			D.           The Shipowner desires to participate in MARAD’s Federal Ship Financing Program as established by Chapter 537;
		

		
			 
		

		
			E.           In furtherance thereof, the Shipowner submitted an application on the Application Date to the Administrator for the Guarantee of the obligations under the Note for Financing pursuant to Chapter 537 to finance a portion of the cost of constructing, reconstructing or reconditioning the Vessel, which application was previously deemed complete by the Administrator;
		

		
			 
		

		
			F.            The Shipowner is the sole owner of the Vessel constructed pursuant to the Construction Contract with the Shipyard;
		

		
			 
		

		
			G.           After review of such application, the Administrator determined that:
		

		
			 
		

		
			(1)          pursuant to Section 53707(a) of Chapter 537, the Shipowner is responsible and possesses the ability, experience, financial resources and other qualifications necessary to the adequate operation and maintenance of the Vessel;

			(4)          pursuant to 46 C.F.R. § 298.33(b)(2)(iii), the Shipowner has demonstrated its ability to pay the Required Equity Amount; and
		

		
			 
		

		
			(5)          pursuant to Section 53708(a) of Chapter 537, the proposed use of the Vessel by the Shipowner will be economically sound;

			2.            Other Interpretive Provisions.  With reference to this Agreement and each other Transaction Document, unless otherwise specified herein or in such other Transaction Document:
		

		
			 
		

		
			(a)      Construction. The definitions of terms herein shall apply equally to the singular and plural forms of the terms defined.  Whenever the context may require, any pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms.  The words “include,” “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation.”  The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall.”  Unless the context requires otherwise, (1) any definition of or reference to any agreement, instrument or other document (including any Organizational Document) shall be construed as referring to such agreement, instrument or other document as from time to time amended, supplemented or otherwise modified (subject to any restrictions on such amendments, supplements or modifications set forth herein or in any other Transaction Document), (2) any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s successors and assigns, (3) the words “herein,” “hereof” and “hereunder,” and words of similar import when used in any Transaction Document, shall be construed to refer to such Transaction Document in its entirety and not to any particular provision thereof, (4) all references in a Transaction Document to Articles, Sections, Annexes, Appendices and Schedules shall be construed to refer to Articles and Sections of, and Annexes, Appendices and Schedules to, the Transaction Document in which such references appear, (5) any reference to any law shall include all statutory and regulatory provisions consolidating, amending, replacing or interpreting such law and any reference to any law or regulation shall, unless otherwise specified, refer to such law or regulation as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, and (6) the words “asset” and “property” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect and to refer to any and all tangible and intangible assets and properties, including cash, securities, accounts and contract rights.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(b)      Computation Periods.  In the computation of periods of time from a specified date to a later specified date, the word “from” means “from but not including;” the words “to” and “until” each mean “to and including;” and the word “through” means “to and including.”
		

		
			 
		

		
			(c)    Section Headings. Section headings herein and in the other Transaction Documents are included for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(d)          Accounting Terms.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(1)          Generally.  All accounting terms not specifically or completely defined herein shall be construed in conformity with, and all financial data (including financial ratios and other financial calculations) required to be submitted pursuant to this Agreement shall be prepared in conformity with GAAP, as in effect from time to time, applied in a manner consistent with that used in preparing the Audited Financial Statements, except as otherwise specifically prescribed herein or in relevant federal regulations.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(2)          Changes in GAAP.  If at any time any change in GAAP would affect the computation of any financial covenant or requirement set forth in any Transaction Document, and the Shipowner shall so request, the Administrator and the Shipowner shall negotiate in good faith

			to amend such covenant or requirement to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP; provided that, until so amended, (A) such covenant or requirement shall continue to be computed in accordance with GAAP prior to such change therein and (B) the Shipowner shall provide to the Administrator financial statements and other documents required under this Agreement or as reasonably requested hereunder setting forth a reconciliation between calculations of such ratio or requirement made before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(3)          Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities.  All references herein to consolidated and consolidating financial statements of the Shipowner and the Affiliate Guarantor or to the determination of any amount for the Shipowner and the Affiliate Guarantor on a consolidated basis or any similar reference shall, in each case, be deemed to include each variable interest entity that the Shipowner and the Affiliate Guarantor are required to consolidate pursuant to Topic 810 of the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) maintained by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) as if such variable interest entity were an Affiliate.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(e)          Uniform Commercial Code Terms.
		

		
			 
		

		
			All other capitalized terms contained in this Agreement and not otherwise defined herein have, when the context so indicates, the meanings provided for by the UCC to the extent the same are used or defined therein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the following terms have the meaning ascribed to them in the UCC: Equipment, Inventory, Accounts, Chattel Paper, General Intangibles, Goods, Documents, Instruments, Letter of Credit, Letter of Credit Rights, Investment Property, Commercial Tort Claims, Deposit Accounts and, Accessions. Subject to the foregoing, the term "UCC" refers, as of any date of determination, to the UCC then in effect.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(f)           Rounding.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Except as may otherwise be noted in the calculation of any financial ratios, any financial ratios required to be maintained by the Shipowner or the Affiliate Guarantor pursuant to this Agreement shall be calculated by dividing the appropriate component by the other component, carrying the result to one place more than the number of places by which such ratio is expressed herein and rounding the result up or down to the nearest tenth of the number (with a rounding-up if there is no nearest tenth of the number).

			(c)          The Shipowner irrevocably authorizes the Administrator or its appointee (with full power of substitution) to appear in the name of the Shipowner in any court of any country or nation of the world where a suit is pending against the whole or any part of the Collateral because of, or on account of, any alleged Lien or claim against the whole or any part of the Collateral, from which the whole or said part of the Collateral has not been released. The Administrator shall not be obligated to (nor be liable for the failure to) take any action provided for in Subsections (a) and (b) of this Section.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator shall not be obligated to (and shall not be liable for the failure to) perform such acts and make such expenditures, including, but not limited to, the hiring of accounting professionals to review the books and records of the Shipowner to the satisfaction of the Administrator, and the Shipowner hereby agrees to disclose all and any pertinent information determined to be necessary for the conduct of such a review by the Administrator or its consultants.  All funds advanced and expenses and damages incurred by the Administrator relating to such compliance shall constitute a debt due from the Shipowner to the Administrator and shall be secured hereunder and under the Mortgage prior to the Administrator's Note and shall be repaid by the Shipowner upon demand, together with interest at the Expended Funds Rate plus two percent (2%).

On or prior to the Closing Date, the Administrator shall establish the Interest Escrow Fund with Treasury and the Shipowner shall deposit into the Interest Escrow Fund an amount equal to the Interest Escrow Fund Deposit, which shall be an amount equal to six (6) months’ interest on the Note assuming the Maximum Principal Amount of the Note has been advanced on the Closing Date, unless such requirement is waived by the Administrator as set forth on Annex A of this Agreement.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 5.02. Disbursements from the Interest Escrow Fund.

			(b)          If, at any time of determination, the total amount on deposit in the Interest Escrow Fund exceeds the calculation of interest due on the Note for the successive six (6) month period assuming the full advance of the Note on the date of determination at the rate established and as determined by the Administrator, unless there is an existing Default, then, upon receipt of the Shipowner’s Request, the Administrator shall cause Treasury to disburse to the Administrator for disbursement to the Shipowner such excess from the Interest Escrow Fund.

			SECTION 6.01.  Establishment of Chapter 537 Reserve Fund.  On the Closing Date, the Administrator shall establish the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund. In the event that the Shipowner shall, at any time and from time to time, receive any Moneys Due with Respect to the Construction of the Vessels, the Shipowner shall give notice thereof to the Administrator and shall promptly pay the same over to the Administrator who shall deposit the funds into the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund for application in accordance with Section 14.04 of this Agreement. When and if the Shipowner or other Person is required by Sections 6.04 and 13.07 of this Agreement to make a Reserve Fund Net Income Deposit into the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund, the Shipowner or other Person shall pay those funds to the Administrator who shall deposit the funds into the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 6.02.  Computation of Reserve Fund Net Income.  Within one hundred five (105) days after the end of each fiscal year of the Shipowner, the Shipowner shall compute its net income attributable to the operation of the Vessels for such year in accordance with this Section ("Reserve Fund Net Income").  This computation requires the multiplication of the Shipowner’s total net income after taxes by a fraction with a numerator composed of the total original capitalized cost of all Vessels and a denominator composed of the total original capitalized cost of all the Shipowner's fixed assets.  The total net income after taxes, computed in accordance with GAAP, shall be adjusted as follows:
		

		
			 
		

		
			(a)          The depreciation expense applicable to the fiscal year shall be added back; and
		

		
			 
		

		
			(b)          There shall be subtracted (1) an amount equal to the principal amount of debt required to be paid or redeemed, and actually paid or redeemed by the Shipowner during the year, excluding payments from the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund; and (2) the principal amount of Advances Paid, in excess of the required  prepayments which may be used by the Shipowner as a credit against future required prepayments with respect to Advances including the Late Charges Reserve Subfund and the Interest Escrow Fund.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 6.03.  Delivery of Statement of Reserve Fund Net Income.

The computation of the Reserve Fund Net Income Deposit shall be made on the basis of information available to the Shipowner at the time of each such deposit.  Each Reserve Fund Net Income

			Deposit shall be subject to adjustments from time to time in the event and to the extent that the same would be required or permitted by mistakes or omissions, additional information becoming available to the Shipowner, or judicial or administrative determinations made subsequent to the making of such deposits.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 6.04.  Annual Reserve Fund Net Income Deposit. Within one hundred fifteen (115) days after the end of each fiscal year of the Shipowner, the Shipowner shall transmit to the Administrator for the Administrator’s prompt deposit into the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund an amount equal to (a) (1) the Reserve Fund Net Income for such fiscal year less (2) ten percent (10%) of the Shipowner's Aggregate Original Equity Investment in each Vessel then owned by the Shipowner, as specified in Annex A of this Agreement, deducted annually for each such Vessel (prorated for a period of less than a full fiscal year) multiplied by (b) fifty percent (50%) of the balance of the Reserve Fund Net Income remaining after the above deductions of Clause (a) above (“Reserve Fund Net Income Deposit”). The Shipowner shall deliver to the Administrator at the time of each Reserve Fund Net Income Deposit pursuant to this Section and any deposits required under this Agreement, a statement of the Shipowner’s Accountant stating that such deposit has been computed in accordance with Section 6.02 hereof and showing the pertinent calculations.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 6.05.  Exceptions to Annual Reserve Net Income Deposit.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the Shipowner shall not be required to make any Reserve Fund Net Income Deposit if (a) the Note and the related Administrator's Note with respect to the Vessels shall have been satisfied and discharged and if the Shipowner shall have paid or caused to be paid all other sums secured under this Agreement or the Mortgage, (b) the Guarantee of the Note shall have been terminated pursuant to this Agreement other than by reason of payment of the Guarantee by the Administrator, (c) the Shipowner was, at the close of its fiscal year, subject to and in compliance with all of the Qualifying Financial Covenants of Shipowner and there is no existing Default or (d) the amount in the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund (including any securities at current market value) is equal to or in excess of fifty percent (50%) of the Outstanding Advances and there is no existing Default.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 6.06.  Shipyard Net Cash Flow Deposit. In the case of a Shipyard Project, (a) within one hundred five (105) days after the end of its fiscal year, the Shipyard shall submit its Audited Financial Statements for such year showing its net cash flow in a manner acceptable to the Administrator, in lieu of any other computation of Reserve Fund Net Income specified in Section 6.02 for Vessels, and (b) except as provided in 46 CFR § 298.35(d), the Shipyard shall make a deposit into the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund of two percent of its net cash flow, as defined by GAAP, and as shown on its most recent Audited Financial Statements in lieu of the Annual Reserve Fund Net Income Deposit specified in Section 6.04.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 6.07.  Withdrawals from Chapter 537 Reserve Fund.

If the Administrator approves the Request, the Administrator shall promptly withdraw the moneys from the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund and make payment in accordance with the terms of the Request.  The Administrator shall have the right to disapprove any Request for withdrawal from the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund and,

			in the event of a Default under this Agreement, the right to apply all or part of the proceeds in the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund to all amounts due and owing the Administrator under this Agreement.  In that event, the Administrator may retain and offset any or all of the cash in the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund, and any Income Realized on the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund, as part of the Administrator’s recovery against the Shipowner.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 6.08.  Impermissible Payments. If the Shipowner makes any payment in violation of the Primary Covenants or the Supplemental Covenants, if applicable, and each Equity Interest Holder that has received such a payment fails to repay such amounts within fifteen (15) days of receipt of notice from the Administrator to the Shipowner requesting such repayment (or if the Shipowner shall have failed to make a timely Reserve Fund Net Income Deposit in violation of Section 6.04 of this Agreement), the Shipowner shall, upon Request from the Administrator, pay into the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund, the amount remaining due from such Equity Interest Holders plus interest at the Expended Funds Rate plus two percent (2%) from the date the monies were initially paid (or from the date the Reserve Fund Net Income Deposit should have been made).  It is understood and agreed that any payment made by the Shipowner pursuant to this Section 6.08 shall not release or extinguish the obligation of the Equity Interest Holders to repay improperly received funds; provided that such funds repaid by the Equity Interest Holders shall not be paid into the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund to the extent the Shipowner has already made payments into the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund pursuant to this Section 6.08.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 6.09.  Late Charges Reserve Subfund and Deficiency Deposits.   On the Closing Date, the Administrator shall establish the Late Charges Reserve Subfund as a subfund of the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund with Treasury and the Shipowner shall deposit the Late Charges Reserve Subfund Deposit with the Administrator who shall deposit such proceeds into the Late Charges Reserve Subfund. The Administrator shall have the sole right to make withdrawals from the Late Charges Reserve Subfund. The Late Charges Reserve Subfund shall be held and disbursed by the Administrator to pay any Late Charges. Provided no Default has occurred, the Administrator shall release to the Holder entitled to receive any Late Charges sufficient funds from the Late Charges Reserve Subfund to cover such Late Charges as and when the same become due and payable.  At any time and from time to time that the amount in the Late Charges Reserve Subfund shall be less than the greater of (a) the Late Charges Reserve Subfund Deposit or (b) an amount determined by the Administrator to be sufficient to cover thirty (30) days of hypothetical Late Charges based upon a daily rate selected by the Administrator, then, upon notice of such deficiency by the Administrator to the Shipowner, the Shipowner shall immediately make any additional deposit of cash into the Late Charges Reserve Subfund.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 6.10.  Capital Construction Fund in Lieu of Chapter 537 Reserve Fund.   If the Shipowner has established a Capital Construction Fund, at any time when a Reserve Fund Net Income Deposit would otherwise be required to be made into the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund pursuant to this Article VI, and the Shipowner elects to make such deposits to the Capital Construction Fund, the Shipowner must enter into an agreement, satisfactory to the Administrator, providing that all such deposits of assets therein will be security (the “CCF Security Amount”) to the United States in lieu of the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund. The Reserve Fund Net Income Deposit requirements of the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund and of this Agreement will be deemed satisfied by deposits of equal amounts in the Capital Construction Fund, and withdrawal of the CCF Security Amount will be subject to the Administrator’s prior consent. If, for any reason, the Capital Construction Fund terminates prior to the payment of the Note, the Administrator's Note and all

			SECTION 6.11.  Termination of the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(a)          Upon the occurrence of (1) a Default, and (2) (A) the assumption of the Shipowner’s rights and duties under the Note and the Note Purchase Documents or (B) the payment by the Administrator to the Holder pursuant to a demand under the Guarantee, the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund (including the Late Payment Reserve Subfund) shall be terminated and all amounts in the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund (including Income Realized on the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund which has not yet been paid to the Shipowner), shall be applied in accordance with the terms of Section 14.04 of this Agreement. The Administrator’s rights to draw upon the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund shall not be exclusive of any other rights of the Administrator under the Transaction Documents, and each and every right shall be cumulative and concurrent, and may be enforced separately, successively or together, and may be exercised from time to time as often as the Administrator may deem necessary.
		

		
			 
		

		
			 (b)  The Chapter 537 Reserve Fund (including the Late Payment Reserve Subfund) shall terminate at such time as the Administrator's Note shall have been satisfied and discharged and the Shipowner shall have paid or caused to be paid all sums secured under this Agreement and the Mortgage. Upon such termination of the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund, the moneys remaining in the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund shall be subject to withdrawal and payment into the general funds of the Shipowner.
		

