Section 2. Amount and Terms of Credit Facility.

2.01 The Loans. (a) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender severally agrees to make a term loan or term loans (each, a “Loan” and, collectively, the “Loans”) to the Borrower, which Loans of such Lender: (i) may only be incurred pursuant to a single drawing on the Closing Date, (ii) shall be denominated in Dollars and (iii) shall be in a principal amount equal to the lesser of (x) the Commitment of such Lender and (y) such Lender’s pro rata share of the Available Commitment. Once repaid, Loans incurred hereunder may not be reborrowed.

(b) The available commitment (the “Available Commitment”) under this Agreement shall be equal to the lesser of (i) $60,174,000 and (ii) 65% of the Contract Price.

2.02 Notice of Borrowing. Whenever the Borrower desires to incur Loans hereunder, it shall give the Facility Agent at the Notice Office at least two Business Days’ prior notice of each Loan to be incurred hereunder, provided that (in each case) any such notice shall be deemed to have been given on a certain day only if given before 12:00 Noon (New York time) on such day. Each such written notice (each, a “Notice of Borrowing”), except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 2.08, shall be irrevocable and shall be given by the Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1, appropriately completed to specify and include:

(a) the aggregate principal amount of the Loans to be incurred pursuant to such Borrowing,

(b) the calculations required to establish whether the Borrower is in compliance with the provisions of Section 2.01,

(d) the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto in accordance with Section 2.07.

The Facility Agent shall promptly (and in no event less than two Business Days prior to the Closing Date) give each Lender notice of such proposed Borrowing, of such Lender’s proportionate share thereof and of the other matters required by the immediately preceding sentence to be specified in the Notice of Borrowing.

2.03 Disbursement of Funds. Except as otherwise specifically provided in the immediately succeeding sentence, no later than 12:00 Noon (New York time) on the date specified in each Notice of Borrowing, each Lender will make available its pro rata portion of each such Borrowing requested to be made on such date. All such amounts shall be made available in Dollars and in immediately available funds at the Payment Office of the Facility Agent and the Facility Agent will make available to the Borrower (on such day to the extent of funds actually received by the Facility Agent prior to 12:00 Noon (New York time) on such day) at the Payment Office, in the account specified in the applicable Notice of Borrowing, the aggregate of the amounts so made available by the Lenders. Unless the Facility Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the date of Borrowing that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Facility Agent such Lender’s portion of any Borrowing to be made on such date, the Facility Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Facility Agent on such date of Borrowing and the Facility Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Facility Agent by such Lender, the Facility Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Facility Agent’s demand therefor, the Facility Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Facility Agent. The Facility Agent shall also be entitled to recover on demand from such Lender or the Borrower, as the case may be, interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Facility Agent to the Borrower until the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Facility Agent, at a rate per annum equal to (i) if recovered from such

Lender, the overnight Federal Funds Rate and (ii) if recovered from the Borrower, the rate of interest applicable to the respective Borrowing, as determined pursuant to Section 2.06.

2.04 Notes. (a) The Borrower’s obligation to pay the principal of, and interest on, the Loans made by each Lender shall be evidenced in the Register maintained by the Facility Agent pursuant to Section 11.17 and shall, if requested by such Lender, also be evidenced by a promissory note duly executed and delivered by the Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit B, with blanks appropriately completed in conformity herewith (each, a “Note” and, collectively, the “Notes”).

(b) Each Note shall (i) be executed by the Borrower, (ii) be payable to such Lender or its registered assigns and be dated the Closing Date, (iii) be in a stated principal amount equal to the outstanding Loans of such Lender and be payable in the outstanding principal amount of Loans evidenced thereby, (iv) mature on the Maturity Date, (v) bear interest as provided in Section 2.06 in respect of the Loans evidenced thereby, (vi) be subject to voluntary prepayment as provided in Section 4.01, and mandatory repayment as provided in Section 4.02, and (vii) be entitled to the benefits of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents.

(c) Each Lender will note on its internal records the amount of each Loan made by it and each payment in respect thereof and will, prior to any transfer of any of its Notes, endorse on the reverse side thereof the outstanding principal amount of Loans evidenced thereby. Failure to make any such notation or any error in any such notation or endorsement shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations in respect of such Loans.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above in this Section 2.04 or elsewhere in this Agreement, Notes shall be delivered only to Lenders that at any time specifically request the delivery of such Notes. No failure of any Lender to request or obtain a Note evidencing its Loans to the Borrower shall affect or in any manner impair the obligations of the Borrower to pay the Loans (and all related Obligations) incurred by the Borrower that would otherwise be evidenced thereby in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement, and shall not in any way affect the security or guaranties therefor provided pursuant to the Credit Documents. Any Lender that does not have a Note evidencing its outstanding Loans shall in no event be required to make the notations on such Note otherwise described in preceding clause (c). At any time (including, without limitation, to replace any Note that has been destroyed or lost) when any Lender requests the delivery of a Note to evidence any of its Loans, the Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to such Lender the requested Note in the appropriate amount or amounts to evidence such Loans provided that, in the case of a substitute or replacement Note, the Borrower shall have received from such requesting Lender (i) an affidavit of loss or destruction and (ii) a customary lost/destroyed Note indemnity, in each case in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Borrower and such requesting Lender, and duly executed by such requesting Lender.

2.05 Pro Rata Borrowings. All Borrowings of Loans under this Agreement shall be incurred from the Lenders pro rata on the basis of their Commitments. The obligations of the Lender hereunder to make Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 10.06 are several and not joint. It is understood that no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other

Lender of its obligation to make Loans or make any payment under Section 10.06 hereunder and each Lender shall be obligated to make the Loans to be made by it hereunder regardless of the failure of any other Lender to make its Loans and payments hereunder.

2.06 Interest. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay interest in respect of the unpaid principal amount of each Loan from the date the proceeds thereof are made available to the Borrower until the maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) of such Loan at a rate per annum which shall, during each Interest Period applicable thereto, be equal to the sum of the Applicable Margin and the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period, as in effect from time to time.

(b) If the Borrower fails to pay any amount payable by it under a Credit Document on its due date, interest shall accrue on the overdue amount (in the case of overdue interest to the extent permitted by law) from the due date up to the date of actual payment (both before and after judgment) at a rate which is, subject to paragraph (c) below, 2% plus the rate which would have been payable if the overdue amount had, during the period of non payment, constituted a Loan for successive Interest Periods, each of a duration selected by the Facility Agent. Any interest accruing under this Section 2.06(b) shall be immediately payable by the Borrower on demand by the Facility Agent.

(c) 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 that Loan; and

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

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.

(d) Accrued and unpaid interest shall be payable (i) on the last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto and, in the case of an Interest Period in excess of three months, on each date occurring at three month intervals after the first day of such Interest Period and (ii) on any repayment or prepayment (on the amount repaid or prepaid), at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and, after such maturity, on demand.

(e) Upon each Interest Determination Date, the Facility Agent shall determine the Eurodollar Rate for each Interest Period applicable to the Loans made or to be made pursuant to the applicable Borrowing and shall promptly notify the Borrower and the respective Lenders thereof. Each such determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all parties hereto.

2.07 Interest Periods. (a) The Borrower shall give the Facility Agent at its Notice Office written notice at least two Business Days’ prior to (x) the Closing Date (in the case of the initial Interest Period applicable to any Loans) and (y) the expiration of an Interest Period applicable to such Loans (in the case of any subsequent Interest Period), which notice shall be deemed to have been given on a certain day only if given before 11:00 A.M. (New York time), electing the interest period (each an “Interest Period”) applicable to such Loan. Each such written notice (each a “Notice of Interest Period Election”), except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 2.08, shall be irrevocable and shall be given by the Borrower in the form of Exhibit A-2, appropriately completed to specify (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Loans to be included in the Borrowing (if applicable), (ii) the commencement date of the applicable Interest Period (which shall be a Business Day) and (iii) at the option of the Borrower, whether the applicable Interest Period will be a one, three or six month period (or such other period as all the Lenders may agree); provided that:

(i) there shall be no more than three Interest Periods at any time;

(ii) the initial Interest Period for each Loan shall commence on the Closing Date and each Interest Period occurring thereafter in respect of such Loan shall commence on the day on which the immediately preceding Interest Period applicable thereto expires;

(iii) if any Interest Period relating to a Loan begins on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period, such Interest Period shall end on the last Business Day of such calendar month;

(iv) if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the first succeeding Business Day; provided, however, that if any Interest Period for a Loan would otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day but is a day of the month after which no further Business Day occurs in such month, such Interest Period shall expire on the immediately preceding Business Day;

(v) no Interest Period longer than one month may be selected at any time when an Event of Default (or, if the Facility Agent or the Required Lenders have determined that such an election at such time would be disadvantageous to the Lenders, a Default) has occurred and is continuing;

(vi) no Interest Period in respect of any Borrowing of any Loans shall be selected which extends beyond the Maturity Date; and

(vii) any Interest Period commencing less than one month prior to the Maturity Date shall end on the Maturity Date.

If upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to a Borrowing of Loans, the Borrower has failed to deliver a Notice of Interest Period Election in respect of such Loans as provided above, the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected a three month Interest Period to be applicable to such Loans effective as of the expiration date of such current Interest Period.

(b) Without in any way limiting the obligation of the Borrower to deliver a written Notice of Interest Period Election in accordance with Section 2.07(a), the Facility Agent

may act without liability upon the basis of telephonic notice of such Interest Period election, believed by the Facility Agent in good faith to be from the President, the Treasurer or the Secretary of the Borrower (or any other officer of the Borrower designated in writing to the Facility Agent by the President, Treasurer or the Secretary of the Borrower as being authorized to give such notices under this Agreement) prior to receipt of Notice of Interest Period Election. In each such case, the Borrower hereby waives the right to dispute the Facility Agent’s record of the terms of such telephonic notice of such Interest Period election of Loans, absent manifest error.

2.08 Increased Costs, Illegality, Market Disruption Event, etc.

(a) In the event that any Lender shall have determined in good faith (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto):

(i) at any time, that such Lender shall incur increased costs or reductions in the amounts received or receivable hereunder with respect to any Loan because of, without duplication, the introduction of or effectiveness of or any Change in Law since the Effective Date in any applicable law or governmental rule, regulation, order, guideline, directive or request (whether or not having the force of law) concerning capital adequacy or otherwise or in the interpretation or administration thereof and including the introduction of any new law or governmental rule, regulation, order, guideline or request, such as, for example, but not limited to: (A) a change in the basis of taxation of payment to any Lender of the principal of or interest on such Loan or any other amounts payable hereunder (except for changes in the rate of tax on, or determined by reference to, the net income or net profits of such Lender pursuant to the laws of the jurisdiction in which such Lender or the entity controlling such Lender is organized or in which the principal office of such Lender or the entity controlling such Lender or such Lender’s applicable lending office is located or any subdivision thereof or therein), but without duplication of any amounts payable in respect of Taxes pursuant to Section 4.04, (B) a change in official reserve requirements but, in all events, excluding reserves required under Regulation D to the extent included in the computation of the Eurodollar Rate, or (C) a change that will have the effect of increasing the amount of capital adequacy required or requested to be maintained by such Lender, or any corporation controlling such Lender, based on the existence of such Lender’s Commitments hereunder or its obligations hereunder; or

(ii) at any time, that the making or continuance of any Loan has been made unlawful by any law or governmental rule, regulation or order;

then, and in any such event, such Lender shall promptly give notice (by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrower and, in the case of clause (ii) above, to the Facility Agent of such determination (which notice the Facility Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the Lenders). Thereafter (x) in the case of clause (i) above, the Borrower agrees (to the extent applicable), to pay to such Lender, upon its written demand therefor, such additional amounts as shall be required to compensate such Lender or such other corporation for the increased costs or reductions to such Lender or such other corporation and (y) in the case of clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall take one of the actions specified in Section 2.08(b) as promptly as possible and,

in any event, within the time period required by law. In determining such additional amounts, each Lender will act reasonably and in good faith and will use averaging and attribution methods which are reasonable, provided that such Lender’s determination of compensation owing under this Section 2.08(a) shall, absent manifest error be final and conclusive and binding on all the parties hereto. Each Lender, upon determining that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 2.08(a), will give prompt written notice thereof to the Borrower, which notice shall show in reasonable detail the basis for the calculation of such additional amounts; provided that, subject to the provisions of Section 2.11(b), the failure to give such notice shall not relieve the Borrower from its obligations hereunder.

(b) At any time that any Loan is affected by the circumstances described in Section 2.08(a)(i), the Borrower may, and in the case of a Loan affected by the circumstances described in Section 2.08(a)(ii), the Borrower shall, either (x) if the affected Loan is then being made initially, cancel the respective Borrowing by giving the Facility Agent telephonic notice (confirmed in writing) on the same date or the next Business Day that such Borrower was notified by the affected Lender or the Facility Agent pursuant to Section 2.08(a)(i) or (ii) or (y) if the affected Loan is then outstanding, upon at least three Business Days’ written notice to the Facility Agent, in the case of any Loan, repay all outstanding Borrowings (within the time period required by the applicable law or governmental rule, governmental regulation or governmental order) which include such affected Loans in full in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 4.02; provided that if more than one Lender is affected at any time, then all affected Lenders must be treated the same pursuant to this Section 2.08(b).

(c) If a Market Disruption Event occurs in relation to a Loan for any Interest Period, then the rate of interest on each Lender’s share of such Loan for the relevant Interest Period shall be the rate per annum which is the sum of:

(i) the Applicable Margin; and

(ii) the rate determined by each Lender and notified to the Facility Agent, which expresses the actual cost to each such Lender of funding its participation in such Loan for a period equivalent to such Interest Period from whatever source it may reasonably select.

(d) If a Market Disruption Event occurs and the Facility Agent or the Borrower so require, the Facility Agent and the Borrower shall enter into negotiations (for a period of not more than thirty days) with a view to agreeing a substitute basis for determining the rate of interest. Any alternative basis agreed pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall, with the prior consent of all the Lenders and the Borrower, be binding on all parties. If no agreement is reached pursuant to this clause (d), the rate provided for in clause (c) above shall apply for the entire Interest Period.

(e) If any Reference Bank ceases to be a Lender under this Agreement, (x) it shall cease to be a Reference Bank and (y) the Facility Agent shall, with the approval (which shall not be unreasonably withheld) of the Borrower, nominate as soon as reasonably practicable another Lender to be a Reference Bank in place of such Reference Bank.

(f) The Facility Agent may not disclose to any Lender any details of the rate notified to the Facility Agent by any other Lender acting as a Reference Bank for the purposes of Section 2.08(c) and (d).

2.09 Compensation. The Borrower agrees to compensate each Lender, upon its written request (which request shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting and the calculation of such compensation, provided that no Lender shall be required to disclose any information that would be confidential or price sensitive), for all reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities (including, without limitation, any such loss, expense or liability incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds required by such Lender to fund its Loans but excluding any loss of anticipated profits) which such Lender may sustain in respect of Loans made to the Borrower: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Lender or the Facility Agent) the Loans are not drawn on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing, (ii) if any prepayment or repayment (including any prepayment or repayment made pursuant to Section 2.08(a), Section 4.01 or Section 4.02 or as a result of an acceleration of the Loans pursuant to Section 9) of any of its Loans, or assignment of its Loans pursuant to Section 2.11, occurs on a date which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto; (iii) if any prepayment of any of its Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by the Borrower; or (iv) as a consequence of any other Default or Event of Default arising as a result of the Borrower’s failure to repay Loans or make payment on any Note held by such Lender when required by the terms of this Agreement.

2.10 Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that on the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.08(a)(ii), Section 2.08(b) or Section 4.04 with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable good faith efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans affected by such event, provided that such designation is made on such terms that such Lender and its lending office suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, with the object of avoiding the consequence of the event giving rise to the operation of such Section. Nothing in this Section 2.10 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the rights of any Lender provided in Section 2.08 or Section 4.04.

2.11 Replacement of Lenders. (a) (x) If any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, (y) upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.08(a)(i) or (ii), Section 2.08(b) or Section 4.04 with respect to any Lender which results in such Lender charging to the Borrower material increased costs in excess of those being generally charged by the other Lenders, or (z) as provided in Section 11.13(b) in the case of certain refusals by a Lender to consent to certain proposed changes, waivers, discharges or terminations with respect to this Agreement which have been approved by the Required Lenders, the Borrower shall have the right, if no Default or Event of Default will exist immediately after giving effect to the respective replacement, to either replace such Lender (the “Replaced Lender”) with one or more other Eligible Transferee or Eligible Transferees, none of whom shall constitute a Defaulting Lender at the time of such replacement (collectively, the “Replacement Lender”) reasonably acceptable to the Facility Agent; provided that:

(i) at the time of any replacement pursuant to this Section 2.11, the Replacement Lender shall enter into one or more Assignment and Assumption

Agreements pursuant to Section 11.04(b) (and with all fees payable pursuant to said Section 11.04(b) to be paid by the Replacement Lender) pursuant to which the Replacement Lender shall acquire all of the outstanding Loans of the Replaced Lender and, in connection therewith, shall pay to the Replaced Lender in respect thereof an amount equal to the sum (without duplication) of an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Loans of the Replaced Lender; and

(ii) all obligations of the Borrower due and owing to the Replaced Lender at such time (other than those specifically described in clause (i) above) in respect of which the assignment purchase price has been, or is concurrently being, paid shall be paid in full to such Replaced Lender concurrently with such replacement.

(b) Upon receipt by the Replaced Lender of all amounts required to be paid to it pursuant to this Section 2.11, the Facility Agent shall be entitled (but not obligated) and is authorized (which authorization is coupled with an interest) to execute an Assignment and Assumption Agreement on behalf of such Replaced Lender, and any such Assignment and Assumption Agreement so executed by the Facility Agent and the Replacement Lender shall be effective for purposes of this Section 2.11 and Section 11.04. Upon the execution of the respective Assignment and Assumption Agreement, the payment of amounts referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) above and, if so requested by the Replacement Lender, delivery to (i) the Replacement Lender of the appropriate Note or Notes executed by the Borrower, the Replacement Lender shall become a Lender hereunder and the Replaced Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder, except with respect to indemnification provisions under this Agreement (including, without limitation, Sections 2.08, 2.09, 4.04, 12.01 and 12.06), which shall survive as to such Replaced Lender and (ii) if so requested by the Borrower, the Replaced Lender shall deliver all Notes in its possession to the Borrower.

3.01 Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Facility Agent, the Mandated Lead Arranger and the Lender, the fees set forth in the Fee Letter.

3.02 Mandatory Reduction of Commitments. The Commitment of each Lender shall terminate permanently in its entirety on the Effective Date (after giving effect to the incurrence of Loans on such date).

Section 4. Prepayments; Payments; Taxes.

4.01 Voluntary Prepayments. The Borrower shall have the right to prepay, at any time, the Loans, without premium or penalty except as provided by law and Section 2.09, in whole or in part at any time and from time to time on the following terms and conditions:

(a) the Borrower shall give the Facility Agent, prior to 12:00 Noon (New York time) at its Notice Office, at least three Business Days’ (or such shorter period as the lenders may agree) prior written notice (including e-mail notice or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of its intent to prepay such Loans, the amount of such prepayment and the specific Borrowing or Borrowings pursuant to which such Loans were made, which notice the Facility Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the Lenders;

(b) each partial prepayment of Loans pursuant to this Section 4.01 shall be in an aggregate principal amount of at least $1,000,000 or such lesser amount of a Borrowing which is outstanding, provided that no partial prepayment of Loans made pursuant to any Borrowing shall reduce the outstanding Loans made pursuant to such Borrowing to an amount less than $1,000,000;

(e) except as expressly provided in the preceding clause (d), each prepayment pursuant to this Section 4.01 in respect of any Loans made pursuant to a Borrowing shall be applied pro rata among the Loans comprising such Borrowing, provided that, at the Borrower’s election, in connection with any prepayment of Loans pursuant to this Section 4.01, such prepayment shall not be applied to any Loan of a Defaulting Lender until all other Loans of Non-Defaulting Lenders have been repaid in full; and

; provided that, if the Extension Conditions are not satisfied on or prior to the Relevant Date, all Scheduled Repayments for all Payment Dates set forth above occurring on or after December 31, 2016 shall be due and payable on the Initial Maturity Date.

(b) In addition to any other mandatory repayments pursuant to this Section 4.02, but without duplication, on (i) the date of any Collateral Disposition involving the Collateral Vessel (other than a Collateral Disposition constituting an Event of Loss) and (ii) with respect to a Collateral Disposition constituting an Event of Loss, the earlier of (A) the date which is 120 days following such Event of Loss and (B) the date of receipt by the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or the Facility Agent of the insurance proceeds relating to such Event of Loss, the Borrower shall be required to repay an aggregate principal amount of outstanding Loans in full.

(c) In addition to any other mandatory repayments pursuant to this Section 4.02, upon the occurrence of a default under Section 8.07(d), the Borrower shall be required to repay Loans in accordance with the requirements of Section 8.07(d) in an amount required to cure such default; provided that it is understood and agreed that the requirement to repay Loans under this Section 4.02(c) shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any other right or remedy that any Lender may have as a result of an Event of Default under Section 8.07(d).

(d) In addition to any other mandatory repayments pursuant to this Section 4.02, on the date of the initial funding under any Sinosure Facility, the Borrower shall be required to repay the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Loans in full.

(e) All repayments of the Loans pursuant to Sections 4.01 and 4.02 shall be applied to the repayment of the Loans then outstanding on a pro rata basis.

(f) The amount of all repayments of Loans pursuant to Sections 4.01 and 4.02(c) shall be applied to reduce the then remaining Scheduled Repayments pro rata based upon the then remaining Scheduled Repayments after giving effect to all prior reductions thereto.

(g) With respect to each repayment of Loans under Section 4.01 or required by this Section 4.02, the Borrower may designate the specific Borrowing or Borrowings pursuant to which such Loans were made, provided that (i) all Loans with Interest Periods ending on such date of required repayment shall be paid in full prior to the payment of any other Loans and (ii) each repayment of any Loans comprising a Borrowing shall be applied pro rata among such Loans. In the absence of a designation by the Borrower as described in the preceding sentence, the Facility Agent shall, subject to the preceding provisions of this clause (f), make such designation in its sole reasonable discretion with a view, but no obligation, to minimize breakage costs owing pursuant to Section 2.09.

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement, all then outstanding Loans shall be repaid in full on the Maturity Date.

(i) The Loans repaid pursuant to Section 4.01 and this Section 4.02 may not be reborrowed.

