Plans, the SELLER shall alter the construction of the VESSEL in accordance therewith, including any additions to, or deductions from, the work to be performed in connection with such construction. If due to whatever reasons, the parties hereto shall
fail to agree on the adjustment of the Contract Price or extension of time of delivery or modification of any terms of this Contract which are necessitated by such modifications and/or changes, then the SELLER shall have no obligation to comply with
the BUYER’s request for any modification and/or changes. 
 2. CHANGES IN RULES AND REGULATIONS, ETC. 

 

	(1)	 If, after the date of signing this Contract, any requirements as to the rules and regulations as specified in this Contract and the Specifications
to which the construction of the VESSEL is required to conform, are altered or changed by the Classification Society or the other regulatory bodies authorized to make such alterations or changes, the SELLER and/or the BUYER, upon receipt of the
notice thereof, shall transmit such information in

	 Shipbuilding Contract
	  	Hull No.             

  

	 	 
full to each other in writing, whereupon within Twenty-one (21) days after receipt of the said notice by the BUYER from the SELLER or vice versa, the BUYER shall instruct the SELLER in
writing as to the alterations or changes, if any, to be made in the VESSEL which the BUYER, in its sole discretion, shall decide. The SELLER shall promptly comply with such alterations or changes, if any, in the construction of the VESSEL, provided
that the BUYER shall first agree: 

  

	 	(a)	 As to any increase or decrease in the Contract Price of the VESSEL that is occasioned by the cost for such compliance; and/or

  

	 	(b)	 As to any extension in the time for delivery of the VESSEL that is necessary due to such compliance; and/or 

 

	 	(c)	 As to any increase or decrease in the guaranteed speed and/or cubic capacity and/or deadweight of the VESSEL, if such compliance results in
increased or reduced speed and/or fuel consumption and/or deadweight; and/or 

  

	 	(d)	 As to any other alterations in the terms of this Contract or of Specifications or both, if such compliance makes such alterations of the terms
necessary. 

 Agreement as to such alterations or changes under this Paragraph shall be made in the same
manner as provided above for modifications and/or changes of the Specifications and/or Plans. 
  

	(2)	 If, due to whatever reasons, the parties shall fail to agree on the adjustment of the Contract Price or extension of the time for delivery or
increase or decrease of the guaranteed speed and fuel consumption and deadweight or any alteration of the terms of this Contract, if any, then the SELLER shall be entitled to proceed with the construction of the VESSEL in accordance with, and
the BUYER shall continue to be bound by, the terms of this Contract and Specifications without making any such alterations or changes. 

However, if the alterations or changes are compulsorily required to be made by Class or IMO Rules or the rules and regulations
of the Republic of the Marshall Islands Flag State for successful delivery of the VESSEL to the BUYER, then, notwithstanding any dispute between the parties relating to the adjustment of the Contract Price or extension of the time for
delivery or decrease of the guaranteed speed and fuel consumption and deadweight or any other respect, the SELLER shall promptly comply with such alterations or changes. The BUYER shall, in any event, bear the reasonable costs and expenses for such
alterations or changes (and, in the absence of mutual agreement, the amount thereof and/or any other discrepancy such as but not limited to the extension of Delivery Date, etc. to be determined by arbitration in accordance with Article XIII of this
Contract).

 3. SUBSTITUTION OF MATERIALS AND/OR EQUIPMENT 

In the event that any of the materials and/or equipment required by the Specifications or otherwise under this Contract for
the construction of the VESSEL cannot be procured in time to effect delivery of the VESSEL, the SELLER may, provided the SELLER shall provide adequate evidence and the BUYER so agrees in writing, supply other materials and/or equipment of the
equivalent quality, capable of meeting the requirements of the Classification Society and of the rules, regulations, requirements and recommendations with which the construction of the VESSEL must comply. Such substitution of material shall be at no
extra cost to the Buyer. 
 4. BUYER’S SUPPLIED ITEMS 

