Section
2.     Amount and Terms of Term Loan Facility


 


2.01         The
Commitments. (a) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender with a Commitment severally agrees
to make a term loan or term loans (each, a “Loan” and, collectively, the “Loans”) to the
Borrower, which Loans: (i) may only be incurred pursuant to a single drawing on the Borrowing Date, which shall occur on or after
the Effective Date and prior to the Commitment Termination Date; (ii) shall be denominated in Dollars and (iii) shall be made by
each such Lender in an aggregate principal amount which does not exceed the Commitment of such Lender on the Borrowing Date (determined
before giving effect on the Borrowing Date to the termination thereof on such date pursuant to Section 3.03). Once repaid, Loans
incurred hereunder may not be reborrowed.


 


(b)          Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in no event will the principal amount of the Loans made on the Borrowing Date exceed the lesser of (A) 60% of the Appraised
Value of the Collateral Vessels and (B) $460,000,000.


 


2.02        Minimum
Amount of Each Borrowing. The aggregate principal amount of each Borrowing of Loans shall not be less than the Minimum Borrowing
Amount. More than one Borrowing may occur on the same date.


 


2.03        Notice
of Borrowing. Whenever the Borrower desires to incur the Loans hereunder, it shall give the Administrative Agent at the Notice
Office at least three Business Days’ prior notice of the Loans to be incurred hereunder, provided that any such notice
shall be deemed to have been given on a certain day only if given before 10:00 AM (New York time) on such day. Such written notice
(the “Notice of Borrowing”), except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 2.09, shall be irrevocable and
shall be given by the Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit A, appropriately completed to specify and include:


 


(i)       the
aggregate principal amount of the Loans to be incurred pursuant to initial Borrowing,


 


(ii)      the
calculations required to establish whether the Borrower is in compliance with the provisions of Section 2.01(b),


 


(iii)     the
date of the initial Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), and


 


(iv)     the
initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto in accordance with Section 2.08.


 


The Administrative Agent shall promptly
give each Lender notice of such proposed Borrowing, of such Lender’s proportionate share thereof and of the other matters
required by the immediately preceding sentence to be specified in the Notice of Borrowing.


 




    	 	-32-	 



     


    

 


2.04         Disbursement
of Funds. Except as otherwise specifically provided in the immediately succeeding sentence, no later than 12:00 Noon (New York
time) on the date specified in the Notice of Borrowing, each Lender with a Commitment will make available its pro rata portion of the Borrowing requested to be made on the Borrowing Date. All such amounts shall be made available in Dollars and in
immediately available funds at the Payment Office of the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent will make available
to the Borrower (on such day to the extent of funds actually received by the Administrative Agent prior to 12:00 Noon (New York
time) on such day) at the Payment Office, in the account specified in the Notice of Borrowing, the aggregate of the amounts so
made available by the Lenders. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the Borrowing Date
that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s portion of such Borrowing,
the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on the Borrowing
Date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount.
If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender, the Administrative Agent
shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding
amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower
and the Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall also
be entitled to recover on demand from such Lender or the Borrower, as the case may be, interest on such corresponding amount in
respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower until
the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to (i) if recovered
from such Lender, the overnight Federal Funds Rate and (ii) if recovered from the Borrower, the rate of interest applicable
to the respective Borrowing, as determined pursuant to Section 2.07.


 


2.05         Notes.
(a) The Borrower’s obligation to pay the principal of, and interest on, the Loans made by each Lender shall be evidenced
in the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 11.17 and shall, if requested by such Lender, also
be evidenced by a promissory note duly executed and delivered by the Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit B, with
blanks appropriately completed in conformity herewith (each, a “Note” and, collectively, the “Notes”).


 


(b)           Each
Lender will note on its internal records the amount of each Loan made by it and each payment in respect thereof and will, prior
to any transfer of any of its Notes, endorse on the reverse side thereof the outstanding principal amount of Loans evidenced thereby.
Failure to make any such notation or any error in any such notation or endorsement shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations
in respect of such Loans.


 


(c)           Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained above in this Section 2.05 or elsewhere in this Agreement, Notes shall be delivered only to
Lenders that at any time specifically request the delivery of such Notes. No failure of any Lender to request or obtain a Note
evidencing its Loans to the Borrower shall affect or in any manner impair the obligations of the Borrower to pay the Loans (and
all related Obligations) incurred by the Borrower that would otherwise be evidenced thereby in accordance with the requirements
of this Agreement, and shall not in any way affect the security or guaranties therefor provided pursuant to the Credit Documents.
Any Lender that does not have a Note evidencing its outstanding Loans shall in no event be required to make the notations on such
Note otherwise described in preceding clause (b). At any time (including, without limitation, to replace any Note that has been
destroyed or lost) when any Lender requests the delivery of a Note to evidence any of its Loans, the Borrower shall promptly execute
and deliver to such Lender the requested Note in the appropriate amount or amounts to evidence such Loans, provided that,
in the case of a substitute or replacement Note, the Borrower shall have received from such requesting Lender (i) an affidavit
of loss or destruction and (ii) a customary lost/destroyed Note indemnity, in each case in form and substance reasonably acceptable
to the Borrower and such requesting Lender, and duly executed by such requesting Lender.


 




    	 	-33-	 



     


    

 


2.06       Pro
Rata Borrowings. All Borrowings of Loans under this Agreement shall be incurred from the Lenders pro rata on the basis of their
Commitments. It is understood that no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender of its obligation to make
Loans hereunder and that each Lender shall be obligated to make the Loans provided to be made by it hereunder, regardless of the
failure of any other Lender to make its Loans hereunder.


 


2.07        Interest.
(a) The Borrower agrees to pay interest in respect of the unpaid principal amount of the Loan from the Borrowing Date until
the maturity thereof (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum which shall be equal to the sum of the Applicable
Margin plus the Eurodollar Rate for the relevant Interest Period, each as in effect from time to time.


 


(b)          If the
Borrower fails to pay any amount payable by it under a Credit Document on its due date, interest shall accrue on the overdue
amount (in the case of overdue interest to the extent permitted by law) from the due date up to the date of actual payment (both
before and after judgment) at a rate which is, subject to paragraph (c) below, 2% plus the rate which would have been
payable if the overdue amount had, during the period of non-payment, constituted a Loan for successive Interest Periods, each of
a duration selected by the Administrative Agent.  Any interest accruing under this Section 2.07(b) shall be immediately
payable by the Borrower on demand by the Administrative Agent.


 


(c)          If
any overdue amount consists of all or part of a Loan which became due on a day which was not the last day of an Interest Period
relating to such Loan:


 


(i)       the
first Interest Period for that overdue amount shall have a duration equal to the unexpired portion of the current Interest Period
relating to that Loan; and


 


(ii)      the
rate of interest applying to the overdue amount during that first Interest Period shall be 2% plus the rate which would
have applied if the overdue amount had not become due.


 


Default interest (if
unpaid) arising on an overdue amount will be compounded with the overdue amount at the end of each Interest Period applicable to
that overdue amount but will remain immediately due and payable.


 


(d)         Accrued
and unpaid interest shall be payable (i) on the last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto and, in the case of an Interest
Period in excess of three months, on each date occurring at three month intervals after the first day of such Interest Period,
and (ii) on any repayment or prepayment (on the amount repaid or prepaid), at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise)
and, after such maturity, on demand.


 


(e)         Upon
each Interest Determination Date, the Administrative Agent shall determine the Eurodollar Rate for each Interest Period applicable
to the Loans and shall promptly notify the Borrower and the respective Lenders thereof. Each such determination shall, absent manifest
error, be final and conclusive and binding on all parties hereto.


 




    	 	-34-	 



     


    

 


2.08       Interest
Periods. At the time the Borrower gives the Notice of Borrowing in respect of the making of the Loans (in the case of the
initial Interest Period applicable thereto) or on the third Business Day prior to the expiration of an Interest Period applicable
to such Loan (in the case of any subsequent Interest Period) (provided that any such notice shall be deemed to be given
on a certain day only if given before 10:00 AM (New York time)), it shall have the right to elect, by giving the Administrative
Agent notice thereof, the interest period (each an “Interest Period”) applicable to such Loan, which Interest
Period shall, at the option of the Borrower, be a one (or, with the consent of the Required Lenders, less than one) month, three
month or six month period (or such other period as all the Lenders may agree); provided that:


 


(i)       all
Loans comprising a Borrowing shall at all times have the same Interest Period;


 


(ii)      subject
to clause (iii) below, each Interest Period for any Loan after the initial Interest Period with respect thereto shall commence
on the day on which the immediately preceding Interest Period applicable thereto expires;


 


(iii)     if
any Interest Period relating to a Loan begins on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month
at the end of such Interest Period, such Interest Period shall end on the last Business Day of such calendar month;


 


(iv)     if
any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the first
succeeding Business Day; provided, however, that if any Interest Period for a Loan would otherwise expire on a day
which is not a Business Day but is a day of the month after which no further Business Day occurs in such month, such Interest Period
shall expire on the immediately preceding Business Day;


 


(v)      no
Interest Period in respect of any Borrowing of Loans shall be selected which extends beyond the Maturity Date;


 


(vi)     any
Interest Period commencing less than one month prior to the Maturity Date shall end on the Maturity Date;


 


(vii)    unless
the Required Lenders otherwise agree, no Interest Period longer than three months may be selected at any time when a Default or
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;


 


(viii)   if,
at any time, the Borrower shall select an Interest Period of less than one month for any Loan, then the Eurodollar Rate applicable
to such Loan for such Interest Period shall be based on (x) the Screen Rate at such time, if available, or (y) if the Screen Rate
is not then available, the rate supplied by the Reference Banks to the Administrative Agent to determine the Eurodollar Rate for
such Interest Period;


 




    	 	-35-	 



     


    

 


(ix)     no
Interest Period shall be selected which extends beyond any date upon which a scheduled repayment of Loans will be required to be
made under Section 4.02(a) if the aggregate principal amount of Loans which have Interest Periods which will expire after such
date will be in excess of the aggregate principal amount of Loans then outstanding less the aggregate amount of such required repayment
on such date; and


 


(x)      no
more than 3 Interest Periods shall be outstanding at any time.


 


If upon the expiration
of any Interest Period applicable to a Borrowing of Loans, the Borrower has failed to elect a new Interest Period to be applicable
to such Loans as provided above, the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected a three month Interest Period to be applicable to
such Loans effective as of the expiration date of such current Interest Period.


 


2.09        Increased
Costs, Illegality, Market Disruption, etc.   (a)   In the event that any
Lender shall have reasonably determined in good faith (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive
and binding upon all parties hereto):


 


(i)       at
any time that such Lender shall incur increased costs or reductions in the amounts received or receivable hereunder with respect
to any Loan because of, without duplication, the introduction of or effectiveness of or any Change in Law since the Effective Date
in any applicable law or governmental rule, regulation, order, guideline, directive or request (whether or not having the force
of law) concerning capital adequacy or otherwise or in the interpretation or administration thereof and including the introduction
of any new law or governmental rule, regulation, order, guideline or request, such as, for example, but not limited to: (A) a change
in the basis of taxation of payment to any Lender of the principal of or interest on such Loan or any other amounts payable hereunder
(except for changes in the rate of tax on, or determined by reference to, the net income or net profits of such Lender pursuant
to the laws of the jurisdiction in which such Lender or the entity controlling such Lender is organized or in which the principal
office of such Lender or the entity controlling such Lender or such Lender’s applicable lending office is located or any
subdivision thereof or therein), but without duplication of any amounts payable in respect of Taxes pursuant to Section 4.04, (B)
a change in official reserve requirements but, in all events, excluding reserves required under Regulation D to the extent included
in the computation of the Eurodollar Rate, or (C) a change that will have the effect of increasing the amount of capital required
to be maintained by such Lender, or any corporation controlling such Lender, based on the existence of such Lender’s Commitments
hereunder or its obligations hereunder; or


 


(ii)      at
any time, that the making or continuance of any Loan has been made unlawful by any law or governmental rule, regulation or order;


 


then, and in any such event, such Lender
shall promptly give notice (by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrower and, in the case of clause (ii) above, to the Administrative
Agent of such determination (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the Lenders). Thereafter
(x) in the case of clause (i) above, the Borrower agrees (to the extent applicable), to pay to such Lender, upon its written demand
therefor, such additional amounts as shall be required to compensate such Lender or such other corporation for the increased costs
or reductions to such Lender or such other corporation and (y) in the case of clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall take one of
the actions specified in Section 2.09(b) as promptly as possible and, in any event, within the time period required by law. In
determining such additional amounts, each Lender will act reasonably and in good faith and will use averaging and attribution
methods which are reasonable, provided that such Lender’s determination of compensation owing under this Section
2.09(a) shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all the parties hereto. Each Lender, upon determining
that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 2.09(a), will give prompt written notice thereof to the Borrower,
which notice shall set out, in reasonable detail, the basis for the calculation of such additional amounts; provided that,
subject to the provisions of Section 2.11(b), the failure to give such notice shall not relieve the Borrower from its obligations
hereunder.