4.03 Method and Place of Payment. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all payments under this Agreement or any Note shall be made to the Facility Agent for the account of the Lender or Lenders entitled thereto not later than 12:00 Noon (New York time) on the date when due and shall be made in Dollars in immediately available funds at the Payment Office of the Facility Agent or such other office in the State of New York as the Facility Agent may hereafter designate in writing. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder or under any Note shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest shall be payable at the applicable rate during such extension.

4.04 Net Payments; Taxes. (a) All payments made by any Credit Party hereunder or under any Note will be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense. All such payments will be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes imposed with respect to such payments unless required by applicable law. If applicable law requires the deduction or withholding of any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under any Note, then:

(i) the Borrower shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding,

(ii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxing authority, and

(iii) in the case of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, the Borrower agrees to pay the full amount of such Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes, and such additional amounts as may be necessary so that every payment of all amounts due

under this Agreement or under any Note, after withholding or deduction for or on account of any Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes, will not be less than the amount provided for herein or in such Note.

The Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Facility Agent), or by the Facility Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. In the event the Borrower pays amounts deducted and withheld to the relevant taxing authority in respect of Indemnified Taxes, the Borrower will furnish to the Facility Agent within 45 days after the date of payment of any Indemnified Taxes is due pursuant to applicable law certified copies of Tax receipts evidencing such payment by the Borrower. The Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Lender, and reimburse such Lender upon its written request, for the amount of any Indemnified Taxes so levied or imposed and paid by such Lender.

(b) Without duplicating the payments under subsection (a) above, the Borrower agrees to pay any and all present or future stamp, court or documentary Taxes and any other excise (in the nature of a documentary or similar Tax), property, intangible, filing or mortgage recording Taxes or charges or similar levies imposed by any Governmental Authority which arise from the execution, delivery, performance, enforcement or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Note excluding (i) such amounts imposed in connection with an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, grant of a participation, transfer or assignment to or designation of a new applicable lending office or other office for receiving payments under any Note, except to the extent that any such change is requested in writing by a Borrower and (ii) the registration or presentation of a Note is mandatorily required by law (all such non-excluded Taxes described in this Section 4.04(b) being referred to as “Other Taxes”).

(c) Any Recipient that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Credit Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Facility Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Facility Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Facility Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Recipient, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Facility Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Facility Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Facility Agent to determine whether or not such Recipient is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation shall not be required if in the Recipient’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Recipient to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Recipient.

(d) If the Facility Agent or a Lender determines in its sole discretion that it has actually received or realized a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by a Credit Party or with respect to which such Credit Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to Section 4.04(a), it shall pay over such refund to such Credit Party (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Credit Party under Section 4.04(a) with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Facility Agent or such Lender (including any Taxes imposed with respect to such refund) as is determined in the sole discretion of the Facility Agent or Lender in good faith, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). In the event the Facility Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority, then such Credit Party, upon the written request of the Facility Agent or such Lender, agrees to promptly repay the amount paid over to such Credit Party (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority, but without any other interest, penalties or charges) to the Facility Agent or such Lender. Nothing in this Section 4.04(d) shall require a Lender to disclose any confidential information (including, without limitation, its Tax returns or its calculations).

(e) If a payment made to a Lender under any Note would be subject to withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Facility Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Facility Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code or an intergovernmental agreement) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Facility Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Facility Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this paragraph (e), if any applicable law requires the deduction or withholding of any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable upon the Note, including any Taxes imposed under FATCA, the Facility Agent shall be entitled to make deductions or withholding. “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(f) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Facility Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Facility Agent for such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 11.04(a) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Taxes excluded in Section 4.04(a) attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Facility Agent in connection with any Note, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Facility Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Facility Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time

owing to such Lender under any Note or otherwise payable by the Facility Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Facility Agent under this paragraph (f).

(g) Each party’s obligations under this Section 4.04 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Facility Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Credit Document.

4.05 Application of Proceeds. All monies collected by the Collateral Agent upon any sale or other disposition of the Collateral of each Credit Party, together with all other monies received by the Facility Agent or Collateral Agent under and in accordance with this Agreement and the other Credit Documents (except to the extent (i) such monies are for the account of the Facility Agent or Collateral Agent only or (ii) released in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement or any other Credit Document), shall be applied to the payment of the Secured Obligations in accordance as follows:

(i) first, to the payment of all amounts owing the Collateral Agent of the type described in clauses (iii) and (iv) of the definition of “Secured Obligations”;

(ii) second, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clause (i), an amount equal to the outstanding Credit Document Obligations shall be paid to the Lenders as provided in Section 4.05(d) hereof, with each Lender receiving an amount equal to such outstanding Credit Document Obligations or, if the proceeds are insufficient to pay in full all such Credit Document Obligations, its Pro Rata Share of the amount remaining to be distributed;

(iii) third, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clauses (i) and (ii), an amount equal to the outstanding Other Obligations shall be paid to the Other Creditors as provided in Section 4.05(d) hereof, with each Other Creditor receiving an amount equal to such outstanding Other Obligations or, if the proceeds are insufficient to pay in full all such Other Obligations, its Pro Rata Share of the amount remaining to be distributed; and

(iv) fourth, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clauses (i) through (iii), inclusive, and following the termination of this Agreement and the Credit Documents in accordance with their terms, to the relevant Credit Party or to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

(b) For purposes of this Agreement, “Pro Rata Share” shall mean, when calculating a Secured Creditor’s portion of any distribution or amount, that amount (expressed as a percentage) equal to a fraction the numerator of which is the then unpaid amount of such Secured Creditor’s Credit Document Obligations or Other Obligations, as the case may be, and the denominator of which is the then outstanding amount of all Credit Document Obligations or Other Obligations, as the case may be.

(c) When payments to Secured Creditors are based upon their respective Pro Rata Shares, the amounts received by such Secured Creditors hereunder shall be applied (for purposes of making determinations under this Section 4.05 only) (i) first, to their Credit

Document Obligations and (ii) second, to their Other Obligations. If any payment to any Secured Creditor of its Pro Rata Share of any distribution would result in overpayment to such Secured Creditor, such excess amount shall instead be distributed in respect of the unpaid Credit Document Obligations or Other Obligations, as the case may be, of the other Secured Creditors, with each Secured Creditor whose Credit Document Obligations or Other Obligations, as the case may be, have not been paid in full to receive an amount equal to such excess amount multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the unpaid Credit Document Obligations or Other Obligations, as the case may be, of such Secured Creditor and the denominator of which is the unpaid Credit Document Obligations or Other Obligations, as the case may be, of all Secured Creditors entitled to such distribution.

(d) All payments required to be made hereunder shall be made (x) if to the Lender Creditors, to the Facility Agent under this Agreement for the account of the Lender Creditors, and (y) if to the Other Creditors, to the trustee, paying agent or other similar representative (each a “Representative”) for the Other Creditors or, in the absence of such a Representative, directly to the Other Creditors.

(e) For purposes of applying payments received in accordance with this Section 4.05, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon (i) the Facility Agent under this Agreement and (ii) the Representative for the Other Creditors or, in the absence of such a Representative, upon the Other Creditors for a determination (which the Facility Agent, each Representative for any Other Creditors and the Secured Creditors agree (or shall agree) to provide upon request of the Collateral Agent) of the outstanding Credit Document Obligations and Other Obligations owed to the Lender Creditors or the Other Creditors, as the case may be. Unless it has actual knowledge (including by way of written notice from an Other Creditor) to the contrary, the Collateral Agent, shall be entitled to assume that no Interest Rate Protection Agreements are in existence.

(f) It is understood and agreed that each Credit Party shall remain jointly and severally liable to the extent of any deficiency between the amount of the proceeds of the Collateral pledged and Liens granted by it under and pursuant to the Security Documents and the aggregate amount of the Secured Obligations of such Credit Party.

Section 10. Agency and Security Trustee Provisions.

10.01 Appointment. (a) The Lenders in their capacity as Lenders and the Other Creditors (by their acceptance of the benefits hereof and of the other Credit Documents) hereby designate and appoint Citibank as Facility Agent (for purposes of this Section 10, the term “Facility Agent” shall include Citibank (and/or any of its affiliates) in its capacity as Collateral Agent pursuant to the Security Documents and in its capacity as mortgagee (if applicable) and security trustee pursuant to the Collateral Vessel Mortgages) to act as specified herein and in the other Credit Documents. Each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes, and each holder of any Note by the acceptance of such Note shall be deemed irrevocably to authorize, the Agents to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement, the other Credit Documents and any other instruments and agreements referred to herein or therein and to exercise such powers and to perform such duties hereunder and thereunder as are specifically delegated to or required of the Agents by the terms hereof and thereof and such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Agents may perform any of their duties hereunder by or through its respective officers, directors, agents, employees or affiliates and, may assign from time to time any or all of its rights, duties and obligations hereunder and under the Security Documents to any of its banking affiliates.

(b) The Lenders hereby irrevocably designate and appoint Citibank as security trustee solely for the purpose of holding the Collateral Vessel Mortgages on the Collateral Vessel in an Acceptable Flag Jurisdiction on behalf of the Lenders, from time to time, with regard to the (i) security, powers, rights, titles, benefits and interests (both present and future) constituted by and conferred on the Lenders or any of them or for the benefit thereof under or pursuant to the Collateral Vessel Mortgages (including, without limitation, the benefit of all covenants, undertakings, representations, warranties and obligations given, made or undertaken by any Lender in the Collateral Vessel Mortgages), (ii) all money, property and other assets paid or transferred to or vested in any Lender or any agent of any Lender or received or recovered by any Lender or any agent of any Lender pursuant to, or in connection with the Collateral Vessel

Mortgages, whether from the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor or any other person and (iii) all money, investments, property and other assets at any time representing or deriving from any of the foregoing, including all interest, income and other sums at any time received or receivable by any Lender or any agent of any Lender in respect of the same (or any part thereof). Citibank hereby accepts such appointment as security trustee.

10.02 Nature of Duties. (a) The Agents shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the Security Documents. None of the Agents nor any of their respective officers, directors, agents, employees or affiliates shall be liable for any action taken or omitted by it or them hereunder or under any other Credit Document or in connection herewith or therewith, unless caused by such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision (any such liability limited to the applicable Agent to whom such Person relates). The duties of each of the Agents shall be mechanical and administrative in nature; none of the Agents shall have by reason of this Agreement or any other Credit Document any fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender or the holder of any Note. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Credit Document, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon any Agents any obligations in respect of this Agreement or any other Credit Document except as expressly set forth herein or therein.

(b) It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Credit Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Facility Agent in such capacity is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

10.03 Lack of Reliance on the Agents. Independently and without reliance upon the Agents, each Lender and the holder of each Note, to the extent it deems appropriate, has made and shall continue to make (i) its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Parent and its Subsidiaries in connection with the making and the continuance of the Loans and the taking or not taking of any action in connection herewith and (ii) its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Parent and its Subsidiaries and, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, none of the Agents shall have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender or the holder of any Note with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the Loans or at any time or times thereafter. None of the Agents shall be responsible to any Lender or the holder of any Note for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties herein or in any document, certificate or other writing delivered in connection herewith or for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, perfection, collectability, priority or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Credit Document or the financial condition of the Parent and its Subsidiaries or be required to make any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, or the financial condition of the Parent and its Subsidiaries or the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default.

10.04 Certain Rights of the Agents. If any of the Agents shall request instructions from the Required Lenders with respect to any act or action (including failure to act) in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document, the Agents shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action unless and until the Agents shall have received instructions from the Required Lenders; and the Agents shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender or the holder of any Note shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Agents as a result of any of the Agents acting or refraining from acting hereunder or under any other Credit Document in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders.

10.05 Reliance. Each of the Agents shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, statement, certificate, telex, teletype, email or telecopier message, order or other document or telephone message signed, sent or made by any Person that the applicable Agent believed to be the proper Person, and, with respect to all legal matters pertaining to this Agreement and any other Credit Document and its duties hereunder and thereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by the Facility Agent.

10.06 Indemnification. To the extent any of the Agents is not reimbursed and indemnified by the Borrower, the Lenders severally agree to reimburse and indemnify the applicable Agents, in proportion to their respective “percentages” as used in determining the Required Lenders (without regard to the existence of any Defaulting Lenders), for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, costs, expenses or disbursements of whatsoever kind or nature which may be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by such Agents in performing their respective duties hereunder or under any other Credit Document, in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Credit Document (including, without limitation, as a result of a breach of any Sanctions Laws by a Credit Party); provided that no Lender shall be liable in respect to an Agent for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision). The indemnities contained in this Section 10.06 shall cover any cost, loss or liability incurred by each Indemnified Party in any jurisdiction arising or asserted under or in connection with any law relating to safety at sea, the ISM Code, the ISPS Code or any Environmental Law.

10.07 The Facility Agent in its Individual Capacity. With respect to its obligation to make Loans under this Agreement, each of the Agents shall have the rights and powers specified herein for a “Lender” and may exercise the same rights and powers as though it were not performing the duties specified herein; and the term “Lenders,” “Secured Creditors”, “Required Lenders”, “holders of Notes” or any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include each of the Agents in their respective individual capacity. Each of the Agents may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with any Credit Party or any Affiliate of any Credit Party as if it were not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration from the Borrower or any other Credit Party for services in connection with this Agreement and otherwise without having to account for the same to the Lenders.

10.08 Holders. The Facility Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until a written notice of the assignment, transfer or endorsement thereof, as the case may be, shall have been filed with the Facility Agent. Any request, authority or consent of any Person who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is the holder of any Note shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, transferee, assignee or endorsee, as the case may be, of such Note or of any Note or Notes issued in exchange therefor.

10.09 Resignation by the Facility Agent. (a) The Facility Agent may resign from the performance of all its functions and duties hereunder and/or under the other Credit Documents at any time by giving 15 Business Days’ prior written notice to the Borrower and the Lenders. Such resignation shall take effect upon the appointment of a successor Facility Agent pursuant to clauses (b) and (c) below or as otherwise provided below.

(b) Upon a notice of resignation delivered by the Facility Agent pursuant to Section 10.09(a), the Required Lenders shall appoint a successor Facility Agent hereunder or thereunder who shall be a commercial bank or trust company that is, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at such time, reasonably acceptable to the Borrower.

(c) If, following the delivery of a notice of resignation by the Facility Agent pursuant to Section 10.09(a), a successor Facility Agent shall not have been so appointed within such 15 Business Day period, the Facility Agent, with the consent of the Borrower (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and shall not be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at such time), shall then appoint a commercial bank or trust company with capital and surplus of not less than $500,000,000 as successor Facility Agent who shall serve as Facility Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Facility Agent as provided above.

(d) If no successor Facility Agent has been appointed pursuant to clause (b) or (c) above by the 25th Business Day after the date such notice of resignation was given by the Facility Agent, the Facility Agent’s resignation shall become effective and the Required Lenders shall thereafter perform all the duties of the Facility Agent hereunder and/or under any other Credit Document until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Facility Agent as provided above.

(e) The Facility Agent may resign from the performance of all its functions and duties hereunder and/or under the other Credit Documents at any time and may appoint one of its Affiliates as a successor by giving 5 Business Days’ prior written notice to the Borrower and the Lenders.

10.10 The Mandated Lead Arranger. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any provision of any other Credit Document, each of the Mandated Lead Arranger are named as such for recognition purposes only, and in their respective capacities as such shall have no powers, duties, responsibilities or liabilities with respect to this Agreement or the other Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby; it being understood and agreed that the Mandated Lead Arranger shall be entitled to all indemnification and

reimbursement rights in favor of any of the Agents as provided for under Sections 10.06 and 11.01. Without limitation of the foregoing, none of the Mandated Lead Arranger shall, solely by reason of this Agreement or any other Credit Documents, have any fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender or any other Person.

10.11 Collateral Matters. (a) Each Lender authorizes and directs the Collateral Agent to enter into the Security Documents for the benefit of the Lenders and the other Secured Creditors. Each Lender hereby agrees, and each holder of any Note by the acceptance thereof will be deemed to agree, that, except as otherwise set forth herein, any action taken by the Required Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or the Security Documents, and the exercise by the Required Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders. The Collateral Agent is hereby authorized on behalf of all of the Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender, from time to time prior to or during an Event of Default, to take any action with respect to any Collateral or Security Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the security interest in and Liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the Security Documents.

(b) The Lenders hereby authorize the Collateral Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Credit Document (i) upon payment and satisfaction of all of the Obligations (other than inchoate indemnification obligations) at any time arising under or in respect of this Agreement or the Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) that is sold or otherwise disposed of (to Persons other than the Borrower and its Subsidiaries) upon the sale or other disposition thereof in compliance with Section 8.02, (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders (or all of the Lenders hereunder, to the extent required by Section 11.13) or (iv) as otherwise may be expressly provided in the relevant Security Documents.

or available to the Collateral Agent in this Section 10.11 or in any of the Security Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, the Collateral Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, given the Collateral Agent’s own interest in the Collateral as one of the Lenders and that the Collateral Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to the Lenders, except for its gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision).

(e) (i) The Other Creditors shall not have any right whatsoever to do any of the following: (A) exercise any rights or remedies with respect to the Collateral or to direct any Agent to do the same, including, without limitation, the right to (1) enforce any Liens or sell or otherwise foreclose on any portion of the Collateral, (2) request any action, institute any proceedings, exercise any voting rights, give any instructions, make any election or make collections with respect to all or any portion of the Collateral or (3) release any Credit Party under any Credit Document or release any Collateral from the Liens of any Security Document or consent to or otherwise approve any such release; (B) demand, accept or obtain any Lien on any Collateral (except for Liens arising under, and subject to the terms of, the Credit Documents); (C) vote in any case concerning any Credit Party under the Bankruptcy Code or any other proceeding under any reorganization, arrangement, adjudication of debt, relief of debtors, dissolution, insolvency, liquidation or similar proceeding in respect of the Credit Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries (any such proceeding, for purposes of this clause (e)(i), a “Bankruptcy Proceeding”) with respect to, or take any other actions concerning the Collateral; (D) receive any proceeds from any sale, transfer or other disposition of any of the Collateral (except in accordance with this Agreement); (E) oppose any sale, transfer or other disposition of the Collateral; (F) object to any debtor-in-possession financing in any Bankruptcy Proceeding which is provided by one or more Lenders among others (including on a priming basis under Section 364(d) of the Bankruptcy Code); (G) object to the use of cash collateral in respect of the Collateral in any Bankruptcy Proceeding; or (H) seek, or object to the Lenders or any Agent seeking on an equal and ratable basis, any adequate protection or relief from the automatic stay with respect to the Collateral in any Bankruptcy Proceeding.

Such exercise and enforcement shall include, without limitation, the rights to collect, sell, dispose of or otherwise realize upon all or any part of the Collateral, to incur expenses in connection with such collection, sale, disposition or other realization and to exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured lender under the UCC.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, none of either Agent or any Lender or any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of Parent, any Subsidiary of Parent, any Other Creditor or any other Person or to take any other action or forbear from doing so whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof, except for any such action or failure to act that constitutes willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Person.

10.12 Delivery of Information. The Agents shall not be required to deliver to any Lender originals or copies of any documents, instruments, notices, communications or other information received by the Agents from any Credit Party, any Subsidiary, the Required Lenders, any Lender or any other Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document except (i) as specifically provided in this Agreement or any other Credit Document and (ii) as specifically requested from time to time in writing by any Lender with respect to a specific document, instrument, notice or other written communication received by and in the possession of any Agent at the time of receipt of such request and then only in accordance with such specific request.

10.13 The Initial Lender

(a) For so long as the only Lender under this Agreement is the Initial Lender, all references to the “Facility Agent”, the “Collateral Agent”, any “Agent”, the “Lenders” and a “security trustee” in this Agreement and the other Credit Documents shall be deemed to be references to the Initial Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Section 10.09 shall not permit the Initial Lender to resign if there is no Facility Agent.

(b) At such time as an additional Lender or Lenders have become a Lender hereunder pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, the Required Lenders shall appoint a bank or other financial institution reasonably acceptable to the Borrower to act as the Facility Agent and/or Collateral Agent (the “New Agent”). The Borrower and the Lenders agree to make any such amendments to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as may be necessary to incorporate the appointment of the New Agent, including (in the case of the Borrower) payment of any agency fees required by such New Agent and reasonably agreed by the Borrower at such time.

Section 11. Miscellaneous.

11.01 Payment of Expenses, etc. (a) The Borrower agrees that it shall: (i) pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of each of the Agents and their Affiliates (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of White & Case LLP, other counsel to the Facility Agent and the Mandated Lead Arranger and local counsel) in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and the documents and instruments referred to herein and therein and any amendment, waiver or consent relating hereto or thereto, of the Agents in connection with their respective syndication efforts with respect to this Agreement and of the Agents and each of the Lenders in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and the documents and instruments referred to herein and therein (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel (including in-house counsel) for each of the Agents and for each of the Lenders) and (ii) pay and hold each of the Lenders harmless from and against any and all present and future stamp, documentary, transfer, sales and use, value added, excise and other similar taxes with respect to the foregoing matters and save each of the Lenders harmless from and against any and all liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay or omission (other than to the extent attributable to such Lender) to pay such taxes.

(b) In addition, the Borrower shall indemnify the Agents, the Collateral Agent and each Lender, and each of their respective officers, directors, trustees, employees, representatives and agents (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) from and hold each of them harmless against any and all liabilities, obligations (including removal or remedial actions), losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, civil penalties, fines, settlements, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements (including reasonable attorneys’ and consultants’ fees and disbursements) incurred by, imposed on or assessed against any of them as a result of, or arising out of, or in any way related to, or by reason of: (i) any investigation, litigation or other proceeding (whether or not any of the Agents, the Collateral Agent or any Lender is a party thereto) related to the entering into and/or performance of this Agreement or any other Credit Document or the use of proceeds of any Loans hereunder or the consummation of any transactions contemplated herein, or in any other Credit Document or the exercise of any of their rights or remedies provided herein or in the other Credit Documents, (ii) the actual or alleged presence of Hazardous Materials on the Collateral Vessel or in the air, surface water or groundwater or on the surface or subsurface of any property at any time owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, (iii) the generation, storage, transportation, handling, disposal or Environmental Release of Hazardous Materials at any location, whether or not owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, (iv) the non-compliance of the Collateral Vessel or property with foreign, federal, state and local laws, regulations, and ordinances (including applicable permits thereunder) applicable to the Collateral Vessel or property, (v) any Environmental Claim asserted against the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or the Collateral Vessel or property at any time owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or (vi) the conduct of any Credit Party or any of its partners, directors, officers, employees, agents or advisors that violates any Sanctions Laws, including, in each case, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and other consultants incurred in connection with any such investigation, litigation or other proceeding (but excluding any losses, liabilities, claims, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, disbursements or expenses to the extent

incurred by reason of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party). To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay or hold harmless each of the Agents or any Lender set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it violates any law or public policy, the Borrower shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the indemnified liabilities which is permissible under applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no party hereto shall be responsible to any Person for any consequential, indirect, special or punitive damages which may be alleged by such Person arising out of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents.

