Interest-Rate Swaps

The Company has entered into interest rate swaps to effectively convert a portion of its debt from a floating to a fixed-rate basis. The swaps are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges.

The Company entered an interest rate swap contract for a notional amount of $25,776,443 in the first quarter of 2007. This contract matures in March 2010. Under this contract, exclusive of applicable margin, the Company will pay 4.90% fixed-rate interest and receive floating-rate interest amounts based on three-month LIBOR settings. The Company has four other interest rate swap contracts as follows:

|  |               |                                                                                                         |

|--|---------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|  | –  | Notional amount of $84,800,000 with a fixed interest rate of 5.24% and maturity in September 2009 |

|--|---------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|  | –  | Notional amount of $25,048,118 with a fixed interest rate of 4.74% and maturity in September 2011 |

The Company records the fair value of the interest rate swaps as an asset or liability on its balance sheet. The effective portion of the swap is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income. Accordingly, $4,820,257 and $2,936,804 have been recorded in Other Assets in the Company’s financial statements as of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively.

Foreign Currency Swaps

The Company has entered into foreign exchange swap transactions to hedge foreign currency risks on its capital asset transactions (vessel newbuildings). The swaps are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges. During the three-month period ended June 30, 2007, the Company swapped a total of 3.84 billion in Japanese yen currency exposure into the equivalent of $33,677,326. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2007, the Company swapped a total of 11.5 billion in Japanese yen currency exposure into the equivalent of $100,063,505. After giving effect to the deposits paid for the newbuildings, at June 30, 2007, the Company had outstanding foreign currency swap contracts for notional amounts aggregating 11.280 billion Japanese yen swapped into the equivalent of $104,259,998.

At December 31, 2006, the Company had outstanding foreign currency swap contracts for notional amounts aggregating 4.386 billion Japanese yen swapped into the equivalent of $42,310,465.

Vessel Technical Management Contracts

The Company has technical management agreements for each of its vessels with independent technical managers. The Company paid average monthly technical management fees of $8,875 and $8,895 per vessel during the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively.

Note 5.    Earnings Per Common Share

The computation of basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. In March 2006, the Company granted options to purchase 56,666 of the Company’s common shares under the 2005 Stock Incentive Plan. In January 2007, under the same plan, the Company granted options to purchase 537,334 of the Company’s common shares. Diluted net income per share gives effect to the aforementioned stock options using the treasury stock method.

Note 7.    Capital Stock

Common Shares

On January 16, 2007, the Company’s then principal shareholder, Eagle Venture LLC, sold 7,202,679 of the Company’s common shares in a secondary offering. The Company did not receive any proceeds from this offering.

On March 6, 2007, the Company sold 5,400,000 of the Company’s common shares at a price to the public of $18.95 per share raising gross proceeds of $102,330,000. On March 23, 2007, the Company raised an additional $7,841,870 in gross proceeds from the underwriter’s exercise of their over-allotment option for the sale of 413,819 of the Company’s common shares. The Company used the proceeds from the offering to fund a portion of the acquisition costs of three vessels, the SHRIKE, SKUA and KITTIWAKE, which the Company agreed to acquire in the first quarter and which were delivered in the second quarter.

The Company incurred fees and expenses of $3,186,989 relating to the sales of its common shares.

Dividends

The Company’s current policy is to declare quarterly dividends to shareholders in March, May, August and November. Payment of dividends is limited by the terms of certain agreements which the Company and its subsidiaries are party to. The Company’s revolving credit facility permits it to pay quarterly dividends in amounts up to its quarterly earnings before extraordinary or exceptional items, interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (Credit Agreement EBITDA), less the aggregate amount of interest incurred and net amounts payable under interest rate hedging agreements during the relevant period and an agreed upon reserve for dry-docking for the period, provided that there is not a default or breach of loan covenant under the credit facility and the payment of the dividends would not result in a default or breach of a loan covenant. Depending on market conditions in the dry bulk shipping industry and acquisition opportunities that may arise, the Company may be required to obtain additional debt or equity financing which could affect its dividend policy. However, any determination to pay dividends in the future will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend upon the Company’s results of operations, financial condition, capital restrictions, covenants and other factors deemed relevant by the Board of Directors.

On February 15, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a cash dividend for the fourth quarter of 2006 of $0.51 per share, based on 35,900,001 of the Company’s common shares outstanding, payable to all shareholders of record as of February 28, 2007. The aggregate amount of this cash dividend paid to the Company’s shareholders on March 2, 2007 was $18,309,000.

On April 18, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a cash dividend for the first quarter of 2007 of $0.50 per share, based on 41,713,820 of the Company’s common shares outstanding, payable to all shareholders of record as of April 30, 2007. The aggregate amount of this cash dividend paid to the Company’s shareholders on May 3, 2007 was $20,856,910.

Note 8.    2005 Stock Incentive Plan

The Company adopted the 2005 Stock Incentive Plan for the purpose of affording an incentive to eligible persons. The 2005 Stock Incentive Plan provides for the grant of equity-based awards, including stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock bonuses, dividend equivalents and other awards based on or relating to the Company’s common shares to eligible non-employee directors, selected officers and other employees and independent contractors. The plan is administered by a committee of the Company’s Board of Directors.

An aggregate of 2.6 million shares of the Company’s common stock has been authorized for issuance under the plan. On March 17, 2006, the Company granted options to purchase 56,666 of the Company’s common shares to its independent non-employee directors. These options vested and became exercisable on the grant date at an exercise price of $13.23 per share. On January 12, 2007, 

11

----

the Company granted options to purchase 13,334 of the Company’s common shares to its independent non-employee directors and 524,000 of the Company’s common shares to members of its management. The options have an exercise price of $17.80 per share and they vested and became exercisable for the non-employee directors on the grant date while the options for management vest and become exercisable over three years. All options expire ten years from the date of grant.

For purposes of determining compensation cost for the Company’s stock option plans using the fair value method of FAS 123(R), the fair value of the options granted was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions: risk free interest rate of 5%, dividend yield of 11%, expected stock price volatility factor of 0.45. For the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2007, the Company recorded non-cash compensation charges of $124,356 and $245,767, respectively, relating to the of these stock options.