(b)          At
any time that any Loan is affected by the circumstances described in Section 2.09(a)(i), the Borrower may, and in the case of a
Loan affected by the circumstances described in Section 2.09(a)(ii), the Borrower shall, either (x) if the affected Loan is then
being made initially, cancel the respective Loan by giving the Administrative Agent telephonic notice (confirmed in writing) on
the same date or the next Business Day that the Borrower was notified by the affected Lender or the Administrative Agent pursuant
to Section 2.09(a)(i) or (ii) or (y) if the affected Loan is then outstanding, upon at least three Business Days’ written
notice to the Administrative Agent, repay such affected Loan (within the time period required by the applicable law or governmental
rule, governmental regulation or governmental order) in full in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 4.02; provided
that if more than one Lender is affected at any time, then all affected Lenders must be treated the same pursuant to this Section
2.09(b).


 


(c)          If
a Market Disruption Event occurs in relation to a Loan for any Interest Period, then the rate of interest on each Lender’s
share of the Loan for the relevant Interest Period shall be the rate per annum which is the sum of:


 


(i)       the
Applicable Margin; and


 


(ii)      the
rate determined by each Lender and notified to the Administrative Agent, which expresses the actual cost to each such Lender of
funding its participation in the Loan for a period equivalent to such Interest Period from whatever source it may reasonably select.


 


(d)          If
a Market Disruption Event occurs and the Administrative Agent or the Borrower so require, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower
shall enter into negotiations (for a period of not more than thirty days) with a view to agreeing a substitute basis for determining
the rate of interest. Any alternative basis agreed pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall, with the prior consent
of all the Lenders and the Borrower, be binding on all parties. If no agreement is reached pursuant to this clause (d), the rate
provided for in clause (c) above shall apply for the entire Interest Period.

any Reference Bank ceases to be a Lender under this Agreement, (x) it shall cease to be a Reference Bank and (y) the Administrative
Agent shall, with the approval (which shall not be unreasonably withheld) of the Borrower, nominate as soon as reasonably practicable
another Lender to be a Reference Bank in place of such Reference Bank.

basis for requesting and the calculation of such compensation; provided that no Lender shall be required to disclose any information
that would be confidential or price sensitive), for all reasonable and documented losses, expenses and liabilities (including,
without limitation, any such loss, expense or liability incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other
funds required by such Lender to fund its Loans but excluding any loss of anticipated profits) which such Lender may sustain in
respect of Loans made to the Borrower: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Lender or the Administrative Agent)
the initial Borrowing of Loans does not occur on the date specified therefor in the Notice of Borrowing (whether or not withdrawn
by the Borrower or deemed withdrawn pursuant to Section 2.09(a)); (ii) if any prepayment or repayment (including any prepayment
or repayment made pursuant to Section 2.09(a), Section 4.01 or Section 4.02 or as a result of an acceleration of the Loans pursuant
to Section 9) of any of its Loans, or assignment of its Loans pursuant to Section 2.12, occurs on a date which is not the last
day of an Interest Period with respect thereto; (iii) if any prepayment of any of its Loans is not made on any date specified in
a notice of prepayment given by the Borrower; or (iv) as a consequence of any other Default or Event of Default arising as a result
of the Borrower’s failure to repay Loans or make payment on any Note held by such Lender when required by the terms of this
Agreement.


 


2.11         Change
of Lending Office; Limitation on Additional Amounts. (a) Each Lender agrees that on the occurrence of any event giving rise
to the operation of Section 2.09(a), Section 2.09(b) or Section 4.04 with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested
by the Borrower, use reasonable good faith efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another
lending office for any Loans affected by such event, provided that such designation is made on such terms that such Lender
and its lending office suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage (other than any such disadvantage that is immaterial
and reimbursed by the Borrower), with the object of avoiding the consequence of the event giving rise to the operation of such
Section. Nothing in this Section 2.11 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the rights of any
Lender provided in Sections 2.09 and 4.04.


 


(b)           Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in Sections 2.09, 2.10 or 4.04 of this Agreement, unless a Lender gives notice to the Borrower
that it is obligated to pay an amount under any such Section within 180 days of the later of (x) the date the Lender incurs the
respective increased costs, Taxes, loss, expense or liability, reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return
on capital or (y) the date such Lender has actual or constructive knowledge of its incurrence of the respective increased costs,
Taxes, loss, expense or liability, reductions in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital, then such Lender
shall only be entitled to be compensated for such amount by the Borrower pursuant to said Section 2.09, 2.10 or 4.04, as the case
may be, to the extent the costs, Taxes, loss, expense or liability, reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in
return on capital are incurred or suffered on or after the date which occurs 180 days prior to such Lender giving notice to the
Borrower that it is obligated to pay the respective amounts pursuant to said Section 2.09, 2.10 or 4.04, as the case may be. This
Section 2.11(b) shall have no applicability to any Section of this Agreement other than said Sections 2.09, 2.10 and 4.04.

2.12        Replacement
of Lenders. (x) If any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, (y) upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation
of Section 2.09(a), Section 2.09(b) or Section 4.04 with respect to any Lender which results in such Lender charging to the
Borrower increased costs in excess of those being generally charged by the other Lenders, or (z) as provided in Section 11.13(b)
in the case of certain refusals by a Lender to consent to certain proposed changes, waivers, discharges or terminations with respect
to this Agreement which have been approved by the Required Lenders, the Borrower shall have the right, if no Event of Default will
exist immediately after giving effect to the respective replacement, to replace such Lender (the “Replaced Lender”)
with one or more other Eligible Transferee or Eligible Transferees, none of whom shall constitute a Defaulting Lender at the time
of such replacement (collectively, the “Replacement Lender”) reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent,
provided that:


 


(i)       at
the time of any replacement pursuant to this Section 2.12, the Replacement Lender shall enter into one or more Assignment and Assumption
Agreements pursuant to Section 11.04(b) (and with all fees payable pursuant to said Section 11.04(b) to be paid by the Replacement
Lender) pursuant to which the Replacement Lender shall acquire all of the Commitments and outstanding Loans of the Replaced Lender
and, in connection therewith, shall pay to the Replaced Lender in respect thereof an amount equal to the sum (without duplication)
of (x) an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Loans of the Replaced Lender, and
(y) an amount equal to all accrued, but unpaid, Commitment Commission owing to the Replaced Lender pursuant to Section 3.01; and


 


(ii)       all
obligations of the Borrower due and owing to the Replaced Lender at such time (other than those specifically described in clause
(i) above in respect of which the assignment purchase price has been, or is concurrently being, paid) shall be paid in full to
such Replaced Lender concurrently with such replacement.


 


Upon receipt by the Replaced Lender of
all amounts required to be paid to it pursuant to this Section 2.12, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled (but not obligated)
and is authorized (which authorization is coupled with an interest) to execute an Assignment and Assumption Agreement on behalf
of such Replaced Lender, and any such Assignment and Assumption Agreement so executed by the Administrative Agent and the Replacement
Lender shall be effective for purposes of this Section 2.12 and Section 11.04. Upon the execution of the respective Assignment
and Assumption Agreement, the payment of amounts referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) above and, if so requested by the Replacement
Lender, delivery to (i) the Replacement Lender of the appropriate Note or Notes executed by the Borrower, the Replacement Lender
shall become a Lender hereunder and the Replaced Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder, except with respect to indemnification
provisions under this Agreement (including, without limitation, Sections 2.09, 2.10, 4.04, 11.01, 11.17 and 11.18), which shall
survive as to such Replaced Lender.

Section
3.     Commitment Commission; Reductions of Commitment.


 


3.01         Commitment
Commission; Fees. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay the Administrative Agent for distribution to each Non-Defaulting Lender a
commitment commission (the “Commitment Commission”) for the period from the Effective Date to and including
the earlier of (i) the Borrowing Date and (ii) the Commitment Termination Date computed at a per annum rate equal to 35%
of the Applicable Margin in respect of the daily Total Commitments of such Non-Defaulting Lenders. Accrued Commitment Commission
shall be due and payable in arrears on such earlier date.


 


(b)           The
Borrower shall pay (i) to the Lead Arrangers, the fees set forth in the Fee Letter and (ii) to the Administrative Agent, for the
Administrative Agent’s own account, such other fees as have been agreed to in writing by the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent.


 


3.02         Voluntary

to the Commitment Termination Date, in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in the case of partial reductions, provided that,
in each case, such reduction shall apply proportionately to permanently reduce the Commitments of each Lender.

(b)          In
the event of certain refusals by a Lender as provided in Section 11.13(b) to consent to certain proposed changes, waivers, discharges
or terminations with respect to this Agreement which have been approved by the Required Lenders, the Borrower may, subject to the
requirements of said Section 11.13(b) and upon five Business Days’ written notice to the Administrative Agent at its Notice
Office (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the Lenders), terminate all of the Commitment
(if any) of such Lender so long as all Loans, together with accrued and unpaid interest, Commitment Commission and all other amounts,
owing to such Lender are repaid concurrently with the effectiveness of such termination (at which time Schedule I hereto
shall be deemed modified to reflect such changed amounts), and at such time such Lender shall no longer constitute a “Lender”
for purposes of this Agreement, except with respect to indemnification provisions under this Agreement (including, without limitation,
Sections 2.09, 2.10, 4.04, 11.01, 11.17 and 11.18), which shall survive as to such repaid Lender.


 


3.03        Mandatory
Reduction of Commitments. The Total Commitments (and the Commitments of each Lender) shall terminate in their entirety on the
earlier of the Borrowing Date and the Commitment Termination Date.


 


Section
4.     Prepayments; Payments; Taxes.


 


4.01       Voluntary
Prepayments. (a) The Borrower shall have the right to prepay the Loans, without premium or penalty, in whole or in part at
any time and from time to time on the following terms and conditions:


 


(i)       the
Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent, prior to 10:00 AM (New York time) at its Notice Office, at least three Business Days’
prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of its intent to prepay such Loans and the amount of
such prepayment, which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the Lenders;


 


(ii)       each
partial prepayment of Loans pursuant to this Section 4.01 shall be in an aggregate principal amount of at least $1,000,000 (or
such lesser amount as is acceptable to the Administrative Agent in any given case);


 


(iii)       at
the time of any prepayment of Loans pursuant to this Section 4.01 which occurs on any date other than the last day of the Interest
Period applicable thereto, the Borrower shall pay the amounts required pursuant to Section 2.10;


 


(iv)       except
as expressly provided in clause (v) below, each prepayment of Loans pursuant to this Section 4.01 shall be allocated among the
Lenders pro rata in accordance with the principal amount of the Loans held by such Lenders, and shall be applied to the
future Scheduled Amortization Payment Amounts due on the Payment Dates and the final installment (the “balloon” payment)
amount due on the Maturity Date pro rata in accordance with the remaining outstanding principal amounts of such
installments, provided that at the Borrower’s election in connection with any prepayment of Loans pursuant to this
Section 4.01, such prepayment shall not, so long as no Event of Default then exists, be applied to any Loan of a Defaulting Lender
until all other Loans of Non-Defaulting Lenders have been repaid in full; and


 




    	 	-41-	 



     


    

 


(v)      in
the event of a refusal by a Lender to consent to certain proposed changes, waivers, discharges or terminations with respect to
this Agreement which have been approved by the Required Lenders as (and to the extent) provided in Section 11.13(b), the Borrower
may, upon five Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent at the Notice Office (which notice the Administrative
Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the Lenders) repay all Loans, together with accrued and unpaid interest, Fees, and other
amounts owing to such Lender in accordance with, and subject to the requirements of, said Section 11.13(b) so long as (I) all Commitments
of such Lender are terminated concurrently with such repayment pursuant to Section 4.02(d) (at which time Schedule I hereto
shall be deemed modified to reflect the changed Commitments) and (II) the consents, if any, required under Section 11.13(b) in
connection with the repayment pursuant to this clause (a) have been obtained.


 


(b)           Loans
prepaid pursuant to this Section 4.01 may not be reborrowed.


 


4.02         Mandatory
Repayments and Commitment Reductions.


 


(a)            In
addition to any other mandatory repayments or commitment reductions pursuant to this Section 4.02, the Borrower shall be required
to repay Loans on each Payment Date in an amount equal to the Scheduled Amortization Payment Amount for such Payment Date.


 


(b)            In
addition to any other mandatory repayments or commitment reductions required pursuant to this Section 4.02, but without duplication,
on (i) the date of any Collateral Disposition involving a Collateral Vessel (other than a Collateral Disposition constituting an
Event of Loss) and (ii) the earlier of (A) the date which is 180 days following any Collateral Disposition constituting an Event
of Loss involving a Collateral Vessel (or, if such date is not a Business Day, on the following Business Day) and (B) the date
of receipt by the Parent Guarantor, the Borrower, any Subsidiary Guarantor or the Administrative Agent of the insurance proceeds
relating to such Event of Loss (or, if such date is not a Business Day, on the following Business Day), in each case, the Borrower
shall repay an aggregate principal amount of outstanding Loans in an amount equal to the then aggregate outstanding principal amount
of the Loans, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Appraised Value of the affected Collateral Vessel and the
denominator of which is the aggregate of the Appraised Values of all Collateral Vessels (including such affected Collateral Vessel).


 


(c)           Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default resulting from a breach of Section 8.07(d) and without
duplication of the undertakings in such Section, the Borrower shall be required to immediately repay Loans in accordance with
the requirements of Section 4.02(d) in an amount required to cure such Event of Default, provided that it is understood and
agreed that the requirement to repay Loans under this Section 4.02(c) shall not be deemed a waiver of any other right or
remedy that any Lender may have as a result of an Event of Default resulting from a breach of Section 8.07(d).


