                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                   FOR THE THREE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999
          (ALL TABULAR AMOUNTS ARE IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA)


NOTE 1--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     Business--OMI Corporation ("OMI" or the "Company"), is a bulk shipping
company incorporated in the Republic of the Marshall Islands, which provides
seaborne transportation services primarily of crude oil and refined petroleum
products. The Company is a successor to Universal Bulk Carriers, Inc. ("UBC"), a
Liberian corporation, which was a wholly-owned subsidiary of OMI Corp. until
June 17, 1998 at which date the Company was separated from OMI Corp. (renamed
Marine Transport Corporation "MTC") through a tax-free distribution
("Distribution") to OMI Corp.'s shareholders of one share of UBC common stock
for each share of OMI Corp. ("Old OMI") common stock. The Distribution separated
Old OMI into two publicly-owned companies. In connection with the Distribution,
the Company's common stock was recapitalized with 150,000,0000 shares authorized
(par value 50 cents), with 43,084,000 shares outstanding. This recapitalization
has been reflected for the earliest year presented. OMI Corporation operates
what was OMI Corp.'s foreign shipping businesses under the management of certain
officers formerly of Old OMI who moved to the new company and certain former
directors of Old OMI and additional new directors. The Company continues to
trade under the symbol "OMM" on the New York Stock Exchange.

     Basis of Presentation--The accompanying consolidated financial statements
reflect the results of operations, financial position, changes in stockholders'
equity and cash flows of OMI and subsidiaries.

     The financial statements have been prepared using the historical basis in
the assets and liabilities and the historical results of operations directly
attributable to OMI and all intercompany accounts and transactions between OMI
and its subsidiaries have been eliminated.

     The financial statements and computations of basic and diluted earnings per
share (See Note 3) have been presented giving effect to the Distribution as
though it occurred at the beginning of the earliest year presented.

     Reclassifications--Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1998 and
1997 financial statements to conform to the 1999 presentation.

     Principles of Consolidation--The consolidated financial statements include
all subsidiaries which are more than 50 percent owned by OMI. All significant
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

     Investments in joint ventures, in which the Company's interest is 50
percent or less and where it is deemed that the Company's ownership gives it
significant influence over operating and financial policies, are accounted for
by the equity method.

     Accounting Estimates--The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

     Operating Revenues and Expenses--Voyage revenues and expenses are
recognized on the percentage of completion method of accounting based on voyage
costs incurred to date as compared to estimated total voyage costs. Estimated
losses on voyages are provided for in full at the time such losses become
evident.

     Effective January 1, 1999, OMI changed its accounting policy on recognition
of voyage freight for vessels operating on voyage charters from load-to-load to
the discharge-to-discharge basis. Under this method, voyage revenue is
recognized evenly over the period from the departure of a vessel from its
original discharge port to departure from the next discharge port. Management
believes that the discharge-to-discharge method is preferable because (a) it is
the predominant method for shipowners, and (b) it eliminates the uncertainty
associated with the location of the next load port (See Note 7).

          (ALL TABULAR AMOUNTS ARE IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA)


NOTE 1--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

     Effective January 1, 1997, special survey and drydock expenses are
accounted for using the prepaid method. Under the prepaid method, expenses are
capitalized and amortized over the survey cycle, which is generally a two to
five year period. Prior to 1997, special survey and drydock expenses were
accrued and charged to operating expenses over the survey cycle. The accruals of
such expenses were based on management's best estimates of future costs and the
expected length of the survey cycle. However, the ultimate liability may have
been more or less than such estimates (See Note 8).

     Vessels, Construction in Progress and Other Property--Vessels and other
property are recorded at cost. Depreciation for financial reporting purposes is
provided principally on the straight-line method based on the estimated useful
lives of the assets up to the assets' estimated salvage value. The useful lives
of the vessels range from 20 to 25 years. Salvage value is based upon a vessel's
lightweight tonnage multiplied by a scrap rate.

     Interest costs incurred during the construction of vessels (until the
vessel is substantially complete and ready for its intended use) are
capitalized. The amount of interest capitalized was $1,384,000 in 1999,
$3,762,000 in 1998 and $2,207,000 in 1997.

     Other property and leasehold improvements are amortized on the
straight-line method over the terms of the lease or estimated useful lives of
the assets.

     Expenditures for maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are expensed.
Major replacements and renewals are capitalized. In the event that facts and
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a vessel may be impaired, an
evaluation of recoverability is performed. If an evaluation is required, the
estimated future undiscounted cash flows associated with the vessel are compared
to the vessel's carrying value to determine if a write down to fair value is
required.

     Goodwill--Goodwill, included in Other Assets and Deferred Charges,
recognized in business combinations accounted for as purchases, was $1,827,000
and $11,079,000 at December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively, and is being
amortized over the remaining lives of assets, which were acquired in such
combinations. During 1999, $8,600,000 of goodwill was charged to loss on
disposal/write down of assets for vessels sold (See Note 11) and for vessels to
be disposed of at December 31, 1999 (See Note 12). The carrying value of
goodwill is reviewed periodically based on the estimated future undiscounted
cash flows of the entity acquired over the remaining amortization period in
order to ensure that the carrying value of goodwill has not been impaired.

     Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share--Effective January 1, 1997, the Company
adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 ("SFAS 128")
"Earnings per Share" which was adopted for interim and annual reports. SFAS 128
specifies the computation, presentation, and disclosure requirements for
earnings per share ("EPS"). It replaces the presentation of primary and fully
diluted EPS with Basic and Diluted EPS. Basic EPS excludes the dilutive effect
of stock options. It is based upon the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that
would occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were
exercised or converted into common stock.

