Rider Clauses 32 to 45
to be deemed incorporated to the 
Bareboat Charter Party
Dated 2nd August 2018
(the "Charter")
Between

BULK PODS LTD., as Charterers
and

S K TRANSPORTATION S.A., as Owners
in respect of the vessel 

MV BULK PODS

 
32.    Delivery
(a)    The Charterers shall take delivery of the Vessel under this Charter simultaneously with delivery by the Charterers as sellers to the Owners as buyers under the MOA, and the Owners shall deliver the Vessel to the Charterers under this Charter in the same moment as the Owners take delivery of the Vessel under the MOA.

In the event that the Vessel is not delivered under the MOA or the MOA is cancelled, terminated or rescinded for any reason, this Charter shall automatically terminate without any liability between the parties hereunder.  

(b)    For the avoidance of doubt, it is acknowledged that the Charterer, at the time of delivery of the Vessel under this Clause 32, owns any bunkers, unused lubricating and hydraulic oils and greases in storage tanks and unopened drums and unused stores and provisions (hereinafter referred to as the "Bunkers") remaining on board the Vessel on the delivery date and as a result the Owner and the Charterer will not settle the Bunkers at the time of delivery of the Vessel under this Charter.

		
	33.
	Conditions for delivery   

Prior to delivery of the Vessel under this Charter, the parties shall exchange the following documents: 

		
	(i)
	One (1) original Certificate of Good Standing or Secretarial Certificate, stating all Directors;  

		
	(ii)
	certified copies of the corporate resolutions of the Owners and the Charterers approving the contents of and the entering into of the Charter and MOA;

		
	(iii)
	original, notarised and apostilled Power of Attorney granted by the Owners and the Charterers with respect to the representative(s) at closing and the persons signing this Charter and the MOA; 

		
	(iv)
	Such other documents as each of the Owner and Charterer may reasonably require. 

34.    Vessel’s condition on delivery 
The Vessel shall be delivered under this Charter in the same condition and with the same equipment, inventory and spare parts as she is delivered to the Owners under the MOA. The Charterers know the Vessel’s condition 

at the time of delivery, and expressly agree that the Vessel's condition as delivered under the MOA is acceptable and in accordance with the provisions of this Charter.  The Vessel shall be delivered to the Charterers under the Charter strictly "as is/where is", and the Charterers, throughout the Charter period, shall have no claim against the Owners under this Charter or otherwise as a result of the Vessel’s physical condition.
    
		
	35.
	Inspection on re-delivery of the Vessel (see also clauses 7)

In connection with the redelivery of the Vessel under the Charter, the Vessel shall not be dry-docked unless required by the Classification Society. 

In lieu of dry-docking, Owners shall have the right to appoint a diver acceptable to the Classification Society to undertake an underwater inspection at a convenient port with due consultation between Owners and Charterers. Such divers’ inspection shall be carried out at Owners’ expense (unless damage affecting the class is found, in which case the Charterers shall bear the cost) and without interference to the Vessel’s normal operation.

Should such underwater inspection reveal damages that affect the class of the Vessel whereby such damage repairs cannot be made to the Vessel without dry-docking and the Classification Society will not grant an extension, then Vessel is to be dry-docked as soon as possible by Charterers to repair such damages to the Classification Society’s satisfaction at Charterers’ time and expense.

If in the opinion of the Classification Society the damages do not necessitate immediate dry-docking, then the Classification Society shall issue a certificate showing the extent and place of damage and Charterers shall repair same to the satisfaction of the Classification Society at next dry-docking, provided that such dry-docking is within the Charter Period. If the next Classification Society dry-docking is after the re-delivery of the Vessel under this Charter, the Charterers shall in their option (i) repair such damages before redelivery of the Vessel hereunder or (ii) provide the Owners with an agreed lump sum, (the Charterers and the Owners shall each select a reputable shipyard in the redelivery range and obtain from such shipyard a quotation for the cost of repairs of the damage. The estimated cost of repairs shall be refined as the average of the two quotations obtained from the two shipyards), a first class bank guarantee or sum a cash deposit to be provided, in the Charterers’ option, covering the expected costs of such repairs.

This Clause 35 shall not apply if the Charterers exercise their purchase option as set out in Clause 39.

The Vessel with everything belonging to her shall be at the Charterers’ risk and expense until she is redelivered to the Owners, but subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement she shall be redelivered and taken over as she was at the time of joint surveys in accordance with clause 7 in this agreement, fair wear and tear excepted.
 
36.    Familiarisation
The Owners shall have a right to place two representatives on board the Vessel for familiarisation purposes twenty one (21) days prior to the redelivery of the Vessel to Owners under this charter.  These representatives shall sign the Charterers’ usual indemnity form. 

This Clause 36 shall not apply if the Charterers exercise their purchase option as set out in Clause 39.

37.    Owners’ Assignment, Performance Guarantee and Quiet Enjoyment Letter
The Owners shall have the right to assign to any and all mortgagees of the Vessel who are banks financing the Vessel any and all of the rights, benefits and interest of the Owners in and to this Charter, including but not limited to assignments of earnings and assignment of this Charter.

The Charterers is entitled to require a quiet enjoyment letter from the financiers of the Owners, in customary form for these transactions, and the Owners shall also agree to issue a quiet enjoyment letter to the Charterers.  

Provided no event of default has occurred and is continuing under this Charter, the Owner undertakes that it will not interfere with the quiet use, operation, possession or enjoyment of the Vessel.

The performance of the Chartereres hereunder shall be guaranteed by Pangaea Logistics Solutions Ltd., whereas the performance of the Owners shall be guaranteed by Esuke Unyu. Ltd. The guarantees shall be in the format attached hereto as appendix B. 

38.    Transfer of the Vessel

Such right shall be subject to (i) the prior written consent of each of the Parties respectively, such consent not be unreasonable withheld, and (ii) that the guarantees granted by Pangaea Logistics Solutions Ltd. and Esuke Unyu. Ltd. shall continue to remain in full force and effect irrespective of the said assignment(s) under the Charter. Each Party shall bear their own costs related to such assignment.

If, as a result of a change in law relating specifically to the circumstances of the Charterers and/or the Owners after the date of this Charter there would be material adverse economic consequences to the Charterers of them continuing to perform their obligations under the Charter the Charterers shall have the option, to novate this Charter to an Affiliate provided always that, notwithstanding such novation, this Charter would continue on identical terms (save for logical, consequential or mutually agreed amendments) and the Charter Guarantor shall remain jointly and severally liable with such Affiliate to the Owners for performance of all obligations by such Affiliate pursuant to this Charter after such novation.
    
The Charterers agree and undertake to enter into (and procure that such Affiliate and the Charter Guarantor enter into) or deliver to the Owners any such documents as the Owners (at its sole discretion) shall require in connection with such novation, including but not limited to such additional Security Documents and legal opinions as the Owners may require.
