“liquidation”, “winding up”, “dissolution”, or “administration” of
(i) a person or (ii) a “receiver” or “administrative receiver” or “administrator” in the context of insolvency proceedings or security enforcement actions in respect
of a person shall be construed so as to include any equivalent or analogous proceedings or any equivalent and analogous person or appointee (respectively) under the law of the jurisdiction in which such person is established or incorporated or any
jurisdiction in which such person carries on business including (in respect of proceedings) the seeking or occurrences of liquidation, winding-up, reorganisation, dissolution, administration, arrangement,
adjustment, protection or relief of debtors. 
  

	 	1.5	 Same meaning. Unless a contrary indication appears, a term used in any other Finance Document or in any
notice given under or in connection with any Finance Document has the same meaning in that Finance Document or notice as in this Agreement. 

  

	 	1.6	 Inconsistency. Unless a contrary indication appears, in the event of any inconsistency between the terms
of this Agreement and the terms of any other Finance Document when dealing with the same or similar subject matter (other than as relates to the creation and/or perfection of security) and, in the event of any conflict between any provision of this
Agreement and any provision of any Finance Document (other than in relation to the creation and/or perfection of security) the provisions of this Agreement shall prevail. 

 

	 	1.7	 Finance Documents. Where any other Finance Document provides that Clause 1.3
(Interpretation) and Clause 1.4 (Construction of certain terms), shall apply to that Finance Document, any other provision of this Agreement which, by its terms, purports to apply to all or any of the
Finance Documents and/or any Security Party shall apply to that Finance Document as if set out in it but with all necessary changes. 

  

	 	2.	 THE LOAN 

 

	 	2.1	 Commitment to Lend. The Lender, relying upon (inter alia) each of the representations and warranties set
forth in Clause 6 (Representations and warranties) 

  
 28 

	 	
and in each of the Security Documents, agrees to lend to the Borrowers, as joint and several borrowers, by way of the Tranches and upon and subject to the terms of this Agreement, the amount
specified in Clause 1.1 (Amount and Purpose) and the Borrowers shall apply all amounts borrowed under the Commitment in accordance with Clause 1.1 (Amount and Purpose). 

 

	 	2.2	 Drawdown Notice and Commitment to Borrow. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the
Commitment shall be advanced to the Borrowers following receipt by the Lender from the Borrowers of a Drawdown Notice not later than 10:00 a.m. (London time) on the second Banking Day before the date on which the drawdown is intended to be made.

  

	 	2.3	 Drawdown Notice irrevocable. A Drawdown Notice must be signed by a duly authorised signatory or attorney-in-fact of the Borrowers and shall be effective on actual receipt thereof by the Lender and, once served, it, subject as provided in Clause 3.6 (Market
disruption – Non Availability), cannot be revoked without the prior consent of the Lender. 

  

	 	2.4	 Number of Tranches Agreed. The Commitment shall be advanced to the Borrowers by the Tranches and after
the advance of the Tranches any amount undrawn under the Commitment shall be cancelled and may not be borrowed by the Borrowers at a later date. 

  

	 	2.5	 Disbursement. Upon receipt of the Drawdown Notice complying with the terms of this Agreement the Lender
shall, subject to the provisions of Clause 7 (Conditions precedent), on the date specified in the Drawdown Notice, make the Commitment available to the Borrowers, and payment to the Borrowers shall be made to the account which
the Borrowers specify in the Drawdown Notice. 

  

	 	2.6	 Application of Proceeds. Without prejudice to the Borrowers’ obligations under Clause 8.1(c)
(Use of Loan proceeds), the Lender is not bound to monitor or verify the application of any amount borrowed pursuant to this Agreement and shall have no responsibility for the application of the proceeds of the Loan (or any part
thereof) by the Borrowers. 

  

	 	2.7	 Termination Date of the Commitment. Any part of the Commitment undrawn and uncancelled at the end of the
Availability Period shall thereupon be automatically cancelled. 