The BUYER shall deliver to the BUILDER at its Shipyard the items as specified in the Specifications which the BUYER shall
supply on the BUYER’s account by the time designated by the SELLER. 
 Should the BUYER fail to deliver to the BUILDER
such items within the time specified, the delivery of the VESSEL shall automatically be extended for a period of such delay, provided such delay in delivery of the BUYER’s supplied items shall affect the delivery of the VESSEL. In such event,
the BUYER shall pay to the SELLER all losses and damages sustained and properly evidenced by the SELLER due to such delay in the delivery of the BUYER’s supplied items and such payment shall be made upon delivery of the VESSEL Provided that the
BUYER shall not, in any circumstances, be liable for any consequential loss or special loss, or expenses arising from such delay including, without limitation, loss of time, loss of profit or earnings. 

Furthermore, if the delay in delivery of the BUYER’s supplied items should exceed Thirty (30) days, the SELLER shall
be entitled to proceed with construction of the VESSEL without installation of such items in or onto the VESSEL, without prejudice to the SELLER’s right hereinabove provided, and the BUYER shall (subject to the terms of the Contract) accept
the VESSEL so completed, provided it otherwise being in compliance with the Contract and the Specifications. 
 The
BUILDER shall be responsible for storing and handling of the BUYER’s supplies as specified in the Specifications after delivery to the BUILDER and shall install them on board the VESSEL at the SELLER’s cost and expense. 

Upon arrival of such shipment of the BUYER’s supplied item, the BUILDER and the BUYER shall undertake a joint unpacking
inspection. If any damages are found so that the

 ARTICLE VI - TRIALS 

1. NOTICE 
 The BUYER and the
Supervisor shall receive from the SELLER at least Fifteen (15) days notice in advance and Seven (7) days definite notice in advance by notification sent by telefax or email, of the time and place of the VESSEL’s sea trial as described
in the Specifications (hereinafter referred to as “the Trial Run”) and the BUYER and the Supervisor shall promptly acknowledge receipt of such notice. The BUYER’s representatives and/or the Supervisor shall be on board the VESSEL to
witness such Trial Run, and to check upon the performance of the VESSEL during the same. Failure of the BUYER’s representatives to be present at the Trial Run of the VESSEL, after due notice to the BUYER and the Supervisor as provided above,
shall have the effect to extend the date for delivery of the VESSEL by the period of delay caused by such failure to be present. However, if the Trial Run is delayed more than Seven (7) days by reason of the failure of the BUYER’s
representatives to be present after receipt of due notice as provided above, then in such event, the BUYER shall be deemed to have waived its right to have its representatives on board the VESSEL during the Trial Run, and the BUILDER may conduct
such Trial Run without the BUYER’s representatives being present, and in such case the BUYER shall be obliged to accept the VESSEL on the basis of a certificate jointly signed by the BUILDER and the Classification Society certifying that the
VESSEL, after Trial Run subject to minor alterations and corrections as provided in this Article, if any, is found to conform to the Contract and Specifications. The SELLER hereby warrants that the necessary Invitation Letter for the BUYER’s
representatives to enter China will be issued in order on demand and without delay and if not the Trial Run shall be postponed until after the BUYER’s representatives have arrived at the BUILDER’s shipyard, and any delays as a result
thereof shall not count as a permissible delay under Article VIII hereof. However, should the nationalities and other personal particulars of the BUYER’s representatives be not acceptable to the SELLER in accordance with its best understanding
of the relevant rules, regulations and/or Laws of the People’s Republic of China then prevailing, then the BUYER shall, on the receipt of the SELLER’s telefax or email demand, effect replacement of all or any of them immediately. If the
BUYER fails to do so within Three (3) days of the SELLER’s demand the Delivery Date as stipulated in Article VII hereof shall be extended by the delays so caused by the BUYER. In the event of unfavourable weather on the date specified for
the Trial Run, the same shall take place on the first available day thereafter that the weather conditions permit. The parties hereto recognize that the weather conditions in Chinese waters in which the Trial Run is to take place are such that great
changes in weather may arise momentarily and without warning and, therefore, it is agreed that if during the Trial Run of the VESSEL, the weather should suddenly become unfavourable, as would have precluded the continuance of the Trial Run, the
Trial Run of the VESSEL shall be discontinued and postponed until the first favourable day next following, unless the BUYER shall assent by telefax or email and confirm in writing of its acceptance of the VESSEL on

  

					
	 Date:                     
	  	21/58	  	

			
	 Shipbuilding Contract
	  	Hull No.             