Note 9.    Subsequent Events

Dividend

On July 18, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a cash dividend for the second quarter of 2007 of $0.47 per share, based on 41,713,820 of the Company’s common shares outstanding, payable to all shareholders of record as of August 1, 2007. The aggregate amount of this cash dividend paid to the Company’s shareholders on August 7, 2007 was $19,605,495.

Acquisition of Vessels

On July 24, 2007, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire 26 Supramax newbuilding vessels from an unrelated privately owned Greek shipping company for a total purchase price of approximately $1,100,000,000. The agreement includes consideration of $150,000,000 to purchase all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of 19 wholly owned subsidiaries of Kyrini Shipping Inc., a Liberian corporation whose primary assets consists of contracts for the construction of 18 Supramax drybulk vessels and options for the construction of a further 8 Supramax drybulk vessels which were exercised on August 1, 2007. The transaction also includes options for the construction of an additional 9 Supramax drybulk vessels. The closing of the transaction, which is expected to occur on or before August 14, 2007, is subject to closing conditions customary to a transaction of this type and size. Total payments for the 26 vessels under the construction contracts are approximately $944,000,000. The construction contracts call for the 26 vessels to be delivered between August 2008 and April 2012. To facilitate the closing of the transaction and acquire the rights to the newbuilding contracts, the Company will draw upon its revolving credit facility which has been temporarily increased to $550,000,000 specifically for this purpose. The Company intends to enter into a new proposed $1,600,000,000 revolving credit facility, which is subject to the negotiation of definitive documentation and the closing of the transaction.

| ITEM 2.  | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION |

The following is a discussion of the Company’s financial condition and results of operation for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006. This section should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report and the notes to those financial statements.

This discussion contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and are intended to be covered by the safe harbor provided for under these sections. These statements may include words such as ‘‘believe,’’ ‘‘estimate,’’ ‘‘project,’’ ‘‘intend,’’ ‘‘expect,’’ ‘‘plan,’’ ‘‘anticipate,’’ and similar expressions in connection with any discussion of the timing or nature of future operating or financial performance or other events. Forward looking statements reflect management’s current expectations and observations with respect to future events and financial performance. Where we express an expectation or belief as to future events or results, such expectation or belief is expressed in good faith and believed to have a reasonable basis. However, our forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors, which could cause actual results to differ materially from future results expressed, projected, or implied by those forward-looking statements. The principal factors that affect our financial position, results of operations and cash flows include, charter market rates, which have recently increased to historic highs, and periods of charter hire, vessel operating expenses and voyage costs, which are incurred primarily in U.S. dollars, depreciation expenses, which are a function of the cost of our vessels, significant vessel improvement costs and our vessels’ estimated useful lives, and financing costs related to our indebtedness. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward looking statements as a result of certain factors which could include the following: (i) changes in demand in the dry bulk market, including, without limitation, changes in production of, or demand for, commodities and bulk cargoes, generally or in particular regions; (ii) greater than anticipated levels of dry bulk vessel new building orders or lower than anticipated rates of dry bulk vessel scrapping; (iii) changes in rules and regulations applicable to the dry bulk industry, including, without limitation, legislation adopted by international bodies or organizations such as the International Maritime Organization and the European Union or by individual countries; (iv) actions taken by regulatory authorities; (v) changes in trading patterns significantly impacting overall dry bulk tonnage requirements; (vi) changes in the typical seasonal variations in dry bulk charter rates; (vii) changes in the cost of other modes of bulk commodity transportation; (viii) changes in general domestic and international political conditions; (ix) changes in the condition of the Company’s vessels or applicable maintenance or regulatory standards (which may affect, among other things, our anticipated dry docking costs); (x) and other factors listed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. This discussion also includes statistical data regarding world dry bulk fleet and orderbook and fleet age. We generated some of these data internally, and some were obtained from independent industry publications and reports that we believe to be reliable sources. We have not independently verified these data nor sought the consent of any organizations to refer to their reports in this annual report. We disclaim any intent or obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws.

Overview 

We are Eagle Bulk Shipping Inc., a Republic of Marshall Islands corporation headquartered in New York City. We are the largest U.S. based owner of Handymax dry bulk vessels. Handymax dry bulk vessels range in size from 35,000 to 60,000 deadweight tons, or dwt, and transport a broad range of major and minor bulk cargoes, including iron ore, coal, grain, cement and fertilizer, along worldwide shipping routes. As of June 30, 2007, we owned and operated a modern fleet of 18 Handymax dry bulk vessels. In addition to our operating fleet of 18 vessels, we have also entered into contracts for five newbuilding vessels under construction which are scheduled to be delivered to us between November 2008 through February 2010. These acquisitions will bring our total operating and newbuild fleet to 23 vessels.

13

----

We are focused on maintaining a high quality fleet that is concentrated primarily in one vessel type – Handymax dry bulk carriers and its sub-category of Supramax vessels which are Handymax vessels ranging in size from 50,000 to 60,000 dwt. Fifteen of the 18 vessels in our operating fleet at June 30, 2007, are classified as Supramax dry bulk vessels. These vessels have the cargo loading and unloading flexibility of on-board cranes while offering cargo carrying capacities approaching that of Panamax dry bulk vessels, which range in size from 60,000 to 100,000 dwt and must rely on port facilities to load and offload their cargoes. We believe that the cargo handling flexibility and cargo carrying capacity of the Supramax class vessels make them attractive to potential charterers. With the three new vessel acquisitions, we will have one of the youngest fleet with an average age of only 6 years combined with a carrying capacity of 915,502 compared to an average age for the world Handymax dry dulk fleet of over 15 years.