(a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto; provided, however, that (i) no Credit Party may assign or transfer any of its rights, obligations or interest hereunder or under any other Credit Document without the prior written consent of the Lenders, (ii) although any Lender may transfer, assign or grant participations in its rights hereunder, such Lender shall remain a “Lender” for all purposes hereunder (and may not transfer or assign all or any portion of its Loans hereunder except as provided in Section 11.04(b)) and the transferee, assignee or participant, as the case may be, shall not constitute a “Lender” hereunder and (iii) no Lender shall transfer or grant any participation under which the participant shall have rights to approve any amendment to or waiver of this Agreement or any other Credit Document except to the extent such amendment or waiver would (x) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan or Note in which such participant is participating, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest thereon (except (I) in connection with a waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates and (II) that any amendment or modification to the financial definitions in this Agreement shall not constitute a reduction in the rate of interest for purposes of this clause (x)) or reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase the amount of the participant’s participation over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default shall not constitute a change in the terms of such participation, and that an increase in any Loan shall be permitted without the consent of any participant if the participant’s participation is not increased as a result thereof), (y) consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or (z) release all or substantially all of the Collateral under all of the Security Documents (except as expressly provided in the Credit Documents) securing the Loans hereunder in which such participant is participating. In the case of any such participation, the participant shall not have any rights under this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents (the participant’s rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by such Lender in favor of the participant relating thereto) and all amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation. In the case of any such participation, the participant shall not have any rights under this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents (the participant’s rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by such Lender in favor of the participant relating thereto) and all amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the Loan or other obligations under the Note (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any commitments, loans or its other obligations under any Note) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Facility

Agent (in its capacity as Facility Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Lender (or any Lender together with one or more other Lenders) may:

(x) assign all or a portion of its outstanding Loans to its (i) parent company and/or any Affiliate of such Lender or its parent company or (ii) in the case of any Lender that is a fund that invests in bank loans, any other fund that invests in bank loans and is managed or advised by the same investment advisor of such Lender or by an Affiliate of such investment advisor (a “Related Fund”) or (iii) to one or more Lenders or

(y) assign, with the consent of the Borrower and the Facility Agent (in each case which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and in the case of the Borrower, (i) shall not be required if any Default under Section 9.01 or 9.05 or any Event of Default is then in existence, (ii) shall be deemed to have been granted within 15 Business Days from the day it has been sought unless expressly refused within that period and (iii) at any time after the Relevant Date, shall not be required for an assignment to any Other Lender), all, or if less than all, a portion equal to at least $20,000,000 (or, if after the Relevant Date, $10,000,000) in the aggregate for the assigning Lender or assigning Lenders, of such outstanding principal amount of Loans hereunder to one or more Eligible Transferees (treating any Related Fund as a single Eligible Transferee), each of which assignees shall become a party to this Agreement as a Lender by execution of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement; provided that if all of such assigning Lender’s rights are less than $20,000,000 (or, if after the Relevant Date, $10,000,000) in principal amount and any Affiliates of such assigning Lender or any Related Fund hold any rights under this Agreement, then such assigning Lender, Affiliate and Related Fund must assign or transfer all of their rights and obligations (or if less than all, a portion equal to at least $20,000,000 (or, if after the Relevant Date, $10,000,000) in principal amount in the aggregate for such assigning Lender, Affiliate and Related Fund) to such Eligible Transferees;

provided that (i) at such time Schedule I hereto shall be deemed modified to reflect the outstanding Loans of such new Lender and of the existing Lenders, (ii) new Notes will be issued, at the Borrower’s expense, to such new Lender and to the assigning Lender upon the request of such new Lender or assigning Lender, such new Notes to be in conformity with the requirements of Section 2.04 (with appropriate modifications) to the extent needed to reflect the revised Loans, (iii) the consent of the Facility Agent shall be required in connection with any assignment pursuant to preceding clause (y) (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and (iv) the Facility Agent shall receive at the time of each such assignment, from the assigning or assignee Lender, the payment of a non-refundable assignment fee of $5,000. To the extent of any assignment pursuant to this Section 11.04(b), the assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder with respect to its assigned Loans (it being understood that the indemnification provisions under this Agreement (including, without limitation, Sections 2.08, 2.09, 4.04, 12.01 and 12.06) shall survive as to such assigning Lender). To the extent that an assignment of all or any portion of a Lender’s Loans and related outstanding Obligations pursuant to Section 2.11 or this Section 11.04(b) would, at the time of such assignment, result in increased costs under Section 2.08, 2.09 or 4.04 from those being charged by the respective assigning Lender prior to such assignment, then the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay such

100

increased costs (although the Borrower shall be obligated to pay any other increased costs of the type described above resulting from changes after the date of the respective assignment).

(c) Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or prohibit any Lender from pledging its Loans and Notes hereunder to a Federal Reserve Bank or any central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender in support of borrowings made by such Lender from such Federal Reserve Bank or central bank and, with the consent of the Facility Agent, any Lender which is a fund may pledge all or any portion of its Notes or Loans to a trustee for the benefit of investors and in support of its obligation to such investors; provided, however, no such pledge shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledge for such Lender as a party hereto.

11.05 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of the Facility Agent or any Lender or any holder of any Note in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document and no course of dealing between the Borrower or any other Credit Party and the Facility Agent or any Lender or the holder of any Note shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. The rights, powers and remedies herein or in any other Credit Document expressly provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, powers or remedies which the Facility Agent or any Lender or the holder of any Note would otherwise have. No notice to or demand on any Credit Party in any case shall entitle any Credit Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Facility Agent or any Lender or the holder of any Note to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

11.06 Payments Pro Rata. (a) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Facility Agent agrees that promptly after its receipt of each payment from or on behalf of the Borrower in respect of any Obligations hereunder, it shall distribute such payment to the Lenders (other than any Lender that has consented in writing to waive its pro rata share of any such payment) pro rata based upon their respective shares, if any, of the Obligations with respect to which such payment was received.

(b) Each of the Lenders agrees that, if it should receive any amount hereunder (whether by voluntary payment, by realization upon security, by the exercise of the right of setoff or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action, by the enforcement of any right under the Credit Documents, or otherwise), which is applicable to the payment of the principal of, or interest on, the Loans, of a sum which with respect to the related sum or sums received by other Lenders is in a greater proportion than the total of such Obligation then owed and due to such Lender bears to the total of such Obligation then owed and due to all of the Lenders immediately prior to such receipt, then such Lender receiving such excess payment shall purchase for cash without recourse or warranty from the other Lenders an interest in the Obligations of the respective Credit Party to such Lenders in such amount as shall result in a proportional participation by all the Lenders in such amount; provided that if all or any portion of such excess amount is thereafter recovered from such Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

101

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the provisions of the preceding Sections 11.06(a) and (b) shall be subject to the express provisions of this Agreement which require, or permit, differing payments to be made to Non-Defaulting Lenders as opposed to Defaulting Lenders.

11.07 Calculations; Computations. (a) The financial statements to be furnished to the Lenders pursuant hereto shall be made and prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States consistently applied throughout the periods involved (except as set forth in the notes thereto or as otherwise disclosed in writing by the Borrower to the Lenders). In addition, all computations determining compliance with the Financial Covenants or any other calculation required under the Credit Documents shall utilize accounting principles and policies in conformity with those in effect on the Effective Date (with the foregoing generally accepted accounting principles, subject to the preceding proviso, herein called “GAAP”). Unless otherwise noted, all references in this Agreement to GAAP shall mean generally accepted accounting principles as in effect in the United States.

(b) All computations of interest for Loans and Fees hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or Fees are payable.

11.08 Agreement Binding. The Parent and each other Credit Party agree that they shall be bound by the terms of this Agreement and the obligations and covenants expressed to be binding on each of them under this Agreement even if the terms, covenants or obligations contained hereunder are inconsistent with, or less favorable to the Parent or such Credit Party (as the case may be) than the Parent’s or such Credit Party’s rights and obligations under any other document that they are a party to or are otherwise bound by, notwithstanding that the Lender Creditors are aware of or have been provided with such other document pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise.

11.09 GOVERNING LAW; SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; VENUE; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. (a) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER SHALL, EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN CERTAIN OF THE COLLATERAL VESSEL MORTGAGES AND OTHER SECURITY DOCUMENTS, BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND BE GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT MAY, IN THE CASE OF ANY SECURED CREDITOR, AND SHALL, IN THE CASE OF ANY CREDIT PARTY, BE BROUGHT IN XXX XXXXXX XX XXX XXXXX XX XXX XXXX LOCATED IN NEW YORK COUNTY IN XXX XXXX XX XXX XXXX XX XX XXX XXXXXX XXXXXX FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND, BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, EACH OF THE PARENT AND THE BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY ACCEPTS FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY, THE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS.

NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF THE FACILITY AGENT UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, ANY LENDER OR THE HOLDER OF ANY NOTE TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR TO COMMENCE LEGAL PROCEEDINGS OR OTHERWISE PROCEED AGAINST ANY CREDIT PARTY IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. IF AT ANY TIME DURING WHICH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT REMAINS IN EFFECT, THE BORROWER DOES NOT MAINTAIN A REGULARLY FUNCTIONING OFFICE IN NEW YORK CITY, IT WILL DULY APPOINT, AND AT ALL TIMES MAINTAIN, AN AGENT IN NEW YORK CITY FOR THE SERVICE OF PROCESS OR SUMMONS, AND WILL PROVIDE TO THE FACILITY AGENT AND THE LENDERS WRITTEN NOTICE OF THE IDENTITY AND ADDRESS OF SUCH AGENT FOR SERVICE OF PROCESS OR SUMMONS; PROVIDED THAT ANY FAILURE ON THE PART OF THE BORROWER TO COMPLY WITH THE FOREGOING PROVISIONS OF THIS SENTENCE SHALL NOT IN ANY WAY PREJUDICE OR LIMIT THE SERVICE OF PROCESS OR SUMMONS IN ANY OTHER MANNER DESCRIBED ABOVE IN THIS SECTION 11.09 OR OTHERWISE PERMITTED BY LAW.

(b) EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY OF THE AFORESAID ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT BROUGHT IN THE COURTS REFERRED TO IN CLAUSE (a) ABOVE AND HEREBY FURTHER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM IN ANY SUCH COURT THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM.

(c) EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

11.13 Amendment or Waiver; etc. (a) Neither this Agreement nor any other Credit Document nor any terms hereof or thereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated unless such change, waiver, discharge or termination is in writing signed by the respective Credit Parties party thereto and the Required Lenders, provided that no such change, waiver, discharge or termination shall, without the consent of each Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) (with Obligations being directly affected in the case of following clause (i)) and, in the case of the following clause (vi), to the extent that any such Lender would be required to make a Loan in excess of its pro rata portion provided for in this Agreement or would receive a payment or prepayment of Loans that (in any case) is less than its pro rata portion provided for in this Agreement, in each case, as a result of any such amendment, modification or waiver referred to in the following clause (vi)):

(i) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan or Note, extend the timing for or reduce the principal amount of any Scheduled Repayment, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of fees or interest on any Loan or Note, or reduce the principal amount thereof (except to the extent repaid in cash),

(v) consent to the assignment or transfer by any Credit Party of any of its respective rights and obligations under this Agreement,

(vi) amend, modify or waive Section 2.05 or amend, modify or waive any other provision in this Agreement to the extent providing for payments or prepayments of Loans to be applied pro rata among the Lenders entitled to such payments or prepayments of Loans (it being understood that the provision of additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement, or the waiver of any mandatory prepayment of Loans by the Required Lenders shall not constitute an amendment, modification or waiver for purposes of this clause (vi)), or

(vii) release any Subsidiary Guarantor from the Subsidiaries Guaranty to the extent same owns a Collateral Vessel (other than as provided in the Subsidiaries Guaranty); provided, further, that no such change, waiver, discharge or termination shall (A) without the consent of each Agent, amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 10 as same applies to such Agent or any other provision as same relates to the rights or obligations of such Agent, or

104

(B) without the consent of the Collateral Agent, amend, modify or waive any provision relating to the rights or obligations of the Collateral Agent.

(b) If, in connection with any proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination to any of the provisions of this Agreement as contemplated by clauses (i) through (vi), inclusive, of the first proviso to Section 11.13(a), the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders whose consent is required (any such Lender, a “Non-Consenting Lender”) is not obtained, then the Borrower shall have the right, so long as all Non-Consenting Lenders whose individual consent is required are treated as described in either clauses (i) or (ii) below, to either (i) replace each such Non-Consenting Lender (or, at the option of the Borrower if the respective Non-Consenting Lender’s consent is required with respect to less than all Loans of such Non-Consenting Lender, to replace only the respective Loans of the respective Non-Consenting Lender which gave rise to the need to obtain such Non-Consenting Lender’s individual consent) with one or more Replacement Lenders pursuant to Section 2.11 so long as at the time of such replacement, each such Replacement Lender consents to the proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination or (ii) repay the outstanding Loans of such Non-Consenting Lender which gave rise to the need to obtain such Non-Consenting Lender’s consent, in accordance with Sections 3.02(b) and/or 4.01(a), provided that, unless the Loans that are repaid pursuant to preceding clause (ii) are immediately replaced in full at such time through the addition of new Lenders or the increase of the outstanding Loans of existing Lenders (who in each case must specifically consent thereto), then in the case of any action pursuant to preceding clause (ii) the Required Lenders (determined before giving effect to the proposed action) shall specifically consent thereto, provided, further, that in any event the Borrower shall not have the right to replace a Lender or repay such Lender’s Loan solely as a result of the exercise of such Lender’s rights (and the withholding of any required consent by such Lender) pursuant to the second proviso to Section 11.13(a).

11.14 Survival. All indemnities set forth herein including, without limitation, in Sections 2.08, 2.09, 4.04, 11.01 and 11.06 shall survive the execution, delivery and termination of this Agreement and the Notes and the making and repayment of the Loans.

11.15 Domicile of Loans. Each Lender may transfer and carry its pro rata portion of the Loans at, to or for the account of any office, Subsidiary or Affiliate of such Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, to the extent that a transfer of Loans pursuant to this Section 11.15 would, at the time of such transfer, result in increased costs under Section 2.08, 2.09 or 4.04 from those being charged by the respective Lender prior to such transfer, then the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay such increased costs (although the Borrower shall be obligated to pay any other increased costs of the type described above resulting from changes after the date of the respective transfer).

11.16 Confidentiality. (a) Subject to the provisions of clauses (b) and (c) of this Section 11.16, each Lender agrees that it will not disclose without the prior consent of the Borrower (other than to its employees, auditors, advisors or counsel, to another Lender if the Lender or such Lender’s holding or parent company or board of trustees in its sole discretion determines that any such party should have access to such information, to any branch, Affiliate or Subsidiary of each Lender of to the parent company, head office or regional office of such Lender in connection with the transaction contemplated herein provided all such Persons shall be

105

subject to the provisions of this Section 11.16 to the same extent as such Lender) any information with respect to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries which is now or in the future furnished pursuant to this Agreement or any other Credit Document, provided that any Lender may disclose any such information (i) as has become generally available to the public other than by virtue of a breach of this Section 11.16(a) by the respective Lender, (ii) as may be required in any report, statement or testimony submitted to any municipal, state or Federal regulatory body having or claiming to have jurisdiction over such Lender or to the Federal Reserve Board or the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or similar organizations (whether in the United States or elsewhere) or their successors, (iii) as may be required in respect to any summons or subpoena or in connection with any litigation, (iv) in order to comply with any law, order, regulation or ruling applicable to such Lender, (v) to the Facility Agent or the Collateral Agent, (vi) to any prospective or actual transferee or participant in connection with any contemplated transfer or participation of any of the Notes or any interest therein by such Lender (it being understood that for the purpose of this clause (vi), other than during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Lender shall use commercially reasonable efforts to apprise the Borrower of the potential transferee), provided that such prospective transferee expressly agrees to execute and does execute (including by way of customary “click through” arrangements) a confidentiality agreement and be bound by the confidentiality provisions contained in this Section 11.16.

(b) The Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that each Lender may share with any of its affiliates any information related to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, any nonpublic customer information regarding the creditworthiness of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries), provided such Persons shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 11.16 to the same extent as such Lender.

11.17 Register. The Borrower hereby designates the Facility Agent to serve as the Borrower’s agent, solely for purposes of this Section 11.17, to maintain a register (the “Register”) on which it will record the Loans made by each of the Lenders and each repayment and prepayment in respect of the principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans of each Lender. Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations in respect of such Loans. With respect to any Lender, the transfer of the rights to the principal of, and interest on, any Loan shall not be effective until such transfer is recorded on the Register maintained by the Facility Agent with respect to ownership of such Loans and prior to such recordation all amounts owing to the transferor with respect to such Loans shall remain owing to the transferor. The registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of any Loans shall be recorded by the Facility Agent on the Register only upon the acceptance by the Facility Agent of a properly executed and delivered Assignment and Assumption Agreement pursuant to Section 11.04(b). Coincident with the delivery of such an Assignment and Assumption Agreement to the Facility Agent for acceptance and registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of a Loan, or as soon thereafter as practicable, the assigning or transferor Lender shall surrender the Note evidencing such Loan, and thereupon one or more new Notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the assigning or transferor Lender and/or the new Lender. The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Facility Agent from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities of whatsoever nature which may be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by the Facility Agent in performing its duties under this Section 11.17, except to the extent caused by the Facility Agent’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

106

11.18 Judgment Currency. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due from the Borrower hereunder or under any of the Notes in the currency expressed to be payable herein or under the Notes (the “specified currency”) into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Facility Agent could purchase the specified currency with such other currency at the Facility Agent’s New York office on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligations of the Borrower in respect of any sum due to any Lender or the Facility Agent hereunder or under any Note shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than the specified currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender or the Facility Agent (as the case may be) of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency such Lender or the Facility Agent (as the case may be) may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the specified currency with such other currency; if the amount of the specified currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Lender or the Facility Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency, the Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender or the Facility Agent, as the case may be, against such loss, and if the amount of the specified currency so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to any Lender or the Facility Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency, such Lender or the Facility Agent, as the case may be, agrees to remit such excess to the Borrower.

11.19 Language. All correspondence, including, without limitation, all notices, reports and/or certificates, delivered by any Credit Party to the Facility Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender shall, unless otherwise agreed by the respective recipients thereof, be submitted in the English language or, to the extent the original of such document is not in the English language, such document shall be delivered with a certified English translation thereof.

11.20 Waiver of Immunity. The Borrower, in respect of itself, each other Credit Party, its and their process agents, and its and their properties and revenues, hereby irrevocably agrees that, to the extent that the Borrower, any other Credit Party or any of its or their properties has or may hereafter acquire any right of immunity from any legal proceedings, whether in the any applicable Acceptable Flag Jurisdiction or elsewhere, to enforce or collect upon the Obligations of the Borrower or any other Credit Party related to or arising from the transactions contemplated by any of the Credit Documents, including, without limitation, immunity from service of process, immunity from jurisdiction or judgment of any court or tribunal, immunity from execution of a judgment, and immunity of any of its property from attachment prior to any entry of judgment, or from attachment in aid of execution upon a judgment, the Borrower, for itself and on behalf of the other Credit Parties, hereby expressly waives, to the fullest extent permissible under applicable law, any such immunity, and agrees not to assert any such right or claim in any such proceeding, whether in an Acceptable Flag Jurisdiction or elsewhere.

11.21 USA PATRIOT Act Notice. Each Lender hereby notifies each Credit Party that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub.: 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “PATRIOT Act”), it is required to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each Credit Party, which information includes the name of each Credit Party and other “you’re your customer” information that will allow such Lender to identify each

107

Credit Party in accordance with the PATRIOT Act and anti-money laundering rules and regulations and each Credit Party agrees to provide such information from time to time to any Lender.

11.22 Severability. If any provisions of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable: (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions; provided that the Lenders shall charge no fee in connection with any such amendment. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalid or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 12. Parent Guaranty.

12.01 Guaranty. In order to induce the Facility Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit hereunder, and induce the other Guaranteed Creditors to enter into Interest Rate Protection Agreements and Other Hedging Agreements and in recognition of the direct benefits to be received by the Parent from the continuation and conversion of the Loans and the entering into of such Interest Rate Protection Agreements and Other Hedging Agreements, the Parent hereby agrees with the Guaranteed Creditors as follows: The Parent hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees as primary obligor and not merely as surety, the full and prompt payment when due, whether upon maturity, acceleration or otherwise, of any and all of the Obligations of the Borrower to the Guaranteed Creditors. If any or all of the Obligations of the Borrower to the Guaranteed Creditors becomes due and payable hereunder, the Parent unconditionally and irrevocably, promises to pay such indebtedness to the Facility Agent and/or the other Guaranteed Creditors, or order, on demand, together with any and all reasonable documented out-of-pocket expenses which may be incurred by the Facility Agent and the other Guaranteed Creditors in collecting any of the Obligations. If a claim is ever made upon any Guaranteed Creditor for repayment or recovery of any amount or amounts received in payment or on account of any of the Obligations and any of the aforesaid payees repays all or part of said amount by reason of (i) any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body having jurisdiction over such payee or any of its property or (ii) any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected by such payee with any such claimant (including the Borrower), then and in such event, the Parent agrees that any such judgment, decree, order, settlement or compromise shall be binding upon the Parent, notwithstanding any revocation of this Parent Guaranty or other instrument evidencing any liability of the Borrower, and the Parent shall both be and remain liable to the aforesaid payees hereunder for the amount so repaid or recovered to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been received by any such payee.

12.02 Bankruptcy. Additionally, the Parent unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the payment of any and all of the Obligations (including, without limitation, all interest accruing subsequent to the commencement of any case, proceeding or other action relating to any Credit Party under any Debtor Relief Laws, and all interest which, but for any such case, proceeding or other action would otherwise accrue) to the Guaranteed Creditors whether or not due or payable

108

by the Borrower or any other Credit Party upon the occurrence of any of the events specified in Section 9.05, and irrevocably, unconditionally and jointly and severally promises to pay such indebtedness to the Guaranteed Creditors, or order, on demand, in lawful money of the United States.

