calculate TCE by taking revenues earned on the voyage and deducting the voyage costs and dividing by the actual number of voyage days. For vessels on bareboat charter, for which we do not incur either voyage or operation costs, we calculate TCE by
taking revenues earned on the charter and adding a representative amount for vessel operating expenses. TCE differs from average daily revenue earned in that TCE is based on revenues before commissions and does not take into account off-hire days.

Risk Factors

Risks Related To Our Industry

The tanker industry
is highly dependent upon the crude oil and petroleum products industries.

The employment of our vessels is driven by the availability
of and demand for crude oil and petroleum products, the availability of modern tanker capacity and the scrapping, conversion or loss of older vessels. Historically, the world oil and petroleum markets have been volatile and cyclical as a result of
the many conditions and events that affect the supply, price, production and transport of oil, including:



| |  |  | increases and decreases in the demand for crude oil and petroleum products;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | availability of crude oil and petroleum products;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | demand for crude oil and petroleum product substitutes, such as natural gas, coal, hydroelectric power and other alternate sources of energy that may, among other
things, be affected by environmental regulation;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | actions taken by OPEC and major oil producers and refiners;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | global and regional political and economic conditions;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | developments in international trade;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------



| |  |  | international trade sanctions;
| | - |  | ------------------------------



| |  |  | environmental factors;
| | - |  | ----------------------



| |  |  | weather; and
| | - |  | ------------



| |  |  | changes in seaborne and other transportation patterns.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------

The economic expansion in the U.S., Chinese and Indian economies, and the improved performance of the Japanese economy, with their impact on Pacific Rim and Latin American activity, maintained, albeit at a slower
pace, the strong growth in demand for crude oil and oil products seen since 2003, 2004 and 2005. The strong demand for crude oil and oil products was also supported by seasonal and environmental factors and the need to restore depleted oil
inventories in the U.S. and the other major Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development importing countries. However, if the production of and demand for crude oil and petroleum products slow in the future, a corresponding decrease in
shipments of these products could have an impact on the employment of our vessels and the charter rates that they command. In particular, the charter rates that we earn from our spot charters, contracts of affreightment and vessels employed in pools
may decline. In addition, overbuilding of tankers has, in the past, led to a decline in charter rates. If the supply of tanker capacity increases and the demand for tanker capacity does not, the charter rates paid for our vessels could materially
decline. The resulting decline in revenues could have a material adverse effect on our revenues and profitability.

The global tanker industry is highly
competitive.

We operate our fleet in a highly competitive market. Our competitors include owners of VLCCs, Suezmax, Aframax, Panamax
and Handysize tankers. These competitors include other independent tanker companies, as well as



5

##### Table of Contents

national and independent oil companies, some of whom have greater financial strength and capital resources than we do. Competition in the tanker industry is
intense and depends on price, location, size, age, condition, and the acceptability of the available tankers and their operators to potential charterers.

Terrorist attacks and international hostilities can affect the tanker industry, which could adversely affect our business.

An attack like those of September 11, 2001 or longer-lasting wars or international hostilities, including those currently in Afghanistan and Iraq could damage the world economy, adversely affect the availability of and demand for crude
oil and petroleum products and negatively affect our investment and our customers investment decisions over an extended period of time. We conduct our vessel operations internationally, and our business, financial condition and results of
operations may be adversely affected by changing economic, political and government conditions in the countries and regions where our vessels are employed. Moreover, we operate in a sector of the economy that is likely to be adversely impacted by
the effects of political instability, terrorist or other attacks, war or international hostilities.

As our current time charters expire, new charters
at attractive rates may not be available.

In 2006, we derived approximately 42% of our revenues from time charters, as compared to 47%
in 2005. As the current period charters of our vessels expire, it may not be possible to re-charter these vessels on a period basis at attractive rates. If attractive period charter opportunities are not available, we would seek to charter our
vessels on the spot market. Charter rates in the spot market are subject to significant fluctuations, and tankers traded in the spot market may experience substantial off-hire time.

If our exposure to the spot market or contracts of affreightment increases, our revenues could suffer and our expenses could increase.

The spot market for crude oil and petroleum product tankers is highly competitive. As a result of any increased reliance on the spot market, we may
experience a lower utilization of our fleet, leading to a decline in operating revenue. Moreover, to the extent our vessels are employed in the spot market, both our revenue from vessels and our operating costs, specifically, our voyage expenses
will be more significantly impacted by increases in the cost of bunkers (fuel). Unlike time charters in which the charterer bears all of the bunker costs, in spot market voyages we bear the bunker charges as part of our voyage costs. As a result,
while historical increases in bunker charges are factored into the prospective freight rates for spot market voyages periodically announced by WorldScale Association (London) Limited and similar organizations, increases in bunker charges in any
given period could have a material adverse effect on our cash flow and results of operations for the period in which the increase occurs. In addition, to the extent we employ our vessels pursuant to contracts of affreightment or under pooling
arrangements, the rates that we earn from the charterers under those contracts may be subject to reduction based on market conditions, which could lead to a decline in our operating revenue.

Oil industry developments, competition among tanker operators and evolving regulatory requirements will compel us to renew our fleet and make ongoing capital
expenditures.

During the down cycle in the oil industry in late 1998 and 1999, the oil industry experienced consolidation with the
announcement or completion of several combinations among major oil companies, as well as consolidations involving tanker operators. As a result, the major oil companies have started to focus their chartering requirements with a smaller number of
shipping companies that possess large and diversified modern fleets that are compliant with the increasingly stringent environmental regulations applicable to tanker operators.

To address these developments, we intend to expand and further renew our fleet by pursuing the acquisition or construction of additional vessels or
fleets or tanker companies that are complementary to our existing operations, assuming we have the financial resources and debt capacity to do so. In addition, we are exploring opportunities in the liquefied natural gas (LNG) market to expand our
exposure in the overall energy sector. However, the worlds leading tanker and LNG shipyards have little or no additional capacity until the middle of 2010 and we may not be able to purchase or construct additional vessels, other than those
currently on order, on commercially acceptable terms. If we seek to expand through the acquisition of other tanker or LNG companies, we face numerous challenges, including:



| |  |  | difficulties in the assimilation of acquired operations;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

| |  |  | diversion of managements attention from other business concerns;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | assumption of potentially unknown material liabilities or contingent liabilities of acquired companies;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | competition from other potential acquirers, some of which have greater financial resources;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | impairment of acquired assets, which would reduce future reported earnings; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | potential loss of clients or key employees of acquired companies.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------

We cannot assure you that we will be able to integrate successfully the operations, personnel, services or vessels that we might acquire in the future, and our failure to do so could adversely affect our
profitability.

We are subject to regulation and liability under environmental laws that could require significant expenditures and affect our cash
flows and net income.

Our business and the operation of our vessels are subject to extensive international, national and local
environmental and health and safety laws and regulations in the jurisdictions in which our vessels operate, as well as in the country or countries of their registration. In addition, major oil companies chartering our vessels impose, from time to
time, their own environmental and health and safety requirements. We have incurred significant expenses in order to comply with these regulations and requirements, including the costs of ship modifications and changes in operating procedures,
additional maintenance and inspection requirements, contingency arrangements for potential spills, insurance coverage and full implementation of the new security-on-vessels requirements which came into effect on July 1, 2004.

In particular, certain international, national and local laws and regulations require, among other things, double hull construction for new tankers, as
well as the retrofitting or phasing-out of single hull tankers based on each vessels date of build, gross tonnage (a unit of measurement for the total enclosed spaces within a vessel) and/or hull configuration. We have sold all our vessels
which were not double hull, except for the Vergina II which is being converted to a double hull vessel. All of the newbuildings we have contracted to purchase are double-hulled. However, because environmental regulations may become stricter, future
regulations may limit our ability to do business, increase our operating costs and/or force the early retirement of our vessels, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

International, national and local laws imposing liability for oil spills are also becoming increasingly stringent. Some impose joint, several, and in
some cases, unlimited liability on owners, operators and charterers regardless of fault. We could be held liable as an owner, operator or charterer under these laws. In addition, under certain circumstances, we could also be held accountable under
these laws for the acts or omissions of Tsakos Shipping & Trading (Tsakos Shipping) or Tsakos Energy Management, members of the Tsakos Group that provide technical and commercial management services for our vessels and us, or
others in the management or operation of our vessels. Although we currently maintain, and plan to continue to maintain, for each of our vessels pollution liability coverage in the amount of $1 billion per incident (the maximum amount available), a
catastrophic spill could exceed the insurance coverage we have available, and result in our having to liquidate assets to pay claims. In addition, we may be required to contribute to funds established by regulatory authorities for the compensation
of oil pollution damage or provide financial assurances for oil spill liability to regulatory authorities.

Maritime disasters and other operational risks may adversely impact our reputation, financial condition and results of
operations.

The operation of ocean-going vessels has an inherent risk of maritime disaster, environmental mishaps, cargo and property
losses or damage and business interruptions caused by, among others:



| |  |  | mechanical failure;
| | - |  | -------------------



| |  |  | human error;
| | - |  | ------------



| |  |  | labor strikes;
| | - |  | --------------



| |  |  | adverse weather conditions;
| | - |  | ---------------------------



| |  |  | vessel off hire periods;
| | - |  | ------------------------



| |  |  | regulatory delays; and
| | - |  | ----------------------



| |  |  | political action, civil conflicts, terrorism and piracy in countries where vessel operations are conducted, vessels are registered or from which spare parts and
provisions are sourced and purchased.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Any of these circumstances could adversely affect our operations, result in loss
of revenues or increased costs and adversely affect our profitability and our ability to perform our charters. The events of September 11, 2001 led to increases in our insurance premium rates and the implementation of special war
risk premiums for certain trading routes. The more recent natural disasters, such as the hurricanes striking the United States, have led to yet further increases. For 2006-2007, our P&I club insurance premiums increased for several of our
vessels by approximately 7%, but for others the increase was minimal. Our hull and machinery insurance premiums also increased in certain cases by 9%, but in others by less than 3%. Increases of up to 2% for P&I club insurance premiums and up to
10% for hull and machinery insurance premiums are expected for 2007-2008. In addition, war risk coverage for vessels operating in certain geographical areas has doubled, but this type of coverage represents a relatively small portion of
our total insurance premiums. These increases in insurance rates would adversely affect our profitability.

Our vessels could be arrested at the request
of third parties.

Under general maritime law in many jurisdictions, crew members, tort claimants, vessel mortgagees, suppliers of
goods and services and other claimants may lien a vessel for unsatisfied debts, claims or damages. In many jurisdictions a maritime lien holder may enforce its lien by arresting a vessel through court process. In some jurisdictions, under the
extended sister ship theory of liability, a claimant may arrest not only the vessel with respect to which the claimants maritime lien has arisen, but also any associated vessel under common ownership or control. While in some jurisdictions
which have adopted this doctrine, liability for damages is limited in scope and would only extend to a company and its ship owning subsidiaries, we cannot assure you that liability for damages caused by some other vessel determined to be under
common ownership or control with our vessels would not be asserted against us.

Our vessels may be requisitioned by governments without adequate
compensation.

A government could requisition or seize our vessels. Under requisition for title, a government takes control of a vessel
and becomes its owner. Under requisition for hire, a government takes control of a vessel and effectively becomes its charterer at dictated charter rates. Generally, requisitions occur during periods of war or emergency. Although we would be
entitled to compensation in the event of a requisition, the amount and timing of payment would be uncertain.

Risks Related To Our Business

We depend on companies that are part of the Tsakos Group to manage our business.

We do not have the
employee infrastructure to manage our operations and have no physical assets except our vessels and the newbuildings that we have under contract. We have engaged Tsakos Energy Management to perform all of our executive functions. Tsakos Energy
Management directly provides us with financial, accounting and other back-office services, including acting as our liaison with the New York Stock Exchange and the Bermuda Stock Exchange. Tsakos Energy Management, in turn, oversees and subcontracts
commercial management, day-to-day fleet technical management, such as crewing, chartering and vessel purchase and sale functions, to Tsakos Shipping, one of the worlds largest independent tanker managers. As a result, we depend upon the
continued services of Tsakos Energy Management and Tsakos Energy Management depends on the continued services of Tsakos Shipping.

We
derive significant benefits from our relationship with the Tsakos Group, including purchasing discounts to which we otherwise would not have access. We would be materially adversely affected if either Tsakos Energy Management or Tsakos Shipping
becomes unable or unwilling to continue providing services for our benefit at the level of quality they have provided such services in the past and at comparable costs as they have charged in the past. If we were required to employ a ship management
company other than Tsakos Energy Management, we believe our access to world-class charterers could be diminished, our management costs could increase and our profitability could be adversely affected.

Tsakos Energy Management and Tsakos Shipping are privately held companies and there is little or no publicly available information about them.

The ability of Tsakos Energy Management and Tsakos Shipping to continue providing services for our benefit will depend in part on their own financial
strength. Circumstances beyond our knowledge or control could impair their financial strength and, because both of these companies are privately held, it is unlikely that information about their financial strength would become public unless these
companies began to default on their obligations. As a result, an investor in our common shares might have little advance warning of problems affecting Tsakos Energy Management or Tsakos Shipping, even though these problems could have a material
adverse effect on us.

Tsakos Energy Management has the right to terminate its management agreement with us, and Tsakos Shipping has the right to
terminate its contract with Tsakos Energy Management.

Tsakos Energy Management may terminate its management agreement with us at any
time upon one years notice. In addition, if even one director were to be elected to our board without having been recommended by our existing board, Tsakos Energy Management would have the right to terminate the management agreement on 10
days notice. If Tsakos Energy Management terminates the agreement for this reason, we would be obligated to pay Tsakos Energy Management the present discounted value of all payments that would have otherwise become due under the management
agreement until June 30 in the tenth year following the date of the termination plus the average of the incentive awards previously paid to Tsakos Energy Management multiplied by ten. A termination as of December 31, 2006 would have
resulted in a payment of approximately $106 million.

Tsakos Energy Managements contract with Tsakos Shipping may be terminated by
either party upon six months notice and would terminate automatically upon termination of our management agreement with Tsakos Energy Management.

Our ability to pursue legal remedies against Tsakos Energy Management and Tsakos Shipping is very limited.

In the event
Tsakos Energy Management breached its management agreement with us, we could bring a lawsuit against Tsakos Energy Management. However, because we are not ourselves party to a contract with Tsakos Shipping, it may be impossible for us to sue Tsakos
Shipping for breach of its obligations under its contract with Tsakos Energy Management, and Tsakos Energy Management, which is an affiliate of Tsakos Shipping, would probably have no incentive to sue Tsakos Shipping. Tsakos Energy Management is a
company with no substantial assets and no income other than the income it derives under our management agreement. Therefore, it is unlikely that we would be able to obtain any meaningful recovery if we were to sue Tsakos Energy Management or Tsakos
Shipping on contractual grounds.

Tsakos Shipping manages other tankers and could experience conflicts of interests in performing obligations owed to us
and the operators of the other tankers.

Tsakos Shipping manages three VLCC tankers, two double-hull and one single-hull, that operate
under long term charters, plus four other tankers aged over twenty years, in addition to the vessels that it manages for us. These vessels are operated by the same group of Tsakos Shipping employees that manage our vessels, and Tsakos Shipping has
advised us that its employees manage these vessels on an ownership neutral basis; that is, without regard to who owns them. Due to their age and design, the tankers that are managed by Tsakos Shipping primarily serve a different market
than the market served by our vessels, however, it is possible that Tsakos Shipping might allocate charter or spot opportunities to other Tsakos Shipping vessels when our vessels are unemployed, or could allocate more lucrative opportunities to its
other vessels. It is also possible that Tsakos Shipping could in the future agree to manage more tankers that directly compete with us.

Members of the
Tsakos Group may acquire vessels that compete with our fleet.

Tsakos Shipping has given us a right of first refusal on any opportunity
to purchase a tanker which is 10 years of age or younger or contract to construct a tanker that is referred to or developed by Tsakos Shipping. Were we to decline any opportunity offered to us, or if we do not have the resources or desire to accept
it, other members of the Tsakos Group might decide to accept the opportunity. In that case, they could be in competition with our fleet and be faced with conflicts of interest between their own interests and their obligations to us.

Our chief executive officer has affiliations with Tsakos Energy Management and Tsakos Shipping which could create conflicts of interest.

Nikolas Tsakos is the president, chief executive officer and a director of our company and an officer, director and the sole shareholder of Tsakos Energy
Management. Nikolas Tsakos is also the son of the founder and chief executive officer of Tsakos Shipping. These responsibilities and relationships could create conflicts of interest that could result in our losing revenue or business opportunities
or increase our expenses.

Our commercial arrangements with Tsakos Energy Management and Argosy may not always remain on a competitive basis.

We pay Tsakos Energy Management a management fee for its services pursuant to our management agreement. We also place our hull and
machinery insurance, increased value insurance and loss of hire insurance through Argosy Insurance Company, Bermuda, a captive insurance company affiliated with the Tsakos Group. We believe that the management fees that we pay Tsakos Energy
Management compare favorably with management compensation and related costs reported by other publicly traded shipping companies and that our arrangements with Argosy are structured at arms-length market rates. Our board reviews publicly available
data periodically in order to confirm this. However, we cannot assure you that the fees charged to us are or will continue to be as favorable to us as those we could negotiate with third parties and our board could determine to continue transacting
business with Tsakos Energy Management and Argosy even if less expensive alternatives were available from third parties.

We depend on our key
personnel.

Our future success depends particularly on the continued service of Nikolas Tsakos, our president and chief executive
officer and the sole shareholder of Tsakos Energy Management. The loss of Mr. Tsakoss services or the services of any of our key personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business. We do not maintain key man life insurance on
any of our executive officers.

Because the market value of our vessels may fluctuate significantly, we may incur losses when we sell vessels which may
adversely affect our earnings.

The fair market value of tankers may increase or decrease depending on any of the following:



| |  |  | general economic and market conditions affecting the tanker industry;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------



10

##### Table of Contents

| |  |  | supply and demand balance for ships within the tanker industry;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | competition from other shipping companies;

| |  |  | types and sizes of vessels;
| | - |  | ---------------------------



| |  |  | other modes of transportation;

| | - |  | ----------------------------------



| |  |  | prevailing level of charter rates; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------



| |  |  | technological advances.
| | - |  | -----------------------

We have a
policy of considering the disposal of tankers periodically and in particular after they reach 20 years of age. If we sell tankers at a time when tanker prices have fallen, the sale may be at less than the vessels carrying value on our
financial statements, with the result that we will incur a loss.

In addition, accounting pronouncements require that we periodically
review long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. An impairment loss for an asset held for use should be
recognized when the estimate of undiscounted cash flows, excluding interest charges, expected to be generated by the use of the asset is less than its carrying amount. Measurement of the impairment loss is based on the fair value of the asset as
provided by third parties. In this respect, management regularly reviews the carrying amount of our vessels in connection with the estimated recoverable amount for each vessel. Such reviews may from time to time result in asset write-downs that
could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. For example, in the latter part of 2002, the sinking of the Prestige and related events occurred which in the ensuing period has had an impact on the valuation of
single-hull vessels. Consequently, in 2002 we determined that our single-hull vessels, Panos G and Liberty, were impaired and recorded a $10.8 million impairment loss for the year ended December 31, 2002. No such impairment loss
was incurred for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006.

If Tsakos Shipping is unable to attract and retain skilled crew members,
our reputation and ability to operate safely and efficiently may be harmed.

Our continued success depends in significant part on the
continued services of the officers and seamen whom Tsakos Shipping provides to crew our vessels. The market for qualified, experienced officers and seamen is extremely competitive and has grown more so in recent periods as a result of the growth in
world economies and other employment opportunities. Although Tsakos Shipping sponsors two marine academies in the Philippines and has opened a manning office in Odessa, Ukraine, we cannot assure you that Tsakos Shipping will be successful in its
efforts to recruit and retain properly skilled personnel at commercially reasonable salaries. Any failure to do so could adversely affect our ability to operate cost-effectively and our ability to increase the size of our fleet.

Labor interruptions could disrupt our operations.

Substantially all of the seafarers and land based employees of Tsakos Shipping are covered by industry-wide collective bargaining agreements that set basic standards. We cannot assure you that these agreements will prevent labor
interruptions. In addition, some of our vessels operate under flags of convenience and may be vulnerable to unionization efforts by the International Transport Federation and other similar seafarer organizations which could be disruptive to our
operations. Any labor interruption or unionization effort which is disruptive to our operations could harm our financial performance.

The contracts to purchase our newbuildings present certain economic and other risks.

We currently have contracts to construct thirteen newbuildings that are scheduled for delivery during 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010. If available, we may
also order additional newbuildings. During the course of construction of a vessel, we are typically required to make progress payments. While we have refund guarantees from banks to cover defaults by the shipyards and our construction contracts
would be saleable in the event of our payment default, we can still incur economic losses in the event that we or the shipyards are unable to perform our respective obligations. Shipyards periodically experience financial difficulties. The
acquisition of LNG carriers could expose us to additional risks since neither TEM nor Tsakos Shipping has prior experience in managing and transporting LNG.

The profitability of our newly delivered LNG vessel will be subject to market volatility.

The LNG market is still in its
infancy and could fail to develop into a mature state for profitable LNG shipping investments. In such market scenarios, we could fail to dispose of our newbuilding LNG carriers. If we decide to exit this sector, for whatever reason, we might have
to sell the vessel at a price below the original contract price and subsequently suffer an economic loss or might be forced to operate the vessel at unprofitable or breakeven levels. In the first few weeks since delivery we have purposely refrained
from fixing long term employment for the vessel in expectation of securing a better rate and terms at a later date. If the market experiences a downturn in the next two years we might not be able to secure employment at all or be obliged to accept
charters for rates materially below those originally factored into our investment evaluation.

The effectiveness of attaining accretive charters would
be determined by the experience of Tsakos Shipping LNG dedicated personnel.

All LNG commercial management services would be subcontracted to Tsakos
Shipping as is customary with our existing tanker operations. However, neither Tsakos Energy Management nor Tsakos Shipping have as of now dedicated personnel for running LNG operations nor can we guarantee that they will employ an adequate number
of employees in the future. In addition, we can not guarantee that these employees, both onshore and at-sea will prove adequate in their assigned role.

The technical management of our LNG vessel largely relies on third parties with whom we have no prior experience of cooperation.

We have
subcontracted all technical management aspects of our LNG operation to Hyundai Merchant Marine for a fee. We can not guarantee the quality of their services nor the longevity of the management contract.

Our earnings may be adversely affected if we do not successfully employ our tankers.

We seek to employ our tankers on time charters, contracts of affreightment, tanker pools and in the spot market in a manner that will optimize our
earnings. As of December 31, 2006, 30 of our tankers were contractually committed to period employment (including COA and pool employment). The remaining terms of 24 of these period charters range from one month to five years and, in the case
of the Suezmax vessel Triathlon five years. For the vessel on bareboat charter, Millennium, the remaining term is 6.5 years. Although these period charters provide steady streams of revenue, our tankers committed to period charters may
not be available for spot voyages during an upswing in the tanker industry cycle, when spot voyages may be more profitable. If we cannot re-charter these vessels on long-term period charters or trade them in the spot market profitably, our results
of operations and operating cash flow may suffer.

Our significant investment in ice-class vessels might not prove successful.

We have made significant investments in building a solid presence in the ice-class tanker market through both building and acquiring ice strengthened
vessels. This type of vessel commonly commands a premium to build and/or acquire to compensate for the ice-class features of the hull and engine. The versatility of these vessels allows them to operate not only in ice-bound routes, but also in
conventional tanker routes. Usually rates for ice bound trades are at a premium to conventional tanker trades for the period the vessel operates in such demanding conditions. Ice-class vessels do not commonly operate throughout the year in such
harsh environments. We can not guarantee

##### Table of Contents

that our vessels will operate in ice-class trades for meaningful periods and/or earn rates with premiums to compensate for the investment made. If our
vessels fail to earn any material and sustained ice-class premium, their revenues would derive from conventional routes which we can not guarantee will be adequate to financially support our ice-class investment.

If the charterer under one of our bareboat charters is unable to perform under the charter, we may lose revenues.

We currently have a bareboat charter contract for the Millennium and time charters with profit share for four other vessels with Hyundai Merchant
Marine (HMM), a member of the Hyundai group of companies. The financial difficulties that the Hyundai group has faced in the past may still affect HMMs ability to perform under these charters, which are scheduled to expire between 2009 and
2013. This could result in the loss of significant revenue. In addition, we may expand this chartering relationship with HMM to other vessels in our fleet which would ultimately increase our exposure to that particular charterer.

We may not be able to finance all of the vessels we currently have on order.

We have not finalized financing arrangements to satisfy the balance of the purchase price due, approximately $254.7 million, for six of the eleven vessels that we have on order, Hull S-1342 and Hull S-1344 (two
aframaxes for delivery towards the end of 2008), Hull S-1349 and Hull S-1350 (two Aframaxes for delivery in 2009), Hull S-1356 and Hull S-1360 (two Aframaxes for delivery between the end of 2009 and the beginning of 2010). We cannot assure you that
we will be able to obtain additional financing for these newbuildings on terms that are favorable to us or at all.

If we are unable to
finance further installments for the newbuildings we have on order, we may attempt to sell the uncompleted vessels to a buyer who would assume the remainder of the contractual obligations. The amount we would receive from the buyer would depend on
market circumstances and could result in a deficit over the advances we had paid to the date of sale plus capitalized costs. Alternatively, we may default on the contract, in which case the builder would sell the vessel and refund our advances, less
any amounts the builder would deduct to cover all of its own costs. We would be obliged to cover any deficiency arising in such circumstances.

Apart from the delay in receiving the refund of advances and the possible payment of any deficiencies, the direct effect on our operations of not acquiring the vessel would be to forego any revenues and related vessel operating cash flows.

We may sell one or more of our newbuildings.

While we intend to take delivery of and operate all thirteen newbuildings we currently have on order, attractive opportunities may arise to sell one or more of these vessels while they are under construction or after they are delivered. Our
board of directors will review any such opportunity and may conclude that the sale of one or more vessel would be in our best interests. If we sell a vessel, we would receive the proceeds from the sale, repay any indebtedness we had incurred
relating to such newbuilding and we would no longer be responsible for further installments under the relevant newbuilding contract. We would, however, forego any revenues and operating cash flows associated with such newbuilding.

We will face challenges as we diversify and position our fleet to meet the needs of our customers.

We may need to diversify our fleet to accommodate the transportation of forms of energy other than crude oil and petroleum products in response to
industry developments and our customers needs. Accordingly, the Company is continually exploring opportunities in the Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) market and the greater oil onshore / offshore sector. To this end, in February 2007 we took
delivery of an LNG carrier. As the composition of our fleet continues to change, we may not have adequate experience in transporting these other forms of energy. In addition, if the cost structure of a diversified fleet that is able to transport
other forms of energy differs significantly from the cost structure of our current fleet, our profitability could be adversely affected. This could happen, for example, if we determined to purchase additional ships with the necessary cooling
capacity to transport LNG.

We may not have adequate insurance.

In the event of a casualty to a vessel or other catastrophic event, we will rely on our insurance to pay the insured value of the vessel or the damages incurred. We believe that we maintain as much insurance on our
vessels, through insurance companies, including Argosy, a member of the Tsakos Group, and P&I clubs as is appropriate and consistent with industry practice. However, particularly in view of the conflicts in Afghanistan, Iraq and elsewhere, we
cannot assure you that this insurance will remain available at reasonable rates, and we cannot assure you that the insurance we are able to obtain will cover all foreseen liabilities that we may incur, particularly those involving oil spills and
catastrophic environmental damage. In addition, we may not be able to insure certain types of losses, including loss of hire, which insurance coverage may become unavailable.

We are subject to funding calls by our protection and indemnity clubs, and our clubs may not have enough resources to cover claims made against them.

Our subsidiaries are indemnified for legal liabilities incurred while operating our vessels through membership in P&I clubs. P&I clubs are mutual
insurance clubs whose members must contribute to cover losses sustained by other club members. The objective of a P&I club is to provide mutual insurance based on the aggregate tonnage of a members vessels entered into the club. Claims are
paid through the aggregate premiums of all members of the club, although members remain subject to calls for additional funds if the aggregate premiums are insufficient to cover claims submitted to the club. Claims submitted to the club may include
those incurred by members of the club, as well as claims submitted to the club from other P&I clubs with which our P&I club has entered into interclub agreements. We cannot assure you that the P&I clubs to which we belong will remain
viable or that we will not become subject to additional funding calls which could adversely affect our profitability.

The insolvency or financial
deterioration of any of our insurers or reinsurers would negatively affect our ability to recover claims for covered losses on our vessels.

We have placed our hull and machinery, increased value and loss of hire insurance with Argosy, a captive insurance company affiliated with the Tsakos Group. Argosy reinsures the insurance it underwrites for us with various reinsurers,
however, the coverage deductibles of the reinsurance policies periodically exceed the coverage deductibles of the insurance policies Argosy underwrites for us. Argosy, therefore, would be liable with respect to the difference between those
deductibles in the event of a claim by us to which the deductibles apply. Although these reinsurers have credit ratings ranging from BBB to AA, we do not have the ability to independently determine our insurers and reinsurers
creditworthiness or their ability to pay on any claims that we may have as a result of a loss. In the event of insolvency or other financial deterioration of our insurer or its reinsurers, we cannot assure you that we would be able to recover on any
claims we suffer.

Our degree of leverage and certain restrictions in our financing agreements impose constraints on us.