Each of our vessels is owned by us through a separate wholly owned Republic of Marshall Islands limited liability company.

|  | (2)  | our strategy is to charter our vessels primarily pursuant to one- to three-year time charters to allow us to take advantage of the stable cash flow and high utilization rates that are associated with medium to long-term time charters. Reliance on the spot market contributes to fluctuations in revenue, cash flow, and net income. On the other hand, time charters provide a shipping company with a predictable level of revenues. We have entered into time charters for all of our vessels which range in length from one to three years and provide for fixed semi-monthly payments in advance. This strategy is effective in strong and weak dry bulk markets, giving us security and predictability of cashflows when we look at the volatility of the shipping markets, |

|  |           |                                                                                                                                                                      |
|--|-----------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|  | (3)  | maintain high quality vessels and improve standards of operation through improved environmental procedures, crew training and maintenance and repair procedures, and |

|  |           |                                                                                                                                                            |

New Acquisitions

During the first quarter of 2007, we agreed to purchase three modern Supramax vessels, the SHRIKE, SKUA and KITTIWAKE, for a total contract price of $138,700,000. We took delivery of the SHRIKE on April 24, 2007, the SKUA on June 20, 2007 and the KITTIWAKE on June 27, 2007. Upon their delivery to us, these vessels immediately commenced time charters.

In the six months ended June 30, 2007, we have further expanded our newbuilding program by entering into three additional contracts with IHI Marine United Inc., a Japanese shipyard, for the construction of ‘Future-56’ class Supramax 56,000 deadweight ton vessels. In March 2007, we entered into two contracts with the shipyard for the construction of the CROWNED EAGLE and CRESTED EAGLE, which are expected to be delivered in November 2008 and February 2009, respectively. In April 2007, we entered into a contract with the shipyard for the construction of the STELLAR EAGLE, which is expected to be delivered in April 2009. The contract price for each vessel is 3.83 billion Japanese yen or approximately $33,355,000 after giving effect to currency hedges.

As of June 30, 2007, we have five 56,000 deadweight ton vessel newbuildings on order and we have placed deposits aggregating $62,912,092 towards the construction of these vessels. Of these deposits, $25,265,936 and $12,848,038 were placed during the first and second quarter of 2007, respectively.

Sale of Vessel

In February 2007, we sold the SHIKRA, a 1984-built Handymax vessel to an unrelated third party for $12,525,000. We recorded a gain on the sale of $872,568.

|  | •  | Technical management.    The technical manager performs day-to-day operations and maintenance of our vessels. |

Commercial and Strategic Management

We carry out the commercial and strategic management of our fleet through our wholly owned subsidiary, Eagle Shipping International (USA) LLC, a Republic of Marshall Islands limited liability company that maintains its principal executive offices in New York City. We currently have a total of twelve shore based personnel, including our senior management team and our office staff, who either directly or through this subsidiary, provides the following services:

•    commercial operations and technical supervision;    

•    safety monitoring;

----

•    vessel acquisition; and    

•    financial, accounting and information technology services.

Technical Management

The technical management of our fleet is provided by unaffiliated third party technical managers. Until recently, V.Ships, whom we believe is the world’s largest provider of independent ship management and related services, was the sole technical manager of our fleet. However, the recent growth in our fleet has provided us with an opportunity to bring in an additional manager and benchmark our vessel technical operations. We have therefore entered into agreements with Barbers International Ltd., a leading internationally recognized ship manager to technically manage some of our vessels. We review the performance of our ship managers on an ongoing basis and may add or change technical managers.

Our technical managers are paid a fixed management fee for each vessel in our operating fleet for the technical management services provided. For the three-month period ended June 30, 2007, the technical management fee averaged $8,875 per vessel per month compared to $8,583 per vessel per month in the corresponding period ended June 30, 2006. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2007, the technical management fee averaged $8,895 per vessel per month compared to $8,583 per vessel per month in the corresponding period ended June 30, 2006.

Value of Assets and Cash Requirements 

The replacement costs of comparable new vessels may be above or below the book value of our fleet. The market value of our fleet may be below book value when market conditions are weak and exceed book value when markets conditions are strong. In common with other shipowners, we may consider asset redeployment which at times may include the sale of vessels at less than their book value.

The Company’s results of operations and cash flow may be significantly affected by future charter markets.

Critical Accounting Policies

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our interim, unaudited, consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and the rules and regulations of the SEC which apply to interim financial statements. The preparation of those financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.

Critical accounting policies are those that reflect significant judgments of uncertainties and potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. As the discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our interim, unaudited, consolidated financial statements, they do not include all of the information on critical accounting policies normally included in consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, a detailed description of these critical accounting policies should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Reports on Form 10-K. There have been no material changes from the ‘‘Critical Accounting Policies’’ previously disclosed in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.

|  | •  | Ownership days:    We define ownership days as the aggregate number of days in a period during which each vessel in our fleet has been owned by us. Ownership days are an indicator of the size of our fleet over a period and affect both the amount of revenues and the amount of expenses that we record during a period. |

Our fleet size in 2007 has increased from that of 2006, resulting in an increase in Ownership days. During the three-month period ended June 30, 2007, we operated 18 vessels compared to 14 vessels in the corresponding quarter in 2006. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2007, we operated 18 vessels, net of the sale of the SHIKRA in the first quarter of 2007, compared to 14 vessels in the corresponding period in 2006.

|  |              |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 |

|  | •  | Available days:    We define available days as the number of our ownership days less the aggregate number of days that our vessels are off-hire due to vessel familiarization upon acquisition, scheduled repairs or repairs under guarantee, vessel upgrades or special surveys and the aggregate amount of time that we spend positioning our vessels. The shipping industry uses available days to measure the number of days in a period during which vessels should be capable of generating revenues. |

During the three-month period ended June 30, 2007, Available days increased due to larger fleet size compared to the corresponding quarter in 2006. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2007, Available days increased due to larger fleet size compared to the corresponding period in 2006. Available days were, however, impacted by one vessel entering drydock at the end of the first quarter of 2007 and time spent positioning the SHIKRA for sale in the first quarter. Available days in the corresponding period of 2006 were impacted by the drydocking of 3 vessels.