  

	 	2.8	 Evidence. It is hereby expressly agreed and admitted by the Borrowers that abstracts or photocopies of
the books of the Lender as well as statements of accounts or a certificate signed by an authorised officer of the Lender shall be conclusive binding and full evidence, save for manifest error, on the Borrowers as to the existence and/or the amount
of the at any time Outstanding Indebtedness, of any amount due under this Agreement, of the applicable interest rate or Default Rate or any other rate 

  
 29 

	 	
provided for or referred to in this Agreement, the Interest Period, the value of additional securities under Clause 8.5(a) (Security Shortfall-Additional Security),
the payment or non payment of any amount due under a Finance Document. Nevertheless, enforcement procedures or any other court or out-of-court procedure can be commenced
by the Lender on the basis of the above mentioned means of evidence including written statements or certificates of the Lender. 

  

	 	2.9	      

 

	 	2.10	 No security or lien from other person. The Borrowers have not taken or received, and the Borrowers
undertake that until all moneys, obligations and liabilities due, owing or incurred by the Borrowers under this Agreement and the Security Documents have been paid in full, they will not take or receive, any security or lien from any other person
liable or for any liability whatsoever. 

  

	 	2.11	 Interest to co-borrow. The Borrowers have an interest in
borrowing jointly and severally in that they are companies which have close financial co-operation and mutual assistance and in that the Commitment would not have been available to each one of the Borrowers
separately. 

  

	 	3.	 INTEREST 

 

	 	3.1	 Normal Interest Rate. The Borrowers shall pay interest on each Tranche, or as the case may be, the Loan
(or as the case may be, each portion thereof to which a different Interest Period relates) in respect of each Interest Period (or part thereof) on each Interest Payment Date. The interest rate for the calculation of interest shall be the rate per
annum determined by the Lender to be the aggregate of (i) the Applicable Margin and (ii) LIBOR for such Interest Period, unless there is an Alternative Rate in which case the interest rate for the calculation of interest shall be the rate
per annum determined by the Lender to be the aggregate of (i) the Applicable Margin and (ii) the Alternative Rate. 

  

	 	3.2	 Selection of Interest Period. 

 

	 	(a)	 Notice: The Borrowers may by notice received by the Lender not later than 10:00 a.m. (London time) on
the second Banking Day before the beginning of each Interest Period specify (subject to Clause 3.3 (Determination of Interest Periods) below) whether such Interest Period shall have a duration of three (3) or six
(6) or twelve (12) months (or such other period as may be requested by the Borrowers and as the Lender, in its sole discretion, may agree to). 

  

	 	(b)	 Non-availability of matching deposits for Interest Period
selected: If, after the Borrowers by notice to the Lender have selected an Interest Period longer than 3 months, the Lender notifies the Borrowers on the same Banking Day before the commencement of the Interest Period that it is not satisfied
that 

  
 30 

	 	
deposits in Dollars for a period equal to the Interest Period selected by the Borrowers will be available to it in the London Interbank Market when such Interest Period commences, that Interest
Period shall be of such duration as the Lender may advice the Borrowers in writing. 

  

	 	3.3	 Determination of Interest Periods. Every Interest Period shall, subject to market availability to be
conclusively determined by the Lender, be of the duration specified by the Borrowers pursuant to Clause 3.2 (Selection of Interest Period) but so that: 

 

	 	(a)	 the initial Interest Period applicable to the Loan will commence on the Drawdown Date and each subsequent
Interest Period will commence forthwith upon the expiry of the preceding Interest Period; 

  

	 	(b)	 if any Interest Period would otherwise overrun one or more Repayment Dates, then, in the case of the last
Repayment Date, such Interest Period shall end on such Repayment Date, and in the case of any other Repayment Date or Dates the Loan shall be divided into parts so that there is one part equal to the amount of the Repayment Instalment due on each
Repayment Date falling during that Interest Period and having an Interest Period ending on the relevant Repayment Date and another part equal to the amount of the balance of the Loan having an Interest Period determined in accordance with Clause 3.2
(Selection of Interest Period) and the other provisions of this Clause 3.3 and the expression “Interest Period in respect of the Loan” when used in this Agreement refers to the Interest Period in respect
of the balance of the Loan; and 

  

	 	(c)	 if the Borrowers fail to specify the duration of an Interest Period in accordance with the provisions of Clause
3.2 (Selection of Interest Period) and this Clause 3.3, such Interest Period shall have a duration of three (3) months unless another period shall be agreed between the Lender and the Borrowers provided, always, that
such period (whether of three months or different duration) shall comply with this Clause 3.3. 