We incur substantial debt to finance the acquisition of our tankers. At December 31, 2006, our debt to capital ratio was 60% (debt / debt plus
equity), with $1,133.7 million in long-term debt outstanding. Assuming known and estimated debt financing arrangements for our future newbuilding deliveries and recently announced acquisitions and based on our current forecasts of income for 2007
and 2008, we expect this ratio to be at approximately 64% by the end of December 2008, but declining thereafter. We are required to apply a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations, before interest payment, to the payment of principal
and interest on this debt. In 2006, approximately 10% of cash flow derived from operations was dedicated to debt service, excluding debt prepayment from the sale of vessels. This limits the funds available for working capital, capital expenditures,
dividends and other purposes. Our degree of leverage could have important consequences for us, including the following:



| |  |  | a substantial decrease in our net operating cash flows or an increase in our expenses could make it difficult for us to meet our debt service requirements and force
us to modify our operations;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | we may be more highly leveraged than our competitors, which may make it more difficult for us to expand our fleet; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

| |  |  | any significant amount of leverage exposes us to increased interest rate risk and makes us vulnerable to a downturn in our business or the economy generally.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In addition, our financing arrangements, which we secured by mortgages on our ships, impose operating and financial
restrictions on us that restrict our ability to:



| |  |  | incur additional indebtedness;
| | - |  | ------------------------------



| |  |  | create liens;
| | - |  | -------------



| |  |  | sell the capital of our subsidiaries or other assets;

| |  |  | engage in mergers and acquisitions;

| |  |  | make capital expenditures;
| | - |  | --------------------------



| |  |  | repurchase common shares; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------



| |  |  | pay cash dividends.
| | - |  | -------------------

We have a
holding company structure which depends on dividends from our subsidiaries and interest income to pay our overhead expenses and otherwise fund expenditures consisting primarily of advances on newbuilding contracts and the payment of dividends to our
shareholders. As a result, restrictions contained in our financing arrangements and those of our subsidiaries on the payment of dividends may restrict our ability to fund our various activities.

We selectively enter into derivative contracts, which can result in higher than market interest rates and charges against our income.

In the past six years we have selectively entered into derivative contracts both for investment purposes and to hedge our overall interest expense. Our
board of directors has reviewed and approved all our derivative contracts as being within reasonable limits and reasonable in light of our particular investment strategy at the time we entered into each such derivative contract.

Prior to the decision of our board in 2002 to enter into interest rate swap arrangements and other derivative instruments solely for purposes of hedging
our interest rate exposure under our floating rate secured bank facilities, we entered into non-hedging arrangements. Loans advanced under our secured credit facilities are, generally, advanced at a floating rate based on LIBOR. Our financial
condition could be materially adversely affected at any time that we have not entered into interest rate hedging arrangements to hedge our interest rate exposure and the interest rates applicable to our credit facilities and any other financing
arrangements we may enter into in the future, including those we enter into to finance a portion of the amounts payable with respect to newbuildings. Moreover, even if we have entered into interest rate swaps or other derivative instruments for
purposes of managing our interest rate exposure, our hedging strategies may not be effective and we may incur substantial loss.

In August
2001, our board adopted a risk management policy and established a risk committee consisting of Messrs. Stavropoulos, Nicholson, Tsakos and our chief financial officer, Mr. Durham, to oversee all our derivative transactions. It is our policy to
monitor our exposure to business risk, and to manage the impact of changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rate movements and bunker prices on earnings and cash flows through derivatives. Derivative contracts are executed when management
believes that the action is not likely to significantly increase overall risk. Entering into swaps and derivatives transactions is inherently risky and presents various possibilities for incurring



15

##### Table of Contents

significant expenses. The derivatives strategies that we employ in the future may not be successful or effective, and we could, as a result, incur
substantial additional interest costs. See Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk for a description of how our current interest rate swap arrangements have been adversely impacted by recent events.

The appraised value of our ships could deteriorate as the result of a variety of factors, resulting in our inability to comply with covenants under our loan
agreements.

The loan agreements we use to finance our ships require us not to exceed specified debt-to-asset ratios. Our only
significant assets are our ships, which are appraised each year. The appraised value of a ship fluctuates depending on a variety of factors including the age of the ship, its hull configuration, prevailing charter market conditions, supply and
demand balance for ships and new and pending legislation.

We cannot guarantee that a deterioration of our asset values will not result in
defaults in the future, nor can we guarantee that we will be able to negotiate a waiver in the event of a default. A default under one of our loan agreements could trigger cross-acceleration or cross-default provisions in our other loan agreements,
which in turn could result in all or a substantial amount of our debt becoming due at a time when we could not satisfy our obligations.

If we default
under any of our loan agreements, we could forfeit our rights in our vessels and their charters.

All of our vessels and related
collateral are individually pledged as security to the respective lenders under our loan agreements. Default under any of these loan agreements, if not waived or modified, would permit the lenders to foreclose on the mortgages over the vessels and
the related colateral, and we could lose our rights in the vessels and their charters.

Our vessels may suffer damage and we may face unexpected
drydocking costs which could affect our cash flow and financial condition.

If our vessels suffer damage, they may need to be repaired
at a drydocking facility. The costs of drydock repairs can be both substantial and unpredictable. We may have to pay drydocking costs that our insurance does not cover. This would result in decreased earnings.

A significant amount of our 2006 revenues were derived from four customers and a significant amount of our 2005 revenues were derived from three customers, and our
revenues could decrease significantly if we lost these customers.

In 2006, approximately 13% of our revenues came from contracts of
affreightment for three of our tankers with Lyondell/Citgo, compared to 16% in 2005. Also in 2006, approximately 9% of our revenues came from Star Tankers, 8% of our revenues came from Flopec and approximately 8% of our revenues derived from HMM.
Our inability or failure to continue to employ our vessels at rates comparable to those earned from Lyondell/Citgo, Star Tankers, Flopec and HMM, the loss of these customers or our failure to charter these vessels otherwise in a reasonable period of
time or at all could adversely affect our operations and performance. Although our customers generally include leading national, major and other independent oil companies and refiners, we are unable to assure you that future economic circumstances
will not render one or more of such customers unable to pay us amounts that they owe us, or that these important customers will not decide to contract with our competitors or perform their shipping functions themselves.

Approximately 13% of our revenue is derived from our customers that conduct a significant amount of business in Venezuela.

Lyondell/Citgo, accounted for approximately 13% in 2006 and 16% in 2005. This company conducts a significant amount of business in Venezuela. Venezuela
has experienced economic difficulties and social and political changes in recent years and we cannot say whether there will be further unrest or political upheavals in Venezuela. If we were to lose this customer, or if its exports were curtailed, or
if this customer was to become unable to perform their contractual obligations to us, our earnings would be adversely affected.

If we were to be subject to tax in jurisdictions in which we operate, our financial results would be adversely
affected.

Our income is not presently subject to taxation in Bermuda, which currently has no corporate income tax. We believe that we
should not be subject to tax under the laws of various countries other than the United States in which we conduct activities or in which our customers are located. However, our belief is based on our understanding of the tax laws of those countries,
and our tax position is subject to review and possible challenge by taxing authorities and to possible changes in law or interpretation. We cannot determine in advance the extent to which certain jurisdictions may require us to pay tax or to make
payments in lieu of tax. In addition, payments due to us from our customers may be subject to tax claims.

Under United States federal tax
rules applicable to international shipping income derived by qualifying non-United States corporations we will be eligible for a special statutory exemption if we satisfy the so-called publicly-traded test set forth in Section 883
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Under Treasury regulations interpreting the publicly-traded test that, if persons (other than certain investment companies) each of whom, either directly or under applicable attribution rules, owns
five percent or more of our common shares own in the aggregate fifty percent or more of our common shares, we could satisfy the publicly-traded test only if a sufficient portion of our shareholders were qualifying shareholders
(generally, shareholders that are individuals residents in foreign countries which grant an exemption from tax that is equivalent to the exemption provided in Section 883 of the Internal Revenue Code) and complied with potentially onerous
documentation requirements. Although we believe we currently satisfy all requirements for exemption, it is possible that we may not satisfy the publicly-traded test for our current taxable year or any future taxable year. If we were to fail to
qualify for the statutory exemption, we expect that we would be subject to United States taxation at a rate of 4% levied on half of our gross shipping income attributable to transportation beginning or ending in the United States or, for example,
United States.

If our U.S. source income from international transportation did not qualify for exemption from U.S. federal taxation in 2006 or prior
years, we would have a liability for tax, together with interest and penalties.

In 2001 and prior years, in order for our U.S. source
income from international transportation to qualify for exemption for U.S. federal income taxation, more than 50% of our shares, by value, must have been owned, directly or indirectly, by individuals resident in qualified foreign countries
(generally, countries that provide an exemption from tax equivalent to that provided in Section 883 of the Internal Revenue Code). While we believe that the ownership of our common shares was such that this requirement was satisfied, our common
shares were listed on the Oslo Børs and many of our common shares were held by nominees or entities. Thus, we have not established that we will be able to demonstrate the required level of direct or indirect ownership by individuals resident
in qualified foreign jurisdictions. If it were determined that the ownership requirement was not satisfied for a given year, we would be liable for U.S. federal income tax at a 4% rate on our gross U.S. source income from international
transportation for such years, together with related interest and penalties. If it were determined that the ownership requirement was not satisfied for 2002 or a subsequent year, and we were unable to establish that we satisfied a publicly-traded
test similar to that described above for such year, we would be liable for U.S. federal income tax at a 4% rate on our gross U.S. source income from international transportation for such year, together with related interest and penalties.

During the years 1998 through 2006, approximately $383 million of our consolidated gross income was U.S. source income derived from
international transportation beginning or ending in the United States. Therefore, if we did not qualify for the exemption from U.S. federal taxation described above for such years, we would owe U.S. tax for those years in an aggregate amount equal
to approximately $15 million, plus any applicable interest and penalties.

If we were treated as a passive foreign investment company, a U.S. investor
in our common shares would be subject to disadvantageous rules under the U.S. tax laws.

If we were treated as a passive foreign
investment company (a PFIC) in any year, U.S. holders of our common shares would be subject to unfavorable U.S. federal income tax treatment. We do not believe that we will be a PFIC in 2007 or in any future year. However, PFIC
classification is a factual determination made annually and we could become a PFIC if the portion of our income derived from bareboat charters or other passive sources were to increase substantially. Moreover, the IRS may disagree with our position
that time and voyage charters do not give



17

##### Table of Contents

rise to passive income for purposes of the PFIC rules. Accordingly, we can provide no assurance that we will not be treated as a PFIC for 2007 or for any
future year. Please see Tax ConsiderationsUnited States Federal income tax considerationsPassive Foreign Investment Company Considerations herein for a description of the PFIC rules.

Dividends we pay with respect to our common shares to United States holders would not be eligible to be taxed at reduced U.S. tax rates applicable to qualifying
dividends if we were a passive foreign investment company or under other circumstances.

For taxable years beginning prior to
January 1, 2011, distributions on the common shares of non-U.S. companies that are treated as dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes and are received by individuals generally will be eligible for taxation at capital gain rates if the
common shares with respect to which the dividends are paid are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. This treatment will not be available to dividends we pay, however, if we qualify as a PFIC for the taxable year
of the dividend or the preceding taxable year, or to the extent that (i) the shareholder does not satisfy a holding period requirement that generally requires that the shareholder hold the shares on which the dividend is paid for more than 60
days during the 121-day period that begins 60 days before the date on which the shares become ex-dividend with respect to such dividend, (ii) the shareholder is under an obligation to make related payments with respect to substantially similar
or related property or (iii) such dividend is taken into account as investment income under Section 163(d)(4)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code. We do not believe that we qualified as a PFIC for our last taxable year and, as described above,
we do not expect to so qualify for our current or future taxable years.

Because some of our expenses are incurred in foreign currencies, we are exposed
to exchange rate risks.

The charterers of our vessels pay us in U.S. dollars. While we incur most of our expenses in U.S. dollars, we
have in the past incurred expenses in other currencies, most notably the euro. In 2006, euro expenses accounted for approximately 20% of our total expenses. Declines in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to the euro, or the other currencies in
which we incur expenses, would increase the U.S. dollar cost of paying these expenses and thus would adversely affect our results of operations.

The
Tsakos Holdings Foundation and the Tsakos Group can exert considerable control over us, which may limit your ability to influence our actions.

As of December 31, 2006, companies controlled by the Tsakos Holdings Foundation or affiliated with the Tsakos Group own approximately 35% of our common shares. The Tsakos Holdings Foundation is a Liechtenstein foundation whose
beneficiaries include persons and entities affiliated with the Tsakos family, charitable institutions and other unaffiliated persons and entities. The council which controls the Tsakos Holdings Foundation consists of five members, two of whom are
members of the Tsakos family. The Tsakos Group is a group of companies controlled by members of the Tsakos family and is primarily involved in the management of ships. As long as the Tsakos Holdings Foundation and the Tsakos Group beneficially own a
significant percentage of our common shares, each will have the power to influence the election of the members of our board of directors and the vote on substantially all other matters, including significant corporate actions.

Risks Related To Our Common Shares

We may not be
able to pay cash dividends on our common shares as intended.

In October of 2006, we paid a cash dividend of $1.25 per common share in
relation to the year 2006. In April 2007, we paid a further dividend of $1.50 per common share relating to 2006. Subject to the limitations discussed below, we currently intend to continue to pay regular cash dividends on our common shares of
between one-quarter and one-half of our annual net income for the year in respect of which the dividends are paid. However, there can be no assurance that we will pay dividends or as to the amount of any dividend. The payment and the amount will be
subject to the discretion of our board of directors and will depend, among other things, on available cash balances, anticipated cash needs, our results of operations, our financial condition, and any loan agreement restrictions binding us or our
subsidiaries, as well as other relevant factors. For example, if we earned a capital gain on the sale of a vessel or newbuilding contract, we could determine to reinvest that gain instead of using it to pay dividends. Depending on our operating
performance for that year, this could result in no dividend at all



18



---

##### Table of Contents

despite the existence of net income, or a dividend that represents a lower percentage of our net income. Any payment of cash dividends could slow our ability
to renew and expand our fleet, and could cause delays in the completion of our current newbuilding program.

Because we are a holding
company with no material assets other than the stock of our subsidiaries, our ability to pay dividends will depend on the earnings and cash flow of our subsidiaries and their ability to pay us dividends. In addition, the financing arrangements for
indebtedness we incur in connection with our newbuilding program may further restrict our ability to pay dividends. In the event of any insolvency, bankruptcy or similar proceedings of a subsidiary, creditors of such subsidiary would generally be
entitled to priority over us with respect to assets of the affected subsidiary. Investors in our common shares may be adversely affected if we are unable to or do not pay dividends as intended.

Provisions in our Bye-laws, in our management agreement with Tsakos Energy Management and in our shareholder rights plan would make it difficult for a third party to
acquire us, even if such a transaction would be beneficial to our shareholders.

Our Bye-laws provide for a staggered board of
directors, blank check preferred stock, super majority voting requirements and other anti-takeover provisions, including restrictions on business combinations with interested persons and limitations on the voting rights of shareholders who acquire
more than 15% of our common shares. In addition, Tsakos Energy Management would have the right to terminate our management agreement and seek liquidated damages if a board member were elected without having been approved by the current board.
Furthermore, our shareholder rights plan authorizes issuance to existing shareholders of substantial numbers of preferred share rights and common shares in the event a third party seeks to acquire control of a substantial block of our common shares.
These provisions could deter a third party from tendering for the purchase of some or all of our shares. These provisions may have the effect of delaying or preventing changes of control of the ownership and management of our company, even if such
transactions would have significant benefits to our shareholders.

Our shareholder rights plan could prevent you from receiving a premium over the
market price for your common shares from a potential acquirer.

Our board of directors has adopted a shareholder rights plan that
authorizes issuance to our existing shareholders of substantial preferred share rights and additional common shares if any third party acquires 15% or more of our outstanding common shares or announces its intent to commence a tender offer for at
least 15% of our common shares, in each case, in a transaction that our board of directors has not approved. The existence of these rights would significantly increase the cost of acquiring control of our company without the support of our board of
directors because, under these limited circumstances, all of our shareholders, other than the person or group that caused the rights to become exercisable, would become entitled to purchase our common shares at a discount. The existence of the
rights plan could therefore deter potential acquirers and thereby reduce the likelihood that you will receive a premium for your common shares in an acquisition. See Description of Capital StockShareholder Rights Plan for a
description of our shareholder rights plan.

Because we are a foreign corporation, you may not have the same rights that a shareholder in a U.S.
corporation may have.

We are a Bermuda corporation. Our Memorandum of Association and Bye-laws and the Companies Act 1981 of Bermuda
govern our affairs. While many provisions of the Companies Act 1981 of Bermuda resemble provisions of the corporation laws of a number of states in the United States, Bermuda law may not as clearly establish your rights and the fiduciary
responsibilities of our directors as do statutes and judicial precedent in some U.S. jurisdictions. In addition, our directors and officers are not resident in the United States and all or substantially all of our assets are located outside of the
United States. As a result, investors may have more difficulty in protecting their interests and enforcing judgments in the face of actions by our management, directors or controlling shareholders than would shareholders of a corporation
incorporated in a U.S. jurisdiction.

|Item 4. | Information on the Company
|------- | --------------------------

Tsakos Energy
Navigation is a leading provider of international seaborne crude oil and petroleum product transportation services. It was incorporated in 1993 as an exempted company under the laws of Bermuda under the name Maritime Investment Fund Limited. In
1996, Maritime Investment Fund Limited was renamed MIF Limited. Our common shares were listed in 1993 on the Oslo Stock Exchange (OSE) and the Bermuda Stock Exchange although we delisted from the OSE in March 2005 due to limited trading. The
Companys shares are no longer actively traded on the Bermuda exchange. In July 2001, the Companys name was changed to Tsakos Energy Navigation Limited to enhance our brand recognition in the tanker industry, particularly among
charterers. In March 2002, the Company completed an initial public offering of the common shares in the United States and our common shares began trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol TNP. Since incorporation,
the Company has owned and operated 53 vessels and has sold 17 vessels (of which 3 have been chartered back).

Our principal offices are
located at 367 Syngrou Avenue, 175 64 P. Faliro, Athens, Greece. Our telephone number at such address is 011 30 210 9407710. Our website address is www.tenn.gr.

Business Overview

Tsakos Energy Navigation owns a fleet of modern tankers providing world-wide
marine transportation services for national, major and other independent oil companies and refiners under long, medium and short-term charters. We believe that we have established a reputation as a safe, cost efficient operator of modern and
well-maintained tankers. We also believe that these attributes, together with our strategy of proactively working towards meeting our customers chartering needs, has contributed to our ability to attract leading charterers as customers and to
our success in obtaining charter renewals.

Our technical management is undertaken, by Tsakos Shipping and Trading (Tsakos
Shipping, part of the Tsakos Group) one of the worlds largest independent tanker managers, based on the number of tankers under management. The Tsakos Group is a group of private companies controlled by members of the Tsakos family and
is primarily involved in the management of ships.

Tsakos Shipping is one of the largest independent tanker managers with a total of 64
operating vessels under management (with a further 21 to be delivered, 13 of which are vessels under construction for Tsakos Energy Navigation, as of March 31, 2007). This enables Tsakos Shipping to achieve significant economies of scale when
procuring supplies and underwriting insurance. These economies of scale, as well as Tsakos Shippings ability to spread their operating costs over a larger vessel base, have resulted in cost savings to us.

Tsakos Shippings established operations have allowed us to manage the growth of our fleet without having to integrate additional resources. The
size of our operating fleet increased from 231,103 dwt at inception to approximately 4.5 million dwt at March 31, 2007 (including two chartered-in vessels) with no significant adverse impact on the organization.

We have access to Tsakos Shippings network offices around the world and a pool of approximately 3,300 seafarers, which is supported by Tsakos
Shippings sponsorship of two naval academies in the Philippines and a Tsakos Shipping manning office in Odessa, Ukraine.

As of
March 31, 2007, our fleet consisted of 40 vessels (including two chartered-in vessels) of which three are VLCC tankers, nine are suezmax tankers, eleven are aframax tankers (including three LR2 aframax product carriers), five are panamax
tankers, six are handymax MR2 product carriers, five are handysize MR1 product carriers and one is a liquified natural gas (LNG) carrier. Nineteen of the operating vessels are of ice-class specification. This fleet diversity, which includes a number
of sister ships, provides us with the opportunity to be one of the more versatile operators in the market. Current fleet totals approximately 4.5 million dwt, all of which is double-hulled. This compares favorably to the worldwide average of
27% single-hulled dwt as of March 31, 2007. As of March 31, 2007 the average age of the tankers in our current operating fleet was 5.4 years, compared with the industry average of 11.1 years.

In addition to the vessels currently operating in our fleet, we are building an additional 13 vessels. In
the first quarter of 2007, the Company took delivery of one 1A ice-class suezmax tanker the Arctic,one handysize 1A ice class product carrier the Andromeda, one DNA design aframax tanker the Izumo Princessand it took delivery
of its first LNG vessel the Neo Energy. Also the Company re-purchased the aframax tanker Olympia which had been sold in 1999 as part of a sale and leaseback transaction. Furthermore the Company sold its 1989 1C ice-class panamax tanker
Bregen. During the remainder of 2007 the Company expects to take delivery of one 1A ice-class suezmax tanker, one aframax tanker of DNA design, two LR1 panamax product carriers, one 1A ice-class MR1 handysize product carrier and two 1B
ice-class handysize MR1 product carriers. In 2008, the Company expects delivery of a further two aframax tankers of DNA design. In 2009 and 2010, the Company expects to take delivery of a further four aframax tankers of DNA design. The resulting
fleet (assuming no sales) would comprise 53 vessels with 5.7 million dwt, which will include 5 vessels built between 1990 and 1997 of 0.8 million dwt.

We believe the following factors distinguish us from other public tanker companies:



| |  |  | Modern, high-quality, fleet. We own a fleet of modern, high-quality tankers that are designed for enhanced safety and low operating costs. Since
inception, we have committed to investments of almost $3.1 billion, including investments of approximately $2.3 billion in newbuilding constructions, in order to maintain and improve the quality of our fleet. We believe that increasingly stringent
environmental regulations and heightened concerns about liability for oil pollution have contributed to a significant demand for our vessels by leading oil companies, oil traders and major government oil entities. Tsakos Shipping, the technical
manager of our fleet, has received ISO 14001 certification, based in part upon audits conducted on our vessels.

| |  |  | Diversified fleet. Our diversified fleet, which includes VLCC, suezmax, aframax, panamax, handysize and handymax tankers, as well as one LNG carrier,
allows us to better serve our customers international crude oil and petroleum product transportation needs. We have also committed a sizable part of our newbuilding and acquisition program to ice-class vessels. By March 31, 2007 we had 19
ice-class vessels, and we expect delivery of a further four in the remaining period of 2007. Additionally, we have entered the LNG market with the delivery of our first LNG carrier in the first quarter of 2007.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Stability throughout industry cycles. Historically, we have employed a high percentage of our fleet on long and medium-term employment with fixed
rates or minimum rates plus profit sharing agreements. We believe this approach has resulted in high utilization rates for our vessels. At the same time, we maintain flexibility in our chartering policy to allow us to take advantage of favorable
rate trends through spot market employment and contract of affreightment charters with periodic adjustments. Over the last five years, our overall average fleet utilization rate was 95.6%.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Industry recognition. For over 35 years, the Tsakos Group has maintained relationships with and has achieved acceptance by national, major and other
independent oil companies and refiners. Several of the worlds major oil companies, including Lyondell/Citgo, PDVSA, ExxonMobil, FLOPEC, Shell, Sunoco, PMI, Lukoil, Petrobras, Trafigura, Glencore and Neste Oil are among the regular customers of
the Tsakos Group and of Tsakos Energy Navigation, in particular.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Significant leverage from our relationship with Tsakos Shipping. We believe the expertise, scale and scope of Tsakos Shipping are key components in
maintaining low operating costs, efficiency, quality and safety. We leverage Tsakos Shippings reputation and longstanding relationships with leading charterers to foster charter renewals.

Our newbuildings under construction

As of March 31, 2007, we have on order and expect to take
delivery between 2007 and 2010 of 13 new vessels currently under construction. These consist of one 1A ice-class suezmax from Hyundai Heavy Industries, seven aframaxes of DNA design from Sumitomo Heavy Industries, one 1A and two 1B ice-class
handysize product carriers from Hyundai MIPO Dockyard and two panamaxes Sungdong Shipbuilding and Marine Engineering in South Korea. The newbuildings have a double hull design compliant with all classification requirements and prevailing
environmental laws and regulations. Hyundai MIPO Dockyard and Hyundai Heavy Industries are experienced designers and builders of ships. Tsakos Shipping has worked closely with these Korean shipyards and the Sumitomo yard in Japan in the design of
the newbuildings and will continue to work with Hyundai MIPO Dockyard, Hyundai Heavy Industries, Sungdong Shipbuilding and Marine Engineering, and Sumitomo Heavy Industries during the construction period.

|(1) | Including extra cost agreed as of March 31, 2007
|--- | ------------------------------------------------

Under the newbuilding contracts, the purchase prices for the ships are subject to deductions for delayed delivery, excessive fuel consumption and failure to meet specified deadweight tonnage requirements. We make progress payments equal to
30% or 40% of the purchase price of each vessel during the period of its construction. The remainder of the purchase price with respect to each vessel will be paid upon delivery of the given vessel. As of March 31, 2007, we had made progress
payments of $163.8 million out of the total purchase price of approximately $707.0 million for these newbuildings. Of the remaining amount, a further $254.7 million will be paid during 2007.

While we intend to expand our fleet, attractive opportunities may arise to sell one or more of our vessels, including the 13 newbuildings we have on
order, and our board of directors may conclude that the sale of one or more vessels, if a compelling opportunity arises, could be in our best interest.

Fleet Deployment

We strive to optimize the financial performance of our fleet by deploying at least two-thirds of our
vessels on either time charters or period employment with variable rates. The remainder of the fleet is in the spot market. We believe that our fleet deployment strategy provides us with the ability to benefit from increases in tanker rates while at
the same time maintaining a measure of stability through cycles in the industry. The following table details the respective employment basis of our fleet during 2006 and 2005 as a percentage of operating days.

employment at variable rates related to the market are either in a pool or operating under contract of affreightment for a specific charterer. Tankers
operating in the spot market may generate increased profit margins during improvements in tanker rates, while tankers operating on time charters generally provide more predictable cash flows. Accordingly, we actively monitor macroeconomic trends and
governmental rules and regulations that may affect tanker rates in an attempt to optimize the deployment of our fleet. Our fleet has nine tankers currently operating on spot voyages.

Operations and Ship Management

Our operations

Management policies regarding our fleet that are formulated by our board of directors are executed by Tsakos Energy Management under a management
contract. Tsakos Energy Managements duties which are performed exclusively for the benefit of TEN include overseeing the purchase, sale and chartering of vessels, supervising day-to-day technical management of our vessels and providing
strategic, financial, accounting and other services, including investor relations. Our fleets technical management, including crewing, maintenance and repair, procuring insurance, and voyage operations, has been subcontracted by Tsakos Energy
Management to Tsakos Shipping. Tsakos Energy Management also engages Tsakos Shipping to arrange chartering of our vessels.

The following
chart illustrates the management of our fleet:

Management Contract

Executive and Commercial Management

Pursuant to our management agreement with Tsakos Energy Management, our operations are
executed and supervised by Tsakos Energy Management, based on the strategy devised by the board of directors and subject to the approval of our board of directors as described below. We pay Tsakos Energy Management monthly management fees for its
management of our vessels. Beginning July 1, 2004, we paid Tsakos Energy Management management fees of $18,000 per owned vessel per month and $12,500 per chartered-in vessel per month. The management agreement has been amended effective
January 1, 2007, to raise the monthly fee to $20,000 per owned vessel and $15,000 for vessels chartered-in or chartered out on a bare-boat basis, with a prorated adjustment if at each year end the Euro has appreciated by 10% or more against the
Dollar since the beginning of the year The management fee starts to accrue for a vessel at the point a newbuilding contract is executed. To help ensure that these fees are competitive with industry standards, our management has periodically made
presentations to our board of directors in which the fees paid to Tsakos Energy Management are compared against the publicly available financial information

of integrated, self-contained tanker companies. We paid Tsakos Energy Management aggregate management fees of $7.1 million in 2006. From these amounts,
Tsakos Energy Management pays a technical management fee to Tsakos Shipping. For additional information about the management agreement, including the calculation of management fees, see Item 7. Major Shareholders and Related Party
Transactions and our consolidated financial statements which are included as Item 18 to this annual report.

General
Administration. Tsakos Energy Management provides us with general administrative, office and support services necessary for our operations and our fleet, including technical and clerical personnel, communication, accounting, and data processing
services.

Sale and Purchase of Vessels. Tsakos Energy Management advises our board of directors when opportunities arise to
purchase, including through newbuildings, or to sell any vessels. All decisions to purchase or sell vessels require the approval of our board of directors.

Any purchases or sales of vessels approved by our board of directors are arranged and completed by Tsakos Energy Management. This involves the appointment of superintendents to inspect and take delivery of vessels and
to monitor compliance with the terms and conditions of the purchase or newbuilding contracts.