12.03 Nature of Liability. The liability of the Parent hereunder is primary, absolute and unconditional, exclusive and independent of any security for or other guaranty of the Obligations, whether executed by the Parent, any other guarantor or by any other party, and the liability of the Parent hereunder shall not be affected or impaired by (a) any direction as to application of payment by the Borrower or by any other party, or (b) any other continuing or other guaranty, undertaking or maximum liability of a guarantor or of any other party as to the Obligations, or (c) any payment on or in reduction of any such other guaranty or undertaking, or (d) any dissolution, termination or increase, decrease or change in personnel by the Borrower, or (e) any payment made to any Guaranteed Creditor on the Obligations which any such Guaranteed Creditor repays to the Borrower or any other Credit Party pursuant to court order in any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other debtor relief proceeding, and the Borrower waives any right to the deferral or modification of its obligations hereunder by reason of any such proceeding, (f) any action or inaction by the Guaranteed Creditors as contemplated in Section 12.05, or (g) any invalidity, irregularity or enforceability of all or any part of the Obligations or of any security therefor.

12.04 Independent Obligation. The obligations of the Parent hereunder are several and are independent of the obligations of any other guarantor, any other party or the Borrower, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against the Parent whether or not action is brought against any other guarantor, any other party or the Borrower and whether or not any other guarantor, any other party or the Borrower be joined in any such action or actions. The Parent waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting its liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof. Any payment by the Borrower or other circumstance which operates to toll any statute of limitations as to the Borrower shall operate to toll the statute of limitations as to the Parent.

12.05 Authorization. The Parent authorizes the Guaranteed Creditors without notice or demand (except as shall be required by applicable statute or this Agreement and cannot be waived), and without affecting or impairing its liability hereunder, from time to time to:

(a) in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, change the manner, place or terms of payment of, and/or change or extend the time of payment of, renew, increase, accelerate or alter, any of the Obligations (including any increase or decrease in the principal amount thereof or the rate of interest or fees thereon), any security therefor, or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof, and this Parent Guaranty shall apply to the Obligations as so changed, extended, renewed or altered;

(b) take and hold security for the payment of the Obligations and sell, exchange, release, impair, surrender, realize upon or otherwise deal with in any manner and in any order any property by whomsoever at any time pledged or mortgaged to secure, or howsoever securing, the Obligations or any liabilities (including any of those

109

hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and/or any offset thereagainst;

(c) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Borrower, any other Credit Party or others or otherwise act or refrain from acting;

(d) release or substitute any one or more endorsers, guarantors, the Borrower, other Credit Parties or other obligors;

(e) settle or compromise any of the Obligations, any security therefor or any liability (including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and may subordinate the payment of all or any part thereof to the payment of any liability (whether due or not) of the Borrower to its creditors other than the Guaranteed Creditors;

(f) apply any sums by whomsoever paid or howsoever realized to any liability or liabilities of the Borrower to the Guaranteed Creditors regardless of what liability or liabilities of the Borrower remain unpaid;

(g) consent to or waive any breach of, or any act, omission or default under, this Agreement, any other Credit Document, any Interest Rate Protection Agreement or any Other Hedging Agreement or any of the instruments or agreements referred to herein or therein, or, pursuant to the terms of the Credit Documents, otherwise amend, modify or supplement this Agreement, any other Credit Document, any Interest Rate Protection Agreement or any Other Hedging Agreement or any of such other instruments or agreements; and/or

(h) take any other action which would, under otherwise applicable principles of common law, give rise to a legal or equitable discharge of the Parent from its liabilities under this Parent Guaranty.

12.06 Reliance. It is not necessary for any Guaranteed Creditor to inquire into the capacity or powers of the Parent or any of their respective Subsidiaries or the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on their behalf, and any Obligations made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed hereunder.

12.07 Subordination. Any indebtedness of the Borrower now or hereafter owing to the Parent is hereby subordinated to the Obligations of the Borrower owing to the Guaranteed Creditors; and if the Facility Agent so requests at a time when an Event of Default exists, all such indebtedness of the Borrower to the Parent shall be collected, enforced and received by the Parent for the benefit of the Guaranteed Creditors and be paid over to the Facility Agent on behalf of the Guaranteed Creditors on account of the Obligations to the Guaranteed Creditors, but without affecting or impairing in any manner the liability of the Parent under the other provisions of this Parent Guaranty. Prior to the transfer by the Parent of any note or negotiable instrument evidencing any such indebtedness of the Borrower to the Parent, the Parent shall xxxx such note or negotiable instrument with a legend that the same is subject to this subordination. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Parent hereby agrees with the Guaranteed Creditors that they will not exercise any right of subrogation which they may at

110

any time otherwise have as a result of this Parent Guaranty (whether contractual, under Section 509 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise) until all Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full in cash. If and to the extent required in order for the Obligations of the Parent to be enforceable under applicable federal, state and other laws relating to the insolvency of debtors, the maximum liability of the Parent hereunder shall be limited to the greatest amount which can lawfully be guaranteed by the Parent, under such laws, after giving effect to any rights of contribution, reimbursement and subrogation arising under this Section 12.07.

12.08 Waiver. (a) The Parent waives any right (except as shall be required by applicable law and cannot be waived) to require any Guaranteed Creditor to (i) proceed against the Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from the Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party or (iii) pursue any other remedy in any Guaranteed Creditor’s power whatsoever. The Parent hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now or hereafter have in any way relating to any and all of the following: (a) based on or arising out of any defense of the Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party, other than payment in full in cash of the Obligations, based on or arising out of the disability of the Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party, or the validity, legality or unenforceability of the Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of the Borrower other than payment in full in cash of the Obligations; (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from any Credit Document; (c) any taking, exchange, release or nonperfection of any Collateral, or any taking, release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from the Parent Guaranty or any other guaranty, for all or any of the Obligations; (d) any law or regulation of any foreign jurisdiction or any other event affecting any term of an Obligation; and (e) any other circumstance (including, without limitation, any statute of limitations or any existence of or reliance on any representation by the Facility Agent or any other Secured Creditor) that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, such Guarantor, any other Credit Party or any other guarantor or surety other than payment in full in cash of the Obligations. The Guaranteed Creditors may, at their election, foreclose on any security held by the Facility Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Guaranteed Creditor by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, whether or not every aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable (to the extent such sale is permitted by applicable law), or exercise any other right or remedy the Guaranteed Creditors may have against the Borrower, or any other party, or any security, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of the Parent hereunder except to the extent the Obligations have been paid in cash. The Parent waives any defense arising out of any such election by the Guaranteed Creditors, even though such election operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of the Parent against the Borrower or any other party or any security.

(b) The Parent waives all presentments, demands for performance, protests and notices, including, without limitation, notices of nonperformance, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of this Parent Guaranty, and notices of the existence, creation or incurring of new or additional Obligations. The Parent assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the Borrower’s financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks which the Parent assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that neither the

111

Facility Agent nor any of the other Guaranteed Creditors shall have any duty to advise the Parent of information known to them regarding such circumstances or risks.

12.09 Judgment Shortfall. (a) The obligations of the Parent under the Parent Guaranty to make payments in the respective currency or currencies in which the respective Obligations are required to be paid (such currency being herein called the “Obligation Currency”) shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed in or converted into any currency other than the Obligation Currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery results in the effective receipt by the Facility Agent, the Collateral Agent or the respective other Secured Creditor of the full amount of the Obligation Currency expressed to be payable to the Facility Agent, the Collateral Agent or such other Secured Creditor under this Parent Guaranty or the other Credit Documents or any Interest Rate Protection Agreements or any Other Hedging Agreements, as applicable. If for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against the Parent in any court or in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into or from any currency other than the Obligation Currency (such other currency being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due in the Obligation Currency, the conversion shall be made, at the rate of exchange (quoted by the Facility Agent, determined, in each case, as of the date immediately preceding the day on which the judgment is given (such Business Day being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency Conversion Date”).

(b) If there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Currency Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount due, the Parent, covenants and agrees to pay, or cause to be paid, such additional amounts, if any (but in any event not a lesser amount), as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the Obligation Currency which could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial award at the rate or exchange prevailing on the Judgment Currency Conversion Date.

SCHEDULE V-A

REQUIRED INSURANCE

Insurance to be maintained on the Collateral Vessel:

(a) The Borrower and the Collateral Vessel Owner shall keep the Collateral Vessel insured with insurers and protection and indemnity clubs or associations of internationally recognized reputation, and placed in such markets, on such terms and conditions, and through brokers, reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent (it being understood that AON and Xxxxx are satisfactory) and under forms of policies approved by the Collateral Agent against the risks indicated below and such other risks as the Collateral Agent may reasonably specify from time to time; however, in no case shall the Collateral Agent specify insurance in excess of the customary insurances purchased by first-class owners of comparable vessels:

(i) Marine and war risk, including terrorism, confiscation, London Blocking and Trapping Addendum and Missing Collateral Vessel Clause, hull and machinery insurance, hull interest insurance and freight interest insurance (in each case, on an agreed value basis), together in an amount in U.S. dollars at all times equal to or greater than the greater of (x) the then Fair Market Value of the Collateral Vessel and (y) an amount which is equal to one-hundred twenty per cent (120%) of the aggregate principal amount of Loans outstanding under the Credit Facility at such time. The insured value for hull and machinery required under this clause (i) for such Collateral Vessel shall at all times be in an amount equal to the greater of (x) eighty per cent (80%) of the Fair Market Value of such Collateral Vessel and (y) an amount which is equal to the aggregate principal amount of all Loans outstanding under the Credit Facility at such time, and the remaining machine and war risk insurance required by this clause (i) may be taken out as hull and freight interest insurance.

(ii) Marine and war risk protection and indemnity insurance or equivalent insurance (including coverage against liability for crew, fines and penalties arising out of the operation of such Collateral Vessel, insurance against liability arising out of pollution, spillage or leakage, and workmen’s compensation or longshoremen’s and harbor workers’ insurance as shall be required by applicable law) in such amounts approved by the Collateral Agent; provided, however, that insurance against liability under law or international convention arising out of pollution, spillage or leakage shall be in an amount not less than the greater of:

(x) $1,000,000,000;

(y) the maximum amount reasonably available from the International Group of Protection and Indemnity Associations (the “International Group”) or alternatively such sources of pollution, spillage or leakage coverage as are commercially available in any absence of such coverage by the International Group as shall be carried by prudent shipowners engaged in similar trades; and

(z) the amounts required by the laws or regulations of the United States of America or any applicable jurisdiction in which such Collateral Vessel may be trading from time to time.

(iii) Mortgagee’s interest insurance on such conditions as the Collateral Agent may reasonably require and mortgagee’s interest insurance for pollution risks as from time to time agreed, satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and for an amount in U.S.

dollars approved by the Collateral Agent but not being less than 120% of the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Loans outstanding pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Borrower and such Collateral Vessel Owner having no interest or entitlement in respect of such policies; all such mortgagee’s interest insurance cover shall be obtained directly by the Collateral Agent and the Collateral Agent undertakes to use its best endeavors to match the premium level that the Borrower or such Collateral Vessel Owner would have paid if they had arranged such cover on such conditions (as demonstrated by the reasonable satisfaction of the Collateral Agent), provided that in no event shall the Borrower or such Collateral Vessel Owner be required to reimburse the Collateral Agent for any such costs in excess of the premium level then available to the Collateral Agent in the market.

(iv) While such Collateral Vessel is idle or laid up, at the option of the Borrower and in lieu of the above-mentioned marine and war risk hull insurance, port risk insurance insuring such Collateral Vessel against the usual risks encountered by like vessels under similar circumstances.

(b) The marine and commercial war-risk insurance required in this Schedule V-A for such Collateral Vessel shall have deductibles and franchises in amounts reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent.

All insurance maintained hereunder shall be primary insurance without right of contribution against any other insurance maintained by the Collateral Agent. The policy of marine and war risk hull and machinery insurance with respect to the Collateral Vessel shall, if so requested by the Collateral Agent, provide that the Collateral Agent shall be a named insured in its capacity as mortgagee and as loss payee. The entry in a marine and war risk protection indemnity club with respect to the Collateral Vessel shall note the interest of the Collateral Agent. The Facility Agent, the Collateral Agent and each of their respective successors and assigns shall not be responsible for any premiums, club calls, assessments or any other obligations or for the representations and warranties made therein by the Borrower, any of the Borrower’s Subsidiaries, the Collateral Vessel Owner or any other Person. In addition, the Borrower shall reimburse the Facility Agent for the commercially reasonable cost of mortgagee’s interest insurance and Mortgagee’s interest additional perils (pollution) insurance which the Facility Agent will take out on the Collateral Vessel upon such terms and in such amounts as the Facility Agent shall deem appropriate.

(c) The Collateral Agent shall from time to time obtain a detailed report signed by a firm of marine insurance brokers acceptable to the Collateral Agent with respect to P & I entry, the hull and machinery and war risk insurance carried and maintained on the Collateral Vessel, together with their opinion as to the adequacy thereof and its compliance with the provisions of this Schedule V-A. At the Borrower’s expense, the Borrower will instruct its insurance broker (which, for the avoidance of doubt shall be a different insurance broker from the firm of marine insurance brokers referred to in the immediately preceding sentence) and the P & I club or association providing P & I insurance referred to in part (a)(ii) of this Schedule V-A, to agree to advise the Collateral Agent by electronic mail of any expiration, termination, alteration or cancellation of any policy, any default in the payment of any premium and of any other act or omission on the part of the Borrower or Collateral Vessel Owner of which the Borrower or such Collateral Vessel Owner has knowledge and which might invalidate or render unenforceable, in whole or in part, any insurance on the Collateral Vessel, and to provide an opportunity of paying

any such unpaid premium or call, such right being exercisable by the Collateral Agent on the Collateral Vessel on an individual and not on a fleet basis. In addition, the Borrower and the Collateral Vessel Owner shall promptly provide the Collateral Agent with any information which the Collateral Agent reasonably requests for the purpose of obtaining or preparing any report from the Collateral Agent’s independent marine insurance consultant as to the adequacy of the insurances effected or proposed to be effected in accordance with this Schedule V-A as of the date hereof or in connection with any renewal thereof, and the Borrower and the Collateral Vessel Owner shall upon demand indemnify the Collateral Agent in respect of all reasonable fees and other expenses incurred by or for the account of the Collateral Agent in connection with any such report, provided that the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to such indemnity only for one such report during a period of twelve months.

The underwriters or brokers shall furnish the Collateral Agent with a letter or letters of undertaking to the effect that:

(i) they will hold the instruments of insurance, and the benefit of the insurances thereunder, to the order of the Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms of the loss payable clause referred to in the General Assignment Agreement;

(ii) they will have endorsed on each and every policy as and when the same is issued the loss payable clause, to be in the excess of $2,000,000, and the notice of assignment referred to in the relevant Assignment of Insurances for such Collateral Vessel; and

(iii) they will not set off against any sum recoverable in respect of a claim against the Collateral Vessel under the said underwriters or brokers or any other Person in respect of any other vessel nor cancel the said insurances by reason of non-payment of such premiums or other amounts.

All policies of insurance required hereby shall provide for not less than 14 days prior written notice (seven days in respect of war risks) to be received by the Collateral Agent of the termination or cancellation of the insurance evidenced thereby. All policies of insurance maintained pursuant to this Schedule V-A for risks covered by insurance other than that provided by a P & I Club shall contain provisions waiving underwriters’ rights of subrogation thereunder against any assured named in such policy and any assignee of said assured, only to the extent such underwriters agree to so waive rights of subrogation (provided that it is understood and agreed that the Borrower and the Collateral Vessel Owner shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such waivers). The Borrower and the Collateral Vessel Owner shall assign to the Collateral Agent its full rights under any policies of insurance in respect of the Collateral Vessel in accordance with the terms contained herein (and, for the avoidance of doubt, such assignments shall include any additional value of any insurance that exceeds the values expressly required herein in respect of such Collateral Vessel). Each of the Borrower and the Collateral Vessel Owner agrees that it shall deliver unless the insurances by their terms provide that they cannot cease (by reason of nonrenewal or otherwise) without the Collateral Agent being informed and having the right to continue the insurance by paying any premiums not paid by the Borrower or such Collateral Vessel Owner, receipts showing payment of premiums for Required Insurance and also of demands from the Collateral Vessel’s P & I underwriters to the Collateral Agent at least two (2) days before the risk in question commences.

(d) Unless the Collateral Agent shall otherwise agree, all amounts of whatsoever nature payable under any insurance must be payable to the Collateral Agent for distribution first to itself and thereafter to the Borrower, relevant Collateral Vessel Owner or others as their interests may appear, provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, until otherwise required by the Collateral Agent by notice to the underwriters upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default hereunder, (i) amounts payable under any insurance on a Collateral Vessel with respect to protection and indemnity risks may be paid directly to (x) the Borrower or relevant Collateral Vessel Owner to reimburse it for any loss, damage or expense incurred by it and covered by such insurance or (y) the Person to whom any liability covered by such insurance has been incurred, and (ii) amounts payable under any insurance with respect to such Collateral Vessel involving any damage to such Collateral Vessel not constituting an Event of Loss, may be paid by underwriters directly for the repair, salvage or other charges involved or, if the Borrower or such Collateral Vessel Owner shall have first fully repaired the damage or paid all of the salvage or other charges, may be paid to the Borrower or such Collateral Vessel Owner as reimbursement therefor; provided, however, that if such amounts (including any franchise or deductible) are in excess of $1,000,000, the underwriters shall not make such payment without first obtaining the written consent thereto of the Collateral Agent and the loss payable clauses pertaining to such insurances shall be endorsed to that effect.

(e) All amounts paid to the Collateral Agent in respect of any insurance on the Collateral Vessel shall be disposed of as follows (after deduction of the expenses of the Collateral Agent in collecting such amounts):

(i) any amount which might have been paid at the time, in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (d) above, directly to the Borrower, Collateral Vessel Owner or others shall be paid by the Collateral Agent to, or as directed by, the Borrower;

(ii) all amounts paid to the Collateral Agent in respect of an Event of Loss of such Collateral Vessel shall be applied by the Collateral Agent to the payment of the Financial Indebtedness hereby secured pursuant to Section 4.02(b) of the Credit Agreement; and

(iii) all other amounts paid to the Collateral Agent in respect of any insurance on such Collateral Vessel may, in the Collateral Agent’s sole discretion, be held and applied to the prepayment of the Obligations or to making of needed repairs or other work on such Collateral Vessel, or to the payment of other claims incurred by the Borrower or Collateral Vessel Owner relating to such Collateral Vessel, or may be paid to the Borrower, Collateral Vessel Owner or whosoever may be entitled thereto.

(f) In the event that any claim or lien is asserted against a Collateral Vessel for loss, damage or expense which is covered by insurance required hereunder and it is necessary for the Borrower or Collateral Vessel Owner to obtain a bond or supply other security to prevent arrest of such Collateral Vessel or to release such Collateral Vessel from arrest on account of such claim or lien, the Collateral Agent, on request of the Borrower, may, in the sole discretion of the Collateral Agent, assign to any Person, firm or corporation executing a surety or guarantee bond or other agreement to save or release such Collateral Vessel from such arrest, all right, title and interest of the Collateral Agent in and to said insurance covering said loss, damage or expense, as collateral security to indemnify against liability under said bond or other agreement.

(g) The Borrower shall deliver to the Collateral Agent certified copies and, whenever so reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent, if available to the Borrower, the originals of all certificates of entry, cover notes, binders, evidences of insurance and policies and all endorsements and riders amendatory thereof in respect of insurance maintained pursuant to Section 7.03 of the Credit Agreement and this Schedule V-A for the purpose of inspection or safekeeping, or, alternatively, satisfactory letters of undertaking from the broker holding the same. The Collateral Agent shall be under no duty or obligation to verify the adequacy or existence of any such insurance or any such policies, endorsement or riders.

(h) Neither the Borrower nor the Collateral Vessel Owner will execute or permit or willingly allow to be done any act by which any insurance may be suspended, impaired or cancelled, and that it will not permit or allow the Collateral Vessel to undertake any voyage or run any risk or transport any cargo which may not be permitted by the policies in force, without having previously notified the Collateral Agent in writing and insured such Collateral Vessel by additional coverage to extend to such voyages, risks, passengers or cargoes.

(i) In case any underwriter proposes to pay less on any claim than the amount thereof, the Borrower shall forthwith inform the Collateral Agent, and if a Default, Event of Default or an Event of Loss has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent shall have the exclusive right to negotiate and agree to any compromise.

(j) The Borrower and the Collateral Vessel Owner will comply with and satisfy all of the provisions of any applicable law, convention, regulation, proclamation or order concerning financial responsibility for liabilities imposed on the Borrower, Collateral Vessel Owner or the Collateral Vessel with respect to pollution by any state or nation or political subdivision thereof and will maintain all certificates or other evidence of financial responsibility as may be required by any such law, convention, regulation, proclamation or order with respect to the trade in which such Collateral Vessel is from time to time engaged and the cargo carried by it.

FORM OF SUBSIDIARIES GUARANTY

SUBSIDIARIES GUARANTY, dated as of , 2015 (as amended, modified, restated and/or supplemented from time to time, this “Subsidiaries Guaranty”), made by each of the undersigned guarantors (each a “Subsidiary Guarantor” and, together with any other entity that becomes a guarantor hereunder pursuant to Section 25 hereof, the “Subsidiary Guarantors”). Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used herein and defined in the Credit Agreement (as defined below) shall be used herein as therein defined.