|  | •  | Operating days:    We define operating days as the number of our available days in a period less the aggregate number of days that our vessels are off-hire due to any reason, including unforeseen circumstances. The shipping industry uses operating days to measure the aggregate number of days in a period during which vessels actually generate revenues. |

|  |              |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         |

|  | •  | Fleet utilization:    We calculate fleet utilization by dividing the number of our operating days during a period by the number of our available days during the period. The shipping industry uses fleet utilization to measure a company’s efficiency in finding suitable employment for its vessels and minimizing the amount of days that its vessels are off-hire for reasons other than scheduled repairs or repairs under guarantee, vessel upgrades, special surveys or vessel positioning. Our fleet continues to perform at high utilization rates. |

Revenues

All our vessels are employed on time charters. Our time charter equivalent (‘‘TCE’’) rate is equal to the time charter rate. As is common in the shipping industry, we pay commissions ranging from 1.25% to 6.25% of the total daily charter hire rate of each charter to unaffiliated ship brokers and in-house brokers associated with the charterers, depending on the number of brokers involved with arranging the charter.

Net revenues for the three-month period ended June 30, 2007 of $28,338,047 included billed time charter revenues of $31,011,901, deductions for brokerage commissions of $1,593,854 and amortization

of net prepaid charter revenue of $1,080,000. Net revenues for the three-month period ended June 30, 2007 were 18% greater than net revenues for the three-month period ended June 30, 2006, primarily due to a larger fleet size as reflected by increased operating days. Net revenue for the three-month period ended June 30, 2006 of $24,105,383 included billed time charter revenues of $26,199,776, deductions for brokerage commissions of $1,320,894 and amortization of net prepaid charter revenue of $773,500.

Net revenues for the six-month period ended June 30, 2007 of $55,246,579 included billed time charter revenues of $60,488,275, deductions for brokerage commissions of $3,081,696 and amortization of net prepaid charter revenue of $2,160,000. Net revenues for the six-month period ended June 30, 2007 were 15% greater than net revenues for the six-month period ended June 30, 2006, primarily due to a larger fleet size as reflected by increased operating days. Net revenue for the six-month period ended June 30, 2006 of $47,895,435 included billed time charter revenues of $52,247,893, deductions for brokerage commissions of $2,641,958 and amortization of net prepaid charter revenue of $1,710,500.

Vessel Expenses

Vessel expenses for the three-month period ended June 30, 2007 were $6,856,581 compared to $4,919,422 in the three-month period ended June 30, 2006. The increase in vessel expense is attributable to a larger fleet size in operation for the second quarter of 2007 and increases in vessel crew and lubricants costs. Vessel expenses for the three-month period ended June 30, 2007 included $6,435,504 in vessel operating costs and $421,077 in technical management fees. For the three-month period ended June 30, 2006, vessel expenses included $4,584,922 in vessel operating costs and $334,500 in technical management fees.

Vessel expenses for the six-month period ended June 30, 2007 were $13,102,479 compared to $9,624,419 in the six-month period ended June 30, 2006. The increase in vessel expense is attributable to a larger fleet size in operation for the six-month period of 2007 and increases in vessel crew and lubricants costs. Vessel expenses for the six-month period ended June 30, 2007 included $12,271,965 in vessel operating costs and $830,514 in technical management fees. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2006, vessel expenses included $8,954,919 in vessel operating costs and $669,500 in technical management fees.

Vessel operating expenses include crew wages and related costs, the cost of insurance, expenses relating to repairs and maintenance, the cost of spares and consumable stores and related inventory, tonnage taxes, pre-operating costs associated with the delivery of acquired vessels including providing the newly acquired vessels with initial provisions and stores, and other miscellaneous expenses.

Our vessel expenses will increase with the enlargement of our fleet. Other factors beyond our control, some of which may affect the shipping industry in general, may also cause these expenses to increase, including, for instance, developments relating to market prices for crew, insurance and petroleum-based lubricants and supplies.

Depreciation and Amortization

The cost of our vessels is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the expected useful life of each vessel. Depreciation is based on the cost of the vessel less its estimated residual value. We estimate the useful life of our vessels to be 28 years from the date of initial delivery from the shipyard to the original owner. Furthermore, we estimate the residual values of our vessels to be $150 per lightweight ton, which we believe is common in the dry bulk shipping industry. Our depreciation charges will increase as our fleet is enlarged which will lead to an increase in ownership days.

For the three-month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, total depreciation and amortization expense were $6,046,953 and $4,937,661, respectively. Total depreciation and amortization expense for the three-month period ended June 30, 2007 includes $5,719,027 of vessel depreciation and $327,926 relating to the amortization of deferred drydocking costs. Comparable amounts the for three-month period ended June 30, 2006 were $4,749,665 of vessel depreciation and $187,996 of amortization of deferred drydocking costs.

For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, total depreciation and amortization expense were $11,837,584 and $9,757,243, respectively. Total depreciation and amortization expense for the six-month period ended June 30, 2007 includes $11,234,675 of vessel depreciation and $602,909 relating to the amortization of deferred drydocking costs. Comparable amounts for the six-month period ended June 30, 2006 were $9,447,136 of vessel depreciation and $310,107 of amortization of deferred drydocking costs.

Amortization of deferred financing costs is included in interest expense. These financing costs relate to costs associated with our revolving credit facility and these are amortized over the life of the facility. For the three-month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, the amortization of deferred financing costs was $59,772 and $33,275, respectively. For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, the amortization of deferred financing costs was $117,784 and $66,225, respectively.

General and Administrative Expenses

Our general and administrative expenses include onshore vessel administration related expenses such as legal and professional expenses and administrative and other expenses including payroll and expenses relating to our executive officers and office staff, office rent and expenses, directors fees, and directors and officers insurance.

General and administrative expenses for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 were $1,573,174 and $1,114,024, respectively. The increase in general and administrative expenses for the three-month period ended June 30, 2007 was attributable to expenses associated with a larger fleet.