  

	 	3.4	 Default Interest. 

 

	 	(a)	 Default interest: If the Borrowers fail to pay any sum (including, without limitation, any sum payable
pursuant to this Clause 3.4) on its due date for payment under any of the Finance Documents, the Borrowers shall pay interest on such sum from the due date up to the date of actual payment (as well after as before judgement) at the rate determined
by the Lender pursuant to this Clause 3.4. The period beginning on such due date and ending on such date of payment shall be divided into successive periods of not more than three (3) months as selected by the Lender each of which (other than
the first, which shall commence on such due date) shall commence on the last 

  
 31 

	 	
day of the preceding such period. The rate of interest applicable to each such period shall be the aggregate (as determined by the Lender) of (i) two per cent (2%), per annum, (ii) the
Applicable Margin and (iii) LIBOR. Such interest shall be due and payable on the last day of each such period as determined by the Lender and each such day shall, for the purposes of this Agreement, be treated as an Interest Payment Date,
provided that if such unpaid sum is of principal which became due and payable by reason of a declaration by the Lender under Clause 9.2 (Consequences of Default – Acceleration) on a date other than an Interest Payment Date
relating thereto, the first such period selected by the Lender shall be of a duration equal to the period between the due date of such principal sum and such Interest Payment Date and interest shall be payable on such principal sum during such
period at a rate two per cent (2%) above the rate applicable thereto immediately before it fell due. If for the reasons specified in Clause 3.6 (Market disruption – Non Availability), the Lender is unable to
determine a rate in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Clause 3.4 (Default interest), interest on any sum not paid on its due date for payment shall be calculated at a rate determined by the Lender to be two
per cent (2%) per annum above the aggregate of (i) the Applicable Margin and (ii) the Alternative Rate. Interest payable by the Borrowers as aforesaid shall be (at the sole discretion of the Lender) compounded quarterly and shall be
payable on demand. 

  

	 	3.5	 Notification of Interest and interest rate. The Lender shall notify the Borrowers promptly of the
duration of each Interest Period and of each rate of interest determined by it under this Clause 3 without prejudice to the right of the Lender to make determinations at its sole discretion, but this shall not be taken to imply that the Borrowers
are liable to pay such interest only with effect from the date of the Lender’s notification. However, omission of the Lender to make such notification will not constitute and will not be interpreted as if to constitute a breach of obligation of
the Lender except in case of wilful misconduct. 

  

	 	3.6	 Market disruption – Non Availability 

 

	 	(a)	 Market Disruption Event: If and whenever, at any time prior to the commencement of any Interest Period,
the Lender (in its discretion) shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error) that a Market Disruption Event has occurred in relation to the Loan for any such Interest Period, then the Lender shall
forthwith give notice thereof (a “Determination Notice”) to the Borrowers and the rate of interest on the Loan (or the relevant part thereof) for that Interest Period shall be the percentage rate per annum which is the sum
of: 

  

	 	(i)	 the Applicable Margin; and 

  
 32 

	 	(ii)	 the rate which expresses as a percentage rate per annum the cost to the Lender of funding the Loan (or the
relevant part thereof) from whatever source it may select. 

  

	 	(b)	 Suspension of drawdown: If the Determination Notice is given before the Commitment (or a part thereof)
is advanced, the Lender’s obligation to make the Commitment (or a part thereof) available shall be suspended while the circumstances referred to in the Determination Notice continue. 

 

	 	(c)	 Meaning of “Market Disruption Event”: In this Agreement “Market
Disruption Event” means: 

  

	 	(i)	 at or about noon on the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period LIBOR is not available; and/or

  

	 	(ii)	 before close of business in London on the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period, the Lender determines
(in its sole discretion) that the cost to it of obtaining matching deposits in the London Interbank Market to fund the Loan (or the relevant part thereof) for such Interest Period would be in excess of the LIBOR for such Interest Period; and

  

	 	(iii)	 before close of business in London on the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period, deposits in Dollars
are not available to the Lender in the London Interbank Market in the ordinary course of business in sufficient amounts to fund the Loan (or the relevant part thereof) for such Interest Period. 