		
			 
		

		
			ARTICLE VII
		

		
			General Provisions Relating to the Deposit Funds and Administrator as Paying Agent
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 7.01. Administrator’s Security Interest and Other Rights in Deposit Funds. The Deposit Funds and all Financial Assets held by the Administrator at Treasury in the Deposit Funds, at whatever time, pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, whether cash or securities, or proceeds thereof or otherwise, shall constitute and be held in the Deposit Funds solely and exclusively for the benefit of the Administrator as security for the payment and performance of any and all of the Administrator’s Notes and the undertakings of the Shipowner and Affiliate Guarantor in this Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Transaction Documents. In addition to the rights set forth in this Agreement, the Administrator shall have all rights and remedies set forth in any of the Transaction Documents or otherwise as permitted by applicable law pertaining to the Deposit Funds.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 7.02.  Deposit Funds Not Trust Funds. The Deposit Funds shall not constitute trust funds.  The Deposit Funds shall constitute collateral security for all of the obligations and liabilities of the Shipowner under this Agreement, the Administrator's Note and as collateral security for and with respect to the Guarantee. The obligation of the Shipowner to deliver the Deposit Funds to the Administrator is separate from and in addition to all other obligations to pay or deliver funds (whether principal, interest, fees, expenses, deposits, escrows, reserves or otherwise) to the Administrator under the Transaction Documents.  Nothing contained in this Article VII shall in any manner whatsoever alter, impair or affect the obligations of the Shipowner, or relieve the Shipowner of any of its obligations to make payments and perform all of its other obligations required under the Transaction Documents. Any withdrawal from the Deposit Funds

			pursuant to this Agreement shall not effect a discharge of or diminish any obligations of the Shipowner under this Agreement, the Mortgage or any other agreement as the case may be except to the extent that the amount withdrawn is applied to payments required to be made by the Shipowner under this Agreement, the Mortgage or any other agreement.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 7.03.  Contents of Deposit Funds.   The parties hereto hereby agree that only cash may be deposited into a Deposit Fund and that such cash and all other assets in a Deposit Fund shall be treated as a Financial Asset.  Any cash held in the Deposit Funds pursuant to any of the provisions of this Agreement (a) shall not be segregated at Treasury, but shall be separately accounted for on the Administrator’s books and records, and (b) shall bear interest and be invested to the extent provided in Section 7.04 below.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 7.04. Investment and Liquidation of the Deposit Funds.  Provided that the Shipowner is not in Default, (a) the Administrator may invest and reinvest any cash held in the Deposit Funds in Eligible Investments with such maturities as to ensure that the Deposit Funds will be available as required for the purposes hereof; and (b) the Administrator shall comply with a Shipowner’s Request to sell all or any designated part of the Eligible Investments in the Deposit Funds. The Administrator shall have no liability to the Shipowner for acting in accordance with such Request.  If such sale (or any payment at maturity) produces (a) a net sum less than the cost (including accrued interest paid, as such) of the Eligible Investments so sold or paid, the Administrator shall give notice to the Shipowner, and the Shipowner shall promptly pay the deficiency to the Administrator for deposit into the applicable Deposit Fund, or (b) a net sum greater than the cost (including accrued interest paid as such) of the Eligible Investments so sold or paid, the Administrator shall promptly pay the excess to the Shipowner. The Shipowner expressly acknowledges and agrees that cash deposited in the Deposit Funds pursuant to this Agreement may suffer a loss if liquidated prior to the maturity of the Eligible Investment.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 7.05.  Disbursements Out of Available Cash. The Administrator shall not be required to make any disbursement from the Deposit Funds except out of the cash available therein. If sufficient cash is not available to make the requested disbursement, additional cash shall be provided by the maturity or sale of securities in accordance with instructions pursuant to Section 7.04 hereof. If any sale or payment on maturity shall result in a loss in the principal amount of any Deposit Fund invested in securities so sold or matured, the requested disbursement from such Deposit Fund shall be reduced by an amount equal to such loss, and the Shipowner shall, no later than the time for such disbursement, pay to the Holder, the Shipyard, or any other Person entitled thereto, the balance of the requested disbursement from the Shipowner’s funds.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 7.06. Interest, Financial Assets and Taxes. So long as the Shipowner is not in Default, the Administrator may pay the Shipowner any interest paid on cash or Eligible Investments (less an amount equal to accrued interest paid upon purchase) when credited in the Deposit Fund.  Any and all securities or other Financial Assets credited to a Deposit Fund shall be registered in the name of the Administrator, endorsed to the Administrator and in no case will any Financial Asset credited to any Deposit Fund be registered in the name of the Shipowner, be payable to the order of the Shipowner or specially endorsed to the Shipowner.  All taxes, if any, applicable to the acquisition or sale of Eligible Investments under this Section shall be paid by the Shipowner from its separate funds.

			SECTION 7.07. Improper Disbursements From Deposit Funds. At any time the Administrator shall have determined that there has been, for any reason, a disbursement from any Deposit Fund contrary to this Section, the Administrator shall give notice to the Shipowner of the amount improperly disbursed, the amount to be deposited or re-deposited into such Deposit Fund on account thereof, and the reasons for such determination.  The Shipowner shall thereafter promptly deposit or re-deposit, as appropriate, such amount (with interest, if any) required by the Administrator into such Deposit Fund.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 7.08.  Administrator as Paying Agent. So long as FFB is the Holder of the Note, to the extent required by the Note, the following shall apply:
		

		
			 
		

		
			(a)          Cash received by the Administrator as a payment of amounts due with respect to Advances under the Note shall be timely paid to FFB and all other cash shall be held by the Administrator in Treasury as a special deposit for application in accordance with this Article VII and Section 14.04 of this Agreement.  Cash held by the Administrator in Treasury as a payment of amounts due with respect to Advances under the Note (1) need not be segregated; (2) shall not be invested; and (3) shall not bear interest except to the extent the Administrator allows.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(b)          Any moneys received by the Administrator, for the payment of amounts due with respect to Advances under the Note and remaining unclaimed by any Holder for six (6) years after the Stated Maturity Date shall be paid by Treasury to the Shipowner upon receipt of a Request by the Shipowner, approved by the Administrator and sent to Treasury, unless the Administrator has previously paid the Guarantee, in which case it shall not be paid to the Shipowner.  In such event, the Holder shall thereafter be entitled to look only to the Person that received the unclaimed amounts for the payment thereof, and the Administrator shall thereupon be relieved from all responsibility to such Holder.  No such Request or payment shall be construed to extend any statutory period of limitations, which would have been applicable in the absence of such Request or payment.

			(b) Upon the occurrence of a Default, the Administrator shall have the right at its discretion to:

			(1)          Declare the principal of the Administrator's Note, interest accrued thereon, premiums and all other monetary obligations due under the Administrator’s Note, this Agreement, the Mortgage or any of the other Transaction Documents to be immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Shipowner, at any time after a Default has occurred and is continuing under the terms of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents and, thereupon, the principal of and interest on the Administrator's Note shall become immediately due and payable, together with interest at the Approved Interest Rate applicable to each Advance under the Administrator’s Note; provided, however, that if any Default specified in Section 14.01(b)(4) hereof shall occur, the principal of, all interest on, premiums and all other monetary obligations due under the Administrator’s Note, this Agreement, the Mortgage or any of the other Transaction Documents shall thereupon become due and payable concurrently therewith, without any further action by the Administrator, and without presentment, demand, protest, notice of default, notice of acceleration, or of intention to accelerate or other notice of any kind, all of which the Shipowner hereby expressly waives;

IT IS EXPRESSLY UNDERSTOOD AND AGREED TO BY THE SHIPOWNER THAT SURRENDER OF ANY VESSEL UNDER THIS SECTION MUST BE AND WILL BE IMMEDIATE AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE DIRECTIONS OF THE ADMINISTRATOR. FAILURE OF THE SHIPOWNER TO IMMEDIATELY COMPLY WITH THE ADMINISTRATOR’S DEMAND FOR SURRENDER OF ANY VESSEL WILL CAUSE THE POSSESSION OF THE VESSEL BY THE SHIPOWNER (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, POSSESSION AND CONTROL OF THE VESSEL BY A MASTER OR CREW MEMBER ON BOARD THE VESSEL) TO BE UNLAWFUL, THEREBY SUBJECTING THE SHIPOWNER TO ALL FINES, PENALTIES AND ACTIONS WHICH THE ADMINISTRATOR DEEMS APPLICABLE AND APPROPRIATE. SHOULD THE SHIPOWNER CONTINUE TO OPERATE, POSSESS OR CONTROL THE VESSEL CONTRARY TO THE ADMINISTRATOR’S DIRECTIONS AND THE PROVISIONS HEREIN, THEN THE ADMINISTRATOR SHALL, IN ADDITION TO ANY OTHER RIGHTS AND REMEDIES AT LAW AND IN EQUITY, BE ENTITLED TO A TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER AND/OR ORDER FOR INJUNCTIVE RELIEF NECESSARY TO GAIN COMPLIANCE HEREWITH. IN ADDITION TO EXPRESSLY CONSENTING THAT THE INJURY AND DAMAGE RESULTING FROM BREACH HEREOF WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE TO MEASURE MONETARILY, SHIPOWNER EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY DEFENSE BASED UPON AN ALLEGED EXISTENCE OF AN ADEQUATE REMEDY AT LAW;

			(3)          Exercise all the rights and remedies in foreclosure and otherwise given to mortgagees by Chapter 313;
		

		
			 
		

		
			(4)          Bring suit at law, in equity or in admiralty to recover judgment for any and all amounts due or to enforce any rights under the Administrator's Note, this Agreement, the Mortgage, and the other Transaction Documents to collect the same out of any and all property  of the Shipowner and/or the Affiliate Guarantor, whether or not the same is subject to the Lien of the Mortgage or this Agreement, and in connection therewith, obtain a decree ordering the sale of any Vessel in accordance with Subsection (b)(6) of this Section;
		

		
			 
		

		
			(5)          Have a receiver of the Vessels appointed as a matter of right in any suit under this Section (and any such receiver may have the rights of the Administrator under Subsection (b)(6) of this Section) and any receiver so appointed shall have full right and power to use and operate the Vessels;
		

		
			 
		

		
			(6)          Sell any Vessel, free from any claim of the Shipowner, in addition to any and all other rights, powers, and remedies elsewhere in this Agreement or by law granted to and conferred upon the Administrator, upon such terms and conditions as it may deem to be for its best advantage, including the right to sell and dispose of any Vessel free from any claim of or by the Shipowner, at public sale, by sealed bids or otherwise, after twice publishing notice of the time and place of such sale prior to the proposed sale in the Authorized Newspaper, and by mailing notice of such sale to the Shipowner at its last known address; such publication and mailing is to be made at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date fixed for such sale; such sale may be held at such place and at such time as the Administrator in such notice may have specified, or may be adjourned by the Administrator from time to time by announcement at the time and place appointed for such sale or for such adjourned sale, and without further notice of publication and the Administrator may make any such sale at the time and place to which the same shall be so adjourned; and any such sale may be conducted without bringing any Vessel to the place designated for such sale and in such manner as the Administrator may deem to be for its best advantage, and the Administrator may become the purchaser at any such sale, and shall have the right to credit on the purchase price any or all sums of money due to the Administrator under the Administrator’s Note, this Agreement, the Mortgage, the other Transaction Documents or otherwise hereunder. THE SHIPOWNER EXPRESSLY AGREES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT SALE OF THE VESSEL PURSUANT TO THIS SECTION WILL NOT IMPAIR OR LIMIT THE ADMINISTRATOR’S LEGAL RIGHT TO COLLECT FROM THE SHIPOWNER ANY DEFICIENCY REMAINING AFTER THE SALE. IF ANY APPLICABLE LEGAL AUTHORITIES MAY BE CONSTRUED TO LIMIT THE ADMINISTRATOR’S RIGHTS TO COLLECTION OF SAID DEFICIENCY FROM THE SHIPOWNER, THEN SHIPOWNER HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES, RELINQUISHES AND FOREVER GIVES UP THE RIGHT TO AVAIL ITSELF OF SUCH LEGAL AUTHORITIES;
		

		
			 
		

		
			(7)          Accept a conveyance of title to, and to take without legal process (and the Shipowner or other Person in possession shall forthwith surrender possession to the Administrator), the whole or any part of any Vessel and the Collateral wherever the same may be, and to take possession of and to hold the same;

			(9)          Receive, in the event of an actual or constructive total loss, or an agreed or compromised total loss, or a requisition of title to or use of any Vessel, all insurance or other payments therefor to which the Shipowner would otherwise be entitled, such insurance moneys to be applied by the Administrator in accordance with Section 14.04 hereof; and
		

		
			 
		

		
			(10)        Pursue to final collection of all the claims arising under this Agreement and to collect such claims from, the Collateral.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(c)          The Shipowner hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrator the true and lawful attorney of the Shipowner, in its name and stead, to make all necessary transfers of the whole or any part of the Collateral in connection with a sale, use or other disposition pursuant to Section 14.02(b) hereof, and for that purpose to execute all necessary instruments of assignment and transfer, the Shipowner hereby ratifying and confirming all that its said attorney shall lawfully do by virtue hereof. Nevertheless, the Shipowner shall, if so requested by the Administrator, ratify and confirm such sale by executing and delivering to any purchaser of the whole or any part of the Collateral, such proper bill of sale, conveyance, instrument of transfer, or release as may be designated in such request.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(d)          The Shipowner hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrator the true and lawful attorney of the Shipowner so long as a Default shall have occurred and shall not have been waived by the Administrator, in the name of the Shipowner, to demand, collect, receive, compromise and sue for, so far as may be permitted by law, all hires, earnings, issues, revenues, income, and profits of the Vessels and all amounts due from underwriters under any insurance thereon as payment of losses or as return premiums or otherwise, salvage awards and recoveries, recoveries in general average or otherwise, any right of action against the designer, builder, surveyor, or other material party for any fault, negligence or deficiency in design, construction or survey of the Vessels and all other sums, due or to become due, at or after the time of the happening of any Default in respect of the Vessels or in respect of any insurance thereon from any person whomsoever, and to make, give and execute in the name of the Shipowner, acquittances, receipts, releases or other discharges for the same, whether under seal or otherwise, and to endorse and accept in the name of the Shipowner all checks, notes, drafts, warrants, agreements, and all other instruments in writing with respect to the foregoing.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(e)          No remedy shall be exclusive of any other remedy, and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedy.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(f)           No delay or omission to exercise any right or remedy shall impair any such right or remedy or shall be deemed to be a waiver of any Default.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(g)          The exercise of any right or remedy shall not constitute an election of remedies by the Administrator.

			(b)          If the Administrator shall not have assumed the Shipowner's rights and duties under the Note Purchase Agreement and the Note and made any payments in default under Chapter 537, and if the Administrator shall have determined prior to payment of the Guarantee that a Payment Default has been remedied within thirty (30) days after the occurrence of such event, but prior to the date of demand by the Holder for payment under the Guarantee, upon a Request by the Shipowner, the Administrator shall waive such Default.

			FORM OF ADMINISTRATOR’S NOTE
		

		
			 
		

		
			PROMISSORY NOTE TO UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
		

		
			(“Administrator’s Note”)
		

		
			 
		

		
			Matson Navigation Company, Inc., a Hawaii corporation (the “Shipowner”), for value received, promises to pay THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA (the “United States”), represented by the Maritime Administrator of the Maritime Administration (the “Administrator”), at the office of the Maritime Administration, U.S. Department of Transportation, Washington, D.C., in lawful money of the United States of America, the aggregate principal amount of up to $185,943,000, together with interest thereon until such principal sum has been paid, as and to the extent that after a Default has occurred and is continuing the Administrator makes payments under the Guarantee or expressly assumes the Shipowner’s right and duties under the Note.  This Administrator's Note (“Administrator’s Note”) is subject to mandatory prepayment on the same terms and conditions as the Note referred to below.  Capitalized terms used herein have the meaning defined herein or in the Consolidated Agreement, Contract No. MA-14454, dated April 27, 2020, between the Shipowner and the Administrator (the “Agreement”).
		

		
			 
		

		
			This Administrator’s Note is given (1) in consideration of the Administrator’s issuance, pursuant to the provisions of 46 U.S.C. Chapter 537 of a Guarantee (the “Guarantee”) of payment of the unpaid interest on and the unpaid balance of the principal amount of the Future Advance Promissory Note (FFB Note Identifier MATNAV 0001, Maximum Principal Amount $185,943,000), dated April 27, 2020 (the “Note”), issued by the Shipowner to the Federal Financing Bank, a body corporate and instrumentality of the United States (“FFB”), pursuant to a Note Purchase Agreement, by and among FFB, the Shipowner and the Administrator, in order to finance a portion of the cost of construction of the Vessel, and (2) to evidence the Shipowner’s obligation to pay the Administrator, after a Default has occurred and is continuing, any amount that the Administrator (i) actually pays to the Holder of the Note under said Guarantee or (ii) becomes obligated to pay the Holder after the Administrator expressly assumes the Shipowner’s right and duties under the Note.
		

		
			 
		

		
			This Administrator’s Note is issued pursuant to the provisions of the Agreement.  The Agreement contemplates that on the date hereof, a first preferred fleet mortgage on the Vessel (the “Mortgage”) will be executed and delivered by the Shipowner, as mortgagor, to the Administrator, as mortgagee, covering the Shipowner's interest in such Vessel.  The definitions used in, and the provisions of, the Agreement and the Mortgage are incorporated herein by reference.
		