     Federal Income Taxes--Management estimated that the distribution of shares
to the shareholders of Old OMI would result in Federal income taxes becoming
payable by OMI Corporation of approximately $1,900,000 representing Federal
income taxes on previously excluded foreign ("Subpart F") income and on the
distribution of shares of non-United States shareholders. As OMI will not be
subject to any additional income taxes (other than adjustments to previously
reported amounts), $38,887,000 of the balance of deferred income taxes was
credited to income in 1998, leaving a balance of $3,100,000 (See Notes 2 and
13).

     Stock Options--The Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles
Board Opinion No. 25 ("APB 25") "Accounting of Stock Issued to Employees" in
accounting for its employee stock options, and other stock based awards. Under
APB 25, if the exercise price of an employee's stock option equals or exceeds
the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant, no compensation
expense is recognized (See Note 16).

NOTE 1--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

     Cash Flows--Cash equivalents represent liquid investments which mature
within 90 days. The carrying amount approximates fair value.

     Newly Issued Accounting Standards--In June 1999, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board Statement ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 137 ("SFAS 137"), Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities-Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB No. 133", which defers
the effective date of SFAS 133 to fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000.
SFAS 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities",
establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and
for hedging activities. Generally, it requires that an entity recognizes all
derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial
position and measure those instruments at fair value, as well as identifies the
conditions for which a derivative may be specifically designated as a hedge. The
accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative depends on the intended
use of the derivative and the resulting designation. This Statement amends and
supercedes Statements previously issued. The Company does not expect that the
adoption of SFAS 133 will have a material effect on the Company's financial
condition of results of operations.

NOTE 2--DISTRIBUTION

     As part of the Distribution, OMI was party to certain agreements with MTC,
including the following:

     Distribution Agreement--The Distribution Agreement provides for, with
certain exceptions, assumptions of liabilities and cross-indemnities designed
principally to place financial responsibility for the liabilities with the
appropriate company. OMI, however, assumed the obligations of Old OMI with
respect to Old OMI's 10.25 percent Senior Notes due November 1, 2003 in exchange
for a note from MTC in the amount of $6.4 million, which was equivalent in value
to the principal amount of the Senior Notes then outstanding. During February
2000, MTC paid $5.1 million in full settlement of the note, which was due in
2003. As a result, a loss of $1,209,000 was recorded in the Consolidated
Statements of Operations for the year ended December 31, 1999 in Net other
expense. The Distribution Agreement also provides that each of MTC and OMI will
indemnify the other in the event of certain liabilities arising under the
Federal securities laws. Each of MTC and OMI will have sole responsibility for
claims arising out of its respective activities after the Distribution.

     The Distribution Agreement also provides that, except as otherwise set
forth therein or in any other agreement, all costs or expenses incurred on or
prior to the Distribution date in connection with the Distribution will be
charged to and paid by the party incurring such costs or expenses. Except as set
forth in the Distribution Agreement or any related agreement, each party shall
bear its own costs and expenses incurred after the Distribution date.

     Prior to Distribution--Prior to the distribution, debt had been incurred
for the consolidated group at the parent company level or at a limited number of
subsidiaries, rather than at the operating company level, in order to centrally
manage various cash functions. Consequently, the mortgage debt of Old OMI and
its related interest expense (net of tax benefit) were allocated to OMI
(formerly UBC) and its subsidiaries based upon the value of the vessel
collateralizing the debt. The changes in allocated corporate debt, the after-tax
allocated interest expense and the after tax allocated general and
administrative expenses have been included as Net intercompany transactions in
Stockholders' equity. Although management believes that the historical
allocation of corporate debt and interest expense is reasonable, it is not
necessarily indicative of the Company's debt or results of operations had the
Company been on a stand alone basis for the periods up to June 17, 1998.

     Net intercompany transactions represent an aggregate of allocations for
income taxes, interest expense on unsecured corporate debt and general corporate
purposes. As of the Distribution date, the cumulative balances of the Net
intercompany transactions of $40,840,000 were credited to Capital Surplus and
the balance at June 17, 1998 in Receivable from parent-net aggregating
$76,119,000 was charged to Capital Surplus. Included in the net receivable from
parent was the assumption by OMI (formerly UBC) of the revolving line of credit,
the assumption of the 10.25% Senior Notes and the 7% convertible note due 2004
(See Note 5).

NOTE 3--EARNINGS (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE

     The computation of basic (loss) earnings per share is based on the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding during the year. The computation of
diluted earnings per share assumes the foregoing and the exercise of all stock
options (See Note 16) using the treasury stock method and the conversion of the
7% convertible note due 2004 (See Note 5), to the extent dilutive.

     The components of the denominator for the calculation of basic earnings per
share and diluted earnings per share is as follows:

     The effect of the assumed conversion of the 7% convertible note due 2004
was not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share in 1999 and
1998 because the average price of OMI's stock was less than the stock conversion
price of $7.285. The effect of the assumed exercise of options was not included
in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the grant prices
exceeded the average price of OMI stock in 1999.

(1)  Rates at December 31, 1999 were 6.468 percent to 7.875percent (including
     margins).

     Rates at December 31, 1998 were 5.6384 percent to 6.60 percent (including
     margins).

