“10. FUEL SURCHARGE     
  Effective as of July 1, 2004, a fuel surcharge (the “Fuel Surcharge”) shall be
charged by Owner to Charterer for transportation provided to Charterer. The Fuel
Surcharge shall be based on the actual gallons of diesel fuel consumed during
such transportation multiplied by the difference between (i) the Platt’s Gulf
Coast Waterborne Low average for No. 2 Heating Oil for 2003 and (ii) the Platt’s
Gulf Coast Waterborne Low average for No. 2 Heating Oil for the then current
month.”