In the case of a purchase of a vessel by us,
each broker involved will receive commissions from the seller generally at the industry standard rate of one percent of the purchase price, but subject to negotiation. In the case of a sale of a vessel by us, each broker involved will receive a
commission from us generally at the industry standard rate of one percent of the sale price, but subject to negotiation. In accordance with the management agreement, Tsakos Energy Management is entitled to charge us for sale and purchase brokerage
commission, but to date has not done so.

Technical Management

Pursuant to a technical management agreement, Tsakos Energy Management employs Tsakos Shipping to manage the day-to-day aspects of vessel operations, including maintenance and repair, provisioning, and crewing of our
vessels. We benefit from the economies of scale of having our vessels managed as part of the Tsakos Shipping managed fleet. On occasion, Tsakos Shipping subcontracts the technical management and manning responsibilities of our vessels to third
parties. The executive and commercial management of our vessels, however, is not subcontracted to third parties. Tsakos Shipping, which is privately held and part of the Tsakos Group, is one of the largest independent tanker managers with a total of
64 operating vessels under management (with a further 21 to be delivered, 13 of which are vessels under construction for Tsakos Energy Navigation), totaling approximately 8.8 million dwt. Tsakos Shipping currently employs full-time
superintendents, technical experts and maritime engineers and have expertise in supervising the construction of new build vessels and inspecting second-hand vessels for purchase and sale, and in fleet maintenance and repair. They have approximately
200 employees engaged in ship management and approximately 3,300 seafaring employees of whom half are employed at sea and the remainder is on leave at any given time. Tsakos Shipping maintains representative offices in several locations covering key
areas of the shipping business such as London, New York, Houston, Montevideo, Manila, Singapore, Tokyo, Shanghai and Odessa. Their principal office is in Athens, Greece. The fleet managed by Tsakos Shipping consists mainly of tankers and feeder
container vessels, but also includes dry bulk carriers and other vessels owned by affiliates and unaffiliated third parties.

Tsakos Energy
Management pays Tsakos Shipping a fee per vessel per month for technical management of operating vessels and vessels under construction. This fee was determined by comparison to the rates charged by other major independent vessel managers. We
generally pay all monthly operating requirements of our fleet in advance. At December 31, 2006, we didnt have any outstanding advances to Tsakos Shipping.

Tsakos Shipping performs the technical management of our vessels under the supervision of Tsakos Energy Management. Tsakos Energy Management approves the appointment of fleet supervisors and oversees the establishment
of operating budgets and the review of actual operating expenses against budgeted amounts.

Chartering. Our board of directors
formulates our chartering strategy for all our vessels and Tsakos Shipping, under the supervision of Tsakos Energy Management, implements the strategy by:



| |  |  | evaluating the short, medium, and long-term opportunities available for each type of vessel;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



27

##### Table of Contents

| |  |  | balancing short, medium, and long-term charters in an effort to achieve optimal results for our fleet; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | positioning such vessels so that, when possible, re-delivery occurs at times when Tsakos Shipping expects advantageous charter rates to be available for future
employment.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tsakos Shipping utilizes the services of various charter brokers to solicit, research, and propose charters
for our vessels. The charter brokers role involves researching and negotiating with different charterers and proposing charters to Tsakos Shipping for cargoes to be shipped in our vessels. Tsakos Shipping negotiates the exact terms and
conditions of charters, such as delivery and re-delivery dates and arranges cargo and country exclusions, bunkers, loading and discharging conditions and demurrage. Tsakos Energy Management is required to obtain our approval for charters in excess
of six months and is required to obtain the written consent of the administrative agent for the lenders under our secured credit facility for charters in excess of thirteen months. There are frequently two or more brokers involved in fixing a vessel
on a charter. Brokerage fees typically amount to 2.5% of the value of the freight revenue or time charter hire derived from the charters. We pay a chartering commission of 1.25% to Tsakos Shipping for every charter involving our vessels. The total
amount we paid for these chartering commissions was $5.4 million in 2006.

Tsakos Shipping supervises the post fixture business of our
vessels, including:



| |  |  | the monitoring of the daily geographic position of such vessels in order to ensure that the terms and conditions of the charters are fulfilled by us and our
charterers;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the collection of monies payable to us; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------



| |  |  | resolution of disputes through arbitration and legal proceedings.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------

In addition, Tsakos Shipping appoints superintendents to supervise the loading and discharging of cargoes when necessary.

Maintenance and Repair. Each of our vessels is dry-docked once every five years in connection with special surveys and, after the vessel is fifteen years old, the vessel is also obliged to dry-dock the vessel
in connection with its intermediate survey two and one-half years after the last special survey, or as necessary to ensure the safe and efficient operation of such vessels and their compliance with applicable regulations. Tsakos Shipping arranges
dry-dockings and repairs under instructions and supervision from Tsakos Energy Management. We believe that the time periods during which our vessels are in dry-dock are, on average, shorter than those prevalent in the industry due to the rigorous
on-going maintenance program we conduct.

Tsakos Shipping routinely employs on each vessel additional crew members whose primary
responsibility is the performance of maintenance while the vessel is in operation. Tsakos Energy Management awards and, directly or through Tsakos Shipping, negotiates contracts with shipyards to conduct such maintenance and repair work. They seek
competitive tender bids in order to minimize charges to us, subject to the location of our vessels and any time constraints imposed by a vessels charter commitments. In addition to dry-dockings, Tsakos Shipping, where necessary, utilizes
superintendents to conduct periodic physical inspections of our vessels.

Crewing and Employees

We do not employ the personnel to run our business on a day-to-day basis. We outsource substantially all of our executive, commercial and technical
management functions.

Tsakos Shipping arranges employment of captains, officers, engineers and other crew who serve on our vessels. Tsakos
Shipping ensures that all seamen have the qualifications and licenses required to comply with international regulations and shipping conventions and that experienced and competent personnel are employed for our vessels.

Regulation

Our business and the operation of our vessels are materially affected by government regulation in the form of international conventions, national, state and local laws and regulations in force in the jurisdictions in
which the vessels operate, as well as in the country or countries of their registration. Because these conventions, laws, and regulations are often revised, we cannot predict the ultimate cost of complying with them or their impact on the resale
price and/or the useful lives of our vessels. Additional conventions, laws and regulations may be adopted which could limit our ability to do business or increase the cost of our doing business and which may have a material adverse effect on our
operations. Various governmental and quasi-governmental agencies require us to obtain permits, licenses and certificates with respect to our operations. Subject to the discussion below and to the fact that the kinds of permits, licenses and
certificates required for the operations of the vessels we own will depend upon a number of factors, we believe that we have been and will be able to obtain all permits, licenses and certificates material to the conduct of our operations.

We believe that the heightened environmental and quality concerns of insurance underwriters, regulators and charterers will impose greater
inspection and safety requirements on all vessels in the tanker market and will accelerate the scrapping of older vessels throughout the industry.

IMO. The International Maritime Organization (IMO) has negotiated international conventions that impose liability for oil pollution in international waters and in a signatorys territorial waters. In March 1992, the
IMO adopted further amendments to Annex I of the 1993 International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships (MARPOL) which set forth new and upgraded requirements for oil pollution prevention for tankers. These regulations,
which became effective in July 1993 (in relation to newbuildings) and in July 1995 (in relation to existing tankers) in many jurisdictions in which our tanker fleet operates, provide that (1) tankers between 25 and 30

##### Table of Contents

years old must be of double-hull construction or of a mid-deck design with double side construction, unless they have wing tanks or double-bottom spaces not
used for the carriage of oil, which cover at least 30% of the length of the cargo tank section of the hull or are capable of hydrostatically balanced loading which ensures at least the same level of protection against oil spills in the event of
collision or stranding, (2) tankers 30 years old or older must be of double-hull construction or mid-deck design with double-side construction, and (3) all tankers will be subject to enhanced inspections. Also, under IMO regulations, a
tanker must be of double-hull construction or a mid-deck design with double-side construction or be of another approved design ensuring the same level of protection against oil pollution if that tanker (1) is the subject of a contract for a
major conversion or original construction on or after July 6, 1993, (2) commences a major conversion or has its keel laid on or after January 6, 1994, or (3) completes a major conversion or is a newbuilding delivered on or after
July 6, 1996.

In April 2001, the IMO adopted a proposal to revise these regulations which became effective in September 2002. These
revised regulations provide for increased inspection and verification requirements and for a more aggressive phase-out of single-hull oil tankers, in most cases by 2015 or earlier, depending on the age of the vessel and whether the vessel complies
with requirements for protectively located segregated ballast tanks. Segregated ballast tanks use ballast water that is completely separate from the cargo oil and oil fuel system. Segregated ballast tanks are currently required by the IMO on crude
oil tankers of 20,000 tonnes deadweight constructed after 1982. The changes, which will likely increase the number of tankers that are scrapped, are intended to reduce the likelihood of oil pollution in international waters.

As a result of the oil spill in November 2002 relating to the loss of the oil tanker Prestige, which was owned by a company not affiliated with us, in
December 2003 the IMO proposed an amendment to MARPOL to accelerate further the phase out of single-hull tankers from 2015 to 2010 unless the relevant flag state, in a particular case, extends the date to either 2015 or the date on which the ship
reaches 25 years of age after the date of its delivery, whichever is earlier. This amendment became effective on April 5, 2005.

The
latest amendment to Annex I of MARPOL came into force on 1 January 2007. This consolidates all amendments since 1993 and makes clear the distinction between the requirements for new tankers and existing tankers. All of the vessels in our fleet
are of double hull construction.

In September 1997, the IMO adopted Annex VI to MARPOL to address air pollution from ships. Annex VI came
into force on May 19, 2005. Annex VI sets limits on sulfur oxide and nitrogen oxide emissions from ship exhausts and prohibits deliberate emissions of ozone depleting substances, such as chlorofluorocarbons. Annex VI also includes a global cap
on the sulfur content of fuel oil and allows for special areas to be established with more stringent controls on sulfur emissions. Annex VI has been ratified by some, but not all IMO member states. All vessels subject to Annex VI and built after
May 19, 2005 must carry an International Air Pollution Prevention Certificate evidencing compliance with Annex VI. Vessels built before May 19, 2005, must obtain this Certificate by the earlier of the first dry docking after that date and
May 19, 2008. Implementing the requirements of Annex VI may require modifications to vessel engines or the addition of post combustion emission controls, or both, as well as the use of lower sulfur fuels.

In addition, the Companys new liquefied natural gas (LNG) carrier (delivered to us in February of 2007) is required to meet IMO
requirements for liquefied gas carriers. In order to operate in the navigable waters of the IMOs member states, liquefied gas carriers must have an IMO Certificate of Fitness demonstrating compliance with construction codes for liquefied gas
carriers. These codes, and similar regulations in individual member states, address fire and explosion risks posed by the transport of liquefied gases. Collectively, these standards and regulations impose detailed requirements relating to the design
and arrangement of cargo tanks, vents, and pipes; construction materials and compatibility; cargo pressure; and temperature control.

Liquefied gas carriers are also subject to international conventions that regulate pollution in international waters and a signatorys territorial waters. Under the IMO regulations, gas carriers that comply with the IMO construction
certification requirements are deemed to satisfy the requirements of Annex II of MARPOL applicable to transportation of chemicals at sea, which would otherwise apply to certain liquefied gases. The IMO recently revised the Annex II regulations that
restrict discharges of noxious liquid substances during cleaning or de-ballasting operations. The revisions took effect on January 1, 2007 and include significantly lower permitted discharge levels of noxious liquid substances for
vessels constructed on or after the effective date, made possible by improvements in vessel technology. These new discharge levels apply to the Companys LNG carrier.

Tsakos Shipping, our technical manager, has been ISO 14001 compliant since April 2000. ISO 14001 requires
companies to commit to the prevention of pollution as part of the normal management cycle. Additional or new conventions, laws and regulations may be adopted that could adversely affect our ability to manage our ships.

In addition, the European Union and countries elsewhere have considered stricter technical and operational requirements for tankers and legislation that
would affect the liability of tanker owners and operators for oil pollution. In December 2001, the European Union adopted a legislative resolution confirming an accelerated phase-out schedule for single hull tankers in line with the schedule adopted
by the IMO in April 2001. Any additional laws and regulations that are adopted could limit our ability to do business or increase our costs. The results of these or potential future environmental regulations could have a material adverse affect on
our operations.

Under the current regulations, the vessels of our existing fleet will be able to operate for substantially all of their
respective economic lives. However, compliance with the new regulations regarding inspections of all vessels may adversely affect our operations. We cannot at the present time evaluate the likelihood or magnitude of any such adverse effect on our
operations due to uncertainty of interpretation of the IMO regulations.

The operation of our vessels is also affected by the requirements
set forth in the IMOs International Management Code for the Safe Operation of Ships and for Pollution Prevention (ISM Code) which was came into effect in relation to oil tankers in July 1998. The ISM Code requires shipowners, ship
managers and bareboat (or demise) charterers to develop and maintain an extensive safety management system that includes the adoption of a safety and environmental protection policy setting forth instructions and procedures for safe
operation and describing procedures for dealing with emergencies. The failure of a shipowner, ship manager or bareboat charterer to comply with the ISM Code may subject that party to increased liability, may decrease available insurance coverage for
the affected vessels, and may result in a denial of access to, or detention in, some ports. All of our vessels are ISM Code certified.

OPA 90. The US Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (OPA 90) established an extensive regulatory and liability regime for the protection and cleanup of the environment from oil spills. OPA 90 affects all owners and operators whose
vessels trade to the United States or its territories or possessions or whose vessels operate in United States waters, which include the United States territorial sea and its two hundred nautical mile exclusive economic zone.

Under OPA 90, vessel owners, operators and bareboat charterers are responsible parties and are jointly, severally and strictly liable (unless
the spill results solely from the act or omission of a third party, an act of God or an act of war) for all containment and clean-up costs and other damages arising from discharges or threatened discharges of oil from their vessels. Tsakos Shipping
and Tsakos Energy Management would not qualify as third parties because they perform under contracts with us. These other damages are defined broadly to include (1) natural resources damages and the costs of assessing them,
(2) real and personal property damages, (3) net loss of taxes, royalties, rents, fees and other lost revenues, (4) lost profits or impairment of earning capacity due to property or natural resources damage, (5) net cost of public
services necessitated by a spill response, such as protection from fire, safety or health hazards, and (6) loss of subsistence use of natural resources. As a result of 2006 amendments to OPA 90, the statute now limits the liability of
responsible parties to the greater of $1,900 per gross ton or $16 million per tanker that is over 3,000 gross tons and has a double-hull (tankers with single-hull, double sides only or double bottom only are subject to higher limits). These limits
of liability would not apply if the incident was proximately caused by violation of applicable United States federal safety, construction or operating regulations or by the responsible party (or its agents or employees or any person acting pursuant
to a contractual relationship with the responsible party) or by gross negligence or willful misconduct, or if the responsible party fails or refuses to report the incident or to cooperate and assist in connection with the oil removal activities. We
currently plan to continue to maintain for each of our vessels pollution liability coverage in the amount of $1 billion per incident. A catastrophic spill could exceed the insurance coverage available, in which case there could be a material adverse
effect on us.

Under OPA 90, with some limited exceptions, all newly built or converted tankers operating in United States waters must be
built with double-hulls, and existing vessels which do not comply with the double-hull requirement must be phased out over a 25-year period (1990-2015) based on size, age and hull construction.

##### Table of Contents

Notwithstanding the phase-out period, OPA 90 currently permits existing single-hull tankers to operate until the year 2015 if their operations within United
States waters are limited to discharging at the Louisiana Off-Shore Oil Platform, or off-loading by means of lightering activities within authorized lightering zones more than 60 miles off-shore. Currently, all of our fleet is of double-hull
construction.

OPA 90 requires owners and operators of vessels to establish and maintain with the United States Coast Guard evidence of
financial responsibility sufficient to meet their potential liabilities under OPA 90. In December 1994, the Coast Guard implemented regulations requiring evidence of financial responsibility in the amount of $1,500 per gross ton for tankers (with
double-hulls), coupling the OPA limitation on liability of $1,200 per gross ton with the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act liability limit of $300 per gross ton. The Coast Guard intends to promulgate regulations
that will increase the OPA financial responsibility amounts to reflect the 2006 amendments to OPA increasing the limits of liability. Under the regulations, evidence of financial responsibility may be demonstrated by insurance, surety bond, letter
of credit, self-insurance, guaranty or other satisfactory evidence. Under OPA 90, it is understood that an owner or operator of a fleet of tankers is required only to demonstrate evidence of financial responsibility in an amount sufficient to cover
the tanker in the fleet having the greatest maximum liability under OPA 90.

The Coast Guards regulations concerning certificates of
financial responsibility provide, in accordance with OPA 90, that claimants may bring suit directly against an insurer or guarantor that furnishes certificates of financial responsibility. If an insurer or guarantor is sued directly, it is
prohibited from asserting any contractual defense that it may have had against the responsible party and is limited to asserting those defenses available to the responsible party and the defense that the incident was caused by the willful misconduct
of the responsible party. Some organizations, which had typically provided certificates of financial responsibility under pre-OPA 90 laws, including the major protection and indemnity organizations, have declined to furnish evidence of insurance for
vessel owners and operators if they have been subject to direct actions or required to waive insurance policy defenses.

The Coast
Guards financial responsibility regulations may also be satisfied by evidence of surety bond, guaranty or by self-insurance. Under the self-insurance provisions, the ship owner or operator must have a net worth and working capital, measured in
assets located in the United States against liabilities located anywhere in the world, that exceeds the applicable amount of financial responsibility.

OPA 90 specifically permits individual US coastal states to impose their own liability regimes with regard to oil pollution incidents occurring within their boundaries, and some states have enacted legislation
providing for unlimited liability for oil spills. In some cases, states which have enacted such legislation have not yet issued implementing regulations defining tanker owners responsibilities under these laws. We intend to comply with all
applicable state regulations in the ports where our vessels call.

Owners or operators of tankers operating in United States waters are
required to file vessel response plans with the Coast Guard, and their tankers are required to operate in compliance with their Coast Guard approved plans. These response plans must, among other things, (1) address a worst case
scenario and identify and ensure, through contract or other approved means, the availability of necessary private response resources to respond to a worst case discharge, (2) describe crew training and drills, and (3) identify
a qualified individual with full authority to implement removal actions.

Environmental Regulation  The Clean Water Act

The US Clean Water Act (CWA) prohibits the discharge of oil or hazardous substances in navigable waters and imposes strict liability in the
form of penalties for any unauthorized discharges. The CWA also imposes substantial liability for the costs of removal, remediation and damages and complements the remedies available under OPA 90. Currently, under US Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) regulations, vessels are exempt from the requirement to obtain CWA permits for the discharge of ballast water and other substances incident to normal operation in US ports. However, a United States District Court ruled in March
2005 that the EPA exceeded its statutory authority in creating this exemption, which has been in place since 1978. On September 18, 2006 the Court ordered the EPA to develop new regulations by September 30, 2008 to ensure that owners and
operators of vessels visiting US ports comply with the CWA and restrict the discharge of invasive species in ballast water, or face penalties. Although the EPA has appealed the decision to the Circuit Court of Appeals, we cannot predict the

outcome of the litigation. If the District Courts decision is upheld, we will be subject to CWA permitting requirements that could include ballast
water treatment. While we do not believe that the costs associated with obtaining such permits and complying with any treatment obligations would be material, it is difficult to predict the overall impact of any CWA permit requirements on our
operations.

European Union Initiatives: In response to the oil spill caused by the sinking of the oil tanker Erika in December 1999, the
European Union has proposed legislation that would (1) ban manifestly sub-standard ships (defined as those over 15 years old that have been detained by port authorities more than twice in the previous six months) from European waters and create
an obligation of port states to inspect ships posing a high risk to maritime safety and the marine environment; (2) provide the European Commission with greater authority and control over classification societies, including the ability to seek
to suspend or revoke the authority of negligent societies; and (3) accelerate the phasing in of double-hull or equivalent design standards for single-hull oil tankers on the same schedule as that required under the IMO regulations on pollution
prevention for tankers. In December 2001, the European Union adopted a legislative resolution confirming an accelerated phase-out schedule for single hull tankers in line with the schedule adopted by the IMO in April 2001. In July 2003, in response
to the m.t. Prestige oil spill in November 2002, the European Union adopted legislation that (1) prohibits all single-hull tankers from entering into European Union ports or offshore terminals by 2010; (2) bans all single-hull tankers
carrying heavy grades of oil from entering or leaving European Union ports or offshore terminals or anchoring in areas under its jurisdiction; and (3) commencing in 2005, imposes a Condition Assessment Scheme Survey for single-hull tankers
older than 15 years of age. Such regulations became effective on October 21, 2003. In September 2005, the European Union adopted legislation to incorporate international standards for ship-source pollution into European Community law and to
establish penalties for discharge of polluting substances from ships (irrespective of flag). The legislation contemplates that sanctions will be levied against any person, including the master, owner and/or operator of the polluting ship, found to
have caused or contributed to ship-source pollution with intent, recklessly or with serious negligence (this is a lower threshold for liability than applied by MARPOL, upon which the ship-source pollution legislation is partly based). In
the most serious cases, infringements will be regarded as criminal offences (where sanctions include imprisonment) and will carry fines of up to Euro 1.5 million. The ship-source pollution legislation is required to be enacted into national law of
the Member States of the European Union by March 2007. A further package of proposed legislation, commonly referred to as the Erika III proposals, was presented by the European Commission in November 2005 and two bills (dealing with the obligation
of Member States to exchange information among themselves and to check vessels comply with international rules, and with the allocation of responsibility in the case of accident, respectively) were adopted in March 2007. Additionally, the sinking of
the m.t. Prestige has led to the adoption of other environmental regulations by certain European Union Member States. It is impossible to predict what legislation or additional regulations, if any, may be promulgated by the European Union or any
other country or authority.

Other Environmental Initiatives: Many countries have ratified and follow the liability scheme adopted by the
IMO and set out in the International Convention on Civil Liability for Oil Pollution Damage, 1969, as amended (CLC), and the International Convention on the Establishment of an International Fund for Compensation for Oil Pollution Damage
of 1971, as amended (Fund Convention). The United States is not a party to these conventions. Under these conventions, a vessels registered owner is strictly liable for pollution damage caused on the territorial waters of a
contracting state by discharge of persistent oil, subject to certain complete defenses. The liability regime was increased (in limit and scope) in 1992 by the adoption of Protocols to the CLC and Fund Convention which became effective in 1996. The
Fund Convention was terminated in 2002 and the Supplementary Fund Protocol entered into force in March 2005. The liability limit in the countries that have ratified the 1992 CLC Protocol is tied to a unit of account which varies according to a
basket of currencies. Under an amendment to the Protocol that became effective on November 1, 2003, for vessels of 5,000 to 140,000 gross tons, liability is limited to approximately $6.88 million plus $962 for each additional gross ton over
5,000. For vessels of over 140,000 gross tons, liability is limited to approximately $136.9 million. As the convention calculates liability in terms of a basket of currencies, these figures are based on currency exchange rates on April 26,
2007. From May 1998, parties to the 1992 CLC Protocol ceased to be parties to the CLC due to a mechanism established in the 1992 Protocol for compulsory denunciation of the old regime; however, the two regimes will co-exist until the
1992 Protocol has been ratified by all original parties to the CLC. The right to limit liability is forfeited under the CLC where the spill is caused by the owners actual fault and under the 1992 Protocol where the spill is caused by the
owners intentional or reckless conduct. The 1992 Protocol channels more of the liability to the owner by exempting other groups from this exposure. Vessels trading to states that are parties to these conventions must provide evidence of
insurance

covering the liability of the owner. In jurisdictions where the CLC has not been adopted, various legislative schemes or common law govern, and liability is
imposed either on the basis of fault or in a manner similar to that convention. We believe that our protection and indemnity insurance will cover the liability under the plan adopted by IMO.

The US National Invasive Species Act (NISA) was enacted in 1996 in response to growing reports of harmful organisms being released into US
ports through ballast water taken on by ships in foreign ports. Under NISA, the US Coast Guard adopted regulations in July 2004 imposing mandatory ballast water management practices for all vessels equipped with ballast water tanks entering US
waters. These requirements can be met by performing mid-ocean ballast exchange, by retaining ballast water on board the ship, or by using environmentally sound alternative ballast water management methods approved by the US Coast Guard. (However,
mid-ocean ballast exchange is mandatory for ships heading to the Great Lakes or Hudson Bay, or vessels engaged in the foreign export of Alaskan North Slope crude oil.) Mid-ocean ballast exchange is the primary method for compliance with the Coast
Guard regulations, since holding ballast water can prevent ships from performing cargo operations upon arrival in the US, and alternative methods are still under development. Vessels that are unable to conduct mid-ocean ballast exchange due to
voyage or safety concerns may discharge minimum amounts of ballast water (in areas other than the Great Lakes and the Hudson River), provided that they comply with record keeping requirements and document the reasons they could not follow the
required ballast water management requirements. The Coast Guard has been developing ballast water discharge standards, which could set maximum acceptable discharge limits for invasive species, or lead to requirements for active treatment of ballast
water. Legislation was introduced in the US Senate in March 2007 that would require all vessels entering a US port in 2012 to conduct active treatment of ballast water in line with maximum acceptable discharge limits for various invasive species
(provided that the Coast Guard and the EPA may set alternative equivalent standards before the date of coming into force of these requirements).

At the international level, the IMO adopted an International Convention for the Control and Management of Ships Ballast Water and Sediments in February 2004 (the BWM Convention). The Conventions implementing
regulations call for a phased introduction of mandatory ballast water exchange requirements (beginning in 2009), to be replaced in time with mandatory concentration limits. The BWM Convention will not enter into force until 12 months after it has
been adopted by 30 states, the combined merchant fleets of which represent not less than 35 percent of the gross tonnage of the worlds merchant shipping. As at March 31, 2007 the BWM Convention has been adopted by eight states,
representing 3.21 percent of world tonnage.

If mid-ocean ballast exchange is made mandatory throughout the United States or at the
international level, or if water treatment requirements or options are instituted, the cost of compliance could increase for ocean carriers. Although we do not believe that the costs of compliance with a mandatory mid-ocean ballast exchange would be
material, it is difficult to predict the overall impact of such a requirement on our operations.

Classification and inspection

Our vessels have been certified as being in class by their respective classification societies: Bureau Veritas, Det Norske Veritas, American
Bureau of Shipping, Korean Register, Lloyds Register of Shipping or Nippon Kaiji Kyokai. Every vessels hull and machinery is classed by a classification society authorized by its country of registry. The classification
society certifies that the vessel has been built and maintained in accordance with the rules of such classification society and complies with applicable rules and regulations of the country of registry of the vessel and the international conventions
of which that country is a member. Each vessel is inspected by a surveyor of the classification society every year, an annual survey, every two to three years, an intermediate survey, and every four to five years, a special survey. Vessels also may
be required, as part of the intermediate survey process, to be dry-docked every 24 to 30 months for inspection of the underwater parts of the vessel and for necessary repair related to such inspection.

In addition to the classification inspections, many of our customers, including the major oil companies, regularly inspect our vessels as a precondition
to chartering voyages on these vessels. We believe that our well-maintained, high quality tonnage should provide us with a competitive advantage in the current environment of increasing regulation and customer emphasis on quality of service.

Tsakos Shipping, our technical manager, obtained a document of compliance with the ISO 9000 standards of total quality management. ISO
9000 is a series of international standards for quality systems that includes ISO 9002,

the standard most commonly used in the shipping industry. Our technical manager has also completed the implementation of the ISM Code. Our technical manager
has obtained documents of compliance for our offices and safety management certificates for our vessels, as required by the IMO. Our technical manager has also received ISO 14001 certification.

Risk of loss and insurance

The operation of any
ocean-going vessel carries an inherent risk of catastrophic marine disasters and property losses, including:



| |  |  | collision;
| | - |  | ----------



| |  |  | adverse weather conditions;
| | - |  | ---------------------------



| |  |  | fire and explosion;
| | - |  | -------------------



| |  |  | mechanical failures;
| | - |  | --------------------



| |  |  | negligence;
| | - |  | -----------



| |  |  | war;
| | - |  | ----



| |  |  | terrorism; and
| | - |  | --------------



| |  |  | piracy.
| | - |  | -------

In addition, the
transportation of crude oil is subject to the risk of crude oil spills, and business interruptions due to political circumstances in foreign countries, hostilities, labor strikes, and boycotts. Tsakos Shipping arranges insurance coverage to protect
against most risks involved in the conduct of our business and we maintain environmental damage and pollution insurance coverage. Tsakos Shipping arranges insurance covering the loss of revenue resulting from vessel off-hire time. We believe that
our current insurance coverage is adequate to protect against most of the risks involved in the conduct of our business. The terrorist attacks in the United States and various locations abroad and international hostilities have lead to increases in
our insurance premium rates and the implementation of special war risk premiums for certain trading routes. See Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects for a description of how our insurance rates have been
affected by recent events.

We have hull and machinery insurance, increased value (total loss or constructive total loss) insurance and
loss of hire insurance with Argosy Insurance Company. Each of our ship owning subsidiaries is a named insured under our insurance policies with Argosy. Argosy provides the same full coverage as provided through London and Norwegian underwriters and
reinsures its exposure, subject to customary deductibles, in the London, French, Norwegian and U.S. reinsurance markets. We were charged by Argosy aggregate premiums of $8.6 million in 2006. By placing our insurance through Argosy, we believe that
we achieve cost savings over the premiums we would otherwise pay to third party insurers. Argosy reinsures most insurance it underwrites for us with various reinsurers. These reinsurers have credit ratings ranging from BBB to AA.

