Borrowers agree to keep the Available Commitment against additional Security being provided by the Borrowers to the satisfaction of the Lender. If, as a result of such reduction under this Clause 7.5 (Market Value) becoming effective, the total principal amount outstanding under this Agreement exceeds the Available Commitment after such reduction, any such excess amount shall be repaid by the Borrowers within thirty (30) days of such reduction. Any amount reduced under this Clause 7.5 (Market Value) shall be reinstated should new market valuations provided by the Borrowers in accordance with Clause 20.7 (Market Value) show that the aggregate Market Value of the Vessel exceeds 135% of the Available Commitment at the time of such new valuations, but only to the extent such reinstated amount does not exceed 135 % of the Available Commitment and always subject to the general reductions set out in Clause 6.2 (Reduction) and other reductions set out in this Agreement.

SECTION 5 COSTS OF UTILISATION

8. INTEREST

8.1 Calculation of interest

(a) The rate of interest on a Loan for each Interest Period is the percentage rate per annum which is the aggregate of the applicable:

(i) the Margin; and

(ii) LIBOR.

(b) It is not possible to calculate the effective interest rate on a Loan in advance. The Lender is nevertheless, according to the FA Act obliged to give a representative example. LIBOR for 3 (three) months was at 28 October 2016 0.88733 % p.a. and provided unaltered LIBOR and Margin of 2.50 % for the duration of the Facility, fees agreed hereunder and Utilisation of the full Commitment on 1 November 2016, the effective interest rate will be 3.853 % p.a.

(c) Interest shall be calculated on the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a three hundred and sixty (360) day year.

8.2 Payment of interest

The Borrowers shall pay accrued interest on the relevant Loan on each Interest Payment Date.

8.3 Default interest

(a) If any Borrower or Guarantor fails to pay any amount payable by it under a Finance Document on its due date, interest shall accrue on the overdue amount from the due date up to the date of actual payment (both before and after judgment) at a rate which, subject to paragraph (b) below, is two (2) per cent higher than the rate which would have been payable if the overdue amount had, during the period of non-payment, constituted the Loan in the currency of the overdue amount for successive Interest Periods, each of a duration selected by the Lender (acting reasonably) above the Margin. Any interest accruing under this Clause 8.3 (Default interest) shall be immediately payable by the Borrowers and/or the Guarantor on demand by the Lender.

(b) If any overdue amount consists of all or part of a Loan which became due on a day which was not the last day of an Interest Period relating to such Loan:

(i) the first Interest Period for that overdue amount shall have a duration equal to the unexpired portion of the current Interest Period relating to such Loan; and

(ii) the rate of interest applying to the overdue amount during that first Interest Period shall be two (2) per cent higher than the rate which would have applied if the overdue amount had not become due.

(c) Default interest (if unpaid) arising on an overdue amount will be compounded with the overdue amount at the end of each Interest Period applicable to that overdue amount but will remain immediately due and payable.

Page 31 of 96

8.4 Notification of rates of interest

The Lender shall promptly notify the Borrowers of the determination of a rate of interest under this Agreement.

9. INTEREST PERIODS

9.1 Selection of Interest Periods

(a) The Borrowers may select an Interest Period for a Loan in the relevant Utilisation Request.

(b) The Borrowers may select an Interest Period of one (1), three (3) or six (6) Months or any such other periods as the Lender may agree, provided however that the Borrowers may not choose more than three (3) one (1) Months Interest Periods in any calendar year.

(c) An Interest Period for a Loan shall not extend beyond the Maturity Date.

9.2 Non-Business Days

If an Interest Period would otherwise end on a day which is not a Business Day, that Interest Period will instead end on the next Business Day in that calendar month (if there is one) or the preceding Business Day (if there is not).

10. CHANGES TO THE CALCULATION OF INTEREST

10.1 Unavailability of Screen Rate

(a) Interpolated Screen Rate: If no Screen Rate is available for LIBOR for the Interest Period of a Loan, the applicable LIBOR shall be the Interpolated Screen Rate for a period equal in length to the Interest Period of that Loan.

(b) Shortened Interest Period: If no Screen Rate is available for LIBOR for:

(i) USD; or

(ii) the Interest Period of a Loan and it is not possible to calculate the Interpolated Screen Rate,

the Interest Period of that Loan shall (if it is longer than the applicable Fallback Interest Period) be shortened to the applicable Fallback Interest Period and the applicable LIBOR for that shortened Interest Period shall be determined pursuant to the definition of "LIBOR".

(c) Shortened Interest Period and Historic Screen Rate: If the Interest Period of a Loan is, after giving effect to paragraph (b) above, either the applicable Fallback Interest Period or shorter than the applicable Fallback Interest Period and, in either case, no Screen Rate is available for LIBOR for:

(i) USD; or

(ii) the Interest Period of that Loan and it is not possible to calculate the Interpolated Screen Rate,

the applicable LIBOR shall be the Historic Screen Rate for that Loan.

Page 32 of 96

(d) Shortened Interest Period and Interpolated Historic Screen Rate: If paragraph (c) above applies but no Historic Screen Rate is available for the Interest Period of that Loan, the applicable LIBOR shall be the Interpolated Historic Screen Rate for a period equal in length to the Interest Period of that Loan.

(e) Reference Bank Rate: If paragraph (d) above applies but it is not possible to calculate the Interpolated Historic Screen Rate, the Interest Period of that Loan shall, if it has been shortened pursuant to paragraph (b) above, revert to its previous length and the applicable LIBOR shall be the Reference Bank Rate as of the relevant time for USD and for a period equal in length to the Interest Period of that Loan.