General and administrative expenses for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 were $3,216,994 and $2,099,503, respectively. The increase in general and administrative expenses for the six-month period ended June 30, 2007 was attributable to expenses associated with a larger fleet. We expect general and administrative expenses to increase as we expand our fleet

Non-Cash Compensation Expense

For the three-month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, the Company recorded non-cash compensation charges of $124,356 and $1,938,970, respectively. The expense for the three-month period ended June 30, 2007 relates to the fair value of the stock options granted in January 2007 to certain directors of the Company and members of management under the 2005 Stock Incentive Plan. The expense for the three-month period ended June 30, 2006 relates to profits interests awarded to members of the Company’s management by the Company’s principal shareholder Eagle Ventures LLC.

For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, the Company recorded non-cash compensation charges of $3,383,579 and $2,691,656, respectively. The expense for the six-month period ended June 30, 2007 includes $245,767 which relates to the stock options granted in January 2007 to members of management under the 2005 Stock Incentive Plan. The expense for the six-month period ended June 30, 2006 includes $2,644,623 in non-cash, non-dilutive charges relating to profits interests awarded to members of the Company’s management by the Company’s former principal shareholder Eagle Ventures LLC, and a non-cash amount of $47,033 which relates to the stock options granted to certain directors of the Company under the 2005 Stock Incentive Plan.

On January 16, 2007, Eagle Ventures LLC (‘‘Eagle Ventures’’) sold 7,202,679 shares of the Company’s common shares in a secondary offering. The Company did not receive any proceeds from this offering. Based on the discretion of the compensation committee of Eagle Ventures, exercised in accordance with the Fifth LLC Agreement, Eagle Ventures redeemed and retired the common interests held by certain members in full liquidation of the common interests held by such members. The remaining proceeds received by Eagle Ventures will be retained until a future distribution is determined to be made by the compensation committee of Eagle Ventures. Future distributions of the remaining cash proceeds, and the proceeds received from the sale of the 127,778 common shares held by Eagle Ventures, will be distributed to the remaining members of Eagle Ventures, including an

affiliate of Kelso and members of our management that hold profits interests, in accordance with the Fifth LLC Agreement, as modified by the permitted discretion of the compensation committee of Eagle Ventures reflected in an amendment to the Fifth LLC Agreement.

These non-cash, non-dilutive charges relate to profits interests awarded to members of the Company’s management by the Company’s former principal shareholder, Eagle Ventures. These profits interests diluted only the interests of the owners of Eagle Ventures, and did not dilute the direct holders of the Company’s common shares. The non-cash compensation charge was recorded as an expense over the estimated service period in accordance with SFAS No. 123(R). The non-cash compensation charges were based on the fair value of the profits interests which were ‘‘marked to market’’ at the end of each reporting period. The impact of any changes in the estimated fair value of the profits interests were recorded as a change in estimate cumulative to the date of change. The expense relating to the profits interest is now fixed. There will be no charges in future periods. The Company’s Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2006 on Form 10-K includes a more detailed description of these profits interests.

Interest and Finance Costs

During the three-month period ended June 30, 2007, we borrowed a total of $36,752,038 from our $500,000,000 revolving credit facility. Of these borrowings, $12,848,038 was used to fund the deposit for one newbuilding vessel which was contracted for construction during the period, and $23,904,000 was used to partly fund the purchase of the three vessels, the SHRIKE, SKUA and KITTIWAKE, which we agreed to acquire in the first quarter of 2007 and which were delivered in the second quarter of 2007.

During the six-month period ended June 30, 2007, we borrowed a total of $74,841,779 from our $500,000,000 revolving credit facility. Of these borrowings, $38,497,779 was used to fund the deposits and part of the capitalized financing costs for the three newbuilding vessels which were contracted for construction during the period, and $36,344,000 was used to partly fund the purchase price of the three vessels mentioned above. We also used $12,440,000 from the gross proceeds of the sale of the SHIKRA to repay borrowings from the revolving credit facility.

At June 30, 2007, our debt consisted of $302,376,599 in borrowings under the revolving credit facility. These borrowings consisted of $238,704,000 for the 18 vessels in operation and $63,672,599 to fund the deposits and capitalized interest on our five newbuilding vessels. Interest expense on the debt borrowed to fund the deposits for the newbuilding vessels is capitalized (see below).

The facility bears interest at the rate of 0.75% to 0.85% over LIBOR, depending upon the amount of debt drawn as a percentage of the value of the Company’s vessels. We also pay on a quarterly basis a commitment fee of 0.25% per annum on the undrawn amount of the facility.

For the three-month period ended June 30, 2007, interest rates applicable on our debt ranged from 4.97% to 6.09%, including the applicable margin. The weighted average effective interest rate was 5.48%. For the three-month period ended June 30, 2006, interest rates applicable on our debt ranged from 5.17% to 6.29%, including the applicable margin. The weighted average effective interest rate was 5.30%.

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2007, interest rates applicable on our debt ranged from 4.97% to 6.09%, including the applicable margin. The weighted average effective interest rate was 5.47%. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2006, interest rates applicable on our debt ranged from 5.17% to 6.29%, including the applicable margin. The weighted average effective interest rate was 5.28%.

Capitalized Interest

For the three-month period ended June 30, 2007, interest expense on the debt borrowed to fund the deposits for the newbuilding vessels amounted to $847,623 ($811,489 in interest and $36,134 in amortization of financing expenses) and this amount has been capitalized as part of the cost of the newbuilding vessels and is included in Advances for Vessel Construction in the financial statements as of June 30, 2007.

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2007, interest expense on the debt borrowed to fund the deposits for the newbuilding vessels amounted to $1,356,674 ($1,284,803 in interest and $71,871 in amortization of financing expenses) and this amount has been capitalized as part of the cost of the newbuilding vessels and is included in Advances for Vessel Construction in the financial statements as of June 30, 2007.

Interest Rate Swaps

We have entered into interest rate swaps to effectively convert a portion of its debt from a floating to a fixed-rate basis. The swaps are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges.

