CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Matters  discussed in this document may constitute  forward-looking  statements.
The  Private  Securities  Litigation  Reform Act of 1995  provides  safe  harbor
protections for  forward-looking  statements in order to encourage  companies to
provide prospective information about their business. Forward-looking statements
include  statements  concerning plans,  objectives,  goals,  strategies,  future
events or performance,  and underlying  assumptions and other statements,  which
are other than statements of historical facts.

CalPetro Tankers (IOM) Limited (the "Company")  desires to take advantage of the
safe harbor provisions of the Private  Securities  Litigation Reform Act of 1995
and is including this  cautionary  statement in connection with this safe harbor
legislation.  This document and any other written or oral  statements made by us
or on our behalf may  include  forward-looking  statements,  which  reflect  our
current views with respect to future events and financial performance. The words
"believe," "except," "anticipate," "intends," "estimate," "forecast," "project,"
"plan,"  "potential,"  "will," "may," "should," "expect" and similar expressions
identify forward-looking statements.

The  forward-looking   statements  in  this  document  are  based  upon  various
assumptions,  many of which  are  based,  in  turn,  upon  further  assumptions,
including without limitation,  management's  examination of historical operating
trends,  data  contained  in our  records  and other data  available  from third
parties.  Although we believe that these  assumptions were reasonable when made,
because these  assumptions are inherently  subject to significant  uncertainties
and  contingencies  which are  difficult or impossible to predict and are beyond
our  control,  we cannot  assure you that we will  achieve or  accomplish  these
expectations, beliefs or projections.

In addition to these important  factors and matters  discussed  elsewhere herein
and in the documents  incorporated by reference herein,  important factors that,
in our view,  could  cause  actual  results  to  differ  materially  from  those
discussed  in the  forward-looking  statements  include  the  strength  of world
economies and currencies,  general market conditions,  including fluctuations in
charterhire rates and vessel values,  changes in demand in the tanker market, as
a result of changes  in OPEC's  petroleum  production  levels and world wide oil
consumption and storage, changes in the company's operating expenses, changes in
governmental  rules and regulations or actions taken by regulatory  authorities,
potential  liability  from pending or future  litigation,  general  domestic and
international political conditions,  potential disruption of shipping routes due
to accidents or political  events,  and other important  factors  described from
time to time in the reports  filed by CalPetro  Tankers  (IOM)  Limited with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.

Risk Factors

Please note: In this section, "we", "us" and "our" all refer to the Company.

The  cyclical  nature of the tanker  industry  may lead to  volatile  changes in
charter rates, which may adversely affect our earnings

Our vessel (the "Vessel") is currently  operated  under a bareboat  charter (the
"Charter")  to Chevron  Transport  Corporation  (the "Initial  Charterer").  The
Charter  has a term  expiring  on April 1,  2015  subject  to the fact  that the
Initial  Charterer  has an option to  terminate  the  charter  earlier  on three
specified  dates.  The first option to terminate is on April 1, 2005 and then on
each of the  three  subsequent  two-year  anniversaries  thereof.  Notice of the
intention to exercise the option to terminate the Charter must be given at least
twelve  months in  advance  for the first  Optional  Termination  Date and seven
months in advance for subsequent Optional Termination Dates.

If the tanker industry, which has been cyclical, is depressed in the future when
our vessel's  charter expires or is terminated,  our earnings and available cash
flow may  decrease.  Our ability to recharter  our vessel on the  expiration  or
termination  of its  current  charter and the charter  rates  payable  under any
renewal or replacement  charters will depend upon, among other things,  economic
conditions in the tanker market. Fluctuations in charter rates and vessel values
result from changes in the supply and demand for tanker  capacity and changes in
the supply and demand for oil and oil products.

Because our Charter may be  terminated  in April 2005,  we may incur  additional
expenses and not be able to recharter our Vessel profitably

CalPetro  Tankers (IOM) Limited was  incorporated  in the Isle of Man on May 13,
1994 together with three other companies:  CalPetro Tankers (Bahamas I) Limited,
CalPetro  Tankers  (Bahamas  II)  Limited and  CalPetro  Tankers  (Bahamas  III)
Limited, each of which is incorporated in the Bahamas,  (together the "Owners").
Each of the Owners was organized as a special purpose company for the purpose of
acquiring  one of four Suezmax oil tankers from Chevron  Transport  Corporation.
California Petroleum Transport  Corporation,  a Delaware corporation,  acting as
agent  on  behalf  of  the  Companies,   issued  as  full  recourse  obligations
$167,500,000  Serial First Preferred Mortgage Notes and $117,900,000 8.52% First
Preferred Mortgage Notes due 2015 (together the "Notes").  The proceeds from the
sale of the Notes were applied by way of long-term loans,  being Serial Loans in
respect of the Serial First  Preferred  Mortgage Notes and Term Loans in respect
of the  First  Preferred  Mortgage  Notes due  2015,  to the  Owners to fund the
acquisition of the Vessels from the Chevron Transport  Corporation.  The Company
was allocated  $51,830,000 of the Serial Loans and $29,842,000 of the Term Loans
and acquired its Vessel, the SIRIUS VOYAGER (ex CHEVRON MARINER).

Chevron  Transport  Corporation has its first option to terminate its Charter on
April  1,  2005  and on  each of the  three  subsequent  two-year  anniversaries
thereof. Chevron Transport Corporation has the sole discretion to exercise these
options and will not owe any fiduciary or other duty to the holders of the Notes
in deciding  whether to exercise the  termination  options,  and the charterer's
decision may be contrary to our interests or those of the holders of the Notes.

We cannot  predict at this time any of the factors  that the  Initial  Charterer
will  consider in deciding  whether to exercise any of its  termination  options
under the  Charter.  It is likely,  however,  that the Initial  Charterer  would
consider a variety of factors,  which may include whether a vessel is surplus or
suitable  to  the  Initial  Charterer's  requirements  and  whether  competitive
charterhire rates are available in the open market at that time.

In the event Chevron Transport  Corporation does terminate the Charter,  we will
attempt to arrange a replacement  charter,  or may sell the Vessel.  Replacement
charters may include  shorter-term time charters and employing the Vessel on the
spot  charter  market  (which is subject to  greater  fluctuation  than the time
charter  market).  Any replacement  charter may bring us lower charter rates and
would likely  require us to incur greater  expenses which may reduce the amounts
available, if any, to pay principal and interest on the Notes.