		
			 
		

		
			This Administrator’s Note has been negotiated and received by the Administrator, is secured by the Agreement and the Mortgage, and is subject to all the terms of the Agreement and the Mortgage, to the same extent as if said documents were set out herein in full.

			If payment on the Note is made with moneys advanced or loaned to the Shipowner by the Administrator, such payment on the Note shall not, as to such amount, constitute payment of principal or interest on this Administrator’s Note and the same shall not in any way be discharged as to such amount.  In the event that the Administrator assumes the Shipowner’s rights and duties under the Note and makes any payments thereunder, such payments shall not, as to such amounts, constitute payment of principal and interest on this Administrator’s Note and the same shall not in any way discharge such amounts until such time as this Administrator’s Note is paid in full or otherwise discharged in an appropriate proceeding in a court of competent jurisdiction as established by the final order of a court of last resort or the final order of an inferior court which is not appealed.

			this Administrator’s Note shall evidence solely the Shipowner’s obligation to pay the Administrator any amount that the Administrator may be required to pay to the Holder of the Note under said Guarantee, (iv) the amounts due and owing by Shipowner under the Note and this Administrator’s Note shall constitute a single indebtedness in a maximum collective principal amount not in excess of the face amount of this Administrator’s Note, (v) the Administrator waives any rights of subrogation, contribution, agreement, or otherwise arising under the Note, it being the intent of the parties that the Administrator’s right to recover from the Shipowner any payments it makes under the Guarantee shall be solely as set forth in this Administrator’s Note (it being acknowledged and agreed that the obligations of the Shipowner under this Administrator’s Note are secured by the Collateral), (vi) the maximum liability of Shipowner and Affiliate Guarantor, collectively, under the Transaction Documents with respect to principal payments on the Note and this Administrator’s Note, collectively, shall in no event be in excess of the face amount of this Administrator’s Note and (vii) in the event of an Administrator Assumption, then the Shipowner shall be automatically and by operation of law discharged from any further liability under the Note.  In the event the Administrator becomes the “Holder” of the Note, the Note shall be deemed amended to become consistent with the terms of this Section 18.17.  Upon any Administrator Assumption or any payment by the Administrator under its Guarantee of the Note, (i) the Administrator shall provide prompt written notice of such assumption and/or payment to the Shipowner and (ii) regardless of when such notice is provided, the Administrator shall upon the written request of the Shipowner confirm payment of any such obligations assumed or paid by the Administrator under the Note.

			(2)          Take the Vessels without legal process wherever the same may be (and the Mortgagor or other Person in possession shall forthwith surrender possession of the Vessels to the Mortgagee upon demand) and hold, layup, lease, charter, operate, or otherwise use the Vessels for such time and upon such terms as the Mortgagee may reasonably deem to be in the Mortgagee’s best interest, accounting only for the net profits, if any, arising from the use of the Vessels, and charging against all receipts from the use of the Vessels, all reasonable charges and expenses relating to such Vessel’s use.  IT IS EXPRESSLY UNDERSTOOD AND AGREED TO BY THE MORTGAGOR THAT SURRENDER OF ANY VESSEL UNDER THIS SECTION MUST BE AND WILL BE IMMEDIATE AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE DIRECTIONS OF THE MORTGAGEE. FAILURE OF THE MORTGAGOR TO IMMEDIATELY COMPLY WITH THE MORTGAGEE’S DEMAND FOR SURRENDER OF ANY VESSEL WILL CAUSE THE POSSESSION OF THE VESSEL BY THE MORTGAGOR (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, POSSESSION AND CONTROL OF THE VESSEL BY A MASTER OR CREW MEMBER ON BOARD THE VESSEL) TO BE UNLAWFUL THEREBY SUBJECTING THE MORTGAGOR TO ALL FINES, PENALTIES AND ACTIONS WHICH THE MORTGAGEE DEEMS APPLICABLE AND APPROPRIATE. SHOULD THE MORTGAGOR CONTINUE TO OPERATE, POSSESS OR CONTROL THE VESSEL CONTRARY TO THE MORTGAGEE’S DIRECTIONS AND THE PROVISIONS HEREIN, THEN THE MORTGAGEE SHALL, IN ADDITION TO ANY OTHER RIGHTS AND REMEDIES AT LAW AND IN EQUITY, BE ENTITLED TO A TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER AND/OR ORDER FOR INJUNCTIVE RELIEF NECESSARY TO GAIN COMPLIANCE HEREWITH. IN ADDITION TO EXPRESSLY CONSENTING THAT THE INJURY AND DAMAGE RESULTING FROM BREACH HEREOF WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE TO MEASURE MONETARILY, MORTGAGOR EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY DEFENSE BASED UPON AN ALLEGED EXISTENCE OF AN ADEQUATE REMEDY AT LAW.
		

		
			(3)          Exercise all the rights and remedies in foreclosure and otherwise given to mortgagees by Chapter 313;
		

		
			(4)          Bring suit at law, in equity or in admiralty to recover judgment for any and all amounts due or to enforce any rights under the this Mortgage, the Administrator’s Note or the other Transaction Documents to collect the same out of any and all property of the Mortgagor and/or the Affiliate Guarantor, whether or not the same is subject to the Lien of this Mortgage or the Agreement, and in connection therewith, obtain a decree ordering the sale of any Vessel in accordance with Subsection (b)(vi) of this Section;
		

		
			(5)          Have a receiver of the Vessels appointed as a matter of right in any suit under this Section (and any such receiver may have the rights of the Mortgagee under Subsection (d) of this Section) and any receiver so appointed shall have full right and power to use and operate the Vessels;
		

		
			(6)          Sell any Vessel, free from any claim of the Mortgagor, in addition to any and all other rights, powers, and remedies elsewhere in this Mortgage or by law granted to and conferred upon the Mortgagee, upon such terms and conditions as it may deem to be for its best advantage, including the right to sell and dispose of any Vessel free from any claim of or by the Mortgagor, at public sale, by sealed bids or otherwise, after twice publishing notice of the time and place of such sale prior to the proposed sale in the

			Authorized Newspaper, and by mailing notice of such sale to the Mortgagor at its last known address; such publication and mailing is to be made at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date fixed for such sale; such sale may be held at such place and at such time as the Mortgagee in such notice may have specified, or may be adjourned by the Mortgagee from time to time by announcement at the time and place appointed for such sale or for such adjourned sale, and without further notice of publication and the Mortgagee may make any such sale at the time and place to which the same shall be so adjourned; and any such sale may be conducted without bringing any Vessel to the place designated for such sale and in such manner as the Mortgagee may deem to be for its best advantage, and the Mortgagee may become the purchaser at any such sale, and shall have the right to credit on the purchase price any or all sums of money due to the Mortgagee under the Administrator’s Note, this Mortgage, the Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or otherwise hereunder. THE MORTGAGOR EXPRESSLY AGREES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT SALE OF ANY VESSEL PURSUANT TO THIS SECTION WILL NOT IMPAIR OR LIMIT THE MORTGAGEE’S LEGAL RIGHT TO COLLECT FROM THE MORTGAGOR ANY DEFICIENCY REMAINING AFTER THE SALE. IF ANY APPLICABLE LEGAL AUTHORITIES MAY BE CONSTRUED TO LIMIT THE MORTGAGEE’S RIGHTS TO COLLECTION OF SAID DEFICIENCY FROM THE MORTGAGOR, THEN MORTGAGOR HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES, RELINQUISHES AND FOREVER GIVES UP THE RIGHT TO AVAIL ITSELF OF SUCH LEGAL AUTHORITIES;
		

		
			(7)          Accept a conveyance of title to, and to take without legal process (and the Mortgagor or other Person in possession shall forthwith surrender possession to the Mortgagee), the whole or any part of any Vessel and the Collateral wherever the same may be, and to take possession of and to hold the same;
		

		
			(8)          In the Mortgagee’s discretion, take any and all action authorized by Sections 53715(c), 53724 and 53725 of Chapter 537 and any and all action provided for, or authorized, or permitted by, or with respect to the Collateral;
		

		
			(9)          Receive, in the event of an actual or constructive total loss, or an agreed or compromised total loss, or a requisition of title to or use of any Vessel, all insurance or other payments therefor to which the Mortgagor would otherwise be entitled, such insurance moneys to be applied by the Mortgagee in accordance with Section 5.04 hereof; and
		

		
			(10)        Pursue to final collection of all the claims arising under this Mortgage, the Agreement or any other Transaction Document and to collect such claims from the Collateral.
		

		
			(c)          The Mortgagor hereby irrevocably appoint the Mortgagee the true and lawful attorney of the Mortgagor, in its name and stead to make all necessary transfers of the whole or any part of the Vessels in connection with a sale, use or other dispositions pursuant to Section 5.02(b) hereof, and for that purpose it shall execute all necessary instruments of assignment and transfer, the Mortgagor hereby ratifying and confirming all that its said attorney shall lawfully do by virtue hereof. Nevertheless, the Mortgagor shall, if so requested by the Mortgagee in writing, ratify and confirm such sale by executing and delivering to the purchaser of any Vessel such proper bill of sale, conveyance, instrument of transfer, and release as may be designated in such request.

			(d)          The Mortgagor hereby irrevocably appoints the Mortgagee the true and lawful attorney of the Mortgagor so long as a Default shall have occurred and shall not have been waived by the Mortgagee, in the name of the Mortgagor, to demand, collect, receive, compromise and sue for, so far as may be permitted by law, all hires, earnings, issues, revenues, income and profits of the Vessels and all amounts due from underwriters under any insurance thereon as payment of losses or as return premiums or otherwise, salvage awards and recoveries, recoveries in general average or otherwise, any right of action against the designer, builder, surveyor or other material party for any fault, negligence or deficiency in design, construction or survey of the Vessels and all other sums, due or to become due, at or after the time of the happening of any Default in respect of the Vessels or in respect of any insurance thereon from any person whomsoever, and to make, give and execute in the name of the Mortgagor, acquittances, receipts, releases or other discharges for the same, whether under seal or otherwise, and to endorse and accept in the name of the Mortgagor all checks, notes, drafts, warrants, agreements and all other instruments in writing with respect to the foregoing.
		

		
			(e)          No remedy shall be exclusive of any other remedy, and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedy.
		

		
			(f)           No delay or omission to exercise any right or remedy shall impair any such right or remedy or shall be deemed to be a waiver of any Default.
		

		
			(g)          The exercise of any right or remedy shall not constitute an election of remedies by the Mortgagee.
		

		
			(h)          If the Mortgagee discontinues any proceeding, the rights and remedies of the Mortgagee and of the Mortgagor shall be as though no such proceeding had been taken.
		

		
			SECTION 5.03. Waivers of Default. (a) If the Mortgagee shall not have assumed the Mortgagor's rights and duties under the Note Purchase Agreement and the Note and made any payments in default under Chapter 537, and if the Mortgagee determines that an event which, with the passage of time, would become a Payment Default, has been remedied within thirty (30) days after the occurrence of such event, upon a Request by the Mortgagor, the Mortgagee shall waive the consequences of such event.
		

		
			(b)          If the Mortgagee shall not have assumed the Mortgagor's rights and duties under the Note Purchase Agreement and the Note and made any payments in default under Chapter 537, and if the Mortgagee shall have determined prior to payment of the Guarantee that a Payment Default has been remedied within thirty (30) days after the occurrence of such event, but prior to the date of demand by a Holder for payment under the Guarantee, upon a Request by the Mortgagor, the Mortgagee shall waive such Default.
		

		
			(c)          If the Mortgagee shall have determined prior to the expiration of the period required for payment of the Guarantee that a Payment Default had not occurred or has been subsequently remedied by the Mortgagor (and if the Mortgagee shall not have assumed the Mortgagor's rights and duties under the Note Purchase Agreement and the Note and made any payments in default under Chapter 537 and prior to any payment of the Guarantee), the Mortgagee shall notify the Holder and the Mortgagor of such determination, and, the Mortgagee shall waive such Default.

			(e)          The Mortgagee shall notify the Mortgagor and the Holder in writing of any determinations made under Subsections (a), (b), and (c) of this Section, and the Mortgagee shall waive the consequences of any such Default, and annul any declaration under Section 5.02 of this Mortgage, and the consequences thereof.
		

		
			(f)           No waiver under this Section shall extend to or affect any subsequent or other Default, nor impair any rights or remedies consequent thereon.

			SECTION 5.04.  Application of Proceeds. (a) The proceeds (from sale or otherwise) of the whole or any part of the Vessel and the other Collateral and use thereof by the Mortgagee under any of the foregoing powers, (b) the proceeds of any judgment collected by the Mortgagee for any Default hereunder, (c) the proceeds of any insurance and of any claim for damages to the whole or any part of the Vessel and the other Collateral received by the Mortgagee while exercising any such power, and (d) all other amounts received by the Mortgagee, including amounts which are required by Sections 3.03 and 3.10 hereof shall be applied by the Mortgagee in the following order:

			(c)          The Mortgagor irrevocably authorizes the Mortgagee or its appointee (with full power of substitution) to appear in the name of the Mortgagor in any court of any country or nation of the world where a suit is pending against the whole or any part of the Collateral because of, or on account of, any alleged Lien or claim against the whole or any part of the Collateral, from which the whole or said part of the Collateral has not been released.

			SECTION 5.08.  Additional Debts of Mortgagor to Mortgagee. (a) If the Mortgagor shall fail to perform any covenant, condition or agreement set forth in any of the Transaction Documents, the Mortgagee may, in its discretion, at any time during the continuance of an event which by itself, with the passage of time, or the giving of notice, would constitute a Default, perform all acts and make all necessary expenditures to remedy such failure. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Mortgagee shall not be obligated to (and shall not be liable for the failure to) perform such acts and make such expenditures.  All funds advanced and expenses and damages incurred by the Mortgagee relating to such compliance shall constitute a debt due from the Mortgagor to the Mortgagee and shall be secured hereunder prior to the Administrator’s Note and shall be repaid by the Mortgagor upon demand, together with interest at the Expended Funds Rate plus two percent (2%).

			SECTION 5.11.   Consent to Jurisdiction for Proceeding Relating to Mortgage. This Mortgage shall in all respects be governed by and construed in accordance with the federal laws of the United States, including federal common law. The Mortgagor irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of the United States District Court of the Jurisdiction State/City, in any proceeding relating to this Mortgage and agrees that any process or summons in any such action may be served by mailing to Mortgagor a copy thereof, unless the Mortgagee has instituted proceedings in a United States District Court which maintains jurisdiction over where the Vessel may be located and, in such case, Mortgagor consents to and subjects itself to the jurisdiction of that federal court.
		

		
			SECTION 5.12.  Chapter 537 Rights and Remedies. The Mortgagee, in addition to such other rights or remedies it may have, shall have the right, in its discretion, to take any and all action authorized by Chapter 537 and, to the extent not in express conflict with the action authorized by said Sections, any and all action provided for in or authorized or permitted by or in respect of this Mortgage, the Agreement, the Administrator’s Note, the other Transaction Documents, any Note Purchase Documents, and policies of insurance (including all action provided for in or authorized or permitted by or in respect of any or all said documents by the Mortgagee) and public policy, as the case may be.
		

		
			SECTION 5.13.  Restoration of Rights and Position. In case the Mortgagee shall have proceeded to enforce any right, power, or remedy under this Mortgage by foreclosure, entry, or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Mortgagee, then and in every such case the Mortgagor and the Mortgagee shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the property subject or intended to be subject to this Mortgage, and all rights, remedies, and powers of the Mortgagee shall continue as if no proceedings had been taken.
		

		
			SECTION 5.14.  Remedies Cumulative. Each and every power and remedy herein specifically given to the Mortgagee or otherwise in this Mortgage shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other power and remedy herein specifically given or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity, admiralty, or by statute, and each and every power and remedy whether specifically herein given or otherwise existing may be exercised from time to time and as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by the Mortgagee, and shall not be construed to be a waiver of the right to exercise at the same time or thereafter any other power or remedy. No delay or omission by the Mortgagee in the exercise of any right or power or in the pursuance of any remedy occurring upon a Default shall impair any such right, power, or remedy or be construed to be a waiver of any such Default or to be any acquiescence therein; nor shall the acceptance by the Mortgagee of any security or of any payment of or on account of the Administrator’s Note maturing after any Default or of any payment on account of any past Default be construed to be a waiver of any right to take advantage of any future Default or of any past Default not completely cured thereby.