 

	 	(d)	 Alternative basis of interest or funding: 

 

	 	(i)	 If a Market Disruption Event occurs and the Lender or the Borrowers so require, the Lender and the Borrowers
shall enter into negotiations (for a period of not more than fourteen (14) days (the “Negotiation Period”)) after the giving of the relevant Determination Notice with a view to agreeing a substitute basis for determining
the rate of interest. 

  

	 	(ii)	 Any alternative basis agreed pursuant to paragraph (i) above shall be binding on the Lender and all
Security Parties. 

  

	 	(e)	 Alternative basis of interest in absence of agreement: If the Lender and the Borrowers will not enter
into negotiations as provided in Sub-Clause 3.6(d)(i) or if an alternative interest rate or alternative basis is not agreed within the Negotiation Period, and the relevant circumstances are continuing at the
end of the Negotiation Period, then the Lender shall set the following Interest Period and an interest rate representing the cost of funding of the Lender in 

  
 33 

	 	
Dollars of the Loan (or the relevant part thereof) plus the Applicable Margin for such Interest Period; if the relevant circumstances are continuing at the end of the Interest Period so set by
the Lender, the Lender shall continue to set the following Interest Period and an interest rate representing its cost of funding in Dollars of the Loan (or the relevant part thereof) plus the Applicable Margin for such Interest Period.

  

	 	(f)	 Notice of prepayment: If the Borrowers do not agree with an interest rate set by the Lender in
accordance with Clause 3.6(e) (Alternative basis of interest in absence of agreement), the Borrowers may give the Lender not less than 5 Banking Days’ notice of their intention to prepay the Loan (or the relevant part
thereof) at the end of the interest period set by the Lender. 

  

	 	(g)	 Prepayment; termination of Commitment: A notice under Clause 3.6(f) (Notice of
Prepayment) shall be irrevocable; and on the last Banking Day of the interest period set by the Lender, the Borrowers shall prepay (without premium or penalty) the Loan (or the relevant part thereof) together with accrued interest thereon at
the applicable rate representing the Lender’s cost of funding in Dollars of the Loan plus the Applicable Margin.

	 	4.2	 Voluntary Prepayment. The Borrowers shall have the right, upon giving the Lender not less than five
(5) Banking Days’ notice in writing, to prepay, without penalty or prepayment fee, part or all of the Loan, together with all unpaid interest accrued on the amount to be prepaid and all other sums of money whatsoever due and owing from the

stated in such notice; 

  

	 	(b)	 if the Borrowers shall request consent to make such prepayment on a day other than the last day of an Interest
Period the Borrowers will pay, in addition to the amount to be prepaid, any such sum as may be payable to the Lender pursuant to Clause 10.1 (Miscellaneous Indemnities) within three (3) Banking Days of demand by the Lender;

	 	4.3	 Compulsory Prepayment in case of Total Loss or sale of a Mortgaged Vessel. 

  
 36 

	 	(a)	 Total Loss: On a Mortgaged Vessel becoming a Total Loss (i) prior to the advance of the Tranche
relative to such Vessel (or any part thereof), the obligation of the Lender to advance the Tranche relative to such Vessel (or any part thereof) shall immediately cease and the Tranche relative to the Vessel so lost shall be reduced to zero or
(ii) in the event that the Commitment, or as the case may be, a Tranche (or any part thereof) has already been advanced, the Borrowers shall prepay the Relevant Required Amount (as hereinafter defined) together with any and all additional
amounts payable (as applicable) pursuant to the provisions of Clause 4.4, without penalty, premium or prepayment fee, the latest on the date falling one hundred and eighty (180) days following the occurrence of such Total Loss or, if earlier,
on the date upon which the insurance proceeds in respect of such Total Loss are or Requisition Compensation is received by the relevant Borrower (or the Lender pursuant to the Security Documents). 