  

 
the basis of the Trial Run made prior to such sudden change in weather conditions. In the event that the Trial Run is postponed because of unfavourable weather conditions, such delay shall be
regarded as a permissible delay, as specified in Article VIII hereof. 
 2. HOW CONDUCTED 

 

	  (a)	 All expenses in connection with Trial Run of the VESSEL are to be for the account of the BUILDER, who, during the Trial Run and when subjecting the
VESSEL to Trial Run, is to provide, at its own expense, the necessary crew to comply with conditions of safe navigation. The Trial Run shall be conducted in the manner prescribed in the Specifications and shall prove fulfilment of the performance
required for the Trial Run as set forth in the Specifications. 

 The course of Trial Run shall be
determined by the BUILDER and shall be conducted within the trial basin equipped with speed measuring facilities. 
  

	  (b)	 The BUILDER shall provide the VESSEL with the required quantities of water, fuel oil and greases with exception of lubrication oil and hydraulic
oil which shall be supplied by the BUYER for the conduct of the Trial Run or Trial Runs as prescribed in the Specifications. The fuel oil and greases supplied by the SELLER, and lubricating oil and hydraulic oil supplied by the BUYER shall be in
accordance with the applicable engine specifications, and the cost of the quantities of water, fuel oil, lubricating oil, hydraulic oil and greases consumed during the Trial Run or Trial Rans shall be for the account of the BUILDER.

 3. TRIAL LOAD DRAFT 

In addition to the supplies provided by the BUYER in accordance with sub-paragraph (b) of the preceding Paragraph 2
hereof, the BUILDER shall provide the VESSEL with the required quantity of fresh water and other stores necessary for the conduct of the Trial Run. The necessary ballast (fresh and sea water and such other ballast as may be required) to bring the
VESSEL to the trial load draft as specified in the Specifications, shall be for the BUILDER’s account. 
 4. METHOD OF ACCEPTANCE OR REJECTION 

 

	  (a)	 Upon notification of the BUILDER of the completion of the Trial Run of the VESSEL, the BUYER or the BUYER’s Supervisor shall within Six
(6) days thereafter, notify the BUILDER by telefax or email confirmed in writing of its acceptance of the VESSEL or of its rejection of the VESSEL together with the reasons therefor.

	  	22/58	  	

			
	 Shipbuilding Contract
	  	Hull No.             

  

	  (b)	 However, should the result of the Trial Run indicate that the VESSEL or any part thereof including its equipment does not conform to the
requirements of this Contract and Specifications, then the BUILDER shall investigate with the Supervisor the cause of failure and the proper steps shall be taken to remedy the same and shall make whatever corrections and alterations and/or
re-Trial Run or Runs as may be necessary without extra cost to the BUYER, and upon notification by the BUILDER of completion of such alterations or corrections and/or re-Trial or re-Trials, the BUYER shall, within Six (6) days thereafter,
notify the SELLER by letter sent by telefax or email of its acceptance of the VESSEL or of the rejection of the VESSEL together with the reason therefor on the basis of the alterations and corrections and/or re-Trial or re-Trials by the BUILDER.

  

	  (c)	 In the event that the BUYER fails to notify the SELLER by letter sent by telefax or email of its acceptance or rejection of the VESSEL together
with the reason therefor within the Six (6) days period as provided for in the above sub-paragraphs (a) arid (b), the BUYER shall be deemed to have accepted the VESSEL. 

 

	  (d)	 Any dispute arising among the parties hereto as to the result of any Trial Run or further tests or trials, as the case may be, of the VESSEL shall
be solved by reference to the Classification Society or arbitration as provided in Article XIII hereof. 