W I T N E S S E T H :

WHEREAS, Gener8 Maritime, Inc. (the “Parent”), Gener8 Maritime Subsidiary VII Inc. (the “Borrower”), the lenders from time to time party thereto (the “Lenders”), Citibank, N.A., New York Branch, as Facility Agent and as Collateral Agent (in such capacity, together with any successor Facility Agent, the “Facility Agent”), have entered into a Credit Agreement, dated as of October 21, 2015 (as amended, modified, restated and/or supplemented from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), providing for the making of Loans to the Borrower as contemplated therein (the Lenders, the Collateral Agent and the Facility Agent are herein called the “Lender Creditors”);

WHEREAS, the Parent and the Borrower may at any time and from time to time enter into, or guaranty the obligations of one or more Subsidiary Guarantors or any of their respective Subsidiaries under, one or more Interest Rate Protection Agreements or Other Hedging Agreements with respect to the Borrower’s obligations under the Credit Agreement with respect to the outstanding Loans and/or Commitment from time to time with one or more Lenders or any affiliate thereof (each such Lender or affiliate, even if the respective Lender subsequently ceases to be a Lender under the Credit Agreement for any reason, together with such Lender’s or affiliate’s successors and assigns, if any, collectively, the “Other Creditors” and, together with the Lender Creditors, the “Secured Creditors”);

WHEREAS, each Subsidiary Guarantor is a direct or indirect Subsidiary of the Borrower;

WHEREAS, it is a condition to the making of Loans to the Borrower under the Credit Agreement that each Subsidiary Guarantor shall have executed and delivered this Subsidiaries Guaranty; and

WHEREAS, each Subsidiary Guarantor will obtain benefits from the incurrence of Loans by the Borrower under the Credit Agreement and the entering into by the Borrower of Interest Rate Protection Agreements or Other Hedging Agreements and, accordingly, desires to execute this Subsidiaries Guaranty in order to satisfy the conditions described in the preceding paragraph;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and other benefits accruing to each Subsidiary Guarantor, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby makes the following representations and warranties to the Secured Creditors and hereby covenants and agrees with each Secured Creditor as follows:

1. Each Subsidiary Guarantor, jointly and severally, irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally guarantees: (i) to the Lender Creditors the full and prompt payment when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of (x) the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes, if any, issued by, and the Loans made to, the Borrower under the Credit Agreement, and (y) all other obligations (including obligations which, but for the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision of any Debtor Relief Laws, would become due), liabilities and indebtedness owing by the Borrower to the Lender Creditors (in the capacities referred to in the definition of Lender Creditors) under the Credit Agreement and each other Credit Document to which the Borrower is a party (including, without limitation, indemnities, fees and interest thereon (including any interest accruing after the commencement of any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws at the rate provided for in the Credit Agreement, whether or not such interest is an allowed claim in any such proceeding)), whether now existing or hereafter incurred under, arising out of or in connection with the Credit Agreement and any such other Credit Document and the due performance and compliance by the Borrower with all of the terms, conditions and agreements contained in all such Credit Documents (all such principal, premium, interest, liabilities, indebtedness and obligations being herein collectively called the “Credit Document Obligations”); and (ii) to each Other Creditor the full and prompt payment when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of all obligations (including obligations which, but for the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision of any Debtor Relief Laws, would become due), liabilities and indebtedness (including any interest accruing after the commencement of any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws at the rate provided for in the respective Interest Rate Protection Agreements or Other Hedging Agreements, whether or not such interest is an allowed claim in any such proceeding) owing by the Borrower under any Interest Rate Protection Agreement or Other Hedging Agreement entered into in respect of the Borrower’s obligations with respect to the outstanding Loans and/or Commitments from time to time, whether now in existence or hereafter arising, and the due performance and compliance by the Borrower with all of the terms, conditions and agreements contained in each such Interest Rate Protection Agreement and Other Hedging Agreement to which it is a party (all such obligations, liabilities and indebtedness being herein collectively called the “Other Obligations” and, together with the Credit Document Obligations, the “Guaranteed Obligations”). As used herein, the term “Guaranteed Party” shall mean the Borrower party to or as guarantor of the Parent or any Subsidiary Guarantor or their respective Subsidiaries party to any Interest Rate Protection Agreement or Other Hedging Agreement with an Other Creditor. Each Subsidiary Guarantor understands, agrees and confirms that the Secured Creditors may enforce this Subsidiaries Guaranty up to the full amount of the Guaranteed Obligations against such Subsidiary Guarantor without proceeding against any other Subsidiary Guarantor, the Parent, the Borrower, any other Guaranteed Party, against any security for the Guaranteed Obligations, or under any other guaranty covering all or a portion of the Guaranteed Obligations.

2. Additionally, each Subsidiary Guarantor, jointly and severally, unconditionally, absolutely and irrevocably, guarantees the payment of any and all Guaranteed Obligations whether or not due or payable by the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party upon the occurrence in respect of the Borrower or any such other Guaranteed Party of any of the events specified in Section 9.05 of the Credit Agreement, and unconditionally and irrevocably, jointly and severally, promises to pay such Guaranteed Obligations to the Secured Creditors, or order, on demand. This Subsidiaries Guaranty shall constitute a guaranty of payment, and not of collection.

3. The liability of each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder is primary, absolute, joint and several, and unconditional and is exclusive and independent of any security for or other guaranty of the indebtedness of the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party whether executed by such Subsidiary Guarantor, any other Subsidiary Guarantor, the Parent, any other guarantor or by any other party, and the liability of each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected or impaired by any circumstance or occurrence whatsoever, including, without limitation: (a) any direction as to application of payment by the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party or by any other party, (b) any other continuing or other guaranty, undertaking or maximum liability of a Subsidiary Guarantor, any other guarantor or of any other party as to the Guaranteed Obligations, (c) any payment on or in reduction of any such other guaranty or undertaking, (d) any dissolution, termination or increase, decrease or change in personnel by the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party, (e) to the extent permitted by applicable law, any payment made to any Secured Creditor on the indebtedness which any Secured Creditor repays the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party pursuant to court order in any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other debtor relief proceeding, and each Subsidiary Guarantor waives any right to the deferral or modification of its obligations hereunder by reason of any such proceeding, (f) any action or inaction by the Secured Creditors as contemplated in Section 6 hereof or (g) any invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or of any security therefor.

4. The obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of any other Subsidiary Guarantor, any other guarantor, the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against each Subsidiary Guarantor whether or not action is brought against any other Subsidiary Guarantor, any other guarantor, the Parent, the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party and whether or not any other Subsidiary Guarantor, any other guarantor, the Parent, the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party be joined in any such action or actions. Each Subsidiary Guarantor waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the benefits of any statute of limitations affecting its liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof. Any payment by the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party or other circumstance which operates to toll any statute of limitations as to the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party shall operate to toll the statute of limitations as to each Subsidiary Guarantor.

5. Any Secured Creditor may at any time and from time to time without the consent of, or notice to, any Subsidiary Guarantor, without incurring responsibility to such Subsidiary Guarantor, without impairing or releasing the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder, upon or without any terms or conditions and in whole or in part:

(a) change the manner, place or terms of payment of, and/or change, increase or extend the time of payment of, renew or alter, any of the Guaranteed Obligations (including any increase or decrease in the rate of interest thereon or the principal amount thereof), any security therefor, or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof, and the guaranty herein made shall apply to the Guaranteed Obligations as so changed, extended, renewed or altered;

(b) take and hold security for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations and sell, exchange, release, surrender, impair, realize upon or otherwise deal with in any manner and in any order any property by whomsoever at any time pledged or mortgaged to secure, or howsoever securing, the Guaranteed Obligations or any liabilities (including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and/or any offset there against;

(c) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Borrower, any other Guaranteed Party, any other Credit Party, any Subsidiary thereof or otherwise act or refrain from acting;

(d) release or substitute any one or more endorsers, Subsidiary Guarantors, other guarantors, the Borrower, any other Guaranteed Party, or other obligors;

(e) settle or compromise any of the Guaranteed Obligations, any security therefor or any liability (including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and may subordinate the payment of all or any part thereof to the payment of any liability (whether due or not) of the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party to creditors of the Borrower or such other Guaranteed Party other than the Secured Creditors;

(f) apply any sums by whomsoever paid or howsoever realized to any liability or liabilities of the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party to the Secured Creditors regardless of what liabilities of the Borrower or such other Guaranteed Party remain unpaid;

(g) consent to or waive any breach of, or any act, omission or default under, any of the Interest Rate Protection Agreements or Other Hedging Agreements, the Credit Documents or any of the instruments or agreements referred to therein, or otherwise amend, modify or supplement (in accordance with their terms) any of the Interest Rate Protection Agreements or Other Hedging Agreements, the Credit Documents or any of such other instruments or agreements;

(h) act or fail to act in any manner which may deprive such Subsidiary Guarantor of its right to subrogation against the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party to recover full indemnity for any payments made pursuant to this Subsidiaries Guaranty; and/or

(i) take any other action which would, under otherwise applicable principles of common law, give rise to a legal or equitable discharge of such Subsidiary Guarantor from its liabilities under this Subsidiaries Guaranty.

6. This Subsidiaries Guaranty is a continuing one and all liabilities to which it applies or may apply under the terms hereof shall be conclusively presumed to have been created in reliance hereon. No failure or delay on the part of any Secured Creditor in exercising any

right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder. The rights and remedies herein expressly specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which any Secured Creditor would otherwise have hereunder. No notice to or demand on any Subsidiary Guarantor in any case shall entitle such Subsidiary Guarantor to any other further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of any Secured Creditor to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. It is not necessary for any Secured Creditor to inquire into the capacity or powers of the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party or the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on its or their behalf, and any indebtedness made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed hereunder.

7. Any indebtedness of the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party now or hereafter held by any Subsidiary Guarantor is hereby subordinated to the indebtedness of the Borrower or such other Guaranteed Party to the Secured Creditors, and such indebtedness of the Borrower or such other Guaranteed Party to any Subsidiary Guarantor, if the Facility Agent or the Collateral Agent, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, so requests, shall be collected, enforced and received by such Subsidiary Guarantor as trustee for the Secured Creditors and be paid over to the Secured Creditors on account of the indebtedness of the Borrower or the other Guaranteed Parties to the Secured Creditors, but without affecting or impairing in any manner the liability of such Subsidiary Guarantor under the other provisions of this Subsidiaries Guaranty. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees with the Secured Creditors that it will not exercise any right of subrogation which it may at any time otherwise have as a result of this Subsidiaries Guaranty (whether contractual, under Section 509 of the Bankruptcy Code, or similar provision of any other Debtor Relief Law or otherwise) until all Guaranteed Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full in cash.

8. (a) Each Subsidiary Guarantor waives any right (except as shall be required by applicable law and cannot be waived) to require the Secured Creditors to: (i) proceed against the Borrower, the Parent, any other Guaranteed Party, any other Subsidiary Guarantor, any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other party; (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from the Borrower, the Parent, any other Guaranteed Party, any other Subsidiary Guarantor, any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other party; or (iii) pursue any other remedy in the Secured Creditors’ power whatsoever. Each Subsidiary Guarantor waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of the Borrower, the Parent, any other Guaranteed Party, any other Subsidiary Guarantor, any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other party other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations, including, without limitation, any defense based on or arising out of the disability of the Borrower, the Parent, any other Guaranteed Party, any other Subsidiary Guarantor, any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other party, or the unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of the Borrower, the Parent, or any other Guaranteed Party other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations. The Secured Creditors may, at their election, foreclose on any security held by the Facility Agent, the Collateral Agent or the other Secured Creditors by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, whether or not every aspect of any such sale is commercially

reasonable, or exercise any other right or remedy the Secured Creditors may have against the Borrower, the Parent, any other Guaranteed Party or any other party, or any security, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder except to the extent the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid in full in cash. Each Subsidiary Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election by the Secured Creditors, even though such election operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of such Subsidiary Guarantor against the Borrower, the Parent, any other Guaranteed Party or any other party or any security.

(b) Each Subsidiary Guarantor waives all presentments, promptness, diligence, demands for performance, protests and notices, including, without limitation, notices of nonperformance, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of this Subsidiaries Guaranty, and notices of the existence, creation or incurring of new or additional indebtedness. Each Subsidiary Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the Borrower’s, the Parent’s and each other Guaranteed Party’s financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks which such Subsidiary Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that the Secured Creditors shall have no duty to advise any Subsidiary Guarantor of information known to them regarding such circumstances or risks.

Each Subsidiary Guarantor warrants and agrees that each of the waivers set forth above in this Section 8 is made with full knowledge of its significance and consequences and that if any of such waivers are determined to be contrary to any applicable law or public policy, such waivers shall be effective only to the maximum extent permitted by law.

9. (a) The Secured Creditors agree that this Subsidiaries Guaranty may be enforced only by the action of the Facility Agent or the Collateral Agent, in each case acting upon the instructions of the Lenders (or, after the date on which all Credit Document Obligations have been paid in full, the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding Other Obligations) and that no other Secured Creditors shall have any right individually to seek to enforce or to enforce this Subsidiaries Guaranty, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised by the Facility Agent or the Collateral Agent or, after all the Credit Document Obligations have been paid in full, by the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding Other Obligations, as the case may be, for the benefit of the Secured Creditors upon the terms of this Subsidiaries Guaranty. The Secured Creditors further agree that this Subsidiaries Guaranty may not be enforced against any director, officer, employee, partner, member or stockholder of any Subsidiary Guarantor (except to the extent such partner, member or stockholder is also a Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder).

(b) The Facility Agent and Collateral Agent will hold in accordance with this Subsidiaries Guaranty all collateral at any time received under this Subsidiaries Guaranty. It is expressly understood and agreed by each Secured Creditor that by accepting the benefits of this Subsidiaries Guaranty each such Secured Creditor acknowledges and agrees that the obligations of the Facility Agent and Collateral Agent as enforcer of this Subsidiaries Guaranty and interests herein are only those expressly set forth in this Subsidiaries Guaranty and in Section 10 of the Credit Agreement. The Facility Agent and Collateral Agent shall act hereunder on the terms and conditions set forth herein and in Section 10 of the Credit Agreement.

10. In order to induce the Lenders to make Loans to the Borrower pursuant to the Credit Agreement, and in order to induce the Other Creditors to execute, deliver and perform the Interest Rate Protection Agreements and Other Hedging Agreements, each Subsidiary Guarantor represents, warrants and covenants that:

(a) Such Subsidiary Guarantor (i) is a duly organized and validly existing corporation, limited partnership or limited liability company, as the case may be, in good standing (or the equivalent) under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation, (ii) has the corporate or other applicable power and authority, as the case may be, to own its property and assets and to transact the business in which it is currently engaged and presently proposes to engage and (iii) is duly qualified and is authorized to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where the conduct of its business as currently conducted requires such qualification, except for failures to be so qualified which, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Such Subsidiary Guarantor has the corporate or other applicable power and authority to execute, deliver and perform the terms and provisions of this Subsidiaries Guaranty and each other Credit Document to which it is a party and has taken all necessary corporate or other applicable action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance by it of this Subsidiaries Guaranty and each such other Credit Document. Such Subsidiary Guarantor has duly executed and delivered this Subsidiaries Guaranty and each other Credit Document to which it is a party, and this Subsidiaries Guaranty and each such other Credit Document constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Subsidiary Guarantor enforceable against such Subsidiary Guarantor in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that the enforceability hereof or thereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws generally affecting creditors’ rights and by equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law).

(c) Neither the execution, delivery or performance by such Subsidiary Guarantor of this Subsidiaries Guaranty or any other Credit Document to which it is a party, nor compliance by it with the terms and provisions hereof and thereof, will (i) contravene any provision of any applicable law, statute, rule or regulation or any applicable order, judgment, writ, injunction or decree of any court or governmental instrumentality, (ii) conflict with or result in any breach of any of the terms, covenants, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of (or the obligation to create or impose) any Lien (except pursuant to the Security Documents) upon any of the material properties or assets of such Subsidiary Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement or credit agreement, or any other material agreement, contract or instrument, to which such Subsidiary Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which it or any of its material property or assets is bound or to which it may be subject or (iii) violate any provision of the Organizational Documents of such Subsidiary Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries.

(d) No order, consent, approval, license, authorization or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with (except as have been obtained or made prior to the date when required and which remain in full force and effect), or exemption by, any governmental or public

body or authority, or any subdivision thereof, is required to authorize, or is required in connection with, (i) the execution, delivery and performance of this Subsidiaries Guaranty by such Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Credit Document to which such Subsidiary Guarantor is a party or (ii) the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of this Subsidiaries Guaranty or any other Credit Document to which such Subsidiary Guarantor is a party.

(e) Except as set forth in the most recent S-1 Registration Statement of the Parent (filed with the SEC on June 22, 2015), there are no actions, suits, investigations (conducted by any governmental or other regulatory body of competent jurisdiction) or proceedings pending or, to such Subsidiary Guarantor’s knowledge, threatened against such Subsidiary Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries (i) with respect to this Subsidiaries Guaranty or any other Credit Document to which such Subsidiary Guarantor is a party or (ii) that, either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(f) Without duplication of any other provision in this Subsidiaries Guaranty, the representations and warranties of the Credit Parties set forth in the Credit Agreement shall be deemed to be given by the Subsidiary Guarantors in this Subsidiaries Guaranty as if such representations and warranties were set out in full herein.

11. Each Subsidiary Guarantor covenants and agrees that on and after the Closing Date and until the termination of the Commitments and all Interest Rate Protection Agreements and Other Hedging Agreements entered into with respect to the Loans and until such time as no Notes remain outstanding and all Guaranteed Obligations have been paid in full, such Subsidiary Guarantor will comply, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to comply, with all of the applicable provisions, covenants and agreements contained in Sections 7 and 8 of the Credit Agreement, and will take, or will refrain from taking, as the case may be, all actions that are necessary to be taken or not taken so that it is not in violation of any provision, covenant or agreement contained in Section 7 or 8 of the Credit Agreement, and so that no Default or Event of Default is caused by the actions of such Subsidiary Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries.

12. The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of (i) each Secured Creditor in connection with the enforcement of this Subsidiaries Guaranty (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel employed by each Secured Creditor) and (ii) the Facility Agent in connection with any amendment, waiver or consent relating hereto (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel employed by the Facility Agent).

13. This Subsidiaries Guaranty shall be binding upon each Subsidiary Guarantor and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Secured Creditors and their successors and assigns.

14. Neither this Subsidiaries Guaranty nor any provision hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated except with the written consent of each Subsidiary Guarantor directly affected thereby and with the written consent of (x) the Facility Agent (or, to the extent required by Section 11.13 of the Credit Agreement, with the written consent of the Required Lenders) at all times prior to the time on which all Credit Document Obligations have been paid in full or (y) the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding Other Obligations at all times

after the time on which all Credit Document Obligations have been paid in full; provided, that any change, waiver, modification or variance affecting the rights and benefits of a single Class (as defined below) of Secured Creditors (and not all Secured Creditors in a like or similar manner) shall also require the written consent of the Requisite Creditors (as defined below) of such Class of Secured Creditors (it being understood that the addition or release of any Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder shall not constitute a change, waiver, discharge or termination affecting any Subsidiary Guarantor other than the Subsidiary Guarantor so added or released). For the purpose of this Subsidiaries Guaranty, the term “Class” shall mean each class of Secured Creditors, i.e., whether (x) the Lender Creditors as holders of the Credit Document Obligations or (y) the Other Creditors as the holders of the Other Obligations. For the purpose of this Subsidiaries Guaranty, the term “Requisite Creditors” of any Class shall mean (x) with respect to the Credit Document Obligations, the Required Lenders (or, to the extent required by Section 11.13 of the Credit Agreement, each Lender) and (y) with respect to the Other Obligations, the holders of at least a majority of all obligations outstanding from time to time under the Interest Rate Protection Agreements and Other Hedging Agreements entered into with respect to the Loans (and/or the Commitments).

15. Each Subsidiary Guarantor acknowledges that an executed (or conformed) copy of each of the Credit Documents and each existing Interest Rate Protection Agreement or Other Hedging Agreement has been made available to a senior officer of such Subsidiary Guarantor and such officer is familiar with the contents thereof.

16. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 151 of the New York Debtor and Secured Creditor Law) and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (such term to mean and include any “Event of Default” as defined in the Credit Agreement and any payment default under any Interest Rate Protection Agreement or Other Hedging Agreement continuing after any applicable grace period), each Secured Creditor is hereby authorized, at any time or from time to time, without notice to any Subsidiary Guarantor or to any other Person, any such notice being expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Secured Creditor to or for the credit or the account of such Subsidiary Guarantor, against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor to such Secured Creditor under this Subsidiaries Guaranty, irrespective of whether or not such Secured Creditor shall have made any demand hereunder and although said obligations, liabilities, deposits or claims, or any of them, shall be contingent or unmatured.

17. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including emailed, telegraphic or telecopier communication) and mailed, emailed, telecopied or delivered: if to any Subsidiary Guarantor, at c/o Gener8 Maritime, Inc., as agent, 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx, 00000-0000, with copies to Xxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxxxx LLP, 0000 Xxxxxx xx xxx Xxxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, Attention: Xxxxxxx Xxxx, Esq., Telephone No.: (000) 000-0000, Telecopier No.: (000) 000-0000; if to any Secured Creditor, at its address specified opposite its name on Schedule II to the Credit Agreement; and if to the Facility Agent, at its address specified opposite its name on Schedule II to the Credit Agreement; or, as to any other Credit Party, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the

18. If claim is ever made upon any Secured Creditor for repayment or recovery of any amount or amounts received in payment or on account of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and any of the aforesaid payees repays all or part of said amount by reason of (i) any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body having jurisdiction over such payee or any of its property or (ii) any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected by such payee with any such claimant (including the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party) then and in such event each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that any such judgment, decree, order, settlement or compromise shall be binding upon such Subsidiary Guarantor, notwithstanding any revocation hereof or other instrument evidencing any liability of the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party, and such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be and remain liable to the aforesaid payees hereunder for the amount so repaid or recovered to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been received by any such payee.

19. (a) THIS SUBSIDIARIES GUARANTY AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND BE GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Subsidiaries Guaranty or any other Credit Document to which any Subsidiary Guarantor is a party may be brought in the courts of the State of New York or of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York in each case which are located in New York County in the City of New York, and, by execution and delivery of this Subsidiaries Guaranty, each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby irrevocably accepts for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, the jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby further irrevocably waives (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) any claim that any such court lacks personal jurisdiction over such Subsidiary Guarantor, and agrees not to plead or claim in any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Subsidiaries Guaranty or any other Credit Document to which such Subsidiary Guarantor is a party brought in any of the aforesaid courts that any such court lacks personal jurisdiction over such Subsidiary Guarantor. Each Subsidiary Guarantor further irrevocably consents to the service of process out of any of the aforementioned courts in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of copies thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to such Subsidiary Guarantor at its address set forth in Section 17 hereof, such service to become effective 30 days after such mailing. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) any objection to such service of process and further irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any action or proceeding commenced hereunder or under any other Credit Document to which such Subsidiary Guarantor is a party that such service of process was in any way invalid or ineffective. Nothing herein shall affect the right of any of the Secured Creditors to serve process in any other manner permitted by

law or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against each Subsidiary Guarantor in any other jurisdiction.