The Lender shall notify to the Borrowers the total additional amounts payable (as applicable) pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this
Clause 4.3(a) and the Borrowers shall be obliged to make such prepayment of the Loan and payment of interest and other monies as aforesaid on the date specified in the foregoing provisions of this Clause 4.3(a) 

For the purpose of this Agreement a Total Loss of a Vessel is deemed to have occurred: 

 

	 	(aa)	 in the case of an actual total loss of a Vessel, at the actual date and time such Vessel was lost but in the
event of the date of the loss being unknown then the actual total loss shall be deemed to have occurred on the date falling fifteen (15) days after the date on which such Vessel was last reported; 

 

	 	(bb)	 in the case of a constructive total loss of a Vessel, at the date and time notice of abandonment (the
“NOA date”) of such Vessel is given to the insurers of such Vessel (provided a claim for such Total Loss is admitted by such insurers) or, if such insurers do not admit such a claim on the earlier of (aa) the date when
either the total loss is subsequently admitted by the insurers, or (bb) a total loss is subsequently adjudged by a competent court of law or arbitration tribunal to have occurred and (cc) the date falling sixty (60) days after the NOA
date, or, in the event that such notice of abandonment is not given by its Owner to the insurers of such Vessel, at the date and time on which occurred the incident and which may result, in the opinion of the Lender, in such Vessel being
subsequently determined to be a Total Loss; 

  
 37 

	 	(cc)	 in the case of a compromised or arranged total loss of a Vessel, on the date upon which a binding agreement as
to such compromised or arranged total loss has been entered into by the then insurers of such Vessel; 

  

	 	(dd)	 in the case of Compulsory Acquisition of a Vessel, on the date upon which the relevant requisition of title or
other compulsory acquisition occurs excluding a requisition for hire; 

  

	 	(ee)	 in the case of, condemnation, capture, seizure, confiscation, arrest, or detention of such Vessel (other than
where the same amounts to Compulsory Acquisition of such Vessel) by any Government Entity, or by persons acting on behalf of any Government Entity or otherwise, which deprives its Owner of the use of such Vessel for more than ninety (90) days,
upon the expiry of the period of ninety (90) days after the date upon which the relevant condemnation, capture, seizure or confiscation, arrest or detention (or within such longer time period the Borrowers may request and the Lender at its sole
discretion may approve such consent not to be unreasonably witheld); and 

  

	 	(ff)	 in the case of hijacking, capture, seizure or confiscation of a Vessel arising as a result of a piracy or
related incident unless such Vessel be released and restored to its Owner from such hijacking, capture, seizure or confiscation within one hundred twenty (120) days after the date upon which the relevant hijacking, capture, seizure or
confiscation. 

  

	 	(b)	 Compulsory Prepayment in case of sale of a Mortgaged Vessel: In the event of a sale or other disposal of
a Mortgaged Vessel or in case of refinancing by another bank or if the Borrowers request, and the the Lender’s consent is granted for the discharge of the Mortgage registered on such Vessel, the Borrowers shall prepay an amount equal to the
Relevant Required Amount and the Borrowers shall thereupon be obliged to make such partial prepayment of the Loan; 

 and
for the purpose of this Clause 4.3 “Relevant Required Amount” in relation to a Mortgaged Vessel, means the higher of : 
  

	 	(i)	 the total amount outstanding under the relevant Tranche and in particular (aa) the Hephaestus Tranche, in
relation to the Hephaestus Vessel (bb) the Hector Tranche, in relation to the Hector Vessel and (cc) the Pericles Tranche, in relation to the Pericles Vessel; and 

  
 38 

	 	(ii)	 the amount which is equal to the pro-rata share of the Market Value of
the Mortgaged Vessel so lost or sold in the aggregate Market Value of all the Mortgaged Vessels as determined in accordance with Clause 8.5(b) (Valuation of Vessels) hereof immediately before the Total Loss or, as the case may be, the
sale or other disposal of the relevant Mortgaged Vessel or discharge of the relevant Mortgage registered on such Mortgaged Vessel; and 

  

