	 	(a)	 Until all moneys, obligations and liabilities due, owing or incurred by the Borrowers to the Bank under this Agreement and the other Security
Documents have been paid or discharged in full, each Borrower agrees not to exercise or enforce any rights of subrogation or indemnity or any other right which otherwise it has against the other Borrower and agrees not to claim any set-off or
counterclaim against the other Borrower or to claim or prove in competition with the Bank in the event of bankruptcy, insolvency or liquidation of the other Borrower or have any benefit of or any share in any guarantee or security now or hereafter
held by the Bank. 

  

	 	(b)	 Neither of the Borrowers has taken or received, and each Borrower undertakes 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, it will not take or receive, any security or lien from the other Borrower in respect of borrowing as co-borrower jointly and severally liable or for
any liability whatsoever. 

  

	2.12	 Interest to co-borrow 

The Borrowers have an interest in borrowing jointly and severally in that they are companies which belong to the same group
of companies and 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 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 Bank to be the aggregate of (i) the Margin

  
 12 

 
and (ii) LIBOR, unless there is an Agreed Rate in which case the interest rate for the calculation of interest shall be the rate per annum determined by the Bank to be the aggregate of
(i) the Margin and (ii) the Agreed Rate. 
  

	3.2	 Interest Period 

The Borrowers may by notice received by the Bank not later than 10 a.m. (London time) on the third Banking Day before the
beginning of each Interest Period specify (subject to Clause 3.3 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
subject to Bank’s approval and market availability), Provided however that each Interest Period shall terminate on an Interest Payment Date. 
  

	3.3	 Duration of Interest Period 

Every Interest Period shall, subject to market availability to be conclusively determined by the Bank, be of the duration
specified by the Borrowers pursuant to Clause 3.2 but so that: 
  

	 	(a)	 the initial Interest Period in respect of the Loan (or, as the case may be, of each Advance) will commence on the date on which the Commitment
or, as the case may be, the relevant Advance is advanced and each subsequent Interest Period will commence forthwith upon the expiry of the previous Interest Period; 

 

	 	(b)	 in case that the Commitment is advanced by more than one Advances, the initial Interest Period in respect of each Advance after the first Advance
shall end on the same day as the then current Interest Period for the Loan; 

  

	 	(c)	 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(s) of the Repayment Instalment(s) 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 and the other provisions of
this Clause 3.3; 

  

	 	(d)	 if the Borrowers fail to specify the duration of an Interest Period in accordance with the provisions of Clause 3.2 and this Clause 3.3, such
Interest Period shall have a duration of three (3) months unless another period shall be determined by the Bank at its sole discretion provided always that such period (whether of three (3) months or of different duration) shall comply
with this Clause 3.3; and 

  

	 	(e)	 if the Bank determines in a reasonable manner that the duration of an Interest Period specified by the Borrowers in accordance with Clause 3.2 is
not readily available, then that Interest Period shall have such duration as the Bank, may determine. 

Provided always that: 
  

	 	(i)	 any Interest Period which commences on the last day of a calendar month, and any Interest Period which commences on the day on which there is no
numerically corresponding day in the calendar month during which such Interest Period is due to end, shall end on the last Banking Day of the calendar month during which such Interest Period is due to end; and 

 

	 	(ii)	 if the last day of an Interest Period is not a Banking Day the Interest Period shall be extended until the next following Banking Day unless such
next following Banking Day falls in the next calendar month in 

  
 13 

	 	 
which case such Interest Period shall be shortened to expire on the preceding Banking Day. 

  

	3.4	 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 Security 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 Bank 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 one (1) month as selected by the Bank each of which (other than the first, which shall commence on such due date)
shall commence on the last day of the preceding such period. The rate of interest applicable to each such period shall be the aggregate (as determined by the Bank) of (i) two per cent (2%), per annum, (ii) the Margin and (iii) costs
of funds to the Bank as conclusively determined by the Bank save in the case of manifest error or in the case of dishonesty or wilful misconduct of the officers or employees of the Bank. Such interest shall be due and payable on the last day of each
such period as determined by the Bank and each such day shall, for the purposes of this Agreement, be treated as an Interest Payment Date. Interest payable by the Borrowers as aforesaid shall be compounded as provided by law and shall be payable on
demand. 
  