(b) Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any of the aforesaid actions or proceedings arising out of or in connection with this Subsidiaries Guaranty or any other Credit Document to which such Subsidiary Guarantor is a party brought in the courts referred to in clause (a) above and hereby further irrevocably waives (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that such action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

(c) EACH SUBSIDIARY GUARANTOR AND EACH SECURED CREDITOR (BY ITS ACCEPTANCE OF THE BENEFITS OF THIS SUBSIDIARIES GUARANTY) HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS SUBSIDIARIES GUARANTY, THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS TO WHICH SUCH SUBSIDIARY GUARANTOR IS A PARTY OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

20. In the event that all of the capital stock or other equity interests of one or more Subsidiary Guarantors is sold or otherwise disposed of or liquidated in compliance with the requirements of Section 8.02 of the Credit Agreement (or such sale or other disposition has been approved in writing by the Required Lenders (or all the Lenders if required by Section 11.13 of the Credit Agreement)) and the proceeds of such sale, disposition or liquidation are applied in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, to the extent applicable, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall upon consummation of such sale or other disposition (except to the extent that such sale or disposition is to the Borrower or another Subsidiary thereof) be released from this Subsidiaries Guaranty automatically and without further action and this Subsidiaries Guaranty shall, as to each such Subsidiary Guarantor or Subsidiary Guarantors, terminate, and have no further force or effect (it being understood and agreed that the sale of one or more Persons that own, directly or indirectly, all of the capital stock or other equity interests of any Subsidiary Guarantor shall be deemed to be a sale of such Subsidiary Guarantor for the purposes of this Section 20).

21. At any time a payment in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is made under this Subsidiaries Guaranty, the right of contribution of each Subsidiary Guarantor against each other Subsidiary Guarantor shall be determined as provided in the immediately following sentence, with the right of contribution of each Subsidiary Guarantor to be revised and restated as of each date on which a payment (a “Relevant Payment”) is made on the Guaranteed Obligations under this Subsidiaries Guaranty. At any time that a Relevant Payment is made by a Subsidiary Guarantor that results in the aggregate payments made by such Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations to and including the date of the Relevant Payment exceeding such Subsidiary Guarantor’s Contribution Percentage (as defined below) of the aggregate payments made by all Subsidiary Guarantors in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations to and including the date of the Relevant Payment (such excess, the “Aggregate Excess Amount”), each such Subsidiary Guarantor shall have a right of contribution against each other

Subsidiary Guarantor who has made payments in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations to and including the date of the Relevant Payment in an aggregate amount less than such other Subsidiary Guarantor’s Contribution Percentage of the aggregate payments made to and including the date of the Relevant Payment by all Subsidiary Guarantors in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations (the aggregate amount of such deficit, the “Aggregate Deficit Amount”) in an amount equal to (x) a fraction the numerator of which is the Aggregate Excess Amount of such Subsidiary Guarantor and the denominator of which is the Aggregate Excess Amount of all Subsidiary Guarantors multiplied by (y) the Aggregate Deficit Amount of such other Subsidiary Guarantor. A Subsidiary Guarantor’s right of contribution pursuant to the preceding sentences shall arise at the time of each computation, subject to adjustment to the time of each computation; provided that no Subsidiary Guarantor may take any action to enforce such right until the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid in full in cash, it being expressly recognized and agreed by all parties hereto that any Subsidiary Guarantor’s right of contribution arising pursuant to this Section 21 against any other Subsidiary Guarantor shall be expressly junior and subordinate to such other Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations and liabilities in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations and any other obligations owing under this Subsidiaries Guaranty. As used in this Section 21: (i) each Subsidiary Guarantor’s “Contribution Percentage” shall mean the percentage obtained by dividing (x) the Adjusted Net Worth (as defined below) of such Subsidiary Guarantor by (y) the aggregate Adjusted Net Worth of all Subsidiary Guarantors; (ii) the “Adjusted Net Worth” of each Subsidiary Guarantor shall mean the greater of (x) the Net Worth (as defined below) of such Subsidiary Guarantor and (y) zero; and (iii) the “Net Worth” of each Subsidiary Guarantor shall mean the amount by which the fair saleable value of such Subsidiary Guarantor’s assets on the date of any Relevant Payment exceeds its existing debts and other liabilities (including contingent liabilities, but without giving effect to any Guaranteed Obligations arising under this Subsidiaries Guaranty) on such date. All parties hereto recognize and agree that, except for any right of contribution arising pursuant to this Section 21, each Subsidiary Guarantor who makes any payment in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations shall have no right of contribution or subrogation against any other Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of such payment until all of the Guaranteed Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full in cash. Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors recognizes and acknowledges that the rights to contribution arising hereunder shall constitute an asset in favor of the party entitled to such contribution. In this connection, each Subsidiary Guarantor has the right to waive its contribution right against any Subsidiary Guarantor to the extent that after giving effect to such waiver such Subsidiary Guarantor would remain solvent, in the determination of the Required Lenders.

22. Each Subsidiary Guarantor and each Secured Creditor (by its acceptance of the benefits of this Subsidiaries Guaranty) hereby confirms that it is its intention that this Subsidiaries Guaranty not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of the Bankruptcy Code, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar Federal or state law. To effectuate the foregoing intention, each Subsidiary Guarantor and each Secured Creditor (by its acceptance of the benefits of this Subsidiaries Guaranty) hereby irrevocably agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed by such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be limited to such amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other (contingent or otherwise) liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor that are relevant under such laws and after giving effect to any rights to contribution pursuant to any agreement providing for an equitable contribution among such Subsidiary Guarantor and the

other Subsidiary Guarantors, result in the Guaranteed Obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of such maximum amount not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

23. This Subsidiaries Guaranty may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original (including if delivered by facsimile transmission), but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. A set of counterparts executed by all the parties hereto shall be lodged with the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Facility Agent.

24. (a) All payments made by any Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder will be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense, will be made in the currency or currencies in which the respective Guaranteed Obligations are then due and payable and will be made on the same basis as payments are made by the Borrower under Sections 4.03 and 4.04 of the Credit Agreement.

(b) The Subsidiary Guarantors’ obligations hereunder to make payments in the respective currency or currencies in which the respective Guaranteed Obligations are required to be paid (such currency being herein called the “Obligation Currency”) shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed in or converted into any currency other than the Obligation Currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery results in the effective receipt by the Facility Agent, the Collateral Agent or the respective other Secured Creditor of the full amount of the Obligation Currency expressed to be payable to the Facility Agent, the Collateral Agent or such other Secured Creditor under this Subsidiaries Guaranty or the other Credit Documents or any Interest Rate Protection Agreement or Other Hedging Agreement, as applicable. If for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against any Subsidiary Guarantor in any court or in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into or from any currency other than the Obligation Currency (such other currency being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due in the Obligation Currency, the conversion shall be made, at the rate of exchange (quoted by the Facility Agent, determined, in each case, as of the date immediately preceding the day on which the judgment is given (such Business Day being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency Conversion Date”).

(c) If there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Currency Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount due, the Subsidiary Guarantors jointly and severally covenant and agree to pay, or cause to be paid, such additional amounts, if any (but in any event not a lesser amount), as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the Obligation Currency which could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial award at the rate or exchange prevailing on the Judgment Currency Conversion Date.

(d) For purposes of determining any rate of exchange for this Section 24, such amounts shall include any premium and costs payable in connection with the purchase of the Obligation Currency.

25. It is understood and agreed that any Subsidiary of the Borrower that is required to execute a counterpart of this Subsidiaries Guaranty after the date hereof pursuant to

the Credit Agreement shall automatically become a Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder by executing a counterpart hereof and/or a joinder agreement, in each case in form and substance satisfactory to the Facility Agent, and delivering the same to the Facility Agent.

26. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Subsidiary Guarantor to honor all of its obligations under the guarantee contained herein in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 26 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 26, or otherwise under this Subsidiaries Guaranty, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section 26 shall remain in full force and effect until the termination of this Subsidiaries Guaranty in accordance with its terms. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 26 constitute, and this Section 26 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Subsidiary Guarantor for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act. For the purposes of this Subsidiaries Guaranty “Qualified ECP Guarantor” shall mean, in respect of any Swap Obligation, each Loan Party that has total assets exceeding $10,000,000 at the time the relevant guarantee or grant of the relevant security interest becomes effective with respect to such Swap Obligation is incurred or such other person as constitutes an ECP under the Commodity Exchange Act or any regulations promulgated thereunder and can cause another person to qualify as an ECP at such time by entering into a “keepwell” under Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each Subsidiary Guarantor has caused this Subsidiaries Guaranty to be executed and delivered as of the date first above written.

(ii) with respect to an Uncertificated Security (other than an Uncertificated Security credited on the books of a Clearing Corporation), such Pledgor shall cause the issuer of such Uncertificated Security (or, in the case of an issuer that is not a Subsidiary of such Pledgor, will use reasonable efforts to cause such issuer) to duly authorize and execute, and deliver to the Pledgee, an agreement for the benefit of the Pledgee and the other Secured Creditors substantially in the form of Annex G hereto (appropriately completed to the reasonable satisfaction of the Pledgee and with such modifications, if any, as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Pledgee) pursuant to which such issuer agrees to comply with any and all instructions originated by the Pledgee without further consent by the registered owner and not to comply with instructions regarding such Uncertificated Security originated by any other Person other than a court of competent jurisdiction;

Such Pledgor further agrees to take such actions as the Pledgee deems reasonably necessary to effect the foregoing;

(ii) each Pledgor shall from time to time cause appropriate financing statements (on Form UCC-1 or other appropriate form) under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the various relevant states, covering all Collateral hereunder (with the form of such financing statements to be satisfactory to the Pledgee), to be filed in the relevant filing offices so that at all times the Pledgee has a security interest in all Collateral which is perfected by the filing of such financing statements (in each case to the maximum extent perfection by filing may be obtained under the laws of the relevant states, including, without limitation, Section 9-312(a) of the UCC).

3.3. Subsequently Acquired Collateral. If any Pledgor shall acquire (by purchase, stock dividend or similar distribution or otherwise) any additional Collateral at any time or from time to time after the date hereof, such Collateral shall automatically (and without any further action being required to be taken) be subject to the pledge and security interests created pursuant to Section 3.1 hereof and, furthermore, such Pledgor will promptly thereafter take (or cause to be taken) all action with respect to such Collateral in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 3.2 hereof, and will promptly thereafter deliver to the Pledgee (i) a certificate executed by a principal executive officer of such Pledgor describing such Collateral and certifying that the same has been duly pledged in favor of the Pledgee (for the benefit of the Secured Creditors) hereunder and (ii) supplements to Annexes A through F hereto as are reasonably necessary to cause such annexes to be complete and accurate at such time.

5. VOTING, ETC., WHILE NO EVENT OF DEFAULT. Unless and until there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default, each Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the Collateral owned by it, and to give consents, waivers or ratifications in respect thereof; provided that, in each case, no vote shall be cast or any consent, waiver or ratification given or any action taken or omitted to be taken which would violate or be inconsistent with any of the terms of any Secured Debt Agreement, or which could reasonably be expected to have the effect of impairing the value of the Collateral or any part thereof or the position or interests of the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor in the Collateral unless expressly permitted by the terms of the Secured Debt Agreements. All such rights of each Pledgor to vote and to give consents, waivers and ratifications shall cease in case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and Section 7 hereof shall become applicable.

6. DIVIDENDS AND OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS. Unless and until there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default, all cash dividends, cash distributions, cash Proceeds and other cash amounts payable in respect of the Collateral shall be paid to the Pledgors. The Pledgee shall be entitled to receive directly, and to retain as part of the Collateral:

(i) all other or additional stock, notes, limited liability company interests, partnership interests, instruments or other securities or property (including, but not limited to, cash dividends other than as set forth above in the first sentence of this Section 6) paid or distributed by way of dividend or otherwise in respect of the Collateral;

All dividends, distributions or other payments which are received by any Pledgor contrary to the provisions of this Section 6 and Section 7 hereof shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Pledgee, shall be segregated from other property or funds of such Pledgor and shall be forthwith paid over and/or delivered to the Pledgee as Collateral in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement).

7. REMEDIES IN CASE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT. If there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default, then and in every such case, the Pledgee shall be

entitled to exercise all of the rights, powers and remedies (whether vested in it by this Agreement, any other Secured Debt Agreement or by law) for the protection and enforcement of its rights in respect of the Collateral, and the Pledgee shall be entitled to exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction and also shall be entitled, without limitation, to exercise the following rights, which each Pledgor hereby agrees to be commercially reasonable:

(i) to receive all amounts payable in respect of the Collateral otherwise payable under Section 6 hereof to the Pledgors;

(ii) to transfer all or any part of the Collateral into the Pledgee’s name or the name of its nominee or nominees;

(iii) to vote all or any part of the Collateral (whether or not transferred into the name of the Pledgee) and give all consents, waivers and ratifications in respect of the Collateral and otherwise act with respect thereto as though it were the outright owner thereof (each Pledgor hereby irrevocably constituting and appointing the Pledgee the proxy and attorney-in-fact of such Pledgor, with full power of substitution to do so);

(iv) at any time and from time to time to sell, assign and deliver, or grant options to purchase, all or any part of the Collateral, or any interest therein, at any public or private sale, without demand of performance, advertisement or notice of intention to sell or of the time or place of sale or adjournment thereof or to redeem or otherwise (all of which are hereby waived by each Pledgor), for cash, on credit or for other property, for immediate or future delivery without any assumption of credit risk, and for such price or prices and on such terms as the Pledgee in its absolute discretion may determine, provided that at least 10 days’ written notice of the time and place of any such sale shall be given to the Pledgors. The Pledgee shall not be obligated to make any such sale of Collateral regardless of whether any such notice of sale has theretofore been given. Each Pledgor hereby waives and releases to the fullest extent permitted by law any right or equity of redemption with respect to the Collateral, whether before or after sale hereunder, and all rights, if any, of marshalling the Collateral and any other security for the Obligations or otherwise. At any such sale, unless prohibited by applicable law, the Pledgee on behalf of the Secured Creditors may bid for and purchase all or any part of the Collateral so sold free from any such right or equity of redemption. Neither the Pledgee nor any other Secured Creditor shall be liable for failure to collect or realize upon any or all of the Collateral or for any delay in so doing nor shall any of them be under any obligation to take any action whatsoever with regard thereto; and

(v) to set-off any and all Collateral against any and all Obligations.

8. REMEDIES, ETC., CUMULATIVE. Each and every right, power and remedy of the Pledgee provided for in this Agreement or in any other Secured Debt Agreement, or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other such right, power or remedy. The exercise or beginning of the exercise by the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor of any one or more of the rights, powers or remedies provided for in this Agreement or any other Secured Debt Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by the Pledgee

or any other Secured Creditor of all such other rights, powers or remedies, and no failure or delay on the part of the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor to exercise any such right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof. No notice to or demand on any Pledgor in any case shall entitle it to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of any of the rights of the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. The Secured Creditors agree that this Agreement may be enforced only by the action of the Pledgee, in each case acting upon the instructions of the Required Lenders (or, after the date on which all Credit Document Obligations have been paid in full, the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding Other Obligations) and that no other Secured Creditor shall have any right individually to seek to enforce or to enforce this Agreement or to realize upon the security to be granted hereby, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised by the Pledgee for the benefit of the Secured Creditors upon the terms of this Agreement.

9. APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS. All monies collected by the Pledgee upon any sale or other disposition of the Collateral of each Pledgor, together with all other monies received by the Pledgee hereunder (except to the extent released in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement or any other Credit Document), shall be applied to the payment of the Obligations in the manner set forth in Section 4.05 of the Credit Agreement.

10. PURCHASERS OF COLLATERAL. Upon any sale of the Collateral by the Pledgee hereunder (whether by virtue of the power of sale herein granted, pursuant to judicial process or otherwise), the receipt of the Pledgee or the officer making the sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold, and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obligated to see to the application of any part of the purchase money paid over to the Pledgee or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication or nonapplication thereof.

11. INDEMNITY. Each Pledgor jointly and severally agrees (i) to indemnify and hold harmless the Pledgee and each other Secured Creditor and their respective successors, assigns, employees, agents and affiliates (individually an “Indemnitee,” and collectively the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all claims, demands, losses, judgments and liabilities (including liabilities for penalties) of whatsoever kind or nature, and (ii) to reimburse each Indemnitee for all reasonable costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, in each case growing out of or resulting from this Agreement or the exercise by any Indemnitee of any right or remedy granted to it hereunder or under any other Secured Debt Agreement (but excluding any claims, demands, losses, judgments and liabilities or expenses to the extent incurred by reason of gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision)). In no event shall the Pledgee be liable, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on its part, for any matter or thing in connection with this Agreement other than to account for monies actually received by it in accordance with the terms hereof. If and to the extent that the obligations of any Pledgor under this Section 11 are unenforceable for any reason, such Pledgor hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of such obligations which is permissible under applicable law.

12. PLEDGEE NOT A PARTNER OR LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY MEMBER. (a) Nothing herein shall be construed to make the Pledgee or any other Secured

Creditor liable as a member of any limited liability company or as a partner of any partnership and neither the Pledgee nor any other Secured Creditor by virtue of this Agreement or otherwise (except as referred to in the following sentence) shall have any of the duties, obligations or liabilities of a member of any limited liability company or partnership. The parties hereto expressly agree that, unless the Pledgee shall become the absolute owner of Collateral consisting of a Limited Liability Company Interest or Partnership Interest pursuant hereto, this Agreement shall not be construed as creating a partnership or joint venture among the Pledgee, any other Secured Creditor, any Pledgor and/or any other Person.

(b) Except as provided in the last sentence of paragraph (a) of this Section 12, the Pledgee, by accepting this Agreement, did not intend to become a member of any limited liability company or a partner of any partnership or otherwise be deemed to be a co-venturer with respect to any Pledgor, any limited liability company, partnership and/or any other Person either before or after an Event of Default shall have occurred. The Pledgee shall have only those powers set forth herein and the Secured Creditors shall assume none of the duties, obligations or liabilities of a member of any limited liability company or as a partner of any partnership or any Pledgor except as provided in the last sentence of paragraph (a) of this Section 12.

(c) The Pledgee and the other Secured Creditors shall not be obligated to perform or discharge any obligation of any Pledgor as a result of the pledge hereby effected.

(d) The acceptance by the Pledgee of this Agreement, with all the rights, powers, privileges and authority so created, shall not at any time or in any event obligate the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor to appear in or defend any action or proceeding relating to the Collateral to which it is not a party, or to take any action hereunder or thereunder, or to expend any money or incur any expenses or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability under the Collateral.

13. FURTHER ASSURANCES; POWER-OF-ATTORNEY. (a) Each Pledgor agrees that it will join with the Pledgee in executing and, at such Pledgor’s own expense, file and refile under the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law such financing statements, continuation statements and other documents in such offices as the Pledgee may deem reasonably necessary and wherever required by law in order to perfect and preserve the Pledgee’s security interest in the Collateral and hereby authorizes the Pledgee to file financing statements (including, without limitation, ‘all assets’ financing statements) and amendments thereto relative to all or any part of the Collateral without the signature of such Pledgor where permitted by law, and agrees to do such further acts and things and to execute and deliver to the Pledgee such additional conveyances, assignments, agreements and instruments as the Pledgee may reasonably require or deem necessary to carry into effect the purposes of this Agreement or to further assure and confirm unto the Pledgee its rights, powers and remedies hereunder.

(b) Each Pledgor hereby appoints the Pledgee such Pledgor’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Pledgor and in the name of such Pledgor or otherwise, to act from time to time solely after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default in the Pledgee’s reasonable discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument which the Pledgee may deem reasonably necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement.

14. THE PLEDGEE AS AGENT. The Pledgee will hold in accordance with this Agreement and the other Security Documents all items of the Collateral at any time received under this Agreement or the other Security Documents. It is expressly understood and agreed by each Secured Creditor that by accepting the benefits of this Agreement and the other Security Documents each such Secured Creditor acknowledges and agrees that the obligations of the Pledgee as holder of the Collateral and interests therein and with respect to the disposition thereof, and otherwise under this Agreement and the other Security Documents, are only those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Security Documents, and in Sections 4.05 and 10 of the Credit Agreement. The Pledgee shall act hereunder on the terms and conditions set forth herein and in Sections 4.05 and 10 of the Credit Agreement.

15. TRANSFER BY THE PLEDGORS. No Pledgor will sell or otherwise dispose of, grant any option with respect to, or mortgage, pledge or otherwise encumber any of the Collateral or any interest therein (except as may be permitted in accordance with the terms of the Secured Debt Agreements).

17. JURISDICTION OF ORGANIZATION; CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICE; RECORDS. The jurisdiction of organization of each Pledgor and chief executive office of each

Pledgor is located at the address specified in Annex A hereto. Each Pledgor will not change the jurisdiction of its organization or move its chief executive office except to such new jurisdiction or location as such Pledgor may establish in accordance with the last sentence of this Section 17. The originals of all documents in the possession of such Pledgor evidencing all Collateral, including but not limited to all Limited Liability Company Interests and Partnership Interests, and the only original books of account and records of such Pledgor relating thereto are, and will continue to be, kept at such chief executive office as specified in Annex A hereto, or at such new locations as such Pledgor may establish in accordance with the last sentence of this Section 17.

3. The Issuer hereby represents and warrants that (i) the pledge by the Pledgor of, and the granting by the Pledgor of a security interest in, the Issuer Pledged Interests to the Pledgee, for the benefit of the Secured Creditors, does not violate the charter, by-laws, partnership agreement, membership agreement or any other agreement governing the Issuer or the Issuer Pledged Interests, and (ii) the Issuer Pledged Interests are fully paid and nonassessable.

Form of Control Agreement Regarding Deposit Accounts

CONTROL AGREEMENT REGARDING DEPOSIT ACCOUNTS (as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, this “Agreement”), dated as of , , among the undersigned assignor (the “Assignor”) Citibank, N.A., New York Branch, not in its individual capacity but solely as Collateral Agent (the “Collateral Agent”), Nordea Bank Finland plc, New York Branch (the “Deposit Account Bank”), as the bank (as defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC as in effect on the date hereof in the State of New York (the “UCC”)) with which one or more deposit accounts (as defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC) are maintained by the Assignor (with all such deposit accounts now or at any time in the future maintained by the Assignor with the Deposit Account Bank being herein called the “Deposit Accounts”).