We operate in the highly  competitive  international  tanker  market which could
affect our position at the end of our current  Charter and if Chevron  Transport
Corporation terminates its Charter earlier

The  operation  of tanker  vessels  and  transportation  of crude and  petroleum
products is an extremely competitive business. Competition arises primarily from
other tanker owners, including major oil companies as well as independent tanker
companies,  some  of  whom  have  substantially  greater  resources  than we do.
Competition  for the  transportation  of oil and oil products can be intense and
depends on price,  location,  size, age,  condition and the acceptability of the
tanker and its  operators  to the  charterers.  During the term of our  existing
Charter  with  Chevron  Transport  Corporation  we are not  exposed  to the risk
associated with this  competition.  At the end of our current Charter and in the
event that Chevron Transport Corporation terminates the charter in April 2005 or
at any subsequent optional  termination date, we will have to compete with other
tanker  owners,  including  major oil  companies as well as  independent  tanker
companies for charters. Due in part to the fragmented tanker market, competitors
with  greater   resources   could  enter  and  operate   larger  fleets  through
acquisitions  or  consolidations  and may be able to  offer  better  prices  and
fleets,  which could result in our achieving lower revenues from our Suezmax oil
tanker.

Compliance  with  environmental  laws or  regulations  may adversely  affect our
earnings  and  financial  conditions  at the end of the  existing  Charter or if
Chevron Transport Corporation terminates its Charter prior to that time

Regulations  in the various states and other  jurisdictions  in which our Vessel
trades affect our business.  Extensive and changing environmental laws and other
regulations,  compliance with which may entail significant  expenses,  including
expenses for ship modifications and changes in operating procedures,  affect the
operation of our Vessel.  Although Chevron Transport  Corporation is responsible
for all operational  matters and bears all these expenses during the term of our
current  Charter,  these  expenses  could have an adverse effect on our business
operations at any time after the  expiration or termination of the Charter or in
the event Chevron Transport Corporation fails to make a necessary payment.

We may not have  adequate  insurance  in the  event  existing  charters  are not
renewed

There  are a  number  of risks  associated  with the  operation  of  ocean-going
vessels, including mechanical failure,  collision,  property loss, cargo loss or
damage and  business  interruption  due to  political  circumstances  in foreign
countries,  hostilities  and labour strikes.  In addition,  the operation of any
vessel is subject to the inherent possibility of marine disaster,  including oil
spills and other environmental  mishaps, and the liabilities arising from owning
and  operating  vessels  in  international  trade.  Under the  Charter,  Chevron
Transport  Corporation  bears all risks  associated  with the  operation  of our
Vessel including the total loss of the Vessel. However, we cannot assure holders
of the Notes that we will adequately  insure against all risks at the end of the
Charter or in the event the Charter is terminated.  We may not be able to obtain
adequate insurance coverage at reasonable rates for our Vessel in the future and
the insurers may not pay particular claims.

We are highly dependent on Chevron Transport Corporation and Chevron Corporation

We are highly dependent on the due performance by Chevron Transport  Corporation
of its obligations under the Charter and by its guarantor,  Chevron Corporation,
of  its  obligations  under  its  guarantee.  A  failure  by  Chevron  Transport
Corporation or Chevron  Corporation to perform their obligations could result in
our inability to service the Serial and Term Loans.  If the Notes holders had to
enforce the  mortgages  securing the Notes,  they may not be able to recover the
principal and interest owed to them.

We may not be able to pay down our debt in the future, which could result in the
loss of our vessel

We currently  must dedicate a large portion of our cash flow from  operations to
satisfy our debt service obligations.  Our ability to pay interest on, and other
amounts  due in respect  of, our Serial and Term Loans will depend on our future
operating  performance,  prevailing economic conditions and financial,  business
and  other  factors,  many of which  are  beyond  our  control.  There can be no
assurance  that our cash  flow and  capital  resources  will be  sufficient  for
payment of our  indebtedness  in the  future.  If we are  unable to service  our
indebtedness  or obtain  additional  financing,  as  needed,  this  could have a
material adverse effect on the holders of the Notes.

Governments  could  requisition our vessels during a period of war or emergency,
resulting in a loss of earnings

A government  could  requisition for title or seize the Vessel.  Requisition for
title occurs when a government  takes control of a vessel and becomes her owner.
Also, a government could  requisition the Vessel for hire.  Requisition for hire
occurs when a government  takes control of a vessel and effectively  becomes her
charter at dictated charter rates. Generally, requisitions occur during a period
of war or  emergency.  Government  requisition  of the Vessel  would  negatively
impact our revenues.

The  Notes may not be as liquid as other  securities  with  established  trading
markets, which may affect the value of the Notes and your ability to trade them

The Notes are not listed on any  national  securities  exchange or traded on the
NASDAQ National Market and have no established trading market. Consequently, the
Notes  could  trade at prices  that may be higher or lower than their  principal
amount or  purchase  price,  depending  on many  factors,  including  prevailing
interest  rates,  the market for similar notes and  warrants,  and our financial
performance.  The placement agents for the Notes currently make a market for the
Notes,  but are not obligated to do so and may  discontinue  their market making
activity at any time. In addition,  their market  making  activity is subject to
the limits  imposed by the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. We cannot assure
you that an active  trading  market  will exist for the Notes or that any market
for the Notes will be liquid.

Substantial  leverage  and debt  service  could  affect our  ability to grow and
service our debt obligations

We are highly leveraged.  As of December 31, 2002, we had $45.5 million in total
indebtedness outstanding and stockholders' equity of $1.6 million. The degree to
which we are leveraged could have important  consequences for the holders of the
Notes, including:

--our  ability to obtain  additional  financing  for  working  capital,  capital
expenditures, acquisitions or general corporate purposes may be limited;

--we must dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to the
payment of  interest  on our Serial and Term Loans and any future  indebtedness,
which reduces the funds available to us for other purposes;

--we may have trouble  withstanding  competitive  pressures  and  responding  to
changing business conditions;

--we may be more  vulnerable  than  others in the event of a downturn in general
economic conditions or in our business; and

--we may be more  highly  leveraged  than  other  tanker  owners  with  which we
compete, which may put us at a competitive disadvantage.

We have a limited business purpose which limits our flexibility

The  activity  of the  Company  is  limited  to  engaging  in  the  acquisition,
disposition, ownership, and chartering of a Suezmax oil tanker. During the terms
of our charter with Chevron Transport Corporation we expect that the only source
of operating  revenue from which we may pay principal and interest on the Serial
Loans and Term Loans will be from this charter.

Item 4. Information on the Company

The Company

CalPetro  Tankers (IOM) Limited (the "Company") was  incorporated in the Isle of
Man on May 13,  1994  together  with three  other  companies:  CalPetro  Tankers
(Bahamas I) Limited,  CalPetro Tankers (Bahamas II) Limited and CalPetro Tankers
(Bahamas III) Limited,  each of which is incorporated  in the Bahamas  (together
the "Owners"). Each of the Owners was organized as a special purpose company for
the purpose of acquiring one of four oil tankers (each a "Vessel",  together the
"Vessels") from Chevron Transport  Corporation.  California  Petroleum Transport
Corporation,  a Delaware  corporation,  acting as agent on behalf of the Owners,
issued as full recourse obligations $167,500,000 Serial First Preferred Mortgage
Notes and $117,900,000  8.52% First Preferred  Mortgage Notes due 2015 (together
the  "Notes").  The  proceeds  from the sale of the Notes were applied by way of
long-term  loans,  being Serial  Loans in respect of the Serial First  Preferred
Mortgage Notes and Term Loans in respect of the First  Preferred  Mortgage Notes
due 2015, to the Owners to fund the  acquisition of the Vessels from the Chevron
Transport Corporation. The Company was allocated $51,830,000 of the Serial Loans
and  $29,842,000  of the Term Loans and acquired its Vessel,  the SIRIUS VOYAGER
(ex CHEVRON MARINER), as described below. The Company will engage in no business
other than the ownership and chartering of its Vessel and  activities  resulting
from or incidental to such ownership and chartering.

