ADDITIONAL HIRE

SECTION 2.01. Payment of Additional Hire.  OIN hereby agrees to pay to the Company charter hire in addition to the Basic Hire payable under the Time Charter in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.  Any such additional charter hire is referred to herein as “Additional Hire.”  Any Additional Hire that is payable hereunder shall be paid quarterly in an amount equal to the “Additional Hire Payment Amount”, as that amount is calculated in accordance with Sections 4.02 and 4.03.  OIN shall pay to the Company the Additional Hire Payment Amount on the 35th day following the last day of such calendar quarter (the “Additional Hire Payment Date”); provided that if such date is not a Business Day, then the Additional Hire Payment Date shall be the next succeeding Business Day following such date. Such payments shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the wire transfer address of the Company.  All calculations necessary to determine the Additional Hire Payment Amount shall be made by OIN.  All references to “days”, “months”, “quarters” or other time

4

periods shall be interpreted to be references to such time periods or to any pro rata portion thereof, for purposes of the calculations set forth herein.

SECTION 2.02. Sample Calculations.  Schedules B-1 and B-2 set forth sample calculations that illustrate the calculations that are used to determine both the Additional Hire Payment Amount and the Spot Revenue.  These Schedules  shall be interpreted to clarify, but not contradict, the terms set forth in this Agreement.

SECTION 2.03. Offhire Adjustment.  (a)  Although the parties contemplate that the Vessels shall be employed in such a manner that there shall not be any discrepancy between off-hire under the Time Charters and any employment of the Vessels by the Charterers, in the event of any such discrepancy, the Aggregate Basic Hire Paid shall be subject to an Offhire Adjustment during any quarter in which any Vessel:

(i) was on-hire while it Operated in a Pool or under a subcharter for a greater period than it was on-hire under its Time Charter or

(ii) was on-hire under its Time Charter for a greater period than it was on-hire while it Operated in a Pool or under a subcharter.

(b) The Offhire Adjustment shall be calculated for each Vessel to which Section 2.03(a) applies as follows:

(i) in the case of a Vessel to which Section 2.03(a)(i) applies, its share of Aggregate Basic Hire Paid shall be deemed to be equal to the amount of Basic Hire actually paid with respect to the Vessel increased by an amount equal to:

(A) the number of days the Vessel was on-hire while it Operated in a Pool or on-hire under a sub time charter minus the number of days the Vessel was on-hire under its Time Charter times (B) the Basic Hire rate for that Vessel for the relevant time period.

(ii) in the case of a Vessel to which Section 2.03(a)(ii) applies, its share of the Aggregate Basic Hire Paid shall be deemed to be equal to the amount of Basic Hire actually paid with respect to the Vessel decreased by an amount equal to:

(A) the number of days the Vessel was on-hire under its Time Charter minus the number of days the Vessel was on-hire while it Operated in a Pool or on-hire under a sub time charter times (B) the Basic Hire rate for that Vessel for the relevant time period.

(c) For the avoidance of doubt, the Offhire Adjustment shall be used only for the purpose of determining the Additional Hire Payment Amount and shall not affect the payment of Basic Hire to the Owners under the Time Charters.

ARTICLE III

CALCULATION OF REVENUE CONTRIBUTION BY TYPE OF EMPLOYMENT

SECTION 3.01. Each calendar quarter, OIN shall determine Additional Hire by referring to the type of employment that each Vessel engaged in during the relevant time period:

(a) for the days during the quarter that a Vessel Operated in a Pool, if any, Pool Revenue shall be calculated for the quarter;

(b) for the days during the quarter that a Vessel operated outside of a Pool and was subchartered under a time charter, if any, Time Charter Revenue shall be calculated for the quarter; and

(c) for the days during the quarter that a Vessel was operated outside of a Pool and not subchartered under a time charter, if any, Spot Revenue shall be calculated for the quarter.

SECTION 3.02. Pool Revenue.

(a) As of the date hereof, each Vessel is being “Operated in a Pool,” meaning that the Vessel has been entered into a Pool and not withdrawn, regardless of whether the Vessel has been put off-hire by the Pool.  Schedule C sets forth a description of the method used by Tankers International Pool and Aframax International Pool in determining the amount of pool earnings that are allocated to vessels Operated in a Pool, and OIN represents and warrants the accuracy of the description in Schedule C as of the date hereof.  Promptly upon the occurrence of any event that would result in a material change to the description contained in Schedule C, or upon the entry of a Vessel into any Pool other than, or withdrawal from, Tankers International Pool or Aframax International Pool, OIN shall inform the Company of such change and shall provide an updated Schedule C.