  

	  (e)	 Nothing herein shall preclude the BUYER from accepting the VESSEL with its qualifications and/or remarks following the Trial Run and/or further
tests or trials as aforesaid and the SELLER shall be obliged to comply with and/or remove such qualifications and/or remarks (if such qualifications and/or remarks are acceptable to the SELLER) at the time before effecting delivery of the VESSEL to
the BUYER under this Contract. 

 5. DISPOSITION OF SURPLUS CONSUMABLE STORES 

Should any amount of fuel oil, fresh water, or other unbroached consumable stores furnished by the BUILDER for the Trial Run
or Trial Runs remain on board the VESSEL at the time of acceptance thereof by the BUYER, the BUYER agrees to buy the same from the SELLER at the original price incurred by the BUILDER at the port of delivery thereof, and payment by the BUYER shall
be effected as provided in Article II 3 (d) and 4 (d) of this Contract. 
 The BUYER shall supply lubricating oil
and hydraulic oil for the purpose of Trial Runs at its own expenses and the SELLER will reimburse for the amount of lubricating oil and hydraulic oil actually consumed for the said Trial Run or Trial Runs at the original price

incurred by the BUYER and payment by the SELLER shall be effected as provided in Article 11 3(d) and 4(d) of this Contract. 

6. EFFECT OF ACCEPTANCE 
 The
BUYER’s acceptance of the VESSEL by letter sent by telefax or email notification sent to the SELLER, in accordance with the provisions set out above, shall be final and binding so far as conformity of the VESSEL to this Contract and the
Specifications is concerned, and shall preclude the BUYER from refusing formal delivery by the SELLER of the VESSEL, as hereinafter provided, if the SELLER complies with all other procedural requirements for delivery as hereinafter set forth. 

If, at the time of delivery of the VESSEL, there are deficiencies in the VESSEL, such deficiencies should be resolved in such
way that if the deficiencies are of minor importance, and do not in any way affect the safety or the operation of the VESSEL, its crew, passengers or cargo and provided the Classification Society has issued all certificates under Article VII,
paragraph 3(f) the SELLER shall be nevertheless entitled to tender the VESSEL for delivery and the BUYER shall be nevertheless obliged to take delivery of the VESSEL.

 ARTICLE VIII - DELAYS & EXTENSION OF TIME FOR DELIVERY 

1. CAUSE OF DELAY 
 If, at any
time before actual delivery, either the construction of the VESSEL, or any performance required hereunder as a prerequisite of delivery of the VESSEL, is delayed due to war, blockade, revolution, insurrection, mobilization, civil commotions, riots,
strikes, lockouts (but not strikes or industrial disputes at the BUILDER’s Shipyard or between the SELLER and its employees or any of the SELLER’S sub-contractors and their respective employees), sabotage, local temperature higher than 35
degree centigrade, Acts of God or the public enemy, terrorism, plague or other epidemics, quarantines, prolonged and general failure or restriction of electric current from an outside source, freight embargoes, earthquakes, tidal waves, typhoons,
hurricanes, storms or other causes beyond the control of the BUILDER or of its sub-contractors, as the case may be, or by other causes, events or circumstances beyond control of the SELLER, their respective subcontractors or suppliers, whether of
nature indicated by the forgoing or not, or by destruction of the BUILDER or works of the BUILDER or its sub-contractors, or of the VESSEL or any part thereof, by fire, flood, or other causes beyond the control of the SELLER or its sub-contractors
as the case may be, or due to the bankruptcy of the equipment and/or material supplier or suppliers provided the SELLER has exercised due diligence in its choice of supplier, then, in the event of delay due to the happening of any of the
aforementioned contingencies, the SELLER shall not be liable for such delay and the time for delivery of the VESSEL under this Contract shall be extended without any reduction in the Contract Price for a period of time which shall not exceed the
total accumulated time of all such delays, subject nevertheless to the BUYER’s right of rescission or cancellation under Paragraph 3 of this Article and subject however to all relevant provisions of this Contract which authorize and permit
extension of the time of delivery of the VESSEL. 
 2. NOTICE OF DELAY 

Within Seven (7) days from the date of commencement of any delay on account of which the SELLER claims that it is
entitled under this Contract to an extension of the time for delivery of the VESSEL, the SELLER shall advise the BUYER by letter sent by telefax or email, of the date such delay commenced, and the reasons therefor. 

