Shareholders Additional Purchased Shares, and any additional shares of Common
Stock issued as a result of a stock dividend or stock split with respect to the

Stock acquired either upon the exercise of warrants originally issued immediately
prior to the Company’s initial public stock offering or any Common Stock purchased
in the open market other than the Open Market/Block Purchase Shares and the Inside
Shareholders Additional Purchased Shares.



     2. The first sentence of Section 7 of the Voting Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced with
the following:




This Agreement (other than the obligations of the Company and the Buyer under
Section 9 hereof, which shall survive any termination hereof) shall terminate with
respect to (a) any of the Inside Shareholders Additional Purchased Shares on the
earlier of (i) the sale of any of such Inside Shareholders Additional Purchased
Shares to one or more third parties not affiliated with an Investor or the Inside
Shareholder, as the case may be; and (ii) two (2) years after the date of the
Voting Agreement; and (b) all Shares other than the Inside Shareholders Additional
Purchased Shares, two (2) years after the date of the Voting Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement shall terminate immediately with
respect to the Inside Shareholders Additional Purchased Shares if (A) the special
meeting of shareholders of the Company currently scheduled for August 26, 2008
does not occur by such date; (B) the “vessel acquisition proposal” as described in
the Proxy Statement mailed to the shareholders of the Company on our about July
30, 2008 is not approved by the shareholders of the Company; or (C) holders of
more than 35% of the Company’s Common Stock issued in its initial public offering
exercise their redemption rights in accordance with the Company’s Second Amended
and Restated Articles of Incorporation.



MISCELLANEOUS




     1. The parties hereto acknowledge and confirm that other than as amended herein, the Voting
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall continue to evidence, guarantee and
support their respective obligations.



2









 





     2. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that any breach of any provision herein or failure
by any party hereto to comply with and perform any of the agreements contained herein shall
constitute a breach under the Voting Agreement.



     3. This Amendment may be executed by the parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of
which, when so executed and delivered, shall be an original, but all such counterparts shall
together constitute one and the same instrument. All such counterparts may be delivered among the
parties hereto by facsimile or other electronic transmission, which shall not affect the validity
thereof.



     4. This Amendment shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of
the State of New York (without reference to the conflicts of law provisions thereof). Any dispute
regarding this Amendment shall be exclusively referred to arbitration in London and conducted in
accordance with Arbitration Act 1996 (England and Wales) or any statutory modification or
re-enactment thereof, and the parties agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction
and venue of such arbitrators. Any and all disputes hereunder shall be referred by the parties
hereto to three arbitrators, each party to appoint one arbitrator and the two so appointed shall
appoint the third who shall and as chairman of such panel of arbitrators. Upon receipt by one
party of the nomination in writing of such other party’s arbitrator, that party shall appoint its
arbitrator within ten days, failing which the decision of the single arbitrator appointed shall
apply. The two arbitrators so appointed shall appoint the third arbitrator within ten days, failing
which the single arbitrator shall act as sole arbitrator and any decision of the sole arbitrator
shall be binding on both parties. The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the terms
of the London Maritime Arbitrators Association (“LMAA”) then in effect. The parties agree that any
tribunal constituted under this Amendment shall have the power to order consolidation of
proceedings or concurrent hearings in relation to any and all disputes arising out of or in
connection with this Amendment or the other Transaction Documents, which involve common questions
of fact or law, and to make any orders ancillary to the same, including, without limitation, any
orders relating to the procedures to be followed by the parties in any such consolidated
proceedings or concurrent hearings. Consolidated disputes are to be heard by a maximum of three
arbitrators, each party to have the right to appoint one arbitrator. In case a dispute arises as to
whether consolidation is appropriate (including without limitation conflicting orders of relevant
tribunals) and/or as to the constitution of the tribunal for any such consolidated proceedings,
each party shall have the right to apply to the President for the time being of the LMAA for final
determination of the consolidation of the proceedings and/or constitution of such tribunal. For
purposes of this Amendment, the Company, shall be deemed to be one party, the Investors shall be
deemed to be one party, and the Inside Shareholder shall be deemed to be one party.



     5. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings specified in the
Master Agreement.