     As of December 31, 1999, OMI had an aggregate of $260,646,000 in floating
rate credit facilities and revolving lines of credit. The following paragraphs
below describe these facilities and revolving lines of credit that OMI used
during 1999, which were refinanced in February 2000. On February 11, 2000, OMI
completed its refinancing with its previous lenders for a credit agreement in
the amount of $264,500,000. Prior to the refinancing and at December 31, 1999,
OMI was not in compliance with certain of its covenants under previous credit
agreements. The effect of the refinancing revises debt covenants, interest rate
margins and principal amortization. There are two primary facilities under the
new agreement. Facility A is in the amount of $218,000,000 and matures five
years from the drawdown date. It will be repaid in ten semi-annual installments
commencing six months from the drawdown date, the first four installments in the
amount of $5,000,000 and the remaining six installments in the amount of
$12,500,000, in addition to a balloon payment in the amount of $123,000,000 as
the last installment on maturity. The outstanding balance of this Facility bears
interest at LIBOR plus a margin of 1.75% and is secured by thirteen vessels.
Facility B is in the amount of $46,500,000 and is a short-term facility which
matures two years after the drawdown date. The principal of this Facility will
be repaid with proceeds on the sale of vessels secured by this facility which
are classified as vessels to be disposed of on the Consolidated Balance Sheets
at December 31, 1999. The outstanding balance of this Facility bears interest at
LIBOR plus a margin of 2% and is secured by six vessels and OMI's interest in
its 49 percent owned joint venture. A third facility provides for certain
lenders to repay a portion of Facility A in the event certain mortgage insurance
is not obtained.

     An extraordinary loss of $1,253,000 was recorded for the year ended
December 31, 1999. This loss relates to the write-off of the balance of
unamortized finance fees on debt which was refinanced in February 2000.

     Aggregate maturities during the next five years under the new credit
agreement and continued fixed rate debt from December 31, 1999 are $54,834,000,
$10,539,000, $28,577,000, $29,896,000 and $25,539,000.

     During the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997 interest paid
totaled approximately $19,202,000, $8,070,000 and $6,734,000, respectively.

     Certain of the loan agreements, including the new credit agreement of the
Company contain restrictive covenants requiring minimum levels of cash or cash
equivalents, working capital and net worth, maintenance of specified financial
ratios and collateral values, and restrict the ability of the Company to pay
dividends. These loan

agreements also contain various provisions restricting the right of OMI and/or
its subsidiaries to make certain investments, to place additional liens on the
property of certain of OMI's subsidiaries, to incur additional long-term debt,
to make certain payments, to merge or to undergo a similar corporate
reorganization, and to enter into transactions with affiliated companies.

     Each of the following loan facilities terminated with the completion of the
refinancing described above.

     On February 28, 1999, the Company obtained a $25,000,000 revolving line of
credit secured by five vessels, four of which were sold during the year, and
shares in a joint venture company. The revolving credit facility was used for
working capital and other general corporate purposes, and bore interest at LIBOR
plus a margin ranging from 1.375%-1.75%. The facility had a balance of
$6,450,000 at December 31, 1999.

     The Company had a credit facility, which was assumed from Old OMI
(currently MTC), that provided for a line of credit amounting to $99,090,000 at
December 31, 1999. The credit facility was secured by eleven vessels. The Notes
under the Credit Facility bore interest at LIBOR plus a margin ranging from
0.60%-0.95%, which was computed based on OMI's funded debt to equity ratio and
interest coverage ratio.

     On June 4, 1998, the Company entered into a secured revolving credit
agreement to refinance two Panamax tankers and to finance a new product carrier
upon delivery. On June 9, 1998, the Company drew down $16,000,000 to refinance
the two Panamax tankers. The $16,000,000 was to be repaid in quarterly
installments of $800,000 over the next five years and bore interest at LIBOR
plus a margin ranging from 0.65%-0.95%, which was computed based on the
Company's funded debt to capitalization ratio. On September 15, 1999,
$16,000,000 was drawn down to finance a new product carrier. The balance of the
loan at December 31, 1999 was $26,800,000.

     On June 4, 1998, the Company entered into a $71,500,000 secured revolving
credit facility to finance two Suezmax tankers upon their delivery from the
yard. On June 9, 1998, $35,750,000 was drawn to finance the first vessel, and on
August 7, 1998, $35,750,000 was drawn to finance the second vessel. Each
drawdown was to be repaid by semi-annual payments of $1,294,000 beginning 18
months after the initial drawdown and a balloon of $13,750,000 ten years after
the initial drawdown date. The facility bore interest at LIBOR plus a margin
ranging from 0.85%-0.95%. At December 31, 1999, the outstanding loan balance was
$70,206,000.

     On July 6, 1998, the Company entered into an agreement, as amended, for a
$37,800,000 secured reducing revolving credit facility to finance a Suezmax
tanker upon its delivery from the yard. The Company drew down $37,800,000 on
July 20, 1998 to finance the newbuilding. The availability under this facility
was to be reduced by 14 semi-annual reductions of 3.9% of the original facility,
and the remaining balance was due at maturity, which was to be ten years after
the initial drawdown. The facility bore interest at LIBOR plus a margin ranging
from 0.60%-1.05%. At December 31, 1999 the outstanding loan balance was
$36,900,000.

     During December 1998, the Company entered into an agreement with a lender
for a $60,000,000 revolving credit facility. The revolving credit facility was
to be used to finance, on an interim basis, the acquisition of vessels and would
be secured by such vessels. Amounts drawn on the revolving credit facility were
to be repaid no later than six months after drawdown. The facility bore interest
at LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.00%-1.75% which was computed based on the
Company's funded debt to total capitalization ratio and interest coverage ratio.
On January 14, 1999, the Company drew down $37,498,000 under this facility to
finance the acquisition of a Suezmax newbuilding, which was repaid in June
1999.On July 15, 1999, $21,200,000 was drawn down to finance a new product
carrier, and this balance remained at December 31, 1999.