			“NOTICE OF FIRST PREFERRED FLEET MORTGAGE
		

		
			This Vessel is owned by MATSON NAVIGATION COMPANY, INC., a Hawaii corporation (the “Shipowner”), and is covered by a First Preferred Fleet Mortgage in favor of the United States of America, under authority of Chapter 313 of Title 46 of the United States Code. Under the terms of said Mortgage neither the Shipowner, any charterer, the master or agent of this Vessel nor any other person has any right, power or authority to create, incur or permit to be placed or imposed upon this Vessel any lien other than statutory liens incident to current operations that are subordinate to the Mortgage.”
		

		
			SECTION 3.06.  Compliance with 46 U.S.C. Chapter 313. The Shipowner shall comply with and satisfy all of the provisions of Chapter 313, to the extent necessary in order to establish and thereafter to maintain this Mortgage as a preferred mortgage upon each Vessel.
		

		
			SECTION 3.07. Insurance.
		

		
			(b)          Insurance Amounts. From and after the Closing Date and at all times thereafter, the Shipowner shall, without cost to the Administrator, keep such Vessel insured as indicated below and with such additional insurance as may be specified by the Administrator in an amount in U.S. dollars equal to one hundred ten percent (110%) of the unpaid principal amount of the Proportionate Part of the Administrator's Note, or such greater sum, up to and including the full commercial value of such Vessel as may be required by the Administrator.  The Shipowner shall provide to the Administrator complete confirmation of insurance in the form of certificates of insurance prior to expiration of existing coverage.
		

		
			(1)          Hull & Machinery, and War Risk Insurance. Marine and war risk hull insurance under the latest (at the time of issue of the policies in question) forms of American Institute of Marine Underwriters' policies approved by the Administrator and/or policy forms which provide materially equivalent coverage afforded under latest American Institute of Marine Underwriter policies and/or policies issued by or for the Maritime Administration (or under such other forms of policies as the Administrator may approve in writing) insuring such Vessel against the usual risks covered by such forms (including, at the Shipowner’s option, such amounts of increased value and other forms of "total loss only" insurance as are permitted by said hull insurance policies).
		

		
			(2)          Port Risk Insurance. While any Vessel is laid up, at the Shipowner’s option and in lieu of the above-mentioned marine and war risk hull insurance or marine and war risk hull and increased value insurance, port risk insurance with war risk endorsement under the latest (at the time of issue of the policies in question) forms of American Institute of Marine Underwriters' policies approved by the Administrator and/or policy forms which provide materially equivalent coverage afforded under latest American Institute of Marine Underwriter policies and/or policies issued by or for the Maritime Administration (or under such other forms of policies as the Administrator may approve in writing) insuring such Vessel against the usual risks covered by such forms.

			(4)          Self Insurance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Shipowner, with the Administrator’s prior consent, shall have the right to self-insure up to the Maximum Self-Insurance Amount for any loss resulting from any one accident or occurrence (other than an actual or constructive total loss of any Vessel).
		

		
			(c)          Loss Payee. All policies of insurance under this Section shall provide, so long as the Agreement is in effect and the Vessel Collateral has not been discharged, that payment of all losses shall be made payable to the Administrator for distribution by him to himself, the Shipowner and (in the case of the insurance required by Subsection (a) of this Section) the Shipyard, except that (1) as provided in Subsection (e) of this Section and (2) under the policies required by Subsection (b) of this Section, payment of all losses up to the Maximum Payment Amount of Losses Directly to Shipowner by all insurance underwriters with respect to any one accident, occurrence or event may be made directly to the Shipowner unless there is an existing Default, or if the Administrator shall have assumed the Shipowner’s rights and duties under the Note Purchase Agreement and the Note and made any payments in default under Chapter 537, in which event payment of all losses shall be made payable to the Administrator as aforesaid. Any such insurance recoveries to which the Administrator shall be so entitled shall be applied as follows:

			(d)          Claim for Constructive Total Loss. In the event of an accident, occurrence or event resulting in a constructive total loss of any Vessel, the Administrator shall have the right (with the prior consent of the Shipowner, unless there is an existing Default, and at any time prior to the Delivery Date of such Vessel also with the prior consent of the Shipyard) to claim for a constructive total loss of such Vessel.  If (1) such claim is accepted by all underwriters under all policies then in force as to such Vessel under which payment is due for total loss and (2) payment in full is made in cash under such policies to the Administrator, then the Administrator shall have the right to abandon such Vessel to the underwriters of such policies, free from the Lien of the Agreement and this Mortgage.
		

		
			(e)          Protection and Indemnity Insurance. Commencing on the Closing Date of each Vessel, the Shipowner shall, without cost to the Administrator, keep each such Vessel insured against marine and war risk protection and indemnity risks and liabilities by insurance approved by the Administrator as to form and in the amount of the Insurance Requirements; provided that, (1) the Shipowner shall, as soon as possible before such Closing Date, present any such certificate of entry to the Administrator (who shall promptly approve or disapprove the same), (2) any approval of a policy under this Subsection shall be effective until the end of the policy period or until sixty (60) days after the Administrator shall notify the Shipowner of a desired change in the form and/or amount thereof, whichever shall first occur, and (3) war risk protection and indemnity insurance shall be required unless the Administrator gives notice to the Shipowner stating that such insurance is not required.
		

		
			Such policies may provide that (1) if the Shipowner shall not have incurred the loss, damage, or expense in question, any loss under such insurance may be paid directly to the Person to whom any liability covered by such policies has been incurred (whether or not a Default then exists), and (2) if the Shipowner shall have incurred the loss, damage or expense in question, any such loss shall be paid to the Shipowner in reimbursement if there is no existing Default of which the underwriter has written notice from the Shipowner or the Administrator, or, if there is such an existing Default, to the Administrator to be held and applied as follows:  (A) applied as provided in Section 14.04 hereof in the event the Guarantee shall have terminated pursuant to Section 2.04(b)(3) of the Agreement or if the Administrator shall have assumed the Shipowner's rights and duties under the Note Purchase Agreement and the Note and made any payments in default under Chapter 537, or (B) to the extent not theretofore applied pursuant to Section 14.04 of the Agreement, paid forthwith to the Shipowner upon its Request in the event there is no existing Default or the Guarantee shall have terminated pursuant to Section 2.04(b)(1), (2) or (4) of the Agreement at the date of delivery of such Request; provided that, irrespective of the foregoing, with the Administrator’s prior consent, the Shipowner shall have the right to self-insure in an amount up to the Maximum Self-Insurance Amount hereof with respect to each accident, occurrence or event, except that, with respect to cargo or property carried, the Shipowner, with the Administrator’s prior consent, shall have the right to self-insure in an amount up to the Maximum Self-Insurance Amount set forth on Annex A of the Agreement with respect to each cargo or property carried.
		

		
			(f)           Insurance Underwriters. All insurance required under this Section shall be placed and kept with the Government or with United States domiciled and state regulated or United States domiciled mutual assurance association to the maximum extent possible subject to market capacity (and/or other foreign, if permitted by the Administrator as set forth in 46 CFR Part 249), insurance companies, underwriters' association or underwriting funds approved by the Administrator.

			revision of the Administrator’s List of “MARAD Approved Foreign Underwriters.”  All insurance required under this Subsection shall be arranged through United States licensed marine insurance brokers and/or underwriting agents domiciled in the United States (and/or other foreign, if permitted by the Administrator in writing) as chosen by the Shipowner and approved by the Administrator.
		

		
			(g)          Providing Compromised Total Loss. The Administrator shall not have the right to enter into an agreement or compromise providing for an agreed or compromised total loss of any Vessel without prior consent of the Shipowner unless there is an existing Default.  If (1) the Shipowner shall have given prior consent thereto or (2) there is an existing Default, the Administrator shall have the right in his discretion, and with the prior consent of the Shipyard prior to the Delivery Date of such Vessel, to enter into an agreement or compromise providing for an agreed or compromised total loss of such Vessel; provided that, if the aggregate amount payable to the Shipowner and/or the Administrator under such agreement or compromise, together with funds held by the Administrator and available for the prepayment of the Note, is not sufficient to pay the Proportionate Part of the Note then Outstanding pursuant to Section 11.12 of the Agreement, the Administrator shall not enter into such agreement or compromise without the Shipowner’s prior consent.
		

		
			(h)          Vessel Requisition. During the continuance of (1) a taking or requisition of the use of any Vessel by any government or governmental body, or (2) a charter, with the Administrator’s prior consent, of the use of any Vessel by the Government, the provisions of this Section shall be deemed to have been complied with in all respects if such government or governmental body shall have agreed to reimburse, in a manner approved by the Administrator in writing, the Shipowner for loss or damage covered by the insurance required hereunder or resulting from the risks under Subsections (a), (b), and (e) of this Section or if the Shipowner shall be entitled to just compensation therefor. In addition, the provisions of this Section shall be deemed to have been complied with in all respects during any period after (A) title to any Vessel shall have been taken or requisitioned by any government or governmental body or (B) there shall have been an actual or constructive total loss or an agreed or compromised total loss of any Vessel.  In the event of any taking, requisition, charter or loss contemplated by this Subsection, the Shipowner shall promptly furnish to the Administrator an Officer's Certificate stating that such taking, requisition, charter or loss has occurred and, if there shall have been a taking, requisition or charter of the use of any Vessel, that the government or governmental body in question has agreed to reimburse the Shipowner, in a manner approved by the Administrator, for loss or damage resulting from the risks under Subsections (a), (b), and (e) of this Section or that the Shipowner is entitled to just compensation therefor.
		

		
			(i)           Required Assured and No Recourse. All insurance required under Subsections (b) and (e) of this Section shall be taken out in the names of the Shipowner and the United States as additional insured or co-assureds.  All policies for such insurance so taken out shall, unless otherwise consented to by the Administrator, provide that (1) there shall be no recourse against the United States for the payment of premiums or commissions, (2) if such policies provide for the payment of club calls, assessments or advances, there shall be no recourse against the United States for the payment thereof, and (3) at least ten (10) days' prior written notice of any cancellation for the nonpayment of premiums, commissions, club calls, assessments or advances shall be given to the Administrator by the lead insurance underwriters.

			(j)           Surety Agreement. In the event that any claim or Lien is asserted against any Vessel for loss, damage or expense which is covered by insurance hereunder and it is necessary for the Shipowner to obtain a bond or supply other security to prevent arrest of such Vessel or to release such Vessel from arrest on account of said claim or Lien, the Administrator, on the Shipowner’s Request, may, at the Administrator’s sole option, assign to any Person executing a surety or guaranty bond or other agreement to save or release such Vessel from such arrest, all right, title and interest of the Administrator in and to said insurance covering such loss, damage or expense as collateral security to indemnify against liability under said bond or other agreement.
		

		
			(k)          Insurance Certificates. Except as the Administrator shall otherwise direct by notice in writing to the Shipowner, the Shipowner shall deliver to the Administrator the certificate of entry evidencing protection & indemnity and a certificate of insurance evidencing hull & machinery insurance maintained under this Section; provided that, if any such certificate of insurance shall have been delivered previously to the Administrator or to a mortgagee by the Shipowner under another ship mortgage of the Shipowner, the Shipowner shall deliver a duplicate or pro forma copy of such policy to the Administrator. Upon request by the Administrator, Shipowner shall provide a copy of the hull & machinery proforma policy.  The Administrator or any agent thereof (who may also be an agent of the issuer) shall at all times hold the certificates delivered as aforesaid; provided that, if one or more of said certificates are held by an agent of the Administrator, the Shipowner shall, upon the Administrator’s Request, deliver a duplicate or pro forma hull & machinery policy  thereof to the Administrator, and provided further, that if the Shipowner shall deliver to the Administrator a Request (1) stating that delivery of such policy to the insurer is necessary in connection with the collection, enforcement or settlement of any claim thereunder (including claims for return premiums and any other amounts payable by the insurer) and (2) setting forth the name and address of the Person to whom such policy is to be delivered or mailed for such purpose, and if the Administrator approves such Request, the Administrator shall, at the Shipowner’s expense, deliver or mail (by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid) such policy in accordance with such Request, accompanied by a written direction to the recipient to redeliver such policy directly to the Administrator or an agent thereof when it has served the purpose for which so delivered.  The Shipowner agrees that, in case it shall at any time so cause the delivery or mailing of any policy to any Person as aforesaid, the Shipowner will cause such policy to be promptly redelivered to the Administrator or an agent thereof as aforesaid.  The Administrator shall have no duty to see to the redelivery of such policy, but shall have the duty to request the redelivery thereof at intervals of sixty (60) days thereafter.
		

		
			(l)           Trade Restrictions. Unless requested by the Shipowner in writing and approved the Administrator in writing, the Vessel shall not call, operate, or transit territorial waters of any country who is not a party to (1) a bilateral investment treaty with the United States, (2) a multilateral or regional trade treaty which the United States also is a party to, or (3) the United Nations Convention on Transparency in Treaty-Based Investor-State Arbitration (Convention), done at New York on December 10, 1958, as amended or modified, provided however, no such request and approval shall be required in the event of an emergency.
		

		
			(m)         Office of Foreign Asset Control (OFAC).

			(n)          No Limits to Additional Insurance as Required. Nothing in this Section shall limit the insurance coverage which the Administrator may require under any contract or agreement to which the Administrator and the Shipowner are parties other than the Transaction Documents.
		

		
			(o)          When Required Insurance is not Commercially Available.  If at any time the insurance required by this Section 3.07 is not commercially available or is available at a cost the Shipowner considers uneconomical, the Shipowner shall submit to the Administrator for the Administrator’s approval a proposal for insurance coverage on terms the Shipowner considers acceptable and that provides coverages that are as close as commercially available to the requirements of this Section 3.07.  During the time the insurance required by this Section 3.07 is not commercially available or is available at a cost the Shipowner considers uneconomical, the failure to maintain such insurance required by this Section 3.07 shall not constitute a Security Default provided that the Shipowner continues to keep the Vessels insured on terms that are commercially available and with coverages the Shipowner considers to be as close as commercially available to the requirements of this Section 3.07.  If at any time after availing itself of the provisions of this Section 3.07(o) the insurance required by this Section 3.07 again becomes commercially available or available at a cost the Shipowner considers economical, the Shipowner shall as soon as practicable thereafter reinstate the insurance required by this Section 3.07.

			(4)          if the Guarantee shall have terminated pursuant to Section 2.04(b)(1), (2), or (4) of the Agreement, such amounts shall be paid by the Administrator to the Shipowner.
		

		
			Provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Shipowner shall not be required to pay the Administrator any amount which the Administrator agrees is in excess of the amount needed for prepayment of the Proportionate Part of the Outstanding Advances affected by the Loss Event plus any additional amounts due to the Holder pursuant to the Note Purchase Documents as a result of such Mandatory Prepayment Election.
		

		
			SECTION 3.10. Compliance with Laws.  The Shipowner shall comply in all material respects with the requirements of all laws and all orders, writs, injunctions and decrees applicable to it or to its properties, except in such instances in which (a) such requirement of law or order, writ, injunction or decree is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted or (b) the failure to comply therewith, either individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

			(8)          Any event constituting a default in payment by the Shipowner or the Affiliate Guarantor under any non-Chapter 537 debt of the Shipowner or the Affiliate Guarantor in an amount greater than $40 million and which remains uncured for more than ten (10) days, and any event constituting a default (other than a default by reason of nonpayment) by the Shipowner or the Affiliate Guarantor under any such non-Chapter 537 debt of the Shipowner or the Affiliate Guarantor in an amount greater than $40 million if such default results in the acceleration of such non-Chapter 537 debt;
		

		
			(9)          Any Special Security Default; and
		

		
			(10)        Any event constituting a default under any bareboat or time charter or contract of affreightment of the Vessel, subject to applicable notice and cure periods with respect thereto.
		

		
			 (c)          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Agreement, the failure or omission of the Shipowner or the Affiliate Guarantor to satisfy any Supplemental Financial Test of Shipowner or any Supplemental Financial Test of Affiliate Guarantor, respectively, shall not, by itself, constitute a Default hereunder.
		

		
			(d)          The Shipowner hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrator the true and lawful attorney of the Shipowner so long as a Default shall have occurred and be continuing and shall not have been waived by the Administrator, in the name of the Shipowner, to demand, collect, receive, compromise and sue for, so far as may be permitted by law, all hires, earnings, issues, revenues, income, and profits of the Vessels and all amounts due from underwriters under any insurance thereon as payment of losses or as return premiums or otherwise, salvage awards and recoveries, recoveries in general average or otherwise, any right of action against the designer, builder, surveyor, or other material party for any fault, negligence or deficiency in design, construction or survey of the Vessels and all other sums, due or to become due, at or after the time of the happening of any Default in respect of the Vessels or in respect of any insurance thereon from any person whomsoever, and to make, give and execute in the name of the Shipowner, acquittances, receipts, releases or other discharges for the same, whether under seal or otherwise, and to endorse and accept in the name of the Shipowner all checks, notes, drafts, warrants, agreements, and all other instruments in writing with respect to the foregoing.
		

