          unconditionally  pay such sum to the Beneficiary.

2         As a separate and independent  stipulation,  the Guarantor irrevocably
          and  unconditionally  agrees  that  if  any  purported  obligation  or
          liability of the  Charterer  which would have been the subject of this
          Guarantee  had it been  valid and  enforceable  is not or ceases to be
          valid or  enforceable  against the Charterer on any ground  whatsoever

          whether under the  Limitation  Acts or otherwise or any  disability or
          incapacity or any change in the  constitution  of the  Charterer)  the
          Guarantor  shall  nevertheless be liable to the Beneficiary in respect
          of that  purported  obligation  or liability as if the same were fully
          valid and enforceable  and the Guarantor were the principal  debtor in
          respect  thereof.  The Guarantor hereby agrees to keep the Beneficiary
          fully  indemnified  on demand against all damages,  losses,  costs and
          expenses  arising  from any  failure  of the  Charterer  to perform or
          discharge  any such  purported  obligation  or  liability  or from any
          invalidity  or  unenforceability  of  any  of  the  same  against  the
          Charterer.

3         The Guarantor's liability under this Guarantee shall not be discharged
          in whole or in part or  otherwise  be affected in any way by reason of
          (a) the Beneficiary  giving the Charterer time or any other concession
          or taking,  holding,  varying,  realising or not  enforcing  any other
          security for the liabilities of the Charterer  under the Charter,  (b)
          any legal limitation or incapacity relating to the Charterer,  (c) the

          discharge the Guarantor and any moneys  expressed to be payable by the
          Charterer  under the terms of the Charter which may not be recoverable
          from the  Charterer  for any such reason shall be  recoverable  by the
          Beneficiary from the Guarantor as principal debtor.

4         This Guarantee  shall expire upon  termination by effluxion of time of
          the Charter or otherwise in circumstances where all obligations of the
          Charterer shall have been irrevocably and  unconditionally  discharged
          in full.

5         The Beneficiary may enforce this Guarantee without first making demand

6         All payments by the Guarantor  hereunder shall be made without set-off
          or counterclaim and, subject to paragraph 7 hereof,  free and clear of

          of international bank transactions in the relevant currency) not later
          than 10am  (local time in the place of payment) on the due date to the
          account  of  the   Beneficiary   notified  to  the  Guarantor  by  the
          Beneficiary.

          Guarantee  includes  all present and future  taxes,  levies,  imposts,
          duties,  fees or charges of whatever  nature  together  with  interest
          thereon and  penalties in respect  thereof) from any payment due under
          this  Guarantee,  the sum due from the  Guarantor  in  respect of such
          payment  shall be  increased  to the extent  necessary to ensure that,
          after the making of such  deduction or  withholding,  the  Beneficiary
          receives on the due date for such payment (and retains,  free from any
          liability in respect of such deduction or withholding) a net sum equal
          to the sum  which it would  have  received  had no such  deduction  or
          withholding been required to be made and the Guarantor shall indemnify
          the  Beneficiary  against any losses or costs incurred by it by reason
          of any  failure  of the  Guarantor  to  make  any  such  deduction  or
          withholding  or by reason of any  increased  payment not being made on
          the due date for such payment. The Guarantor shall promptly deliver to
          the Beneficiary any receipts,  certificates or other proof  evidencing
          the  amounts (if any) paid or payable in respect of any  deduction  or
          withholding as aforesaid.

          judgment given or made in relation hereto has to be converted from the
          currency  (the "first  currency")  in which the same is payable  under
          this  Guarantee or under such order or judgment into another  currency
          (the  "second  currency")  for the  purpose  of (i) making or filing a
          claim or proof  against  the  Guarantor,  (ii)  obtaining  an order or
          judgment in any court or other  tribunal or (iii)  enforcing any order
          to judgment given or made in relation to this Guarantee, the Guarantor
          shall indemnify and hold harmless the Beneficiary from and against any
          loss  suffered as a result of any  difference  between (a) the rate of
          exchange used for such purpose to convert the sum in question from the
          first  currency into the second  currency and (b) the rate or rates of
          exchange  at which  the  Beneficiary  may in the  ordinary  course  of
          business  purchase the first  currency  with the second  currency upon
          receipt of a sum paid to it in  satisfaction,  in whole or in part, of
          any such  order,  judgment,  claim or proof.  Any  amount due from the
          Guarantor  under  this  clause 8 shall be due as a  separate  debt and
          shall not be affected by judgment  being  obtained  for any other sums
          due  under or in  respect  of this  Guarantee  and the  term  "rate of
          exchange"  includes  any  premium  and costs of  exchange  payable  in
          connection  with the  purchase of the first  currency  with the second
          currency.