     At December 31, 1999, vessels and shares in a joint venture with a net book
value of $385,426,000 have been pledged as collateral on long-term debt issues.

NOTE 5--LONG-TERM DEBT AND CREDIT ARRANGEMENTS (CONTINUED)

     OMI has entered into interest rate swap agreements to manage interest costs
and the risk associated with changing interest rates. The Company had one
interest rate swap agreement with a commercial bank at December 31, 1999 and
three at December 31, 1998. These agreements effectively change the Company's
interest rate exposure on floating rate loans to fixed rates ranging from 6.98
percent to 8.475 percent. The differential to be paid or received is recognized
as an adjustment to interest expense over the lives of the agreements. The
remaining swap agreement matures in June 2000. The changes in the notional
principal amounts are as follows:

     Interest expense pertaining to interest rate swaps for the years ended
December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997 was $296,000, $718,000 and $765,000,
respectively.

     The Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of non-performance by
other parties to the interest rate swap agreements. However, OMI does not
anticipate non-performance by the counter-parties.

     The fair value of long-term debt is estimated based on current rates
offered to the Company for similar debt of the same remaining maturities. The
fair value of interest rate swaps (used for purposes other than trading) is the
estimated amount the Company would pay to terminate swap agreements at the
reporting date, taking into account current interest rates and the current
credit-worthiness of the swap counter-parties.

NOTE 7--CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING FOR VOYAGE REVENUE

     Prior to 1999, voyage freight for vessels operating on voyage charters was
accounted for on a load-to-load basis. Under this method, voyage revenue is
recognized evenly over the period from arrival of the vessel at the first load
port to arrival at the next load port. Under this method of revenue recognition
it is necessary to assume the next load port to complete the revenue recognition
cycle.

     Effective January 1, 1999, OMI changed its accounting policy on recognition
of voyage freight for vessels operating on voyage charters from load-to-load to
discharge-to-discharge basis. Under this method, voyage revenue is recognized
evenly over the period from the departure of a vessel from its original
discharge port to departure from the next discharge port. The change in revenue
recognition policy is a more reliable method in recognizing voyage

revenue as it eliminates the uncertainty associated with the location of the
next load port. The cumulative effect of this accounting change is shown
separately in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and resulted in income
of $2,729,000 or $0.07 per basic and diluted earnings per share. The cumulative
effect of this change in accounting principle as of January 1, 1999 on the
Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets was to increase total assets by
$1,490,000, decrease total liabilities by $1,239,000 and increase total
stockholders' equity by $2,729,000.

     The years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997 were previously presented using
the load-to-load method of accounting for voyages. Pro forma amounts for these
years assuming discharge-to-discharge had been retroactively applied are

NOTE 8--ACCOUNTING CHANGE FOR SPECIAL SURVEY AND DRYDOCK EXPENSES

     Effective January 1, 1997, the Company changed its method of accounting for
special survey and drydock expenses from the accrual method to the prepaid
method. Special survey and drydock expenses had been accrued and charged to
operating expenses over the vessel's survey cycle. Under the prepaid method,
survey and drydock expenses are capitalized and amortized over the two to five
year period until the next cycle. Management believes the prepaid method better
matches costs with revenues and minimizes any significant changes in estimates
associated with the accrual method. The cumulative effect of this accounting
change is shown separately in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and
resulted in income of $10,063,000 (net of income taxes of $5,419,000).

     The cumulative effect of this change in accounting principle as of January
1, 1997 on the Company's balance sheet was to increase total assets by
$8,272,000, decrease total liabilities by $1,791,000 and increase total
stockholder's equity by $10,063,000.

NOTE 9--OPERATING LEASES

     Total rental expense was $16,080,000, $25,820,000 and $8,877,000 for the
years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Leases are for
vessels and office space.

     On January 19, 1999, the COLUMBIA, a new double-hulled Suezmax tanker was
delivered. The vessel, which had a book value of $55,992,000, was sold on June
30, 1999 for $54,000,000 in a sale/leaseback transaction. The COLUMBIA was then
chartered back from the purchaser over a period of three years. The resulting
lease is being accounted for as an operating lease.

     Under the agreement, the Company is responsible for operating expenses and
is required to maintain $2,000,000 in escrow over the lease term, and a standby
letter of credit, which commenced September 1999.The standby letter of credit is
increased by $750,000 per quarter in the first year and by $500,000 per quarter
in the second year to a maximum of $9,000,000. The letter of credit is
additional collateral for the Company's obligation under the charter. As of
December 31, 1999, the escrow and the standby letter of credit aggregated
$7,500,000 and was included in Other Assets and deferred charges on the
Consolidated Balance Sheet.

     In May 1997, the Company sold the ALTA (a Suezmax crude oil carrier) for
approximately $39,900,000 and leased back the vessel for five years. The gain on
the sale of approximately $15,700,000 has been deferred and is being credited to
income as an adjustment to lease expense over the term of the lease. As of
December 31, 1999, the deferred gain on sale was $7,514,000. The lessor has the
option to cancel the lease after two years with the payment of a $1,000,000
termination fee.

    Time charters to third parties of the Company's owned vessels are accounted
for as operating leases. Minimum future revenues to be received subsequent to
December 31, 1999 on these time charters are $16,133,000 in 2000 and $8,230,000
in 2001.