	3.5	 Notification of Interest 

The Bank 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 Bank to make determinations at its sole discretion. In case that the Bank fails to notify the Borrowers as above, such failure will not affect the validity of the determination of the
Interest Period and Interest Rate made pursuant to this Clause 3 and neither constitute nor will be interpreted as if to constitute a breach of obligation of the Bank except in case of wilful misconduct or gross negligence. 

 

	3.6	 Market disruption- Non availability 

(a) Notification of market disruption. The Bank shall promptly notify the Borrowers if no rate is quoted on Reuters BBA Page
LIBOR 01 or the Bank 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 Interbank
Rate or if for any reason the Bank is unable to obtain Dollars in the London Interbank Market in order to fund the Loan (or any part of it) during any Interest Period, stating the circumstances which have caused such notice to be given. 

(b) Suspension of drawdown. If the Bank’s notice under Clause 3.06 (a) is served before an Advance is made, the
Bank’s obligation to make that Advance shall be suspended while the circumstances referred to in the Bank’s notice continue. 

(c) Negotiation of alternative rate of interest. If the Bank’s notice under Clause 3.06 (a) is served after an Advance
is made, the Bank shall set an interest period and an interest rate representing the cost of funding of the Bank in Dollars of the Loan plus the applicable Margin; before the lapse of the set interest period, and within 30 days after the date on
which the Bank serves its notice under Clause 3.06 (a) (the “Negotiation Period”), the Borrowers and the Bank shall use reasonable endeavours to agree an alternative interest rate or (as the case may be) an alternative
basis for the Bank to fund or continue to fund the Loan during the Interest Period concerned. 

  
 14 

 (d) Application of agreed alternative rate of interest. Any alternative interest
rate or an alternative basis which is agreed during the Negotiation Period shall take effect in accordance with the terms agreed. 
 (e)
Alternative rate of interest in absence of agreement. 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 Bank shall again set an interest period and interest rate representing the cost of funding of the Bank in Dollars or in any available currency of the Loan plus the applicable Margin; and the procedure provided for by this Clause 3.06
(e) shall be repeated if the relevant circumstances are continuing at the end of the interest period so set by the Bank. 
 (f)
Notice of prepayment. If the Borrowers do not agree with an interest rate set by the Bank under Clause 3.06 (e), the Borrowers may give the Bank not less than 15 Banking Days’ notice of their intention to prepay at the end of
the interest period set by the Bank. 
 (g) Prepayment. A notice under Clause 3.06 (f) shall be irrevocable; and on the
last Banking Day of the interest period set by the Bank, the Borrowers shall prepay (without premium or penalty) the Loan, together with accrued interest thereon at the applicable rate plus the applicable Margin. 

(h) Application of prepayment. The provisions of Clause 4.03 shall apply in relation to the prepayment.

(bb) in case the Commitment or any part thereof has been already advanced, the amount of the Loan shall, on expiry of a
period of one hundred and eighty (180) days following the occurrence of such Total Loss or the date on which the relevant Vessel suffered damage or the incident which, in the reasonable opinion of the Bank, may result in such Vessel being

(ii) The Bank shall notify to the Borrowers the total additional amounts payable pursuant to the provisions
of this Clause 4.3(A) within 30 days of the relevant Vessel becoming a Total Loss or suffering damage or being involved in an incident which, in the reasonable opinion of the Bank, may result in the such Vessel being subsequently determined to be a
Total Loss, and the Borrowers shall thereupon be obliged to make such repayment of the Loan and payment of interest and other monies as aforesaid. 