	 	(iii)	 such amount of the Loan, which results in the Asset Cover Ratio being equal to the Asset Cover Ratio maintained
immediately prior to the prepayment made pursuant to this Clause 4.3 (and for the duration of the Deferral Period and only for the purposes of this Clause 4.3 by way of the Lender testing and determining such applicable Asset Cover Ratio pursuant to
the provisions of Clause 8.5(b)); 

 In the event that after prepaying the Relevant Required Amount (and for the duration
of the Deferral Period), the Asset Cover Ratio is tested and found below 130% and always provided that after such Relevant Required Amount prepayment there remain any surplus sale or insurance or other disposal proceeds (the “Surplus
Proceeds”), the Loan shall be prepaid by any part of such Surplus Proceeds as would be required for the Asset Cover Ratio to reach to a percentage of 130% ; for the avoidance of doubt the Parties agree that the provisions of Clause 8.5(a)
(Security Shortfall- Additional Security) shall not apply in this Clause 4.3 for the duration of the Deferral Period. 
 Provided however
that in case the Hephaestus Vessel is sold pursuant to the provisions of Clause 8.1(j) (Sale of the Hephaestus Vessel), then the Relevant Required Amount shall be the total amount of the sale proceeds of the Hephaestus Vessel to be applied against
full or partial repayment (as the case may be) of the Hephaestus Tranche with allocation and amortisation of the balance unpaid amount to be agreed between the Bank and the Borrowers. 

For the avoidance of doubt in the event that the Total Loss or, as the case may be, sale proceeds of such Mortgaged Vessel are
insufficient to pay in full the whole of the Relevant Required Amount (save for the provisions of Clause 8.1 (j), and save as otherwise provided in this Clause 4.3 for the duration of the Deferral Period the Borrowers shall be obliged to pay the
shortfall to the Lender simultaneously with the payment of the full amount of the Total Loss or, as the case may be, sale proceeds of such Mortgaged Vessel; 

provided, always, that if the relevant Mortgaged Vessel, so lost or sold or otherwise 

  
 39 

 
disposed of, is the last Mortgaged Vessel, then the full amount of the insurance or, as the case may be, the sale proceeds shall apply against full repayment of the Outstanding Indebtedness and
additionally the Borrowers shall prepay to the Lender the balance (if any) of the Outstanding Indebtedness in full and any remaining balance (after such prepayment) of the insurance or, as the case may be, the sale proceeds shall be paid to the
Borrowers. 
  

	 	4.4	 Amounts payable on prepayment 

Any prepayment of all or part of the Loan under this Agreement shall be made together with: 

 

	 	(a)	 accrued interest on the prepaid amount to the date of such prepayment (calculated, in the case of a prepayment
pursuant to Clause 3.6 (Market disruption – Non Availability) at a rate equal to the aggregate of the Applicable Margin and the cost to the Lender of funding the Loan); 

 

	 	(b)	 any additional amount payable under Clause 5.3 (Gross Up); 

 

	 	(c)	 all other sums payable by the Borrowers to the Lender under this Agreement or any of the other Finance
Documents including, without limitation, any amounts payable under Clause 10 (Indemnities - Expenses – Fees): and 

  

	 	(d)	 in relation to any prepayment made on a date other than an Interest Payment Date in respect of the whole of the

incurring liabilities to third parties in relation to the funding of amounts to the Borrowers, such liabilities matching the liabilities of the Borrowers to the Lender and that it is reasonable for the Lender to be entitled to receive payments from

authority, monetary agency, central bank or the like compels the Borrowers to make a payment subject to Governmental Withholdings, or any other deduction or withholding, the Borrowers shall pay to the Lender such additional amounts as may be
necessary to ensure that there will be received by the Lender a net amount equal to the full amount which would have been received had payment not been made subject to such Governmental Withholdings or other deduction or withholding. The Borrowers
shall indemnify the Lender against any losses or costs incurred by the Lender by reason of any failure of the Borrowers to make any such deduction or withholding or by reason of any increased payment not being made on the due date for such payment.
The Borrowers shall, not later than thirty (30) days after each deduction, withholding or payment of any Governmental Withholdings, forward to the Lender official receipts and any other documentary receipts and any other documentary evidence
reasonably required by the Lender in respect of the payment made or to be made of any deduction or withholding or Governmental Withholding. The obligations of the Borrowers under this provision shall, subject to applicable law, remain in force

single loan account maintained under this Agreement. In case that a ship mortgage in the form of Account Current is granted as security under this Agreement, the account(s) referred to in this Clause shall be the Account Current referred to in such
mortgage.

