ADDENDUM NO. 2

 

ADDENDUM NO. 2 to the Corporate Administration Agreement dated 17th December 2013 as amended on 25th March 2014 (the “CAA”) between NAVIG8 CRUDE TANKERS INC (to be renamed GENER8 MARITIME SUBSIDIARY INC) (“Owner”) and NAVIG8 ASIA PTE LTD (“NAVIG8”)

 

WHEREAS

 

A.            It is intended that Mr Daniel Chu and Mr Philip Stone, being respectively secretary and treasurer of the Owner and each of its subsidiaries, will resign from these positions on the date hereof and will be replaced by nominees of the Owner.

 

IT IS HEREBY AGREED BETWEEN OWNER AND NAVIG8 THAT

 

1.                                      Notwithstanding the resignations and new appointments described above in recital (A), it is agreed by both parties that it is not a requirement under the CAA that the positions of secretary or treasurer of the Owner (and its subsidiaries) be held by nominees of NAVIG8.

 

2.                                      Notwithstanding the resignations and new appointments described above in recital (A), each of the parties agree that the CAA will continue in full force and effect. Without limiting the foregoing, NAVIG8 shall continue to perform the Administrative Services and Owner shall not take any action which would prevent NAVIG8 (and its representatives) from performing the Administrative Services in accordance with the terms of the CAA.

 

3.                                      For the avoidance of doubt, this Addendum does not constitute a waiver by either Party of their rights under the CAA and all other terms and conditions contained within the CAA shall remain unaffected and in full force and effect.

 

4.                                      This Addendum shall be governed by and construed in accordance with English law, and the provisions of section 14 of the CAA shall apply to this Addendum as if it was incorporated herein with logical amendments.