(iii) For the purpose of this Clause 4.3: 

(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 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 of such Vessel is

thereof to the insurers of such Vessel, at the date and time on which the incident which may result, in the reasonable opinion of the Bank, in such Vessel being subsequently determined to be a Total Loss occurred; 

(cc) in the case of a compromised or arranged total loss of a Vessel, on the date on which the incident which may result, in
the reasonable opinion of the Bank, in such Vessel being subsequently determined to be a Total Loss occurred; 
 (dd) in
the case of Compulsory Acquisition of a Vessel, on the date upon which the relevant requisition of title or other compulsory acquisition of such Vessel occurs; and 

(ee) in the case of hijacking, theft, condemnation, capture, seizure, arrest, detention or confiscation of a Vessel (other
than where the same amounts to Compulsory Acquisition of a Vessel) by any Government Entity, or by persons purporting to act on behalf of any Government Entity, which deprives the relevant Owner of the use of such Vessel for more than 60 days, upon
the expiry of the period of 60 days after the date upon which the relevant hijacking, theft, condemnation, capture, seizure, arrest, detention or confiscation occurred.

the aggregate Market Value of all the Vessels determined in accordance with Clause 8.5(c) hereof immediately before the Total Loss or, as the case may be, the sale or other disposal of the relevant Vessel; 

(iii) the amount which is required to be repaid to the Bank so that after the payment of the Required Amount to the Bank the
Market Value of the Vessel remaining mortgaged to the Bank determined in accordance with Clause 8.5(c) hereof immediately before the Total Loss or, as the case may be, the sale or other disposal of the relevant Vessel (together with the value in
Dollars of and any additional security given under Clause 8.5(c) and accepted by the Bank) is at least equal to or in excess of the Security Requirement. 

Provided however that if the relevant Vessel so lost or sold or otherwise disposed of is the last Vessel pursuant to this
Agreement, then the full amount of the insurance or, as the case may be, the sale proceeds shall be applied against repayment of the Outstanding Indebtedness and, in case of shortfall, the Borrowers shall pay to the Bank the balance (if any) of the
Outstanding Indebtedness. 
 Any amount prepaid in accordance with Clause 4.3(A) and (B) which is less than the whole

limitation, upon a Total Loss or sale in accordance with clause 4.3, then subject to clause 4.5(b) the Bank shall be entitled but not obliged (and, where relevant, may do so without the consent of the Borrowers, where it would otherwise be required
whether under the Master Agreement or otherwise) to amend, supplement, cancel, net out, terminate, liquidate, transfer or assign all or any part of the rights, benefits and obligations created by any Transaction and/or the Master Agreement and/or to
obtain or re establish any hedge or related trading position in any manner and with any person the Bank in its absolute discretion may determine and both the Bank’s and the Borrowers’ continuing obligations under any Transaction and/or the
Master Agreement shall, unless agreed otherwise by the Bank, be calculated so far as the Bank considers it practicable by reference to the amended repayment schedule for the Loan taking into account the fact that less than the full amount of the
Loan remains outstanding. 

  

	 	(b)	 If less than the full amount of the Loan remains outstanding following a prepayment under this Agreement and the Bank in its absolute discretion
agrees, following a written request of the Borrowers, that the Borrowers may be 

  
 18 

	 	 
permitted to maintain all or part of a Transaction in an amount not wholly matched with or linked to all or part of the Loan, the Borrowers shall within ten (10) days of being notified by
the Bank of such requirement, provide the Bank with, or procure the provision to the Bank of, such additional security as shall in the opinion of the Bank be adequate to secure the performance of such Transaction, which additional security shall
take such form, be constituted by such documentation and be entered into between such parties, as the Bank in its absolute discretion may approve or require, and each document comprising such additional security shall constitute a Credit Support
Document. 

  

	 	(c)	 The Borrowers shall on the first written demand of the Bank indemnify the Bank in respect of all losses, costs and expenses (including, but not
limited to, legal costs and expenses) incurred or sustained by the Bank as a consequence of or in relation to the effecting of any matter or transactions referred to in this clause 4.5. 