 




    	 	-42-	 



     


    

 


(d)           Each
repayment of Loans required by Section 2.09(a)(ii), this Section 4.02 or Section 8.07(d)(y) shall be allocated among the Lenders
pro rata in accordance with the principal amount of the Loans held by such Lenders, and shall be applied to the future Scheduled
Amortization Payment Amounts due on the Payment Dates and the final installment amount (the “balloon” payment) due
on the Maturity Date pro rata in accordance with the remaining outstanding principal amounts of such installments, provided
that at the Borrower’s election in connection with any prepayment of Loans pursuant to this Section 4.02, such prepayment
shall not, so long as no Event of Default then exists, be applied to any Loan of a Defaulting Lender until all other Loans of Non-Defaulting
Lenders have been repaid in full.


 


(e)           The
Loans repaid pursuant to this Section 4.02 may not be reborrowed.


 


(f)            Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement (other than the other mandatory repayments and commitment reductions
required pursuant to this Section 4.02), all then outstanding Loans shall be repaid in full on the Maturity Date.


 


4.03         Method
and Place of Payment.  Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all payments under this Agreement or any Note
shall be made to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lender or Lenders entitled thereto not later than 10:00 AM
(New York time) on the date when due and shall be made in Dollars in immediately available funds at the Payment Office of the
Administrative Agent or such other office in the State of New York as the Administrative Agent may hereafter designate in
writing. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder or under any Note shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a
Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the first succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of
principal, interest shall be payable at the applicable rate during such extension; provided, however,
that if any Interest Period for a Loan would otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day but is a day of the month
after which no further Business Day occurs in such month, such Interest Period shall expire on the immediately preceding
Business Day.


 


4.04        Net
Payments; Taxes.


 


(a)          All
payments made by any Credit Party hereunder or under any Note will be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense. All such
payments will be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes imposed with respect to such payments
unless required by applicable law. If applicable law requires the deduction or withholding of any Taxes from or in respect of any
sum payable under any Note, then:


 


(i)       the
Borrower shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding,


 


(ii)      the
Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority and


 


(iii)     in
the case of any Indemnified Taxes, the Borrower agrees to pay the full amount of such Indemnified Taxes, and such additional amounts
as may be necessary so that every payment of all amounts due under this Agreement or under any Note, after withholding or deduction
for or on account of any Indemnified Taxes, will not be less than the amount provided for herein or in such Note.


 




    	 	-43-	 



     


    

 


If any amounts are payable in respect of
Indemnified Taxes pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Borrower agrees to reimburse each Lender, upon the written request of
such Lender, for Taxes imposed on or measured by the net income of such Lender pursuant to the laws of the jurisdiction in which
such Lender is organized or in which the principal office or applicable lending office of such Lender is located or under the laws
of any political subdivision or Governmental Authority of any such jurisdiction in which such Lender is organized or in which the
principal office or applicable lending office of such Lender is located and for any withholding of Taxes as such Lender shall determine
are payable by, or withheld from, such Lender, in respect of such amounts so paid to or on behalf of such Lender pursuant to the
preceding sentence and in respect of any amounts paid to or on behalf of such Lender pursuant to this sentence. The Borrower shall
indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified
Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required
to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto,
whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate
as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent),
or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower
will use commercially reasonable efforts to furnish to the Administrative Agent within 45 days after the date of payment of any
Indemnified Taxes is due pursuant to applicable law certified copies of Tax receipts evidencing such payment or other evidence
of such payment by the Borrower. The Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Lender, and reimburse such Lender upon
its written request, for the amount of any Indemnified Taxes so levied or imposed and paid by such Lender.


 


(b)           Without
duplicating the payments under subsection (a) above, the Borrower agrees to pay any and all present or future stamp, court or documentary
Taxes and any other excise (in the nature of a documentary or similar Tax), property, intangible, filing or mortgage recording
Taxes or charges or similar levies imposed by any Governmental Authority which arise from the execution, delivery, performance,
enforcement or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Note excluding (i) such amounts imposed in connection with an
Assignment and Assumption Agreement, grant of a participation, transfer or assignment to or designation of a new applicable lending
office or other office for receiving payments under any Note, except to the extent that any such change is requested in writing
by the Borrower and (ii) the registration or presentation of a Note is mandatorily required by law (all such non-excluded Taxes
described in this Section 4.04(b) being referred to as “Other Taxes”).


 


(c)           Any
Recipient that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Credit
Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower
or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative
Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Recipient,
if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable
law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent
to determine whether or not such Recipient is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation shall not
be required if in the Recipient’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Recipient
to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Recipient.
For the avoidance of doubt, in the case of payment that is treated as being from sources in the U.S. for U.S. federal income Tax
purposes, an Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 or W-9 will not be subject to the restrictions in the prior sentence.


 




    	 	-44-	 



     


    

 


(d)           If
the Administrative Agent or a Lender determines in its sole discretion that it has actually received or realized a refund of any
Indemnified Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by a Credit Party or with respect to which such Credit Party has paid additional
amounts pursuant to Section 4.04(a), it shall pay over such refund to such Credit Party (but only to the extent of indemnity payments
made, or additional amounts paid, by such Credit Party under Section 4.04(a) with respect to the Indemnified Taxes giving rise
to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender (including any Taxes imposed with
respect to such refund) as is determined in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent or Lender in good faith, and without
interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). In the event the Administrative
Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority, then such Credit Party, upon the written
request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to promptly repay the amount paid over to such Credit Party (plus any
penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority, but without any other interest, penalties
or charges) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender. Nothing in this Section 4.04(d) shall require a Lender to disclose any
confidential information (including, without limitation, its Tax returns or its calculations).


 


(e)           If
a payment made to a Lender under any Note would be subject to withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply
with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable),
such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time
or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including
as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code or an intergovernmental agreement) and such additional documentation reasonably
requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply
with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA
or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this paragraph (e), if any applicable
law requires the deduction or withholding of any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable upon the Note, including any Taxes
imposed under FATCA, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to make deductions or withholding. “FATCA” shall include
any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.


 




    	 	-45-	 



     


    

 


(f)           Each
Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes
attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for
such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s
failure to comply with the provisions of Section 11.04(a) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Taxes
excluded in Section 4.04(a) attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in
connection with any Note, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were
correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment
or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby
authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Note or
otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative
Agent under this paragraph (f).


 


4.05        Application
of Proceeds. (a) All monies collected by the Collateral Agent upon any sale or other disposition of the Collateral of each
Credit Party, together with all other monies received by the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent under and in accordance with
this Agreement and the other Credit Documents (except to the extent (i) such monies are for the account of the Administrative Agent
or Collateral Agent only or (ii) released in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement or any other Credit Document)
and all distributions made in respect of the Collateral in any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar proceedings, shall
be applied to the payment of the Secured Obligations in accordance as follows:


 


(i)       first,
to the payment of all amounts owing the Collateral Agent of the type described in clauses (iii) and (iv) of the definition of “Secured
Obligations”;


 


(ii)      second,
to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clause (i), an amount equal to the outstanding Credit
Document Obligations shall be paid to the Lenders as provided in Section 4.05(d) hereof, with each Lender receiving an amount equal
to such outstanding Credit Document Obligations or, if the proceeds are insufficient to pay in full all such Credit Document Obligations,
its Pro Rata Share of the amount remaining to be distributed;


 


(iii)     third,
to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clauses (i) and (ii), an amount equal to the outstanding
Other Obligations shall be paid to the Other Creditors as provided in Section 4.05(d) hereof, with each Other Creditor receiving
an amount equal to such outstanding Other Obligations or, if the proceeds are insufficient to pay in full all such Other Obligations,
its Pro Rata Share of the amount remaining to be distributed; and


 


(iv)     fourth,
to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clauses (i) through (iii), inclusive, and following
the termination of this Agreement and the Credit Documents in accordance with their terms, to the relevant Credit Party or to whomever
may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.


 




    	 	-46-	 



     


    

 


(b)           For
purposes of this Agreement, “Pro Rata Share” shall mean, when calculating a Secured Creditor's portion of any
distribution or amount, that amount (expressed as a percentage) equal to a fraction the numerator of which is the then unpaid amount
of such Secured Creditor's Credit Document Obligations or Other Obligations, as the case may be, and the denominator of which is
the then outstanding amount of all Credit Document Obligations or Other Obligations, as the case may be.


 


(c)           When
payments to Secured Creditors are based upon their respective Pro Rata Shares, the amounts received by such Secured Creditors hereunder
shall be applied (for purposes of making determinations under this Section 4.05 only) (i) first, to their Credit Document Obligations
and (ii) second, to their Other Obligations. If any payment to any Secured Creditor of its Pro Rata Share of any distribution would
result in overpayment to such Secured Creditor, such excess amount shall instead be distributed in respect of the unpaid Credit
Document Obligations or Other Obligations, as the case may be, of the other Secured Creditors, with each Secured Creditor whose
Credit Document Obligations or Other Obligations, as the case may be, have not been paid in full to receive an amount equal to
such excess amount multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the unpaid Credit Document Obligations or Other Obligations,
as the case may be, of such Secured Creditor and the denominator of which is the unpaid Credit Document Obligations or Other Obligations,
as the case may be, of all Secured Creditors entitled to such distribution.

6.01         Corporate/Limited
Liability Company/Limited Partnership Status. Each Credit Party (i) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation and (ii) is duly qualified and is authorized to do business

Validity and Enforceability.


 


(a)            Each
Credit Party has duly executed and delivered each of the Credit Documents to which it is party, and each of such Credit Documents
constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Credit Party enforceable against such Credit Party in accordance with
its terms, except to the extent that the enforceability thereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent
conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws generally affecting creditors’ rights and by equitable principles
(regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law).


 


(b)            After
the execution and delivery thereof and upon the taking of the actions mentioned in the immediately succeeding sentence, each of
the Security Documents creates in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors a legal, valid and enforceable
fully perfected first priority security interest in and Lien on all right, title and interest of the Credit Parties party thereto
in the Collateral described therein, subject only to Permitted Liens. Subject to Sections 5.01(l) and 6.06 and the definition of

each such Credit Document in Hong Kong and any other applicable Acceptable Flag Jurisdiction, it is not necessary that any Credit

except as have been made, or will be made, in accordance with Section 5.


 




    	 	-51-	 



     


    

 


(d)           None
of the Credit Parties has a place of business in any jurisdiction which requires any of the Security Documents to be filed or registered
in that jurisdiction to ensure the validity of the Security Documents to which it is a party unless all such filings and registrations
have been made or will be made, in accordance with Section 5.


 


6.05         No
Violation. Neither the execution, delivery or performance by any Credit Party of the Credit Documents to which it is a party,
nor compliance by it with the terms and provisions thereof, will (i) contravene any material provision of any applicable law, statute,
rule or regulation or any applicable order, writ, injunction or decree of any court or governmental instrumentality, (ii) materially
violate or result in any material breach of any of the terms, covenants, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under,

the material properties or assets of any Credit Party pursuant to the terms of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, credit agreement
or loan agreement, or any other material agreement, contract or instrument, to which any Credit Party is a party or by which it
or any of its material property or assets is bound or to which it may be subject or (iii) violate any provision of the Organizational

governmental or public body or authority, or any subdivision thereof, is required to authorize, or is required in connection with,
(i) the execution, delivery and performance by any Credit Party of any Credit Document to which it is a party or (ii) the legality,
validity, binding effect or enforceability of any Credit Document to which it is a party, in each case, except (x) as have been
obtained or made or (y) filings or other requisite actions necessary to perfect or establish the priority of the Liens created
under the Security Documents.


 


(b)           No

the legality, validity, or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents other than recording and filing
fees and/or taxes which have been, or will be, paid as and to the extent due. Under the laws of Hong Kong, the choice of the laws
of the State of New York as set forth in the Credit Documents which are stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York
is a valid choice of law, and the irrevocable submission by each Credit Party to jurisdiction and consent to service of process
and, where necessary, appointment by such Credit Party of an agent for service of process, in each case as set forth in such Credit
Documents, is legal, valid, binding and effective.

Passu or Priority Status. The claims of the Administrative

gives rise to a payment, whether or not such right to an equitable remedy is reduced to judgment, fixed, contingent, matured, unmatured,
disputed, undisputed, secured or unsecured. The amount of contingent liabilities at any time shall be computed as the amount that,
in the light of all the facts and circumstances existing at such time, represents the amount that can reasonably be expected to
become an actual or matured liability.

7.11        Further
Assurances. (a) The Parent Guarantor, and each other Credit Party,
agrees that at any time and from time to time, at the expense of the Parent Guarantor or such other Credit Party, it will promptly
execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action that may be reasonably necessary, or that
the Administrative Agent may reasonably require, to perfect and protect any Lien granted or purported to be granted hereby or by
the other Credit Documents, or to enable the Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies with respect to any
Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Parent Guarantor will execute, if required, and file, or cause
to be filed, such financing or continuation statements under the UCC (or any non-U.S. equivalent thereto), or amendments thereto,
such amendments or supplements to the Collateral Vessel Mortgages (including any amendments required to maintain Liens granted
by such Collateral Vessel Mortgages), and such other instruments or notices, as may be reasonably necessary, or that the Administrative
Agent may reasonably require, to protect and preserve the Liens granted or purported to be granted hereby and by the other Credit
Documents.