(b) For any quarter during which a Vessel is Operated in a Pool for all of such quarter, Pool Revenue shall be equal to:

(i) the time charter equivalent revenue allocated to the Vessel by the manager of the Pool reduced by any administrative or other expenses allocated to the Vessel by the manager of the Pool, in each case for the calendar year to date ended on the last day of such quarter; less

(ii) the time charter equivalent revenue allocated to the Vessel by the manager of the Pool reduced by any administrative or other expenses allocated to the Vessel by the manager of the Pool, in each case for the

6

calendar year to date ended on the last day of the prior quarter, unless the quarter in question is the first quarter of the calendar year in which case there is no subtraction;

(iii) plus (or minus) any downward (or upward) net revenue adjustments subsequent to the Effective Date related to periods (x) prior to the Effective Date or (y) subsequent to the sale of the Vessel, as determined by the manager of the Pool, to reverse any adjustments in the net revenue allocated to the Vessel by the manager of the Pool that are not attributable to the time period after the Effective Date.

(c) For any quarter during which a vessel is Operated in a Pool for part but not all of such quarter, Pool Revenue shall be calculated on a monthly basis and shall be equal to the sum of Monthly Pool Revenue for each whole or partial month in such quarter in which a Vessel is Operated in a Pool.  “Monthly Pool Revenue” shall be equal to:

(i) the time charter equivalent revenue allocated to the Vessel by the manager of the Pool reduced by any administrative or other expenses allocated to the Vessel by the manager of the Pool, in each case for the calendar year to date ended on the last day of the month in question; less

(ii) the time charter equivalent revenue allocated to the Vessel by the manager of the Pool reduced by any administrative or other expenses allocated to the Vessel by the manager of the Pool, in each case for the calendar year to date ended on the last day of the immediately preceding month;

(iii) plus (or minus) any downward (or upward) net revenue adjustments subsequent to the Effective Date related to periods (x) prior to the Effective Date or (y) subsequent to the sale of the Vessel, as determined by the manager of the Pool, to reverse any adjustments in the net revenue allocated to the Vessel by the manager of the Pool that are not attributable to the time period after the Effective Date;

(iv) if the Vessel was in a Pool for only a portion of a month and the manager of the Pool allocates time charter equivalent revenue for the full month to the Vessel (as in the month in which the Effective Date occurs or the month in which a Transfer occurs), then the result is multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days the Vessel was on hire in the Pool in such month and the denominator of which is the number of days in such month; and

(v) if the vessel was in a Pool for only a portion of a month and the manager of the Pool allocates time charter equivalent revenue on a pro-rata

7

based on the number of days elapsed in the month, then the above Section 3.02(c)(iv) shall not apply.

SECTION 3.03. Time Charter Revenue.  For any quarter during which a Vessel is not Operated in a Pool and is subchartered by its Charterer under a time charter, Time Charter Revenue shall be calculated.  “Time Charter Revenue” shall be equal to the actual time charter revenue recorded by a Charterer in respect of a Vessel during such period, calculated in accordance with GAAP, less actual shipbroker commissions and commercial management fees incurred by such Charterer with respect to such time charters; provided that such shipbroker commissions shall not exceed 2.5% of the actual time charter revenue recorded by the Charterer in the applicable time period and such commercial management fees shall not exceed 1.25% of the actual time charter revenue recorded by such Charterer in the applicable time period.

SECTION 3.04. Spot Revenue.  For any quarter during which a Vessel (i) is not Operated in a Pool and (ii) is not subchartered by its Charterer under a time charter, Spot Revenue shall be calculated for that Vessel by reference to the number of days the Vessel was on-hire under its Time Charter.  “Spot Revenue” for each Vessel shall be equal to the Weighted Average TCE Rate multiplied by the number of days in the Spot Period for that Vessel.

(a) For purposes of determining the Spot Revenue, the following definitions shall be used:

(i) “Weighted Average TCE Rate” means:

(A) for the VLCCs, the sum of (x) the Average TCE Spot Rate for Route A for the Spot Period multiplied by 50%, (y) the Average TCE Spot Rate for Route B for the Spot Period multiplied by 46% and (z) the Average TCE Spot Rate for Route C for the Spot Period multiplied by 4%; and

(B) for the Aframaxes, the sum of (x) the Average TCE Spot Rate for Route D for the Spot Period multiplied by 50%, (y) the Average TCE Spot Rate for Route E for the Spot Period multiplied by 25% and (z) the Average TCE Spot Rate for Route F for the Spot Period multiplied by 25%.