          Guarantee are to be determined on a  consolidated  basis in respect of
          the Group and (except as items are  expressly  included or excluded in

          make such determinations  and/or calculations at any time when, and in
          relation to any period in relation to which,  the  Guarantor  shall be
          obliged to comply with each of the covenants out in paragraphs 10.2.1,
          10.2.4 and 10.2.5 without regard to when any such financial statements

          Beneficiary pursuant to paragraph 10.1.

10.2.7    For the purposes of this paragraph 10.2:

          Each of the Relevant  Ships shall,  for the purposes of this paragraph
          10, be valued in United  States  Dollars  as and when the  Beneficiary
          shall require. Each such valuation of a Relevant Ship shall be made by
          an independent firm of shipbrokers appointed by the Beneficiary.  Such
          valuation shall be made without,  unless required by the  Beneficiary,
          physical  inspection,  and on the basis of a sale for prompt  delivery
          for cash at arm's  length,  on normal  commercial  terms as  between a
          willing buyer and a wiling seller and without  taking into account the
          benefit of any charterparty or other employment of such Relevant Ship.
          The value of each of the Relevant Ships  determined in accordance with
          the  provisions  of this  paragraph  10.3  shall be  binding  upon the
          parties hereto for the purposes of calculating  the Total Market Value
          Adjusted Assets until such time as any further such  valuations  shall
          be obtained.

10.3.2    Information

          The  Guarantor   undertakes  to  the  Beneficiary  to  supply  to  the
          Beneficiary and to any such shipbroker such information concerning any
          Relevant Ship and its  condition as such  shipbrokers  may  reasonably
          require for the purpose of making any such valuation.

10.3.3    Costs

          All costs in connection with the  Beneficiary  obtaining any valuation
          of each of the Relevant Ships referred to in paragraph  10.3.1 of this
          Guarantee shall be borne by the Guarantor.

11        No failure or delay on the part of the  Beneficiary  to  exercise  any
          right,  power or remedy under this Guarantee shall operate as a waiver
          thereof,  nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Beneficiary,
          of any right,  power or remedy preclude any other or further  exercise
          thereof or the  exercise  of any other  right,  power or  remedy.  The
          remedies  provided  in  this  Guarantee  are  cumulative  and  are not
          exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

12        The  Guarantor  may  not  assign  any of  its  rights  or  obligations
          hereunder.  The Beneficiary may assign any of its rights  hereunder to
          Fortis  Bank  NV/SA of  Montagne  de Parc 3, 1000  Brussels,  Belgium,
          acting  through its Athens branch at 166 Syngrou Avenue 176 71 Athens,
          Greece (the "Agent")  (acting as security  agent and trustee on behalf
          of a syndicate of banks and other  ancillary  parties).  The Guarantor
          hereby  agrees that it will  promptly  execute an  acknowledgement  in
          favour  of the  Agent of any  notice  of  assignment  delivered  to it
          relating to any such assignment.

13        Every claim or notice under this Guarantee shall be in writing and may
          be given or made by post or fax, to the  Guarantor or the  Beneficiary
          at  their  respective  addresses  given  above or to  another  address
          notified by the Guarantor or the  Beneficiary (or its assignee) to the
          other under this Guarantee.  Every notice shall be deemed to have been
          received,  in the case of a fax at the time of despatch (provided that
          if the date of  despatch  is not a working  day in the  country of the
          addressee,  it shalt be deemed  received on the next working day), and
          in the case of a letter, when delivered.

14        (a) This  Guarantee  shall be governed by and  construed in accordance
          with English law.

          (b)  The Guarantor  agrees,  for the benefit of the Beneficiary,  that
               any legal action or  proceedings  arising out of or in connection
               with  this  Guarantee  may be  brought  in  English  courts.  The
               Guarantor   irrevocably  and   unconditionally   submits  to  the
               jurisdiction of such courts and irrevocably designates,  appoints
               and  empowers  Top  Tankers  (UK)  Limited  at present of 50 Park
               Street,  W1K 2JJ,  London,  England to receive  for it and on its
               behalf,  service or process  issued out of the English  courts in
               any such legal  action or  proceedings.  The  submission  to such
               jurisdiction  shall  not (and  shall not be  construed  so as to)
               limit the right of the  Beneficiary to take  proceedings  against
               the  Guarantor in any other court of competent  jurisdiction  nor
               shall the taking of proceedings in any one or more  jurisdictions
               preclude  the taking of  proceedings  in any other  jurisdiction,
               whether concurrently or not.

15        Other than with respect to the Beneficiary,  no term of this Guarantee
          shall  be  enforceable  pursuant  to the  Contracts  (Rights  of Third
          Parties) Act 1999 by a person who is not a party to this Guarantee.