 


(b)          Each
of the Parent Guarantor and the Borrower hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to file one or more financing or continuation statements
under the UCC (or any non-U.S. equivalent thereto), and amendments thereto, relative to all or any part of the Collateral without
the signature of the Parent Guarantor, the Borrower or any other Credit Party, where permitted by law. The Collateral Agent will
promptly send the Parent Guarantor a copy of any financing or continuation statements which it may file without the signature of
the Borrower and the filing or recordation information with respect thereto.


 


(c)           If
at any time any Subsidiary of the Parent Guarantor owns a Collateral Vessel or owns, directly or indirectly, an interest in any
Subsidiary which owns a Collateral Vessel and such Subsidiary has not otherwise satisfied the Collateral and Guaranty Requirements,
the Parent Guarantor will cause such Subsidiary (and any Subsidiary which directly or indirectly owns the Equity Interests of such
Subsidiary to the extent not a Credit Party) to satisfy the Collateral and Guaranty Requirements with respect to each relevant
Collateral Vessel as such Subsidiary would have been required to satisfy pursuant to Section 5 of this Agreement had such Subsidiary
been a Credit Party on the Borrowing Date.


 


(d)          At
the reasonable written request of any counterparty to an Interest Rate Protection Agreement entered into after the Borrowing Date
(to the extent permitted under this Agreement to be entered into and secured) with one or more Lenders or any Affiliate thereof
(even if, after the entry into such Interest Rate Protection Agreement, the respective Lender subsequently ceases to be a Lender
for any reason), the applicable Credit Party and, at the written direction of the Collateral Agent, the mortgagee, shall promptly
execute an amendment to each Collateral Vessel Mortgage adding obligations under such Interest Rate Protection Agreement as an
additional secured obligation under each Collateral Vessel Mortgage (and allowing such obligations to be secured on such basis
as set forth in this Agreement or in the Pledge Agreement), and cause the same to be promptly and duly recorded, and such amendment
shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent.

7.12        Deposit
of Earnings. Each Credit Party will cause the earnings derived from
each of the respective Collateral Vessels, to the extent constituting Earnings and Insurance Collateral, to be deposited by the
respective account debtor in respect of such earnings into the Concentration Account (it being understood that, absent an Event
of Default (and, solely with respect to Section 8.07(d), a Default), the Borrower shall have full control of the funds within the
Concentration Account). Without limiting any Credit Party’s obligations in respect of this Section 7.12, each Credit Party
agrees that, in the event it receives any earnings constituting Earnings and Insurance Collateral, or any such earnings are deposited
other than in the Concentration Account, it shall promptly deposit all such proceeds into the Concentration Account. 


 


7.13        Ownership
of Subsidiaries and Collateral Vessels. (a)  The Parent
Guarantor will directly (or indirectly through a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of the Parent Guarantor), own 100% of the Equity Interests
in the Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor.


 


(b)          The
Parent Guarantor shall cause the Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor, to at all times, be directly wholly-owned by one or more
Credit Parties.

Parent Guarantor will cause each Collateral Vessel to be owned at all times by a single Subsidiary Guarantor that owns no other
Collateral Vessels.

(a) Each Credit Party which owns or operates a Collateral Vessel will be qualified to own and operate such Collateral Vessel under
the laws of Hong Kong or another Acceptable Flag Jurisdiction, in each case in accordance with the terms of the related Collateral
Vessel Mortgage, provided that the Collateral and Guaranty Requirements are satisfied with respect to such Collateral Vessel. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, any Credit Party may transfer a Collateral Vessel to an Acceptable Flag Jurisdiction pursuant to the requirements
set forth in the definition of “Flag Jurisdiction Transfer”.


 


(b)          Each
Credit Party which operates a Collateral Vessel will (i) comply with and satisfy in all material respects all applicable Legal
Requirements of the Flag Jurisdiction of such Collateral Vessel, now or hereafter from time to time in effect, in order that such
Collateral Vessel shall continue to be documented pursuant to the laws of such Flag Jurisdiction with such endorsements as shall
qualify such Collateral Vessel for participation in the trades and services to which it may be dedicated from time to time or (ii)
not do or allow to be done anything whereby such documentation is or could reasonably be expected to be forfeited.


 


(c)          Other
than as a result of damage or casualty, each Credit Party which operates a Collateral Vessel will keep such Collateral Vessel in
a good and sufficient state of repair consistent with the ship-ownership and management practice employed by first class owners
of vessels of similar size and type and so as to ensure that each Collateral Vessel is classified in the class available for vessels
of its age and type with an Acceptable Classification Society, free of any overdue conditions or recommendations affecting the
seaworthiness of such Collateral Vessel, provided that if the classification of any of the Collateral Vessels shall be subject
to any such recommendations, each Credit Party which operates such Collateral Vessel will, upon the reasonable request of the Administrative
Agent, provide a written report to the Administrative Agent describing the recommendations and assessing the steps required to
be taken to prevent such recommendations from becoming overdue recommendations.

on such Collateral Vessel except in the ordinary course of the operation and maintenance of such Collateral Vessel unless (x) the
part or item so removed is forthwith replaced by a suitable part or item which is in the same condition as or better condition
than the part or item removed, is free from any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) in favor of any Person other than the Collateral
Agent and becomes, upon installation on such Collateral Vessel, the property of the Credit Parties and subject to the security
constituted by the Collateral Vessel Mortgage or the Pledge Agreement or (y) the removal will not materially diminish the value
of such Collateral Vessel.


 


(e)           Each
Credit Party which operates a Collateral Vessel will submit such Collateral Vessel to such periodical or other surveys as may be
required for classification purposes and, upon the written request of the Collateral Agent, supply to the Collateral Agent copies

Credit Party which operates a Collateral Vessel will promptly pay and discharge all tolls, dues, taxes, assessments, governmental
charges, fines, penalties, debts, damages and liabilities whatsoever which have given or may give rise to maritime or possessory
Liens (other than Permitted Liens) on, or claims enforceable against, such Collateral Vessel other than any of the foregoing being
contested in good faith and diligently by appropriate proceedings, and, in the event of arrest of any Collateral Vessel pursuant
to legal process, or in the event of its detention in exercise or purported exercise of any such Lien or claim as aforesaid, procure,
if possible, the release of such Collateral Vessel from such arrest or detention forthwith upon receiving notice thereof by providing
bail or otherwise as the circumstances may require.


 


(g)          Each
Credit Party which operates a Collateral Vessel will maintain, or cause to be maintained by the charterer or lessee of any Collateral

Collateral Vessel and such other similar certificates as may be required in the course of the operations of any Collateral Vessel
pursuant to the International Convention on Civil Liability for Oil Pollution Damage of 1969, or other applicable Legal Requirements.


 


(h)          Each
Credit Party which operates a Collateral Vessel will cause such Collateral Vessels to be managed by the Technical Manager and the

Manager from sub-contracting its management duties.

contract (if permitted thereunder), and will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the charterer under such charter
contract to execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent a consent to the Assignment of Charters in form and substance reasonably

Section
10.   Agency
and Security Trustee Provisions.


 


10.01      Appointment.
(a) The Lenders in their capacity as Lenders and Other Creditors (by their acceptance of the benefits hereof and of the other Credit
Documents) hereby irrevocably designate and appoint Nordea, as Administrative Agent (for purposes of this Section 10 the term “Administrative
Agent” shall include Nordea (and/or any of its affiliates) in its capacity as Collateral Agent pursuant to the Security
Documents and in its capacity as mortgagee (if applicable) and security trustee pursuant to the Collateral Vessel Mortgages) to
act as specified herein and in the other Credit Documents. Each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes, and each holder of any Note
by the acceptance of such Note shall be deemed irrevocably to authorize, the Agents to take such action on its behalf under the
provisions of this Agreement, the other Credit Documents and any other instruments and agreements referred to herein or therein
and to exercise such powers and to perform such duties hereunder and thereunder as are specifically delegated to or required of
such Agent by the terms hereof and thereof and such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Agents may perform any
of their duties hereunder by or through its respective officers, directors, agents, employees or affiliates and, may assign from
time to time any or all of its rights, duties and obligations hereunder and under the Security Documents to any of its banking
affiliates.


 


(b)          The
Lenders hereby irrevocably designate and appoint Nordea as security trustee solely for the purpose of holding the Collateral Vessel
Mortgages on each of the Collateral Vessels in an Acceptable Flag Jurisdiction on behalf of the Lenders, from time to time, with
regard to the (i) security, powers, rights, titles, benefits and interests (both present and future) constituted by and conferred
on the Lenders or any of them or for the benefit thereof under or pursuant to the Collateral Vessel Mortgages (including, without
limitation, the benefit of all covenants, undertakings, representations, warranties and obligations given, made or undertaken by
any Lender in the Collateral Vessel Mortgages), (ii) all money, property and other assets paid or transferred to or vested in any
Lender or any agent of any Lender or received or recovered by any Lender or any agent of any Lender pursuant to, or in connection
with the Collateral Vessel Mortgages, whether from the Parent Guarantor, the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor or any other
Person and (iii) all money, investments, property and other assets at any time representing or deriving from any of the foregoing,
including all interest, income and other sums at any time received or receivable by any Lender or any agent of any Lender in respect
of the same (or any part thereof). Nordea hereby accepts such appointment as security trustee.


 


10.02      Nature
of Duties. (a) The Agents shall have no duties or responsibilities
except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the Security Documents. None of the Agents nor any of their respective officers,
directors, agents, employees or affiliates shall be liable for any action taken or omitted by it or them hereunder or under any
other Credit Document or in connection herewith or therewith, unless caused by such Person’s gross negligence or willful
misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non–appealable decision (any such liability
limited to the applicable Agent to whom such Person relates). The duties of each of the Agents shall be mechanical and administrative
in nature; none of the Agents shall have by reason of this Agreement or any other Credit Document any fiduciary relationship in
respect of any Lender or the holder of any Note; and nothing in this Agreement or any other Credit Document, expressed or implied,
is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon any Agents any obligations in respect of this Agreement or any other
Credit Document except as expressly set forth herein or therein.


 


(b)          It
is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Credit Documents (or any other similar
term) with reference to the Administrative Agent in such capacity is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or
express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom,
and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.


 




    	 	-83-	 



     


    

 


10.03      Lack
of Reliance on the Agents. Independently and without reliance upon
the Agents, each Lender and the holder of each Note, to the extent it deems appropriate, has made and shall continue to make (i)
its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Parent Guarantor and its Subsidiaries in connection
with the making and the continuance of the Loans and the taking or not taking of any action in connection herewith and (ii) its
own appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Parent Guarantor and its Subsidiaries and, except as expressly provided in this Agreement,
none of the Agents shall have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender or the
holder of any Note with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making
of the Loans or at any time or times thereafter. None of the Agents shall be responsible to any Lender or the holder of any Note
for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties herein or in any document, certificate or other writing
delivered in connection herewith or for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, perfection, collectability,
priority or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Credit Document or the financial condition of the Parent Guarantor and its
Subsidiaries or be required to make any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions
or conditions of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, or the financial condition of the Parent Guarantor and its Subsidiaries
or the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default.


 


10.04      Certain
Rights of the Agents. If any of the Agents shall request instructions
from the Required Lenders with respect to any act or action (including failure to act) in connection with this Agreement or any
other Credit Document, the Agents shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action unless and until the Agents
shall have received instructions from the Required Lenders; and the Agents shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of
so refraining. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender or the holder of any Note shall have any right of action whatsoever against
the Agents as a result of any of the Agents acting or refraining from acting hereunder or under any other Credit Document in accordance
with the instructions of the Required Lenders.


 


10.05      Reliance.
Each of the Agents shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice,
statement, certificate, email, telex, teletype or telecopier message, cablegram, radiogram, order or other document or telephone
message signed, sent or made by any Person that the applicable Agent reasonably believed to be the proper Person, and, with respect
to all legal matters pertaining to this Agreement and any other Credit Document and its duties hereunder and thereunder, upon advice
of counsel selected by the Administrative Agent.


 


10.06      Indemnification.
To the extent any of the Agents is not reimbursed and indemnified by the Parent Guarantor, Borrower, the Lenders will reimburse
and indemnify the applicable Agents, in proportion to their respective “percentages” as used in determining the Required
Lenders (without regard to the existence of any Defaulting Lenders), for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, costs, expenses or disbursements of whatsoever kind or nature which may be imposed
on, asserted against or incurred by such Agents in performing their respective duties hereunder or under any other Credit Document,
in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Credit Document (including, without limitation, as a result
of a breach of any Sanctions Laws by a Credit Party); provided that no Lender shall be liable in respect to an Agent for
any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements
resulting from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in
a final and non-appealable decision). The indemnities contained in this Section 10.06 shall cover any cost, loss or liability incurred
by each Indemnified Party in any jurisdiction arising or asserted under or in connection with any law relating to safety at sea,
the ISM Code, ISPS Code or any Environmental Law.

10.07     The
Administrative Agent in its Individual Capacity. With respect to its obligation to make Loans under this Agreement, each of
the Agents shall have the rights and powers specified herein for a “Lender” and may exercise the same rights and powers
as though it were not performing the duties specified herein; and the term “Lenders,” “Secured Creditors”,
“Required Lenders”, “holders of Notes” or any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise
indicates, include each of the Agents in their respective individual capacity. Each of the Agents may accept deposits from, lend
money to, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with any Credit Party or any Affiliate of any Credit
Party as if it were not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration from the Borrower or
any other Credit Party for services in connection with this Agreement and otherwise without having to account for the same to the
Lenders.