The Company is wholly owned by California Tankers Investments Limited, a company
organized  under  the  laws of the  Bahamas,  which  is in turn a  wholly  owned
subsidiary of CalPetro Holdings Limited, an Isle of Man company.

On May 12,  1998,  ownership of CalPetro  Holdings  Limited was  transferred  to
Independent Tankers  Corporation,  a Cayman Islands company ("ITC"). On the same
date,  all of the issued and  outstanding  shares of ITC were sold to  Frontline
Ltd. ("Frontline"), a publicly listed Bermuda company.

Pursuant to a share  purchase  agreement  dated December 23, 1998, as amended on
March 4, 1999,  Frontline  sold,  effective  July 1, 1999, all of the issued and
outstanding  shares of ITC to Hemen Holding Limited, a Cyprus company ("Hemen").
Hemen is the principal  shareholder of Frontline and is indirectly controlled by
Mr. John Fredriksen, the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Frontline.

Overview of the Business

The Company's  Vessel is a 150,000  deadweight tonne ("dwt") Suezmax oil tanker,
called the SIRIUS VOYAGER (ex CHEVRON MARINER),  which was acquired from Chevron
Transport  Corporation.  Suezmax tankers are  medium-sized  vessels ranging from
approximately  120,000 to 200,000 dwt, and of maximum length,  breadth and draft
capable of passing  fully  loaded  through the Suez  Canal.  The Vessel has been
chartered back to Chevron Transport Corporation. The Charter has a term expiring
on April 1, 2015,  subject to the Initial  Charterer's  right to  terminate  the
Initial Charter on certain specified dates. The Initial Charterer is principally
engaged in the marine transportation of oil and refined petroleum products.  The
Initial  Charterer's  primary  transportation  routes are from the Middle  East,
Indonesia,  Mexico, West Africa and the North Sea to ports in the United States,
Europe,  the United Kingdom and Asia.  Chevron Transport has advised the Company
that it expects to use the Vessel worldwide as permitted under the Charter.  The
obligations of the Initial Charterer under the Charter are guaranteed by Chevron
Corporation,  a major  international  oil company,  pursuant to a guarantee (the
"Chevron  Guarantee").  The  Initial  Charterer  is  an  indirect,  wholly-owned
subsidiary of Chevron.

The Vessel is a  double-hull  oil carrier of  approximately  150,000 dwts and is
presently registered under the Marshall Islands flag. The Vessel was constructed
under the  supervision  of the  Initial  Charterer  and  designed to the Initial
Charterer's   specifications   to  enhance  safety  and  reduce   operating  and
maintenance costs,  including such features as high performance  rudders,  extra
steel (minimal use of high tensile  steels),  additional fire safety  equipment,
redundant power generation equipment,  extra coating and electrolytic  corrosion
monitoring and protection systems,  additional crew quarters to facilitate added
manning  and  double-hull  design  patented  by  one  of  Chevron  Corporation's
subsidiaries.  The  builder of the  SIRIUS  VOYAGER  (ex  CHEVRON  MARINER)  was
Ishikawajima do Brasil Estaleiros S.A.

The Management

On March 31,  1999,  P.D.Gram & Co.  A.S.  resigned  as Manager  and Barber Ship
Management  resigned as Technical Advisor. On the same date each was replaced by
Frontline Ltd, pursuant to an assignment of the Management Agreement.

The Initial  Charterer may elect to terminate  the Initial  Charter on specified
termination  dates  commencing  in 2005.  If the  Charter is  terminated  by the
Initial  Charterer,  the Manager  (Frontline),  acting on behalf of the Company,
will attempt to find an  acceptable  replacement  charter for the Vessel.  If an
acceptable  replacement  charter is commercially  unavailable,  the Manager will
solicit bids for the sale or recharter of the Vessel.  The Manager's  ability to
obtain an acceptable  replacement  charter,  to sell the Vessel or recharter the
Vessel will depend on market rates for new and used vessels,  both of which will
depend on the supply of and demand for tanker  capacity for oil  transportation,
and the advantages or  disadvantages  of the Vessel  compared with other vessels
available at the time.

The International Tanker Market

International sea borne oil and petroleum products  transportation  services are
mainly provided by two types of operator: major oil company captive fleets (both
private  and  state-owned)  and  independent  shipowner  fleets.  Both  types of
operators  transport oil under  short-term  contracts  (including  single-voyage
"spot  charters") and long-term  time charters with oil companies,  oil traders,
large oil consumers,  petroleum product producers and government  agencies.  The
oil companies own, or control through long-term time charters, approximately one
third of the current world tanker capacity,  while independent  companies own or
control the balance of the fleet. The oil companies use their fleets not only to
transport their own oil, but also to transport oil for third-party charterers in
direct  competition with independent  owners and operators in the tanker charter
market.

The oil  transportation  industry has historically been subject to regulation by
national authorities and through international  conventions.  Over recent years,
however,  an  environmental  protection  regime has  evolved  which could have a
significant impact on the operations of participants in the industry in the form
of increasingly  more stringent  inspection  requirements,  closer monitoring of
pollution-related  events, and generally higher costs and potential  liabilities
for the owners and operators of tankers.

In order to benefit from economies of scale,  tanker  charterers  will typically
charter the largest  possible  vessel to transport  oil or products,  consistent
with port and canal  dimensional  restrictions  and optimal cargo lot sizes. The
oil tanker fleet is generally  divided  into the  following  five major types of
vessels, based on vessel carrying capacity: (i) ULCC-size range of approximately
320,000  to  450,000  dwt;  (ii)  VLCC-size  range of  approximately  200,000 to
320,000;  (iii) Suezmax-size range of approximately 120,000 to 200,000 dwt; (iv)
Aframax-size range of approximately 60,000 to 120,000 dwt; and (v) small tankers
of less than approximately 60,000 dwt. ULCCs and VLCCs typically transport crude
oil in long-haul trades, such as from the Arabian Gulf to Rotterdam via the Cape
of Good Hope.  Suezmax tankers also engage in long-haul crude oil trades as well
as in medium-haul  crude oil trades,  such as from West Africa to the East Coast
of the United States.  Aframax-size  vessels generally engage in both medium-and
short-haul  trades of less than  1,500  miles and carry  crude oil or  petroleum
products.  Smaller tankers mostly transport  petroleum products in short-haul to
medium-haul trades.