Likewise within Seven (7) days after such delay ends, the SELLER shall advise the BUYER in writing or by letter sent by
telefax or email, of the date such delay ended, and also shall specify the maximum period of the time by which the date for delivery of the VESSEL is extended by reason of such delay. Failure of the SELLER to act within said time frame shall be
deemed to be a waiver by the SELLER of its right to claim that the delay is permissible. Likewise, Failure of the BUYER to acknowledge the SELLER’s notification of

	  	28/58	  	

			
	 Shipbuilding Contract
	  	Hull No.             

  

 
any claim for extension of the Delivery Date within Thirty (30) days after receipt by the BUYER of such notification, shall be deemed to be a waiver by the BUYER of its right to object to
such extension. 
 3. RIGHT TO RESCIND OR CANCEL FOR EXCESSIVE DELAY 

If the total accumulated time of all delays on account of the causes specified in Paragraph 1 of the Article aggregate to Two
Hundred and Ten (210) days or more, or if the total accumulated time of all delays on account of the causes specified in Paragraph 1 of the Article and non-permissible delays as described in Paragraph 1 of Article III aggregate to Two hundred
and Seventy (270) days or more, in any circumstances, excluding delays due to arbitration as provided for in Article XIII hereof or due to default in performance by the BUYER, or due to delays in delivery of the BUYER’s supplied items, and
excluding delays due to causes which, under Article V, VI, XI and XII hereof, permit extension or postponement of the time for delivery of the VESSEL, then in such event, the BUYER may in accordance with the provisions set out herein rescind or
cancel this Contract by serving upon the SELLER notice of rescission or cancellation by letter sent by telefax or email and the provisions of Article X of this Contract shall apply. The SELLER may, at any time, after the accumulated time of the
aforementioned delays justifying rescission or cancellation by the BUYER as above provided for, demand in writing that the BUYER shall make an election, in which case the BUYER shall, within Thirty (30) days after such demand is received by the
BUYER either notify the SELLER of its intention to rescind or cancel, or consent to an extension of the time for delivery to a mutually agreed future date, it being understood and agreed by the parties hereto that, if any further delay occurs on
account of causes justifying rescission or cancellation as specified in this Contract, the BUYER shall have the same right of rescission or cancellation upon the same terms as hereinabove provided. 

4. DEFINITION OF PERMISSIBLE DELAY 

Delays on account of such causes as provided for in Paragraph 1 of this Article excluding any other extensions of a nature
which under the terms of this Contract permit postponement of the Delivery Date, shall be understood to be (and are herein referred to as) permissible delays, and are to be distinguished from non-permissible delays on account of which the Contract
Price of the VESSEL is subject to adjustment as provided for in Article III hereof.

 ARTICLE IX - WARRANTY OF QUALITY 

1. GUARANTEE OF MATERIAL AND WORKMANSHIP 

The SELLER, for a period of
                     months following delivery to the BUYER of the VESSEL, guarantees the VESSEL, her hull and machinery and all parts and
equipment thereof that are manufactured or furnished or supplied by the SELLER and/or its sub-contractors under this Contract including material, equipment (however excluding any parts for the Vessel which have been supplied by or on behalf of the
BUYER) against all defects which are due to defective materials, installation, construction and/or poor workmanship. 
 2. NOTICE OF DEFECTS 

The BUYER shall notify the SELLER by letter sent by telefax or email, as promptly as possible, after discovery of any defect
or deviations for which a claim is made under this guarantee. The BUYER’S written notice shall describe the nature of the defect and the extent of the damage caused thereby. The SELLER shall have no obligation under this guarantee for any
defects discovered prior to the expiry date of the guarantee, unless notice of such defects, is received by the SELLER not later than Thirty (30) days after such expiry date. Telefax or emailed advice with brief details explaining the nature of
such defect and extent of damage within Thirty (30) days after such expiry date and that a claim is forthcoming will be sufficient compliance with the requirements as to time. 