Our subsidiaries are indemnified for legal liabilities incurred while operating our vessels by protection and indemnity insurance that we maintain
through their membership in a P&I club. This protection and indemnity insurance covers legal liabilities and other related expenses of injury or death of crew members and other third parties, loss or damage to cargo, claims arising from
collisions with other vessels, damage to other third party property and pollution arising from oil or other substances, including wreck removal. The object of P&I clubs is to provide mutual insurance against liability to third parties incurred
by P&I club members in connection with the operation of their vessels entered into the P&I club in accordance with and subject to the rules of the P&I club and the individual members terms of participation. A
members individual P&I club premium is typically based on the aggregate tonnage of the members vessels entered into the P&I club according to the risks of insuring the vessels as

##### Table of Contents

determined by the P&I club. P&I club claims are paid from the aggregate premiums paid by all members, although members remain subject to
calls for additional funds if the aggregate insurance claims made exceed aggregate member premiums collected. P&I clubs enter into reinsurance agreements with other P&I clubs and with third party underwriters as a method of
preventing large losses in any year from being assessed directly against members of the P&I club. Currently, applicable P&I club rules provide each of its members with more than $4 billion of liability coverage except for pollution coverage
which is limited to $1 billion.

Recent world events have led to increases in our insurance premium rates and the implementation of special
war risk premiums for certain trading routes. For 2006-2007, our P&I club insurance premiums increased for several of our vessels by approximately 7%, but for others the increase was minimal. Our hull and machinery insurance premiums
also increased in certain cases by 9%, but in others by less than 3%. We have been advised that for 2007-2008 our P&I club insurance premiums will increase by approximately another 2% and our hull and machinery insurance premiums by 10%. In
addition, war risk coverage for vessels operating in certain geographical areas has doubled, but this type of coverage represents a relatively small portion of our total insurance premiums. P&I, hull and machinery and war risk
insurance premiums are accounted for as part of operation expenses in our financial statements. Accordingly, any change in insurance premium rates directly impacts our operating results.

Competition

We operate in markets that are highly competitive and where no owner currently controls
more than 5% of the world tanker fleet. Ownership of tankers is divided among independent tanker owners and national and independent oil companies. Many oil companies and other oil trading companies, the principal charterers of our fleet, also
operate their own vessels and transport oil for themselves and third party charterers in direct competition with independent owners and operators. We compete for charters based on price, vessel location, size, age, condition and acceptability of the
vessel as well as Tsakos Shippings reputation as a manager. Currently we compete primarily with owners of tankers in the ULCCs, VLCCs, Suezmax, Aframax, Panamax, Handymax and Handysize class sizes, and we also compete with owners of LNG
carriers.

Although we do not actively trade to a significant extent in Middle East trade routes, disruptions in those routes as a result
of international hostilities, including those in Afghanistan and Iraq, and terrorist attacks such as those made against the United States in September 2001 and various international locations since then may affect our business. We may face increased
competition if tanker companies that trade in Middle East trade routes seek to employ their vessels in other trade routes in which we actively trade.

Other significant operators of multiple Aframax and Suezmax tankers in the Atlantic basin that compete with us include OMI Corporation, Overseas Shipholding Group Inc., Teekay Shipping Corporation, Top Tankers, Inc.,
and General Maritime Corporation. There are also numerous, smaller tanker operators in the Atlantic basin.

Employees

We have no salaried employees. See Management ContractCrewing and Employees.

Properties

We operate out of Tsakos Energy
Management offices in the building also occupied by Tsakos Shipping at Megaron Makedonia, 367 Syngrou Avenue, Athens, Greece.

Legal proceedings

We are involved in litigation from time to time in the ordinary course of business. In our opinion, the litigation in which we are
currently involved, individually and in the aggregate, is not material to us.

|------- | --------------------------------------------

The
following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes to those statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report. This discussion includes
forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. As a result of many factors, such as those set forth under Risk Factors and elsewhere in this annual report our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated
in these forward-looking statements.

Overview

As at March 31, 2007, we operated a fleet of 40 modern tankers providing world-wide marine transportation services for national, major and other independent oil companies and refiners under long, medium and short-term charters. The
charter rates that we obtain for these services are determined in a highly competitive global tanker charter market. We operate our tankers in markets that have historically exhibited both cyclical and seasonal variations in demand and corresponding
fluctuations in charter rates. Tanker markets are typically stronger in the winter months as a result of increased oil consumption in the northern hemisphere. In addition, unpredictable weather conditions in the winter months tend to disrupt vessel
scheduling. The oil price volatility resulting from these factors has historically led to increased oil trading activities. Changes in available tanker capacity have also had a strong impact on tanker charter markets over the past 20 years.

Results from Operations2006

Despite only a modest growth in world oil demand of 1.0% and a notable increase in world tanker tonnage by 6.1%, 2006 again provided tanker operators with healthy revenues and profits. The most remarkable feature of 2006 from the point of
view of tanker trading was the strong third quarter, when rates are typically soft, and the correspondingly weak fourth quarter, when rates usually reach a peak. Part of the explanation of both peculiarities was the build up of inventories in OECD
countries in the third quarter due to geopolitical events and anticipation of meteorological conditions which reduced the need for tonnage in the fourth quarter. Also, US imports were lower due to the recovery of US oil and gas production and
increases in Canadian oil production. The increases in oil prices never actually surpassed the level that might curb world economic growth, indeed growth was 5.3% in 2006, but was at a level that encouraged exploration and exploitation of previously
uneconomic sources, thus helping to maintain production flows. However, high oil prices also impacted tanker profitability by increasing the cost of bunker and lubricants. The year also saw a further increase in US interest rates which naturally
impacted a capital-intensive industry, although in relative terms the cost of debt still remained low.

Our fleet achieved voyage revenues
net of commissions of $412.2 million, up by 45.1% from $284.0 million in 2005. Capital gains on the sale of three operating vessels and 49% of shares in a subsidiary, were $63.3 million. Operating income increased from $154.8 million in 2005 to
$205.2 million in 2006, a 32.6% increase. Net income was $196.4 million, compared to $161.8 million in the prior year, a 21.4% increase. Diluted income per share increased from $8.17 in 2005, based on 19.79 million diluted weighted average
shares outstanding, to $10.30 in 2006, based on 19.07 million diluted weighted average shares outstanding. These results reflect in part our move towards time charters with profit-sharings, by which protect the Company due to healthy minimum
rates during seasonal and unseasonable softening periods, while being able to take advantage of market conditions when rates peak.

Some of
the more significant developments for the Company during 2006 were:



| |  |  | The acquisition of VLCC La Prudenciaand product carrier Delphifrom the Tsakos Group and the transfer of two construction contracts for 1B ice-class
product carriers (Byzantionand Bosporos)to be delivered in 2007 for a total cost of $219 million.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The agreement to acquire for $530 million from Western Petroleum six 1A ice-class MR2 product carriers the Artemis, Afrodite, Ariadne, Aris, Apollonand
Ajaxand the construction contracts for three 1A ice-class LR2 product carriers the Proteas, Promitheas, and Propontiswhich were delivered to the Company within 2006.

The Company
operated the following types of vessels during, and at the end of, the year ended December 31, 2006:



|                                      |  |       |   |  |         |   |  |         |   |  |         |   |  |             |   |  |              |   |  |            |

We believe that the key factors which determined our financial performance in 2006, within the
given freight rate environment in which the Company operated, were:



| |  |  | the diversified aspect of the fleet which allowed the Company to take advantage of all tanker sectors;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the benefits of the new vessels acquired in recent years in terms of operating efficiencies and desirability on the part of charterers;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our balanced chartering strategy (discussed further below) which ensured a stable cash flow while allowing the Company to take advantage of the buoyant freight
market;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



38

##### Table of Contents

| |  |  | the long-established relationships with our chartering clients and the development of new relationships with renowned oil-majors;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the continued control over costs by our technical managers despite pressures caused by a weakening dollar and higher insurance, bunker fuel and lubricant costs;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our control over financial costs by negotiating competitive terms with reputable banks, refinancing at better terms, and protecting interest rate levels through
swap arrangements;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our ability to manage leverage levels through cash generation and repayment/prepayment of debt;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our ability to reward our shareholders through a dividend policy which is linked directly to the profitability of the Company;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the raising of new finance through bank debt, and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the sale of older vessels and newer vessels when attractive opportunities arose.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We believe that the above factors will also be those that will be behind the future financial performance of the Company and which are evident as we proceed through 2007, to which may be added:



| |  |  | a continuing buoyant market in comparison to historical levels;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the securing of a high level of utilization for our vessels (as at March 31, 2007, 76% of the remaining operational days available for 2007, excluding expected
new deliveries, have secured employment);
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the continued appetite by oil majors to fix forward on medium to long term charters at current market rates which are significantly higher than the historical
average.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the delivery of the 13 newbuildings that will join the fleet between March 31, 2007 and 2010 (seven of which are to be delivered during the remainder of 2007);
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the rapid development of new strategic areas with purpose-built vessels to access ice-bound ports and from February 2007 carry LNG (liquefied natural gas), and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the repurchase of common shares at favorable prices.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------

Looking forward and given increasing demand and the lack of clarity over oil production from Iran, Nigeria and Iraq, and continued discussion by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) about their
production levels, high oil prices may continue through 2007. The expected increasing demand from China and India will continue to have beneficial impact on transportation requirements for petroleum and its products in the foreseeable future.
Another indication of the strength of the market can be seen in continued demand growth despite price hikes. Historically, as oil prices have risen, some global consumers have been forced to curtail imports. However, in the current environment, it
appears that price has not dissuaded imports and, in fact in some instances, demand has actually increased.

We expect that 2007 should
once again prove to be a good year for the tanker industry. The aforementioned economic stimuli, coupled with geopolitical events in areas such as Nigeria, Iraq, Iran and Venezuela, should fuel the market providing new trading patterns with
long-haul requirements, again to the benefit of the industry. Additionally, new IMO and European Union regulations relating to the phase-out of single-hull tankers should have a significant impact on the rate environment.

Our current fleet consists of three VLCCs, nine suezmaxes, eleven aframaxes, five panamaxes, six handymaxes, five handysizes and one LNG. All vessels are
owned by our subsidiaries with the exception of the two

suezmaxes, Cape Baker and Cape Balboa (formerly Decathlon and Pentathlon), acquired in 2002 and sold in October and November
2003, respectively, that were time chartered back from the owners for five years. These two vessels are subject to repurchase options in the latter part of 2008 at a price of $47.5 million each which is well below current market value.

Subsequent Events



| | (a) | On January 10, 2007, the Company took delivery of the 1A ice-class suezmax Arctic and drew down on a related credit facility for $35.5 million. On February 6, 2007, the

General Market Overview  World Oil Demand / Supply and Trade

(Source: Galbraiths Ltd)

Higher oil prices
contributed to a further slowing in oil demand growth in 2006, however freight rates remained at extremely healthy levels on average. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA) annual average demand grew by 0.8m bpd to 84.5m bpd. This
compares to increases of 1.3m bpd in 2005 and 3.1m bpd in 2004.

##### Table of Contents

Strong demand growth in developing countries was partially offset by falls in oil demand growth in OECD
countries. China remained the main engine of growth, as Chinese demand grew by some 0.5m bpd to 7.2m bpd. This represented a robust annual average growth rate of 6.9% compared to 4.2% in 2005. Demand in North America fell by 1.0%, but most of the
decline was attributable to a sharp fall in fuel oil consumption due to differentials between fuel oil and natural gas prices, while demand for the main products: motor gasoline and gas/diesel oil continued to rise, supporting levels of products
imports.

Global oil supply grew by 0.9% or 0.8m bpd to 85.3m bpd. This modest level of growth masks the impact on seaborne trade of sharp
increases in production in the Former Soviet Union, Brazil and Angola which added a combined 0.8m bpd of output, and an increase of some 0.3m bpd in OPEC Middle East crude oil production. European (principally North Sea) production continued its
long-term decline, falling by some 0.4m bpd to 5.2m bpd.

Crude tanker demand growth was driven by resurgent growth in Chinese crude
imports which increased by 14% to 2.9m bpd, compared to growth of just 4% in 2005; 83% of these imports were sourced from long haul locations such as the Middle East, Africa and Latin America mainly using VLCCs. Other major developments included the
commissioning in July of the Baku-Tblisi-Ceyhan (BTC) pipeline which was reportedly transporting 420,000 bpd of Azeri crude oil by the end of the year and using mainly Suezmax tankers to export cargoes. In addition, first exports of crude oil were
also seen from the Sakhalin 1 project in Russias far east. Production from this field reached some 200,000 bpd in early 2007 with cargoes exported using ice-classed Aframax tankers.

Global crude oil trade tonne-miles are estimated to have risen by 1.5% in 2006. Crude oil tonne-mile growth was restrained by lower crude imports into
the U.S. early in the year when refineries were still affected by the 2005 hurricanes. The hurricanes also caused a very slight reduction in estimated crude oil tonne-miles growth in 2005 but lower crude imports were replaced by a sharp increase in
products imports to replace lost refinery production. Global crude oil trade tonne-miles are now estimated to have increased by 11% since 2002.

Geopolitical concerns and a temporary reduction in Alaskan production led to sharp increases in crude oil prices in July and August 2006 with the West Texas Intermediate spot price exceeding $77/bbl in early August. However, as fears over
crude oil supply disruption abated prices fell sharply to below $60/bbl in early October. This prompted action from OPEC which began reducing actual output as early as August and subsequently announced two reductions in targeted production levels,
by an initial 1.2m bpd from November and a further 500,000 bpd from February 2007.

As a result, OPEC crude oil production fell by some 1m bpd between August and December and benchmark earnings for VLCCs and Suezmaxes were weaker in the fourth quarter after a particularly strong 3rdquarter. In contrast, Aframax markets West of Suez were much less affected by OPEC production cuts, strengthening in the fourth quarter as was the
case in the previous 4 years.

In the products tanker markets the effects of the two hurricanes that hit the U.S. Gulf in August and
September 2005 were still being felt in the market in early 2006. Total U.S. products imports as reported by the U.S. Governments Energy Information Administration (EIA) were some 20% higher on average in the first half of 2006 vs the same
period in 2005. Products imports fell back in the second half of the year but remained some 12% higher on average than the levels seen in the first half of 2005. The ongoing strength of U.S. products imports undoubtedly played a major part in the
strength of the products tanker market in 2006.

Looking forward, the IEA predicts that global oil demand growth will accelerate to 1.55m
bpd in 2007 while the EIA predicts growth of 1.4m bpd. The increases will be led by further strong growth in China and the Middle East and renewed demand growth in North America.

On the oil supply side OPEC decided to leave its production targets unchanged at its latest meeting in March 2007 and scheduled its next meeting for
September 2007, indicating that the group was comfortable with existing quotas and the current prices levels (around $60/bbl at the time of the OPEC meeting).

Supply from Angola, which joined OPEC in January and is not yet subject to the quota agreements, is expected to rise by some 0.2m bpd on average in 2007 versus 2006. By the end of the year Angolan output is

##### Table of Contents

expected to reach 1.9m bpd, up from the current level of 1.5m bpd. Non-OPEC production (excluding Angola from last years total) is expected to rise by
some 1.1m bpd with the Former Soviet Union contributing an additional 0.5m bpd and Brazil adding 0.2m bpd.

While these predictions have
been shown to be subject to significant revision (both upwards and downwards) in recent years there are a number of structural factors in play that should ensure further strong growth in both crude oil and products trade over the next few years.

Rapidly growing demand, insufficient growth in domestic crude oil production, new refinery developments and strategic stock building in
China are expected to lead to further strong growth in crude oil imports. Demand growth and refinery capacity developments in other developing countries in Asia should also lead to increases in crude oil imports. In the case of India, significant
increases in both crude imports and exports of refined products are expected as export orientated refineries continue to be built.

It is
anticipated that growing oil demand in the U.S. will be met by a combination of both crude oil imports and products imports, even if use of domestically produced bio-fuels increases. Crude imports from nearby sources such as Mexico, Venezuela and
the North Sea are expected to decline therefore tonne-mile demand will increase due to both the overall level of imports and the increased distance. In addition, filling of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve will draw on domestic production which may
increase the import requirement.

In Europe, falling oil production in the North Sea will mean that Northwest Europes refineries will
increasingly need to source crude oil from outside of the region from areas such as the Former Soviet Union and West Africa. In addition Europe is faced with an imbalance in products markets with a growing surplus of gasoline, much of which is
exported to the United States, and a growing deficit of gas/diesel oil that is imported mainly from the Former Soviet Union and Asia. There has also been a recent proposal to build a pipeline that would divert more Russian crude exports away from
overland transport through Eastern Europe to be replaced by a combination of seaborne crude and products exports from the Baltic. This would generate additional tanker demand, including demand for ice-class tankers during the winter.

World Tanker Fleet

The supply side of the market is being shaped by the changes to MARPOL Annex 1 Regulation 13G, adopted in December 2003, which accelerated the phase-out schedule for non double hull tankers and changes to MARPOL Annex 2 and the IBC code
which came into effect on 1stJanuary 2007, affecting the type of tanker required for the carriage of vegetable
oils and chemicals.

The phase out of non double hulled tonnage will restrain the overall level of fleet growth over the next 5 years, but the timing of
the removal of non double hull vessels from the fleet will be crucial since the regulations permit most of the remaining non double hulled vessels to trade until 2010. The regulations also provide for exemptions that can be granted by Flag States
and Port States to permit vessels to continue trading after 2010 under certain conditions. The regulatory changes have already created a multi-tiered market in which modern double hulled tankers command higher rates than non double hulled tankers.

The changes to MARPOL Annex 2 and the IBC code mean that vegetable oils, with an estimated seaborne trade figure of 45m tonnes in 2006, are now required
to be carried in IMO type 2 chemical tankers or at least IMO type 3 chemical carriers with double hulls. These cargoes can no longer be carried in products carriers, as many of these cargoes had been previously. As a result recycling of older
products carriers has increased sharply in the first quarter of 2007, and the increased competition for those vessels that are eligible to carry vegetable oils has supported the market for tankers to transport clean petroleum products.

Fleet Development

The total world tanker fleet grew by some 6% to
384m dwt in 2006. Further heavy ordering of new tankers meant that 136m dwt was on order to be delivered at the start of 2007, equivalent to 35% of the existing fleet. However, there was still 104m dwt of non double hulled tonnage that will become
ineligible to trade in oil cargoes under the IMO phase out.



42

##### Table of Contents

Since only a quarter of the non double hull fleet is due to be
phased out under MARPOL Annex 1 prior to 2010, whereas some 85% of the orderbook is due to be delivered before the end of 2009, relatively strong fleet growth is expected to continue from 2007 to 2009 even though some vessels will be removed from
the fleet in advance of the mandatory phase out date for special projects such as FPSO conversion. The orderbook is skewed towards 2009, with just over 1/3rdof the orderbook at the end of 2006 scheduled for delivery in 2009, compared to about 25% each in 2007 and 2008 with the remainder in 2010 and beyond.

Recycling

Tanker recycling has been very limited in recent years due
to the strength of the freight and second hand sale and purchase markets. No VLCCs or Suezmaxes were sold for recycling in 2005 and just 3m dwt of other deep sea tankers were reportedly sold for recycling.

The age profile of the VLCC and Suezmax fleets mean that there are very few vessels that appear to be likely candidates for demolition in 2007 but a number of non double
hulled vessels have been reported as being sold for various conversion projects that will result in them leaving the trading fleet in the next couple of years. In the Aframax and Panamax sectors there are more early 1980s built non double hulled
tankers remaining which will face mandatory phase out between 2007 and 2009. In the MR products carrier sector sales for recycling have increased sharply in the first quarter of 2007 due to the regulatory changes with respect to carriage of
vegetable oils.

Levels of tanker recycling are expected to increase as the end of the decade approaches as increasing numbers of double hulled vessels are
delivered and trading opportunities for non double hulled vessels will be much more limited from 2010 due to the IMO phase out.

Vessel Prices

Newbuildings

Tanker newbuilding prices rose by
levels that were generally in the region of 5-15% across the year in 2006.

Prices were driven higher by a combination of several factors including:



| |  |  | Very strong ordering of tankers spurred on by the ongoing strength of the tanker market, the need to replace non double hulled tonnage and owners anticipation
of strong tanker demand growth in the future.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Strong levels of competition at yards due to high levels of contracting in the dry cargo, containership and LNG sectors.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The adoption of the Common Structural Rules (CSR) for tankers and bulk carriers by the International Association of
Classification Societies (IACS) from 1stApril. One of the effects of the new rules has been to increase the amount
of steel that is required to be used in building both tankers and bulk carriers.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Orders for new tankers totaling approximately 80m dwt
were placed in 2006. This is the highest amount of tanker tonnage recorded to have been contracted since the early 1970s and represented an increase of some 180% versus 2005s level.

As a result of the heavy ordering some yards had, by the end of 2006, filled their forward orderbooks through to the end of the decade, and orders for new tankers were
already being placed for delivery as far in advance as 2011.

In the VLCC sector, as many as 100 vessels were reported to have been contracted in 2006 and
as a result the orderbook at the start of 2007 had increased to 176 vessels for delivery between 2007 and 2011. Many of the new contracts were placed at Chinese yards, with China edging marginally ahead of Japan in terms of reported vessels on order
with 30% of the total orderbook compared to 29% at Japanese yards. South Korean yards still held the greatest number of VLCC orders with the remaining 41% of the total. Estimated VLCC newbuilding prices in South Korea had risen to around $128m by
the end of 2006 while prices at Chinese yards were in the region of $120m.

##### Table of Contents

In the Suezmax sector, some 70 vessels were contracted in 2006. Heavy ordering at Chinese yards meant that at the end of
the year the percentage of the total orderbook, of some 105 vessels, at Chinese yards stood at about 35%. This compared to 14% at Japanese yards and 50% at South Korean yards, with one vessel on order in Croatia. By the end of the year estimated
prices had risen to around $79m at South Korean yards and $74m at Chinese yards.

There was also heavy contracting in the Aframax sector with some 150
orders placed. There was significant interest in coated tonnage which owners felt would give them the option to trade in clean products in the future particularly if, as many have predicted, there is a considerable increase in long haul products
exports from the Middle East and India. As a result about 25% of the orderbook of some 225 Aframaxes at the end of 2006 was believed to be comprised of orders for fully coated tonnage.

Estimated prices for uncoated Aframaxes at South Korea yards had risen to around $65m by the end of 2006 and $68m for a coated vessel. Comparative prices at Chinese yards stood at around $62m for an uncoated vessel
and $64m for a coated vessel.

Contracts for about 50 Panamax tankers were placed in 2006, almost exclusively for coated vessels and mainly at Chinese and
South Korean shipyards. Prices for these vessels in South Korea were estimated to be in the region of $58m at the end of the year although no new orders were reported in the last two months of the year.

In the medium range products carrier sector (defined here as tankers of 30,000 dwt to 55,000 dwt) there was very heavy ordering of new tankers. Some 340 vessels were
reported to have been ordered throughout 2006, although this includes some vessels that will likely trade more often in chemicals than in petroleum products. Around 75% of the vessels that were ordered fall into the large MR segment of vessels of
45,000 dwt +.

Prices for these larger MR tankers at South Korean shipyards were estimated to be in the region of $47m at South Korean shipyards and $44.5m
at Chinese shipyards at the end of 2006.

Newbuilding prices have shown no sign of weakening in early 2007 as shipyards have long forward orderbooks. Heavy
ordering has continued particularly in the dry bulk carrier sector, and new regulations regarding the coating of ballast tanks of newly contracted ships are also acting to support or even increase prices.

Secondhand Values

Secondhand values of double hulled tankers also
increased throughout 2006. The ongoing strength of the freight market meant that promptly available tonnage was still valued at a premium, and newbuilding re-sales and recently delivered vessels were purchased at values substantially higher than the
cost of ordering a new vessel for delivery towards the end of the decade or in 2010. In some cases 5-year old vessels were also priced at higher levels than newbuilding orders. A number of modern vessels were reported to have been sold to financial
interests with charters back to their original owners, but the rising prices restricted the number of straight secondhand sales of modern tankers.

Earnings

Tanker market spot freight rates remained at firm levels on average in 2006, although markets fluctuated substantially on a
monthly and weekly basis. The overall strength of the freight market continued to demonstrate the tight balance of supply and demand that has developed as a result of strong tanker demand growth since 2003.

VLCCs

Benchmark VLCC spot market earnings in 2006 were marginally
higher than in 2005 on an annual average basis. Just 17 newbuildings were delivered into the fleet, the lowest number since 1998. Although no VLCCs were reported to have been sold for recycling and the fleet grew by 4%, strong growth in demand for
VLCCs to transport cargoes from West Africa, the Middle East and South America to China helped to support the market.

The market followed a typical seasonal pattern in the first half of the 2006 with high freight rates in the first quarter and a weaker market in the second quarter. However freight rates in the 3rdquarter were higher than in recent years as

##### Table of Contents

OPEC raised production in response to sharply rising crude oil prices caused by political events and reduced Alaskan supply. As oil prices fell in the
4thquarter OPEC trimmed crude oil output and this led to a weaker freight market in the last few months of the
year. In the first quarter of 2007, benchmark VLCC earnings averaged approximately $58,000/day.

Suezmax

Freight rates in the Suezmax spot market also remained at very firm levels in 2006, just slightly below 2005s average. 25 vessels were recorded as having been
delivered in 2006, a similar level of deliveries as had been witnessed in each of the previous 5 years. No Suezmaxes were sold for recycling in 2006 and the internationally trading crude oil fleet increased by some 7% across the year.

Suezmax freight rates followed a similar trend to the VLCCs in the first 3 quarters of the year but the market retained more strength in the last quarter. The Suezmax
sector is generally less exposed to changes in OPEC production and the commencement of exports from the BTC pipeline in the middle of the year generated additional demand for Suezmaxes in the second half. The market has remained generally firm in
the first quarter of 2007, with benchmark Suezmax earnings averaging approximately $48,000/day.

Aframax

The Aframax fleet increased by some 6% in 2006. Benchmark time charter equivalent spot market earnings were slightly lower on average in 2006 than in 2005, with falls in
the North Sea market, the Mediterranean and East of Suez markets. Rates in the Caribbean market were, in contrast, marginally higher than in 2005.

Freight rates in the Aframax market followed a more typical seasonal pattern than in the VLCC and Suezmax markets
with strong earnings in the 1stand 4thquarters during the Northern Hemisphere winter. However, freight rates in the third quarter were also unseasonably strong due to the high volumes of OPEC
production. In the fourth quarter, which proved to be the strongest of the year, the Aframax market was resilient to the reductions in OPEC production with the exception of the market east of Suez. The market west of Suez was once again affected by
delays in the Turkish Straits which tied up tonnage and a large increase in exports from the Baltic in December helped to create a sharp spike in the market. In the first quarter of 2007 benchmark Aframax average earnings have been roughly equal to
those in the fourth quarter of 2006 at approximately $38,000/day.

Products Tankers

Spot market earnings in the products tanker markets were lower on average in 2006 than in 2005 when disruption to the U.S. Gulf refining system was severely disrupted by two hurricanes thereby creating a huge products
import requirement.

There was substantial fleet growth with some 130 medium range (MR) tankers delivered while 30 MRs are believed to have been sold for
recycling. This meant that at the end of the year the total fleet comprised around 1,300 vessels involved in mineral oil, chemicals and vegetable oil trades.

At the start of 2006 freight rates were still being influenced by the effect of the hurricanes and particularly strong earnings were recorded. Thereafter rates were somewhat weaker on average but earnings in the market west of Suez remained
strong in general while rates east of Suez were subject to greater fluctuations. During the first quarter of 2007 earnings for MR tankers have strengthened considerably particularly in the markets west of Suez. The strength of the market can be
attributed to factors such as: increased imports into the U.S.; refinery outages in West Africa; and the effects of the new rules regarding the carriage of vegetable oils and chemicals that have led to increased scrapping and drawn some vessels away
from the mineral oils market.

Chartering Strategy

We typically charter our vessels to third parties in any of three basic types of charter. First are voyage charters or spot voyages, under which a shipowner is paid freight on the basis of
moving cargo from a loading port to a discharging port at a given rate per ton or other unit of cargo. Port charges, bunkers and other voyage expenses (in addition to normal vessel operating expenses) are the responsibility of the shipowner. Second
are time charters, under which a shipowner is paid hire on a per day basis for a given period of time. Normal vessel operating



45



---

##### Table of Contents

expenses, such as maintenance and repair, crew wages and insurance premiums, are incurred by the shipowner, while voyage expenses, including bunkers and port
charges, are the responsibility of the charterer. The time charterer decides the destination and types of cargoes to be transported, subject to the terms of the charter. Time charters can be for periods of time ranging from one or two months to more
than three years. Time charters can also be evergreen, which means that they automatically renew for successive terms unless the shipowner or the charterer elects to terminate the charter. Third are bareboat charters under
which the shipowner is paid a fixed amount of hire for a given period of time. The charterer is responsible for substantially all the costs of operating the vessel including voyage expenses, vessel operating expenses and technical and commercial
management. Longer-term time charters and bareboat charters are sometimes known as period charters. We also enter into contracts of affreightment which are contracts for multiple employments that provide for periodic
adjustments, within prescribed ranges, to the charter rates. Two of our vessels also operate within a pool of similar vessels whereby all income (less voyage expenses) is earned on a market basis and shared between pool participants on the basis of
a formula which takes into account the vessels age, size and technical features.