The  shipping   industry  is  highly   cyclical,   experiencing   volatility  in
profitability,  vessel  values and charter  rates.  In  particular,  freight and
charterhire rates are strongly  influenced by the supply and demand for shipping
capacity.

The factors  affecting  the supply and demand for tanker  vessels are outside of
our control, and the nature, timing and degree of changes in industry conditions
are  unpredictable.  The  factors  that  influence  demand for  tanker  capacity
include:

     -    demand for oil and oil products;

     -    global and regional economic conditions;

     -    the distance oil and oil products are to be moved by sea; and

     -    changes in sea borne and other transportation patterns

The factors that influence the supply of tanker capacity include:

     -    the number of newbuilding deliveries;

     -    the scrapping rate of older vessels; and

     -    the number of vessels that are out of service.

Tanker values have generally experienced high volatility.  The fair market value
of oil tankers,  including the vessel,  can be expected to fluctuate,  depending
upon general  economic and market  conditions  affecting the tanker industry and
competition from other shipping companies, types and sizes of vessels, and other
modes of  transportation.  In  addition,  as  vessels  grow  older,  they may be
expected to decline in value.  These factors will affect the value of the vessel
at the termination or expiration of the current charter.

The  shipping   industry  is  highly   cyclical,   experiencing   volatility  in
profitability,  vessel  values and charter  rates.  In  particular,  freight and
charterhire rates are strongly  influenced by the supply and demand for shipping
capacity. The charter rates for Suezmax tankers started to decline in the second
half of 2001 as a  result  of a  general  slowdown  in the  global  economy  and
reduction of OPEC oil  production.  The negative  trend  continued into 2002 and
rates remained below USD 20,000 per day through a large part of the year.  Rates
finally  started to improve at the  beginning  of the 4th  quarter and ended the
year at above USD 50,000 per day. In spite of the rate  improvement  in the last
quarter average time charter equivalent spot earnings for the year came out just
below USD  20,000  per day  compared  to just over USD  30,000  per day in 2001.
Several  factors  contributed  to  improving  rates in the late part of the year
including  increased  seasonal demand and increased oil consumption in the Asian
region,  but the main  reason for the rate spike in the last  months of the year
was the strike in Venezuela. The loss of exports from Venezuela, especially into
the United States,  required replacement oil from more distant sources resulting
in increased  tonnage demand.  The strong market  continued in January 2003. The
weak market in 2001 and 2002  resulted in scrapping  of 48 elderly  Suezmaxes in
the two years.

There is no guarantee  that Suezmax  rates would be  sufficient to meet the debt
service  required if the  bareboat  charters  entered  into with Chevron are not
extended. Spot market rates are volatile and generally linked to global economic
development and especially demand for oil but also to political events affecting
oil producing countries.

Inspection by Classification Society

Every   commercial   vessel's  hull  and  machinery   must  be  "classed"  by  a
classification society authorized by its country of registry. The classification
society ensures that a vessel is constructed and equipped in accordance with the
International  Maritime  Organization (the "IMO")  regulations and the Safety of
Life at Sea Convention.

A vessel must be inspected  by a surveyor of the  classification  society  every
year ("Annual Survey"),  every two years ("Intermediate  Survey") and every four
years ("Special Survey"). Each vessel is also required to be dry docked every 30
to 60 months  for  inspection  of the  underwater  parts of the  vessel.  If any
defects are found,  the  classification  surveyor will issue a  "recommendation"
which has to be acted upon,  and the defect must be rectified  by the  shipowner
within a prescribed time limit.  At the Special  Survey,  the vessel is examined
thoroughly,  including an  inspection  to determine  the  thickness of the steel
plates in various  parts of the  vessel,  and repairs  may be  recommended.  For
example,  if the  thickness  of the steel  plates is found to be less than class
requirements,  steel renewals will be prescribed. A one-year grace period may be
granted by the  classification  society to the shipowner  for  completion of the
Special Survey. If the vessel experiences  excessive wear and tear,  substantial
amounts  of money  may have to be spent  for  steel  renewals  to pass a Special
Survey.  In lieu of the Special Survey every four years (five years, if grace is
given), a shipowner has the option of arranging with the classification  society
for the vessel's hull or machinery to be on a continuous  survey cycle,  whereby
every  part of the  vessel  is  surveyed  within a  five-year  cycle.  Insurance
underwriters  make it a condition  of  insurance  coverage  for the vessel to be
"classed" and "class maintained" and the failure of a vessel to be "classed" and
"class maintained" may render such a vessel unusable.

The Vessel  will be  maintained  during the term of the  Charter by the  Initial
Charterer in accordance with good commercial  maintenance practice  commensurate
with other vessels in the Initial  Charterer's  fleet of similar size and trade,
as required by the Charter. The Charter requires the Initial Charterer to return
the Vessel on  termination  of the  Charter  "in  class"  under the rules of the
American  Bureau of  Shipping  (or  another  classification  society  previously
approved by the Company). In addition,  the Company has the right to inspect the
Vessel and to require surveys upon redelivery, and the Initial Charterer will be
responsible for making or compensating the Company for certain necessary repairs
in connection with such redelivery.

Insurance

The operation of any ocean-going vessel carries an inherent risk of catastrophic
marine disasters, environmental mishaps, cargo and property losses or damage and
business   interruptions   caused  by  adverse  weather  and  ocean  conditions,
mechanical failures,  human error,  political action in various countries,  war,
terrorism, piracy, labour strikes and other circumstances or events. Pursuant to
the Initial Charter,  the Vessel may be operated through the world in any lawful
trade for which the Vessel is suitable, including carrying oil and its products.
In the past,  political  conflicts in many regions,  particularly in the Arabian
Gulf, have included attacks on tankers, mining of waterways and other efforts to
disrupt  shipping in the area.  Vessels  trading in such  regions have also been
subject to acts of terrorism and piracy. In addition,  the carriage of petroleum
products  is subject to the risk of  spillage  and  leakage.  Any such event may
result in increased costs or the loss of revenues or assets, including a Vessel.

Under the  Charter,  the Initial  Charterer is entitled to  self-insure  against
marine  and war  risks  relating  to the  Vessel  and  against  protections  and
indemnity  risks  relating  to the Vessel  during the term of the  Charter  and,
accordingly, purchasers of the Notes cannot rely on the existence of third-party
insurance.  There can be no assurance that all risks will be adequately  insured
against,  that any  particular  loss will be covered or that the Company will be
able to procure adequate insurance coverage at commercially  reasonable rates in
the future.  In particular,  stricter  environmental  regulations  may result in
increased costs for, or the lack of availability or, insurance against the risks
of environmental damage or pollution.