During the first six months ended June 30, 2007, we entered into an interest rate swap contract for a notional amount of $25,776,443. This contract matures in March 2010. On this contract, exclusive of applicable margin, the Company will pay 4.90% fixed-rate interest and receive floating-rate interest amounts based on three-month LIBOR settings. We have four other interest rate swap contracts as follows:

|  |               |                                                                                                         |
|--|---------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|  | –  | Notional amount of $100,000,000 with a fixed interest rate of 4.22% and maturity in September 2010 |

|  |               |                                                                                                        |
|--|---------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|  | –  | Notional amount of $30,000,000 with a fixed interest rate of 4.54% and maturity in September 2010 |

|  |               |                                                                                                        |
|--|---------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|  | –  | Notional amount of $84,800,000 with a fixed interest rate of 5.24% and maturity in September 2009 |

|  |               |                                                                                                        |
|--|---------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|  | –  | Notional amount of $25,048,118 with a fixed interest rate of 4.74% and maturity in September 2011 |

We record the fair value of the interest rate swaps as an asset or liability on the balance sheet. The effective portion of the swap is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income. Accordingly, $4,820,257 and $2,936,804 have been recorded in Other Assets in the financial statements as of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively.

Subsequent to the quarter ended June 30, 2007, we entered into an interest rate swap contract for a notional amount of $36,752,038. This contract matures in August 2012. Under this contract, exclusive of applicable margin, the Company will pay 5.225% fixed-rate interest and receive floating-rate interest amounts based on three-month LIBOR settings.

Foreign Currency Swaps

The shipping industry’s functional currency is the U.S. dollar. All our revenues and the majority of our operating expenses and the entirety of our management expenses are in U.S. dollars. 

22

----

Therefore, we do not use or intend to use financial derivatives to mitigate the risk of exchange rate fluctuations for our revenues and expenses.

However, we have entered into foreign exchange swap transactions to hedge foreign currency risks on our capital asset transactions (vessel newbuildings). The swaps are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges.

During the three-month period ended June 30, 2007, the Company swapped a total of 3.84 billion in Japanese yen currency exposure into the equivalent of $33,677,326. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2007, the Company swapped a total of 11.5 billion in Japanese yen currency exposure into the equivalent of $100,063,505. After giving effect to the deposits paid for the newbuildings, at June 30, 2007, the Company had outstanding foreign currency swap contracts for notional amounts aggregating 11.280 billion Japanese yen swapped into the equivalent of $104,259,998.

At December 31, 2006, the Company had outstanding foreign currency swap contracts for notional amounts aggregating 4.386 billion Japanese yen swapped into the equivalent of $42,310,465.

We record the fair value of the currency swaps as an asset or liability in our financial statements. The effective portion of the swap is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income. Accordingly, an amount of $4,692,967 and $359,180 have been recorded in Other Liabilities in the accompanying financial statements as of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively.

Gain on Sale of Vessel

On February 27, 2007, we sold the SHIKRA, a 1984-built Handymax vessel, to an unrelated third party for $12,525,000. We incurred total expenses of $513,518 relating to the sale. We recorded a gain on the sale of $872,568.

EBITDA

EBITDA represents operating earnings before extraordinary items, depreciation and amortization, interest expense, and income taxes, if any. EBITDA is included because it is used by certain investors to measure a company’s financial performance. EBITDA is not an item recognized by GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for net income, cash flow from operating activities and other operations or cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States or as a measure of profitability or liquidity. EBITDA is presented to provide additional information with respect to the Company’s ability to satisfy its obligations including debt service, capital expenditures, and working capital requirements. While EBITDA is frequently used as a measure of operating results and the ability to meet debt service requirements, the definition of EBITDA used here may not be comparable to that used by other companies due to differences in methods of calculation.

Our revolving credit facility permits us to pay dividends in amounts up to our earnings before extraordinary or exceptional items, interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (Credit Agreement EBITDA), less the aggregate amount of interest incurred and net amounts payable under interest rate hedging agreements during the relevant period and an agreed upon reserve for dry-docking. Therefore, we believe that this non-GAAP measure is important for our investors as it reflects our ability to pay dividends. The following table is a reconciliation of net income, as reflected in the consolidated statements of operations, to the Credit Agreement EBITDA:

Effects of Inflation 

We do not believe that inflation has had or is likely, in the foreseeable future, to have a significant impact on vessel operating expenses, drydocking expenses or general and administrative expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net cash provided by operating activities during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 was $37,606,769 and $32,993,258, respectively. The increase was primarily due to cash generated from the operation of the fleet for 2,822 operating days in the six-month period ended June 30, 2007 compared to 2,297 operating days during the same period in 2006.

Net cash used in investing activities during the six-month period ended June 30, 2007, was $166,314,920. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2007, we purchased three modern Supramax vessels, the SHRIKE, SKUA and KITTIWAKE, for a total contract price of $138,700,000. We also incurred associated costs of $103,974 relating to these vessel acquisitions. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2007, for our newbuilding program, we placed deposits in Japanese yen of the equivalent of $38,113,974 for three 56,000 deadweight ton vessels, the CROWNED EAGLE, CRESTED EAGLE and STELLAR EAGLE, which are to be constructed and delivered in November 2008, February 2009 and April 2009, respectively. These deposits are in addition to the deposits of $24,798,118 that were placed for the GOLDEN EAGLE and IMPERIAL EAGLE in 2006. We have also incurred associated capitalized interest costs of $1,356,674and capitalized legal, insurance and technical supervision costs of $123,651. On February 12, 2007, we sold the SHIKRA, a 1984-built Handymax vessel, to an unrelated third party for $12,525,000 and we incurred total expenses of $513,518 relating to the sale.

Net cash provided by financing activities during the six-month period ended June 30, 2007 was $129,312,075. In the six-month period ended June 30, 2007, we received $110,171,870 in gross proceeds from the sale of common shares of the Company and we paid costs of $3,186,989 associated with the sale. We borrowed $74,841,779 from our revolving credit facility, of which amount $38,497,779 was used to fund the deposits for the three newbuilding vessels which were contracted for construction during the period and part of the capitalized financing costs for the newbuilding vessels on order, and $36,344,000 was used to partly fund the deposits for the three vessels which we agreed to acquire in the period. We used $12,440,000 from the gross proceeds of the sale of the SHIKRA to repay borrowings from the revolving credit facility. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2007, we paid $39,165,910 in dividends. Net cash provided by financing activities during the six-month period ended June 30, 2006 was $39,927,970 as the Company borrowed $42,400,000 from its revolving credit facility, raised $33,000,000 from a private placement of common shares of the Company and paid $35,470,500 in dividends.