W I T N E S S E T H :

WHEREAS, the Assignor, various other assignors and the Collateral Agent have entered into a Pledge Agreement, dated as of October [·], 2015 (as amended, amended and restated, modified or supplemented from time to time, the “Pledge Agreement”; terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given thereto in the Pledge Agreement), under which, among other things, in order to secure the payment of the Obligations, the Assignor has granted a first priority security interest to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors in all of the right, title and interest of the Assignor in and into any and all deposit accounts (as defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC) listed on Schedule I hereto (the “Deposit Accounts”) and in all monies, securities, instruments and other investments deposited therein from time to time (collectively, herein called the “Collateral”); and

WHEREAS, the Assignor desires that the Deposit Account Bank enter into this Agreement in order to establish “control” (as defined in Section 9-104 of the UCC) in each Deposit Account listed on Schedule I hereto, and to provide for the rights of the parties under this Agreement with respect to such Deposit Accounts;

1. Assignor’s Dealings with Deposit Accounts; Notice of Exclusive Control. Until the Deposit Account Bank shall have received from the Collateral Agent a Notice of Exclusive Control (as defined below), the Assignor shall be entitled to present items drawn on and otherwise to withdraw or direct the disposition of funds from the Deposit Accounts and give instructions in respect of the Deposit Accounts; provided, however, that the Assignor may not, and the Deposit Account Bank agrees that it shall not permit the Assignor to, without the Collateral Agent’s prior written consent, close any Deposit Account. If upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default the Collateral Agent shall give to the Deposit Account Bank a notice of the Collateral Agent’s exclusive control of the Deposit Accounts, which notice states that it is a “Notice of Exclusive Control” (a “Notice of Exclusive Control”),

only the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to withdraw funds from the Deposit Accounts, to give any instructions in respect of the Deposit Accounts and any funds held therein or credited thereto or otherwise to deal with the Deposit Accounts.

2. Collateral Agent’s Right to Give Instructions as to Deposit Accounts. (a) Notwithstanding the foregoing or any separate agreement that the Assignor may have with the Deposit Account Bank, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default for purposes of this Agreement, at any time to give the Deposit Account Bank instructions as to the withdrawal or disposition of any funds from time to time credited to any Deposit Account, or as to any other matters relating to any Deposit Account or any other Collateral, without further consent from the Assignor. The Assignor hereby irrevocably authorizes and instructs the Deposit Account Bank, and the Deposit Account Bank hereby agrees, to comply with any such instructions from the Collateral Agent without any further consent from the Assignor. Such instructions may include the giving of stop payment orders for any items being presented to any Deposit Account for payment. The Deposit Account Bank shall be fully entitled to rely on, and shall comply with, such instructions from the Collateral Agent even if such instructions are contrary to any instructions or demands that the Assignor may give to the Deposit Account Bank. In case of any conflict between instructions received by the Deposit Account Bank from the Collateral Agent and the Assignor, the instructions from the Collateral Agent shall prevail.

(b) It is understood and agreed that the Deposit Account Bank’s duty to comply with instructions from the Collateral Agent regarding the Deposit Accounts is absolute, and the Deposit Account Bank shall be under no duty or obligation, nor shall it have the authority, to inquire or determine whether or not such instructions are in accordance with the Pledge Agreement or any other Credit Document, nor seek confirmation thereof from the Assignor or any other Person.

3. Assignor’s Exculpation and Indemnification of Depository Bank. The Assignor hereby irrevocably authorizes and instructs the Deposit Account Bank to follow instructions from the Collateral Agent regarding the Deposit Accounts even if the result of following such instructions from the Collateral Agent is that the Deposit Account Bank dishonors items presented for payment from any Deposit Account. The Assignor further confirms that the Deposit Account Bank shall have no liability to the Assignor for wrongful dishonor of such items in following such instructions from the Collateral Agent. The Deposit Account Bank shall have no duty to inquire or determine whether the Assignor’s obligations to the Collateral Agent are in default or whether the Collateral Agent is entitled, under any separate agreement between the Assignor and the Collateral Agent, to give any such instructions. The Assignor further agrees to be responsible for the Deposit Account Bank’s customary charges and to indemnify the Deposit Account Bank from and to hold the Deposit Account Bank harmless against any loss, cost or expense that the Deposit Account Bank may sustain or incur in acting upon instructions which the Deposit Account Bank believes in good faith to be instructions from the Collateral Agent excluding any loss, cost or expense to the extent incurred as a direct result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Deposit Account Bank.

4. Subordination of Security Interests; Deposit Account Bank’s Recourse to Deposit Accounts. The Deposit Account Bank hereby subordinates any claims and security

interests it may have against, or with respect to, any Deposit Account at any time established or maintained with it by the Assignor (including any amounts, investments, instruments or other Collateral from time to time on deposit therein) to the security interests of the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Creditors) therein, and agrees that no amounts shall be charged by it to, or withheld or set-off or otherwise recouped by it from, any Deposit Account of the Assignor or any amounts, investments, instruments or other Collateral from time to time on deposit therein; provided that the Deposit Account Bank may, however, from time to time debit the Deposit Accounts for any of its customary charges in maintaining the Deposit Accounts or for reimbursement for the reversal of any provisional credits granted by the Deposit Account Bank to any Deposit Account, to the extent, in each case, that the Assignor has not separately paid or reimbursed the Deposit Account Bank therefor.

5. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of Deposit Account Bank. The Deposit Account Bank represents and warrants to the Collateral Agent that:

(a) The Deposit Account Bank constitutes a “bank” (as defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC), that the jurisdiction (determined in accordance with Section 9-304 of the UCC) of the Deposit Account Bank for purposes of each Deposit Account maintained by the Assignor with the Deposit Account Bank shall be one or more States within the United States.

(b) The Deposit Account Bank shall not permit any Assignor to establish any demand, time, savings, passbook or other account with it which does not constitute a “deposit account” (as defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC).

(c) The account agreements between the Deposit Account Bank and the Assignor relating to the establishment and general operation of the Deposit Accounts provide, whether specifically or generally, that the laws of New York govern secured transactions relating to the Deposit Accounts and that the Deposit Account Bank’s “jurisdiction” for purposes of Section 9-304 of the UCC in respect of the Deposit Accounts is New York. The Deposit Account Bank will not, without the Collateral Agent’s prior written consent, amend any such account agreement so that the Deposit Account Bank’s jurisdiction for purposes of Section 9-304 of the UCC is other than a jurisdiction permitted pursuant to preceding clause (a). Upon request, the Deposit Account Bank will promptly furnish to the Collateral Agent a copy of the account agreement for each Deposit Account hereafter established by the Deposit Account Bank for the Assignor.

(d) The Deposit Account Bank has not entered and will not enter, into any agreement with any other Person by which the Deposit Account Bank is obligated to comply with instructions from such other Person as to the disposition of funds from any Deposit Account or other dealings with any Deposit Account or other of the Collateral.

(e) On the date hereof the Deposit Account Bank maintains no Deposit Accounts for the Assignor other than the Deposit Accounts specifically identified in Schedule I hereto.

(f) Any items or funds received by the Deposit Account Bank for the Assignor’s account will be credited to said Deposit Accounts specified in paragraph (e) above or

to any other Deposit Accounts hereafter established by the Deposit Account Bank for the Assignor in accordance with this Agreement.

(g) The Deposit Account Bank will promptly notify the Collateral Agent of each Deposit Account hereafter established by the Deposit Account Bank for the Assignor (which notice shall specify the account number of such Deposit Account and the location at which the Deposit Account is maintained), and each such new Deposit Account shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement in all respects.

6. Deposit Account Statements and Information. The Deposit Account Bank agrees, and is hereby authorized and instructed by the Assignor, to furnish to the Collateral Agent, at its address indicated below, copies of all account statements and other information relating to each Deposit Account that the Deposit Account Bank sends to the Assignor and to disclose to the Collateral Agent all information requested by the Collateral Agent regarding any Deposit Account.

7. Conflicting Agreements. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and any other agreement between the Deposit Account Bank and the Assignor, this Agreement shall control.

8. Merger or Consolidation of Deposit Account Bank. Without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, any bank into which the Deposit Account Bank may be merged or with which it may be consolidated, or any bank resulting from any merger to which the Deposit Account Bank shall be a party, shall be the successor of the Deposit Account Bank hereunder and shall be bound by all provisions hereof which are binding upon the Deposit Account Bank and shall be deemed to affirm as to itself all representations and warranties of the Deposit Account Bank contained herein.

12. Continuing Obligations.

The rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder and in respect of the Deposit Accounts and the other Collateral, and the obligations of the Assignor and Deposit Account Bank hereunder, shall continue in effect until the security interests of Collateral Agent in the Deposit Accounts and such other Collateral have been terminated and the Collateral Agent has notified the Deposit Account Bank of such termination in writing.

13. Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction; Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

Section 6.08 Assignors Remain Liable. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (a) each of the Assignors shall remain liable under the contracts and agreements included in the Collateral, including the Pledged Charters, Pledged Pooling Agreements and Pledged Management Agreements, to perform all of the duties and obligations thereunder to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed, (b) the exercise by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Creditor of any of the rights hereunder shall not release any Assignor from any of its duties or obligations under such contracts and agreements included in the Collateral, and (c) none of the Secured Creditors shall have any obligation or liability under such contracts and agreements included in the Collateral by reason of this Agreement, nor shall any of the Secured Creditors be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of any Assignor thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned hereunder. Until an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Credit Agreement, or other Credit Documents, the Assignors shall have the right to possession and enjoyment of the Collateral for the purpose of conducting their respective businesses, subject to and upon the terms hereof and of the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents.

ARTICLE VII

REMEDIES

Section 7.01 Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default:

(a) The Collateral Agent may, and, at the instruction of the Required Lenders, shall exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein, in the other Credit Documents, or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the Code or any other applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Assignor expressly agrees that, in any such event, the Collateral Agent without demand of performance or other demand, advertisement or notice of any kind to or upon any Assignor or any other Person (all and each of which demands and notices are hereby expressly waived to the maximum extent permitted by the Code or any other applicable law), may take immediate possession of all or any portion of the Collateral and (i) require the Assignors to, and each Assignor hereby agrees that it will at its own expense and upon request of the Collateral Agent forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by the Collateral Agent and make it available to the Collateral Agent at a location reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent, and (ii) without notice except as specified below, sell the Collateral or any part thereof, for cash, on credit, and/or upon such other terms as the Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable. Each Assignor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least 10 days’ notice to any of Assignor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification and specifically such notice shall constitute a reasonable “authenticated notification of disposition” within the meaning of Section 9-611 of the Code. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned.

(b) Any cash held by the Collateral Agent as Collateral and all cash proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied against the Secured Obligations in the order set forth in the Credit Agreement. In the event the proceeds of Collateral are insufficient to satisfy all of the Secured Obligations in full, each Assignor shall remain jointly and severally liable for any such deficiency.

(c) Each Assignor hereby acknowledges that the Secured Obligations arise out of commercial transactions, and agrees that if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing the Collateral Agent shall have the right to an immediate writ of possession without notice of a hearing. The Collateral Agent shall have the right to the appointment of a receiver for the properties and assets of each Assignor, and each Assignor hereby consents to such rights and such appointment and hereby waives any objection such Assignor may have thereto or the right to have a bond or other security posted by the Collateral Agent.

Section 7.02 Remedies Cumulative. Each and every right, power and remedy of the Assignee provided for in this Agreement or in any other Secured Debt Agreement, or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other such right, power or remedy. The exercise or beginning of the exercise by the Assignee or any other Secured Creditor of any one or more of the rights, powers or remedies provided for in this Agreement or any other Secured Debt Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by the Assignee or any other Secured Creditor of all such other rights, powers or remedies, and no failure or delay on the part of the Assignee or any other Secured Creditor to exercise any such right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof. No notice to or demand on any Assignor in any case shall entitle it to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of any of the rights of the Assignee or any other Secured Creditor to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. The Secured Creditors agree that this Agreement may be enforced only by the action of the Assignee, in each case acting upon the instructions of the Required Lenders and that no other Secured Creditor shall have any right individually to seek to enforce or to enforce this Agreement or to realize

upon the security to be granted hereby, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised by the Assignee for the benefit of the Secured Creditors upon the terms of this Agreement.

Section 7.03 Application of Proceeds. All monies collected by the Assignee upon any sale or other disposition of the Collateral of each Assignor, together with all other monies received by the Assignee hereunder (except to the extent released in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement or any other Credit Document), shall be applied to the payment of the Obligations in the manner set forth in Section 4.05 of the Credit Agreement.

ARTICLE VIII

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 8.01 Indemnity and Expenses. Each Assignor jointly and severally agrees (i) to indemnify and hold harmless the Assignee and each other Secured Creditor and their respective successors, assigns, employees, agents and affiliates (individually an “Indemnitee,” and collectively the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all claims, demands, losses, judgments and liabilities (including liabilities for penalties) of whatsoever kind or nature, and (ii) to reimburse each Indemnitee for all reasonable costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, in each case growing out of or resulting from this Agreement or the exercise by any Indemnitee of any right or remedy granted to it hereunder or under any other Secured Debt Agreement (but excluding any claims, demands, losses, judgments and liabilities or expenses to the extent incurred by reason of gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision)). In no event shall the Assignee be liable, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on its part, for any matter or thing in connection with this Agreement other than to account for monies actually received by it in accordance with the terms hereof. If and to the extent that the obligations of any Assignor under this Section 8.01 are unenforceable for any reason, such Assignor hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of such obligations which is permissible under applicable law.

Section 8.02 Addresses for Notices. Any notice, demand or other communication to be given under or for the purposes of this Agreement shall be made as provided in Section 11.03 of the Credit Agreement.

Section 8.03 Continuing Security Interest; Assignments under Credit Agreement. This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the Obligations have been paid in full in cash in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, (b) be binding upon each of the Assignors, and their respective successors and assigns, and (c) inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the Collateral Agent, and its successors, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (c), any Lender may, in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations under the Credit Agreement to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such the Lender herein or otherwise. Upon payment in full in cash of the Obligations in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, the Security Interest granted hereby shall terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to Assignors or any other Person entitled thereto, and the Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver to the Assignors, at the Assignors’ expense, all termination statements, releases and other documents (without recourse and without representation or warranty) which the Assignors shall reasonably, in each case, request to evidence such termination and authorize the filing of any such termination, release or other document executed and delivered by the Collateral Agent. No transfer or renewal, extension, assignment, or termination of this Agreement or of the Credit Agreement, any other Credit Document, or any other instrument or document executed and delivered by any Assignor to the Collateral Agent nor other loans

made by any Lender to the Borrower, nor the taking of further security, nor the retaking or re-delivery of the Collateral to the Assignors, or any of them, by the Collateral Agent, nor any other act of the Secured Creditors, or any of them, shall release any of the Assignors from any obligation, except a release or discharge executed in writing by the Collateral Agent in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement. The Collateral Agent shall not by any act, delay, omission or otherwise, be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder, unless such waiver is in writing and signed by the Collateral Agent and then only to the extent therein set forth. A waiver by the Collateral Agent of any right or remedy on any occasion shall not be construed as a bar to the exercise of any such right or remedy which the Collateral Agent would otherwise have had on any other occasion. Upon the consummation of any sale or other disposition of Collateral to any third party pursuant to a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement or the other Credit Documents, the Security Interest granted hereby with respect to such Collateral shall terminate (but shall attach to the proceeds or products thereof) and the Collateral Agent shall, at the reasonable request and at the expense of the applicable Assignor, provide evidence (without recourse and without any representation or warranty) of such termination.

Section 8.04 Termination; Release. (a) After the Termination Date, this Agreement and the security interest created hereby shall automatically terminate (provided that all indemnities set forth herein including, without limitation, in Section 8.01 hereof shall survive any such termination), and the Assignee, at the request and expense of any Assignor, will as promptly as practicable execute and deliver to such Assignor a proper instrument or instruments acknowledging the satisfaction and termination of this Agreement, and will duly assign, transfer and deliver to such Assignor (without recourse and without any representation or warranty) such of the Collateral as has not theretofore been sold or otherwise applied or released pursuant to this Agreement or any other Credit Document, together with any monies at the time held by the Assignee or any of its sub-agents hereunder. As used in this Agreement, “Termination Date” shall mean the date upon which the Commitments under the Credit Agreement has been terminated and all Interest Rate Protection Agreements or Other Hedging Agreements applicable to Loans entered into with any Other Creditors have been terminated, no Note under the Credit Agreement is outstanding and all Loans thereunder have been repaid in full and all Obligations then due and payable have been paid in full.

(b) In the event that any part of the Collateral is sold in connection with a sale permitted by the Credit Agreement (other than a sale to any Assignor or any Subsidiary thereof) or is otherwise released with the consent of the Required Lenders and the proceeds of such sale or sales or from such release are applied in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, to the extent required to be so applied, the Assignee, at the request and expense of the respective Assignor, will duly assign, transfer and deliver to such Assignor (without recourse and without any representation or warranty) such of the Collateral (and releases therefor) as is then being (or has been) so sold or released and has not theretofore been released pursuant to this Agreement.

(c) At any time that a Assignor desires that the Assignee assign, transfer and deliver Collateral (and releases therefor) as provided in Section 8.04(a) or (b) hereof, it shall deliver to the Assignee a certificate signed by a principal executive officer of such Assignor stating that the release of the respective Collateral is permitted pursuant to such Section 8.04(a) or (b).

(d) The Assignee shall have no liability whatsoever to any other Secured Creditor as a result of any release of Collateral by it in accordance with this Section 8.04.

Section 8.05 Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND BE GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS

AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

EACH ASSIGNOR HEREBY FURTHER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH COURT LACKS PERSONAL JURISDICTION OVER SUCH ASSIGNOR, AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT BROUGHT IN ANY OF THE AFORESAID COURTS THAT ANY SUCH COURT LACKS PERSONAL JURISDICTION OVER SUCH ASSIGNOR. EACH ASSIGNOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVESANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY OF THE AFORESAID ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT TO WHICH SUCH ASSIGNOR IS A PARTY BROUGHT IN THE COURTS REFERRED TO IN THIS SECTION 8.05 AND HEREBY FURTHER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM IN ANY SUCH COURT THAT SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM.

Section 8.06 Additional Assignors. Pursuant to Section 7.11 of the Credit Agreement, certain new direct or indirect Subsidiaries (whether by acquisition, creation or “designation”) of any Assignor are required to enter into this Agreement by executing and delivering in favor of the Collateral Agent a Joinder Agreement. Upon the execution and delivery of a Joinder Agreement by each such new Subsidiary, such Subsidiary shall become an Assignor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as an Assignor herein. The execution and delivery of any instrument adding an additional Assignor as a party to this Agreement shall not require the consent of any Assignor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Assignor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Assignor hereunder.

Section 8.07 Miscellaneous.

(a) This Agreement is a Credit Document. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts each of which shall be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission (i.e. “PDF”) shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission also shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this Agreement but the failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of this Agreement.

(b) None of the terms and conditions of this Agreement may be changed, waived, modified or varied in any manner whatsoever except in writing duly signed by each Assignor party hereto and the Assignee (with the written consent of the Required Lenders).

(c) This Agreement is made with full recourse to the Assignors and pursuant to and upon all the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements on the part of the Assignors contained herein and in the other Secured Debt Agreements and otherwise in writing in connection herewith or therewith.

(d) Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof in that jurisdiction or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. Each provision of this Agreement shall be severable from every other provision of this Agreement for the purpose of determining the legal enforceability of any specific provision.

(e) Headings used in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be used in connection with the interpretation of any provision hereof. Unless the contrary is compelled by the context, everything contained in each Section applies equally to this entire Agreement.

(f) Neither this Agreement nor any uncertainty or ambiguity herein shall be construed against any Secured Creditor or any Assignor, whether under any rule of construction or otherwise. This Agreement has been reviewed by all parties and shall be construed and interpreted according to the ordinary meaning of the words used so as to accomplish fairly the purposes and intentions of all parties hereto.

Section, subsection, clause, schedule, and exhibit references herein are to this Agreement unless otherwise specified. Any reference in this Agreement or in any other Credit Document to any agreement, instrument, or document shall include all alterations, amendments, changes, extensions, modifications, renewals, replacements, substitutions, joinders, and supplements, thereto and thereof, as applicable (subject to any restrictions on such alterations, amendments, changes, extensions, modifications, renewals, replacements, substitutions, joinders, and supplements set forth herein). The words “asset” and “property” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect and to refer to any and all tangible and intangible assets and properties, including cash accounts and contract rights. Any reference herein or in any other Credit Document to the satisfaction, repayment or payment in full of the Obligations shall mean the repayment in full in cash of all Obligations other than unasserted contingent indemnification Obligations. Any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s successors and assigns.

(i) All of the schedules and exhibits attached to this Agreement shall be deemed incorporated herein by reference.

3.

5.

(k) to appoint all kinds of agents, whether to enforce or exercise any right under or in connection with the Assigned Agreement or for any other purpose;

(l) to take over or commence or defend (if necessary using the name of the Assignor) any claims or legal or arbitration proceedings relating to, or affecting, any Assigned Property which the Collateral Agent may think fit and to abandon, release or settle in any way any such claims or proceedings; and

(m) generally, to enter into any transaction or arrangement of any kind and to do anything in relation to any Assigned Property which the Collateral Agent may think fit.

8.3 Notice of sale of Assigned Property. The Assignor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten days’ notice to the Assignor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of the Assigned Property regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned.

No purchaser shall be bound to inquire whether notice has been given, or whether any default has occurred, or as to the propriety of the sale, or as to the application of the proceeds thereof. In case of any such sale, the Mortgagee, if it is the purchaser, shall be entitled, for the purpose of making settlement or payment for the property purchased, to use and apply the Indebtedness hereby incurred in order that there may be credited against the amount remaining due and unpaid thereon the sums payable out of the net proceeds of such sale to the Mortgagee after allowing for the costs and expense of sale and other charges; and thereupon such purchaser shall be credited, on account of such purchase price, with the net proceeds that shall have been so credited upon the Indebtedness hereby secured. At any such sale, the Mortgagee may bid for and purchase such property and upon compliance with the terms of sale may hold, retain and dispose of such property without further accountability therefor.

Section 3. Power of Attorney-Sale. The Mortgagee is hereby irrevocably appointed attorney-in-fact of the Shipowner to execute and deliver to any purchaser aforesaid, and is hereby vested with full power and authority to make, in the name and on behalf of the Shipowner, a good conveyance of the title to the Vessel so sold only after an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement has occurred and is continuing. Any person dealing with the Mortgagee or attorney-in-fact shall not be put on enquiry as to whether the power of attorney contained herein has become exercisable. In the event of any sale of the Vessel, under any power herein contained, the Shipowner will, if and when required by the Mortgagee, execute such form of conveyance of the Vessel as the Mortgagee may direct or approve.