Management Companies) (including any such material adverse change resulting from an Environmental Incident) the effect of which is likely, in the opinion of the Lender, to impair, delay or prevent the due fulfilment by any Security Party(other than

service of both or either of such notices, it being understood and agreed that the non-service of a notice in respect of an Event of Default hereunder, or under any of the Finance Documents (whether known to

notice on the Borrowers declaring its obligations under this Agreement terminated in whole or in part, whereupon the same shall terminate forthwith and the Borrowers will immediately repay the Loan and accrued interest to the date of prepayment
together with all other Outstanding Indebtedness to the Lender pursuant to the terms of the notice. 

  

	 	12.3	 Increased Cost. If, as a result of (a) any change in, or in the interpretation or application of,
or the introduction of, any law or any regulation, request or requirement (whether or not having the force of law, but, if not having the force of law, with which the Lender or, as the case may be, its holding company habitually complies), including
(without limitation) those relating to Taxation, capital adequacy, liquidity, reserve assets, cash ratio deposits and special deposits or other banking or monetary controls or requirements which affects the manner in which the Lender allocates
capital resources to its obligations hereunder and those (including, but not limited to, “Basel III”) which shall replace, amend and/or supplement the provisions set out in the statement (as in effect as of the date of this

Directive (2006/48/EC and 2006/49/EC) or any amendatory or substitute agreement thereof, or (b) compliance by the Lender with any request from any applicable fiscal or monetary authority (whether or not having the force of law but, if not
having the force of law, with which the Lender habitually complies) or (c) any other set of circumstances affecting the Lender:

	 	(c)	 the amount payable or the effective return to the Lender under any of the Finance Documents is reduced; and/or

  

	 	(d)	 the Lender’s rate of return on its overall capital by reason of a change in the manner in which it is
required to allocate capital resources to the Lender’s obligations under any of the Finance Document is reduced; and/or

	 	(f)	 the Lender is required to incur or sustain a loss by reason of being obliged to deduct all or part of the
Commitment or the Loan from its capital for regulatory purposes, 

 then and in each case (subject to Clause 12.7
(Exception)) the Borrowers shall pay to the Lender, from time to time, upon demand, such additional moneys as shall indemnify the Lender for any increased or additional cost, reduction, payment, or direct loss whatsoever. 

 

	 	12.4	 Claim for increased cost. The Lender will promptly notify the Borrowers of any intention to claim
indemnification pursuant to Clause 12.3 (Increased Cost) and such notification will be a conclusive and full evidence binding on the Borrowers as to the amount of any increased cost or reduction and the method of calculating the same
and the Borrowers shall be allowed to rebut such evidence by any means of evidence save for witness. A claim under Clause 12.3 (Increased Cost) may be made at any time and must be discharged by the Borrowers within seven
(7) days of demand. It shall not be a defence to a claim by the Lender under this Clause 12.4 that any increased cost or reduction could have been avoided by the Lender. Any amount due from the Borrowers under Clause 12.3 (Increased
Cost) shall be due as a separate debt and shall not be affected by judgement being obtained for any other sums due under or in respect of this Agreement.

promptly indemnify the Lender against any cost incurred or loss suffered by the Lender as a result of its complying with the minimum reserve requirements of the European Central Bank and/or with respect to maintaining required reserves with the

(Increased Cost). 

  
 91 

	 	12.6	 Option to prepay. If any additional amounts are required to be paid by the Borrowers to the Lender by
virtue of Clause 12.3 (Increased Cost), and the Borrowers are not willing to continue to compensate the Lender for such increased costs by virtue of Clause 12.3, the Borrowers shall be entitled, on giving the Lender not less
than fourteen (14) days prior notice in writing, to prepay (without premium or penalty) the Loan and accrued interest thereon, together with all other Outstanding Indebtedness, on the next Interest Payment Date. Any such notice, once given,
shall be irrevocable. 