The chartering strategy of the Company continues to
be one of fixing the greater portion of our fleet on medium to long-term employment in order to secure a stable income flow, but one which also ensures a satisfactory return. This strategy has enabled the Company to level the affects of the cyclical
nature of the tanker industry, achieving almost optimal utilization of the fleet. In order to capitalize on possible upturns in rates, the Company has chartered out several of its vessels on a market basis. We currently have 30 of our 40 vessels
managed on time charter or other form of period employment, ensuring that at least 76% of 2007 availability and 60% of 2008 is already fixed.

The Board of Directors, through its Chartering Committee, formulates the chartering strategy of the Company and the Companys commercial manager Tsakos Energy Management implements this strategy through the technical manager, Tsakos
Shipping. They evaluate the opportunities for each type of vessel, taking into account the strategic preference for medium and long-term charters and ensure optimal positioning to take account of redelivery opportunities at advantageous rates.

The cooperation with the Tsakos Group enables the Company to take advantage of the long-established relationships built by the Tsakos
Group with many of the worlds major oil companies and refiners. The Tsakos Group has built these relationships over 35 years of existence and high quality commercial and technical service. Tsakos Shipping manages the vessels of the Company
plus another 24 operating vessels, mostly container vessels and single hull tankers. Apart from the customer relations, the Company is also able to take advantage of the inherent economies of scale associated with a large fleet manager and its
commitment to contain running costs without jeopardizing the vessels operations. Tsakos Shipping provides top grade officers and crew for the Companys vessels and first class superintendent engineers and port captains to ensure that the
vessels are in prime condition.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The Companys significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 of the attached
consolidated financial statements. The application of such policies may require management to make estimates and assumptions. We believe that the following are the more critical accounting estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated
financial statements that involve a higher degree of judgment and could have a significant impact on our future consolidated results of operations and financial position:

Revenue recognition. Our vessels are employed under a variety of charter contracts, including time, bare-boat and voyage charters, contracts of affreightment and pool arrangements. Time and bare-boat
charter revenues are recorded over the term of the charter as the service is provided. Revenues from voyage charters on the spot market or under contract of affreightment are recognized on the proportional performance method using the discharge to
discharge basis. Vessel voyage and operating expenses and charter hire expense are accounted for in the period incurred on an accrual basis. Vessel voyage and operating expenses of vessels operating under a tanker pool are aggregated by the pool
manager and net operating revenues, calculated on a time charter equivalent basis, are allocated to the pool participants according to an agreed upon formula. As at the reporting date, revenues from variable hire arrangements are recognized to the
extent the amounts are fixed and determinable at that date.

##### Table of Contents

Depreciation. We depreciate our vessels on a straight-line basis over their estimated
useful lives, after considering their estimated residual values, based on the assumed value of the scrap steel available for recycling after demolition, calculated at $180 per lightweight ton. In assessing the useful lives of vessels, we have
adopted the industry-wide accepted practice of assuming a vessel has a useful life of 25 years (40 years for the LNG carrier), given that all classification society rules have been adhered to concerning survey certification and statutory regulations
are followed.

Impairment. The carrying value of the Companys vessels includes the original cost of the vessels plus
capitalized expenses since acquisition relating to improvements and upgrading of the vessel, less accumulated depreciation. Carrying value also includes the unamortized portion of deferred special survey and dry-docking costs. The carrying value of
vessels usually differs from the fair market value applicable to any vessel, as market values fluctuate continuously depending on the market supply and demand conditions for vessels, as determined primarily by prevailing freight rates and
newbuilding costs.

In order to identify indicators of impairment, test for recoverability of each vessels carrying value and if
necessary, measure the required impairment charges, management regularly compares each vessels carrying amount with the average of its fair market values as provided by two independent and reputable brokers. In the event that an indicator of
impairment exists because a vessels carrying value is in excess of its fair market value, management estimates the undiscounted future cash flows to be generated by each of the Companys vessels in order to assess the recoverability of
the vessels carrying value. These estimates are based on historical industry freight rate averages for each category of vessel taking into account the age, specifications and likely trading pattern of each vessel and the likely condition and
operating costs of each vessel. Such estimations are inevitably subjective and actual freight rates may be volatile. As a consequence, estimations may differ considerably from actual results.

The estimations also take into account new regulations regarding the permissible trading of tankers depending on their structure and age. As a
consequence of new European Union regulations effective from October 2003, the IMO adopted new regulations in December 2003 regarding early phase out of non-double hull tankers. At March 31, 2007, the Company owned only double-hulled vessels.

While management, therefore, is of the opinion that the assumptions it has used in assessing whether there are grounds for impairment are
justifiable and reasonable, the possibility remains that conditions in future periods may vary significantly from current assumptions, which may result in a material impairment loss.

In the event that the undiscounted future cash flows do not exceed a vessels carrying value, an impairment charge is required, and the
vessels carrying value is written down to the fair market value as determined above. As vessel values are also volatile, the actual market value of a vessel may differ significantly from estimated values within a short period of time.

Allowance for doubtful accounts. Revenue is based on contracted charter parties and although our business is with customers
whom we believe to be of the highest standard, there is always the possibility of dispute over terms and payment of freight and demurrage. In particular, disagreements may arise as to the responsibility for lost time and demurrage revenue due to the
Company as a result. As such, we periodically assess the recoverability of amounts outstanding and we estimate a provision if there is a possibility of non-recoverability. Although we believe our provisions to be based on fair judgment at the time
of their creation, it is possible that an amount under dispute is not ultimately recovered and the estimated provision for doubtful recoverability is inadequate.

Amortization of deferred charges. In accordance with Classification Society requirements, a special survey is performed on our vessels every five years. A further intermediate survey takes place in
between special surveys, depending on the age of the vessel, generally every 2.5 years. In most cases a dry-docking is necessary with work undertaken to bring the vessel up to the condition required for the vessel to be given its classification
certificate. The costs include the yard charges for labor, materials and services, possible new equipment and parts where required, plus part of the participating crew costs incurred during the survey period. We defer these charges and amortize them
over the period up to the vessels next scheduled dry-docking.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. This Interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprises
financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. It applies to all tax positions accounted for in accordance with Statement 109. The Interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and
measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position expected to be taken in a tax return. It is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company does not believe that the
adoption of Interpretation No. 48 will have any impact on its earnings and financial position.

In September 2006, the FASB issued
Statement 157, Fair Value Measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement applies under other accounting pronouncements that
require or permit fair value measurements and, therefore, the Statement does not require any new fair value measurements. The Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company
does not believe that the adoption of Statement 157 will have a material impact on its results of operations and financial position.

In
September 2006, with the release of Staff Accounting Bulletin 108 (SAB 108) Considering the effects of prior year misstatements when quantifying misstatements in current year financial statement the SEC staff provided
interpretative guidance on the consideration of the effects of prior year misstatements in quantifying current year misstatements for the purpose of a materiality assessment. The adoption of this SEC release did not have an effect on the
Companys financial position or results of operations.

In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement 159, The Fair Value Option
for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. This Statement permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. The objective
of the Statement is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings. It also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between
entities. This Statement does not affect any existing accounting literature that requires certain assets and liabilities to be carried at fair value. The Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after
November 15, 2007. The Company does not believe that the adoption of Statement 159 will have a material impact on its results of operations and financial position.

Basis of Presentation and General Information

Voyage revenues. Revenues are generated from
freight billings and time charters. Time and bare-boat charter revenues are recorded over the term of the charter as the service is provided. Revenues from voyage charters on the spot market or under contract of affreightment are recognized on the
proportional performance method using the discharge to discharge basis. Net operating revenues of vessels operating under a tanker pool are calculated on a time charter equivalent basis and are allocated to the pool participants according to an
agreed upon formula. Unearned revenue represents cash received prior to the year end and is related to revenue applicable to periods after December 31 of each year.

Time Charter Equivalent (TCE) allows vessel operators to compare the revenues of vessels that are on voyage charters with those on time charters. For vessels on voyage charters, we calculate TCE by taking
revenues earned on the voyage and deducting the voyage costs and dividing by the actual number of net earning days. For vessels on bareboat charters, for which we do not incur either voyage or operating costs, we calculate TCE by taking revenues
earned on the charter and adding a representative amount for the vessels operating expenses. TCE differs from average daily revenue earned in that TCE is based on revenues before commissions and does not take into account off-hire days.

##### Table of Contents

Commissions. We pay commissions on all chartering arrangements to Tsakos Shipping, as our broker,
and to any other broker we employ. Each of these commissions generally amounts to 1.25% of the daily charter hire or lump sum amount payable under the charter. In addition, on some trade routes, we may pay the charterer an address commission ranging
from 1.25% to 3.75% of the daily charter hire or lump sum amount payable under the charter. These commissions, as well as changes in prevailing charter rates, will cause our commission expenses to fluctuate from period to period.

Voyage expenses. Voyage expenses include all our costs, other than vessel operating expenses, that are related to a voyage, including port
charges, canal dues and bunker fuel costs.

Charter hire expense. We hire certain vessels from third-party owners or operators for a
contracted period and rate in order to charter the vessels to our customers. These vessels may be hired when an appropriate market opportunity arises or as part of a sale and lease back transaction. Currently, we hire two vessels (Cape Baker
and Cape Balboa), which have been hired as part of sale and leaseback transactions as described in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Vessel operating expenses. These expenses consist primarily of manning, hull and machinery insurance, P&I insurance, repairs and maintenance and stores and lubricant costs.

Management fees. These are the fixed fees we pay to Tsakos Energy Management under our management agreement with them. As of January 1, 2003
all vessels had a management fee of $15,000 per month until June 30, 2004. Beginning July 1, 2004, the amount increased to $18,000 monthly, except for chartered-in vessels, where the fee decreased to $12,500 per month. The management
agreement has been amended effective January 1, 2007, to raise the monthly fee to $20,000 per owned vessel and $15,000 for vessels chartered-in or chartered out on a bare-boat basis, with a prorated adjustment if at each year end the Euro has
appreciated by 10% or more against the Dollar since the beginning of the year.

Depreciation. We depreciate our vessels on a
straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, after considering their estimated scrap values, calculated at $180 per lightweight ton. In assessing the useful lives of vessels, we have estimated them to be 25 years (40 years for the LNG
carrier), which is in line with the industry wide accepted practice, assuming that all classification society rules have been adhered to concerning survey certification and statutory regulations are followed. Useful life is ultimately dependent on
customer demand and if customers were to reject our vessels, either because of new regulations or internal specifications, then the useful life of the vessel will require revision.

Amortization of deferred charges. We amortize the costs of drydocking and special surveys
of each of our ships over the period up to the ships next scheduled dry-docking (generally 21/2years).
These charges are part of the normal costs we incur in connection with the operation of our fleet.

Impairment loss. An
impairment loss for an asset held for use should be recognized when indicators of impairment exist and when the estimate of undiscounted cash flows, expected to be generated by the use of the asset is less than its carrying amount (the vessels
net book value plus any unamortized deferred drydocking charges). Measurement of the impairment loss is based on the fair value of the asset as provided by third parties. In this respect, management reviews regularly the carrying amount of the
vessels in connection with the estimated recoverable amount for each of the Companys vessels. There were no impairment losses in the years 2003 to 2006.

As at December 31, 2006, the market value of our fleet (excluding three chartered-in vessels) was approximately $2.2 billion, according to valuations received from an independent and reputable broker. On the
basis of these valuations, we determined that no impairment of the carrying value of any vessel, including older vessels, was required.

General and administrative expenses. These expenses consist primarily of professional fees, office supplies, advertising costs, directors liability insurance, and reimbursement of our directors and officers
travel-related expenses.

Financial Analysis

(Percentage changes are based on the full numbers in the accompanying consolidated financial statements)

Year ended December 31,
2006 versus year ended December 31, 2005

Revenue from vessels, net

Revenue from vessels was $427.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2006 as compared to $295.6 million during the year ended December 31,
2005, a 44.7% increase partly resulting from an increase in the number of vessels from an average of 26.1 in 2005 to an average of 33.8 in 2006, and partly from the improvement in charter rates. The average time charter equivalent rate per vessel
achieved for the year 2006 was $30,154 per day compared to $28,645 for the previous year. During the course of 2006, one VLCC, two new ice-class suezmaxes, three new ice-class LR2 aframax product carriers, six new ice-class MR2 handymax product
carriers, and three new handysize product carriers were acquired or newly-delivered. Three vessels were sold. The fleet had 97.4% employment compared to 96.5% in the previous year, mainly because dry-docking activity was slightly less in 2006.

Commissions

Commissions were $15.4
million, or 3.6% of revenue from vessels, during 2006, compared to $11.6 million, 3.9% of revenue from vessels, for 2005. The decrease was due to changes in employment of several vessels to charter arrangements where lower commission was charged.
The newly acquired vessels were employed on similar charters.

Voyage expenses

Voyage expenses include all our costs, other than operating expenses and commissions, that are related to a voyage, including port charges, agents
fees, canal dues and bunker (fuel) costs. Voyage expenses were $69.1 million during the year ended December 31, 2006 compared to $36.0 million during the prior year, a 92.0% increase. Although voyage expenses are highly dependent on the voyage
patterns followed, much of the increase can be explained by the fact that the total operating days on spot charter and contract of affreightment increased from 3,503 days in 2005 to 5,559 days in 2006. In addition, the cost of bunkers (fuel) which
accounts for 67.6% total voyage expenses in 2006 increased by 26% from 2005 to 2006 due to the significant increase in the price of oil during 2006.

Charter hire expense

Charter hire expense was $24.3 million for 2005 and $24.5 million for 2006, with the same three
vessels chartered in throughout the entire year, Olympia, Cape Baker and Cape Balboa.

Vessel operating expenses

Vessel operating expenses include crew costs, maintenance, repairs, spares, stores, lubricants, insurance and sundry expenses such as tonnage tax,
registration fees, and communication costs. Total operating costs were $76.1 million during 2006 compared to $52.9 million during 2005, an increase of 43.7%. This increase is directly related to the increase in the size of the fleet.

Operating expenses per ship per day for the fleet increased from $6,534 for 2005 to $6,979 for 2006, a 6.8% increase. This increase primarily reflects
increases in lubricant prices and insurance premiums.

Depreciation

Depreciation was $59.1 million during 2006 compared to $35.7 million during 2005, an increase of 65.4%, due to the addition of fifteen new, mostly high-value, vessels offset by the sale of two small older vessels,
Libra and Crux, and the panamax Aztec.

Amortization

We amortize the cost of drydocking and special surveys over the period to the next dry-docking, and this amortization is included as part of the normal costs we incur in connection with the operation of our vessels. During 2006,
amortization of deferred drydocking charges was $4.9 million as compared to $6.6 million during 2005, a decrease of 26.2%. The decrease was partly due to the sale of two vessels in 2006 on which there were still balances of unamortized deferred
dry-docking charges and the fact that only two vessels had completed dry-docking during 2006.

Management fees

Management fees are the fixed fees per vessel the Company pays to Tsakos Energy Management Limited under a management agreement between the companies.
During 2006, the Company paid to Tsakos Energy Management Limited fixed monthly fees per vessel under the management agreement. The monthly fee during 2006 and 2005 was $18,000 for all vessels except the chartered-in vessels, where the fee was
$12,500 per month. The fee pays for services that cover both the management of the individual vessels and of the Company as a whole. Management fees totaled $7.1 million for 2006 compared to $5.5 million for 2005, an increase of 30.1%, due to the
increase in number of vessels in the fleet.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of professional fees, office supplies, advertising costs, directors liability insurance,
directors fees and reimbursement of our directors and officers travel-related expenses. General and administrative expenses were $3.7 million during 2006 compared to $3.6 million during 2005, an increase of 2.6% due to additional
traveling expenditure relating to new projects undertaken during the year, as well as due to increase in audit fees.

Total general and
administrative expenses plus management fees paid to Tsakos Energy Management Limited represents the overhead of the Company. On a per vessel basis, daily overhead costs decreased from $954 in 2005 to $878 in 2006, mainly due to the increase in size
of the fleet. If the incentive award described below is taken into account, the 2006 daily overhead cost is $1,162 compared to $1,217 for 2005.

Management incentive award

In accordance with the management agreement between the Company and Tsakos Energy Management
Limited, $3.5 million is due as an award to Tsakos Energy Management Limited due to the success of the Company during 2006 for exceeding a targeted return of 25% on opening equity for 2006. In the previous year, an award of $2.5 million was achieved
for exceeding the 25% target.

Amortization of the deferred gain on the sale of vessels.

The Company sold two suezmaxes in a sale and leaseback transaction during 2003. The total gain of $15.8 million was deferred and is being amortized over
the five year minimum charter period. The amortization of this gain amounted to $3.2 million for both 2005 and 2006.

Gain on sale of vessels

During 2006, the Company sold the handysize product carriers Libra and Crux to the same buyer for a total of $32.3
million, resulting in a gain of $13.3 million, and the panamax Aztecwas also sold for $58.5 million resulting in a gain of $24.7 million. In 2005, the Company sold five operating tankers for gains totaling $34.5 million.

Operating income

Income from vessel operations was
$205.2 million during 2006 versus $154.8 million during 2005, a 32.6% increase.

##### Table of Contents

Gain on the sale of non-operating vessels

There were no sales of non-operating vessels during 2006. During 2005, one newbuilding hull was sold resulting in a gain of $10.8 million.

Gain on sale of shares in subsidiary

During the
fourth quarter 2006, the Company completed its sale to Flopec of Ecuador of 49% of the shareholdings of the holding company of the two vessel-owning companies which hold the panamax vessels Maya and Inca. The sale resulted in
recognition of a gain of $25.3 million.

Net interest and finance costs

Net interest and finance costs were $42.5 million for 2006 compared to $11.2 million for 2005, a 277.8% increase. Loan interest increased to $54.7 million
from $19.1 million, a 186.4% increase. Total weighted average bank loans outstanding were approximately $933 million for 2006 compared to $416 million for 2005. The average loan financing cost in 2006, considering the impact of swap interest, was
5.59% compared to 4.40% for 2005.

There was a net positive movement of $2.6 million, including reclassification adjustments on
undesignated cash flow hedges, in the fair value (mark-to-market) of the non-hedging interest rate swaps in 2006 compared to $3.2 million for 2005. During 2005 a deferred swap gain of $1.7 million was fully recognized in income on repayment of the
related loan.

Capitalized interest in 2006 was $12.5 million compared to $5.3 million in the previous year, due to the additional number
of vessels under construction during 2006, as well as the increase in interest rates.

Amortization of loan expenses was $1.5 million in 2006 and $1.0
million in 2005. Other loan charges, including commitment fees were $1.4 million in both 2006 and 2005.

Interest income

Interest income derived from bank deposits and investments, including the net positive changes in the market values of the investments was $7.2 million
for 2006 as compared to $7.4 million for 2005.

Net income

As a result of the foregoing, net income for 2006 was $196.4 million, or $10.30 per share, basic, versus $161.8 million or $8.18 per share, basic, for 2005, an increase of 25.9% per share.

Year ended December 31, 2005 versus year ended December 31, 2004

Voyage revenue

Revenue from vessels was $295.6 million during 2005 as compared to $318.3 million during 2004, a 7.1%
decrease primarily resulting from a decrease in the number of vessels from an average of 27.3 in 2004 to an average of 26.1 in 2005, and partly from a fall in charter rates. The average time charter equivalent rate per vessel for the year 2005 was
$28,645 per day compared to $28,722 for the previous year. In addition, the fleet had 96.5% employment compared to 97.6% in the previous year, due to extra days in dry-docking (three vessels in 2005 compared to one in 2004).

Commissions

Commissions were $11.6 million, or 3.9%
of revenue from vessels, during 2005, compared to $13.1 million, which was 4.1% of revenue from vessels, for 2004. The savings in commission was primarily due to changes in charters with lower brokers commission rates.

##### Table of Contents

Voyage expenses

Voyage expenses include all our costs, other than operating expenses and commission that are related to a voyage, including port charges, agents fees, canal dues and bunker or fuel costs. Voyage expenses were
$36.0 million during 2005 compared to $42.1 million during the prior year, a 14.6% decrease. This is mainly explained by the fall in total operating days on spot charter and contract of affreightment (under which contracts the owner bears voyage
expenses), primarily due to the time-chartering of vessels previously on spot charter to time-charter or to pool employment. However, the overall decrease in voyage costs was offset by further increases of up to 30% in bunker costs during 2005 as a
consequence of higher oil prices.

Charter hire expense

Charter hire expense remained steady at $24.3 million for both 2005 and 2004, with the same three vessels chartered-in throughout the entire year, Olympia, Cape Baker and Cape Balboa.

Vessel operating expenses

Vessel operating expenses
include crew costs, maintenance repairs and spares, stores, lubricants, insurance and sundry expenses such as tonnage tax, registration fees, and communication costs. Total operating costs were $52.9 million during 2005 as compared to $53.9 million
during 2004, a slight decrease of 1.8%. This is partly due to a decrease in operating days over the previous year of those vessels bearing operating expenses (i.e. all vessels except chartered-in and bare-boat chartered out) by approximately 457
days or 5%.

Operating expenses per ship per day for the fleet increased from $6,286 for 2004 to $6,534 for 2005, a 3.9% increase.
Increased insurance costs and cost of lubricants contributed to increase running costs, but generally the increase was mitigated by the sale of older vessels and the continued introduction of new more cost efficient vessels.

Depreciation

Depreciation was $35.7 million during
2005 compared to $35.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2004, an increase of 0.9%. Depreciation expense remained almost steady due to the sale of vessels Pella, Dion and Tamyrain 2005 and Toula Zin late 2004. This was
offset by the addition of vessels Didimon, Euronike and Eurochampion 2004 in 2005 and Dionisos which was acquired and sold in the same year. The sale of Panos Gdid not affect depreciation as it was fully
depreciated in 2002.

Amortization

We
amortize the cost of dry-docking and special surveys over the period to the next scheduled dry-docking and this amortization is included as part of the normal costs we incur in connection with the operation of our vessels. During 2005, amortization
of deferred dry-docking charges was $6.6 million as compared to $8.8 million during 2004, a decrease of 24.8%. The decrease is due in part to the reduced level of dry-docking repairs undertaken in 2004 and the early part of 2005 compared to previous
years and partly due also to the sale of vessels which included substantial amounts of deferred charges in their carrying value.

Management fees

Management fees are the fixed fees per vessel the Company pays to Tsakos Energy Management Ltd. under a management agreement between
the companies. From January 1, 2002 to June 30, 2004 each vessel bore a management fee of $15,000 per month, payable by the Company to Tsakos Energy Management Ltd. This was increased to $18,000 per month as from July 1, 2004 for
owned vessels and reduced to $12,500 for the three chartered-in vessels. Management fees totaled $5.5 million during 2005, compared to $5.3 million for 2004, an increase of 2.5%.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of professional fees, office supplies, advertising costs, directors liability insurance, and reimbursement of our directors and officers
travel-related expenses. General and administrative expenses were $3.6 million during 2005 compared to $3.1 million during 2004.

The sum
of general and administrative expenses plus management fees payable to Tsakos Energy Management represents the overheads of the Company. On a per vessel basis, daily overhead costs increased from $844 in 2004 to $954 in 2005, due to the factors
mentioned above. The addition of the new management incentive award in 2004 and 2005, as described below, increased the daily overhead per vessel from $1,094 for 2004, to $1,217 for 2005.

Management incentive award

In accordance with a
revised management agreement between the Company and its managers, dated September 28, 2004, and with the Board of Directors decision of February 28, 2006, $2.5 million is due as an award to Tsakos Energy Management in achieving for
the Company a return on equity for 2005 in excess of 25%. A similar award was made in 2004.

Amortization of the deferred gain on the sale of vessels

The Company sold two suezmaxes in a sale and leaseback transaction in the fourth quarter of 2003. The total gain of $15.8 million has
been deferred and is being amortized over the five year minimum charter period. For both years 2004 and 2005 the annual amortization amounted to $3.2 million.

Gain on the sale of vessels

The Company sold five operating vessels during 2005, the newly delivered double hull product
carrier Dionisos, resulting in a capital gain of $18.7 million, the two single hull/double bottom product carriers Dion and Pella, resulting in capital gains of $4.3 and $4.5 million respectively, the two single hull aframaxes
Panos Gand Tamyrafor $9.8 million and $10.4 million, resulting in capital gains of $5.2 and $1.8 million, respectively. Total capital gains achieved and accounted for in full within 2005 amounted, therefore, to $34.5 million. In
2004, two operating vessels were sold for a combined capital gain of $13.6 million.

Operating income

Income from vessel operations was $154.8 million during 2005 versus $145.5 million for 2004, representing a 6.4% increase.

Gain on the sale of non-operating vessels

During
2005, the Company sold the newbuilding aframax hull H/1224for $71.3 million resulting in a capital gain of $10.8 million. During 2004 the Company sold the newly constructed vessel Delos for $35.7 million resulting in a capital gain of
$7.8 million.

Net interest and finance costs

Net interest and finance costs increased from $10.1 million during 2004 to $11.2 million during 2005, an 11.0% increase. Loan interest costs increased from $15.6 million in 2004 to $19.1 million in 2005. This was mostly due to the increase
of the average interest rates borne on the Companys loans from 3.4% during 2004 to 4.4% during 2005. The total average bank loans fell from $436 million for 2004 to approximately $416 million for 2005.

There were net positive movements totaling $3.2 million relating to the fair value (mark-to-market) of the non-hedging interest rate swaps in 2005,
including reclassification adjustment from other comprehensive income, compared to $2.5 million in 2004.

##### Table of Contents

Capitalized interest in 2005 was $5.3 million compared to $2.7 million in the previous year, the increase
being due to further installments paid for vessels on order and higher average interest rates. Amortization of loan expenses was $1.0 million compared to $0.4 million primarily due to write-offs of loan expenses on the refinancing of older loans and
facilities. Other loan charges also increased to $1.4 million in 2005 from $0.2 million in 2004 mainly due to extra commitment fees.

Interest income

Total income derived from bank deposits and investments, including the net positive changes in the market values of the investments,
were $7.4 million during 2005 as compared to $0.8 million during 2004, due to higher average bank deposits and higher deposit interest rates, and an unrealized gain of $2.1 million from our increased investments in 2005.

Net income

As a result of the foregoing, net income
for 2005 was $161.8 million, or $8.18 per share, basic, versus $7.53 per share, basic, during 2004, an increase of 8.6%.

Liquidity and Capital
Resources

Our liquidity requirements relate to servicing our debt, funding the equity portion of investments in vessels, funding
working capital and controlling fluctuations in cash flow. Net cash flow generated by continuing operations is our main source of liquidity. Apart from the possibility of securing further equity, additional sources of cash include proceeds from
asset sales and borrowings, although all borrowing arrangements to date have specifically related to the acquisition of vessels.

We
believe that, unless there is a major and sustained downturn in market conditions, our financial resources are sufficient to meet our liquidity needs through January 1, 2008, taking into account both our existing capital commitments and the
minimum debt service requirements as defined by our loan covenants.

Working capital (non-restricted net current assets) amounted to
approximately $116.7 million at December 31, 2006 compared to $99.9 million as at December 31, 2005. Current assets increased from $191.7 million at December 31, 2005 to $222.5 million at December 31, 2006 mainly due to the
increase in cash balances (including restricted cash) which, as at December 31, 2006, amounted to $178.9 million, compared to $146.0 million a year previously. Reduced short-term investments by $10.2 million were offset by increased inventories
(in line with the growth of the fleet) and positive increases in the value of certain interest rate swaps. Current liabilities increased from $91.5 million to $101.4 million at December 31, 2006 due mainly to increases in trade payables,
accrued liabilities and accrued loan interest, again related to the significant deliveries of new vessels and associated debt. However, much of these increases were offset by decreases in the current portion of the long term debt as repayments on
several of the larger facilities do not start until drawings correspond to a given level per the repayment schedule. In several cases, drawings have been less than the maximum facility available as the Company has been able to fund a part of
delivery installments with our own cash, a large portion of which was provided from proceeds from sales of vessels.

Net cash provided by
operating activities was $215.0 million during 2006 compared to $146.9 million in the previous year, a 46.4% increase. The increase is due mainly to the increased revenue generated by the increase in fleet size and the increase in freight rates
achieved.

Expenditure for dry-dockings is deducted from cash generated by operating activities. Total expenditure during 2006 on
dry-dockings amounted to $4.9 million compared to $9.3 million in 2005. In 2006, dry-docking work was performed on the Libra and Opal Queen and started on the Vergina II. In 2005, dry-dock work related to special surveys was
completed on the Bregen, Hesnes and Victory III.

Net cash used in investing activities was $829.3 million for the
year 2006, compared to $109.0 million for 2005. During 2006, the Company acquired two vessels from the Tsakos Group for $131.1 million, and acquired from

during the year and the vessels delivered. In addition, two ice-class suezmax and two handysize product carrier newbuildings were completed and delivered to the Company for $178.8 million. Apart from delivered vessels, another $35.2 million was paid
to the Tsakos Group for contracts of two vessels under construction, and payments to yards and other pre-delivery expenditures on the vessels under construction during the 2006 but not completed by the year end, amounted to $116.9 million. Those
vessels included an LNG carrier (delivery in February 2007), two ice-class suezmaxes (delivery in 2007 and the second to be delivered in April 2007), six aframaxes (deliveries between 2007-2009), two panamaxes (delivery 2007) and four product
carriers (delivery 2007).