Section 4. Power of Attorney-Collection. The Mortgagee is hereby irrevocably appointed attorney-in-fact of the Shipowner upon the happening of any event of default, in the name of the Shipowner to demand, collect, receive, compromise and xxx for, so far as may be permitted by law, all freight, hire, earnings, issues, revenues, income and profits of the Vessel and all amounts due from underwriters under any insurance thereon as payment of losses or as return premiums or otherwise, salvage awards and recoveries, recoveries in general average or otherwise, and all other sums due or to become due at the time of the happening of any event of default as defined in Section 1 of Article III hereof in respect of the Vessel, or in respect of any insurance thereon, from any person whomsoever, and to make, give and execute in the name of the Shipowner acquittances, receipts, releases or other discharges for the same, whether under seal or otherwise, and to endorse and accept in the name of the Shipowner all checks, notes, drafts, warrants, agreements and other instruments in writing with respect to the foregoing. Any person dealing with the Mortgagee or attorney-in-fact shall not be put on enquiry as to whether the Power of Attorney contained herein has become exercisable.

Section 5. Delivery of Vessel. Upon the security constituted by this Mortgage becoming enforceable pursuant to Section 1 of Article III, the Mortgagee shall (in addition to the powers described in Section 1 of Article III) become forthwith entitled (but not bound) to appoint, by an instrument in writing under its seal or under the hand of any director or officer or authorized signatory, a receiver and/or manager of the Vessel upon such terms as to

remuneration and otherwise as the Mortgagee shall deem fit with power from time to time to remove any receiver and appoint another in his stead and any receiver shall be the agent of the Shipowner (who shall be solely responsible for his acts and defaults and remuneration) and shall have all the powers conferred by law by way of addition to, but without limiting, those powers any receiver shall have all the powers and entitlements conferred on the Mortgagee by this Mortgage and generally shall be entitled to the same protection and to exercise the same powers and discretions as are granted to the Mortgagee under this Mortgage.

Section 6. Mortgagee to Discharge Liens. The Shipowner authorizes and empowers the Mortgagee or its appointees or any of them to appear, after an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement has occurred and is continuing, in the name of the Shipowner, its successors and assigns, in any court of any country or nation of the world where a suit is pending against the Vessel because of or on account of any alleged lien against the Vessel from which the Vessel has not been released and to take such proceedings as to them or any of them may seem proper towards the defense of such suit and the purchase or discharge of such lien, and all expenditures made or incurred by them or any of them for the purpose of such defense or purchase or discharge shall be a debt due from the Shipowner, its successors and assigns, to the Mortgagee, and shall be secured by the lien of this Mortgage in like manner and extent as if the amount and description thereof were written herein. Neither the Mortgagee nor any receiver shall be liable as Mortgagee in possession in respect of the Vessel to account or be liable for any loss upon realization or for any neglect or default of any nature whatsoever in connection therewith for which a Mortgagee in possession may be liable as such.

Section 7. Payment of Expenses. The Shipowner covenants that upon the happening of any one or more of the events of default, then, upon written demand of the Mortgagee, the Shipowner will pay to the Mortgagee the whole amount due and payable in respect of the Indebtedness hereby secured pursuant to the terms of the Subsidiary Guaranty; and in case the Shipowner shall fail to pay the same forthwith upon such demand, the Mortgagee shall be entitled to recover judgment for the whole amount so due and unpaid, together with such further amounts as shall be sufficient to cover the reasonable compensation of the Mortgagee or its agents, attorneys and counsel and any necessary advances, expenses and liabilities made or incurred by it or them or the Mortgagee hereunder. All moneys collected by the Mortgagee under this Section 7 shall be applied by the Mortgagee in accordance with the provisions of Section 11 of this Article III.

Section 8. Remedies Cumulative. Each and every power and remedy herein given to the Mortgagee shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other power and remedy herein given or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity, in admiralty or by statute, and each and every power and remedy whether herein given or otherwise existing may be exercised from time to time and as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by the Mortgagee, and the exercise or the beginning of the exercise of any power or remedy shall not be construed to be a waiver of the right to exercise at the same time or thereafter any other power or remedy. The Mortgagee shall not be required or bound to enforce any of its rights under any of the other Credit Documents, prior to enforcing its rights under this Mortgage. No delay or omission by the Mortgagee in the exercise of any right or power or in the pursuance of any remedy accruing upon any default as above defined shall impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be

a waiver of any such event of default or to be an acquiescence therein; nor shall the acceptance by the Mortgagee of any security or of any payment of or on account of the Indebtedness hereby secured maturing after any event of default or of any payment on account of any past default be construed to be a waiver of any right to exercise its remedies due to any future event of default or of any past event of default not completely cured thereby. No consent, waiver or approval of the Mortgagee shall be deemed to be effective unless in writing and duly signed by authorized signatories of the Mortgagee; any waiver by the Mortgagee of any of the terms of this Mortgage or any consent given under this Mortgage shall only be effective for the purpose and on the terms which it is given and shall be without prejudice to the right to give or withhold consent in relation to future matters (which are either the same or different).

Section 9. Cure of Defaults. If at any time after an event of default and prior to the actual sale of the Vessel by the Mortgagee or prior to any enforcement or foreclosure proceedings the Shipowner offers completely to cure all events of default and to pay all expenses, advances and damages to the Mortgagee consequent on such events of default, with interest at the interest rate set forth in Section 2.06(b) of the Credit Agreement, then the Mortgagee may, but shall not be obligated to, accept such offer and payment and restore the Shipowner to its former position, but such action, if taken, shall not affect any subsequent event of default or impair any rights consequent thereon.

Section 10. Discontinuance of Proceedings. In case the Mortgagee shall have proceeded to enforce any right, power or remedy under this Mortgage by foreclosure, entry or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Mortgagee, then and in every such case the Shipowner and the Mortgagee shall be restored to its former position and right hereunder with respect to the property subject or intended to be subject to this Mortgage, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Mortgagee shall continue as if no such proceedings had been taken.

Section 11. Application of Proceeds. After an event of default hereunder shall have occurred and be continuing, the proceeds of any sale of the Vessel and any and all other moneys received by the Mortgagee pursuant to or under the terms of this Mortgage or in any proceedings hereunder, the application of which has not elsewhere herein been specifically provided for, shall be applied in the manner specified in Section 4.05 of the Credit Agreement.

Section 12. Possession Until Default. Until one or more of the events of default hereinafter described shall happen, the Shipowner (a) shall be suffered and permitted to retain actual possession and use of the Vessel and (b) shall have the right, from time to time, in its discretion, and without application to the Mortgagee, and without obtaining a release thereof by the Mortgagee, to dispose of, free from the lien hereof, any boilers, engines, machinery, masts, spars, sails, rigging, boats, anchors, chains, tackle, apparel, furniture, fittings or equipment or any other appurtenances of the Vessel that are no longer useful, necessary, profitable or advantageous in the operation of the Vessel, first or simultaneously replacing the same by new boilers, engines, machinery, masts, spars, sails, rigging, boats, anchors, chains, tackle, apparel, furniture, fittings, equipment, or other appurtenances of substantially equal value to the Shipowner, which shall forthwith become subject to the lien of this Mortgage as a first priority mortgage thereon.

Section 13. Severability of Provisions, etc. (a) If any provision of this Mortgage should be deemed invalid or shall be deemed to affect adversely the preferred status of this Mortgage under any applicable law, such provision shall be void and of no effect and shall cease to be a part of this Mortgage without affecting the remaining provisions, which shall remain in full force and effect.

(b) In the event that the Subsidiaries Guaranty, this Mortgage, any of the other Credit Documents or any of the documents or instruments which may from time to time be delivered thereunder or hereunder or any provision thereof or hereof shall be deemed invalidated by present or future law of any nation or by decision of any court, this shall not affect the validity and/or enforceability of all or any other parts of the Subsidiaries Guaranty, this Mortgage, any of the other Credit Documents or such documents or instruments and, in any such case, the Shipowner covenants and agrees that, on demand, it will execute and deliver such other and further agreements and/or documents and/or instruments and do such things as the Mortgagee in its sole discretion may reasonably deem to be necessary to carry out the true intent of this Mortgage, the Subsidiaries Guaranty and the other Credit Documents.

(c) In the event that the title, or ownership of the Vessel shall be requisitioned, purchased or taken by any government of any country or any department, agency or representative thereof, pursuant to any present or future law, proclamation, decree order or otherwise, the lien of this Mortgage shall be deemed to attach to the claim for compensation therefor, and the compensation, purchase or other taking of such title or ownership is hereby agreed to be payable to the Mortgagee who shall be entitled to receive the same and shall apply it as provided in Section 11 of this Article III. In the event of any such requisition, purchase or taking, and the failure of the Mortgagee to receive proceeds as herein provided, the Shipowner shall promptly execute and deliver to the Mortgagee such documents, if any, as in the opinion of the Mortgagee may be necessary or useful to facilitate or expedite the collection by the Mortgagee of such part of the compensation, purchase price, reimbursement or award as is payable to it hereunder.

(d) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, it is intended that nothing herein shall waive the priority status of this Mortgage, and if any provision of this Mortgage or portion thereof shall be construed to waive the priority status of this Mortgage, then such provision to such extent shall be void and of no effect.

[FORM OF] SOLVENCY CERTIFICATE

I, the undersigned, the Chief Financial Officer of Gener8 Maritime, Inc. (the “Company”), do hereby certify in such capacity only and not in my individual capacity (and without personal liability) and on behalf of the Company that, based upon facts and circumstances as they exist on the date hereof (and disclaiming any responsibility for changes in such facts and circumstances after the date hereof):

1. This Certificate is furnished to the Facility Agent and each of the Lenders pursuant to Section 5.02(k) of the Credit Agreement, dated as of October 21, 2015, among the Company, Gener8 Maritime Subsidiary VII Inc., as borrower (the “Borrower”), the Lenders party thereto from time to time, and Citibank, N.A., New York Branch, as Facility Agent and as Collateral Agent under the Security Documents (such Credit Agreement, as in effect on the date of this Certificate, being herein called the “Credit Agreement”). Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used in this Certificate shall have the meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement.

2. For purposes of this Certificate, the terms below shall have the following definitions:

(a) “Fair Value”

The amount at which the assets, in their entirety, of each of the Company on a stand-alone basis, and the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, would change hands between a willing buyer and a willing seller, within a commercially reasonable period of time, each having reasonable knowledge of the relevant facts, with neither being under any compulsion to act.

(b) “Present Fair Salable Value”

The amount that could be obtained by an independent willing seller from an independent willing buyer if the assets of each of the Company on a stand-alone basis, and the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, are sold with reasonable promptness under normal selling conditions in a current market.

The Indebtedness incurred or to be incurred by the Company and its Subsidiaries under the Credit Documents and all other financing contemplated by the Credit Documents.

(d) “Stated Liabilities”

The recorded liabilities that would be recorded in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) of the Company on a stand-alone basis and of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole as of the date hereof, determined in accordance with GAAP consistently applied, together with the amount of all New Financing.

(e) “Identified Contingent Liabilities”

The maximum estimated amount of liabilities reasonably likely to result from pending litigation, asserted claims and assessments, guaranties, uninsured risks and other contingent liabilities of each of the Company on a stand-alone basis, and the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, as identified and explained in terms of their nature and estimated magnitude by responsible officers of the Company and its Subsidiaries or that have been identified as such by an officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

(f) “Will be able to pay its Stated Liabilities and Identified Contingent Liabilities, as they mature”

For the period from the date hereof through the stated maturity of all the New Financing, each of the Company on a stand-alone basis, and the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, will have sufficient assets and cash flow to pay its Stated Liabilities and Identified Contingent Liabilities as those liabilities mature or otherwise become payable.

(g) “Does not have Unreasonably Small Capital”

For the period from the date hereof through the stated maturity of all the New Financing, each of the Company on a stand-alone basis, and the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, after consummation of all Indebtedness being incurred or assumed and Liens created by the Company and its Subsidiaries in connection therewith, is a going concern and has sufficient capital to ensure that it will continue to be a going concern for such period.

3. For purposes of this Certificate, I, or other officers of the Company and its Subsidiaries under my direction and supervision, have performed the following procedures as of and for the periods set forth below.

(a) I have reviewed the financial statements referred to in Section 6.05 of the Credit Agreement.

(b) I have made inquiries of certain officials of the Company and its Subsidiaries who have responsibility for financial and accounting matters regarding the existence and amount of Identified Contingent Liabilities associated with the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

(c) I have knowledge of and have reviewed to my satisfaction the Credit Documents, and the respective Schedules and Exhibits thereto.

(d) With respect to Identified Contingent Liabilities, I:

(i) inquired of certain officials of the Company and its Subsidiaries who have responsibility for legal, financial and accounting matters as to the existence and estimated liability with respect to all contingent liabilities known to them; and

(ii) confirmed with officers of the Company and its Subsidiaries that, to the best of such officers’ knowledge, all appropriate items were included in Identified Contingent Liabilities and the amounts relating thereto were the maximum estimated amount of liabilities reasonably likely to result therefrom as of the date hereof.

(e) I have examined the Projections which have been delivered to the Lenders and considered the effect thereon of any changes since the date of the preparation thereof on the results projected therein. After such review, I hereby certify that in my opinion the Projections are reasonable and the Projections support the conclusions contained in paragraph 4 below.

(f) I have made inquiries of certain officers of the Company and its Subsidiaries who have responsibility for financial reporting and accounting matters regarding whether they were aware of any events or conditions that, as of the date hereof, would cause either the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole or the Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, in either case after giving effect to the incurrence of the New Financing, to (i) have assets with a Fair Value or Present Fair Salable Value that are less than the sum of Stated Liabilities and Identified Contingent Liabilities; (ii) have Unreasonably Small Capital; or (iii) not be able to pay its Stated Liabilities and Identified Contingent Liabilities as they mature or otherwise become payable.

4. Based on and subject to the foregoing, I, in my capacity as the chief financial officer of the Company only and not in my individual capacity (and without personal liability), hereby certify on behalf of the Company that, after giving effect to the incurrence of the New Financing, it is my informed opinion that (i) the Fair Value of the assets, of each of the Company (on a stand-alone basis) and the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, is greater than its or their Stated Liabilities and Identified Contingent Liabilities; (ii) the Present Fair Salable Value of the assets of each of the Company (on a stand-alone basis) and the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, is greater than its or their Stated Liabilities and Identified Contingent Liabilities; (iii) each of the Company (on a stand-alone basis) and the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, will be able to pay its Stated Liabilities and Identified Contingent Liabilities as they mature or otherwise become payable; and (iv) neither the Company (on a stand-alone basis) nor the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, has Unreasonably Small Capital.

FORM OF SUBORDINATION PROVISIONS

Section 1.01. Subordination of Liabilities. [Name of Payor] (the “Payor”), for itself, its successors and assigns, covenants and agrees, and each holder of the [note evidencing intercompany loans and advances permitted pursuant to Section 8.05(d) of the Credit Agreement (as defined below)](1) to which this Annex is attached (the “Intercompany Note”) by its acceptance thereof likewise covenants and agrees, that the payment of the principal of, interest on, and all other amounts owing in respect of, the Intercompany Note (the “Subordinated Indebtedness”) is hereby expressly subordinated, to the extent and in the manner set forth below, to the prior payment in full in cash of all Senior Indebtedness (as defined in Section 1.07 of this Annex ). The provisions of this Annex shall constitute a continuing offer to all persons or other entities who, in reliance upon such provisions, become holders of, or continue to hold, Senior Indebtedness, and such holders are made obligees hereunder the same as if their names were written herein as such, and they and/or each of them may proceed to enforce such provisions.

Section 1.02. Payor Not to Make Payments with Respect to Subordinated Indebtedness in Certain Circumstances. (a) Upon the maturity of any Senior Indebtedness (including interest thereon or fees or any other amounts owing in respect thereof), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, all Obligations (as defined in Section 1.07 of this Annex ) owing in respect of the Senior Indebtedness shall first be paid in full in cash in accordance with the terms thereof, before any payment of any kind or character, whether in cash, property, securities or otherwise, is made on account of the Subordinated Indebtedness.

(b) The Payor may not, directly or indirectly (and no person or other entity on behalf of the Payor may), make any payment of any Subordinated Indebtedness and may not acquire any Subordinated Indebtedness for cash or property until all Senior Indebtedness has been paid in full in cash if any Default (as defined in the Credit Agreement (as defined in Section 1.07 herein)) or Event of Default (as defined in the Credit Agreement) under the Credit Agreement (as defined in Section 1.07 of this Annex ) has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom. Each holder of the Subordinated Indebtedness hereby agrees that, so long as any such Default or Event of Default in respect of any issue of Senior Indebtedness has occurred and is continuing, it will not xxx for, or otherwise take any action to enforce the Payor’s obligations to pay, amounts owing in respect of the Subordinated Indebtedness. Each holder of the Intercompany Note understands and agrees that to the extent that clause (a) of this Section 1.02 or this clause (b) prohibits the payment of any Subordinated Indebtedness, such unpaid amount shall not constitute a payment default under the Intercompany Note and the holder(s) of the Intercompany Note may not xxx for, or otherwise take action to enforce the Payor’s obligation to pay such amount, provided that such unpaid amount shall remain an obligation of the Payor to the holder(s) of the Intercompany Note pursuant to the terms of the Intercompany Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred or

(1) Describe Indebtedness permitted pursuant to Section 8.05(d) of the Credit Agreement

(c) In the event that, notwithstanding the provisions of the preceding subsections (a) and (b) of this Section 1.02, the Payor (or any Person on behalf of the Payor) makes (or the holder(s) of the Intercompany Note receive(s)) any payment on account of the Subordinated Indebtedness at a time when payment is not permitted by said subsection (a) or (b), such payment shall be held by the holder(s) of the Intercompany Note, in trust for the benefit of, and shall be paid forthwith over and delivered to, the holders of Senior Indebtedness or their representative or the trustee under the indenture or other agreement pursuant to which any instruments evidencing any Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear (including by giving effect to any intercreditor or subordination arrangements among such holders), for application pro rata to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to pay all Senior Indebtedness in full in cash in accordance with the terms of such Senior Indebtedness, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of Senior Indebtedness.

Section 1.03. Subordination to Prior Payment of All Senior Indebtedness on Dissolution, Liquidation or Reorganization of Payor.

(a) the holders of all Senior Indebtedness shall first be entitled to receive payment in full in cash of all Senior Indebtedness in accordance with the terms thereof (including, without limitation, post-petition interest at the rate provided in the documentation with respect to the Senior Indebtedness, whether or not such post-petition interest is an allowed claim against the debtor in any bankruptcy or similar proceeding) before the holder(s) of the Intercompany Note is entitled to receive any payment of any kind or character on account of the Subordinated Indebtedness;

(b) any payment or distributions of assets of the Payor of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities to which the holder(s) of the Intercompany Note would be entitled except for the provisions of this Annex , shall be paid by the liquidating trustee or agent or other person making such payment or distribution, whether a trustee in bankruptcy, a receiver or liquidating trustee or other trustee or agent, directly to the holders of Senior Indebtedness or their representative or representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture under which any instruments evidencing any such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued as their respective interests may appear (including by giving effect to any intercreditor or subordination arrangements among such holders), to the extent necessary to make payment in full in cash of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness; and

(c) in the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 1.03, any payment or distribution of assets of the Payor of any kind or character, whether

in cash, property or securities, shall be received by the holder(s) of the Intercompany Note on account of Subordinated Indebtedness before all Senior Indebtedness is paid in full in cash in accordance with the terms thereof, such payment or distribution shall be received and held in trust for and shall be paid over to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid or their representative or representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture under which any instruments evidencing any of such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear (including by giving effect to any intercreditor or subordination arrangements among such holders) for application to the payment of such Senior Indebtedness until all such Senior Indebtedness shall have been paid in full in cash in accordance with the terms thereof, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness.

Section 1.04. Subrogation. Subject to the prior payment in full in cash of all Senior Indebtedness in accordance with the terms thereof, the rights of the holder(s) of the Intercompany Note shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders of Senior Indebtedness to receive payments or distributions of assets of the Payor applicable to the Senior Indebtedness until all amounts owing on the Intercompany Note shall be paid in full, and for the purpose of such subrogation no payments or distributions to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness by or on behalf of the Payor or by or on behalf of the holder(s) of the Intercompany Note by virtue of this Annex which otherwise would have been made to the holder(s) of the Intercompany Note shall, as between the Payor, its creditors other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness, and the holder of the Subordinated Indebtedness, be deemed to be payment by the Payor to or on account of the Senior Indebtedness, it being understood that the provisions of this Annex are and are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the holder(s) of the Subordinated Indebtedness, on the one hand, and the holders of the Senior Indebtedness, on the other hand.

Section 1.05. Obligation of the Payor Unconditional. Nothing contained in this Annex or in the Subordinated Indebtedness is intended to or shall impair, as between the Payor on the one hand and the holder(s) of the Subordinated Indebtedness on the other hand, the obligation of the Payor, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the holder(s) of the Subordinated Indebtedness the principal of and interest on the Subordinated Indebtedness as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms, or is intended to or shall affect the relative rights of the holder(s) of the Subordinated Indebtedness and creditors of the Payor other than the holders of the Senior Indebtedness, nor shall anything herein or therein prevent the holder of the Subordinated Indebtedness from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon an event of default under the Subordinated Indebtedness, subject to the provisions of this Annex and the rights, if any, under this Annex of the holders of Senior Indebtedness in respect of cash, property, or securities of the Payor received upon the exercise of any such remedy. Upon any distribution of assets of the Payor referred to in this Annex , the holder of the Subordinated Indebtedness shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction in which such dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization proceedings are pending, or a certificate of the liquidating trustee or agent or other person making any distribution to the holder of the Subordinated Indebtedness, for the purpose of ascertaining the persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of the Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness of the Payor, the

amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Annex .

Section 1.06. Subordination Rights Not Impaired by Acts or Omissions of Payor or Holders of Senior Indebtedness. No right of any present or future holders of any Senior Indebtedness to enforce subordination as herein provided shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Payor or by any act or failure to act in good faith by any such holder, or by any noncompliance by the Payor with the terms and provisions of the Subordinated Indebtedness, regardless of any knowledge thereof which any such holder may have or be otherwise charged with. The holders of the Senior Indebtedness may, without in any way affecting the obligations of the holder(s) of the Subordinated Indebtedness with respect hereto, at any time or from time to time and in their absolute discretion, change the manner, place or terms of payment of, change or extend the time of payment of, or renew, increase or otherwise alter, any Senior Indebtedness or amend, modify or supplement any agreement or instrument governing or evidencing such Senior Indebtedness or any other document referred to therein, or exercise or refrain from exercising any other of their rights under the Senior Indebtedness including, without limitation, the waiver of default thereunder and the release of any collateral securing such Senior Indebtedness, all without notice to or assent from the holder(s) of the Subordinated Indebtedness.

Section 1.07. Senior Indebtedness.