		
			SECTION 5.02. Remedies Upon Default. (a) At any time following the occurrence of a Security Default, the Administrator may give the Holder an Administrator’s Notice, after which the Holder shall have the right to make demand for payment of the Guarantee in accordance with Chapter 537, unless the Administrator shall have assumed the Shipowner’s rights and duties under the Note Purchase Agreement and Note, and made any payments in default under Chapter 537.
		

		
			(b) Upon the occurrence of a Default, the Administrator shall have the right at its discretion to:
		

		
			(1)          Declare the principal of the Administrator's Note, interest accrued thereon, premiums and all other monetary obligations due under the Administrator’s Note, the Agreement, this Mortgage or any of the other Transaction Documents to be immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Shipowner, at any time after a Default has occurred and is continuing under the terms of the Agreement or any of the other

			Transaction Documents and, thereupon, the principal of and interest on the Administrator's Note shall become immediately due and payable, together with interest at the Approved Interest Rate applicable to each Advance under the Administrator’s Note; provided, however, that if any Default specified in Section 14.01(b)(4) of the Agreement shall occur, the principal of, all interest on, premiums and all other monetary obligations due under the Administrator’s Note, the Agreement, this Mortgage or any of the other Transaction Documents shall thereupon become due and payable concurrently therewith, without any further action by the Administrator, and without presentment, demand, protest, notice of default, notice of acceleration, or of intention to accelerate or other notice of any kind, all of which the Shipowner hereby expressly waives;
		

		
			(2)          Take the Vessels without legal process wherever the same may be (and the Shipowner or other Person in possession shall forthwith surrender possession of the Vessels to the Administrator upon demand) and hold, layup, lease, charter, operate, or otherwise use the Vessels for such time and upon such terms as the Administrator may reasonably deem to be in the Administrator’s best interest, accounting only for the net profits, if any, arising from the use of the Vessels, and charging against all receipts from the use of the Vessels, all reasonable charges and expenses relating to such Vessel’s use. IT IS EXPRESSLY UNDERSTOOD AND AGREED TO BY THE SHIPOWNER THAT SURRENDER OF ANY VESSEL UNDER THIS SECTION MUST BE AND WILL BE IMMEDIATE AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE DIRECTIONS OF THE ADMINISTRATOR. FAILURE OF THE SHIPOWNER TO IMMEDIATELY COMPLY WITH THE ADMINISTRATOR’S DEMAND FOR SURRENDER OF ANY VESSEL WILL CAUSE THE POSSESSION OF THE VESSEL BY THE SHIPOWNER (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, POSSESSION AND CONTROL OF THE VESSEL BY A MASTER OR CREW MEMBER ON BOARD THE VESSEL) TO BE UNLAWFUL, THEREBY SUBJECTING THE SHIPOWNER TO ALL FINES, PENALTIES AND ACTIONS WHICH THE ADMINISTRATOR DEEMS APPLICABLE AND APPROPRIATE. SHOULD THE SHIPOWNER CONTINUE TO OPERATE, POSSESS OR CONTROL THE VESSEL CONTRARY TO THE ADMINISTRATOR’S DIRECTIONS AND THE PROVISIONS HEREIN, THEN THE ADMINISTRATOR SHALL, IN ADDITION TO ANY OTHER RIGHTS AND REMEDIES AT LAW AND IN EQUITY, BE ENTITLED TO A TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER AND/OR ORDER FOR INJUNCTIVE RELIEF NECESSARY TO GAIN COMPLIANCE HEREWITH. IN ADDITION TO EXPRESSLY CONSENTING THAT THE INJURY AND DAMAGE RESULTING FROM BREACH HEREOF WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE TO MEASURE MONETARILY, SHIPOWNER EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY DEFENSE BASED UPON AN ALLEGED EXISTENCE OF AN ADEQUATE REMEDY AT LAW;
		

		
			(3)          Exercise all the rights and remedies in foreclosure and otherwise given to mortgagees by Chapter 313;
		

		
			(4)          Bring suit at law, in equity or in admiralty to recover judgment for any and all amounts due or to enforce any rights under the Administrator's Note, the Agreement, this Mortgage, and the other Transaction Documents to collect the same out of any and all property  of the Shipowner and/or the Affiliate Guarantor, whether or not the same is subject to the Lien of this Mortgage or the Agreement, and in connection therewith, obtain

			a decree ordering the sale of any Vessel in accordance with Subsection (b)(6) of this Section;
		

		
			(5)          Have a receiver of the Vessels appointed as a matter of right in any suit under this Section (and any such receiver may have the rights of the Administrator under Subsection (b)(6) of this Section) and any receiver so appointed shall have full right and power to use and operate the Vessels;
		

		
			(6)          Sell any Vessel, free from any claim of the Shipowner, in addition to any and all other rights, powers, and remedies elsewhere in the Agreement or by law granted to and conferred upon the Administrator, upon such terms and conditions as it may deem to be for its best advantage, including the right to sell and dispose of any Vessel free from any claim of or by the Shipowner, at public sale, by sealed bids or otherwise, after twice publishing notice of the time and place of such sale prior to the proposed sale in the Authorized Newspaper, and by mailing notice of such sale to the Shipowner at its last known address; such publication and mailing is to be made at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date fixed for such sale; such sale may be held at such place and at such time as the Administrator in such notice may have specified, or may be adjourned by the Administrator from time to time by announcement at the time and place appointed for such sale or for such adjourned sale, and without further notice of publication and the Administrator may make any such sale at the time and place to which the same shall be so adjourned; and any such sale may be conducted without bringing any Vessel to the place designated for such sale and in such manner as the Administrator may deem to be for its best advantage, and the Administrator may become the purchaser at any such sale, and shall have the right to credit on the purchase price any or all sums of money due to the Administrator under the Administrator’s Note, the Agreement, this Mortgage, the other Transaction Documents or otherwise hereunder. THE SHIPOWNER EXPRESSLY AGREES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT SALE OF THE VESSEL PURSUANT TO THIS SECTION WILL NOT IMPAIR OR LIMIT THE ADMINISTRATOR’S LEGAL RIGHT TO COLLECT FROM THE SHIPOWNER ANY DEFICIENCY REMAINING AFTER THE SALE. IF ANY APPLICABLE LEGAL AUTHORITIES MAY BE CONSTRUED TO LIMIT THE ADMINISTRATOR’S RIGHTS TO COLLECTION OF SAID DEFICIENCY FROM THE SHIPOWNER, THEN SHIPOWNER HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES, RELINQUISHES AND FOREVER GIVES UP THE RIGHT TO AVAIL ITSELF OF SUCH LEGAL AUTHORITIES;
		

		
			(7)          Accept a conveyance of title to, and to take without legal process (and the Shipowner or other Person in possession shall forthwith surrender possession to the Administrator), the whole or any part of any Vessel and the Vessel Collateral wherever the same may be, and to take possession of and to hold the same;
		

		
			(8)          In the Administrator’s discretion, take any and all action authorized by Sections 53715(c), 53724, and 53725 of Chapter 537 and any and all action provided for, or authorized, or permitted by, or with respect to the Vessel Collateral;
		

		
			(9)          Receive, in the event of an actual or constructive total loss, or an agreed or compromised total loss, or a requisition of title to or use of any Vessel, all insurance or other payments therefor to which the Shipowner would otherwise be entitled, such

			insurance moneys to be applied by the Administrator in accordance with Section 14.04 of the Agreement; and
		

		
			(10)        Pursue to final collection of all the claims arising under this Mortgage and to collect such claims from, the Vessel Collateral.
		

		
			(c)          The Shipowner hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrator the true and lawful attorney of the Shipowner, in its name and stead, to make all necessary transfers of the whole or any part of the Vessel Collateral in connection with a sale, use or other disposition pursuant to Section 14.02(b) of the Agreement, and for that purpose to execute all necessary instruments of assignment and transfer, the Shipowner hereby ratifying and confirming all that its said attorney shall lawfully do by virtue hereof. Nevertheless, the Shipowner shall, if so requested by the Administrator, ratify and confirm such sale by executing and delivering to any purchaser of the whole or any part of the Vessel Collateral, such proper bill of sale, conveyance, instrument of transfer, or release as may be designated in such request.
		

		
			(d)          The Shipowner hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrator the true and lawful attorney of the Shipowner so long as a Default shall have occurred and be continuing and shall not have been waived by the Administrator, in the name of the Shipowner, to demand, collect, receive, compromise and sue for, so far as may be permitted by law, all hires, earnings, issues, revenues, income, and profits of the Vessels and all amounts due from underwriters under any insurance thereon as payment of losses or as return premiums or otherwise, salvage awards and recoveries, recoveries in general average or otherwise, any right of action against the designer, builder, surveyor, or other material party for any fault, negligence or deficiency in design, construction or survey of the Vessels and all other sums, due or to become due, at or after the time of the happening of any Default in respect of the Vessels or in respect of any insurance thereon from any person whomsoever, and to make, give and execute in the name of the Shipowner, acquittances, receipts, releases or other discharges for the same, whether under seal or otherwise, and to endorse and accept in the name of the Shipowner all checks, notes, drafts, warrants, agreements, and all other instruments in writing with respect to the foregoing.
		

		
			(e)          No remedy shall be exclusive of any other remedy, and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedy.
		

		
			(f)           No delay or omission to exercise any right or remedy shall impair any such right or remedy or shall be deemed to be a waiver of any Default.
		

		
			(g)          The exercise of any right or remedy shall not constitute an election of remedies by the Administrator.
		

		
			(h)          If the Administrator discontinues any proceeding, the rights and remedies of the Administrator and of the Shipowner shall be as though no such proceeding had been taken.
		

		
			SECTION 5.03. Waivers of Default. (a) If the Administrator shall not have assumed the Shipowner's rights and duties under the Note Purchase Agreement and the Note and made any payments in default under Chapter 537, and if the Administrator determines that an event which, with the passage of time, would become a Payment Default, has been remedied within thirty (30) days after the occurrence of such event, upon a Request by the Shipowner, the Administrator shall waive the consequences of such event.

			(b)          If the Administrator shall not have assumed the Shipowner's rights and duties under the Note Purchase Agreement and the Note and made any payments in default under Chapter 537, and if the Administrator shall have determined prior to payment of the Guarantee that a Payment Default has been remedied within thirty (30) days after the occurrence of such event, but prior to the date of demand by the Holder for payment under the Guarantee, upon a Request by the Shipowner, the Administrator shall waive such Default.
		

		
			(c)          If the Administrator shall have determined prior to the expiration of the period required for payment of the Guarantee that a Payment Default had not occurred or has been subsequently remedied by the Shipowner (and if the Administrator shall not have assumed the Shipowner's rights and duties under the Note Purchase Agreement and the Note and made any payments in default under Chapter 537 and prior to any payment of the Guarantee), the Administrator shall notify the Holder and the Shipowner of such determination, and, the Administrator shall waive such Default.
		

		
			(d)          The Administrator, in its sole discretion, may waive any Security Default or any event which by itself, or with the passage of time or the giving of notice, or both, would give rise to a Security Default; provided however, that if the Administrator (i) shall not have assumed the Shipowner's rights and duties under the Note Purchase Agreement and the Note and made any payments in default under Chapter 537, and if the Administrator determines that an event which, with the passage of time, would become a Security Default, has been remedied within the time provided herein, upon a Request by the Shipowner, the Administrator shall waive the consequences of such event; and (ii) If the Administrator shall have determined that a Security Default had not occurred or has been subsequently remedied by the Shipowner and if the Administrator shall not have given an Administrator’s Notice and assumed the Shipowner's rights and duties under the Note Purchase Agreement and the Note and made any payments in default under Chapter 537 and has not made any payment on the Guarantee, the Administrator shall waive such Default.
		

		
			(e)          The Administrator shall notify the Shipowner in writing of any determinations made under Subsections (a), (b), (c) and (d) of this Section, and the Administrator shall waive the consequences of any such Default, and annul any declaration under Section 14.02 of the Agreement, and the consequences thereof.
		

		
			(f)           No waiver under this Section shall extend to or affect any subsequent or other Default, nor impair any rights or remedies consequent thereon.
		

		
			(g)  No waiver under this Section shall be deemed to have occurred because the Administrator shall have assumed the Shipowner's rights and duties under the Note Purchase Agreement and the Note and made any payments in default under Chapter 537.
		

		
			SECTION 5.04. Application of Proceeds.  During the existence and the continuation of a Default, (a) the proceeds (from sale or otherwise) of the whole or any part of the Vessel Collateral (including the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund and all Income Realized on the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund) and use thereof by the Administrator under any of the foregoing powers, (b) the proceeds of any judgment collected by the Administrator for any Default hereunder, (c) the proceeds of any insurance and of any claim for damages to the whole or any part of the Vessel Collateral received by the Administrator while exercising any such power, and (d) all other amounts received by the

			SECTION 5.06.  Divesture of Rights, Title and Interest.

			SECTION 5.07. General Powers of the Administrator.  (a) In the event that any Vessel shall be arrested or detained by a marshal or other officer of any court of law, equity or admiralty jurisdiction in any country or nation of the world or by any government or other authority, and shall not be released from arrest or detention within fifteen (15) days or such longer period of time from the date of arrest or detention as may be required under the circumstances and during which the Shipowner shall exercise due diligence to seek such release, the Shipowner hereby authorizes and empowers the Administrator, in the name of the Shipowner and hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrator and its successors and assigns the true and lawful attorney of the Shipowner, in its name and stead, to apply for and receive possession of and to take possession of such Vessel with all the rights and powers that the Shipowner might have, possess and exercise in any such event. This power of attorney shall be irrevocable and may be exercised not only by the Administrator but also by an appointee or appointees, with full power of substitution, to the same extent as if said appointee or appointees had been named as one of the attorneys above named by express designation.
		

		
			(b)          The Shipowner also authorizes and empowers the Administrator or the Administrator’s appointee or appointees, as the true and lawful attorney of the Shipowner, to appear in the name of the Shipowner, or its successors or assigns, in any court of any country or nation in the world where a suit is pending against any Vessel because or on account of any alleged Lien against the Vessel (other than any Permitted Lien) from which the Vessel has not been released within the time provided in Section 5.07 (a) above and to take such proceedings as to them or any of them as may seem proper towards the defense of such suit and the discharge of such Lien, and all reasonable and necessary expenditures made or incurred by them or any of them for the purpose of such defense or discharge shall be deemed to be an indebtedness of the Shipowner and shall be secured by the Agreement and this Mortgage and shall be immediately due and payable and, until paid, shall bear interest at the Expended Funds Rate plus two percent (2%).
		

		
			SECTION 5.08. Additional Debts of Shipowner to Administrator. (a) If the Shipowner shall fail to perform any covenant, condition or agreement set forth in the Transaction Documents, the Administrator may, in its discretion, after giving the Shipowner notice of its intent to avail itself of its right under this Section 5.08 with respect to such failure to perform and thereafter at any time during the continuance of an event which by itself, with the passage of time, or the giving of notice, would constitute a Default, perform all acts and make all reasonable expenditures reasonably necessary to remedy such failure. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator shall not be obligated to (and shall not be liable for the failure to) perform such acts and make such expenditures.  All funds so advanced and expenses reasonably incurred by the Administrator relating to such compliance shall constitute a debt due from the Shipowner to the Administrator and shall be secured hereunder and under this Mortgage prior to the Administrator's Note and shall be repaid by the Shipowner upon demand, together with interest at the Expended Funds Rate plus two percent (2%).
		

		
			(b) (1) All funds advanced and expenses incurred by the Administrator pursuant to Section 4.05(a) of the Agreement and the Transaction Documents; (2) all other expenses incurred incident to the exercise by the Administrator of any rights and remedies pursuant to Section 4.04(a), Section 4.04(b), Article XIV or any other provisions of the Agreement, the other Transaction Documents

			Upon the occurrence and continuation of a Default, the Shipowner hereby authorizes and directs any party to a Contract and their respective successors and assigns to treat and regard the Administrator as the party entitled, in the Shipowner’s place and stead, to receive said Proceeds and amounts and to exercise all rights of the Shipowner with respect thereto; and said parties shall be fully protected in so treating and regarding the Administrator and shall be under no obligation to see to the application by the Administrator of any such Proceeds received by it. In addition to the rights granted to the Administrator hereunder, the Shipowner hereby further transfers and assigns to the Administrator by way of security any and all such Liens, financing statements or similar interests of the Shipowner attributable to its interest in the Earnings Collateral arising under or created by any statutory provision, judicial decision or otherwise.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 2.02. Account Debtors. No Person making payments to the Administrator at its request under the assignment contained herein shall have any responsibility to see to the application of any of such funds, and any party paying or delivering Proceeds or amounts to the Administrator under such assignment shall be released thereby from any and all liability to the Administrator and the Shipowner to the full extent and amount of all payments or Proceeds so delivered. Should the Administrator bring suit against any third party for collection of any amount or sums included within this Assignment (and the Administrator shall have the right to bring any such suit), it may sue either in its own name or in the name of the Shipowner, or both.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 2.03. Performance under Charters; No Duty of Inquiry. The Shipowner hereby undertakes that it shall punctually perform all of its obligations under all Contracts to which it is a party. It is hereby expressly agreed that, anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Shipowner shall remain liable under all Contracts to perform the obligations assumed by it thereunder, and the Administrator shall have no obligation or liability of any nature whatsoever under any Contract by reason of, or arising out of, this Assignment, nor shall the Administrator be required to assume or be obligated in any manner to perform or fulfill any obligation of the Shipowner under or pursuant to any Contract. Nothing in this Assignment shall be deemed or construed to create a delegation to or assumption by the Administrator, of the duties and obligations of the Shipowner under any Contract. All of the parties to any Contract shall continue to look to the Shipowner for performance of all covenants and other obligations and the satisfaction of all representations and warranties of the Shipowner thereunder, notwithstanding the rights granted to the Administrator hereunder and the assignment herein made or the exercise by the Administrator of any such rights hereunder or under applicable law. The Administrator shall not be required to make any payment or make any inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by the Administrator, or, unless and until indemnified to its satisfaction, to present or file any claim, or to take any other action to collect or enforce the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled hereunder or pursuant hereto at any time or times.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 2.04. No Modification of Obligations.