(f) Cost of funds: If paragraph (e) above applies but no Reference Bank Rate is available for USD or the relevant Interest Period there shall be no LIBOR for that Loan and Clause 10.4 (Cost of funds) shall apply to that Loan for that Interest Period.

10.2 Calculation of Reference Bank Rate

(a) Subject to paragraph (b) below, if LIBOR is to be determined on the basis of a Reference Bank Rate but a Reference Bank does not supply a quotation by noon on the Quotation Day, the Reference Bank Rate shall be calculated on the basis of the quotations of the remaining Reference Banks.

(b) If at or about noon on the Quotation Day, none or only one of the Reference Banks supplies a quotation, there shall be no Reference Bank Rate for the relevant Interest Period and Clause 10.4 (Cost of funds) shall apply.

10.3 Market disruption

If before close of business in London on the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period the Lender notifies the Borrowers that the cost to it of funding its participation in a Loan from the wholesale market for USD would be in excess of LIBOR then Clause 10.4 (Cost of funds) shall apply to that Loan for the relevant Interest Period.

10.4 Cost of funds

(a) If this Clause 10.4 (Cost of funds) applies, the rate of interest on the relevant Loan for the relevant Interest Period shall be the percentage rate per annum which is the sum of:

(i) the relevant Margin; and

(ii) the rate notified by the Lender to the Borrower as soon as practicable and in any event within five (5) Business Days of the first day of that Interest Period (or, if earlier, on the date falling five (5) Business Days before the date on which interest is due to be paid in respect of that Interest Period), to be that which expresses as a percentage rate per annum the cost to the Lender of funding that Loan from whatever source it may reasonably select.

(b) If this Clause 10.4 (Cost of funds) applies and the Borrowers so require, the Lender and the Borrowers shall enter into negotiations (for a period of not more than thirty (30) days) with a view to agreeing a substitute basis for determining the rate of interest and if no agreement is reached within such period then Clause 10.4 (Cost of funds) sub-paragraph (a) shall apply.

Page 33 of 96

(d) If a Tax Deduction is required by law to be made by an Obligor, the amount of the payment due from that Obligor shall be increased to an amount which (after making any Tax Deduction) leaves an amount equal to the payment which would have been due if no Tax Deduction had been required.

18.1 Guarantee and indemnity

The Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally:

(a) guarantees to the Lender and the Hedging Bank punctual performance by the Borrowers of all the Borrowers' obligations under the Finance Documents and any Hedging Agreement.

(b) undertakes with the Lender and the Hedging Bank that whenever a Borrower does not pay any amount when due under or in connection with any Finance Document and any Hedging Agreement, it shall immediately on demand pay that amount as if it was the principal obligor; and

(c) agrees with the Lender and the Hedging Bank that if any obligation guaranteed by it is or becomes unenforceable, invalid or illegal, it will, as an independent and primary obligation, indemnify the Lender or Hedging Bank immediately on demand against any cost, loss or liability it incurs as a result of the Borrowers not paying any amount which would, but for such unenforceability, invalidity or illegality, have been payable by it under any Finance Document and any Hedging Agreement on the date when it would have been due. The amount payable by the Guarantor under this indemnity will not exceed the amount it would have had to pay under this Clause 18 (Guarantee and indemnity) if the amount claimed had been recoverable on the basis of a guarantee;

provided, however, that the maximum guarantee liability of the Guarantor hereunder shall always be limited to USD 55,000,000 plus (i) any interest, default interest, Break Cost or other costs, fees and expenses related to the Borrowers' obligations under the Finance Documents and any Hedging Agreement and (ii) any default interest or other costs, fees and expenses related to the liability of the Guarantor hereunder.

18.4 Waiver of defences

The obligations of the Guarantor under this Clause 18 (Guarantee and indemnity) will not be affected by an act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this Clause, would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under this Clause 18 (Guarantee and indemnity) (without limitation and whether or not known to it or the Lender or the Hedging Bank) including:

(a) any time, waiver or consent granted to, or composition with, the Borrowers or other person;

(b) the release of the Borrowers or any other person under the terms of any composition or arrangement with any creditor of the Borrowers;

(d) any incapacity or lack of power, authority or legal personality of or dissolution or change in the members or status of the Borrowers or any other person;

This waiver applies irrespective of any law or any provision of a Finance Document and any Hedging Agreement to the contrary.

18.6 Appropriations

Until all amounts which may be or become payable by the Borrowers under or in connection with the Finance Documents and any Hedging Agreement have been irrevocably paid in full, the Lender, the Security Trustee and the Hedging Bank (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) may:

(a) refrain from applying or enforcing any other moneys, security or rights held or received by the Lender, the Security Trustee or Hedging Bank (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) in respect of those amounts, or apply and enforce the same in such manner and order as it sees fit (whether against those amounts or otherwise) and the Guarantor shall not be entitled to the benefit of the same; and

(a) to be indemnified by the Borrowers;

(b) to claim any contribution from any other guarantor of the Borrowers' obligations under the Finance Documents or any Hedging Agreement;

(c) to take the benefit (in whole or in part and whether by way of subrogation or otherwise) of any rights of the Security Trustee, the Lender or the Hedging Bank under the Finance Documents and any Hedging Agreement or of any other guarantee or security taken pursuant to, or in connection with, the Finance Documents and any Hedging Agreement by the Security Trustee, the Lender or the Hedging Bank;

(f) to claim or prove as a creditor of the Borrowers in competition with the Security Trustee, the Lender or the Hedging Bank.