During 2006, apart from construction contracts acquired, the Company entered into contracts to construct another
six vessels (four aframaxes and two panamaxes) bringing the total number of vessels on order at December 31, 2006 to fifteen.

The
anticipated payment schedule on these vessels as of December 31 2006, which is subject to change for delays or advanced work, is as follows (in $ million):

In 2006, the Company sold the Libra, Crux and Aztec, and net sale proceeds amounted
to $88.7 million. Net sale proceeds in 2005 from the sale of the aframaxes Panos G and Tamyra, the handymax product carriers Dion and Pella, and the handysize product carrier Dionisos, amounted to $157.2 million.
Also, during 2006, the Company sold to Flopec of Ecuador 49% of the shareholding of the holding company of the two vessel-owning companies holding the panamax vessels Maya and Inca, for proceeds, net of commissions and other related
costs of $25.3 million. In 2006, the Company placed $5.0 million in a structured note, but later sold the same investment for $5.5 million. In addition, the Company also sold three other investments in structured notes for $22.1 million.

Net cash derived from financing activities was $643.1 million in 2006 compared to a net $9.1 million cash used in financing activities in 2005.
Proceeds from new bank loans in 2006 amounted to $992.3 million compared to $330.7 million in the previous year. Prepayments of debt amounted to $274.3 million and scheduled repayments to $17.8 million in 2006 compared to total loan reimbursements
of $262.3 million in 2005.

During 2006, 143,200 shares were repurchased as part of the share buy-back program at a cost of $5.3 million.
During 2005, the Company purchased 1,016,790 shares at a cost of approximately $37.8 million. All the transactions were open market based through the New York Stock Exchange with a maximum price set by the Board of Directors. The shares were
immediately deemed cancelled on purchase in accordance with the Companys bye-laws and Bermudan legislation. During 2006, the staff of the Tsakos Group exercised 4,876 options at $12 each which, in total, provided $0.1 million. This stock
option plan ceased in July 2006.

A cash dividend of $1.10 was paid in April 2006 representing the final dividend for the fiscal year 2005
and a $1.25 dividend was paid in October 2006 as the first dividend for the fiscal year 2006. In total, the two dividends amounted to $44.8 million. A final dividend of $1.50 per share for the fiscal year 2006 has been declared on March 8,
2007, to be paid on April 26, 2007. The dividend policy of the Company is to pay between 25% and 50% of the net income in any given year, payable in two installments, the first prior to the end of the year based on expected earnings and cash
requirements, and the final portion in the early part of the following year based on final earnings and cash requirements. The payment and the amount is subject to the discretion of our board of directors and depends, among other things, on
available cash balances, anticipated cash needs, our results of operations, our financial condition, and any loan agreement restrictions binding us or our subsidiaries, as well as other relevant factors.

Investment in Fleet and Related Expenses

We operate in a capital-intensive industry requiring extensive investment in revenue-producing assets. As discussed previously in the sections on Business Overview and Our Fleet we continue to have an active fleet
development program resulting in a fleet of modern and young vessels with an average age of 5.4 years at March 31, 2007. We raise the funds for such investments in newbuildings mainly from borrowings and partly out of internally generated
funds. Newbuilding contracts generally provide for multiple staged payments of 5% to 10%, with the balance of the vessel purchase price paid upon delivery. For the equity portion of an investment in a newbuilding or a second-hand vessel the Company
usually pays from its own cash approximately 30% of the contract price. Repayment of the debt incurred to purchase the vessel is made from vessel operating cash flow, typically over eight to twelve years, compared to the vessels asset life of
approximately 25 years.

As of December 31, 2006, we were committed to fifteen newbuilding contracts totaling approximately $890.8 million, of which
$240.9 million had been paid by December 31, 2006. Deliveries to date within 2007 include the ice-class suezmax Arctic on January (final delivery payment $34.5 million, loan drawn $35.5 million) the LNG carrier Neo Energy on
February (final delivery payment $104.1 million, loan drawn $105.0 million), the ice-class handysize product carrier Andromeda (final delivery payment $21.0 million, loan drawn $25.0 million) and the aframax tanker Izumo Princesson
March (final delivery payment and loan drawn $33.9 million).

Debt

As is customary
in our industry, we anticipate financing the majority of our commitments on the newbuildings with bank debt. Usually we raise at least 70% of the vessel purchase price with bank debt for a period of between eight and twelve years (while the expected
life of a tanker is 25 years). As of December 31, 2006, we had available unused loan amounts totaling $385.6 million, which is intended primarily to finance the delivery installments of vessels under construction due in 2007 to 2009.

As a result of such financing activities, long-term debt increased in 2006 by a net amount of $700.1 million,
compared to a net increase of $68.4 million in 2005. The average debt to capital ratio was approximately 60.0% by December 31, 2006 or, in net terms, 55.9%. In terms of liabilities against assets at fair value, our leverage at December 31,
2006, was 41%, well below the loan covenant maximum of 70%. Interest payable is usually at a variable rate, based on six-month LIBOR plus a margin. Interest rate swap instruments currently cover approximately 52.0% of the outstanding debt, and
further coverage is being arranged with major banks.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

None.

Board of Directors

In accordance with our Bye-laws,
the Board has specified that the number of directors will be set at no less than five nor more than fifteen. At December 31, 2006 we had nine members on our Board. Under the Companys Bye-laws, one third (or the number nearest one third)
of the Board (with the exception of any managing director) retires by rotation each year. The Bye-laws require that the one third of the directors who retire by rotation be those who have been in office the longest. The Bye-laws specify that where
the directors to retire have been in office for an equal length of time, those who retire are to be determined by lot (unless they agree otherwise among themselves).

During the fiscal year ended December 31 2006, the full Board held three meetings. With the exception of one absence by Mr. Taragoni each director attended all of the meetings of the Board and meetings of
committees of which the director was a member. The foundation for the Companys corporate governance is the Boards policy that a substantial majority of the members of the Board should be independent. With the exception of the two
Executive Directors (Mr. Nikolas P. Tsakos and Mr. George V. Saroglou) the Board believes that none of the other directors (Messrs. Janholt, Jolliffe, Nicholson, Nusspickel, ONeil, Stavropoulos and Patrinos) currently have a material
relationship with the Company directly or indirectly or any relationship that would interfere with the exercise of their independent judgment as directors of the Company.

The Board made its determination of independence in accordance with its Corporate Governance Guidelines, which specifies standards and a process for evaluating director independence. The Guidelines provide that:



| |  |  | A director cannot be independent if he or she fails to meet the objective requirements as to independence under the new New York Stock Exchange listing
standards.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | If a director meets the objective New York Stock Exchange standards, he or she will be deemed independent, absent unusual circumstances, if in the current year and
the past three years the director has had no related-party transaction or relationship with the Company or an interlocking relationship with another entity triggering disclosure under the SEC disclosure rules.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | If a director who meets the objective New York Stock Exchange independence requirements either has had a disclosable transaction or relationship or the Corporate
Governance, Nominating and Compensation Committee requests that the Board consider any other circumstances in determining the directors independence, the Board will make a determination of the directors independence.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

To promote open discussion among the independent directors, those directors met three times in 2006 in
regularly scheduled executive sessions without participation of the Companys management and will continue to do so in the remainder of 2007 and in 2008. Mr. Stavropoulos has served as the Presiding Director for purposes of these meetings.

Corporate Governance

The Board and
the Companys management have engaged in an ongoing review of our corporate governance practices in order to oversee our compliance with the applicable corporate governance rules of the New York Stock Exchange and the SEC.

The Company has adopted a number of key documents that are the foundation of its corporate governance, including:



| |  |  | a Code of Ethics;
| | - |  | -----------------



| |  |  | a Corporate Governance, Nominating and Compensation Committee Charter; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | an Audit Committee Charter.
| | - |  | ---------------------------

These
documents and other important information on our governance, including the Boards Corporate Governance Guidelines, are posted in the Investor Relations section of the Tsakos Energy Navigation Limited website, and may be viewed at

Energy Navigation Limited, 367 Syngrou Avenue, 175 64 P. Faliro, Athens, Greece.

The Board has a long-standing commitment to sound and
effective corporate governance practices. The Boards Corporate Governance Guidelines address a number of important governance issues such as:



| |  |  | Selection and monitoring of the performance of the Companys senior management;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Succession planning for the Companys senior management;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Qualifications for membership on the Board;

| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Board believes that the Corporate Governance Guidelines and other governance documents meet current requirements and reflect a very high standard of
corporate governance.

In 2004, the shareholders approved a share-based incentive plan providing for the granting of up to
500,000 of share options or other share-based awards to directors and officers of the Company as well as employees of the Tsakos Group (the 2004 Plan). In June 2006, the Company granted a total of 10,000 shares of restricted share units
(RSUs) to the non-executive directors that will vest on June 1, 2007. The fair market value of the Companys restricted shares at the date of the award was $36.87 per share. Accordingly, an amount of $369,000 is being amortized
to compensation expense over one year. Total compensation expense recognized for the year ended December 31, 2006 amounted to $216,000. Of the 10,000 RSUs awarded in 2006, none had been vested or forfeited as of December 31, 2006. As of
December 31, 2006, the weighted average remaining contractual life of outstanding grants is 0.5 years. In March 2007, 290,000 RSUs related to the 2004 Plan were granted to officers of the Company as well as employees of the Tsakos Group. These
RSUs are scheduled to vest 50% on December 31, 2008 and the remaining 50% on December 31, 2010. We do not provide benefits for directors upon the termination of their service with us.

There is a management incentive program for Tsakos Energy Management based on the return on equity (R.O.E.) measured on year beginning book value per
share and basic earnings per share for the year. U.S. GAAP accounting defines the value of the components. The incentive award scale was:



|      |  |                
|----- |  | ---------------
|R.O.E |  | Amount of award
|Above |  |                
|15.0% |  | $1.00 million  
|17.5% |  | $1.25 million  
|20%   |  | $1.60 million  
|22.5% |  | $2.00 million  
|25%   |  | $2.50 million  

For the operations of 2005, Tsakos Energy Management has earned an award of $2.5 million, which
will be distributed to the senior personnel of Tsakos Energy Management and Tsakos Shipping whose performance was critical in achieving a return of equity of 31.1%. The ultimate award of the management incentive award is always at the sole
discretion of the Companys Board of Directors. The 2005 award was approved by the Companys Board of Directors on February 28, 2006.

In September, 2005, the Corporate Governance, Nominating and Compensation Committee revised the incentive award scale, effective from January 1, 2006, as follows:



|      |  |                
|----- |  | ---------------
|R.O.E |  | Amount of award

|20%   |  | $2.25 million  
|22.5% |  | $2.75 million  
|25%   |  | $3.50 million  

For the operations of 2006, Tsakos Energy Management has earned an award of $3.5 million, which
will be distributed to the senior personnel of Tsakos Energy Management and Tsakos Shipping whose performance was critical in achieving a return of equity of 32.3%. The ultimate award of the management incentive award is always at the sole
discretion of the Companys Board of Directors. The 2006 award was approved by the Companys Board of Directors on March 8, 2007.

Employees

We have no salaried employees. Approximately 810 officers and crew members served on board the vessels we own as of December 31, 2006, but are employed by our technical managers.

Share ownership

The common shares beneficially owned
by our directors and senior managers and/or companies affiliated with these individuals are disclosed in Item 7. Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions below.

Stock compensation plans

We have two stock compensation plans, the 1998 Stock Option Plan (the
1998 Plan), which was adopted in June 1998, and the Tsakos Energy Navigation Limited 2004 Incentive Plan (the 2004 Plan), which was adopted by our Board and approved by our shareholders at the 2004 Annual Meeting of
shareholders. The 1998 Plan and 2004 Plan permit us to grant equity awards to our directors and officers or the directors, officers and employees of Tsakos Energy Management, our manager, and Tsakos Shipping, our technical manager.

1998 Plan. The purpose of the 1998 Plan is to provide incentives to those people who are capable of influencing the development, or contributing
to the success, of our business. Up to 450,000 common shares may be issued under the 1998 Plan. As at December 31, 2002, a total of 163 persons, consisting of directors and officers of the Company, and directors, officers and employees of
Tsakos Energy Management and Tsakos Shipping, held options to purchase 450,000 common shares under the 1998 Plan. In August 2001, all outstanding stock options under the 1998 Plan were vested and all company performance conditions to the exercise of
such options were removed by the Board of Directors. During 2003, holders of options to acquire an aggregate of 269,000 common shares at $10 per share exercised the options held by them. The weighted average exercise price for the outstanding
options at December 31, 2004 and at December 31, 2005 was $12.0. During 2005, holders of options to acquire an aggregate of 0 common shares (18,000 common shares in 2004) at $10 per share and 18,449 common shares (130,913 common shares in
2004) at $12 per share exercised the options held by them. During 2006, holders of 4,876 common shares (18,449 common shares in 2005) at $12 per share exercised the options held by them. All options granted under the 1998 Plan have been exercised
and no further options will be granted under this plan.

2004 Plan.The purpose of the 2004 Plan is to provide a means to attract,
retain motivate and reward our present and prospective directors, officers and consultants of the Company and its subsidiaries and the employees of the management companies providing administrative, commercial, technical and maritime services to, or
for the benefit of, the Company, its subsidiaries and their vessels by increasing their ownership in our Company. Awards under the 2004 Plan may include options to purchase our common shares, restricted share awards, other share-based awards
(including share appreciation rights granted separately or in tandem with other awards) or a combination thereof. As of the date of this annual report, no awards have been granted under the 2004 Plan.

The 2004 Plan will be administered by our Corporate Governance, Nominating and Compensation Committee or a special committee designated by our Board.
Such committee will have the authority, among other things, to: (i) select the present or prospective directors, officers, consultants and other personnel entitled to receive awards under the 2004 Plan; (ii) determine the form of awards,
or combinations of awards; (iii) determine the number

##### Table of Contents

of shares covered by an award; and (iv) determine the terms and conditions of any awards granted under the 2004 Plan, including any restrictions or
limitations on transfer, any vesting schedules or the acceleration of vesting schedules and any forfeiture provision or waiver of the same. The exercise price at which our common chares may be purchased pursuant to the grant of an option under the
2004 Plan is the fair market value (as defined in the 2004 Plan) of our common shares on the date of grant of the option.

The 2004
Incentive Plan authorizes the issuance of up to 500,000 shares in the form of grants or options. In June 2006, the Company granted a total of 10,000 shares of restricted share units (RSUs) to the non-executive directors that will vest on
June 1, 2007. The fair market value of the Companys restricted shares at the date of the award was $36.87 per share. Accordingly, an amount of $369,000 is being amortized to compensation expense over one year. Total compensation expense
recognized for the year ended December 31, 2006 amounted to $216,000. Of the 10,000 RSUs awarded in 2006, none had been vested or forfeited as of December 31, 2006. As of December 31, 2006, the weighted average remaining contractual
life of outstanding grants is 0.5 years. In March 2007, 290,000 RSUs related to the 2004 Plan were granted to officers of the Company as well as employees of the Tsakos Group. These RSUs are scheduled to vest 50% on December 31, 2008 with the
remaining 50% vesting on December 31, 2010.



|Item 7. | Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions.
|------- | --------------------------------------------------

It is our policy that transactions with related parties are entered into on terms no less favorable to us than would exist if these transactions were entered into with unrelated third parties on an arms length basis. Tsakos Energy
Management has undertaken to ensure that all transactions with related parties are reported to the board of directors. Under the management agreement, any such transaction or series of transactions involving payments in excess of $100,000 and which
is not in the ordinary course of business requires the prior consent of the board of directors. Transactions not involving payments in excess of $100,000 may be reported quarterly to the board of directors.

To help minimize any conflict between our interests and the interests of other members of the Tsakos Group and the owners of other vessels managed by the
Tsakos Group, if an opportunity to purchase a tanker which is 10 years of age or younger is referred to or developed by Tsakos Shipping, Tsakos Shipping will notify us of this opportunity and allow us a 10 business day period within which to decide
whether or not to accept the opportunity before offering it to any of its affiliates or other clients.

Management affiliations

Nikolas P. Tsakos, our president, chief executive officer and one of our directors, is an officer, director and the sole shareholder of Tsakos Energy
Management. He is also the son of the principal and founder of the Tsakos Group.

George V. Saroglou, our chief operating officer and one
of our directors, is a cousin of Nikolas P. Tsakos.

Management and other fees

We prepay or reimburse Tsakos Shipping at cost for all vessel operating expenses payable by Tsakos Shipping in its capacity as technical manager of our
fleet. These reimbursements amounted to $66.9 million in 2006. At December 31, 2006, we had no outstanding advances to Tsakos Shipping and Trading.

From the management fee we pay Tsakos Energy Management, Tsakos Energy Management in turn pays a management fee to Tsakos Shipping for its services as technical manager of our fleet and for its supervision of the
construction of our newbuildings. Under the terms of our management agreement with Tsakos Energy Management, we paid to Tsakos Energy Management management fees of $7.1 million and supervisory fees of $ 2.0 million relating to the construction
of our vessels in 2006.

Based on the results of operations for 2006, Tsakos Energy Management has earned an incentive award of $3.5
million, which will be distributed to the senior personnel of Tsakos Energy Management and Tsakos Shipping whose performance was critical in achieving a return on equity of 32.3%. This is the highest possible award that Tsakos Energy Management may
be awarded under this incentive program.

Management agreement

Our management agreement with Tsakos Energy Management was amended and restated on September 24, 2004 and has a term of ten years from the effective date of July 1, 2004. Tsakos Energy Management may
terminate the management agreement at any time upon not less than one years notice. In addition, each party may terminate the management agreement in the following circumstances:



| |  |  | certain events of bankruptcy or liquidation involving either party;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a material breach by either party; or
| | - |  | -------------------------------------



| |  |  | a failure by either party, for a continuous period of six months, materially to perform under circumstances resulting from war, governmental actions, riot, civil
commotion, weather, accident, labor disputes or other causes not in the control of the non-performing party.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Moreover,
following a change in our control, which would occur if at least one director were elected to our board without having been recommended by our existing board, Tsakos Energy Management may terminate the agreement on 10 business days notice. If
Tsakos Energy Management terminates the agreement for this reason, then we would immediately be obligated to pay Tsakos Energy Management the present discounted value of all of the payments that would have otherwise been due under the management
agreement up until June 30 of the tenth year following the date of termination plus the average of the incentive awards previously paid to Tsakos Energy Management multiplied by ten. Under these terms, therefore, a termination as of
December 31, 2006 would have resulted in a payment of approximately $106 million. Under the terms of the Management Agreement between the Company and Tsakos Energy Management Limited, the Company may terminate the agreement only under specific
circumstances, such as breach of contract by the manager and change of control in the shareholding of the manager without the prior approval of the Companys Board of Directors.

Under the management agreement, we pay monthly fees for Tsakos Energy Managements management of our vessels. The management fees we pay Tsakos
Energy Management under our management agreement are based on the number of ships in our fleet. The per-ship charges begin to accrue for a vessel at the point that a newbuilding contract is acquired, which is 18 to 24 months before the vessel begins
to earn revenue for us.From July, 2004, the fee payable on owned operating vessels was $18,000 per month, and the monthly fee on chartered-in operating vessels to $12,500. As from June 30, 2004, a monthly management fee of $12,500 is also
payable on vessels under construction, except for the LNG carrier under construction where the fee is $18,000. The management agreement has been amended effective January 1, 2007, to raise the monthly fee to $20,000 per owned vessel and $15,000
for vessels chartered-in or chartered out on a bare-boat basis, with a prorated adjustment if at each year end the Euro has appreciated by 10% or more against the Dollar since the beginning of the year.

Chartering commissions

We pay a chartering
commission to Tsakos Shipping equal to 1.25% on all freights, hires and demurrages involving our vessels. We have been charged by Tsakos Shipping chartering commissions aggregating $5.4 million in 2006.

Captive insurance policies

We pay Argosy Insurance
Company premiums to provide hull and machinery, increased value and loss of hire insurance for our vessels. We have been charged by Argosy for insurance premiums aggregating $8.6 million in 2006.

Travel services

We use AirMania Travel S.A., an affiliate of the Tsakos Group, for travel services primarily to transport our crews to and from our vessels. We have been charged by AirMania an aggregate amount of $1.3 million in
2006.

Major Shareholders

|Item 8. | Financial Information
|------- | ---------------------

See Item 18. Financial
Statements below.

Significant Changes. No significant change has occurred since the date of the annual financial statements
included in this annual report on Form 20-F.

Legal Proceedings. We are involved in litigation from time to time in the ordinary
course of business. In our opinion, the litigation in which we are currently involved, individually or in the aggregate, is not material to us.

Dividend Policy. While we cannot assure you that we will do so, and subject to the limitations discussed below, we currently intend to pay regular cash dividends on our common shares of between one-quarter and one-half of our annual
net income for the year in respect of which the dividends are paid. We plan to pay dividends on a semi-annual basis.

There can be no
assurance that we will pay dividends or as to the amount of any dividend. The payment and the amount will be subject to the discretion of our board of directors and will depend, among other things, on available cash balances, anticipated cash needs,
our results of operations, our financial condition, and any loan agreement restrictions binding us or our subsidiaries, as well as other relevant factors. For example, if we earned a capital gain on the sale of a vessel or newbuilding contract, we
could determine to reinvest that gain instead of using it to pay dividends. Depending on our operating performance for that year, this could result in no dividend at all despite the existence of net income, or a dividend that represents a lower
percentage of our net income. Of course, any payment of cash dividends could slow our ability to renew and expand our fleet, and could cause delays in the completion of our current newbuilding program.

Because we are holding a company with no material assets other than the stock of our subsidiaries, our ability to pay dividends will depend on the
earnings and cash flow of our subsidiaries and their ability to pay dividends to us.

Under the terms of our existing credit facilities, we
are permitted to declare or pay a cash dividend in any year as long as the amount of the dividend does not exceed 50% of our net income for that year. Net income will be determined based on the audited financial statements we deliver to the banks
under our credit facilities which are required to be in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. This amount can be carried forward and applied to a dividend payment in a subsequent year provided the aggregate amount of all
dividends we declare and/or pay after January 1, 1998 does not exceed 50% of our accumulated net income from January 1, 1996 up to the most recent date on which audited financial statements have been delivered under the credit facility. We
anticipate incurring significant additional indebtedness in connection with our newbuilding program, which will affect our net income and cash available to pay dividends. In addition, cash dividends can be paid only to the extent permitted by
Bermuda law and our financial covenants. See Description of Capital StockBermuda LawDividends. See Item 3. Key InformationRisks Related to our Common SharesWe may not be able to pay cash dividends as
intended.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL
STOCK

Our authorized capital stock consists of 100,000,000 shares, par value $1.00 per share. As of December 31, 2006 there were
19,039,871 outstanding common shares.

Common Shares

The holders of common shares are entitled to receive dividends out of assets legally available for that purpose at times and in amounts as our board of directors may from time to time determine. Each shareholder is
entitled to one vote for each common share held on all matters submitted to a vote of shareholders. Cumulative voting for the election of directors is not provided for in our Memorandum of Association or Bye-laws, which means that the holders of a
majority of the common shares voted can elect all of the directors then standing for election. Our Bye-laws provide for a staggered board of directors, with one-third of our non-executive directors being selected each year. The common shares are not
entitled to preemptive rights and are not subject to conversion or redemption. Upon the occurrence of a liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, the holders of common shares would be entitled to share ratably in the distribution of all of our assets
remaining available for distribution after satisfaction of all our liabilities.

Shareholder Rights Plan

Our board of directors has adopted a shareholder rights plan under which our shareholders received one right for each common share they held. Each right will entitle the holder to purchase from the Company a unit
consisting of one one-hundredth of a share of our Series A Junior Participating Preferred Shares, or a combination of securities and assets of equivalent value, at an exercise price of $127.00, subject to adjustment. The following summary
description of the rights agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the rights agreement between us and The Bank of New York, as rights agent, a copy of which is filed as an exhibit to the
registration statement of which this prospectus is a part and is incorporated herein by reference.

If any person or group acquires shares
representing 15% or more of our outstanding common shares, the flip-in provision of the rights agreement will be triggered and the rights will entitle a holder, other than such person, any member of such group or related person, as such
rights will be null and void, to acquire a number of additional common shares having a market value of twice the exercise price of each right. In lieu of requiring payment of the purchase price upon exercise of the rights following any such event,
we may permit the holders simply to surrender the rights, in which event they will be entitled to receive common shares (and other property, as the case may be) with a value of 50% of what could be purchased by payment of the full purchase price.

Until a right is exercised, the holder of the right, as such, will have no rights as a shareholder of our company, including, without
limitation, no right to vote or to receive dividends. While the distribution of the rights will not be taxable to shareholders or to us, shareholders may, depending upon the circumstances, recognize taxable income in the event that the rights become
exercisable for preferred shares (or other consideration) or for common shares of the acquiring or surviving company or in the event of the redemption of the rights as set forth above.

The existence of the rights agreement and the rights could deter a third party from tendering for the purchase of some or all of our common shares and
could have the effect of entrenching management. In addition, they could have the effect of delaying or preventing changes of control of the ownership and management of our company, even if such transactions would have significant benefits to our
shareholders.

Bermuda Law

We are an
exempted company organized under the Companies Act 1981 of Bermuda. Bermuda law and our Memorandum of Association and Bye-laws govern the rights of our shareholders. Our objects and purposes are set forth in paragraph 6 and the Schedule to our
Memorandum of Association. Our objects and purposes include to act and to perform all the functions of a holding company in all its branches and to coordinate the policy and administration of any subsidiary company or companies wherever incorporated
or carrying on business or of any group of companies of which the Company or any subsidiary company is a member or which are in any manner controlled directly or indirectly by the Company. We refer you to our Memorandum of Association, which is
filed as an exhibit to this annual report, for a full description of our objects and purposes. The Companies Act 1981 of Bermuda differs in some material respects from laws generally applicable to United States corporations and their shareholders.
The following is a summary of the material provisions of Bermuda law and our organizational documents.

Dividends. Under Bermuda
law, a company may pay dividends that are declared from time to time by its board of directors unless there are reasonable grounds for believing that the company is or would, after the payment, be unable to pay its liabilities as they become due or
that the realizable value of its assets would then be less than the aggregate of its liabilities and issued share capital and share premium accounts.

Voting rights. Under Bermuda law, except as otherwise provided in the Companies Act 1981 of Bermuda or our Bye-laws, questions brought before a general meeting of shareholders are decided by a majority vote of
shareholders present at the meeting. Our Bye-laws provide that, subject to the provisions of the Companies Act 1981 of Bermuda, any question proposed for the consideration of the shareholders will be decided in a general meeting by a simple majority
of the votes cast, on a show of hands, with each shareholder present (and each person holding proxies for any shareholder) entitled to one vote for each common share held by the shareholder, except for special situations where a shareholder has lost
the right to vote because he has failed to comply with the terms of a notice requiring him to provide information to the company pursuant to the Bye-laws, or his voting rights have been partly

suspended under the Bye-laws as a consequence of becoming an interested person. In addition, a super-majority vote of not less than seventy-five percent
(75%) of the votes cast at the meeting is required to effect the following actions: variation of class rights, removal of directors, approval of business combinations with certain interested persons and for any alteration to the
provisions of the Bye-laws relating to the staggered board, removal of directors and business combinations.

Rights in liquidation.
Under Bermuda law, in the event of liquidation or winding up of a company, after satisfaction in full of all claims of creditors and subject to the preferential rights accorded to any series of preferred shares, the proceeds of the liquidation or
winding up are distributed ratably among the holders of the companys common shares.

Meetings of shareholders. Under Bermuda
law, a company is required to convene at least one general shareholders meeting each calendar year. Bermuda law provides that a special general meeting may be called by the board of directors and must be called upon the request of shareholders
holding not less than 10% of the paid-up capital of the company carrying the right to vote. Bermuda law also requires that shareholders be given at least five (5) days advance notice of a general meeting but the accidental omission to
give notice to any person does not invalidate the proceedings at a meeting. Under our Bye-laws, we must give each shareholder at least ten (10) days notice of the annual general meeting and of any special general meeting.

Under Bermuda law, the number of shareholders constituting a quorum at any general meeting of shareholders is determined by the Bye-laws of a company.
Our Bye-laws provide that the presence in person or by proxy of two shareholders constitutes a quorum; but if we have only one shareholder, one shareholder present in person or by proxy shall constitute the necessary quorum.

Access to books and records and dissemination of information. Members of the general public have the right to inspect the public documents of a
company available at the office of the Registrar of Companies in Bermuda. These documents include a companys Certificate of Incorporation, its Memorandum of Association (including its objects and powers) and any alteration to its Memorandum of
Association. The shareholders have the additional right to inspect the Bye-laws of the company, minutes of general meetings and the companys audited financial statements, which must be presented at the annual general meeting. The register of
shareholders of a company is also open to inspection by shareholders without charge and by members of the general public on the payment of a fee. A company is required to maintain its share register in Bermuda but may, subject to the provisions of
Bermuda law, establish a branch register outside Bermuda. We maintain a share register in Hamilton, Bermuda. A company is required to keep at its registered office a register of its directors and officers that is open for inspection for not less
than two (2) hours each day by members of the public without charge. Bermuda law does not, however, provide a general right for shareholders to inspect or obtain copies of any other corporate records.

Election or removal of directors. Under Bermuda law and our Bye-laws, directors are elected or appointed at the annual general meeting and serve
until re-elected or re-appointed or until their successors are elected or appointed, unless they are earlier removed or resign. Our Bye-laws provide for a staggered board of directors, with one-third of the non-executive directors selected each
year.