 


10.08     Holders.
The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until
a written notice of the assignment, transfer or endorsement thereof, as the case may be, shall have been filed with the Administrative
Agent. Any request, authority or consent of any Person who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent,
is the holder of any Note shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, transferee, assignee or endorsee, as the case
may be, of such Note or of any Note or Notes issued in exchange therefor.


 


10.09     Resignation
by the Administrative Agent.


 


(a)          The Administrative Agent may resign from the performance of all its functions and duties hereunder and/or under the other Credit

provided below.


 


(b)          Upon
a notice of resignation delivered by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.09(a), the Required Lenders shall appoint
a successor Administrative Agent hereunder or thereunder who shall be a commercial bank or trust company reasonably acceptable
to the Borrower, which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (provided that the Borrower’s approval
shall not be required if an Event of Default then exists).


 


(c)          If,
following the Administrative Agent delivering a notice of resignation pursuant to Section 10.09(a), a successor Administrative
Agent shall not have been so appointed within such 30 Business Day period, the Administrative Agent, with the consent of the Borrower
(which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that the Borrower’s approval shall not be required
if an Event of Default then exists), shall then appoint a commercial bank or trust company with capital and surplus of not less
than $500,000,000 as successor Administrative Agent who shall serve as Administrative Agent hereunder or thereunder until such
time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided above.

(d)          If
no successor Administrative Agent has been appointed pursuant to clause (b) or (c) above by the 25th Business Day after the date
such notice of resignation was given by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent’s resignation shall become effective

10.10     Collateral
Matters. (a)  Each Lender authorizes and directs the Collateral Agent to enter into the Security Documents for the
benefit of the Lenders and the other Secured Creditors. Each Lender hereby agrees, and each holder of any Note by the acceptance
thereof will be deemed to agree, that, except as otherwise set forth herein, any action taken by the Required Lenders in accordance

upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the Security Documents.


 


(b)          The

hereunder, to the extent required by Section 11.13) or (v) as otherwise may be expressly provided in the relevant Security Documents.
Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority
to release its interest in particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 10.10.


 




    	 	-86-	 



     


    

 


(c)          The
Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to the Lenders or to any other Person to assure that the Collateral exists
or is owned by any Credit Party or is cared for, protected or insured or that the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent herein
or pursuant hereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to
any particular priority, or to exercise or to continue exercising at all or in any manner or under any duty of care, disclosure
or fidelity any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to the Collateral Agent in this Section 10.10 or in
any of the Security Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event
related thereto, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to the Lenders, except for its gross negligence
or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision).


 


(d)          (i)
The Other Creditors shall not have any right whatsoever to do any of the following: (A) exercise any rights or remedies with respect
to the Collateral or to direct any Agent to do the same, including, without limitation, the right to (1) enforce any Liens or sell
or otherwise foreclose on any portion of the Collateral, (2) request any action, institute any proceedings, exercise any voting
rights, give any instructions, make any election or make collections with respect to all or any portion of the Collateral or (3)
release any Credit Party under any Credit Document or release any Collateral from the Liens of any Security Document or consent
to or otherwise approve any such release; (B) demand, accept or obtain any Lien on any Collateral (except for Liens arising under,
and subject to the terms of, the Credit Documents); (C) vote in any case concerning any Credit Party under the Bankruptcy Code
or any other proceeding under any reorganization, arrangement, adjudication of debt, relief of debtors, dissolution, insolvency,
liquidation or similar proceeding in respect of the Credit Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries (any such proceeding,
for purposes of this clause (d)(i)(C), a “Bankruptcy Proceeding”) with respect to, or take any other actions
concerning the Collateral; (D) receive any proceeds from any sale, transfer or other disposition of any of the Collateral (except
in accordance with this Agreement); (E) oppose any sale, transfer or other disposition of the Collateral; (F) object to any debtor-in-possession

Proceeding; or (H) seek, or object to the Lenders or any Agent seeking on an equal and ratable basis, any adequate protection or

(ii)         Each
Other Creditor, by its acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, agrees that in exercising rights
and remedies with respect to the Collateral, the Agents and the Lenders, with the consent of the Agents, may enforce the provisions
of the Credit Documents and exercise remedies thereunder (or refrain from enforcing rights and exercising remedies), all in such
order and in such manner as they may determine in the exercise of their sole business judgment. Such exercise and enforcement shall
include, without limitation, the rights to collect, sell, dispose of or otherwise realize upon all or any part of the Collateral,
to incur expenses in connection with such collection, sale, disposition or other realization and to exercise all the rights and
remedies of a secured lender under the UCC. The Other Creditors by their acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement and the other
Credit Documents hereby agree not to contest or otherwise challenge any such collection, sale, disposition or other realization
of or upon all or any of the Collateral. Whether or not a Bankruptcy Proceeding has been commenced, the Other Creditors shall be
deemed to have consented to any sale or other disposition of any property, business or assets of the Credit Parties and the release
of any or all of the Collateral from the Liens of any Security Document in connection therewith.


 




    	 	-87-	 



     


    

 


(iii)         To
the maximum extent permitted by law, each Other Creditor waives any claim it might have against the Agents or the Lenders with
respect to, or arising out of, any action or failure to act or any error of judgment, negligence, or mistake or oversight whatsoever
on the part of any Agent or the Lenders or their respective directors, officers, employees or agents with respect to any exercise
of rights or remedies under the Credit Documents or any transaction relating to the Collateral (including, without limitation,
any such exercise described in Section 10(d)(ii)), except for any such action or failure to act that constitutes willful misconduct
or gross negligence of such Person. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, none of either Agent or any Lender or any
of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any
of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral
upon the request of the Parent Guarantor, any Subsidiary of the Parent Guarantor, any Other Creditor or any other Person or to
take any other action or forbear from doing so whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof, except for any such
action or failure to act that constitutes willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Person.


 


10.11     Delivery
of Information. The Agents shall not be required to deliver to any Lender originals or copies of any documents, instruments,
notices, communications or other information received by the Agents from any Credit Party, any Subsidiary, the Required Lenders,
any Lender or any other Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document except (i) as specifically
provided in this Agreement or any other Credit Document and (ii) as specifically requested from time to time in writing by any
Lender with respect to a specific document, instrument, notice or other written communication received by and in the possession
of any Agent at the time of receipt of such request and then only in accordance with such specific request.

11.01       Payment
of Expenses, etc. (a) The Borrower agrees that it shall  (i) pay all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs
and expenses of each of the Agents (which shall be limited, in the case of legal fees, to the reasonable and documented fees and
disbursements of one legal counsel to the Administrative Agent and the Lead Arrangers, local counsel and maritime counsel (as necessary)
to the Administrative Agent) in connection with the syndication of the Term Loan Facility, the preparation, negotiation, execution,
delivery and administration of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and the documents and instruments referred to herein
and therein and any amendment, waiver or consent relating hereto or thereto (whether or not the transactions herein contemplated
are consummated), and (ii) pay all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses of each of the Agents and the
Lenders (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel (excluding in-house counsel) for each
of the Agents and for each of the Lenders) in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights (A) in connection this
Agreement and the other Credit Documents and the documents and instruments referred to herein and therein and (B) in connection

    	 	-88-	 



     


    

 


(b)          In
addition, the Borrower shall indemnify the Agents and each Lender, and each of their respective officers, directors, trustees,
employees, representatives and agents (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) from, and hold each of them
harmless against, any and all liabilities, obligations (including removal or remedial actions), losses, damages, penalties, claims,
actions, judgments, civil penalties, fines, settlements, suits and out-of-pocket costs, expenses and disbursements (including reasonable
and documented out-of-pocket attorneys’ and consultants’ fees and disbursements) incurred by, imposed on or assessed
against any of them as a result of, or arising out of, or in any way related to, or by reason of:


 


(i)          any
investigation, litigation or other proceeding (whether or not any of the Agents, the Collateral Agent or any Lender is a party
thereto) related to the entering into and/or performance of this Agreement or any other Credit Document or the use of proceeds
of the Loans hereunder or the consummation of any transactions contemplated herein, or in any other Credit Document or the exercise
of any of their rights or remedies provided herein or in the other Credit Documents,


 


(ii)          the
actual or alleged presence of Hazardous Materials on or from any Collateral Vessel or real property or facility at any time owned
or operated by the Parent Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries,


 


(iii)         the generation,
storage, transportation, handling, disposal or Environmental Release of Hazardous Materials at any location, owned or operated
at any time by the Parent Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries,


 


(iv)         the non-compliance
of any Collateral Vessel or any real property or facility at any time owned or operated by the Parent Guarantor, the Borrower or
any Subsidiary Guarantor with Environmental Law or applicable foreign, federal, state and local laws, regulations, and ordinances
(including applicable permits thereunder),


 


(v)         any Environmental
Claim asserted against the Parent Guarantor, any of its Subsidiaries or any Collateral Vessel or any real property or facility
at any time owned or operated by the Parent Guarantor, the Borrower or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors, or


 


(vi)         the conduct
of any Credit Party or any of its partners, directors, officers, employees, agents or advisors, that violates any Sanctions Laws,


 


in each case excluding any losses, liabilities,
claims, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, disbursements or expenses to the extent incurred by reason of the
gross negligence of, the breach in bad faith of the Credit Documents by, or wilful misconduct of, any such Indemnified Party or
by reason of a failure by any such Indemnified Party to fund its Commitments as required by this Agreement. To the extent that
the undertaking to indemnify, pay or hold harmless each of the Agents or any Lender set forth in the preceding sentence may be
unenforceable because it violates any law or public policy, the Borrower shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and
satisfaction of each of the indemnified liabilities which is permissible under applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no
party hereto shall be responsible to any Person for any consequential, indirect, special or punitive damages which may be alleged
by such Person arising out of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents.

11.02     Right
of Setoff. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law or otherwise, and not by way of limitation
of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Lender is hereby authorized at
any time or from time to time, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind to any Subsidiary or the Borrower
or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and apply any and all deposits
(general or special) and any other Financial Indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Lender (including, without limitation,
by branches and agencies of such Lender wherever located) to or for the credit or the account of the Parent Guarantor or any of
its Subsidiaries but in any event excluding assets held in trust for any such Person against and on account of the Obligations
and liabilities of the Parent Guarantor or such Subsidiary, as applicable, to such Lender under this Agreement or under any of
the other Credit Documents, including, without limitation, all interests in Obligations purchased by such Lender pursuant to Section
11.06(b), and all other claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected with this Agreement or any other Credit
Document, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand hereunder and although said Obligations, liabilities
or claims, or any of them, shall be contingent or unmatured.


 


11.03     Notices.
Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing
(including telegraphic, telecopier or e-mail communication) and mailed, e-mailed, telecopied or delivered: if to any Credit Party,

name on Schedule II hereto; and if to the Administrative Agent, at its Notice Office; or, as to any Credit Party, at such
other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other parties hereto and, as to each Lender, at such

11.04     Benefit
of Agreement; Assignments; Participations. (a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable
by the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto; provided, however, that (i) no Credit Party may assign
or transfer any of its rights, obligations or interest hereunder or under any other Credit Document without the prior written consent
of the Lenders, (ii) although any Lender may grant participations in its rights hereunder, such Lender shall remain a “Lender”
for all purposes hereunder (and may not transfer or assign all or any portion of its Commitments hereunder except as provided in
Section 11.04(b)) and no participant shall constitute a “Lender” hereunder and (iii) no Lender shall transfer or grant
any participation under which the participant shall have rights to approve any amendment to or waiver of this Agreement or any
other Credit Document except to the extent such amendment or waiver would (x) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan or
Note in which such participant is participating, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or Commitment Commission
thereon (except (I) in connection with a waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates and (II) that any
amendment or modification to the financial definitions in this Agreement shall not constitute a reduction in the rate of interest
for purposes of this clause (x)) or reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase the amount of the participant’s participation
over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of a mandatory
reduction in the Total Commitments shall not constitute a change in the terms of such participation, and that an increase in any
Commitment or Loan shall be permitted without the consent of any participant if the participant’s participation is not increased
as a result thereof), (y) consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this
Agreement or (z) release all or substantially all of the Collateral under all of the Security Documents (except as expressly provided
in the Credit Documents) securing the Loans hereunder in which such participant is participating. In the case of any such participation,
the participant shall not have any rights under this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents (the participant’s rights
against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by such Lender in favor of
the participant relating thereto) and all amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not
sold such participation. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower,
maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest)
of each participant’s interest in the Loan or other obligations under the Note (the “Participant Register”);
provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity
of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any commitments, loans or its other obligations
under any Note) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter
of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries
in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded
in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to
the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility
for maintaining a Participant Register.