NOTE 10--PROVISION FOR LOSS ON LEASE OBLIGATIONS

    During 1999, as part of OMI's periodic review, the Company evaluated the
forecasted future net cash flows for vessels with lease obligations. The Company
determined that its current lease obligations for vessels exceeded its
undiscounted forecasted future net cash flows. The loss was measured by the
excess of the future lease payments, as set forth in the lease agreements, over
the vessels estimated forecasted future cash flows over the lease term. It was
determined that an impairment loss for its leases should be recognized, and a
provision of $6,229,000 was recorded in June 1999.The loss is reported as a
separate item in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The liability for
the impairment is being amortized to charter hire expense over the remaining
term of the leases.

NOTE 11--ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSALS OF VESSELS

    The SEINE and the ISERE, two new product tankers, were delivered in July and
September 1999, respectively. Both vessels immediately went on time charter for
two years.

     On October 29, 1999, OMI agreed to acquire from Mega Tankers Newbuilding
AS, a Suezmax newbuilding. The purchase price of the vessel is approximately
$46,180,000.The Company issued 5,700,000 shares on November 24, 1999 to the
seller and an additional 599,998 shares in February 2000 of OMI common stock
valued at $2.50 per share. On March 15, 2000, OMI entered into a $27,000,000
credit facility to finance this vessel upon delivery from the yard. The
remaining balance, which is approximately $3,430,000, was also paid upon
delivery.

     In July, August and November 1999, four Suezmax vessels, three built in
1975 and one built in 1974, were sold for scrap. These vessels were written down
to their estimated net realizable values in the period ended June 30, 1999.
Adjustments to the loss on disposal of assets were recorded at the sale dates.
On August 20, 1998, the Company sold the TANANA for approximately $45,000,000 at
a gain of $6,485,000. On March 12, 1997, OMI sold its liquid petroleum gas
carrier for gain of approximately $1,000,000.

NOTE 12--VESSELS TO BE DISPOSED OF

     As of December 31, 1999, the Company planned to dispose of nine vessels,
eight vessels with a net realizable value of $84,034,000 and one aframax with a
net realizable value of $4,262,000. These vessels were written down in December
1999 (the aframax was written down in June 1999 and adjusted in December 1999)
to their estimated market values, and the loss was included in the loss on
disposal/write down of assets (see Note 11) at that time. The write down of
vessels includes the reversal of the cumulative translation adjustment for
$7,442,000. The adjustment relates to two vessels whose functional currency
until July 1990 was not U.S. dollars. In December 1999, the Company contracted
to sell its aframax vessel with a delivery date scheduled for the end of the
first quarter.

     As a result of the current market condition and estimated losses on the
disposal of certain vessels, the Company re-evaluated the carrying value of its
remaining vessels under the provisions of SFAS No. 121 and concluded that no
further write downs were necessary.

(1)  1998 includes income before income taxes of $3,540,000 through June 17,
     1998 after which OMI was no longer a taxable entity.

(2)  1999 provision reflects adjustment to actual for 1998 taxes.

     The Company did not provide deferred income taxes on its equity in the
undistributed earnings of foreign corporate joint ventures accounted for under
the equity method other than those of Amazon and White Sea because these
earnings were considered by management to be invested in the business for an
indefinite period. If the earnings were not considered indefinitely invested,
approximately $6,502,000 of additional deferred tax liabilities would have been
required at December 31, 1997.

NOTE 14--FINANCIAL INFORMATION RELATING TO SEGMENTS

     The Company organizes its business principally into two operating segments.
These segments and their respective operations are as follows:

          Crude Oil Tanker Fleet--includes vessels that normally carry crude oil
     and "dirty" products. This fleet includes three sizes of vessels, Suezmax,
     Aframax and Panamax.

          Product Carrier Fleet--includes vessels that normally carry refined
     petroleum products such as gasoline, naphtha and kerosene. This fleet
     includes two sizes of vessels, Panamax and handysize vessels.

         (ALL TABULAR AMOUNTS ARE IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA)


NOTE 14--FINANCIAL INFORMATION RELATING TO SEGMENTS (CONTINUED)

     Mortgage debt of Old OMI prior to the Distribution and its related interest
expense were allocated to OMI Corporation based upon the value of the vessels
collateralizing the debt.

     General and administrative expense includes an allocation of costs of
corporate administrative services provided by Old OMI up to the Distribution
date. OMI Corporation, or its applicable subsidiary, was charged a fixed amount
per month per vessel for vessel management and accounting activities and was
charged 1.25 percent of revenues earned by each vessel for commercial
management. General corporate activities, such as salaries (other than those
included in the aforementioned fees), legal, accounting, communications and
other administrative expenses were allocated based on the services provided to
the segment. Rent expense was allocated based on the number of employees
included in the corporate allocation. Management believes the methods for
allocating such expenses were reasonable.

NOTE 15--SAVINGS PLAN

     The Company has a 401(k) Plan (the "Plan") which continued from Old OMI,
and is available to full-time employees who meet the Plan's eligibility
requirements. This Plan is a defined contribution plan, which permits employees
to make contributions up to ten percent of their annual salaries with the
Company matching up to the first six percent in 1999. The Company may elect to
make additional contributions to the Plan at the discretion of the Company's
Board of Directors. The Company also has an Executive Savings Plan for certain
key employees. Company contributions were $261,000 and $106,000 for the 401(k)
and Executive Savings Plan, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 1999,
and were $74,000 and $54,000 for the 401(k) and Executive Savings Plan,
respectively, from June 18, 1998 (distribution date) to December 31, 1998.