3. REMEDY OF DEFECTS 
 The
SELLER shall remedy at its expense any defects, against which the VESSEL or any part of the equipment thereof is guaranteed under this Article by making all necessary repairs and/or replacement. Such repairs and/or replacement will be made by the
SELLER. 
 However, if it is impractical to make the repair by the SELLER, and if forwarding by the SELLER of replacement
parts, and materials cannot be accomplished without impairing or delaying the operation or working of the VESSEL, then, in any such event, the BUYER shall, cause the necessary repairs or replacements to be made elsewhere at the discretion of the
BUYER provided that the BUYER shall first and in all circumstances, as soon as possible, give the SELLER notice by telefax or email of the time and place such repairs will be made and, if the VESSEL is not thereby delayed, or her operation or
working is not thereby delayed, or her operation or working is not thereby impaired, the SELLER shall have the

 Exhibit “A”: IRREVOCABLE LETTER OF GUARANTEE NO. 

To: 
 Date: 

Dear Sirs, 
 Irrevocable Letter of Guarantee No. 

At the request of China Shipbuilding Trading Company, Limited and in consideration of your agreeing to pay China Shipbuilding Trading Company,
Limited and CHENGXI SHIPYARD CO., LTD, (hereinafter collectively called “the SELLER”) the instalments before delivery of the VESSEL under the Contract concluded by and amongst you, and the SELLER dated
                     for the construction of one (1) 63,500DWT BULKER CARRIER to be designated as Hull No.
             (as may be amended from time to time, hereinafter called “the Contract”), we, the undersigned,
                     do hereby irrevocably and absolutely guarantee, the due and punctual refund to you by the SELLER of an amount up to but
not exceeding a total amount of United States Dollars                      representing the first instalment of the Contract Price of the VESSEL,
United States Dollars                     , the second instalment of the Contract Price of the VESSEL, United States Dollars
                     and the Third instalment of the Contract Price of the VESSEL, United States Dollars
                     as you may have paid to the SELLER under the Contract prior to the delivery of the VESSEL, if and when the same or any part
thereof becomes refundable to you from the SELLER in accordance with the terms (Article X or Article XII 2(b)) of the Contract. Should the SELLER fail to make such refundment, we shall pay you the amount the SELLER ought to pay with interest at the
rate of Zero percent (0%) per annum if refund is due to you in accordance with the provisions of Article XII 2(b), or Two point Five percent (2.5%) per annum if the said recission or cancellation by the BUYER is made under the provisions of
Article VIII Paragraph 3, or Five percent (5%) per annum if the rescission or cancellation of the Contract is exercised by you in accordance with the provisions of Article III Paragraphs 1(c), 2(c), 3(c) or 4(c) of the Contract and payment will
be made by us within thirty (30) Chinese business days after our receipt of the relevant written demand. 
 Any claim or demand shall
be in writing signed by one of your duly authorised officers and may be served on us either by hand or by registered post and if sent by post to
                                         
                                         
   (or such other address as we may notify to you in writing) or may be sent by authenticated SWIFT notification via your bank to [Bank Namd] to the following SWIFT CODE [SWIFT CODE]. 

However, in the event of any dispute between you and the SELLER in relation to: 

  

					
	 Date: 
	  	52/58	  	

			
	 Shipbuilding Contract
	  	Hull No.             

  

	(1)  	 whether the SELLER shall be liable to repay the instalment or instalments paid by you, and 

 

	(2)  	 consequently whether you shall have the right to demand payment from us, 

and such dispute is submitted either by the SELLER or by you for arbitration in England in accordance with Article XIII of the Contract, we
shall be entitled to withhold and defer payment until the arbitration award is published. We shall not be obligated to make any payment to you unless the arbitration award orders the SELLER to make refundment. If the SELLER fails to honour the award
then we shall refund to you to the extent the arbitration award orders but not exceeding the aggregate amount of this Letter of Guarantee plus the interest described above, without requiring you to take any further enforcement action against the
SELLER. Payment shall be made to you upon receipt by us of a further written demand, with a copy of the final arbitration award (to be sent to us by courier) through your bank. 