The Initial Charterer will, pursuant to the Charter,  indemnify the Company from
damages  arising  from  a  failure  to  maintain  any  financial  responsibility
requirements  whether  relating to oil or other  pollution  damage.  The Initial
Charterer  will also  indemnify  the  Company to the extent  losses,  damages or
expenses are incurred by the Company  relating to oil or other pollution  damage
as a result of the operation of the Vessel by the Initial Charterer.

Environmental and Other Regulations

International  conventions and national, state and local laws and regulations of
the  jurisdictions  where our tanker  operates  or is  registered  significantly
affect the ownership and operation of our tanker. We believe we are currently in
substantial  compliance  with  applicable   environmental  and  regulatory  laws
regarding the ownership and operation of our tanker.  However,  because existing
laws may change or new laws may be  implemented,  we cannot predict the ultimate
cost of complying with all applicable  requirements or the impact they will have
on the resale value or useful lives of our tanker.  Future  non-compliance could
require us to incur substantial costs or to temporarily suspend operation of our
tanker.

We believe  the  heightened  environmental  and quality  concerns  of  insurance
underwriters,  regulators and  charterers are leading to greater  inspection and
safety  requirements on all vessels and creating an increasing demand for modern
vessels that are able to conform to the  stricter  environmental  standards.  We
maintain high  operating  standards for our tanker that  emphasizes  operational
safety,  quality maintenance,  continuous training of our crews and officers and
compliance  with  United  States and  international  regulations.  Our tanker is
subject to scheduled and  unscheduled  inspections by a variety of  governmental
and  private  entities,   including  local  port   authorities,   classification
societies,  flag state  administration  or country of registry,  and charterers,
particularly terminal operators and major oil companies,  which conduct frequent
vessel inspections.  Each of these entities may have unique requirements that we
must comply with.

Environmental Regulation--IMO.

The United Nation's  International  Maritime  Organization,  or IMO, has adopted
regulations that set forth pollution prevention  requirements for tankers. These
regulations,  which have been  implemented  in many  jurisdictions  in which our
tanker operates, provide, in part, that:

     o    25-year  old  tankers  must  be of  double-hull  construction  or of a
          mid-deck design with double-sided construction, unless:

          (1)  they have wing  tanks or  double-bottom  spaces  not used for the
               carriage  of oil which  cover at least  30% of the  length of the
               cargo tank section of the hull or bottom; or

          (2)  they are capable of hydrostatically balanced loading, which means
               that they are loaded in such a way that if the hull is  breached,
               water flows into the tanker,  displacing  oil upwards  instead of
               into the sea

     o    30-year old tankers must be of  double-hull  construction  or mid-deck
          design with double-sided construction.

Also under IMO  regulations,  a tanker must be of double-hull  construction or a
mid-deck design with double-sided construction, or be of another approved design
ensuring the same level of protection against oil pollution, if the tanker:

     o    is the  subject  of a  contract  for a major  conversion  or  original
          construction on or after July 6, 1993;

     o    commences a major  conversion or has its keel laid on or after January
          6, 1994; or

     o    completes a major conversion or is a newbuilding delivered on or after
          July 6, 1996.

The IMO recently  adopted  regulations that require the phase-out of most single
hull tankers by 2015 or earlier,  depending on the age of the vessel and whether
or not it complies with requirements for protectively located segregated ballast
tanks.  Under these new  regulations,  which became effective in September 2002,
the maximum  permissible  age for tankers  after 2007 will be 26 years.  The new
regulations also provide for increased inspection and verification requirements.
Our tanker is double hulled and therefore complies with the new IMO regulations.

The IMO's  International  Safety  Management Code, or ISM Code, also affects our
operations. The ISM Code requires the party with operational control of a vessel
to develop a safety  management  system that includes,  among other things,  the
adoption  of  a  safety  and  environmental   protection  policy  setting  forth
instructions  and  procedures  for operating its vessels  safely and  describing
procedures for responding to emergencies.  Our vessel manager is certified as an
approved ship manager under the ISM Code.

The  ISM  Code  requires  that  vessel  operators  obtain  a  safety  management
certificate for each vessel they operate.  This certificate evidences compliance
by a vessel's  management  with ISM Code  requirements  for a safety  management
system. No vessel can obtain a certificate unless its manager has been awarded a
Document  of  Compliance,  issued by each flag  state,  under the ISM Code.  Our
tanker has received its safety management certificate.

Non-compliance  with the ISM Code and  other IMO  regulations  may  subject  the
vessel  owner  or a  bareboat  charterer  to  increased  liability,  may lead to
decreases in available insurance coverage for affected vessels and may result in
a tankers denial of access to, or detention in, some ports.  Both the U.S. Coast
Guard  and  European  Union  authorities  have  indicated  that  vessels  not in
compliance with the ISM Code by the applicable deadlines will be prohibited from
trading in U.S. and European Union ports, as the case may be.

The IMO continues to review and introduce new  regulations.  It is impossible to
predict what additional  regulations,  if any, may be passed by the IMO and what
effect, if any, such regulations might have on the operation of oil tankers.  As
a result of the oil spill in November  2002 from the loss of the m.t.  Prestige,
it is likely that more  stringent  maritime  safety rules will be imposed by the
IMO and  other  regulatory  agencies  in the  future.  The m.t.  Prestige  was a
26-year-old  single  hulled  tanker  owned and operated by a company that is not
affiliated with us.

Environmental Regulation--OPA/CERCLA

The U.S. Oil Pollution Act of 1990, or OPA,  established an extensive regulatory
and liability regime for environmental protection and cleanup of oil spills. OPA
affects  all owners  and  operators  whose  vessels  trade with the U.S.  or its
territories or possessions,  or whose vessels operate in the waters of the U.S.,
which  include the U.S.  territorial  waters and the two hundred  nautical  mile
exclusive  economic zone of the U.S. The Comprehensive  Environmental  Response,
Compensation  and Liability Act, or CERCLA,  which also impacts our  operations,
applies to the discharge of hazardous substances whether on land or at sea.

Under OPA,  vessel  owners,  operators and bareboat or "demise"  charterers  are
"responsible parties" who are liable regardless of fault,  individually and as a
group, for all containment  costs,  clean-up costs and for other damages arising
from oil spills from their  vessels.  These other damages may include  injury to
natural  resources and real and personal  property,  loss of subsistence  use of
natural resources,  the loss of taxes,  rents,  royalties,  profits and earnings
capacity   resulting  from  an  oil  spill  and  the  cost  of  public  services
necessitated by an oil spill. These  "responsible  parties" are not liable under
OPA if the spill  results  solely from the act or omission of a third party,  an
act of God or an act of war. OPA limits a responsible  party's  liability to the
greater of $1,200 per gross ton or $10 million per vessel over 3,000 gross tons,
subject to adjustment for inflation.