			Nothing in this Assignment is intended to be an acceptance of collateral in satisfaction of or in discharge of the Obligations.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 2.05. Affirmative Covenants. Until all of the Obligations have been fully and finally paid and the Agreement and the other Transactions Documents have been terminated, the Shipowner hereby covenants and agrees with the Administrator to:
		

		
			 
		

		
			(a)          promptly notify the Administrator in writing of the commencement and termination of any period during which any Vessel is requisitioned; and
		

		
			 
		

		
			(b)          during the continuance of a Default, use its best efforts to cause any counterparty to any Contract to execute a Consent and Agreement to this Assignment in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B and deliver such Consent and Agreement to the Administrator.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 2.06. Negative Pledge. The Shipowner does hereby warrant and represent that it has not assigned or pledged, and hereby covenants that it will not assign or pledge so long as this Assignment shall remain in effect, any of its right, title or interest in the whole or any part of the Earnings Collateral hereby assigned to anyone other than the Administrator, and it will not take or omit to take any action, the taking or omission of which might result in an alteration or impairment of the rights hereby assigned or any of the rights created in this Assignment.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 2.07. Attorney-in-Fact. The Administrator shall not be liable for any delay, neglect, or failure to effect collection of any Proceeds or to take any other action in connection therewith or hereunder; but the Administrator shall have the right, at its election, in the name of the Shipowner or otherwise, to prosecute and defend any and all actions or legal proceedings deemed advisable by the Administrator in order to collect such Proceeds and to protect the interests of the Administrator, and/or the Shipowner, with all costs, expenses and attorneys’ fees incurred in connection therewith being paid by the Shipowner. The Shipowner does hereby irrevocably appoint and constitute the Administrator as the Shipowner’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full power (in the name of the Shipowner or otherwise), to ask, require, demand, receive, compound, and give acquittance for any and all Proceeds, to endorse any checks or other instruments or orders in connection therewith, to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings which the Administrator may deem to be necessary or advisable in the premises, and to file, without the signature of the Shipowner, any and all financing statements or similar documents, other instruments, documents or agreements or renewals thereof arising from this Assignment which the Administrator may deem to be reasonably necessary or advisable in order to perfect or maintain the security interest granted hereby; provided, however, the Administrator shall not take any action pursuant to the power granted by this Section unless a Default shall have occurred and be continuing. Such appointment of the Administrator as attorney-in-fact is irrevocable and is coupled with an interest. The parties agree that the grant of the power of attorney set forth in this Section shall not be deemed to create any obligation on the part of the Administrator to take any one or more of the actions described herein.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 2.08. Application of Proceeds. All Proceeds collected or received by the Administrator pursuant to this Assignment during the existence and continuance of a Default shall be applied as provided in Section 14.04 of Annex C of the Agreement and, in the absence

			of the existence and continuance of a Default, shall be paid by the Administrator to Shipowner promptly following receipt thereof.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 2.09. Remedies Cumulative and Not Exclusive; No Waiver. Each and every right, power and remedy given herein, in the Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to the Administrator shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other right, power and remedy of the Administrator now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or by statute, and each and every right, power and remedy, whether herein given or otherwise existing, may be exercised from time to time, in whole or in part, and as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by the Administrator, and the exercise or the commencement of the exercise of any right, power or remedy shall not be construed to be a waiver of the right to exercise at the same time or thereafter any other right, power or remedy. Without limitation of the foregoing, during the continuation of a Default, the Administrator shall have the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC.  No delay or omission by the Administrator in the exercise of any right or power in the pursuance of any remedy accruing upon any breach or default by the Shipowner shall impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver of any such right, power or remedy or to be an acquiescence therein; nor shall the acceptance by the Administrator of any security or of any payment of or on account of any of the amounts due from the Shipowner to the Administrator and maturing after any breach or default or of any payment on account of any past breach or default be construed to be a waiver of any right to take advantage of any future breach or default or of any past breach or default not completely cured thereby.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 2.10. Invalidity. If any provision of this Assignment shall at any time for any reason be declared or decided to be invalid, void or otherwise inoperative by a court of competent jurisdiction, such declaration or decision shall not affect the validity of any other provision or provisions of this Assignment, or the validity of this Assignment as a whole. In the event that by reason of any law or regulation in force or to become in force, or by reason of a ruling of any court of competent jurisdiction, or by any other reason whatsoever, this Assignment is rendered either wholly or partly defective, the Shipowner shall furnish the Administrator with an alternative assignment or security and do all such other acts as are reasonably required in order to ensure and give effect to the full intent of this Assignment.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 2.11. Continued Security. It is declared and agreed that the security created by this Assignment shall be held by the Administrator as a continuing security for the payment of all moneys which may at any time and from time to time be or become payable by the Shipowner in connection with the Obligations and that the security so created shall not be satisfied by any intermediate payment or satisfaction of any part of the amount hereby secured and that the security so created shall be in addition to and shall not in any way be prejudiced or affected by any collateral or other security now or hereafter held by the Administrator for all or any part of the moneys hereby secured.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 2.12. Termination. The Administrator shall terminate this Assignment and release the Earnings Collateral subject to the provisions of Article XVI of Annex C of the Agreement and the relevant provisions of this Assignment. Except as may be expressly applicable pursuant to Section 9-620 of the UCC, no action taken or omission to act by the Administrator shall be deemed to constitute a retention of the Earnings Collateral in satisfaction of the Obligations or otherwise to be in full satisfaction of the Obligations, and the Obligations shall remain in full force and effect, until the Administrator and the Holder(s) shall have applied

			payments (including, without limitation, collections from any Earnings Collateral) towards the Obligations in the full amount then outstanding or until such subsequent time as is provided in the Agreement. If this Assignment has terminated and any payment actually received by the Administrator is subsequently invalidated, rescinded, declared to be fraudulent or preferential or set aside and is required to be repaid under any bankruptcy or other similar law, then this Assignment shall be reinstated and its provisions will continue in effect for the benefit of the Administrator and the holder(s) of the Administrator’s Note until such amounts are fully and finally paid in cash.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 2.13. Notices. Any notices or communications hereunder shall be made in accordance with Section 18.03 of Annex C of the Agreement.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 2.14. Waiver; Amendment. No amendment, modification, or waiver of any provision of this Assignment, and no consent with respect to any departure of the Shipowner therefrom, shall be effective unless the same is in writing executed by the Shipowner and the Administrator.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 2.15. Further Assurances.

As collateral security for the prompt and complete payment and performance when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Obligations, the Shipowner does hereby assign, transfer and convey to the Administrator, its successors and assigns, and does hereby grant to the Administrator, its successors and assigns, a first priority continuing security interest in, lien on, and right of setoff against, all policies and contracts of insurance, including, without limitation, the Shipowner’s rights under all entries in any protection and indemnity or war risks associations or clubs, which are from time to time taken out by or for the Shipowner in respect of the Vessel, its hull, machinery, freights, disbursements, profits or otherwise, and all the benefits thereof and all other rights of the Shipowner in respect thereof, including, without limitation, all claims of whatsoever nature, as well as return premiums (all of which are herein collectively called the “Insurances”), and in and to all moneys and claims for moneys in connection therewith and all proceeds and products of all of the foregoing, wherever located, whether now owned or at any time hereafter acquired by the Shipowner or in which the Shipowner now has or at any time in the future may acquire any right, title or interest (collectively, the “Collateral”).
		

		
			 
		

		
			In addition to the rights granted to the Administrator, the Shipowner hereby further transfers and assigns to the Administrator by way of security any and all such Liens, financing statements or similar interests of the Shipowner attributable to its interest in the Collateral arising under or created by any statutory provision, judicial decision or otherwise.

			ASSIGNMENT CONTAINED HEREIN, AGAINST ANY AND ALL LIABILITIES, ACTIONS, CLAIMS, JUDGMENTS, COSTS, CHARGES AND ATTORNEYS’ FEES RESULTING FROM THE DELIVERY OF SUCH PAYMENTS TO THE ADMINISTRATOR, AND ALL SUCH AMOUNTS TOGETHER WITH SUCH INTEREST THEREON SHALL BE PART OF THE OBLIGATIONS. THE INDEMNITY AGREEMENT CONTAINED IN THE PREVIOUS SENTENCE IS MADE FOR THE DIRECT BENEFIT OF AND SHALL BE ENFORCEABLE BY ALL SUCH PERSONS. Should the Administrator bring suit against any third party for collection of any amount or sums included within this Assignment (and the Administrator shall have the right to bring any such suit), it may sue either in its own name or in the name of the Shipowner, or both.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 2.03. Performance under Insurances; No Duty of Inquiry. The Shipowner hereby undertakes that it shall punctually perform all of its obligations under all Insurances pertaining to the Vessel to which it is a party. It is hereby expressly agreed that, anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Shipowner shall remain liable under all Insurances pertaining to the Vessel to perform the obligations assumed by it thereunder, and the Administrator shall have no obligation or liability of any nature whatsoever under any such Insurances (including, without limitation, any obligation or liability with respect to the payment of premiums, calls or assessments) by reason of, or arising out of, this Assignment, nor shall the Administrator be required to assume or be obligated in any manner to perform or fulfill any obligation of the Shipowner under or pursuant to any such Insurances. Nothing in this Assignment shall be deemed or construed to create a delegation to or assumption by the Administrator, of the duties and obligations of the Shipowner under any agreement or contract relating to the Vessel or the Insurances. All of the parties to any such Insurances or contracts shall continue to look to the Shipowner for performance of all covenants and other obligations and the satisfaction of all representations and warranties of the Shipowner thereunder, notwithstanding the rights granted to the Administrator hereunder or the exercise by the Administrator of any such rights hereunder or under applicable law. The Administrator shall not be required to make any payment or make any inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by the Administrator, or, unless and until indemnified to its satisfaction, to present or file any claim, or to take any other action to collect or enforce the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled hereunder or pursuant hereto at any time or times.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 2.04. No Modification of Obligations. Nothing herein contained shall modify or otherwise alter the obligation of the Shipowner to make prompt payment of all Obligations, including principal and interest owing thereon, when and as the same become due regardless of whether the Collateral is sufficient to pay the same and the rights provided in accordance with the foregoing assignment provision shall be cumulative of all other security of any and every character now or hereafter existing to secure payment of the Obligations. Nothing in this Assignment is intended to be an acceptance of collateral in satisfaction of or in discharge of the Obligations.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 2.05. Affirmative Covenants. Until all of the Obligations have been fully and finally paid and the Agreement and the other Transaction Documents have been terminated, the Shipowner hereby covenants and agrees with the Administrator to:

			(a)     do, cause to be done or permit to be done each and every act or thing which the Administrator may from time to time reasonably require to be done for the purpose of enforcing the Administrator’s rights under this Assignment and the Shipowner will allow its name to be used as and when required by the Administrator for that purpose; and
		

		
			 
		

		
			(b)     forthwith give notice in the form attached to this Assignment as Exhibit D of this Assignment, or cause its insurance brokers to give notice, of this Assignment to all insurers, underwriters, clubs and associations providing insurance in connection with the Vessel and procure that such notice is endorsed on all the policies and entries of insurances in respect of the Vessel and are endorsed to provide that the Administrator shall be named in a manner such that it is afforded the stature of additional insureds, as its interest may appear, and the Administrator shall be named loss payee.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 2.06. Negative Pledge. The Shipowner does hereby warrant and represent that it has not assigned or pledged, and hereby covenants that it will not assign or pledge so long as this Assignment shall remain in effect, any of its right, title or interest in the whole or any part of the Collateral hereby assigned to anyone other than the Administrator, and it will not take or omit to take any action, the taking or omission of which might result in an alteration or impairment of the rights hereby assigned or any of the rights created in this Assignment.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 2.07. Notices; Loss Payable Clauses.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(a)     All Insurances, except entries in protection and indemnity associations or clubs or insurances effected in lieu of such entries, relating to the Vessel shall contain a loss payable and notice of cancellation clause in the form attached to this Assignment as Exhibit B or in such other form as the Administrator may agree; and
		

		
			 
		

		
			(b)     All entries in protection and indemnity associations or clubs or insurances effected in lieu of such entries relating to the Vessel shall contain a loss payable and notice of cancellation clause in the form attached to this Assignment as Exhibit C or in such other form as the Administrator may agree.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 2.08. Attorney-in-Fact. The Administrator shall not be liable for any delay, neglect, or failure to effect collection of any proceeds or to take any other action in connection therewith or hereunder; but the Administrator shall have the right, at its election, in the name of the Shipowner or otherwise, to prosecute and defend any and all actions or legal proceedings deemed advisable by the Administrator in order to enforce this Assignment and to protect the interests of the Administrator and the holder(s) of the Administrator’s Note, and/or the Shipowner, with all costs, expenses and attorneys’ fees incurred in connection therewith being paid by the Shipowner. The Shipowner does hereby irrevocably appoint and constitute the Administrator as the Shipowner’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full power (in the name of the Shipowner or otherwise), to ask, require, demand, receive, compound, and give acquittance for any and all moneys and claims for moneys assigned hereby, to endorse any checks or other instruments or orders in connection therewith, to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings which the Administrator may deem to be necessary or advisable in the premises, and to file,

			without the signature of the Shipowner, any and all financing statements or similar documents, other instruments, documents or agreements or renewals thereof arising from this Assignment which the Administrator may deem to be reasonably necessary or advisable in order to perfect or maintain the security interest granted hereby; provided,  however, the Administrator shall not take any action pursuant to the power granted by this Section 2.08 unless a Default shall have occurred and be continuing. Such appointment of the Administrator as attorney-in-fact is irrevocable and is coupled with an interest. Nothing contained in this Section 2.08 shall be deemed or considered as creating any obligation on the part of the Administrator to take any of the actions described herein.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 2.09. Application of Proceeds. All moneys collected or received by the Administrator pursuant to this Assignment during the existence and continuance of a default shall be applied as provided in Section 14.04 of Annex C of the Agreement and, in the absence of the existence and continuance of a Default, shall be paid by the Administrator to Shipowner promptly following receipt thereof.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 2.10. Remedies Cumulative and Not Exclusive; No Waiver. Each and every right, power and remedy given herein, in the Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to the Administrator shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other right, power and remedy of the Administrator now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or by statute, and each and every right, power and remedy, whether herein given or otherwise existing, may be exercised from time to time, in whole or in part, and as often and in such order as may be deemed necessary by the Administrator, and the exercise or the commencement of the exercise of any right, power or remedy shall not be construed to be a waiver of the right to exercise at the same time or thereafter any other right, power or remedy. Without limitation of the foregoing, during the continuation of a Default, the Administrator shall have the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC. No delay or omission by the Administrator in the exercise of any right or power in the pursuance of any remedy accruing upon any breach or default by the Shipowner shall impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver of any such right, power or remedy or to be an acquiescence therein; nor shall the acceptance by the Administrator of any security or of any payment of or on account of any of the amounts due from the Shipowner to the Administrator and maturing after any breach or default or of any payment on account of any past breach or default be construed to be a waiver of any right to take advantage of any future breach or default or of any past breach or default not completely cured thereby.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 2.11. Invalidity. If any provision of this Assignment shall at any time for any reason be declared or decided to be invalid, void or otherwise inoperative by a court of competent jurisdiction, such declaration or decision shall not affect the validity of any other provision or provisions of this Assignment, or the validity of this Assignment as a whole. In the event that by reason of any law or regulation in force or to become in force, or by reason of a ruling of any court of competent jurisdiction, or by any other reason whatsoever, this Assignment is rendered either wholly or partly defective, the Shipowner shall furnish the Administrator with an alternative assignment or security and do all such other acts as are reasonably required in order to ensure and give effect to the full intent of this Assignment.