 


(b)         Notwithstanding
the foregoing, any Lender (or any Lender together with one or more other Lenders) may:


 


(x)         assign
all or a portion of its Commitment and/or its outstanding Loans to its (i) parent company and/or any Affiliate of such Lender or
its parent company or (ii) in the case of any Lender that is a fund that invests in bank loans, any other fund that invests in
bank loans and is managed or advised by the same investment advisor of such Lender or by an Affiliate of such investment advisor
or (iii) to one or more Lenders or


 




    	 	-91-	 



     


    

 


(y)         assign,
with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in each case which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed and in the case of the Borrower, (i) shall not be required if any Default under Section 9.01 or 9.05 or any Event of Default
is then in existence and (ii) shall be deemed to have been granted within 5 Business Days from the day it has been sought unless
expressly refused within that period), all, or if less than all, a portion equal to at least $10,000,000 (and in increments of
$1,000,000 in excess thereof) (unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower) in the aggregate for the assigning
Lender or assigning Lenders, of such Commitments and outstanding principal amount of Loans hereunder to one or more Eligible Transferees
(treating any fund that invests in bank loans and any other fund that invests in bank loans and is managed or advised by the same
investment advisor of such fund or by an Affiliate of such investment advisor as a single Eligible Transferee), each of which assignees
shall become a party to this Agreement as a Lender by execution of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement,


 


provided that (i) at such time Schedule I
hereto shall be deemed modified to reflect the Commitments (and/or outstanding Loans, as the case may be) of such new Lender and
of the existing Lenders, (ii) new Notes will be issued, at the Borrower’s expense, to such new Lender and to the assigning
Lender upon the request of such new Lender or assigning Lender, such new Notes to be in conformity with the requirements of Section
2.05 (with appropriate modifications) to the extent needed to reflect the revised Commitments (and/or outstanding Loans, as the
case may be), (iii) the consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required in connection with any assignment pursuant to preceding
clause (y) (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and (iv) the Administrative Agent shall receive at the
time of each such assignment, from the assigning or assignee Lender, the payment of a non-refundable assignment fee of $5,000.
To the extent of any assignment pursuant to this Section 11.04(b), the assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder
with respect to its assigned Commitments (it being understood that the indemnification provisions under this Agreement (including,
without limitation, Sections 2.09, 2.10, 4.04, 11.01, 11.17 and 11.18) shall survive as to such assigning Lender with respect to
matters occurring prior to the date such assigning Lender ceases to be a Lender). To the extent that an assignment of all or any
portion of a Lender’s Commitments and related outstanding Obligations pursuant to Section 2.12 or this Section 11.04(b) would,
at the time of such assignment, result in increased costs under Section 2.09, 2.10 or 4.04 from those being charged by the respective
assigning Lender prior to such assignment, then the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay such increased costs (although the Borrower
shall be obligated to pay any other increased costs of the type described above resulting from any Change in Law after the date
of the respective assignment).


 


(c)         Nothing
in this Agreement shall prevent or prohibit any Lender from pledging its Loans and Notes hereunder to a Federal Reserve Bank in
support of borrowings made by such Lender from such Federal Reserve Bank and, with the consent of the Administrative Agent, any
Lender which is a fund may pledge all or any portion of its Notes or Loans to a trustee for the benefit of investors and in support
of its obligation to such investors; provided, however, no such pledge shall release a Lender from any of its obligations
hereunder or substitute any such pledgee for such Lender as a party hereto.


 




    	 	-92-	 



     


    

 


11.05     No
Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any holder of any
Note in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document and no course of dealing between
the Borrower or any other Credit Party and the Administrative Agent or any Lender or the holder of any Note shall operate as a
waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document
preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder.
The rights, powers and remedies herein or in any other Credit Document expressly provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any
rights, powers or remedies which the Administrative Agent or any Lender or the holder of any Note would otherwise have. No notice
to or demand on any Credit Party in any case shall entitle any Credit Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar
or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender or the holder of any Note
to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.


 


11.06     Payments
Pro Rata. (a) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent agrees that promptly after its receipt
of each payment from or on behalf of the Borrower in respect of any Obligations hereunder, it shall distribute such payment to
the Lenders (other than any Lender that has consented in writing to waive its pro rata share of any such payment) pro
rata based upon their respective shares, if any, of the Obligations with respect to which such payment was received.


 


(b)         Each
of the Lenders agrees that, if it should receive any amount hereunder (whether by voluntary payment, by realization upon security,
by the exercise of the right of setoff or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action, by the enforcement of any right
under the Credit Documents, or otherwise), which is applicable to the payment of the principal of, or interest on, the Loans or
Commitment Commission, of a sum which with respect to the related sum or sums received by other Lenders is in a greater proportion
than the total of such Obligation then owed and due to such Lender bears to the total of such Obligation then owed and due to all
of the Lenders immediately prior to such receipt, then such Lender receiving such excess payment shall purchase for cash without
recourse or warranty from the other Lenders an interest in the Obligations of the respective Credit Party to such Lenders in such
amount as shall result in a proportional participation by all the Lenders in such amount; provided that if all or any portion
of such excess amount is thereafter recovered from such Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored
to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.


 


(c)         Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, the provisions of the preceding Sections 11.06(a) and (b) shall be subject to the express
provisions of this Agreement which require, or permit, differing payments to be made to Non-Defaulting Lenders as opposed to Defaulting
Lenders.


 


11.07     Calculations;
Computations. (a) The financial statements to be furnished to the Lenders pursuant hereto shall be made and prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States consistently applied throughout the periods involved (except
as set forth in the notes thereto or as otherwise disclosed in writing by the Borrower to the Lenders). In addition, all computations
determining compliance with the Financial Covenants shall utilize accounting principles and policies in conformity with those in
effect on the Borrowing Date (with the foregoing generally accepted accounting principles, subject to the preceding proviso, herein
called “GAAP”), subject, in the case of the unaudited financial statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments
and the absence of footnotes. Unless otherwise noted, all references in this Agreement to “GAAP” shall mean generally
accepted accounting principles as in effect in the United States.


 




    	 	-93-	 



     


    

 


(b)         All
computations of interest for Loans, Commitment Commission and other Fees hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360
days for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such
interest, Commitment Commission or Fees are payable.


 


11.08     Agreement
Binding. The Parent Guarantor, the Borrower and each other Credit Party agree that they shall be bound by the terms of this
Agreement and the obligations and covenants expressed to be binding on each of them under this Agreement even if the terms, covenants
or obligations contained hereunder are inconsistent with, or less favorable to the Parent Guarantor, the Borrower or such Credit
Party (as the case may be) than the Parent Guarantor’s, the Borrower’s or such Credit Party’s rights and obligations
under any other document that they are a party to or are otherwise bound by, including without limitation, the Management Agreements,
notwithstanding that the Lender Creditors are aware of or have been provided with such other document pursuant to this Agreement
or otherwise.


 


11.09     GOVERNING
LAW; SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; VENUE; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. (a) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS AND THE RIGHTS
AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER SHALL, EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN CERTAIN OF THE COLLATERAL VESSEL
MORTGAGES AND OTHER SECURITY DOCUMENTS, BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND BE GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. ANY
LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE

BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY ACCEPTS FOR ITSELF AND IN
RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY, THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS. EACH OF THE PARTIES
TO THIS AGREEMENT FURTHER IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS OUT OF ANY OF THE AFOREMENTIONED COURTS IN ANY SUCH ACTION
OR PROCEEDING BY THE MAILING OF COPIES THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID, TO THE BORROWER AT ITS ADDRESS
SET FORTH ON SCHEDULE VII HERETO, SUCH SERVICE TO BECOME EFFECTIVE 30 DAYS AFTER SUCH MAILING. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE
RIGHT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, ANY LENDER OR THE HOLDER OF ANY NOTE TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER
PERMITTED BY LAW OR TO COMMENCE LEGAL PROCEEDINGS OR OTHERWISE PROCEED AGAINST ANY CREDIT PARTY IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. THE
BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY DESIGNATES, APPOINTS, AUTHORIZES AND EMPOWERS SEWARD & KISSEL LLP, WITH OFFICES CURRENTLY LOCATED
AT ONE BATTERY PARK PLAZA, NEW YORK, NY 10004, ATTENTION: LAWRENCE RUTKOWSKI, AS ITS DESIGNEE, APPOINTEE AND AGENT TO RECEIVE AND

(b)         If,
in connection with any proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination to any of the provisions of this Agreement as contemplated
by clauses (i) through (vii), inclusive, of the first proviso to Section 11.13(a), the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained
but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders whose consent is required (any such Lender, a “Non-Consenting Lender”)
is not obtained, then the Borrower shall have the right, so long as all Non-Consenting Lenders whose individual consent is required
are treated as described in either clauses (i) or (ii) below, to either (i) replace each such Non-Consenting Lender (or, at the
option of the Borrower if the respective Non-Consenting Lender’s consent is required with respect to less than all Loans
(or related Commitments) of such Non-Consenting Lender, to replace only the respective Commitments and/or Loans of the respective
Non-Consenting Lender which gave rise to the need to obtain such Non-Consenting Lender’s individual consent) with one or
more Replacement Lenders pursuant to Section 2.12 so long as at the time of such replacement, each such Replacement Lender consents
to the proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination or (ii) terminate such Non-Consenting Lender’s Commitment (if such
Non-Consenting Lender’s consent is required as a result of its Commitment), and/or repay the outstanding Loans and terminate
any outstanding Commitments of such Non-Consenting Lender which gave rise to the need to obtain such Non-Consenting Lender’s
consent, in accordance with Sections 3.02(b) and/or 4.01(a), provided that, unless the Commitments that are terminated
and/or the Loans that are repaid pursuant to preceding clause (ii) are immediately replaced in full at such time through the
addition of new Lenders or the increase of the Commitments and/or the outstanding Loans of existing Lenders (who in each case must
specifically consent thereto), then in the case of any action pursuant to preceding clause (ii) the Required Lenders (determined
before giving effect to the proposed action) shall specifically consent thereto, provided, further, that in any event
the Borrower shall not have the right to replace a Lender, terminate such Lender’s Commitment or repay such Lender’s
Loan solely as a result of the exercise of such Lender’s rights (and the withholding of any required consent by such Lender)
pursuant to the second proviso to Section 11.13(a).


 


(c)         The
Administrative Agent, the Parent Guarantor and the Borrower may amend any Credit Document to correct administrative errors or omissions,

11.15     Domicile
of Loans. Each Lender may transfer and carry its pro rata portion of the Loans at, to or for the account of any office, Subsidiary

pursuant to this Section 11.15 would, at the time of such transfer, result in increased costs under Section 2.09, 2.10
or 4.04 from those being charged by the respective Lender prior to such transfer, then the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay
such increased costs (although the Borrower shall be obligated to pay any other increased costs of the type described above resulting

11.16     Confidentiality.
(a) Subject to the provisions of clause (b) of this Section 11.16, each Lender agrees that it will not disclose without the prior
consent of the Parent Guarantor (other than to its employees, auditors, advisors or counsel or to another Lender if the Lender
or such Lender’s holding or parent company or board of trustees in its sole discretion determines that any such party should
have access to such information, provided such Persons shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 11.16 to the same extent
as such Lender) any information with respect to the Parent Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries which is now or in the future furnished
pursuant to this Agreement or any other Credit Document, provided that any Lender may disclose any such information (i)
as has become generally available to the public other than by virtue of a breach of this Section 11.16(a) by the respective Lender,
(ii) as may be required in any report, statement or testimony submitted to any municipal, state or Federal regulatory body having
or claiming to have jurisdiction over such Lender or to the Federal Reserve Board or the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
or similar organizations (whether in the United States or elsewhere) or their successors, (iii) as may be required in respect to
any summons or subpoena or in connection with any litigation, (iv) in order to comply with any law, order, regulation or ruling
applicable to such Lender, (v) to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, (vi) to any auditor or professional financial
or legal advisor of such Lender employed in the normal course of its business, (vii) to any branch, Affiliate or Subsidiary of
such Lender or to the parent company, head office or regional office of such Lender in connection with the transactions contemplated
herein and (viii) to any prospective or actual transferee or participant in connection with any contemplated transfer or participation
of any of the Notes or Commitments or any interest therein by such Lender (it being understood that for the purpose of this clause
(viii), other than during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Lender shall use commercially reasonable efforts to apprise
the Parent Guarantor of the potential transferee), provided that such prospective transferee expressly agrees to execute
and does execute (including by way of customary “click through” arrangements) a confidentiality agreement and be bound
by the confidentiality provisions contained in this Section 11.16.


 


(b)         Each
of the Parent Guarantor and the Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that each Lender may share with any of its affiliates any
information related to the Parent Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, any nonpublic customer information
regarding the creditworthiness of the Parent Guarantor or its Subsidiaries), provided such Persons shall be subject to the provisions
of this Section 11.16 to the same extent as such Lender.

11.17     Register.
The Borrower hereby designates the Administrative Agent to serve as the Borrower’s agent, solely for purposes of this Section
11.17, to maintain a register (the “Register”) on which it will record the Commitments from time to time of
each of the Lenders, the Loans made by each of the Lenders and each repayment and prepayment in respect of the principal amount
of the Loans of each Lender. Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation shall not affect the Borrower’s
obligations in respect of such Loans. With respect to any Lender, the transfer of the Commitments of such Lender and the rights
to the principal of, and interest on, any Loan made pursuant to such Commitments shall not be effective until such transfer is
recorded on the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent with respect to ownership of such Commitments and Loans and prior
to such recordation all amounts owing to the transferor with respect to such Commitments and Loans shall remain owing to the transferor.
The registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of any Commitments and Loans shall be recorded by the Administrative
Agent on the Register only upon the acceptance by the Administrative Agent of a properly executed and delivered Assignment and
Assumption Agreement pursuant to Section 11.04(b). Coincident with the delivery of such an Assignment and Assumption Agreement
to the Administrative Agent for acceptance and registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of a Loan, or as soon thereafter
as practicable, the assigning or transferor Lender shall surrender the Note evidencing such Loan, and thereupon one or more new
Notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the assigning or transferor Lender and/or the new Lender. The Borrower
agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities of whatsoever
nature which may be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by the Administrative Agent in performing its duties under this Section
11.17, except to the extent caused by the Administrative Agent’s own gross negligence, willful misconduct or unlawful acts.