Under Bermuda law and our Bye-laws, a director may be removed at a special general meeting of shareholders specifically called for
that purpose, provided the director is served with at least 14 days notice. The director has a right to be heard at that meeting. Any vacancy created by the removal of a director at a special general meeting may be filled at that meeting by
the election of another director in his or her place or, in the absence of any such election, by the board of directors.

Amendment of
Memorandum of Association.Bermuda law provides that the Memorandum of Association of a company may be amended by a resolution passed at a general meeting of shareholders of which due notice has been given. An amendment to the Memorandum of
Association, other than an amendment which alters or reduces a companys share capital as provided in the Companies Act 1981 of Bermuda, also requires the approval of the Bermuda Minister of Finance, who may grant or withhold approval at his
discretion. Generally, our Bye-laws may be amended by the directors with the approval of a majority vote of the shareholders in a general meeting. However, a super-majority vote is required for certain resolutions relating to the variation of class
rights, the removal of directors, the approval of business combinations with certain interested persons and for any alteration to the provisions of the Bye-laws relating to the staggered board, removal of directors and business
combinations.

##### Table of Contents

Under Bermuda law, the holders of an aggregate of no less than 20% in par value of a companys
issued share capital or any class of issued share capital have the right to apply to the Bermuda Court for an annulment of any amendment of the Memorandum of Association adopted by shareholders at any general meeting, other than an amendment which
alters or reduces a companys share capital as provided in the Companies Act 1981 of Bermuda. Where such an application is made, the amendment becomes effective only to the extent that it is confirmed by the Bermuda Court. An application for
the annulment of an amendment of the Memorandum of Association must be made within 21 days after the date on which the resolution altering the companys memorandum is passed and may be made on behalf of the persons entitled to make the
application by one or more of their number as they may appoint in writing for the purpose. Persons voting in favor of the amendment may make no such application.

Appraisal rights and shareholder suits. Under Bermuda law, in the event of an amalgamation involving a Bermuda company, a shareholder who is not satisfied that fair value has been paid for his shares may apply
to the Bermuda Court to appraise the fair value of his shares. The amalgamation of a company with another company requires the amalgamation agreement to be approved by the board of directors and, except where the amalgamation is between a holding
company and one or more of its wholly owned subsidiaries or between two or more wholly owned subsidiaries, by meetings of the holders of shares of each company and of each class of such shares.

Class actions and derivative actions are generally not available to shareholders under Bermuda law. The Bermuda Court, however, would ordinarily be
expected to permit a shareholder to commence an action in the name of a company to remedy a wrong done to the company where the act complained of is alleged to be beyond the corporate power of the company or is illegal or would result in the
violation of the companys Memorandum of Association or Bye-laws. Further consideration would be given by the Bermuda Court to acts that are alleged to constitute a fraud against the minority shareholders or, for instance, where an act requires
the approval of a greater percentage of the companys shareholders than that which actually approved it.

When the affairs of a
company are being conducted in a manner oppressive or prejudicial to the interests of some part of the shareholders, one or more shareholders may apply to the Bermuda Court for an order regulating the companys conduct of affairs in the future
or compelling the purchase of the shares by any shareholder, by other shareholders or by the company.

Anti-takeover effects of
provisions of our charter documents. Several provisions of our Bye-laws may have anti-takeover effects. These provisions are intended to avoid costly takeover battles, lessen our vulnerability to a hostile change of control and enhance the
ability of our board of directors to maximize shareholder value in connection with any unsolicited offer to acquire us. However, these anti-takeover provisions, which are summarized below, could also discourage, delay or prevent (1) the merger
or acquisition of our company by means of a tender offer, a proxy contest or otherwise, that a shareholder may consider in our best interest and (2) the removal of incumbent officers and directors.

Blank check preferred shares. Under the terms of our Bye-laws, our board of directors has authority, without any further vote or action by our
shareholders, to issue preferred shares with terms and preferences determined by our board. Our board of directors may issue preferred shares on terms calculated to discourage, delay or prevent a change of control of our company or the removal of
our management.

Staggered board of directors. Our Bye-laws provide for a staggered board of directors with one-third of our
non-executive directors being selected each year. This staggered board provision could discourage a third party from making a tender offer for our shares or attempting to obtain control of our company. It could also delay shareholders who do not
agree with the policies of the board of directors from removing a majority of the board of directors for two years.

Transactions
involving certain business combinations. Our Bye-Laws prohibit the consummation of any business combination involving us and any interested person, unless the transaction is approved by a vote of a majority of 80% of those present and voting at
a general meeting of our shareholders, unless:



| |  |  | the ratio of (i) the aggregate amount of cash and the fair market value of other consideration to be received per share in the business combination by holders
of shares other than the interested person involved in the business combination, to (ii) the market price per share, immediately prior to the announcement of the proposed business combination is at least as great as the ratio of (iii) the
highest per share price, which the interested person has theretofore paid in acquiring any share prior to the business combination, to (iv) the market price per share immediately prior to the initial acquisition by the interested person of any
shares;

interested persons bears to all shares carrying voting rights in our company outstanding at the time in question (with a continuing director to occupy any resulting fractional position among the directors); (ii) the interested person shall not
have acquired from us or any subsidiary of ours directly or indirectly, any shares (except (x) upon conversion of convertible securities acquired by it prior to becoming an interested person, or (y) as a result of a pro rata share

| |  |  | a proxy statement complying with the requirements of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, shall have been mailed to all holders of shares carrying
voting rights for the purpose of soliciting shareholders of the business combination. The proxy statement shall contain at the front thereof, in a prominent place, any recommendations as to the advisability (or inadvisability) of the business
combination which the continuing directors, or any of them, may have furnished in writing and, if deemed advisable by a majority of the continuing directors, an opinion of a reputable investment banking firm as to the adequacy (or inadequacy) of the
terms of the business combination from the point of view of the holders of shares carrying voting rights other than any interested person (the investment banking firm to be selected by a majority of the continuing directors, to be furnished with all
information it reasonably requests, and to be paid a reasonable fee for its services upon receipt by us of the opinion).

person is any person or entity that beneficially owns 15% or more of our outstanding voting shares and any person or entity affiliated with or
controlling or controlled by that person or entity. Continuing directors means directors who have been elected before June 7, 2001 or designated as continuing directors by the majority of the then continuing directors.

Consequences of becoming an interested person. Our Bye-Laws provide that, at any time a person acquires or becomes the beneficial owner of 15%
or more of our voting shares, which we refer to as the threshold, then the person will not be entitled to exercise voting rights for the number of common shares in excess of the threshold he holds or beneficially owns. This disability
applies to any general meeting of our company as to which the record date or scheduled meeting date falls within a period of five years from the date such person acquired beneficial ownership of a number of common shares in excess of the threshold.

The above restrictions do not apply to us, our subsidiaries or to:



| |  |  | any person who on June 7, 2001 was the holder or beneficial owner of a number of shares carrying voting rights that exceeded the threshold and who continues at
all times after June 7, 2001 to hold shares in excess of the threshold; and

| |  |  | any person whose acquisition of a number of shares exceeding the threshold has been approved by (1) a majority of 80% of those present and voting at a general
meeting or (2) by a resolution adopted by the continuing directors, followed by a resolution adopted by a shareholder vote in excess of 50% of the voting shares not owned by such interested person.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Transfer agent and registrar. The Bank of New York serves as transfer agent and registrar for our common shares.

New York Stock Exchange listing. Our common shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol TNP.

Other listings.Our common shares were listed on the Oslo Børs under the symbol TEN until a voluntary de-listing on March 18, 2005
and on the Bermuda Stock Exchange under the symbol TEN. Our common shares are no longer actively traded on either of these exchanges.

Exchange Controls

Under Bermuda and Greek law, there are currently no restrictions on the export or import of capital, including foreign exchange
controls, or restrictions that affect the remittance of dividends, interest or other payments to nonresident holders of our common shares.

TAX CONSIDERATIONS

Taxation of Tsakos Energy Navigation Limited

We believe that none of our income will be subject to tax in Bermuda, which currently has no corporate income tax, or by other countries in which we
conduct activities or in which our customers are located, excluding the United States. However, this belief is based upon the anticipated nature and conduct of our business which may change, and upon our understanding of our position under the tax
laws of the various countries in which we have assets or conduct activities, which position is subject to review and possible challenge by taxing authorities and to possible changes in law, which may have retroactive effect. The extent to which
certain taxing jurisdictions may require us to pay tax or to make payments in lieu of tax cannot be determined in advance. In addition, payments due to us from our customers may be subject to withholding tax or other tax claims in amounts that
exceed the taxation that we might have anticipated based upon our current and anticipated business practices and the current tax regime.

Bermuda tax considerations

Under current Bermuda law, we are not subject to tax on income or capital gains. Furthermore, we have obtained from the Minister of Finance of Bermuda, under the Exempted Undertakings Tax Protection Act 1966, an
undertaking that, in the event that Bermuda enacts any legislation imposing tax computed on profits or income or computed on any capital asset, gain or appreciation, or any tax in the nature of estate duty or inheritance tax, then the imposition of
such tax will not be applicable to us or to any of our operations, or to the shares, capital or common stock of Tsakos Energy Navigation, until March 28, 2016. This undertaking does not, however, prevent the imposition of property taxes on any
company owning real property or leasehold interests in Bermuda or on any person ordinarily resident in Bermuda. We pay an annual government fee on our authorized share capital and share premium, which for 2007 is $9,345. In the opinion of
Mello Jones & Martin, under current Bermuda law, no income, withholding or other taxes or stamp or other duties are imposed upon the issue, transfer or sale of the common shares or on any payments made on the common shares.

United States federal income tax considerations

The
following is a summary of the material United States federal income tax considerations that apply to (1) our operations and the operations of our vessel-operating subsidiaries and (2) the acquisition, ownership and disposition of common
shares by a shareholder that is a United States holder. This summary is based upon our beliefs and expectations concerning our past, current and anticipated activities, income and assets and those of our subsidiaries, the direct, indirect and
constructive ownership of our shares and the trading and quotation of our shares. Should any such beliefs or expectations prove to be incorrect, the conclusions described herein could be adversely affected. For purposes of this discussion, a United
States holder is a beneficial owner of common shares who or which is:



| |  |  | an individual citizen or resident of the United States;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a corporation, or other entity taxable as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes, created or organized in or under the laws of the United
States or any of its political subdivisions; or
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | an estate or trust the income of which is subject to United States federal income taxation regardless of its source.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This summary deals only with common shares that are held as capital assets by a United States holder, and does not address tax considerations applicable
to United States holders that may be subject to special tax rules, such as:



| |  |  | dealers or traders in securities or currencies;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------



| |  |  | financial institutions;
| | - |  | -----------------------



| |  |  | insurance companies;
| | - |  | --------------------



| |  |  | tax-exempt entities;
| | - |  | --------------------



| |  |  | United States holders that hold common shares as a part of a straddle or conversion transaction or other arrangement involving more than one position;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | United States holders that own, or are deemed for United States tax purposes to own, ten percent or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of our
voting stock;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a person subject to United States federal alternative minimum tax;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a partnership or other entity classified as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes;

The discussion below is based upon the provisions of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and regulations, administrative
pronouncements and judicial decisions as of the date of this prospectus; any such authority may be repealed, revoked or modified, perhaps with retroactive effect, so as to result in federal income tax consequences different from those discussed
below.

Because United States tax consequences may differ from one holder to the next, the discussion set out below does not purport to
describe all of the tax considerations that may be relevant to you and your particular situation. Accordingly, you are advised to consult your own tax advisor as to the United States federal, state, local and other tax consequences of investing in
the common shares.

Taxation of our operations

In General

We believe that none of our transportation income or that of our vessel-operating
subsidiaries will be treated as effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States. Accordingly, we expect that we and our vessel-operating subsidiaries will not be subject to United States federal income tax on
transportation income from foreign sources. However, except to the extent that the so-called reciprocal exemption of Section 883 of the Internal Revenue Code or an income tax convention applies, we and our vessel-operating subsidiaries
generally will be subject to United States federal income tax on transportation income from United States sources. For this purpose, transportation income includes income derived from or in connection with the use of vessels or the
hiring or leasing of vessels for use on a time or voyage charter basis or on a bareboat charter basis.

Income attributable to
transportation that both begins and ends in the United States is wholly United States-source income. Fifty percent of income attributable to other transportation that begins or ends in the United States, referred to in the remainder of this
discussion as international transportation, is treated as United States-source income. As discussed below, United States-source income from the operation of ships in international transportation may be exempt from United States tax under
the reciprocal exemption. Income attributable to transportation between points outside the United States is wholly foreign-source income.

Application of Section 883 of the Internal Revenue Code

In General. In general, under the reciprocal exemption
of Section 883 of the Internal Revenue Code, if a foreign corporation (1) is organized in a country that grants an equivalent exemption to corporations organized in the United States and (2) satisfies the requirements of
Section 883(c) discussed below, then such foreign corporation will not be subject to United States federal income tax on United States-source income attributable to the operation of ships in international transportation. The determination as to
whether a foreign country has granted an equivalent exemption is made separately for operating income, for income from time and voyage charters, for income from bareboat charters and for certain other types of income. We and our vessel-operating
subsidiaries are organized under the laws of Bermuda, Cyprus, Liberia, Panama or Malta, each of which, at present, grants an equivalent exemption to United States corporations for operating income and for income from time and voyage charters and
bareboat charters.

We anticipate, and it is assumed for purposes of this discussion, that substantially all of the United States-source
income to be derived by us or by our vessel-operating subsidiaries will be income from the operation of ships in international transportation that is potentially exempt from United States tax under the reciprocal exemption. Any item of United
States-source income that is derived by us or by our vessel-operating subsidiaries and that is not treated as income from the operation of ships in international transportation will not qualify for the reciprocal exemption and therefore generally
will be subject to United States tax, but we do not anticipate that such income will be a material portion of the gross income of our group.

##### Table of Contents

The Treasury regulations under Section 883 (the Section 883 regulations) contain a
relatively complex and narrow definition of the income from the operation of ships in international transportation that may qualify for the reciprocal exemption. However, even under the provisions of the Section 883 regulations, we anticipate
that substantially all of the United States-source income to be derived by us or by our vessel-operating subsidiaries will qualify as income from the operation of ships in international transportation.

Section 883(c).Under Section 883(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, we and our vessel-operating subsidiaries will qualify for the
reciprocal exemption for a taxable year if (1) individuals who are residents of qualified foreign countries directly or indirectly own over 50% of the value of our stock for at least half of the number of days in such taxable year (the
qualified ownership test), or (2) our stock is considered to be primarily and regularly traded on one or more established securities markets in the United States (the publicly traded test).

We have not established that we will be able to demonstrate that we satisfied the qualified ownership test for 2006 or any prior taxable year. We do not
believe that we satisfied the publicly traded test for any taxable year prior to 2002. For 2002 through 2005, although it is unclear what requirements needed to be met in order to satisfy the publicly traded test, we have taken the position that we
satisfied the publicly traded test, as during those years (i) the aggregate number of our common shares traded on the New York Stock Exchange exceeded the aggregated number of our common shares traded on established securities markets in Norway
or any other single foreign country and (ii) we believe that during those years our common shares were regularly quoted by one or more dealers that made a market in our shares. It is possible that the Internal Revenue Service could disagree
with our position.

Under Treasury regulations that are effective for 2006 and subsequent years, satisfaction of the publicly traded test
for a taxable year in which we have only common shares outstanding requires that:



| |  |  | our common shares are listed during such taxable year on one or more established securities markets in the United States
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the number of our common shares that are traded during the taxable year on an established securities market in the United States exceed the aggregate number of our
common shares that are traded during such taxable year on established securities markets in any other single country
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | either (i) our common shares are regularly quoted during such taxable year by dealers making a market in our common shares (for this purpose, a dealer is
treated as making a market only if the dealer regularly and actively offers to, and in fact does, purchase our common shares from, and sell our common shares to, unrelated customers in the ordinary course of a trade or business) or
(ii) (A) trades in our common shares are effected, other than in de minimis quantities, on established securities markets in the United States on at least 60 days during the taxable year (or a proportionate number of days in a short
taxable year) and (B) the aggregate number of common shares that are traded on established securities markets in the United States during such taxable year are at least 10% of the average number of our common shares outstanding during the
taxable year (or a specified lesser percentage, in the case of a short taxable year).
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We believe that we satisfied the
requirements described above for 2006 and will satisfy such requirements for subsequent taxable years. However, under Treasury regulations in effect for 2006 and subsequent years, even if we satisfy the requirements described above, we will not
satisfy the publicly traded test for any year in which we have only common shares outstanding if, for more than half of the number of days during the taxable year, one or more persons that own, actually or under applicable constructive ownership
rules, five percent or more of our common shares (five-percent shareholders) own, in the aggregate, 50 percent or more of our common shares (the closely-held exception), unless we can establish, in accordance with
documentation procedures set forth in the regulations, that individuals resident in qualified foreign countries (qualified shareholders) own, directly or under applicable constructive ownership rules, enough of our common shares taken
into account in determining whether the closely-held exception applies to preclude non-qualified shareholders in the closely-held block of shares from owning 50 percent or more of our common shares for more than half the days of the taxable year.
There can be no assurance that our shareholders will provide us with the documentation required to avoid the application of the closely-held exception under these rules. For purposes of determining the application of the closely-held exception,
certain related shareholders are treated as a single shareholder and investment companies registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, are not treated as five percent shareholders.



82

##### Table of Contents

In determining whether our shares are closely-held for purposes of the closely-held exception, we
generally may rely upon certain filings with the United States Securities Exchange Commission to identify our five percent shareholders. Based upon current filings, and our beliefs regarding which of our shareholders are investment companies
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, we believe that our common shares are not currently closely-held for purposes of the closely-held exception. There can be no assurance, however, that the ownership of our common shares
will not change in such a way that we would need to comply with the documentation procedures set forth in the Section 883 regulations in order to establish that the closely-held exception did not apply to us. In such circumstances, however, it
is possible that we may be unable to demonstrate that the closely held exception does not apply to us, as our shareholders may not comply with documentation requirements or we may not have sufficient qualified shareholders to satisfy the
requirements for avoiding application of the closely-held exception. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that we will qualify for the reciprocal exemption.

Taxation of Our Operations if the Reciprocal Exemption Is Unavailable

To the extent that the
reciprocal exemption is not available to us or to our vessel-operating subsidiaries, then we and our vessel-operating subsidiaries generally will be subject to United States federal income tax on United States-source international transportation
income under one of two alternative systems. Under the first system, we generally will be subject to a four percent tax on the gross amount of the United States-source international transportation income derived by us or by a vessel-operating
subsidiary that is not considered to be effectively connected with the conduct of a United States trade or business. Under the second system, the United States-source international transportation income that we or a vessel-operating subsidiary
derives that is considered to be effectively connected with the conduct of a United States trade or business, determined after allowance of allocable deductions, will be subject to general United States federal income tax at normal corporate rates,
currently at 35 percent. In addition, under the second system, we or the vessel-operating subsidiary will be subject to a 30 percent branch-level tax on earnings that are effectively connected with the conduct of such trade or business, as
determined after allowance for certain adjustments, and on certain interest paid or deemed paid by a United States trade or business.

At
present, we do not expect that any of the United States-source international transportation income to be derived by us or by our vessel-operating subsidiaries will be effectively connected with the conduct of a United States trade or business.
Accordingly, we expect that any United States-source international transportation income that does not qualify for the reciprocal exemption would be subject to the four percent tax on such gross income. If the manner in which we conduct our
operations were to change, our international transportation income could come to be treated as effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business, in which case, if the reciprocal exemption were not available, it would be subject to tax under the
second system described above, rather than subject to a four percent gross income tax.

Based on the current and projected operations of
our vessels, we believe that less than 30% of the aggregate gross income of our vessel-operating subsidiaries would be treated as United States-source income subject to the four-percent tax if our vessel-operating subsidiaries do not qualify for the
benefits of the reciprocal exemption. Changes in the itineraries of our vessels or other changes in the amount, source or character of our income could affect the amount of income that would be subject to United States tax in future years.

United States Holders

Distributions

Subject to the discussion below under Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations,
distributions that we make with respect to the common shares, other than distributions in liquidation and distributions in redemption of stock that are treated as exchanges, will be taxed to United States holders as dividend income to the extent
that the distributions do not exceed our current and accumulated earnings and profits (as determined for United States federal income tax purposes). Distributions, if any, in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits will constitute
a nontaxable return of capital to a United States holder and will be applied against and reduce



83



---

##### Table of Contents

the United States holders tax basis in its common shares. To the extent that distributions in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and
profits exceed the tax basis of the United States holder in its common shares, the excess generally will be treated as capital gain.

Qualifying dividends received by individuals in taxable years beginning prior to January 1, 2011 are eligible for taxation at capital gains rates (currently 15% for individuals not eligible for a lower rate). We are a non-United States
corporation. Dividends paid by a non-United States corporation are eligible to be treated as qualifying dividends only if (i) the non-United States corporation is incorporated in a possession of the United States, (ii) the non-United
States corporation is eligible for the benefits of a comprehensive income tax treaty with the United States or (iii) the stock with respect to which the dividends are paid is readily tradable on an established securities market in the
United States. We will not satisfy either of the conditions described in clauses (i) and (ii) of the preceding sentence. We expect that distributions on our common shares that are treated as dividends will qualify as dividends on
stock that is readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States so long as our common shares are traded on the New York Stock Exchange. In addition, dividends paid by a non-United States corporation will not be
treated as qualifying dividends if the non-United States corporation is a passive foreign investment company (a PFIC) for the taxable year of the dividend or the prior taxable year. Our potential treatment as a PFIC is
discussed below under the heading Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations. A dividend will also not be treated as a qualifying dividend to the extent that (i) the shareholder does not satisfy a holding period
requirement that generally requires that the shareholder hold the shares on which the dividend is paid for more than 60 days during the 121-day period that begins on the date which is sixty days before the date on which the shares become ex-dividend
with respect to such dividend, (ii) the shareholder is under an obligation to make related payments with respect to substantially similar or related property or (iii) such dividend is taken into account as investment income under
Section 163(d)(4)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code.

Dividend income derived with respect to the common shares generally will
constitute portfolio income for purposes of the limitation on the use of passive activity losses, and, therefore, generally may not be offset by passive activity losses, and, unless treated as qualifying dividends as described above (for taxable
years beginning before January 1, 2011) as investment income for purposes of the limitation on the deduction of investment interest expense. Dividends that we pay will not be eligible for the dividends received deduction generally allowed to
United States corporations under Section 243 of the Internal Revenue Code.

For foreign tax credit purposes, if at least 50 percent of
our stock by voting power or by value is owned, directly, indirectly or by attribution, by United States persons, then, subject to the limitation described below, a portion of the dividends that we pay in each taxable year will be treated as United
States-source income, depending in general upon the ratio for that taxable year of our United States-source earnings and profits to our total earnings and profits. The remaining portion of our dividends (or all of our dividends, if we do not meet
the 50 percent test described above) will be treated as foreign-source income and generally will be treated as passive category income or, in the case of certain types of United States Holders, general category income for purposes of computing
allowable foreign tax credits for United States federal income tax purposes. However, if, in any taxable year, we have earnings and profits and less than ten percent of those earnings and profits are from United States sources, then, in general,
dividends that we pay from our earnings and profits for that taxable year will be treated entirely as foreign-source income. Where a United States holder that is an individual receives a dividend on our shares that is a qualifying dividend (as
described in the second preceding paragraph) in a taxable year beginning before January 1, 2011, special rules will apply that will limit the portion of such dividend that will be included in such individuals foreign source taxable income
and overall taxable income for purposes of calculating such individuals foreign tax credit limitation.

Sale or Exchange

Subject to the discussion below under Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations, upon a sale or exchange of
common shares to a person other than Tsakos Energy Navigation Limited (or certain related entities), a United States holder will recognize gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized on the sale or exchange and the
United States holders adjusted tax basis in the common shares. Any gain or loss recognized will be capital gain or loss and will be long-term capital gain or loss if the United States holder has held the common shares for more than one year.

Passive Foreign Investment Company
Considerations

PFIC Classification. Special and adverse United States tax rules apply to a United States holder that holds
an interest in a PFIC. In general, a PFIC is any foreign corporation, if (1) 75 percent or more of the gross income of the corporation for the taxable year is passive income (the PFIC income test) or (2) the average percentage
of assets held by the corporation during the taxable year that produce passive income or that are held for the production of passive income is at least 50 percent (the PFIC asset test). In applying the PFIC income test and the PFIC asset
test, a corporation that owns, directly or indirectly, at least 25 percent by value of the stock of a second corporation must take into account its proportionate share of the second corporations income and assets.

If a corporation is classified as a PFIC for any year during which a United States person is a shareholder, then the corporation generally will continue
to be treated as a PFIC with respect to that shareholder in all succeeding years, regardless of whether the corporation continues to meet the PFIC income test or the PFIC asset test, subject to elections to recognize gain that may be available to
the shareholder.

To date, we and our subsidiaries have derived most of our income from time and voyage charters, and we expect to continue
to do so. This income should be treated as services income, which is not treated as passive income for PFIC purposes. On this basis, we do not believe that we were treated as a PFIC for our current taxable year or that we will be treated as a PFIC
for our taxable year beginning January 1, 2006 or for any future taxable year. This conclusion is based in part upon our beliefs regarding our past assets and income and our current projections and expectations as to our future business
activity, including, in particular, our expectation that the proportion of our income derived from bareboat charters will not materially increase. Moreover, the IRS may disagree with the conclusion that time and voyage charters do not give rise to
passive income for purposes of the PFIC income test. Accordingly, we can provide no assurance that we will not be treated as a PFIC for our taxable year beginning January 1, 2006 or for any subsequent taxable year.

Consequences of PFIC Status. If we are treated as a PFIC for any taxable year during which a United States holder holds our common shares, then,
subject to the discussion of the qualified electing fund (QEF) and mark-to-market rules below, the United States holder will be subject to a special and adverse tax regime in respect of (1) gains realized on the sale or other
disposition of our common shares and (2) distributions on our common shares to the extent that those distributions are treated as excess distributions. An excess distribution generally includes dividends or other distributions received from a
PFIC in any taxable year of a United States holder to the extent that the amount of those distributions exceeds 125 percent of the average distributions made by the PFIC during a specified base period. A United States holder that is subject to the
PFIC rules (1) will be required to allocate excess distributions received in respect of our common shares and gain realized on the sale of common shares to each day during the United States holders holding period for the common shares,
(2) will be required to include in income as ordinary income the portion of the excess distribution or gain that is allocated to the current taxable year and to certain pre-PFIC years, and (3) will be taxable at the highest rate of
taxation applicable to ordinary income for the prior years, other than pre-PFIC years, to which the excess distribution or gain is allocable, without regard to the United States holders other items of income and loss for such prior taxable
years (deferred tax). The deferred tax for each prior year will be increased by an interest charge for the period from the due date for tax returns for the prior year to the due date for tax returns for the year of the excess
distribution or gain, computed at the rates that apply to underpayments of tax. Pledges of PFIC shares will be treated as dispositions for purposes of the foregoing rules. In addition, a United States holder who acquires common shares from a
decedent prior to 2010 generally will not receive a stepped-up basis in the common shares. Instead, the United States holder will have a tax basis in the common shares equal to the lower of the fair market value of the common shares and the
decedents basis.

QEF Election. In some circumstances, a United States holder may avoid the unfavorable consequences of the
PFIC rules by making a QEF election with respect to us. A QEF election effectively would require an electing United States holder to include in income currently its pro rata share of our ordinary earnings and net capital gain. However, a United
States holder cannot make a QEF election with respect to us unless we comply with certain reporting requirements and we currently do not intend to provide the required information.

##### Table of Contents

Mark-to-Market Election. A United States holder that holds marketable stock in a PFIC
may, in lieu of making a QEF election, avoid some of the unfavorable consequences of the PFIC rules by electing to mark the PFIC stock to market as of the close of each taxable year. Under recently promulgated regulations, the common shares will be
treated as marketable stock for a calendar year if the common shares are traded on the New York Stock Exchange, in other than de minimis quantities, on at least 15 days during each calendar quarter of the year. A United States holder that makes the
mark-to-market election generally will be required to include in income each year as ordinary income an amount equal to the increase in value of the common shares for that year, regardless of whether the United States holder actually sells the
common shares. The United States holder generally will be allowed a deduction for the decrease in value of the common shares for the taxable year, to the extent of the amount of gain previously included in income under the mark-to-market rules,
reduced by prior deductions under the mark-to-market rules. Any gain from the actual sale of the PFIC stock will be treated as ordinary income, and any loss will be treated as ordinary loss to the extent of net mark-to-market gains previously
included in income and not reversed by prior deductions.

Other PFIC Elections. Under recently issued temporary regulations, if a
United States holder held our stock during a period when we were treated as a PFIC but the United States holder did not have a QEF election in effect with respect to us, then in the event that we failed to qualify as a PFIC for a subsequent taxable
year, the United States holder could elect to cease to be subject to the rules described above with respect to those shares by making a deemed sale or, in certain circumstances, a deemed dividend election with respect to our
stock. If the United States holder makes a deemed sale election, the United States holder will be treated, for purposes of applying the rules described above under the heading Consequences of PFIC Status, as having disposed of our stock
for its fair market value on the last day of the last taxable year for which we qualified as a PFIC (the termination date). The United States holder would increase his, her or its basis in such common stock by the amount of the gain on
the deemed sale described in the preceding sentence. Following a deemed sale election, the United States holder would not be treated, for purposes of the PFIC rules, as having owned the common stock during a period prior to the termination date when
we qualified as a PFIC.