NOTE 16--STOCK OPTION PLAN

     The shareholders approved the 1998 Stock Option Plan ("1998 Plan") on May
19, 1998. The 1998 Plan provides for the granting of options to officers,
employees, consultants and Directors for purchase of the Company's common
shares. The total number of shares that may be awarded under the Plan are
2,500,000, not including the replacement options described in the next sentence.
Effective June 17, 1998, 855,243 options were granted to officers and employees
to replace options they held in Old OMI and have the same vesting provisions and
expiration dates as those Old OMI options forfeited. Option prices at the date
of grant represent the option prices at which options were originally granted by
Old OMI to officers and employees reduced by the estimated fair value per share
of Old OMI's domestic business. In addition, 120,000 options were issued to new
directors in 1998 and vest ratably over three years. In 1999, the Company issued
10,000 options at $3.25 per share.

not thousands) from December 31, 1998 to December 31, 1999:

     The fair value of options granted under the Company's stock option plans
during 1999 and 1998, was estimated on the dates of grant using the
Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average
assumptions used: no dividend yield, expected volatility of 40 percent, risk
free average interest rates of 6.13 percent in 1999 and 5.01 percent in 1998,
and expected lives ranging from one to five years.

     See Note 17 regarding "Change in Control".

NOTE 17--EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS

     OMI has employment agreements with all of its executive officers which
provide for an annual base salary and a performance incentive bonus. The base
salary is the amount paid in the previous year plus any raise granted by the OMI
Board. Under the contracts, bonuses are paid at the discretion of the OMI Board.
Each of these agreements also provide that if the employee (i) is terminated
without cause, (ii) voluntarily terminates his employment within 90 days of a
relocation following a Change in Control or reduction in compensation or
responsibilities, or (iii) is disabled, such employee will continue to receive
base salary and other benefits for a period of two years. In addition, in the
event of a Change in Control (as defined in the relevant agreement) and if any
such employee's employment is terminated without cause (other than for reasons
of disability) within two years of such a Change in Control, then OMI will pay
such employee an amount equal to the incentive bonus paid during the previous
twelve months and an amount equal to three times the sum of his then current
base salary and that incentive bonus.

NOTE 18--STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

     Preferred Stock--The Company has 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock
authorized, none issued.

     Shareholders' Rights Plan--On November 19, 1998, the Board of Directors
approved the adoption of a shareholder rights plan in which it declared a
dividend distribution of one Right for each outstanding share of common stock,
$0.50 par value (the "Common Stock") of the Company, to stockholders of record
at the close of business on December 1, 1998. Each Right entitles the record
holder to purchase from the Company one hundred-thousandth of a share of the
Company's Series A Participating Preferred Stock, $1.00 par value at a price of
$25.00 (the "Purchase Price"), subject to adjustment in certain circumstances.

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
         (ALL TABULAR AMOUNTS ARE IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA)


NOTE 18--STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY (CONTINUED)

     Initially, the Rights attach to the certificates representing outstanding
shares of Common Stock, and no Rights Certificates will be distributed. In
general the Rights will separate from the Common Stock and a "Distribution Date"
will occur only if a public announcement that a person or group of affiliated or
associated persons (an "Acquiring Person") has acquired, or obtained the right
to acquire, beneficial ownership of 15% or more of the outstanding shares of
Common Stock, or after the commencement of a tender offer or exchange offer if,
upon consummation thereof, the person or group making such offer would be the
beneficial owner of 15% or more of the outstanding shares of Common Stock.
Thereafter, under certain circumstances, each Right (other than any Rights that
are or were beneficially owned by an Acquiring Person, which Rights will be
void) could become exercisable to purchase at the Purchase Price a number of
shares of Common Stock (or, in certain circumstances, the common stock of a
company into which the Company is merged or consolidated or to which the Company
sells all or substantially all of its assets) having a market value equal to two
times the Purchase Price.

     Treasury Stock--On August 4, 1998, the Board of Directors approved a plan
to repurchase up to 4.4 million shares of the Company's common stock. As of
December 31, 1998, the Company purchased 2,076,700 shares at a cost of
$9,040,000 or an average price of $4.35 per share. During March 1999, OMI issued
47,408 shares of the Company's treasury stock to Directors in lieu of cash for
fees.

     Dividends--Any determination to pay dividends in the future by OMI will be
at the discretion of the Board of Directors and will be dependent upon its
results of operations, financial condition, capital restrictions, covenants and
other factors deemed relevant by the board of directors. Currently, the payment
of dividends by OMI is restricted by its credit agreements.

     Private Placement--During February 2000, OMI agreed to sell in a private
placement to four unrelated investors 9,583,000 shares of OMI common stock for
$2.00 per share ($1.92 per share net of commissions).

NOTE 19--COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

     At December 31, 1999, the Company had two doubled-hulled Suezmax tankers
under construction. One Suezmax with a cost of approximately $51,000,000 is to
be delivered in May 2000, and the other Suezmax with a cost of approximately
$46,180,000 was delivered in March 2000 (See Note 11).

     OMI acts as a guarantor for a portion of the debt incurred by a joint
venture with affiliates of its joint venture partner. Such debt was
approximately $13,450,000 at December 31, 1999 with OMI's guaranty of such debt
being approximately $6,725,000. The guarantee ended in the first quarter of 2000
when OMI sold its interest in the joint venture (See Note 4).

     OMI and certain subsidiaries are defendants in various actions arising from
shipping operations. Such actions are covered by insurance or, in the opinion of
management, are of such nature that the ultimate liability, if any, would not
have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial statements.

     The Company has guaranteed a minimum resale or residual value for a vessel
that is leased until June 2002. At December 31, 1999, the impact of the
guarantee is not expected to be material.

     The Company was a defendant in an arbitration arising from alleged defects
in a vessel sold to a third party. The claims exceeded $7,000,000 which
encompassed damages for repairs to the vessel, lost revenues, interest and
costs. During 1998, this claim was settled for $900,000.