  

	 	12.7	 Exception. Nothing in Clause 12.3 (Increased Cost) shall entitle the Lender

 104 

	 	(c)	 This Clause 18.2 is for the benefit of the Lender only. As a result, the Lender shall not be prevented from
taking proceedings relating to a Dispute in any other courts with jurisdiction. To the extent allowed by law, the Lender may take concurrent proceedings in any number of jurisdictions. 

 

	 	18.3	 Process Agent for English Proceedings. Without prejudice to any other mode of service allowed under any
relevant law each of the Borrowers irrevocably designates, appoints and empowers Messrs. SAVILLE & Co. (attention: Mr. Richard Saville) at present of One Carey
Lane, London, EC2V 8AE,) (hereinafter called the “Process Agent for English Proceedings”), to receive for it and on its behalf, service of process issued out of the English courts in relation to any proceedings before the
English courts in connection with any Finance Document, 

 provided, however, that: 

 

	 	(a)	 each of the Borrowers hereby agrees and undertakes to maintain a Process Agent for English Proceedings
throughout the Security Period and hereby agrees that in the event that if any Process Agent for English Proceedings is unable for any reason to act as agent for service of process, the Borrowers must immediately (and in any event within ten
(10) days of such event taking place) appoint another agent on terms acceptable to the Lender. Failing this, the Lender may appoint for this purpose a substitute Process Agent for English Proceedings and the Lender is hereby irrevocably
authorised to effect such appointment on Borrowers’ behalf. The appointment of such Process Agent for English Proceedings shall be valid and binding from the date notice of such appointment is given by the Lender to the Borrowers in accordance
with Clause 17.1 (Notices); and 

  

	 	(c)	 each of the Borrowers hereby agrees that failure by a Process Agent for English Proceedings to notify the
Borrowers of the process will not invalidate the proceedings concerned. 

  

	 	18.4	 Proceedings in any other country. If it is decided by the Lender that any such proceedings should be
commenced in any other country, then any objections as to the jurisdiction or any claim as to the inconvenience of the forum is hereby waived by the Borrowers and it is agreed and undertaken by the Borrowers to instruct lawyers in that country to
accept service of legal process and not to contest the validity of such proceedings as far as the jurisdiction of the court or courts involved is concerned and the Borrowers agrees that any judgment or order obtained in an English court shall be
conclusive and binding on the Borrowers and shall be enforceable without review in the courts of any other jurisdiction. 

  

	 	18.5	 Process Agent for Greek Proceedings. Mrs. Maria Danezi, an attorney-at-law, c/o Technomar Shipping Inc., 3-5 Menandrou street, 145 61 Kifissia, Greece (hereinafter called the “Process Agent for Greek
Proceedings”) is hereby appointed by the 

  
 105 

	 	
Borrowers as agent to accept service, upon whom any judicial process in respect of proceedings in Greece may be served and any process notice, judicial or extra- judicial request, demand for
payment, payment order, foreclosure proceedings, notarial announcement of claim, notice, request, demand or other communication under this Agreement or any of the Finance Documents. In the event that the Process Agent for Greek Proceedings (or any
substitute process agent notified to the Lender in accordance with the foregoing) cannot be found at the address specified above (or, as the case may be, notified to the Lender), which will be conclusively proved by a deed of a process server to the
effect that the Process Agent for Greek Proceedings was not found at such address, any process notice, judicial or extra-judicial request, demand for payment, payment order, foreclosure proceedings, notarial announcement of claim or other
communication to be sent to any Security Party may be validly served/notified in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Hellenic Code on Civil Procedure. 

  

	 	18.6	 Third Party Rights. A person who is not a party to this Agreement has no right under the Contracts
(Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 to enforce or to enjoy the benefit of any term of this Agreement. 

  

	 	18.7	 Meaning of “proceedings”. In this Clause 18 “proceedings” means proceedings
of any kind, including an application for a provisional or protective measure.