 


11.18     Judgment
Currency. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due from the Borrower hereunder
or under any of the Notes in the currency expressed to be payable herein or under the Notes (the “Specified Currency”)
into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange
used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the Specified
Currency with such other currency at the Administrative Agent’s New York office on the Business Day preceding that on which
final judgment is given. The obligations of the Borrower in respect of any sum due to any Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder
or under any Note shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than the Specified Currency, be discharged only to the
extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) of any sum adjudged
to be so due in such other currency, such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) may in accordance with normal
banking procedures purchase the Specified Currency with such other currency; if the amount of the Specified Currency so purchased
is less than the sum originally due to such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the Specified Currency,
the Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such
judgment, to indemnify such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, against such loss, and if the amount of the
Specified Currency so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to any Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in
the Specified Currency, such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, agrees to remit such excess to the Borrower.


 


11.19     Language.
All correspondence, including, without limitation, all notices, reports and/or certificates, delivered by any Credit Party to the
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender shall, unless otherwise agreed by the respective recipients thereof, be
submitted in the English language or, to the extent the original of such document is not in the English language, such document
shall be delivered with a certified English translation thereof.


 




    	 	-99-	 



     


    

 


11.20     Waiver
of Immunity. The Borrower, in respect of itself, each other Credit Party, its and their process agents, and its and their properties
and revenues, hereby irrevocably agrees that, to the extent that the Borrower, any other Credit Party or any of its or their properties
has or may hereafter acquire any right of immunity from any legal proceedings, whether in the United States, any Acceptable Flag
Jurisdiction or elsewhere, to enforce or collect upon the Obligations of the Borrower or any other Credit Party related to or arising
from the transactions contemplated by any of the Credit Documents, including, without limitation, immunity from service of process,
immunity from jurisdiction or judgment of any court or tribunal, immunity from execution of a judgment, and immunity of any of
its property from attachment prior to any entry of judgment, or from attachment in aid of execution upon a judgment, the Borrower,
for itself and on behalf of the other Credit Parties, hereby expressly waives, to the fullest extent permissible under applicable
law, any such immunity, and agrees not to assert any such right or claim in any such proceeding, whether in the United States,
any Acceptable Flag Jurisdiction or elsewhere.


 


11.21     USA
PATRIOT Act Notice. Each Lender hereby notifies each Credit Party that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot
Act (Title III of Pub.: 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot
Act”), it is required to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each Credit Party, which information
includes the name of each Credit Party and other “know your customer” information that will allow such Lender to identify
each Credit Party in accordance with the Patriot Act and anti-money laundering rules
and regulations, and each Credit Party agrees to provide such information from time to time to any Lender.


 


11.22     Severability.
If any provisions of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable: (a) the legality,
validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents shall not be affected
or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable
provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable
provisions; provided that the Lenders shall charge no fee in connection with any such amendment. The invalidity of a provision
in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalid or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.


 


11.23     Flag
Jurisdiction Transfer. In the event that the Borrower desires to implement a Flag Jurisdiction Transfer with respect to a Collateral
Vessel, upon receipt of reasonable advance notice thereof from the Borrower, the Collateral Agent shall use commercially reasonably
efforts to provide, or (as necessary) procure the provision of, all such reasonable assistance as any Credit Party may request
from time to time in relation to (i) the Flag Jurisdiction Transfer, (ii) the related deregistration of the relevant Collateral
Vessel from its previous flag jurisdiction, and (iii) the release and discharge of the related Security Documents; provided
that the relevant Credit Party shall pay all documented out of pocket costs and expenses reasonably incurred by the Collateral
Agent in connection with provision of such assistance. Each Lender hereby consents in connection with any Flag Jurisdiction Transfer
and subject to the satisfaction of the requirements thereof to be satisfied by the relevant Credit Party, to (x) deregister
such Collateral Vessel from its previous flag jurisdiction and (y) release and hereby direct the Collateral Agent to release the
relevant Collateral Vessel Mortgage. Each Lender hereby directs the Collateral Agent, and the Collateral Agent agrees to execute
and deliver or, at the Borrower’s expense, file such documents and perform other actions reasonably necessary to release
the relevant Collateral Vessel Mortgages when and as directed pursuant to this Section 11.23.

Section
12. Parent Guaranty.


 


12.01     Guaranty.
In order to induce the Administrative Agent, the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit hereunder, and to induce
the Other Creditors to enter into Interest Rate Protection Agreements, and in recognition of the direct benefits to be received
by the Parent Guarantor from the proceeds of the Loans, the Parent Guarantor hereby agrees with the Secured Creditors as follows:
the Parent Guarantor hereby and unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to the Secured Creditors the full and prompt payment
when due, whether upon maturity, acceleration or otherwise, of any and all of the Secured Obligations to the Secured Creditors.
This is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. If any or all of the Secured Obligations becomes due and payable hereunder,
the Parent Guarantor, unconditionally and irrevocably, promises to pay such indebtedness to the Administrative Agent and/or the
other Secured Creditors, or order, on demand, together with any and all expenses which may be incurred by the Administrative Agent
and the other Secured Creditors in collecting any of the Secured Obligations. If a claim is ever made upon any Secured Creditor
for repayment or recovery of any amount or amounts received in payment or on account of any of the Secured Obligations and any
of the aforesaid payees repays all or part of said amount by reason of (i) any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative
body having jurisdiction over such payee or any of its property or (ii) any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected
by such payee with any such claimant (including the Borrower), then and in such event the Parent Guarantor agrees that any such
judgment, decree, order, settlement or compromise shall be binding upon the Parent Guarantor, notwithstanding any revocation of
this Parent Guaranty or other instrument evidencing any liability of the Borrower, and the Parent Guarantor shall be and remain
liable to the aforesaid payees hereunder for the amount so repaid or recovered to the same extent as if such amount had never originally
been received by any such payee.


 


12.02     Bankruptcy.
Additionally, the Parent Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to the Secured Creditors the payment of any and all
of the Secured Obligations whether or not due or payable by the Borrower upon the occurrence of any of the events specified in
Section 9.05, and unconditionally, irrevocably, jointly and severally promises to pay such indebtedness to the Secured Creditors,
or order, on demand.


 


12.03     Nature
of Liability. The liability of the Parent Guarantor hereunder is exclusive and independent of any security for or other guaranty
of the Secured Obligations, whether executed by the Parent Guarantor, any other guarantor or by any other party, and the liability
of the Parent Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected or impaired by (a) any direction as to application of payment by the Borrower
or by any other party, or (b) any other continuing or other guaranty, undertaking or maximum liability of a guarantor or of any
other party as to the Secured Obligations, or (c) any payment on or in reduction of any such other guaranty or undertaking, or
(d) any dissolution, termination or increase, decrease or change in personnel by the Borrower, or (e) any payment made to any Secured
Creditor on the Secured Obligations which any such Secured Creditor repays to the Borrower or any other Subsidiary of the Parent
Guarantor pursuant to court order in any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other debtor relief proceeding,
and the Parent Guarantor waives any right to the deferral or modification of its obligations hereunder by reason of any such proceeding,
or (f) any action or inaction of the type described in Section 12.05.


 









    	 	-101-	 



     


    

 


12.04     Independent
Obligation. The obligations of the Parent Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of any other guarantor, any
other party or the Borrower, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against the Parent Guarantor whether
or not action is brought against any other guarantor, any other party or the Borrower and whether or not any other guarantor, any
other party or the Borrower be joined in any such action or actions. The Parent Guarantor waives, to the fullest extent permitted
by law, the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting its liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof. Any payment by
the Borrower or other circumstance which operates to toll any statute of limitations as to the Borrower shall operate to toll the
statute of limitations as to the Parent Guarantor.


 


12.05     Authorization.
The Parent Guarantor authorizes the Secured Creditors without notice or demand (except as shall be required by applicable statute
and cannot be waived), and without affecting or impairing its liability hereunder, from time to time to:


 


(a)         change
the manner, place or terms of payment of, and/or change or extend the time of payment of, renew, increase, accelerate or alter,
any of the Secured Obligations (including any increase or decrease in the principal amount thereof or the rate of interest or fees
thereon), any security therefor, or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof, and this Parent Guaranty
made shall apply to such Secured Obligations as so changed, extended, renewed or altered;


 


(b)         take
and hold security for the payment of the Secured Obligations and sell, exchange, release, impair, surrender, realize upon or otherwise
deal with in any manner and in any order any property by whomsoever at any time pledged or mortgaged to secure, or howsoever securing,
the Secured Obligations or any liabilities (including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof
or hereof, and/or any offset against any thereof;


 


(c)         exercise
or refrain from exercising any rights against the Borrower, any other Credit Party or others or otherwise act or refrain from acting;


 


(d)         release
or substitute any one or more endorsers, guarantors, the Borrower, other Credit Parties or other obligors;


 


(e)         settle
or compromise any of the Secured Obligations, any security therefor or any liability (including any of those hereunder) incurred
directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and may subordinate the payment of all or any part thereof to the payment
of any liability (whether due or not) of the Borrower to its creditors other than the Secured Creditors;


 


(f)          apply
any sums by whomsoever paid or howsoever realized to any liability or liabilities of the Borrower to the Secured Creditors regardless
of what liability or liabilities of the Borrower remain unpaid;


 




    	 	-102-	 



     


    

 


(g)         consent
to or waive any breach of, or any act, omission or default under, this Agreement or any other Credit Document or any of the instruments
or agreements referred to herein or therein, or otherwise amend, modify or supplement this Agreement or any other Credit Document
or any of such other instruments or agreements; and/or


 


(h)         take
any other action which would, under otherwise applicable principles of common law, give rise to a legal or equitable discharge
of the Parent Guarantor from its liabilities under this Parent Guaranty.


 


12.06     Reliance.
It is not necessary for any Secured Creditor to inquire into the capacity or powers of the Parent Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries
or the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on their behalf, and any Secured Obligations made or
created in reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed hereunder.


 


12.07     Subordination.
Any indebtedness of the Borrower now or hereafter owing to the Parent Guarantor is hereby subordinated to the Secured Obligations
of the Borrower owing to the Secured Creditors; and if the Administrative Agent so requests at a time when an Event of Default
exists, all such indebtedness of the Borrower to the Parent Guarantor shall be collected, enforced and received by the Parent Guarantor
for the benefit of the Secured Creditors and be paid over to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Creditors on account
of the Secured Obligations, but without affecting or impairing in any manner the liability of the Parent Guarantor under the other
provisions of this Parent Guaranty. Prior to the transfer by the Parent Guarantor of any note or negotiable instrument evidencing
any such indebtedness of the Borrower to the Parent Guarantor, the Parent Guarantor shall mark such note or negotiable instrument
with a legend that the same is subject to this subordination. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Parent Guarantor
hereby agrees with the Secured Creditors that it will not exercise any right of subrogation which it may at any time otherwise
have as a result of this Parent Guaranty (whether contractual, under Section 509 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise) until all
Secured Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full in cash.


 


12.08     Waiver.
(a)  The Parent Guarantor waives any right (except as shall be required by applicable statute and cannot be waived) to
require any Secured Creditor to (i) proceed against the Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party, (ii) proceed against
or exhaust any security held from the Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party or (iii) pursue any other remedy in any
Secured Creditor’s power whatsoever. The Parent Guarantor waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of the
Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party, other than payment in full in cash of the Secured Obligations, based on or arising
out of the disability of the Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party, or the validity, legality or unenforceability of
the Secured Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of the Borrower other
than payment in full in cash of the Secured Obligations. The Secured Creditors may, at their election, foreclose on any security
held by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Creditor by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, whether or not every
aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable (to the extent such sale is permitted by applicable law), or exercise any other
right or remedy the Secured Creditors may have against the Borrower, or any other party, or any security, without affecting or
impairing in any way the liability of the Parent Guarantor hereunder except to the extent the Secured Obligations have been paid
in cash. The Parent Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election by the Secured Creditors, even though such election
operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of the Parent Guarantor against
the Borrower, or any other party or any security.


 




    	 	-103-	 



     


    

 


(b)         The
Parent Guarantor waives all presentments, demands for performance, protests and notices, including, without limitation, notices
of nonperformance, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of this Parent Guaranty, and notices of the existence,
creation or incurring of new or additional Secured Obligations. The Parent Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping
itself informed of the Borrower’s financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of
nonpayment of the Secured Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks which the Parent Guarantor assumes and incurs
hereunder, and agrees that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of the other Secured Creditors shall have any duty to advise
the Parent Guarantor of information known to them regarding such circumstances or risks.


 


12.09     Payment.
All payments made by the Parent Guarantor pursuant to this Section 12 shall be made in Dollars. All payments made by the Parent
Guarantor pursuant to this Section 12 will be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense.