CERCLA,  which applies to owners and operators of vessels,  contains a liability
regime  similar to OPA and provides for  cleanup,  removal and natural  resource
damages.  Liability under CERCLA is limited to the greater of $300 per gross ton
or $5  million.  These  limits of  liability  do not apply,  however,  where the
incident is caused by violation of applicable U.S. federal safety,  construction
or operating  regulations,  or by the  responsible  party's gross  negligence or
wilful  misconduct.  These limits do not apply if the responsible party fails or
refuses to report the incident or to co-operate  and assist in  connection  with
the  substance  removal  activities.  OPA and CERCLA each  preserve the right to
recover damages under existing law, including maritime tort law. We believe that
we are in  substantial  compliance  with OPA,  CERCLA and all  applicable  state
regulations in the ports where our tanker will call.

OPA requires  owners and operators of vessels to establish and maintain with the
Coast Guard evidence of financial responsibility sufficient to meet the limit of
their  aggregate  potential  strict  liability  under OPA and CERCLA.  Under the
regulations,  evidence  of  financial  responsibility  may  be  demonstrated  by
insurance,  surety bond,  self-insurance or guaranty. Under OPA regulations,  an
owner or operator of more than one tanker must demonstrate evidence of financial
responsibility  for the entire  fleet in an amount  equal only to the  financial
responsibility  requirement of the tanker having the greatest maximum  liability
under OPA/CERCLA.  Owners or operators of tankers operating in the waters of the
U.S.  must also file  vessel  response  plans  with the Coast  Guard,  and their
tankers are required to operate in  compliance  with their Coast Guard  approved
plans.

Under  OPA,  with  limited  exceptions,  all newly  built or  converted  tankers
operating in U.S. waters must be built with double-hulls.  Existing vessels that
do not comply with the double-hull requirement must be phased out over a 20-year
period  beginning  in 1995  based on size,  age and place of  discharge,  unless
retrofitted  with  double-hulls.   Notwithstanding  the  phase-out  period,  OPA
currently permits existing single-hull tankers to operate until the year 2015 if
their operations  within U.S. waters are limited to discharging at the Louisiana
Offshore  Oil  Port or  unloading  with the aid of  another  vessel,  a  process
referred to as  "lightering,"  within  authorized  lightering zones more than 60
miles offshore.

Environmental Regulation--Other

Although the United States is not a party to these  conventions,  many countries
have  ratified and follow the  liability  plan adopted by the IMO and set out in
the International Convention on Civil Liability for Oil Pollution Damage of 1969
and the  Convention  for the  Establishment  of an  International  Fund  for Oil
Pollution of 1971. Under these conventions, and depending on whether the country
in which the damage results is a party to the 1992 Protocol to the International
Convention on Civil Liability for Oil Pollution  Damage,  a vessel's  registered
owner is strictly liable for pollution  damage caused in the territorial  waters
of a  contracting  state by  discharge  of  persistent  oil,  subject to certain
complete  defences.  Under an amendment  that will come into effect  November 1,
2003 for vessels of 5,000 to 140,000 gross tons (a unit of  measurement  for the
total  enclosed   spaces  within  a  vessel),   liability  will  be  limited  to
approximately  $6.1 million plus $858 for each additional  gross ton over 5,000.
For  vessels  of  over  140,000  gross  tons,   liability  will  be  limited  to
approximately  $122.1 million. The current maximum amount is approximately $81.2
million.  The right to limit  liability  is  forfeited  under the  International
Convention on Civil Liability for Oil Pollution Damage where the spill is caused
by the  owner's  actual  fault and under  the 1992  Protocol  where the spill is
caused by the owner's  intentional or reckless conduct.  In jurisdictions  where
the International Convention on Civil Liability for Oil Pollution Damage has not
been adopted,  various legislative schemes or common law governs,  and liability
is  imposed  either  on the  basis  of  fault  or in a  manner  similar  to that
convention.  We believe that our P&I insurance  covers the  liability  under the
plan adopted by the IMO.

The European Union is  considering  legislation  that would:  (1) ban manifestly
sub-standard vessels (defined as those over 15 years old that have been detained
by port  authorities at least twice in a six month period) from European  waters
and create an obligation of port states to inspect vessels posing a high risk to
maritime safety or the marine  environment;  (2) provide the European Commission
with greater authority and control over classification societies,  including the
ability to seek to suspend or revoke the authority of negligent  societies;  and
(3)  accelerate  the phasing in of  double-hull  tankers on the same schedule as
that required  under OPA. The European  Union  adopted a legislative  resolution
confirming an accelerated  phase-out  schedule for  single-hull  tankers in line
with the schedule adopted by the IMO. Italy announced a ban of single-hull crude
oil tankers over 5,000 dwt from most Italian ports, effective April 2001.

In addition, most U.S. states that border a navigable waterway have enacted laws
that impose strict  liability for clean-up  costs and damages  resulting  from a
discharge  of oil or a release of a hazardous  substance.  As  permitted by OPA,
these state laws may provide for unlimited  liability  for oil spills  occurring
within their boundaries.

Organisational Structure

As described  above, and also in Item 7. Major  Shareholders,  and Related Party
Transactions,  the Company is a wholly owned  subsidiary of  California  Tankers
International  Limited, a company organized under the laws of the Bahamas, which
is a wholly-owned  subsidiary of ITC. Hemen  ultimately  controls the Company as
described in more detail in Item 4.

Property, Plants and Equipment

Other than the Vessel described above, the Company does not have any property.

Item 5.  Operating and Financial Review and Prospects

Operating results

Year ended December 31, 2002 compared with the year ended December 31, 2001

Total Revenues

Finance lease  interest  income for the year ended December 31, 2002 amounted to
$3,856,000,  compared  with  $4,282,000  for the year ended  December  31, 2001.
Interest  income  has  fallen  in line  with  expectations.  As the value of the
finance  lease falls on an annual  basis,  so does the interest  received on the
finance leases.

Expenses

Interest  payable on the Term Loans and the Serial Loans  amounted to $3,824,000
for the year ended December 31, 2002. The  amortization of discount on loans for
the period amounted to $74,000. The Company amortises the discount over the life
of the Term and  Serial  Loans.  The  corresponding  figures  for the  period to
December 31, 2001 were $4,213,000 and $73,000,  respectively.  Interest  payable
has fallen in line with expectations, with interest payable falling in line with
the loan outstanding in the year.