----

As of June 30, 2007, our cash balance was $22,879,415 compared to a cash balance of $22,275,491 at December 31, 2006. In addition, $7,200,000 in cash deposits are maintained with our lender for loan compliance purposes and this amount is recorded in Restricted Cash in our financial statements as of June 30, 2007. The cash deposit amount at the end of December 31, 2006 was $6,400,000. Also recorded in Restricted Cash is an amount of $124,616 which is collateralizing a letter of credit relating to our office lease.

At June 30, 2007, we had a remaining undrawn capacity of $197,623,401 available to borrow for future acquisitions of dry bulk vessels under our $500,000,000 revolving credit facility. The facility also provides us with the ability to borrow up to $15,000,000 for working capital purposes. (See section entitled ‘‘Revolving Credit Facility’’ for a description of the facility).

We anticipate that our current financial resources, together with cash generated from operations and, if necessary, borrowings under our revolving credit facility will be sufficient to fund the operations of our fleet, including our working capital requirements, for at least the next 12 months. We were in compliance with all of the covenants contained in our debt agreements as of June 30, 2007.

On July 24, 2007, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire 26 Supramax newbuilding vessels from an unrelated privately owned Greek shipping company for a total purchase price of approximately $1,100,000,000. The agreement includes consideration of $150,000,000 to purchase all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of 19 wholly owned subsidiaries of Kyrini Shipping Inc., a Liberian corporation whose primary assets consists of contracts for the construction of 18 Supramax drybulk vessels and options for the construction of a further 8 Supramax drybulk vessels which were exercised on August 1, 2007. The transaction also includes options for the construction of an additional 9 Supramax drybulk vessels. The closing of the transaction, which is expected to occur on or before August 14, 2007, is subject to closing conditions customary to a transaction of this type and size. Total payments for the 26 vessels under the construction contracts are approximately $944,000,000. The construction contracts call for the 26 vessels to be delivered between August 2008 and April 2012. To facilitate the closing of the transaction and acquire the rights to the newbuilding contracts, the Company will draw upon its revolving credit facility which has been temporarily increased to $550,000,000 specifically for this purpose. The Company intends to enter into a new proposed $1,600,000,000 revolving credit facility, which is subject to the negotiation of definitive documentation and the closing of the transaction.

Dividends

Our policy is to declare quarterly dividends to stockholders in March, May, August and November in amounts that are substantially equal to our available cash from operations during the previous quarter less any cash reserves for drydocking and working capital.

Our revolving credit facility permits us to pay quarterly dividends in amounts up to our quarterly earnings before extraordinary or exceptional items, interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (Credit Agreement EBITDA), less the aggregate amount of interest incurred and net amounts payable under interest rate hedging agreements during the relevant period and an agreed upon reserve for drydocking for the period, provided that there is not a default or breach of loan covenant under the credit facility and the payment of the dividends would not result in a default or breach of a loan covenant. Depending on market conditions in the dry bulk shipping industry and acquisition opportunities that may arise, we may be required to obtain additional debt or equity financing which could affect our dividend policy.

On February 15, 2007, our Board of Directors declared a cash dividend for the fourth quarter of 2006 of $0.51 per share, based on 35,900,001 of the Company’s common shares outstanding, payable to all shareholders of record as of February 28, 2007. The aggregate amount of this cash dividend paid to our shareholders on March 2, 2007 was $18,309,000.

On April 18, 2007, our Board of Directors declared a cash dividend for the first quarter of 2007 of $0.50 per share based on 41,713,820 of the Company’s common shares outstanding, payable to all 

25

----

shareholders of record as of April 30, 2007. The aggregate amount of this cash dividend paid to our shareholders on May 3, 2007 was $20,856,909. Since we did not own the three vessels we agreed to acquire in the first quarter and did not receive the benefit of their revenues during the first quarter (the SHRIKE delivered on April 24, 2007 and SKUA and KITTIWAKE delivered in June 2007), we funded approximately $2,850,000 of this dividend from excess working capital in order to pay the indicated dividend of $0.50 per share.

On July 18, 2007, our Board of Directors declared a cash dividend for the second quarter of 2007 of $0.47 per share, based on 41,713,820 of the Company’s common shares outstanding, payable to all shareholders of record as of August 1, 2007. The aggregate amount of this cash dividend paid to the Company’s shareholders on August 7, 207 was $19,605,495.

Sale of Common Shares

On January 16, 2007, our then principal shareholder, Eagle Ventures LLC, sold 7,202,679 of the Company’s common shares from its holdings of the Company’s common stock in a secondary sale in a private placement. The Company did not receive any proceeds from this offering.

On March 6, 2007, we sold 5,400,000 of our common stock at a price to the public of $18.95 per share raising gross proceeds of $102,330,000. On March 23, 2007, we raised an additional $7,841,870 in gross proceeds from the underwriter’s exercise of their over-allotment option for the purchase of 413,819 of our common shares. We used the net proceeds from the offering to fund a portion of the acquisition costs of three vessels, the SHRIKE, SKUA and KITTIWAKE, which were delivered in the second quarter of 2007. We incurred fees and expenses of $3,186,989 relating to the sale of our common shares.

Revolving Credit Facility

In July 2005, we entered into a 10-year $330,000,000 revolving credit facility. As of December 31, 2005, the outstanding indebtedness under the revolving credit facility was $140,000,000. In July 2006, we amended and increased our initial revolving credit facility to $450,000,000 with a new term of ten years expiring in July 2016. In November 2006, we further enhanced our facility to $500,000,000 to facilitate our newbuilding program. The facility also provides us with the ability to borrow up to $15,000,000 for working capital purposes. There are no principal repayment obligations under the amended facility until July 2012. Over the remaining four years until maturity in July 2016, the facility will reduce in semi-annual amounts of $28,750,000 with a final reduction of $270,000,000 occurring simultaneously with the last semi-annual reduction. The Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 includes a more detailed description of the revolving credit facility.