     The Company and its joint venture partners have committed to fund any
working capital deficiencies which may be incurred by their joint venture
investments. At December 31, 1999, no such deficiencies have been funded.

NOTE 20--SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (UNAUDITED)

     During March 2000, two product carriers were contracted for sale for a
total of $21,000,000 before commissions. The vessels' net book values
aggregating $25,313,000 were recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at
December 31, 1999 as Assets to be disposed of (see Note 12). Adjustments for the
sale of these vessels were recorded to loss on disposal of assets in the first
quarter of 2000.

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of OMI Corporation:

     We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of OMI
Corporation and subsidiaries (successor to Universal Bulk Carriers, Inc. and its
subsidiaries) as of December 31, 1999 and 1998 and the related consolidated
statements of operations, and comprehensive income, stockholders' equity and
cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1999.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based
on our audits. We did not audit the financial statements of certain corporate
joint ventures, which were accounted for by use of the equity method. The
Company's equity of $7,637,000 and $9,597,000 in the net assets of those
corporate joint ventures as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively, and of
($637,000), $2,995,000, and ($1,284,000) in those companies' net income (loss)
for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1999 is included in
the accompanying financial statements. The financial statements of those
corporate joint ventures were audited by other auditors whose reports have been
furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included
for such companies, is based solely on the reports of such other auditors.

     We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits and the reports of other auditors provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

     In our opinion, based on our audits and the report of other auditors, such
consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of the companies at December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the
results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended December 31, 1999 in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

     As discussed in Note 7 to the consolidated financial statements, effective
January 1, 1999, the Company changed its method of accounting for vessels
operating on voyage charters from load-to-load to discharge-to-discharge basis.

     As discussed in Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements, effective
January 1, 1997, the Company changed its method of accounting for special and
drydock expense from the accrual method to the prepaid method.

                             AMAZON TRANSPORT, INC.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                   FOR THE THREE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999

1.   COMPANY

     Amazon Transport, Inc. (the "Company" or "Amazon") is jointly owned by a
     wholly-owned subsidiary of OMI Corporation ("OMI") and Bergesen d.y.
     Shipping AS ("Bergesen d.y. Shipping"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of
     Bergesen d.y. ASA ("Bergesen") with interests of 49 and 51 percent,
     respectively. The Company began operating as a joint venture on December 3,
     1988 for the purpose of owning and chartering commercial vessels. The
     Company owns and operates one vessel, the Settebello, for all years
     presented.

2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     Accounting Estimates--The preparation of financial statements in conformity
     with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
     estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
     liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the
     date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
     expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from
     those estimates.

     Operating Revenues and Expenses--Voyage revenues and expenses are
     recognized on the percentage of completion method of accounting based on
     voyage costs incurred to date to estimated total voyage costs. Estimated
     losses are provided in full at the time such losses become evident.

          Special survey and drydock expenses are accrued and charged to
     operating expenses over the survey cycle, which is generally a three year
     period. The accruals of such expenses are based on management's best
     estimates of future cost and the expected length of the survey cycle.
     However, the ultimate liability may be more or less than such estimates.

     Vessel--The vessel is recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided on the
     straight-line method based on the estimated 25 year useful life of the
     vessel up to the estimated salvage value. Salvage value is based upon the
     vessel's light weight tonnage multiplied by a scrap rate.

          Expenditures for maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are expensed.
     Major replacements and renewals are capitalized.

          In the event that facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying
     amount of the vessel may be impaired, an evaluation of recoverability is
     performed. If an evaluation is required, the estimated future undiscounted
     cash flows associated with the vessel are compared to the vessel's carrying
     value to determine if a writedown to fair value or discounted cash flow is
     required.

     Federal Income Taxes--No provision has been made for Federal income taxes.
     The income of the Company is not generally subject to tax as a result of
     various provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Additionally, the country
     in which the Company is incorporated exempts shipping and maritime
     operations from taxation.

     Cash Flows--Cash equivalents represent liquid investments which mature
     within 90 days. The carrying amount approximates fair value. The Company
     paid no interest in the three years ended December 31, 1999.

3.   RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

     The Company has entered into management service agreements with Bergesen,
     who act as technical and commercial managers of the Settebello. The Company
     paid Bergesen management fees of $267,291 for the year ended December 31,
     1999, $261,246 for the year ended December 31, 1998 and $256,204 for the
     year ended December 31, 1997.

          During the year 1999, the Company made a cash distribution to the
     shareholders of $4,000,000.

          During the year 1999, the Company also called in capital from the
     shareholders of $1,300,000.

          During the year 1998, the Company made a cash distribution to the
     shareholders of $4,000,000.

          During the year 1997, the Company paid back the loan to the
     shareholders of $3,000,000.

                             WHITE SEA HOLDINGS LTD.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                    FOR THE TWO YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998
                    AND THE PERIOD ENDING SEPTEMBER 29, 1999

1.   COMPANY

         White Sea Holdings Ltd. (the "Company") was jointly owned by a
     subsidiary of OMI Corporation ("OMI"), ( the successor to Universal Bulk
     Carriers, Inc.) and an affiliate of Anders Wilhelmsen & Co. A/S
     ("Wilhelmsen"), Norway, with interests of 49 and 51 percent, respectively.
     On September 29, 1999, OMI sold its 49 percent share to Wilhelmsen for
     approximately $2,427,000. The Company owns and operates one crude oil
     carrier, the White Sea.

2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     Accounting Estimates--The preparation of financial statements in conformity
     with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
     estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
     liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the
     date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
     expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from
     those estimates.