Interest  payable on the Term Loans and the Serial Loans  amounted to $4,213,000
for the year ended December 31, 2001. The  amortization of discount on loans for
the period amounted to $73,000. The Company amortises the discount over the life
of the Term and  Serial  Loans.  The  corresponding  figures  for the  period to
December 31, 2000 were $4,600,000 and $73,000,  respectively.  Interest  payable
has fallen in line with expectations, with interest payable falling in line with
the loan outstanding in the year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As set forth above,  revenues from the Initial Charter are sufficient to pay the
Company's obligations under the Term and Serial Loans. The Initial Charterer may
elect to terminate  the Charter on specified  termination  dates  commencing  in
2005. If the Charter is terminated by the Initial Charterer, the Manager, acting
on behalf of the Company, will attempt to find an acceptable replacement charter
for  the  Vessel.   If  an  acceptable   replacement   charter  is  commercially
unavailable,  the Manager  will  solicit  bids for the sale or  recharter of the
Vessel. The Manager's ability to obtain an acceptable  replacement  charter,  to
sell the Vessel or recharter  the Vessel will depend on market rates for new and
used  vessels,  both of which will depend on the supply of and demand for tanker
capacity for oil  transportation,  and the  advantages or  disadvantages  of the
Vessel compared with other vessels available at the time.

Critical Accounting Policies

The  Company's  principal  accounting  policies  are  described in Note 2 to the
financial  statements,  which is included in Item 18 of this Form 20-F. The most
critical accounting policies include:

     o    Accounting for financing leases as lessor

     o    Revenue and expense recognition

Trend Information

It is expected that as the Vessel ages, the charger  income will be reduced.  In
line with this  effect,  the  interest  payable  on the  Serial  and Term  Loans
financing the ship will also be reduced as the principal is repaid.  Thus, there
is a  consistent  reduction in income,  expenses and net assets  employed by the
Company.  However the ompany will continue to remain  profitable  and cash flows
will be  adequate to service  the debt load.  Clearly  there will always be some
uncertainty within the business because of the nature of the tanker business but
over the past life of the company  the  charter  rates have been at a level such
that the  company  has  made  profits.  The  structure  of debt and  charterhire
agreements, including provision for early termination, provides the company with
a clear future.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In June 2001, the U.S. Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS
No. 141, "Business  Combinations,"  (SFAS 141) which requires the application of
the purchase  method in  accounting  for  business  combinations  including  the
identification  of the  acquiring  enterprise  for  each  transaction.  SFAS 141
applies to all  business  combinations  initiated  after  June 30,  2001 and all
business  combinations  accounted for by the purchase methods that are completed
after June 30,  2001.  The  adoption of SFAS No. 141 by the Company did not have
any impact on the Company's financial statements.

In June 2001,  the FASB  issued  SFAS No. 142,  "Goodwill  and Other  Intangible
Assets" (SFAS 142). SFAS 142 applies to all acquired  intangible  assets whether
acquired singly, as part of a group, or in a business combination.  The adoption
of SFAS 142 by the  Company  on  January  1, 2002 did not have any impact on the
Company's financial statements.

In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for the Asset Retirement
Obligations"  (SFAS 143).  Under SFAS 143, an entity  shall  recognize  the fair
value of a liability for an asset  retirement  obligation in the period in which
it is  incurred  if a  reasonable  estimate  of fair  value  can be  made.  If a
reasonable  estimate  of fair  value  cannot  be made in the  period  the  asset
retirement  obligation  is incurred,  the liability  shall be recognized  when a
reasonable  estimate of fair value can be made.  Upon initial  recognition  of a
liability  for an asset  retirement  obligation,  an entity shall  capitalize an
asset  retirement  cost  by  increasing  the  carrying  amount  of  the  related
long-lived  asset  by  the  same  amount  as  the  liability.  An  entity  shall
subsequently  allocate that asset  retirement cost to expense using a systematic
and rational  method over its useful life.  SFAS No. 143 is effective for fiscal
years  beginning  after December 15, 2002.  Management  does not expect that the
adoption  of SFAS 143 on  January  1, 2003 will  have a  material  effect on the
Company's financial statements.

In October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of  Long-Lived  Assets" (SFAS 144).  SFAS 144 requires that  long-lived
assets that are to be disposed of by sale be measured at the lower of book value
or fair value less costs to sell.  Additionally,  the standard expands the scope
of  discontinued  operations  to  include  all  components  of  an  entity  with
operations  that can be  distinguished  from the rest of the  entity and will be
eliminated from the ongoing operations of the entity in a disposal  transaction.
The  adoption  of SFAS 144 on  January  1,  2002 did not have any  impact on the
Company's financial statements.

In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation 45, "Guarantor's Accounting and
Disclosure  Requirements  for  Guarantees,   Including  Indirect  Guarantees  of
Indebtedness  of Others" (FIN 45). Fin 45 elaborates on the existing  disclosure
requirements  for most  guarantees,  including loan  guarantees  such as standby
letters  of  credit.  It also  clarifies  that at the  time a  company  issues a
guarantee,  the company must recognize an initial  liability for the fair value,
or market  value,  of the  obligations  it assumes  under the guarantee and must
disclose that information in its interim and annual financial  statements..  The
initial  recognition and initial  measurement  provisions apply on a prospective
basis to  guarantees  issued or modified  after  December 31,  2002.  Management
believes that adoption of the recognition  and measurement  provisions of FIN 45
will not have a material impact on its financial statements.

In January 2003, the FASB issued  Interpretation 46,  "Consolidation of Variable
Interest  Entities" (FIN 46). FIN 46 requires a variable  interest  entity to be
consolidated  by a company if that  company is subject to a majority of the risk
of loss from the variable interest entity's  activities or entitled to receive a
majority  of  the  entity's   residual   returns  or  both.  The   consolidation
requirements of FIN 46 apply  immediately to variable  interest entities created
after January 31, 2003. The consolidation  requirements  apply to older entities
in the first  fiscal  year or interim  period  beginning  after  June 15,  2003.
Certain of the disclosure  requirements apply in all financial statements issued
after  January 31, 2003,  regardless  of when the variable  interest  entity was
established.  Management  believes  that  adoption  of FIN 46  will  not  have a
material impact on its financial statements.

responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the  United  States of  America.  Those  standards  require  that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain  reasonable  assurance  about  whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a
test basis,  evidence  supporting  the amounts and  disclosures in the financial
statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant  estimates  made by  management,  as well as evaluating  the overall
financial  statement  presentation.   We  believe  that  our  audits  provide  a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion,  the financial  statements  referred to above present fairly, in

CalPetro Tankers (IOM) Limited
Notes to the Financial Statements

1.   Basis of Preparation

The  Company,  was  incorporated  in the Isle of Man on May 13,  1994 with three
other entities:  CalPetro Tankers (Bahamas I) Limited, CalPetro Tankers (Bahamas
II)  Limited  and  CalPetro  Tankers  (Bahamas  III)  Limited,  each of which is
incorporated  in the  Bahamas.  Each of the  entities  (the  "Owners")  has been
organized as a special  purpose company for the purpose of acquiring one of four
oil tankers (each a "Vessel",  together the  "Vessels")  from Chevron  Transport
Corporation (the "Initial Charterer") and for which long-term charter agreements
have been signed  with the Initial  Charterer.  California  Petroleum  Transport
Corporation  acting  as agent on behalf of the  Owners  issued as full  recourse
obligations  Term Mortgage Notes and Serial  Mortgage Notes (the Serial and Term
Loans),  and  subsequently  loaned  the  proceeds  to the  Owners  to  fund  the
acquisition of the Vessels from the Initial Charterer.