If we were treated as a controlled foreign corporation for United States federal income tax purposes
for the taxable year that included the termination date, then a United States holder could make a deemed dividend election with respect to our common stock. If a deemed dividend election is made, the United States holder is required to
include in income as a dividend his, her or its pro rata share (based on all of our stock held by the United States holder, directly or under applicable attribution rules, on the termination date) of our post-1986 earnings and profits as of the
close of the taxable year that includes the termination date (taking only earnings and profits accumulated in taxable years in which we were a PFIC into account). The deemed dividend described in the preceding sentence is treated as an excess
distribution for purposes of the rules described above under the heading Consequences of PFIC Status. The United States holder would increase his, her or its basis in our stock by the amount of the deemed dividend. Following a deemed
dividend election, the United States holder would not be treated, for purposes of the PFIC rules, as having owned the stock during a period prior to the termination date when we qualified as a PFIC. For purposes of determining whether the deemed
dividend election is available, we generally will be treated as a controlled foreign corporation for a taxable year when, at any time during that year, United States persons, each of whom owns, directly or under applicable attribution rules, shares
having 10% or more of the total voting power of our stock, in the aggregate own, directly or under applicable attribution rules, shares representing more than 50% of the voting power or value of our stock.

A deemed sale or deemed dividend election must be made on the United States holders original or amended return for the shareholders taxable
year that includes the termination date and, if made on an amended return, such amended return must be filed not later than the date that is three years after the due date of the original return for such taxable year. Special rules apply where a
person is treated, for purposes of the PFIC rules, as indirectly owning our common stock.

You are urged to consult your own tax advisor
regarding our possible classification as a PFIC, as well as the potential tax consequences arising from the ownership and disposition, directly or indirectly, of interests in a PFIC.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

Payments of dividends and sales proceeds that are made within the United States or through certain U.S.-related financial intermediaries generally are subject to information reporting and backup withholding unless
(i) you are a corporation or other exempt recipient or (ii) in the case of backup withholding, you provide a correct taxpayer identification number and certify that you are not subject to backup withholding.

|Item 11. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
|-------- | ----------------------------------------------------------

Our risk management policy. Our policy is to continuously monitor our exposure to business risks, including the impact of changes in interest rates, currency rates, and bunker prices on earnings and cash flows. We intend to assess
these risks and, when appropriate, enter into derivative contracts with creditworthy counter parties to minimize our exposure to these risks. As part of our efforts to manage our risk, we have in the past entered into derivative contracts for both
hedging and, periodically, trading purposes.

In August 2001, we created a Risk Committee, which is comprised of our finance director and a
standing committee of the board of directors. The primary role of the Risk Committee is to:



| |  |  | continuously review and assess all activities that may generate exposure to risk and ensure we are taking appropriate measures;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | ensure that our policies and procedures for evaluating and managing risks are effective and do not significantly increase overall risk; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | assess the effectiveness of derivative contracts and recommend, if necessary, the early termination of any contract.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Our risk management policy provides for the following procedures:



| |  |  | All recommendations to enter into a derivative contract must originate either from qualified officers or directors of the company or from equivalent specialized
officers of our technical manager;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | All recommendations to enter into a derivative contract must be reviewed by a combined team of officers and advice is taken, as applicable, from third-party sources
(e.g., our bankers, other banks, bunker brokers, insurers, etc.);
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Any recommendation must be formalized into a specific proposal which defines the risks to be managed, the action to be implemented, and the benefits and potential
risks of the proposed derivative contract, which proposal shall be presented to the risk committee; and

Interest rate risk

The Company is exposed to market risk from
changes in interest rates, which could impact its results of operations, financial condition and cash flow. The Company manages its ratio of fixed to floating rate debt with the objective of achieving a mix that reflects managements interest
rate outlook. We currently have $237.8 million in effective hedging swaps and a further $346.5 million in interest rate swaps that do not currently meet hedging criteria. The annualized impact in terms of swap related interest payable resulting from
a one-percentage point increase in interest rates would be an increase of approximately $3.4 million in earnings and cash flow. The annualized impact resulting from a one-percentage point decrease in interest rates would be a decrease of
approximately $5.3 million in earnings and cash flow.

The table below provides information about our financial instruments at December 31, 2006,
which are sensitive to changes in interest rate, including our debt and interest rate swaps. For debt obligations, the table presents principal cash flows and related weighted average interest rates by expected maturity dates. Weighted-average
variable rates are based on the implied forward rates in the yield curves at the reporting date. For interest rate swaps, the table presents notional amounts and weighted- average interest rates by expected contractual maturity dates. Notional
amounts are used to calculate the contractual payments to be exchanged under the contracts.

Bunker price risk

On
November 17, 2006, the Company entered into a swap arrangement whereby it pays to the counterparty a fixed price of $267 dollars per metric ton (MT) for a notional 1,000 MT of Fuel Oil for each of the months January, February and March 2007 and
receives from the counterparty a floating price dependent on a monthly arithmetical average of daily market prices provided by Platts, a leading provider of energy information. As at December 31, 2006, the value of this contract was $36
thousand net payable to the counterparty.

Foreign exchange rate fluctuation

The currency the international tanker industry is primarily using is the U.S. dollar. Virtually all of our revenues are in U.S. dollars and the majority
of our operating costs are incurred in U.S. dollars. We incur certain operating expenses in foreign currencies, the most significant of which are in Euros. During fiscal 2006, approximately 20% of the total of our vessel and voyage costs, overhead
and dry-dock expenditures were denominated in Euro. However, we have the ability to shift our purchase of goods and services from one country to another and, thus, from one currency to another in order to mitigate the effects of exchange rate
fluctuations. We have a policy of continuously monitoring and managing our foreign exchange exposure. To date, we have not engaged in any foreign currency hedging transactions, as we do not believe we have had significant risk exposure to foreign
currency fluctuations.

Inflation

Although inflation has had a moderate impact on operating expenses, dry docking expenses and corporate overhead, our management does not consider inflation to be a significant risk to direct costs in the current and foreseeable economic
environment. However, if inflation becomes a significant factor in the world economy, inflationary pressures could result in increased operating and financing costs.

|-------- | -----------------------

A. Evaluation of
Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Companys management, with the participation of the Companys chief executive
officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this annual report. Based on that evaluation, the chief executive officer and the chief
financial officer concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this annual report were designed and were functioning effectively to provide reasonable assurance that the information
required to be disclosed by the Company in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms. The Company believes
that a system of controls, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the controls are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of
fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.

B. Managements Annual Report of Internal Financial ReportingControls

The management of Tsakos Energy Navigation Ltd. and its subsidiaries (the Company), according to
Rule 13a-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, is responsible for the establishment and maintenance of adequate internal controls over financial reporting for the Company. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed
to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Companys financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
However, in any system of internal control there are inherent limitations and consequently internal control over financial reporting may not absolutely prevent or detect misstatements.

The Companys system of internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that:



| | (i) | pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company;
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (ii) | provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and
| | ---- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (iii) | provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Companys assets that could have a material effect
on the financial statements.
| | ----- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Management has performed an assessment of the effectiveness of the Companys internal
control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006, based on the criteria established within Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on our
assessment, management has determined that the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006, is effective.

C. Attestation Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

This annual report does not include an
attestation report by the Companys registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting, due to a transition period established by rules of the SEC for foreign private issuers that are not large accelerated
filers.

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of

TSAKOS ENERGY NAVIGATION LIMITED

We have audited the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets of TSAKOS ENERGY NAVIGATION
LIMITED and subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the related Consolidated Statements of Income, Stockholders Equity, and Cash Flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31,
2006. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Companys internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial
reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we
express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the
financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of TSAKOS ENERGY NAVIGATION LIMITED and subsidiaries at December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the consolidated results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2006, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2004, 2005 AND 2006

(Expressed in thousands of United States
Dollars, except for share and per share data, unless otherwise stated)



|1. | Significant Accounting Policies
|-- | -------------------------------



| | (a) | Basis of presentation and description of business: The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) and include the accounts of Tsakos Energy Navigation Limited (the Holding Company), and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the Company). Significant intercompany
balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Company owns and operates a fleet of crude and product
oil carriers providing worldwide marine transportation services under long, medium or short-term charters.



| | (b) | Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of
assets and liabilities reported in the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (c) | Foreign Currency Translation:The functional currency of the Company is the U.S. Dollar because the Companys vessels operate in international shipping
markets in which the U.S. Dollar is utilized to transact most business. The accounting books of the Holding Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries are also maintained in U.S. Dollars. Transactions involving other currencies during the year
are converted into U.S. Dollars using the exchange rates in effect at the time of the transactions. At the balance sheet dates, monetary assets and liabilities, which are denominated in other currencies, are translated into U.S. Dollars at the
year-end exchange rates. Resulting gains or losses are separately reflected in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income.
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (d) | Cash and Cash Equivalents:The Company classifies highly liquid investments such as time deposits and certificates of deposit with original maturity of three months or
less as cash and cash equivalents. Minimum cash deposits required to be maintained with banks for loan compliance purposes and deposits with certain banks that may only be used for the purpose of loan repayments are classified as Restricted cash.
| | --- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (e) | Trade Accounts Receivable, Net: Trade accounts receivable, net at each balance sheet date, includes estimated recoveries from charterers for hire, freight and
demurrage billings and revenue earned but not yet billed, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts ($641 and $270 as of December 31, 2005 and 2006, respectively). Revenue earned but not yet billed amounted to $6,143 and $6,710 as of
December 31, 2005 and 2006, respectively.
| | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (f) | Inventories: Inventories consist of bunkers, lubricants, victualling and stores and are stated at the lower of cost or market value. The cost is determined by the
first-in, first-out method.
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (g) | Investments:All investments with original maturities greater than three months and with maturities less than one year from the balance sheet date are considered
short-term investments. Investments with maturities greater than one year from the balance sheet date are considered long-term investments. For investments for which the embedded derivative can be bifurcated from the host contract, changes in the
fair value of the non-derivative instrument are reported in Accumulated other comprehensive income, while changes in the fair value of the derivative instrument are reported in Interest income. For investments for which the embedded derivative
cannot be bifurcated, changes in the fair value of the entire investment are reported in Interest income.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2004, 2005 AND 2006

(Expressed in thousands of United States Dollars, except for share and per share data, unless otherwise stated)



|1. | Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
|-- | -------------------------------------------



| | (h) | Fixed Assets: Fixed assets consist primarily of vessels. Vessels are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. The cost of vessels includes the contract price and
pre-delivery costs incurred during the construction of new buildings, including capitalized interest, and expenses incurred upon acquisition of second-hand vessels. Subsequent expenditures for conversions and major improvements are capitalized when
they appreciably extend the life, increase the earning capacity or improve the efficiency or safety of the vessels; otherwise they are charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures for routine maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Depreciation is provided on the straight-line method based on the estimated remaining economic useful lives of the vessels,
less an estimated residual scrap value. Economic useful lives are estimated at 25 years from the date of original delivery from the shipyard, adjusted as necessary for any regulations that may require earlier phase-out.



| | (i) | Impairment of Vessels: The Company reviews vessels for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a vessel may not be
recoverable. Impairment for a vessel is recognized when the estimate of future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the use of the vessel over its remaining useful life and its eventual disposition is less than its carrying amount.
Measurement of the impairment is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair market value of the asset. No impairment loss was recorded in 2004, 2005 and 2006.
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (j) | Accounting for Special Survey and Dry-docking Costs:The Company follows the deferral method of accounting for dry-docking and special survey
costs whereby actual costs incurred are reported in Deferred charges and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the period through the date the next dry-docking is scheduled to become due. Costs incurred during the dry-docking period relating
to routine repairs and maintenance are expensed. The unamortized portion of special survey and dry-docking costs for vessels that are sold is included as part of the carrying amount of the vessel in determining the gain on sale of the vessel.
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (k) | Loan Costs: Costs incurred for obtaining new loans or refinancing existing loans are capitalized and included in deferred charges and amortized over the term of the
respective loan, using the effective interest rate method. Any unamortized balance of costs relating to loans repaid or refinanced as debt extinguishments is expensed in the period the repayment or extinguishment is made.
| | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (l) | Accounting for Revenue and Expenses: Voyage revenues are generated from freight billings and time charter hire. Time charter revenue, including bare-boat hire,
is recorded over the term of the charter as the service is provided. Revenues from voyage charters on the spot market or under contract of affreightment are recognized on a percentage of completion method using the discharge to discharge basis.
Vessel voyage and operating expenses and charter hire expense are expensed when incurred. Unearned revenue represents cash received prior to the year end which relates to revenue applicable to periods after the year-end. The operating revenues and
voyage expenses of vessels operating under a tanker pool are pooled and are allocated to the pool participants on a time charter equivalent basis, according to an agreed formula. Revenues from variable hire arrangements are recognized to the extent
the amounts are fixed or determinable at the reporting date.
| | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

TSAKOS ENERGY NAVIGATION LIMITED

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2004, 2005 AND 2006

(Expressed in thousands of United States Dollars, except for share and per share data, unless otherwise stated)



|1. | Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
|-- | -------------------------------------------



Voyage revenues for 2004, 2005 and 2006, included revenues derived from significant charterers as
follows (in percentages of total voyage revenues):



|          |  |           |  |      |  |          
|--------- |  | --------- |  | ---- |  | ---------
|Charterer |  | 2004      |  | 2005 |  | 2006     
|A         |  | 19%       |  | 16%  |  | 13%      
|B         |  | Under 10% |  | 11%  |  | Under 10%
|C         |  | Under 10% |  | 11%  |  | Under 10%



| | (m) | Segment Reporting:The Company does not evaluate the operating results by type of vessel or by type of charter. Although operating results may be identified by type of
vessel, management, including the chief operating decision maker, reviews operating results primarily by revenue per day and operating results of the fleet. Thus the Company has determined that it operates in one reportable segment, the worldwide
maritime transportation of crude and refined oil.
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (n) | Derivative Financial Instruments: The Company regularly enters into interest rate swap contracts to manage its exposure to fluctuations of interest rates associated
with its specific borrowings. Interest rate differentials paid or received under these swap agreements are recognized as part of interest expense related to the hedged debt. All derivatives are recognized in the consolidated financial statements at
their fair value. On the inception date of the derivative contract, the Company designates the derivative as a hedge of a forecasted transaction or the variability of cash flow to be paid (cash flow hedge). Changes in the fair value of a
derivative that is qualified, designated and highly effective as a cash flow hedge are recorded in other comprehensive income until earnings are affected by the forecasted transaction or the variability of cash flow and are then reported in current
earnings. Changes in the fair value of undesignated derivative instruments and the ineffective portion of designated derivative instruments are reported in current earnings.
| | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Company formally documents all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as the risk-management objective and strategy for
undertaking various hedge transactions. This process includes linking all derivatives that are designated as cash flow hedges to specific forecasted transactions or variability of cash flow.

The Company also formally assesses, both at the hedges inception and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivatives that are used in hedging
transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flow of hedged items. When it is determined that a derivative is not highly effective as a hedge or that it has ceased to be a highly effective hedge, the Company discontinues hedge
accounting prospectively, in accordance with FASB Statement 133.



| | (o) | Accounting for Leases:Leases of assets under which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are effectively retained by the lessor are classified as
operating leases. Lease payments under an operating lease are recognized as an expense on a straight-line method over the lease term.
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (p) | Stock Based Compensation: The Company has a share based incentive plan and, until July 2006, a stock option plan that covers directors and officers of the
Company and employees of the related companies discussed in Note 2 (See Note 10). The Company applies the fair-value-based method of accounting for share-based payments in accordance with FASB Statement 123(R), and used the Black-Scholes-Merton
formula to estimate the grant date fair value of stock options granted to employees.

|1. | Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
|-- | -------------------------------------------



The Company adopted FASB Statement 123(R) under the modified prospective transition method on
January 1, 2006. Adoption of FASB Statement 123(R) did not have any impact on the Companys earnings and financial position because the Company had previously adopted FASB Statement 123. The Company recognized compensation expense for the
grants of shares of restricted stock awarded in 2006. The fair value of restricted stock at the grant date is equal to the closing stock price on that date and is amortized over the applicable vesting period using the straight-line method.



| | (q) | Recent Accounting Pronouncements: In June 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. This Interpretation
clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprises financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. It applies to all tax positions accounted for in
accordance with Statement 109. The Interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position expected to be taken in a tax return. It is effective for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company does not believe that the adoption of Interpretation No. 48 will have any impact on its earnings and financial position.
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement 157, Fair Value Measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring
fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements and, therefore, the Statement does not require any new fair value
measurements. The Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company does not believe that the adoption of Statement 157 will have a material impact on its results of
operations and financial position.

In September 2006, with the release of Staff Accounting Bulletin 108 (SAB 108)
Considering the effects of prior year misstatements when quantifying misstatements in current year financial statement the SEC staff provided interpretative guidance on the consideration of the effects of prior year misstatements in
quantifying current year misstatements for the purpose of a materiality assessment. The adoption of this SEC release did not have an effect on the Companys financial position or results of operations.

In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. This Statement permits
entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. The objective of the Statement is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with
the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings. It also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities. This Statement does not affect any existing accounting literature that
requires certain assets and liabilities to be carried at fair value. The Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company does not believe that the adoption of Statement 159
will have a material impact on its results of operations and financial position.

| | (a) | Tsakos Energy Management Limited:The Company has a Management Agreement (Management Agreement) with Tsakos Energy Management Limited (the Management
Company), a Liberian corporation, to provide overall executive and commercial management of its affairs for a monthly fee of $18 per owned vessel and $12.5 per chartered-in vessel from July 1, 2004 ($15 per vessel for all vessels in the
first six months of 2004).
| | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In addition to the management fee, the Management Agreement provides for an incentive award to the
Management Company, which is at the absolute discretion of the Companys Board of Directors. The incentive award program is based on the Companys annual return on equity (ROE), and an award scale for 2006, ranging from ROE
greater than 15% corresponding to an award amount of $1,250 ($1,000 in 2004 and 2005) up to ROE greater than 25% with an award amount of $3,500 ($2,500 in 2004 and 2005). For 2006, 2005 and 2004 the ROE was in excess of 25%. Therefore, the 2006 and
2005 incentive awards of $3,500 and $2,500 respectively were approved by the Board of Directors, and are expensed and recognized in accrued liabilities in the accompanying December 31, 2006 and 2005 Consolidated Balance Sheets. In 2007, the
award amounts corresponding to the award scale have increased to $1,500 up to $4,500.

The Company and Tsakos Energy Management Limited have certain officers and directors in common. The
President, who is also the Chief Executive Officer and a Director of the Company, is also the sole stockholder of Tsakos Energy Management Limited. Tsakos Energy Management Limited may unilaterally terminate its Management Agreement with the Company
at any time upon one years notice. In addition, if even one director was elected to the Companys Board of Directors without having been recommended by the existing board, Tsakos Energy Management Limited would have the right to terminate
the Management Agreement on ten days notice. If Tsakos Energy Management Limited terminates the agreement for this reason, the Company would be obligated to pay Tsakos Energy Management Limited the present value of all payments that would have
otherwise become due under the Management Agreement until June 30 in the tenth year following the date of the termination plus the average of the incentive awards previously paid to Tsakos Energy Management Limited multiplied by ten. This would
result in a total payment of approximately $106,000 as of December 31, 2006. Under the terms of the Management Agreement between the Company and Tsakos Energy Management Limited, the Company may terminate the agreement only under specific
circumstances, such as breach of contract by the manager and change of control in the shareholding of the manager without the prior approval of the Companys Board of Directors.

The management agreement has been amended effective January 1, 2007, to raise the monthly fee to $20 per owned vessel and $15 for vessels
chartered-in or chartered out on a bare-boat basis, with a prorated adjustment if at each year end the Euro has appreciated by 10% or more against the Dollar since the beginning of the year. Estimated future management fees payable over the next ten
years under this new management agreement described above, exclusive of any incentive awards and based on existing vessels and known vessels scheduled for future delivery as at December 31, 2006, are:

| | (a) | Gain on Olympia Sale-leaseback transaction:A capital gain of $2,654 from the sale of the Olympia in 1999 as part of a sale-leaseback transaction was deferred
in full. During 2006, the Company exercised its option to re-purchase the vessel with delivery to take place at the first convenient port following the year-end. Consequently, the vessel was re-delivered to the Company in January 2007 for a price of
$31,115. The deferred capital gain will be netted against the purchase price. Lease payments relating to the time charter of the Olympiaamounted to $7,687, $7,759, and $7,853 during the years ended December 31, 2004, 2005 and 2006,
respectively, and are recorded in Charter hire expense.

| | (b) | Gain on Decathlon/Pentathlon Sale-leaseback transactions:In October and November 2003, respectively, the Company sold two suezmaxes and time-chartered the vessels
(re-named Cape Baker and Cape Balboa respectively) back from the buyer for a minimum period of five years, with options to extend the charters for a further three years. In addition, at the end of the first five years, or until the end
of the seventh year if the charter is extended, the Company has the option to buy the vessels at specified amounts. The charter back agreements are accounted for as operating leases and the gains on the sale of $8,340 and $7,497 respectively were
deferred and are amortized in proportion to the gross rental charge to expense over the five year lease period. Lease payments relating to the time charters of the Cape Baker and Cape Balboa were $8,326 each in 2004, $8,255 and $8,304
respectively in 2005 and $8,304 each in 2006, and are recorded in Charter hire expense.

As at December 31, 2006, the Company was committed to the following interest rate swap

During 2006, five interest rate swaps (vii. to xi. above) were de-designated following prepayment
of loans to which they related, which resulted in those swaps no longer meeting the criteria for hedge accounting. The fair values of such instruments at the date of their de-designation, marked-to-market through other comprehensive income until
that date, were immediately reclassified to earnings and included in reclassification adjustments on undesignated cash flow hedges in the table above. A further interest rate swap (xii. above) was entered into during 2006 that did not meet hedge
accounting criteria. As a result, at December 31, 2006, the Company held nine interest rate swaps (iv. to xii. above) that did not meet hedge accounting criteria. As such, the changes in their fair values during 2006, for the period that they
did not meet hedging criteria, have been included in change in fair value of non-hedging financial instruments, in the table above.

During
2006, the Company entered into one new interest rate swap agreement (iii. above) that is accounted for as a hedge of the Companys variable interest rate payments on new bank loans drawn in 2006. As at December 31, 2005 and 2006 the
Company respectively held seven and three (i. to iii. above) interest rate swap agreements in order to hedge its exposure to interest rate fluctuations associated with its debt. The fair value of such financial instruments as of December 31,
2005 and 2006 in aggregate amounted to $3,067 and $1,646, respectively and are reflected directly in Accumulated other comprehensive income in Stockholders Equity.

|10. | Stockholders Equity
|--- | --------------------

Repurchases of stock for
the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2006 amounted to $37,756 and $5,261, respectively. The transactions were open market based through the Oslo Børs (until March 2005) or New York Stock Exchange. Repurchased shares are immediately
considered as canceled in accordance with the Companys bye-laws and Bermudan Company Law.

In September 2005, the Board of Directors
of the Company adopted a shareholder rights plan that authorizes to existing shareholders substantial preferred share rights and additional common shares if any third party acquires 15% or more of the outstanding common shares or announces its
intent to commence a tender offer for at least 15% of the common shares, in each case, in a transaction that the Board of Directors has not approved.

In 1998, the Company adopted a Stock Option Plan authorizing the issuance of up to 450,000 options to purchase common shares (the 1998 Plan). All the options under the plan were granted to directors and
officers of the Company and other persons who were judged capable of influencing the development of the Companys business. In August 2001, all outstanding stock options were vested by action of the Board of Directors and all Company
performance conditions to the exercise of such options were removed. In July 2006 the Plan ceased and any remaining unexercised options were deemed forfeited.

In 2004, the shareholders approved a share-based incentive plan providing for the granting of up to 500,000 of stock options or other share-based awards to directors and officers of the Company as well as to employees
of the related companies (the 2004 Plan). In June 2006, the Company granted a total of 10,000 restricted share units (RSUs) to the non-executive directors, to vest after one year. The fair market value of the RSUs at the date of the
award was $36.87 per unit. Accordingly, an amount of $369 is being amortized to compensation expense over one year. Total compensation expense recognized for the year ended December 31, 2006 amounted to $216. Of the 10,000 RSUs awarded in 2006,
none had been vested or forfeited as at December 31, 2006. As of December 31, 2006 the weighted average remaining contractual life of outstanding grants is 0.5 years.

A summary of the Companys stock option activity relating to the 1998 Plan is as follows:

|11. | Earnings per Common Share
|--- | -------------------------

The computation of basic
earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. The computation of diluted earnings per share assumes the foregoing and the exercise of all stock options and grants of restricted stock (see
Note 10) using the treasury stock method.



|                                            |  |      |            |      |   |            |  |   |

|                                            |  |      |            |      |   |            |  |   |

For the above years, there were no stock options considered anti-dilutive which would have resulted
in their exclusion from the computation of diluted earnings per common share. The 10,000 shares of restricted common stock granted in 2006 were considered dilutive and are included in the computation.



|12. | Sale of Interest in Subsidiary
|--- | ------------------------------

In August 2006, the
Company signed an agreement with Polaris Oil Shipping Inc. (Polaris), an affiliate of Flota Petrolera Ecuatoriana (Flopec), by which Polaris acquired 49% of Mare Success S.A., a previously wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, for proceeds net of
commissions and other related costs of $25,323. Mare Success S.A. is the holding-company of two Panamanian registered companies which own respectively the vessels Maya and Inca. The agreement became effective on November 30, 2006,
and for the year ended December 31, 2006, the Company has recognized a gain of $25,323. Mare Success S.A. is fully consolidated in the accompanying financial statements.



|13. | Income Taxes
|--- | ------------

Under the laws of the countries of
the companies incorporation and/or vessels registration, the companies are not subject to tax on international shipping income. However, they are subject to registration and tonnage taxes, which have been included in Vessel operating
expenses.

The Company believes that it and its subsidiaries are exempt from U.S. federal income tax at 4% on U.S. source shipping income,
as each vessel-operating subsidiary is organized in a foreign country that grants an equivalent exemption to corporations organized in the United States and the Companys stock is primarily and regularly traded on an established securities
market in the United States, as defined by the Internal Revenue Code of the United States. Under the regulations, a Companys stock will be considered to be regularly traded on an established securities market if (i) one or more classes of
its stock representing 50% or more of its outstanding shares, by voting power and value, is listed on the market and is traded on the market, other than in minimal quantities, on at least 60 days during the taxable year; and (ii) the aggregate
number of shares of stock traded during the taxable year is at least 10% of the average number of shares of the stock outstanding during the taxable year.

|14. | Commitments and Contingencies
|--- | -----------------------------

As at
December 31, 2006, the Company had under construction two 1A ice-class handysize product carriers, two 1B ice-class handysize product carriers, two panamaxes, six aframaxes, two 1A ice-class suezmaxes and one LNG carrier. The total contracted
amount for the fifteen vessels under construction, plus the extra costs agreed as at December 31, 2006 was $890,827. Remaining scheduled payments as of December 31, 2006 are $460,556 in 2007, $94,240 in 2008 and $95,040 in 2009. In
addition, in August 2006 a contract was signed with a shipyard to convert the single hull aframax Vergina IIto a double hull vessel. Work commenced in late 2006 and is expected to be completed within April 2007. The total estimated cost of
the contracted work is $9,400 of which $625 had been paid as at December 31, 2006.

In the ordinary course of the shipping business
various claims and losses may arise from disputes with charterers, agents and other suppliers relating to the operations of the Companys vessels. Management believes that all such matters are either adequately covered by insurance or are not
expected to have a material adverse effect on the Companys results from operations or financial condition.



|15. | Financial Instruments
|--- | ---------------------



| | (a) | Interest rate risk: The Companys interest rates and loan repayment terms are described in Notes 6 and 9.
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (b) | Bunker price risk: On November 17, 2006, the Company entered into a swap arrangement whereby it pays to the counterparty a fixed price of $267 dollars per metric
ton (MT) for a notional 1,000 MT of Fuel Oil for each of the months January, February and March 2007 and receives from the counterparty a floating price dependent on a monthly arithmetical average of daily market prices provided by Platts, a leading
provider of energy information. As at December 31, 2006, the value of this contract was $36 net payable to the counterparty.
| | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (c) | Concentration of credit risk: Financial Instruments consist principally of cash, trade accounts receivable, investments and derivatives. The Company places its
temporary cash investments, consisting mostly of deposits, with high credit qualified financial institutions. Credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable is mitigated due to the high quality of entities comprising the Companys
charterer base. The Company limits the exposure of non-performance by counterparties to derivative instruments by diversifying among counterparties with high credit ratings.
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (d) | Fair value: The carrying amounts reflected in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet of financial assets and accounts payable approximate their respective
fair values due to the short maturity of these instruments. The fair values of long-term bank loans approximate the recorded values, generally due to their variable interest rates. The fair value of investments discussed in Note 3 equates to the
amounts that would be received by the Company in the event of sale of those investments. The fair value of the interest rate swap agreements discussed in Note 9 and the bunker price swap described above equates to the amounts that would be paid by
or received by the Company to cancel the swaps.