Any repayment shall be made by us in freely transferable United States Dollars to an account designated by you. This Letter of Guarantee shall
become effective from the time of the actual receipt of the first instalment by the SELLER from you and the amounts effective under this Letter of Guarantee shall correspond to the total payment actually made by you from time to time under the
Contract prior to the delivery of the VESSEL. However, the available amount under this Letter of Guarantee shall in no event exceed above mentioned amount actually paid to the SELLER, together with interest calculated, as described above at Zero
percent (0%) or, Two point Five percent (2.5%) or, Five percent (5%) per annum, as the case may be for the period commencing with the date of receipt by the SELLER of the respective instalment to the date of payments thereof. 

Our liabilities under this Letter of Guarantee are continuing and shall not be discharged, impaired or diminished by any period of time, grace
period or indulgence granted by you to the SELLER, or by any modification or novation of or amendment or supplement to the Contract (whether or not made with our acknowledgement or consent), or by any illegality, invalidity, irregularity,
unenforceability of any of the terms of the Contract, or by any act, omission, fact or circumstances of whatsoever kind which could or might otherwise in any way discharge any of our liabilities or influence the performance of our obligations
hereunder, or by any insolvency, bankruptcy or liquidation of the SELLER. 
 All payments hereunder shall be made without deduction, set-off
or reduction of any kind and free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any tax or any other governmental or public payment imposed by the laws of any jurisdiction from which or through which such payment is made,
unless a tax deduction or withholding is required by law. If a tax deduction or withholding is required by law to be made by ourselves, the amount 

  

					
	 Date: 
	  	53/58	  	

			
	 Shipbuilding Contract
	  	Hull No.             

  

 of the payment due from us hereunder shall be increased to an amount which (after making any
tax deduction or withholding) leaves an amount equal to the payment which would have been due if no tax deduction or withholding had been required, and we shall make that tax deduction or withholding within the time allowed and in the minimum amount
required by law. 
 Your rights under this Letter of Guarantee may be assigned by you to any commercial bank or other financial institutions
providing financing facilities to you or your parent company with the exception of the right of making demand for payment which shall remain with yourself. 

In case of any above assignment, you are obliged to send a notice of assignment signed by you and assignee to us via courier and confirmed to
us through an authenticated SWIFT notification via your bank, and the assignee shall provide a copy of agreement of assignment to us. The assignment shall not become effective without written acknowledgment from us which shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed. 
 This Letter of Guarantee shall remain in force until the VESSEL has been delivered to and accepted by you or full
refund has been made by the SELLER or ourselves, whichever occurs earlier, after which you are to return it to us by airmail for cancellation, except where this Letter of Guarantee has been issued by authenticated SWIFT via your bank in which case
no return shall be required. 
 Notwithstanding to the above, if an arbitration has been commenced by either you or the SELLER, then the
validity of this Letter of Guarantee shall be automatically extended and shall expire thirty (30) London banking days after the date of the final arbitration award has been published or such later date when full repayment is made to you by the
SELLER or us provided that the arbitration award orders the SELLER to make repayment. 
 With regard to rules, regulations and requirements
of foreign exchanges by State Administration of Foreign Exchange (SAFE) of the People’s Republic of China, i.e. Registration or similar directives, we confirm that we have the necessary authorization to transfer funds out of the People’s
Republic of China and effect payment in United States Dollars as necessary under this Letter of Guarantee. We also confirm that this Letter of Guarantee shall be registered with the relevant SAFE authority. We undertake to maintain all authorisation
and regulation requirements to maintain this Letter of Guarantee and any assignment thereof as valid, effective and enforceable as long as this Letter of Guarantee remains in force. 

This Letter of Guarantee and all non-contractual obligations connected therewith are governed by the Laws of England.