			SECTION 2.12. Continued Security. It is declared and agreed that the security created by this Assignment shall be held by the Administrator as a continuing security for the payment of all moneys which may at any time and from time to time be or become payable by the Shipowner in connection with the Obligations and that the security so created shall not be satisfied by any intermediate payment or satisfaction of any part of the amount hereby secured and that the security so created shall be in addition to and shall not in any way be prejudiced or affected by any collateral or other security now or hereafter held by the Administrator for all or any part of the moneys hereby secured.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 2.13. Termination. The Administrator shall terminate this Assignment and release the Collateral subject to the provisions of Article XVI of Annex C of the Agreement and the relevant provisions of this Assignment. Except as may be expressly applicable pursuant to Section 9-620 of the UCC, no action taken or omission to act by the Administrator shall be deemed to constitute a retention of the Collateral in satisfaction of the Obligations or otherwise to be in full satisfaction of the Obligations, and the Obligations shall remain in full force and effect, until the Administrator and the Holder(s) shall have applied payments (including, without limitation, collections from Collateral) towards the Obligations in the full amount then outstanding or until such subsequent time as is provided in the Agreement. If this Assignment has terminated and any payment actually received by the Administrator is subsequently invalidated, rescinded, declared to be fraudulent or preferential or set aside and is required to be repaid under any bankruptcy or other similar law, then this Assignment shall be reinstated and its provisions will continue in effect for the benefit of the Administrator until such amounts are fully and finally paid in cash.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 2.14. Notices. Any notices or communications hereunder shall be made in accordance with Section 18.03 of Annex C of the Agreement.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 2.15. Waiver; Amendment. No amendment, modification, or waiver of any provision of this Assignment, and no consent with respect to any departure of the Shipowner therefrom, shall be effective unless the same is in writing executed by the Shipowner and the Administrator.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 2.16. Further Assurances. The Shipowner agrees that at any time and from time to time, upon the written request of the Administrator, the Shipowner will promptly and duly execute and deliver any and all such further instruments and documents as the Administrator may deem desirable in obtaining the full benefits of this Assignment (including, without limitation, in connection with the perfection of the security interest created hereby) and of the rights and powers herein granted.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 2.17. Governing Law. This Assignment shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United States of America, including federal common law, and, absent applicable federal law, the laws of the Governing Law State, notwithstanding its conflict of laws rules.

			LOSS PAYABLE CLAUSE
		

		
			 
		

		
			Hull and Machinery (War Risks)
		

		
			 
		

		
			For any loss in excess of $500,000, underwriters shall make all payments hereunder directly to THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, represented by the Maritime Administrator of the Maritime Administration (the “Administrator”) pursuant to its instructions. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, unless otherwise required by the Administrator by notice to the underwriters stating that a default is continuing, although losses hereunder are payable to the Administrator, any loss (other than an actual or constructive total loss) with respect to a Vessel involving any damage to a Vessel, may be paid directly for the repair, salvage or other charges involved or, if Matson Navigation Company, Inc. (the “Shipowner”) shall have first fully repaired the damage or paid all of the salvage or other charges, may pay Shipowner as reimbursement therefor; provided,  however, that if such damage involves a loss in excess of $500,000, the underwriters shall not make such payment without first obtaining the written consent thereto of the Administrator.
		

		
			 
		

		
			In the event of the actual total loss or agreed, compromised or constructive total loss of a Vessel, payment shall be made to the Administrator, for deposit into an account designated for such purpose by the Administrator.
		

		
			 
		

		
			The Administrator shall be advised:
		

		
			 
		

		
			1.            at least 10 days before cancellation of this insurance may take effect;
		

		
			 
		

		
			2.            of any failure to renew any such insurance at least 10 days prior to the date of renewal thereof;
		

		
			 
		

		
			3.            of any act or omission or of any event of which the insurer has knowledge and which might invalidate or render unenforceable in whole or in part any such insurance; and
		

		
			 
		

		
			4.            of any default in the payment of any premium with respect to, or the material alteration of, any such insurances.

			Payment of any recovery in excess of $500,000 that Matson Navigation Company, Inc. (the “Shipowner”) is entitled to make out of the funds of the Insurer in respect of any liability, costs or expenses incurred by it shall be made to THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, represented by the Maritime Administrator of the Maritime Administration (the “Administrator”), and all recoveries shall thereafter be paid directly to the Administrator. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, unless otherwise required by the Administrator by notice to the underwriters stating that a default is continuing, although losses hereunder are payable to the Administrator, any loss under any insurance on a Vessel with respect to protection and indemnity risks may be paid directly to Shipowner to reimburse it for any loss, damage or expense incurred by it and covered by such insurance or to the person to whom any liability covered by such insurance has been incurred; provided,  however, that if any such payment is in excess of $500,000, the underwriters shall not make such payment without first obtaining the written consent thereto of the Administrator.
		

		
			 
		

		
			The Administrator shall be advised:
		

		
			 
		

		
			1.            at least 10 days before cancellation of this insurance may take effect;
		

		
			 
		

		
			2.            of any failure to renew any such insurance at least 10 days prior to the date of renewal thereof;
		

		
			 
		

		
			3.            of any act or omission or of any event of which the insurer has knowledge and which might invalidate or render unenforceable in whole or in part any such insurance; and
		

		
			 
		

		
			4.            of any default in the payment of any premium with respect to, or the material alteration of, any such insurances.

			GUARANTY AGREEMENT OF AFFILIATE GUARANTOR IN FAVOR OF THE UNITED STATES
		

		
			( “Affiliate Guaranty”)
		

		
			 
		

		
			THIS AFFILIATE GUARANTY (this “Affiliate Guaranty”) is made as of April 27, 2020, by Matson, Inc., a Hawaii corporation (the “Affiliate Guarantor”), to and in favor of THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA (the "United States"), represented by the Maritime Administrator of the Maritime Administration (the "Administrator"), pursuant to Chapter 537 of Title 46 of the United States Code (“Chapter 537”). Capitalized terms used herein, unless otherwise noted, have the respective meanings set forth in the Agreement, as hereinafter defined.
		

		
			 
		

		
			RECITALS:
		

		
			 
		

		
			A.           Matson Navigation Company, Inc., a Hawaii corporation (the "Shipowner") and the Administrator are parties to the Consolidated Agreement, Contract No. MA-14454, dated as of April 27, 2020 (the “Agreement”) and the other Transaction Documents;
		

		
			 
		

		
			B.           The Shipowner, in connection with the financing of the Vessels, on the date hereof, borrowed certain funds and created and authorized the issuance of the Note issued pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement and the Administrator issued the Guarantee of the Note.
		

		
			 
		

		
			C.           The Shipowner has, in consideration of the issuance of the Guarantee, issued and delivered, the Administrator’s Note to the Administrator.
		

		
			 
		

		
			D.           The Affiliate Guarantor is directly and materially interested in the financial success of the Shipowner, and maintains significant business relationships with the Shipowner, and this Affiliate Guaranty may be expected to benefit, directly or indirectly, the Affiliate Guarantor.
		

		
			 
		

		
			E.           The Administrator has required this Affiliate Guaranty from the Affiliate Guarantor as an integral part of the consideration offered by or on behalf of the Shipowner as a condition of the Administrator's decision to enter into the Agreement and to issue the Guarantee, and the Affiliate Guarantor has entered into this Affiliate Guaranty for the purpose of guaranteeing the Shipowner’s obligations to the Administrator under the Agreement, the Administrator's Note, the Assignment of Construction Contract, the Assignment of Earnings, the Assignment of Insurances, and the Mortgage (each, a “Matson Guaranteed Document” and collectively, the “Matson Guaranteed Documents”).
		

		
			 
		

		
			NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, and of other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the Affiliate Guarantor hereby agrees as follows:
		

		
			 
		

		
			
		

		
			


		 


			

					

						Annex K (Affiliate Guaranty) - relating to Contract No. MA-14454

			1.            Guaranty.
		

		
			 
		

		
			a)            The Affiliate Guarantor hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to the Administrator, regardless of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Matson Guaranteed Documents, or the obligations thereunder, and regardless of any present or future law or order of any government or any agency thereof purporting to reduce, amend or otherwise vary any obligation of the Shipowner or to vary the terms of payment, (i) that the Shipowner will promptly perform and observe every term and condition in the Matson Guaranteed Documents to be performed or observed by the Shipowner, and (ii) that all amounts stated to be payable or which become payable under the Matson Guaranteed Documents to the Administrator and other amounts which may be owing by the Shipowner to the Administrator under the Matson Guaranteed Documents now or hereafter, will be promptly paid in full when due whether at maturity or earlier by reason of acceleration or otherwise or, if now due, when payment thereof shall be demanded by the Administrator, together with interest and any and all legal and other costs and expenses paid or incurred in connection therewith by the Administrator as provided for in the Matson Guaranteed Documents, and, in the case of an extension or renewal, in whole or in part, the same will be promptly paid in cash or performed when due according to such extension or renewal. This is an irrevocable, absolute, completed, and continuing guarantee of payment and performance, and not a guarantee of collection. The Affiliate Guarantor shall be required to make said payments and/or cause the Shipowner to perform such obligations upon receipt of a written notice from the Administrator which states that the Shipowner has not promptly, completely or effectively made said payments or performed such obligations and is in Default.  The failure of the Affiliate Guarantor to receive such a written notice or the failure of the Administrator to send said notice shall not relieve the Affiliate Guarantor of its obligations under this Affiliate Guaranty.  The Affiliate Guarantor shall immediately pay to the Administrator or its designee in immediately available funds such payments guaranteed herein.
		

		
			 
		

		
			b)           The Affiliate Guarantor hereby consents and agrees that its obligations under this Affiliate Guaranty will not be discharged by any act or omission to act of any kind by the Administrator or any other person or any other circumstances whatsoever (including, but not limited to, any extension, rearrangement or renewal with respect to any indebtedness or other obligation of the Shipowner with or without notice to the Affiliate Guarantor, any waiver of any right of the Administrator under the terms of the Administrator's Note, the Agreement, the Mortgage or this Affiliate Guaranty, any release of security, any transfer or assignment of rights or obligations accruing to the Administrator under the Administrator's Note, the Agreement, the Mortgage or this Affiliate Guaranty, any corporate reorganization, dissolution, merger, acquisition of or by or other alteration of the corporate existence or structure of the Shipowner or the Affiliate Guarantor, discharge of the Shipowner in bankruptcy, the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Administrator's Note, the Agreement, the Mortgage or this Affiliate Guaranty or the absence of any action to enforce the obligations of the Shipowner) which might constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the Affiliate Guarantor; it being the intention of the Affiliate Guarantor that this Affiliate Guaranty be absolute, continuing and unconditional and the guarantee hereunder shall only be discharged by the payment in full of all sums or performance of the obligations so guaranteed hereunder.
		

		
			 
		

		
			c)            The Affiliate Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, in each case to the extent permitted by law:  (i) notice of any of the matters referred to in this Affiliate Guaranty and any action by the Administrator in reliance thereon; (ii) all notices which

			may be required by statute, rule of law or otherwise to preserve any rights against the Affiliate Guarantor hereunder, including without limitations, any demand, protest, proof of notice of non-payment of all sums payable under the Administrator's Note or any notice of any failure on the part of the Shipowner to perform or comply with any covenant, term or obligations of any Transaction Document or other agreement to which it is a party; (iii) any requirement for the enforcement, assertion or exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege under or with respect to the Mortgage, the Agreement or the Administrator's Note; (iv) any requirement of diligence; (v) any requirement that the Shipowner be joined as a party to any proceedings for the enforcement of any provision of this Affiliate Guaranty or that the Administrator proceed against any other guarantor executing this Affiliate Guaranty or any other guaranty agreement; (vi) any and all defenses to payment hereunder, except the defense of payment or performance already made; (vii) presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest and dishonor, notice of intent to accelerate and notice of acceptance; and (viii) the right to require the Administrator to pursue any remedy in the Administrator's power whatsoever.
		

		
			 
		

		
			d)           The Affiliate Guarantor hereby agrees that this Affiliate Guaranty shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment of any sum hereby guaranteed is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned by the Administrator, upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Shipowner, or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. The Affiliate Guarantor further agrees that if the maturity of any obligations guaranteed herein be accelerated by bankruptcy or otherwise, such maturity shall also be deemed accelerated for the purpose of this Affiliate Guaranty without demand or notice to the Affiliate Guarantor.
		

		
			 
		

		
			e)            Any amount payable hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction by reason of any counterclaim, set-off, deduction, abatement or otherwise.
		

		
			 
		

		
			f)            The Affiliate Guarantor shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and expenses) incurred in connection with the enforcement of the obligations of the Affiliate Guarantor under this Affiliate Guaranty.
		

		
			 
		

		
			g)           The Administrator's Note, the Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Matson Guaranteed Documents may not, without the consent of the Affiliate Guarantor, be amended, modified or endorsed in a way that has the effect of increasing the obligations of the Affiliate Guarantor.
		

		
			 
		

		
			h)           The Administrator may enforce the Affiliate Guarantor’s obligations hereunder without in any way first pursuing or exhausting any other rights or remedies which the Administrator may have against the Shipowner or any other person, firm or corporation or against any security the Administrator may hold.
		

		
			 
		

		
			i)            After a Default by the Shipowner under the Matson Guaranteed Documents and during the continuation thereof or until all amounts payable to the Administrator pursuant to the Administrator’s Note and the other Matson Guaranteed Documents have been paid in full, whichever occurs sooner, the Affiliate Guarantor may not enforce any right to receive payment and may not accept any payment from the Shipowner under any right of subrogation the Affiliate Guarantor may have or be entitled to claim against the Shipowner pursuant to this Guarantee.

			j)            In the event any action by the Shipowner, the management of the Shipowner, or by the Affiliate Guarantor results or would result in dissolution of the Shipowner pursuant to its Organizational Documents or governing law, the Affiliate Guarantor shall forthwith take all steps necessary to reform and reestablish the Shipowner.
		

		
			 
		

		
			2.            Administrator's Rights.  The Affiliate Guarantor authorizes the Administrator, without notice or demand and without affecting the Affiliate Guarantor’s liability hereunder, to take and hold security from any third party for the payment of this Affiliate Guaranty and/or any of the obligations guaranteed herein and exchange, enforce, waive and release any such security; and to apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as the Administrator in his discretion may determine; and to obtain a guarantee of any of the obligations guaranteed herein from any one or more persons, corporations or entities whomsoever and at any time or times to enforce, waive, rearrange, modify, limit or release such other persons, corporations or entities from their obligations under such guarantees.

The Affiliate Guarantor agrees that the duties, covenants, conditions, obligations and warranties of the Affiliate Guarantor in this Affiliate Guaranty shall be absolute and unconditional and shall be joint and several obligations with each such other guarantor and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, personal representatives, successors and assigns.

			c)            The execution, delivery and performance by the Affiliate Guarantor of this Affiliate Guaranty does not require the approval or consent of its shareholders or members or of any governmental authority and does not contravene the Affiliate Guarantor’s formation documents or any mortgage, indenture or other agreement binding upon it, or any law, regulation, order, judgment or decree applicable to the Affiliate Guarantor.
		

		
			 
		

		
			5.            Continuing Guarantee.  This Affiliate Guaranty is a continuing guarantee of payment and collectability and shall:

			Re:         [NAME OF SHIPOWNER AND TRANSACTION]
		

		
			 
		

		
			Dear [Insert Maritime Administrator’s Name]:
		

		
			We have acted as special counsel to _________, a __________ (the "Shipowner"), and ___________________, a _______________ (the “Affiliate Guarantor”) in connection with the execution and delivery of the Consolidated Agreement, Contract No. MA-_______, dated_____, as may be amended (the “Agreement”), by and among the Shipowner, the Affiliate Guarantor, and the United States of America, represented by Maritime Administrator of the Maritime Administration (the "Administrator"), and the other Transaction Documents.  Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein have the respective meanings set forth in the Agreement.
		

		
			In that connection, we have examined originals, or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of the Agreement and the other documents described in paragraph 6 hereof.  We have made such independent inquiry into the law and the facts as we have deemed necessary or appropriate for the purposes of this opinion. When in our professional opinion we deemed it appropriate, we have relied upon affidavits and certificates of corporate officers and government officials as to the existence of underlying facts, including, in particular, the Shipowner’s affidavit of citizenship dated the date hereof and the certificate of no liens on the Vessel of the Shipowner dated the date hereof.
		

		
			In expressing this opinion, please note that we are admitted to practice only in the State of___________, and we do not purport to be experts on the law of any jurisdiction other than the law of the [GOVERNING LAW STATE], and the federal laws of the United States.
		