(ii) “Spot Period” is the number of days in a quarter during which a Vessel is not Operated in a Pool, is not subchartered by its Charterer under a time charter and is on-hire under its Time Charter.

(b) If, in OIN’s reasonable opinion, it becomes impractical or dangerous for very large crude carriers or Aframaxes to operate on the Routes due to war, hostilities, warlike operations, civil war, civil commotion, revolution or terrorism (“Hostilities”), then OIN may request the approval of the Company, which may not be unreasonably withheld, to instruct the Broker Panel to select alternative notional routes that reasonably reflect realistic alternative routes, which shall be proposed by OIN to the Broker Panel, as substitutes for the Routes for the duration of such Hostilities;

(c) If a Route is substituted pursuant to clauses (a) or (b) above, or if in OIN’s reasonable opinion the bunkering ports for which bunker prices are used for the purpose of determining the Bunker Price cease to be representative of bunkering practice for a Route or Routes, the bunkering ports may, on the request of OIN, the approval of the Company for which may not be unreasonably withheld, be changed and appropriate weights assigned to reflect the changed circumstances.

(d) If the New Worldwide Tanker Nominal Freight Scale issued by the Worldscale Association ceases to be published, the Broker Panel shall use its best judgment in determining the nearest alternative method of assessing the market rates on the specified voyages.

(d) Any excess of Prior Additional Hire Payment Amount over Calculated Additional Hire for the Calculation Period ending on September 30, 2006 (“Year 1 Deficit Carryforward”) shall be carried forward for up to the following four fiscal quarters and serve to reduce, but not to below zero, the Additional Hire Payment Amount in each of those quarters, as set forth below.

SECTION 4.03. Additional Hire Calculations for Periods Subsequent to September 30, 2006.  For all periods following September 30, 2006, the Additional Hire Payment Amount shall be calculated following the end of each Calculation Period (as defined below) as follows:

15

(a) Each Calculation Period shall consist of the four consecutive calendar quarters ending on the last day of the calendar quarter for which the Additional Hire calculation is being made.

(b) For each Calculation Period, the Additional Hire Payment Amount shall equal the Calculated Additional Hire for that Calculation Period, minus the Additional Hire Payment Offset; provided that, if the deduction of the Additional Hire Payment Offset would result in a negative number, the Additional Hire Payment Amount shall be reduced by that portion of the Additional Hire Payment Offset that reduces the Additional Hire Payment Amount to zero.

(c) The following definitions shall apply to this Section 4.03 only:

(i) “Additional Hire Payment Offset” for the Calculation Period ending December 31, 2006, shall be equal to the Year 1 Deficit Carryforward.  For each Calculation Period thereafter ending on or prior to September 30, 2007, the Additional Hire Payment Offset shall equal the Year 1 Deficit Carryforward minus the cumulative amount of Additional Hire Payment Offsets previously used to reduce the Additional Hire Payment Amount.  The Additional Hire Payment Offset shall be zero for all Calculation Periods ending after September 30, 2007.

Notes to Schedule B-1

This sample calculation assumes that each Vessel Operates in a Pool for the entire time period covered and that no Offhire Adjustment applies.  This Schedule is for illustration purposes only.  See Schedule B-2 for a sample calculation of Spot Revenue.  If Spot Revenue or Time Charter Revenue were earned by a Vessel, the revenue would be included in the “Revenue” line for each Vessel.

1) The Basic Hire Rate (as defined in Clause 99 of each Time Charter) steps up on each anniversary of the Effective Date, so that each fourth fiscal quarter (ending on December 31) will have two Basic Hire Rates in effect.  For the purposes of this Exhibit, drydock off-hire periods occurring in such quarters containing a step-up in the Basic Hire Rate are assumed to take place in the latter portion of such quarter, reducing Basic Hire that would otherwise be earned at the higher rate.

2) Pool points are used in the determination of time charter equivalent revenue by the manager of the Pool and are shown here for illustration purposes only.  In this example, pool earnings are derived by multiplying pool points times the assumed earnings for a 100 point vessel.  The pool earnings shown on this Schedule are as per those in effect for the Vessels on the Effective Date as determined by the manager of the respective Pool.  Pool points are subject to change by the manager of the respective pool (on a semiannual basis for both Pools as of the Effective Date).  For purposes of this Schedule, Pool Revenue is equal to the Revenue line (as all Vessels are assumed to only Operate in Pools), which is equal to pool earnings times on-hire days, without adjustment.