At June 30, 2007, the Company’s debt consisted of $302,376,599 in borrowings under the $500,000,000 revolving credit facility. These borrowings consisted of $238,704,000 for the 18 vessels in operation and $63,672,599 to fund the deposits and capitalized interest on its five newbuilding vessels. At June 30, 2007, we had a remaining undrawn capacity of $197,623,401 available to borrow under the revolving credit facility for future acquisitions of dry bulk vessels.

On May 4, 2007, the Company’s sole lender agreed to provide an incremental commitment of up to $250,000,000, in addition to its existing $500,000,000 credit facility. The incremental commitment is subject to the same terms and conditions as the existing credit facility. We paid an arrangement fee of $50,000 to the lender in connection with the incremental commitment to the revolving credit facility. On July 24, 2007, the Company temporarily increased its revolving credit facility to $550,000,000 to facilitate the closing of the stock purchase transaction and acquire the rights to the newbuilding contracts described herein. The Company will incur an arrangement fee of $250,000 in connection with the increase of the facility.

Capital Expenditures

Our capital expenditures relate to the purchase of vessels and capital improvements to our vessels which are expected to enhance the revenue earning capabilities and safety of these vessels.

During the three-month period ended June 30, 2007, for our newbuilding program, we placed a deposit in Japanese yen of an equivalent of $12,848,038 for a 56,000 deadweight ton vessel, the STELLAR EAGLE, which is to be constructed and delivered in April 2009.

During the six-month period ended June 30, 2007, we acquired three Supramax vessels, the SHRIKE, SKUA and KITTIWAKE, for a total contract price of $138,700,000 and associated costs of $103,974. During the six-months period ended June 30, 2007, for our newbuilding program, we placed deposits in Japanese yen of the equivalent of $38,113,974 for three 56,000 deadweight ton vessels, the CROWNED EAGLE, CRESTED EAGLE and STELLAR EAGLE, which are to be constructed and delivered in November 2008, February 2009 and April 2009, respectively. These deposits are in addition to the $24,798,118 that was placed for the GOLDEN EAGLE and IMPERIAL EAGLE in 2006.

In addition to acquisitions that we may undertake in future periods, the Company’s other major capital expenditures include funding the Company’s maintenance program of regularly scheduled drydocking necessary to preserve the quality of our vessels as well as to comply with international shipping standards and environmental laws and regulations. Although the Company has some flexibility regarding the timing of its dry docking, the costs are relatively predictable. Management anticipates that vessels are to be drydocked every two and a half years. Funding of these requirements is anticipated to be met with cash from operations. We anticipate that this process of recertification will require us to reposition these vessels from a discharge port to shipyard facilities, which will reduce our available days and operating days during that period.

Drydocking costs incurred are amortized to expense on a straight-line basis over the period through the date the next drydocking for those vessels are scheduled to occur. For the three-month period ended June 30, 2007, three of our vessels passed drydock surveys. During the corresponding period in 2006 we did not drydock any vessels. For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, we spent $628,307 and $1,464,473, respectively on vessel drydockings. The following table represents certain information about the estimated costs for anticipated vessel drydockings in the next four quarters, along with the anticipated off-hire days:

Item 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

There have been no material changes from the ‘‘Interest Rate Risk’’ previously disclosed in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.

Currency and Exchange Rates

The shipping industry’s functional currency is the U.S. dollar. The Company generates all of its revenues in U.S. dollars. The majority of the Company’s operating expenses and the entirety of its management expenses are in U.S. dollars. The Company does not intend to use financial derivatives to mitigate the risk of exchange rate fluctuations for its revenues and expenses.

The Company has entered into foreign exchange swap transactions to hedge foreign currency risks on its capital asset transactions (vessel newbuildings). The swaps are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges. In 2006, the Company entered into foreign exchange swap transactions to hedge the Japanese yen exposure into US dollars for the purchase price in Japanese yen of two new-build vessels which are expected to be constructed and delivered to the Company in January 2010 and February 2010. After giving effect to the deposits paid on these newbuildings, at December 31, 2006, the Company had outstanding foreign currency swap contracts for notional amounts aggregating 4.386 billion Japanese yen swapped into the equivalent of $42,310,465.

During the three-month period ended June 30, 2007, the Company entered into foreign exchange swap transactions to hedge the Japanese yen exposure into US dollars for the purchase price in Japanese yen of a new-build vessel, the STELLAR EAGLE, which is expected to be delivered to the Company in April 2009. During this three-month period, the Company swapped a total of 3.84 billion in Japanese yen currency exposure into the equivalent of $33,677,326.

During the six-month period ended June 30, 2007, the Company entered into foreign exchange swap transactions to hedge the Japanese yen exposure into US dollars for the purchase price in Japanese yen of three new-build vessels, the CROWNED EAGLE, CRESTED EAGLE and STELLAR EAGLE, which are expected to be delivered to the Company in November 2008, February 2009 and April 2009, respectively. During this six-month period, the Company swapped a total of 11.5 billion in Japanese yen currency exposure into the equivalent of $100,063,505.

After giving effect to the deposits paid for the newbuildings, at June 30, 2007, the Company had outstanding foreign currency swap contracts for notional amounts aggregating 11.280 billion Japanese yen swapped into the equivalent of $104,259,998 which includes 4.386 billion Japanese yen swapped into the equivalent of $42,310,465 at December 31, 2006 for the GOLDEN EAGLE and IMPERIAL EAGLE.

----

The Company records the fair value of the currency swaps as an asset or liability in its financial statements. The effective portion of the swap is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income. Accordingly, an amount of $4,692,967 and $359,180 have been recorded in Other Liabilities in the accompanying financial statements as of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively.