		
			This opinion is also limited in the following respects: (a) any opinion concerning the legality, validity and binding effect of any agreement or instrument with respect to the Shipowner is based on the assumption that such agreement constitutes or will constitute a legal, valid and binding agreement of the other parties thereto; (b) with respect to any opinion pertaining to the enforceability of an agreement or instrument, no opinion is expressed as to the availability of any specific remedy in an action of an equitable nature that any court, other

			governmental authority or arbitrator may grant, impose or render; (c) we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, except that of the Shipowner, and the authenticity of all instruments submitted to us as originals and the conformity with the originals of all instruments submitted to us as copies; and (d) this opinion is limited, as to the enforceability of any agreement or instrument, by applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium or other similar laws of general application relating to or affecting the enforceability of creditors' rights from time to time in effect.
		

		
			Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:
		

		
			1.            The Shipowner is a [INSERT FORM OF ORGANIZATION] duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the [INSERT JURISDICTION OF ORGANIZATION OF SHIPOWNER], and is "a citizen of the United States" within the meaning of 46 U.S.C. § 50501, [including, without limitation, that a citizen of the United States owns at least a 75% interest, in the case of coastwise trade] for the purpose of owning the [INSERT VESSEL NAME], Official No. _____ (“Vessel”) in the coastwise trade of the United States, The Affiliate Guarantor is a [INSERT FORM OF ORGANIZATION] duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the [INSERT JURISDICTION OF ORGANIZATION OF AFFILIATE GUARANTOR.
		

		
			2.            The Shipowner has legal power and authority to own and operate the Vessel in the trade in which it is proposed to be operated.  The Affiliate Guarantor has the legal power and authority to conduct its business as presently conducted and to issue the Affiliate Guaranty.
		

		
			3.            The Shipowner is the sole owner of the whole of the Vessel, free and clear of all claims, liens, charges, rights in rem, mortgages, security interests or other encumbrances except the Mortgage and except for such claims, liens, charges, rights in rem, mortgages, security interests or other encumbrances created or expressly permitted by the Agreement. To the extent that this opinion relates to freedom and clearances of claims, liens, mortgages, or other encumbrances of any character on the Vessel, we have reasonably relied on the certificates as to such matters, dated the date hereof, from the Shipowner and the records of the United States Coast Guard.
		

		
			4.            The Collateral, as defined in the Agreement, has each been duly and validly granted and assigned by the Shipowner to the Administrator under the Agreement.
		

		
			5.            The Vessel has been duly documented in the name of the Shipowner under the laws of the United States of America, and the Mortgage as amended has been duly recorded with the National Vessel Documentation Center of the U.S. Coast Guard at 792 T J Jackson Drive, Falling Waters, West Virginia 25419 (the only office in which such recordation is necessary) and the Mortgage constitutes a first "Preferred Ship Mortgage" as to the Vessel under Chapter 313 of Title 46 of the United States Code having the effect and with the priority provided therein and no re-recording is presently required to maintain the preferred status of the Mortgage.
		

		
			6.            The Shipowner has full corporate power and authority and full power and authority under any applicable statute, law or governmental regulation to execute and deliver the Note and the Administrator’s Note issued on the date hereof and to enter into and carry out the

			terms of the Note Purchase Agreement, the Agreement, and the other Transaction Documents.  The Affiliate Guarantor has full corporate power and authority and full power and authority under any applicable statute, law or governmental regulation to execute and deliver the Agreement, the Affiliate Guaranty and the other documents executed by it in connection therewith.
		

		
			7.            The execution and delivery by the Shipowner and the Affiliate Guarantor of the agreements referred to in paragraph 6 hereof, consummation by the Shipowner and the Affiliate Guarantor of the transactions contemplated thereby and compliance by the Shipowner and the Affiliate Guarantor with all the provisions of each of the agreements to which the Shipowner or the Affiliate Guarantor is a party referred to in paragraph 6 will not conflict with, or result in a breach of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or (except as contemplated thereby) result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of the property or assets of the respective assets of the Shipowner or the Affiliate Guarantor  pursuant to the terms of, any indenture, mortgage, deed or trust, loan agreement or other agreement or instrument known to us to which the Shipowner or the Affiliate Guarantor is a party or by which the Shipowner or the Affiliate Guarantor is bound or to which any of its property or assets is subject (except as intended by the agreements executed in connection with the within transaction), nor will such action result in a violation of the provisions of the organizational documents of the Shipowner or the Affiliate Guarantor or any statute or any order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over the Shipowner, the Affiliate Guarantor or any of their respective properties.
		

		
			8.            Each and all of the agreements and instruments referred to in paragraph 6 to which the Shipowner or the Affiliate Guarantor is a party have been duly authorized by the Shipowner and the Affiliate Guarantor, as the case may be, and said agreements and instruments have been duly executed and delivered and constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Shipowner and the Affiliate Guarantor enforceable against the Shipowner and the Affiliate Guarantor according to their respective terms.
		

		
			9.            The Note, including the Guarantee, constitute exempted securities under Section 3(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 (15 U.S.C. § 77c(a)(2)), as amended, and, accordingly, it is not necessary to register the Note or the Guarantee under said Act.
		

		
			10.          No consent, approval, authorization, order, registration or qualification of or with, or notice to, any court or any governmental agency or body, of which we have knowledge, is required for the issuance of the Note or the Administrator’s Note or the consummation by the Shipowner or the Affiliate Guarantor of the other transactions contemplated by any of the agreements or instruments referred to in paragraph 6 hereof, except such as have been duly obtained, effected, or given and such as may be required under state securities or Blue Sky laws in connection with the purchase of the Note.
		

		
			11.          No taxes are or will be payable in connection with the issuance and sale of the Note to FFB, the purchase of the Note by FFB, or the execution or delivery of the Note Purchase Agreement.

All filings and recordings (including, without being limited to, all filings of financing statements under the Uniform Commercial Code) under the laws of the  UCC State have been duly effected to perfect the collateral security interests granted by the Agreement in the Collateral to make such collateral security interests valid and enforceable under the laws of the UCC State and such security interests constitute first perfected security interests under the UCC entitled to the benefits thereunder and having the effect and with the priority provided therein. No periodic refiling or periodic re-recording is required to protect and preserve such security interests, except that continuation statements must be filed within six (6) months prior to the expiration of the effective periods following the respective dates of filing of the financing statements originally filed in the UCC State and subsequent continuation statements must be filed within six (6) months prior to the expiration of such subsequent effective period.
		

		
			13.          The Agreement provides sufficient control to Treasury to perfect the Administrator’s security interest in the deposits credited thereto.  Upon the delivery of any deposits to Treasury, the Administrator will thereafter have security interests in said deposits credited thereto which will constitute first perfected security interests under those laws. No filing is required to protect and preserve such security interest.
		

		
			The opinions expressed in paragraphs 12 and 13 are qualified to the extent that: (a) we have reasonably relied on the searches of copies of which are attached, as to the fact that there had been no prior filings, except in favor of the Administrator; (b) the Administrator's remedies under the Agreement are exercised in a commercially reasonable manner; and (c) our opinion that the Administrator's security interests as first priority is rendered in reliance on the aforesaid searches and on the assumption that all funds or other property deposited by the Shipowner with Treasury are free of any prior lien or security interest.
		

		
			14.          The Note issued on the date hereof has been duly executed by the Shipowner and duly issued under the Note Purchase Agreement and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Shipowner enforceable in accordance with its terms and is entitled to the benefit of the Guarantee.
		

		
			15.          To the best of our knowledge, after due inquiry, there is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or threatened before any court, administrative agency, arbitrator or governmental body against, or which directly relates to, the Shipowner or the Affiliate Guarantor which concerns the documents referred to in paragraph 6 or which, if adversely determined, could adversely affect the compliance by the Shipowner or the Affiliate Guarantor with any of the foregoing documents, agreements and instruments to which it is a party.

The computation of the Reserve Fund Net Income Deposit shall be made on the basis of information available to the Shipowner at the time of each such deposit.  Each Reserve Fund Net Income Deposit shall be subject to adjustments from time to time in the event and to the extent that the same would be required or permitted by mistakes or omissions, additional information becoming available to the Shipowner, or judicial or administrative determinations made subsequent to the making of such deposits.

As set forth in the definitions of “Supplemental Financial Tests of Affiliate Guarantor” and “Supplemental Financial Tests of Shipowner”, for all purposes of this Agreement, the failure of either the Affiliate Guarantor or of the Shipowner to maintain a Qualifying Credit Agreement shall not constitute a failure to meet the Supplemental Financial Tests of the Affiliate Guarantor or Supplemental Financial Tests of Shipowner unless such failure shall continue for a period of more than thirty consecutive (30) Business Days.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 6.06.  [Deleted/Reserved]

If the Administrator approves the Request, the Administrator shall promptly withdraw the moneys from the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund and make payment in accordance with the terms of the Request.  The Administrator shall have the right to disapprove any Request for withdrawal from the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund and, in the event of a Default under this Agreement, the right to apply all or part of the proceeds in the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund to all amounts due and owing the Administrator under this Agreement.  In that event, the Administrator may retain and offset any or all of the cash in the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund, and any Income Realized on the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund, as part of the Administrator’s recovery against the Shipowner.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(b)  From time to time, moneys in the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund shall be withdrawn upon receipt by the Administrator from the Shipowner of a Request for payment (specifying the Person or Persons to be paid, the amount of such payment, and the bank account to which the Shipowner requests that the payment be made) executed by the Shipowner and consented to by the Administrator; provided that, at the time of such Request, the Shipowner and the Affiliate Guarantor shall each have met the Supplemental Financial Tests of Shipowner and the Supplemental Financial Tests of Affiliate Guarantor, respectively, for four consecutive fiscal quarters.

			such a payment fails to repay such amounts within fifteen (15) days of receipt of notice from the Administrator to the Shipowner requesting such repayment (or if the Shipowner shall have failed to make a timely Reserve Fund Net Income Deposit in violation of Section 6.04 of this Agreement), the Shipowner shall, upon Request from the Administrator, pay into the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund, the amount remaining due from such Equity Interest Holders plus interest at the Expended Funds Rate plus two percent (2%) from the date the monies were initially paid (or from the date the Reserve Fund Net Income Deposit should have been made).  It is understood and agreed that any payment made by the Shipowner pursuant to this Section 6.08 shall not release or extinguish the obligation of the Equity Interest Holders to repay improperly received funds; provided that such funds repaid by the Equity Interest Holders shall not be paid into the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund to the extent the Shipowner has already made payments into the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund pursuant to this Section 6.08.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 6.09.  Late Charges Reserve Subfund and Deficiency Deposits.   (a) On the date of the Initial Advance (as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement), the Administrator shall establish the Late Charges Reserve Subfund as a subfund of the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund with Treasury and the Shipowner shall deposit the Late Charges Reserve Subfund Deposit with the Administrator who shall deposit such proceeds into the Late Charges Reserve Subfund.  The Administrator shall have the sole right to make withdrawals from the Late Charges Reserve Subfund.  The Late Charges Reserve Subfund shall be held and disbursed by the Administrator to pay any Late Charges.  Provided no Default has occurred, the Administrator shall release to the Holder entitled to receive any Late Charges sufficient funds from the Late Charges Reserve Subfund to cover such Late Charges as and when the same become due and payable.  Payments on the Note received after 12:00 pm Washington, D.C. time on the due date shall incur Late Charges.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(b) At any time and from time to time that the amount in the Late Charges Reserve Subfund shall be less than an amount reasonably determined by the Administrator to be sufficient to cover thirty (30) days of hypothetical Late Charges based upon a daily rate selected by the Administrator or the FFB, then, upon notice of such deficiency by the Administrator to the Shipowner, the Shipowner shall immediately make any additional deposit of cash into the Late Charges Reserve Subfund equal to such deficiency.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 6.10.  Capital Construction Fund in Lieu of Chapter 537 Reserve Fund.   If the Shipowner has established a Capital Construction Fund, at any time when a Reserve Fund Net Income Deposit would otherwise be required to be made into the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund pursuant to this Article VI, and the Shipowner elects to make such deposits to the Capital Construction Fund, the Shipowner must enter into an agreement, satisfactory to the Administrator, providing that all such deposits of assets therein will be security (the “CCF Security Amount”) to the United States in lieu of the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund. The Reserve Fund Net Income Deposit requirements of the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund and of this Agreement will be deemed satisfied by deposits of equal amounts in the Capital Construction Fund, and withdrawal of the CCF Security Amount will be subject to the Administrator’s prior consent. If, for any reason, the Capital Construction Fund terminates prior to the payment of the Note, the Administrator's Note and all other amounts due under or secured by this Agreement or the Mortgage, the CCF Security Amount will be deposited or re-deposited in the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund to the extent of the amounts otherwise then required to be in the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund.

The Administrator’s rights to draw upon the Chapter 537 Reserve Fund shall not be exclusive of any other rights of the Administrator under the Transaction Documents, and each and every right shall be cumulative and concurrent, and may be enforced separately, successively or together, and may be exercised from time to time as often as the Administrator may deem necessary.

Any and all securities or other Financial Assets credited to a Deposit Fund shall be registered in the name of the Administrator, endorsed to the Administrator and in no case will any Financial Asset credited to any Deposit Fund be registered in the name of the Shipowner, be payable to the order of the Shipowner or specially endorsed to the Shipowner.  All taxes, if any, applicable to the acquisition or sale of Eligible Investments under this Section shall be paid by the Shipowner from its separate funds.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 7.07. Improper Disbursements From Deposit Funds.

			(o)          When Required Insurance is not Commercially Available.

During the time the insurance required by this Section 11.10 is not commercially available or is available at a cost the Shipowner considers uneconomical, the failure to maintain such insurance required by this Section 11.10 shall not constitute a Security Default provided that the Shipowner continues to keep the Vessels insured on terms that are commercially available and with coverages the Shipowner considers to be as close as commercially available to the requirements of this Section 11.10.  If at any time after availing itself of the provisions of this Section 11.10(o) the insurance required by this Section 11.10 again

			(e)          Related Party Investments. Make any material investments in the securities of any Related Party, except to the extent required by binding agreements in effect prior to the time this covenant becomes effective;

			(h)          Acquisitions of Assets.

Pay, in whole or in part, any indebtedness subordinated to the Note or to any other Chapter 537 obligations except payment obligations pursuant to binding agreements entered into prior to the time this covenant becomes effective; provided, however, it is agreed that any debt (including in each case any guarantee thereof) under a Qualifying Credit Agreement or under unsecured long term notes either incurred pursuant to agreements in effect as of the date hereof and/or outstanding at the time this covenant becomes effective are not considered subordinated for purposes of this covenant and thus the prepayment thereof will not be prohibited by this covenant;

			(n)          Exceptions.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the covenants set forth in Section 12.02(a) (“Withdrawals”), (c) (“Dividends”), and (g) (“Compensation”) shall not apply if there is no Default that has occurred and is continuing under this Agreement regardless of whether the Shipowner does not satisfy the Supplemental Financial Tests of Shipowner, or the Affiliate Guarantor does not satisfy the Supplemental Financial Tests of Affiliate Guarantor.  As set forth in the definitions of “Supplemental Financial Tests of Affiliate Guarantor” and “Supplemental Financial Tests of Shipowner”, for all purposes of this Agreement, the failure of either the Affiliate Guarantor or of the Shipowner to maintain a Qualifying Credit Agreement shall not constitute a failure to meet the Supplemental Financial Tests of the Affiliate Guarantor or Supplemental Financial Tests of Shipowner unless such failure shall continue for a period of more than thirty (30) consecutive Business Days.
		

		
			 
		

		
			SECTION 12.03 Other Covenants.

In any notice furnished pursuant to this Section, the Shipowner will expressly state in a conspicuous manner that the notice is required by this Agreement and, if applicable, indicate that additional filings of financing statements or other notices are necessary for the purposes of continuing the perfection and maintaining the priority of the Administrator’s security interest in the Collateral and any other collateral granted pursuant to the Transaction Documents, in each case other than the Deposit Funds;

			releases the Shipyard from its obligations to comply with the provisions of the Construction Contract or any applicable laws, treaties, conventions, rules and regulations, except for the settlement of warranty claims and outstanding deficiencies; provided that, the Administrator’s prior consent shall not be necessary, but prompt notice to the Administrator shall be given for (1) any mandatory or regulatory change to the Construction Contract as a result of any requirements of  any governmental agency, or (2) any non-mandatory changes that Shipyard and Shipowner desire to make which do not exceed, with respect to any item of the Vessel’s Construction, one percent (1%) of the Vessel’s contract price and which do not, in the aggregate, cause the Vessels Contract Price to be increased more than five (5%) percent or the delivery and completion date of the Vessel to be extended more than ten (10) days. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no change shall be made in the general dimensions and/or characteristics of the Vessels which changes the capacity of each of the Vessels to perform as originally intended by the Construction Contract without the Administrator’s prior consent.  The Administrator will nonetheless retain its authority to review work done under a change order to ascertain whether the work should be included in Actual Cost and whether the price charged is fair and reasonable.