3) For periods prior to September 30, 2006, the TCE Rate is shown on this Schedule, and is the same as “pool earnings.”  The TCE Rate is not a defined term in this Agreement.  For periods after September 30, 2006, the Rolling Average TCE Rate applies.  The Rolling Average TCE Rate for Pool Revenue is functionally equal to the weighted average of the TCE rates reported by the pool manager for the four quarters ending on the last day of such quarter.  In this Schedule, the Rolling Average TCE Rate is equal to the sum of Revenue for the previous four quarters divided by the sum of on-hire days.

4) For periods prior to September 30, 2006, TCE Revenue is shown on this Schedule, and is the same as “Revenue.”  TCE Revenue is not a defined term in this Agreement.  For periods after September 30, 2006, Rolling Average TCE Revenue applies and is obtained by multiplying the Rolling Average TCE Rate by the number of on-hire days in the Calculation Period for the Vessel.

5) Aggregate of revenue contributions is the sum of the TCE Revenue / Rolling Average TCE Revenue for all Vessels.

6) Aggregate TCE Revenue is calculated as:

a) for the each of the first four fiscal quarters (including stub first quarter), the cumulative amount of aggregate revenue contributions earned for the Calculation Period or

b) for each calendar quarter thereafter, the aggregate amount of revenue contributions earned for the current quarter.

 Aggregate Base Hire Paid is then calculated on the same basis from Basic Hire.

7) Calculated Additional Hire is calculated as 40% of any excess revenue (Aggregate TCE Revenue less Aggregate Base Hire Paid).

8) Additional Hire Payment Amount is calculated as:

a) for the each of the first four fiscal quarters (including stub first quarter), the excess, if any, of Calculated Additional Hire (which has been earned on a cumulative basis for the Calculation Period commencing on the Effective Date through the last day of the quarter in question), over Prior Additional Payment Amount, which is defined as the cumulative Additional Hire Payment Amount paid since the Effective Date.  Any excess of Prior Additional Payment Amount over Calculated Additional Hire existing as at September 30, 2006, which would result from no additional hire payment being made in respect of that quarter and possibly other preceding quarters, will create a deficit balance called Year 1 Deficit Carryforward that can be carried forward and drawn against in future quarters (through September 30, 2007) to reduce (in the form of an Additional Hire Payment Offset) the additional hire payments otherwise payable in respect of such quarters

b) for any calendar quarter thereafter, Calculated Additional Hire (which has been earned for the quarter in question on the basis of the four-quarter average TCE rates) as reduced, but not below zero, by any remaining balance in the Year 1 Deficit Carryforward which, on such reduction, shall be reduced by an equal amount.  Any Year 1 Deficit Carryforward existing as at September 30, 2007 after any Additional Hire Payment Offset is taken in respect of the quarter ending on such date will be cancelled at such time.

SCHEDULE C
Description of Pool Allocation

Calculation of Pool Earnings

Pool Earnings in respect of all pool vessels in any one pool year are equal to pool gross revenues, as described below, less pool expenses, as described below.

Pool gross revenues are comprised principally of:

(i) each pool vessel’s total voyage income (including without limitation freight and demurrage);

(ii) hire received for pool vessels fixed on time charters;

(ii) the pool share of any salvage money;

(iv) interest earned by the pool;

(v) insurance money paid out under policies taken out by the pool; and

(vi) all income of any  nature due to the pool arising out of the operation of or in any way connected to the pool vessels.

Any expenses payable by the charterer under a transportation contract or COA are treated as income and then deducted below as pool expenses.

Pool expenses are comprised principally of:

(i) each pool vessel’s total voyage expenses payable under the applicable transportation contract or COA including without limitation, agents, tugs, port expenses, wharfage, brokerage commissions, bunkers, canal fees and additional war risk premiums;

(ii) any liabilities or damages payable by the pool to any contractual party;

(iii) all other expenses or amounts payable by the pool in connection with the operation of the pool vessels and in connection with performing the business of the pool;

(iv) all costs in connection with the administration of the pool;

(v) all other costs relating to the pool;

(vi) claims relating to COAs where no vessels have been nominated; and

(vii) any claims or deductions (or any parts thereof) which cannot be deducted from a participant’s entitlement to hire.

How an individual Vessel Share is calculated

The time charter equivalent revenue allocated to each pool vessel is calculated as follows:

(A x B) / C

Where:

A = Pool Earnings for a particular month

B = Key Entitlement for the pool Vessel

C = the sum of Key Entitlements for all pool Vessels.

The “Key Entitlement” is the figure obtained by taking the pool points applicable to the pool Vessel in the month and multiplying it by the net number of days the pool Vessel was on hire to the pool in the month.