 


12.10     Keepwell.
Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such
funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Guarantor to honor all of its obligations under the guarantee
contained herein in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under
this Section 12.10 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under
this Section 12.10, or otherwise under this Agreement, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent

SCHEDULE IV-A


 


REQUIRED INSURANCE


 


Insurance to be maintained on each Collateral Vessel:


 


(a)          The
Parent Guarantor shall, and shall cause each Credit Party to, at the Parent Guarantor’s expense, keep each Collateral Vessel
insured with insurers and protection and indemnity clubs or associations of internationally recognized reputation, and placed in
such markets, on such terms and conditions, and through brokers, reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent (it being understood
that AON, Marsh and JLT Specialty USA are satisfactory) and under forms of policies approved by the Collateral Agent against the
risks indicated below and such other risks as the Collateral Agent may reasonably specify from time to time; however, in no case
shall the Collateral Agent specify insurance in excess of the customary insurances purchased by first-class owners of comparable
vessels:


 


(i)          Marine
and war risk, including terrorism, confiscation, London Blocking and Trapping Addendum and Missing Collateral Vessel Clause, hull
and machinery insurance, hull interest insurance and freight interest insurance, together in an amount in U.S. dollars at all times
equal to or greater than the greater of (x) its Appraised Value and (y) 120% of the aggregate principal amount of the Loans outstanding
under the Term Loan Facility. The insured value for hull and machinery required under this clause (i) for each Collateral Vessel
shall at all times be in an amount equal to the greater of (x) eighty per cent (80%) of the Appraised Value of the Collateral Vessel
and (y) the aggregate principal amount of all Loans outstanding under the Term Loan Facility, and the remaining machine and war
risk insurance required by this clause (i) may be taken out as hull and freight interest insurance.


 


(ii)         Marine
and war risk protection and indemnity insurance or equivalent insurance (including coverage against liability for crew, fines and
penalties arising out of the operation of the Collateral Vessel, insurance against liability arising out of pollution, spillage
or leakage, and workmen’s compensation or longshoremen’s and harbor workers’ insurance as shall be required by
applicable law) in such amounts approved by the Collateral Agent; provided, however, that insurance against liability under
law or international convention arising out of pollution, spillage or leakage shall be in an amount not less than the greater of:


 


(y)          the
maximum amount reasonably available from the International Group of Protection and Indemnity Associations (the “International
Group”) or alternatively such sources of pollution, spillage or leakage coverage as are commercially available in any
absence of such coverage by the International Group as shall be carried by prudent shipowners engaged in similar trades; and


 


(z)          the
amounts required by the laws or regulations of the United States of America or any applicable jurisdiction in which the Collateral
Vessel may be trading from time to time.


 




    	 



    	




    

 


Schedule IV-A


Page
2


 


(iii)        Mortgagee’s
interest insurance on such conditions as the Collateral Agent may reasonably require and mortgagee’s interest insurance for
pollution risks as from time to time agreed, satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and for an amount in U.S. dollars approved by
the Collateral Agent but not being less than 110 % of the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Loans outstanding pursuant to
the Credit Agreement, the Parent Guarantor, the Borrower and the Collateral Vessel Owner having no interest or entitlement in respect
of such policies; all such mortgagee’s interest insurance cover shall be obtained directly by the Collateral Agent and the
Collateral Agent undertakes to use its best endeavors to match the premium level that the Parent Guarantor would have paid if they
had arranged such cover on such conditions (as demonstrated by the reasonable satisfaction of the Collateral Agent), provided
that in no event shall the Parent Guarantor be required to reimburse the Collateral Agent for any such costs in excess of the premium
level then available to the Collateral Agent in the market.


 


(iv)        While
the Collateral Vessel is idle or laid up, at the option of the Parent Guarantor or the Borrower and in lieu of the above-mentioned
marine and war risk hull insurance, port risk insurance insuring the Collateral Vessel against the usual risks encountered by like
vessels under similar circumstances.


 


(b)          The
marine and commercial war-risk insurance required in this Schedule IV-A for the Collateral Vessel shall have deductibles and franchises
in amounts reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent.


 


All insurance maintained hereunder shall
be primary insurance without right of contribution against any other insurance maintained by the Collateral Agent. Each policy
of marine and war risk hull and machinery insurance with respect to each Collateral Vessel shall, if so requested by the Collateral
Agent, provide that the Collateral Agent shall be a named insured in its capacity as mortgagee and as loss payee. Each entry in
a marine and war risk protection indemnity club with respect to each Collateral Vessel shall note the interest of the Collateral
Agent. The Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each of their respective successors and assigns shall not be responsible
for any premiums, club calls, assessments or any other obligations or for the representations and warranties made therein by the
Parent Guarantor, any of the Parent Guarantor’s Subsidiaries or any other Person. In addition, the Parent Guarantor shall
reimburse the Administrative Agent for the commercially reasonable cost of Mortgagee’s interest insurance and MAPP which
the Administrative Agent will take out on the Collateral Vessel upon such terms and in such amounts as the Administrative Agent
shall deem appropriate.


 


(c)          The
Collateral Agent shall from time to time obtain a detailed report signed by a firm of marine insurance brokers acceptable to the
Collateral Agent with respect to P & I entry, the hull and machinery and war risk insurance carried and maintained on the Collateral
Vessel, together with their opinion as to the adequacy thereof and its compliance with the provisions of this Schedule IV-A. At
the Parent Guarantor’s expense, the Parent Guarantor will instruct its insurance broker (which, for the avoidance of doubt
shall be a different insurance broker from the firm of marine insurance brokers referred to in the immediately preceding sentence)
and the P & I club or association providing P & I insurance referred to in part (a)(ii) of this Schedule IV-A, to agree
to advise the Collateral Agent by electronic mail of any expiration, termination, alteration or cancellation of any policy, any
default in the payment of any premium and of any other act or omission on the part of the Parent Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries
of which the Parent Guarantor has knowledge and which might invalidate or render unenforceable, in whole or in part, any insurance
on the Collateral Vessel, and to provide an opportunity of paying any such unpaid premium or call, such right being exercisable
by the Collateral Agent on the Collateral Vessel on an individual and not on a fleet basis. In addition, the Parent Guarantor shall
promptly provide the Collateral Agent with any information which the Collateral Agent reasonably requests for the purpose of obtaining
or preparing any report from the Collateral Agent’s independent marine insurance consultant as to the adequacy of the insurances
effected or proposed to be effected in accordance with this Schedule IV-A as of the date hereof or in connection with any renewal
thereof, and the Parent Guarantor shall upon demand indemnify the Collateral Agent in respect of all reasonable fees and other
expenses incurred by or for the account of the Collateral Agent in connection with any such report, provided that the Collateral
Agent shall be entitled to such indemnity only for one such report during a period of twelve months.


 




    	 		 



     


    

 


Schedule IV-A

The underwriters or brokers shall furnish
the Collateral Agent with a letter or letters of undertaking to the effect that:


 


(i)          they
will hold the instruments of insurance, and the benefit of the insurances thereunder, to the order of the Collateral Agent in accordance
with the terms of the loss payable clause referred to in the Assignment of Insurances;


 


(ii)         they
will have endorsed on each and every policy as and when the same is issued the loss payable clause, to be in the excess of $2,500,000,
and the notice of assignment referred to in the Assignment of Insurances; and


 


(iii)        they
will not set off against any sum recoverable in respect of a claim against any Collateral Vessel under the said underwriters or
brokers or any other Person in respect of any other vessel nor cancel the said insurances by reason of non-payment of such premiums
or other amounts.


 


All policies of insurance required hereby
shall provide for not less than 14 days prior written notice (seven days in respect of war risks) to be received by the Collateral
Agent of the termination or cancellation of the insurance evidenced thereby. All policies of insurance maintained pursuant to this
Schedule IV-A for risks covered by insurance other than that provided by a P & I Club shall contain provisions waiving underwriters’
rights of subrogation thereunder against any assured named in such policy and any assignee of said assured, only to the extent
such underwriters agree to so waive rights of subrogation (provided that it is understood and agreed that the Borrower shall
use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such waivers). The Parent Guarantor shall, and shall cause each Credit Party to,
assign to the Collateral Agent its full rights under any policies of insurance in respect of each Collateral Vessel in accordance
with the terms contained herein (and, for the avoidance of doubt, such assignments shall include any additional value of any insurance
that exceeds the values expressly required herein in respect of each Collateral Vessel). The Parent Guarantor agrees that it shall,
and shall cause each Credit Party to, deliver unless the insurances by their terms provide that they cannot cease (by reason of
nonrenewal or otherwise) without the Collateral Agent being informed and having the right to continue the insurance by paying any
premiums not paid by the Parent Guarantor, receipts showing payment of premiums for Required Insurance and also of demands from
the Collateral Vessel’s P & I underwriters to the Collateral Agent at least two (2) days before the risk in question
commences.

(d)          Unless
the Collateral Agent shall otherwise agree, all amounts of whatsoever nature payable under any insurance must be payable to the
Collateral Agent for distribution first to itself and thereafter to the Parent Guarantor or others as their interests may appear,
provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, until otherwise required by the Collateral Agent by notice
to the underwriters upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default hereunder, (i) amounts payable under any insurance
on the Collateral Vessel with respect to protection and indemnity risks may be paid directly to (x) the Parent Guarantor to reimburse
it for any loss, damage or expense incurred by it and covered by such insurance or (y) the Person to whom any liability covered
by such insurance has been incurred, and (ii) amounts payable under any insurance with respect to the Collateral Vessel involving
any damage to the Collateral Vessel not constituting an Event of Loss, may be paid by underwriters directly for the repair, salvage
or other charges involved or, if the Parent Guarantor shall have first fully repaired the damage or paid all of the salvage or
other charges, may be paid to the Parent Guarantor as reimbursement therefor; provided, however, that if such amounts (including
any franchise or deductible) are in excess of U.S. $2,500,000, the underwriters shall not make such payment without first obtaining
the written consent thereto of the Collateral Agent and the loss payable clauses pertaining to such insurances shall be endorsed
to that effect.


 


(e)          All
amounts paid to the Collateral Agent in respect of any insurance on the Collateral Vessel shall be disposed of as follows (after
deduction of the expenses of the Collateral Agent in collecting such amounts):


 


(i)          any
amount which might have been paid at the time, in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (d) above, directly to the Parent
Guarantor or others shall be paid by the Collateral Agent to, or as directed by, the Parent Guarantor;


 


(ii)         all
amounts paid to the Collateral Agent in respect of an Event of Loss of the Collateral Vessel shall be applied by the Collateral
Agent to the payment of the Financial Indebtedness hereby secured pursuant to Section 4.02(b) of the Credit Agreement; and


 


(iii) all
other amounts paid to the Collateral Agent in respect of any insurance on the Collateral Vessel may, in the Collateral Agent’s
sole discretion, be held and applied to the prepayment of the Obligations or to making of needed repairs or other work on the Collateral
Vessel, or to the payment of other claims incurred by the Parent Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries relating to the Collateral
Vessel, or may be paid to the Borrower or whosoever may be entitled thereto.


 


(f)        In
the event that any claim or lien is asserted against any Collateral Vessel for loss, damage or expense which is covered by insurance
required hereunder and it is necessary for the Parent Guarantor to obtain a bond or supply other security to prevent arrest of
such Collateral Vessel or to release the Collateral Vessel from arrest on account of such claim or lien, the Collateral Agent,
on request of the Parent Guarantor, may, in the sole discretion of the Collateral Agent, assign to any Person, firm or corporation
executing a surety or guarantee bond or other agreement to save or release the Collateral Vessel from such arrest, all right, title
and interest of the Collateral Agent in and to said insurance covering said loss, damage or expense, as collateral security to
indemnify against liability under said bond or other agreement.

(g)        The
Parent Guarantor shall deliver to the Collateral Agent certified copies and, whenever so reasonably requested by the Collateral
Agent, if available to the Parent Guarantor, the originals of all certificates of entry, cover notes, binders, evidences of insurance
and policies and all endorsements and riders amendatory thereof in respect of insurance maintained pursuant to Section 7.03 of
the Credit Agreement and this Schedule IV-A for the purpose of inspection or safekeeping, or, alternatively, satisfactory letters
of undertaking from the broker holding the same. The Collateral Agent shall be under no duty or obligation to verify the adequacy
or existence of any such insurance or any such policies, endorsement or riders.


 


(h)          The
Parent Guarantor will not, and will not permit any Credit Party to, execute or permit or willingly allow to be done any act by
which any insurance may be suspended, impaired or cancelled, and that it will not permit or allow any Collateral Vessel to undertake
any voyage or run any risk or transport any cargo which may not be permitted by the policies in force, without having previously
notified the Collateral Agent in writing and insured such Collateral Vessel by additional coverage to extend to such voyages, risks,
passengers or cargoes.


 


(i)           In
case any underwriter proposes to pay less on any claim than the amount thereof, the Parent Guarantor shall forthwith inform the
Collateral Agent, and if a Default, Event of Default or an Event of Loss has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent shall
have the exclusive right to negotiate and agree to any compromise.


 


(j)           The
Parent Guarantor will, and will cause each Credit Party to, comply with and satisfy all of the provisions of any applicable law,
convention, regulation, proclamation or order concerning financial responsibility for liabilities imposed on the Parent Guarantor,
its Subsidiaries or the Collateral Vessels with respect to pollution by any state or nation or political subdivision thereof and
will maintain all certificates or other evidence of financial responsibility as may be required by any such law, convention, regulation,
proclamation or order with respect to the trade in which the Collateral Vessels are from time to time engaged and the cargo carried
by it.