         Effective January 1, 1999, White Sea changed its accounting policy on
     recognition of voyage freight for vessels operating on voyage charters from
     load-to-load to the discharge-to-discharge basis. Under this method, voyage
     revenue is recognized evenly over the period from the departure of a vessel
     from its original discharge port to departure from the next discharge port.
     Management believes that the discharge-to-discharge method is preferable
     because (a) it is the predominant method for shipowners, and (b) it
     eliminates the uncertainty associated with the location of the next load
     port (See Note 6).

     Operating Revenues and Expenses--Voyage revenues and expenses are
     recognized on the percentage of completion method of accounting based on
     voyage costs incurred to date to estimated total voyage costs. Estimated
     losses are provided in full at the time such losses become evident.

         Effective January 1, 1997, special survey and drydock expenses are
     accounted for using the prepaid method. Under the prepaid method expenses
     are capitalized and amortized over the survey cycle, which is generally a
     two to five year period. Prior to 1997, special survey and drydock expenses
     were accrued and charged to operating expenses over the survey cycle, which
     was generally a two to three year period. The accruals of such expenses
     were based on management's best estimates of future costs and the expected
     length of the survey cycle. However, the ultimate liability may have been
     more or less than such estimates (See Note 5).

     Vessel--The vessel is recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided on the
     straight-line method based on the estimated 25 year useful life of the
     vessel up to the estimated salvage value. Salvage value is based upon the
     vessel's lightweight tonnage multiplied by a scrap rate.

         Expenditures for maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are expensed.
     Major replacements and renewals are capitalized.

         In the event that facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying
     amount of the vessel may be impaired, an evaluation of recoverability is
     performed. If an evaluation is required, the estimated future undiscounted
     cash flows associated with the vessel are compared to the vessel's carrying
     value to determine if a writedown to fair value or discounted cash flow is
     required.

     Federal Income Taxes--No provision has been made for Federal income taxes.
     The income of the Company is not generally subject to tax as a result of
     various provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Additionally, the country
     in which the Company is incorporated exempts shipping and maritime
     operations from taxation.

     Cash Flows--Cash equivalents represent liquid investments which mature
     within 90 days. The carrying amount approximates fair value. The Company
     paid $16,000, $50,000 and $182,000 in interest during 1999, 1998, and 1997,
     respectively.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (CONCLUDED)

3.   RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

         The Company has a management service agreement with OMI to act as both
     technical and commercial manager of the White Sea. The Company paid
     management fees to OMI of $113,000 for the period January 1, 1999 to
     September 29, 1999. The Company paid management fees to OMI or its
     affiliates of $78,000 for each of the years ended December 31, 1998 and
     1997.

         White Sea Holdings Ltd. owed OMI and its affiliates $19,000 and
     $54,000 as of September 29, 1999 and December 31, 1998, respectively.

4.   LONG-TERM DEBT

         At December 31, 1998 the Company had $500,000 outstanding on a mortgage
     note secured by the vessel at a rate of 6.9062 percent. The note was paid
     on March 5,1999. The fair value of long-term debt at December 31, 1998
     approximates its carrying value.

5.   ACCOUNTING CHANGE FOR SPECIAL SURVEY AND DRYDOCK EXPENSES

         Effective January 1, 1997, the Company changed its method of accounting
     for special survey and drydock expenses from the accrual method to the
     prepaid method. Special survey and drydock expenses had been accrued and
     charged to operating expenses over the vessel's survey cycle, which was
     generally a two to three year period. Under the prepaid method, survey and
     drydock expenses are capitalized and amortized over the period until the
     next survey cycle. Management believes the prepaid method better matches
     costs with revenues, and minimizes any significant changes in estimates
     associated with the accrual method. The cumulative effect of this
     accounting change is shown separately in the consolidated statement of
     operations and resulted in income of $1,196,000.

         The cumulative effect of this change in accounting principle as of
     January 1, 1997 on the Company's balance sheet was to increase total assets
     by $1,166,000, decrease total liabilities by $30,000 and increase total
     stockholders' equity by $1,196,000.

6.   CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING FOR VOYAGE REVENUE

         Prior to 1999, voyage freight for vessels operating on voyage charters
     was accounted for on a load-to-load basis. Under this method, voyage
     revenue is recognized evenly over the period from arrival of the vessel at
     the first load port to arrival at the next load port. Under this method of
     revenue recognition it is necessary to assume the next load port to
     complete the revenue recognition cycle.

         Effective January 1, 1999, White Sea changed its accounting policy on
     recognition of voyage freight for vessels operating on voyage charters from
     load-to-load to discharge-to-discharge basis. Under this method, voyage
     revenue is recognized evenly over the period from the departure of a vessel
     from its original discharge port to departure from the next discharge port.
     The change in revenue recognition policy is a more reliable method in
     recognizing voyage revenue as it eliminates the uncertainty associated with
     the location of the next load port. The cumulative effect of this
     accounting change is shown separately in the Statements of Income and
     resulted in income of $245,000. The cumulative effect of this change in
     accounting principle as of January 1, 1999 on the Company's Balance Sheets
     was to increase total assets by $42,000, decrease total liabilities by
     $203,000 and increase total stockholders' equity by $245,000.

         The years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997 were previously presented
     using the load-to-load method of accounting for voyages. Pro forma amounts
     for these years assuming discharge-to-discharge had been retroactively
     applied are net income of $1,910,000 and $5,688,000 for the years ended
     December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

7.   DIVIDENDS

         During 1999, 1998 and 1997, the Company declared and paid dividends of
     $1,000,000, $3,000,000 and $1,500,000, respectively.
