    At the end of the initial fixed charter period expiring on January 4, 2009,
either we or the Charterer may extend the charters on a vessel-by-vessel basis for an
additional 30-month period expiring on July 4, 2011. If the Charterer extends the
charter for this 30-monthly period, we would be eligible to earn Additional Hire in
addition to Basic Hire. If the Company extends the Charter for this 30-month period,
the Company would not be eligible to earn Additional Hire during this period. There can
be no assurance that the Charterer will exercise any option.(2)
    
    This period is the first for which the Charterer has the option to extend the
charters if the option described in Footnote 1 above is exercised. We will not be
eligible to receive Additional Hire over these periods. There can be no assurance that


    
    the Basic Hire is paid on all of our Vessels, all of our Vessels are on hire for 360
days per fiscal year and the options to extend the charters are exercised by the
Charterers;
    
    no Additional Hire is paid on our two Panamax Tankers or our two Product Tankers that
are eligible to earn Additional Hire other than the $1.3 million earned in the first six
months of 2007;
    
    the guaranteed Additional Hire is paid based on the two current sub-charters with Sun
International which will expire within 30 days of September 30, 2007 and within 30 days of
July 31, 2008;
    
    Additional Hire of approximately $350,000 per Vessel per quarter is paid on the V-MAX
Vessels upon commencement of the Litasco sub-charters, assuming that the V-MAX Vessels
operate for 90 days per quarter;
    
    the V-MAX Vessels are returned on the notional termination dates of the sub-charter
within the 60-day delivery window;
    
    we have no cash expenses or liabilities other than the ship management agreements, our
current directors fees, the current salaries and benefits of our employees, currently
anticipated administrative and other expenses and interest under our secured term loan
facility;
    
    we pay no U.S. federal income taxes and minimal U.S. state and payroll taxes;
    
    we have no requirement to fund any required capital expenditures with respect to our Vessels;
    
    we do not suffer the loss or constructive loss of any of our Vessels;
    
    no material cash reserves or requirements are established by the actions of our Board of Directors or management;
    
    we remain in compliance with our secured term loan facility which requires, among other
things, that the fair market value of our Vessels exceeds 140% of our borrowings under the
facility (or 125% if the loan amount at the time of such dividend all of our Vessels are on
time charter for a remaining period of at least 12 months) in order to pay dividends; and
    
    we do not issue any additional common shares or other securities or borrow any
additional funds.
  We cannot assure you that our dividends will in fact be equal to the amounts set forth below.
The amount of future dividends set forth in the table below represents only an estimate of future
dividends based on the list of assumptions set forth above. The amount of future dividends, if
any, could be affected by various factors, including the loss of a Vessel, required capital
expenditures, cash reserves established by our Board of Directors, increased or unanticipated
expenses, a change in our dividend policy, increased borrowings or future issuances of securities,
many of which will be beyond our control. As a result, the amount of dividends actually paid may
vary from the amounts currently estimated and such variations may be material. There can be no
assurance that any dividends will be paid. See Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures
about Market Risk  We cannot assure you that we will pay any dividends and We may not be able
to re-charter our Vessels profitably after they expire, unless they are extended at the option of

    Basic Hire revenues for 2008 and 2009 assume that options available under the charter
contracts are exercised by the Charterer. Basic Hire reflected in the above table includes
$700,000 of revenue in 2008 and $28.8 million of revenue in 2009 arising from such option
exercises.(2)
    
    The Additional Hire revenue associated with the Sun International sub-charters is
guaranteed, meaning that we will be paid the Additional Hire revenue by Concordia whether
the two V-MAX tankers are in service or not in service, during the terms of the Sun
International sub-charters. The sub-charter with Sun International for the Stena Victory
is due to expire within 30 days of September 30, 2007 and the sub-charter with Sun
International for the Stena Visionis due to expire within 30 days of July 31, 2008. Our
estimate above reflects guaranteed V-MAX Additional Hire revenue from Sun International
sub-charters through September 30, 2007 and July 31, 2008, respectively.(3)
    
    Immediately following the expiration of each sub-charter with Sun International, we
expect the applicable V-MAX tanker to commence operating under a new sub-charter agreement
with Litasco. During the term of these new sub-charters, we will continue to earn
guaranteed Basic Hire from Concordia and we will also earn Additional Hire under the profit
sharing provisions of the Charters. Additional Hire for the V-MAX tankers under the new
sub-charters will be based on a fixed time charter hire payable by Litasco to Concordia
under the sub-charters and the Additional Hire is not exposed to fluctuations in spot
market rates. Additional Hire revenues under these sub-charters are not guaranteed,
meaning that we will earn Additional Hire only if the Vessel is in service. Our estimated
cash available for dividends includes our estimated Additional Hire for the Stena Victory,
assuming that the Litasco sub-charter for that Vessel begins on October 1, 2007. Our
estimated cash available for dividends includes our estimated Additional Hire for the Stena
Victory, assuming that the Litasco sub-charter for that Vessel begins on August 1, 2008.
Once the new sub-charters commence, the profit sharing provisions in the Concordia charters
are expected to result in Additional Hire revenue of approximately $350,000 per Vessel per
quarter, based on the time charter rates under the sub-charters and assuming the Vessels
operate 90 days per quarter, in addition to the guaranteed Basic Hire.(4)
    
    Reflects Additional Hire revenues actually earned by our two Panamax tankers and our
two Product tankers that are eligible to earn Additional Hire. For the six months ended
June 30, 2007, we have received $1.3 million of Additional Hire relating to these four
Vessels. No estimates have been made for the remainder of 2007, 2008 and 2009 as these
Additional Hire revenues are not contractually guaranteed via long-term sub-charters.(5)
    
    General and administrative expenses for 2007 through 2009 do not include any cost for
executive bonuses, which are primarily performance based.(6)
    
    Cash interest costs reflect the benefit of approximately $1.0 million per year from the
2005 termination of an interest rate swap. The interest expense for each year will be
approximately $13.3 million ($229.5 million at 5.7325%). Estimated interest expense for
2007 is shown net of interest income earned through June 30, 2007.(7)
    
    Based on 15,500,000 issued and outstanding common shares.  27