The  charter  agreements  with the  Initial  Charterer  are  expected to provide
sufficient  payments to cover the Owners'  obligations under the Serial and Term
Loans due to California Petroleum Transport  Corporation.  The Initial Charterer
can  terminate  a charter at  specified  dates  prior to the  expiration  of the
charter,  provided  it  provide  notification  at least 12 months  prior so such
termination date and make a Termination Payment. The Owners only source of funds
with  respect  to the  Serial  and Term  Loans  is  payments  from  the  Initial
Charterer,  including  Termination  Payments.  The  Owners do not have any other
source of funds for payment of the Serial and Term Loans.

The  financial  statements  have been  prepared in  accordance  with  accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP).

2.   Principal Accounting Policies

A summary of the Company's accounting policies, is set out below.

     (a)  Finance lease and revenue recognition

          The long-term  charter  agreement  between the Company and the Initial
          Charterer  subsequently transfers all the risks and rewards associated
          with ownership,  other than legal title and contains  bargain purchase
          options.  As such it is  classified  as a  direct  financing  lease in
          accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 13.

          Accordingly,  the minimum  payments  under the charter  agreement  are
          recorded as the gross  investment in the finance lease. The difference
          between the gross  investment in the finance lease and the cost of the
          Vessel is  recorded  as unearned  income.  Throughout  the term of the
          charter agreement,  the Company records as revenue interest income and
          unearned  income,  which is  amortized  to income over the life of the
          charter  agreement as to produce a constant periodic rate of return on
          the net investment in the finance lease.

     (b)  Interest payable recognition

          Interest  payable  on the  Serial and Term Loans is accrued on a daily
          basis.

     (c)  Discount on loans

          Discount on issue of the long-term debt which comprises the Serial and
          Term Loans is being amortized over the respective  periods to maturity
          of the debt as described in Note 5.

     (d)  Income taxes

          The Company is not liable to pay income taxes in the Isle of Man.

     (e)  Cash equivalents

          The Company  considers all highly liquid  investments  with a maturity
          date of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

     (f)  Reporting currency

          The  reporting  currency  is United  States  dollars.  The  functional
          currency is United States dollars.

     (g)  Use of estimates

          The preparation of financial  statements in accordance with accounting
          principles  generally  accepted  in the  United  States  requires  the
          Company to make estimates and  assumptions in determining the reported
          amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets
          and  liabilities  on the  dates of the  financial  statements  and the
          reported  amounts  of  revenues  and  expenses  during  the  reporting
          periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

3.   New Accounting Standards

In June 2001, the U.S. Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS
No. 141, "Business  Combinations,"  (SFAS 141) which requires the application of
the purchase  method in  accounting  for  business  combinations  including  the
identification  of the  acquiring  enterprise  for  each  transaction.  SFAS 141
applies to all  business  combinations  initiated  after  June 30,  2001 and all
business  combinations  accounted for by the purchase methods that are completed
after June 30,  2001.  The  adoption of SFAS No. 141 by the Company did not have
any impact on the Company's financial statements.

In June 2001,  the FASB  issued  SFAS No. 142,  "Goodwill  and Other  Intangible
Assets" (SFAS 142). SFAS 142 applies to all acquired  intangible  assets whether
acquired singly, as part of a group, or in a business combination.  The adoption
of SFAS 142 by the  Company  on  January  1, 2002 did not have any impact on the
Company's financial statements.

In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for the Asset Retirement
Obligations"  (SFAS 143).  Under SFAS 143, an entity  shall  recognize  the fair
value of a liability for an asset  retirement  obligation in the period in which
it is  incurred  if a  reasonable  estimate  of fair  value  can be  made.  If a
reasonable  estimate  of fair  value  cannot  be made in the  period  the  asset
retirement  obligation  is incurred,  the liability  shall be recognized  when a
reasonable  estimate of fair value can be made.  Upon initial  recognition  of a
liability  for an asset  retirement  obligation,  an entity shall  capitalize an
asset  retirement  cost  by  increasing  the  carrying  amount  of  the  related
long-lived  asset  by  the  same  amount  as  the  liability.  An  entity  shall
subsequently  allocate that asset  retirement cost to expense using a systematic
and rational  method over its useful life.  SFAS No. 143 is effective for fiscal
years  beginning  after December 15, 2002.  Management  does not expect that the
adoption  of SFAS 143 on  January  1, 2003 will  have a  material  effect on the
Company's financial statements.

In October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of  Long-Lived  Assets" (SFAS 144).  SFAS 144 requires that  long-lived
assets that are to be disposed of by sale be measured at the lower of book value
or fair value less costs to sell.  Additionally,  the standard expands the scope
of  discontinued  operations  to  include  all  components  of  an  entity  with
operations  that can be  distinguished  from the rest of the  entity and will be
eliminated from the ongoing operations of the entity in a disposal  transaction.
The  adoption  of SFAS 144 on  January  1,  2002 did not have any  impact on the
Company's financial statements.

In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation 45, "Guarantor's Accounting and
Disclosure  Requirements  for  Guarantees,   Including  Indirect  Guarantees  of
Indebtedness  of Others" (FIN 45). Fin 45 elaborates on the existing  disclosure
requirements  for most  guarantees,  including loan  guarantees  such as standby
letters  of  credit.  It also  clarifies  that at the  time a  company  issues a
guarantee,  the company must recognize an initial  liability for the fair value,
or market  value,  of the  obligations  it assumes  under the guarantee and must
disclose that  information in its interim and annual financial  statements.  The
initial  recognition and initial  measurement  provisions apply on a prospective
basis to  guarantees  issued or modified  after  December 31,  2002.  Management
believes that adoption of the recognition  and measurement  provisions of FIN 45
will not have a material impact on its financial statements.

In January 2003, the FASB issued  Interpretation 46,  "Consolidation of Variable
Interest  Entities" (FIN 46). FIN 46 requires a variable  interest  entity to be
consolidated  by a company if that  company is subject to a majority of the risk
of loss from the variable interest entity's  activities or entitled to receive a
majority  of  the  entity's   residual   returns  or  both.  The   consolidation
requirements of FIN 46 apply  immediately to variable  interest entities created
after January 31, 2003. The consolidation  requirements  apply to older entities
in the first  fiscal  year or interim  period  beginning  after  June 15,  2003.
Certain of the disclosure  requirements apply in all financial statements issued
after  January 31, 2003,  regardless  of when the variable  interest  entity was
established.  Management  believes  that  adoption  of FIN 46  will  not  have a
material impact on its financial statements.