 

	 	(d)	 Notwithstanding any provision of the Master Agreement to the contrary, if for any reason, a Transaction has been entered into but no Advance is
drawn down under this Agreement then, subject to clause 4.5(e) the Bank shall be entitled but not obliged (and, where relevant, may do so without the consent of the Borrowers where it would otherwise be required whether under the Master Agreement or
otherwise) to amend, supplement, cancel, net out, terminate, liquidate, transfer or assign all or any part of the rights, benefits and obligations created by such Transaction and/or the Master Agreement and/or to obtain or re-establish any hedge or
related trading position in any manner and with any person the Bank in its absolute discretion may determine. 

  

	 	(e)	 If a Transaction has been entered into but no Advance is drawn down under this Agreement and the Bank in its absolute discretion agrees,
following a written request of the Borrowers, that the Borrowers may be permitted to maintain all or part of a Transaction, the Borrowers shall within ten (10) days of being notified by the Bank of such requirement, provide the Bank with, or
procure the provision to the Bank of, such additional security as shall in the opinion of the Bank be adequate to secure the performance of such Transaction, which additional security shall take such form, be constituted by such documentation and be
entered into between such parties, as the Bank in its absolute discretion may approve or require, and each document comprising such additional security shall constitute a Credit Support Document for the purposes of the Master Agreement and/or
otherwise. 

  

	 	(f)	 Without prejudice to or limitation of the obligations of the Borrowers under clause 4.5(c), in the event that the Bank exercises any of its
rights under clauses 4.5(a), 4.5(b) or 4.5(d) and such exercise results in all or part of a Transaction being terminated such termination shall be treated under the Master Agreement in the same manner as if it were a Terminated Transaction (as
defined in section 14 of the Master Agreement) effected by the Bank after an Event of Default (as so defined in that section 14) by the Borrowers and, accordingly, the Bank shall be permitted to recover from the Borrowers a payment for early
termination calculated in accordance with the provisions of section 6(e)(i) of the Master Agreement. 

 No Transaction
under Clause 4.5 will be entered into without the specific consent of the Borrowers.

	5.	 PAYMENTS, TAXES AND COMPUTATION 

  

	5.1	 Payment - No set-off or Counterclaims 

  

	 	(a)	 The Borrowers hereby jointly and severally acknowledge that in performing their respective obligations under this Agreement and the Master
Agreement, the Bank will be 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 Bank and that it is reasonable for the Bank to be entitled
to receive payments from the Borrowers gross on the due date in order that the Bank is put in a position to perform its matching obligations to the relevant third parties. Accordingly, all payments to be made by the Borrowers under this Agreement,
the Master Agreement and/or any of the other Security Documents shall be made in full, without any set-off or counterclaim whatsoever and, subject as provided in Clause 5.3, free and clear of any deductions or withholdings or Governmental
Withholdings whatsoever, as follows: 

  

	 	(i)	 in Dollars, not later than 10.00 a.m. (London time) on the Banking Day (in London, New York City, Paris, Athens and Piraeus) on which the
relevant payment is due under the terms of this Agreement; and 

  

	 	(ii)	 to the Receiving Bank. 

Provided however, that the Bank shall have the right to change the place of account for payment, upon fifteen
(15) Banking Days’ prior written notice to the Borrowers. 
  

	 	(b)	 If at any time it shall become unlawful or impracticable for the Borrowers (or any of them) to make payment under this Agreement or the Master
Agreement to the relevant account or bank referred to in Clause 5.1(a), the Borrowers may request and the Bank may agree to alternative arrangements for the payment of the amounts due by the Borrowers to the Bank under this Agreement, the Master
Agreement or the other Security Documents. 

  

	5.2	 Payments on Banking Days 

All payments due shall be made on a Banking Day. If the due date for payment falls on a day which is not a Banking Day, the
payment or payments due shall be made on the first Banking Day thereafter, provided that this falls in the same calendar month. If it does not, payments shall fall due and be made on the last Banking Day before the said due date. 

 

	5.3	 Gross Up  

  

	 	(a)	 If at any time any law, regulation, regulatory requirement or requirement of any governmental authority, monetary agency, central bank or the
like compels the Borrowers to make payment subject to Governmental Withholdings, or any other deduction or withholding, the Borrowers shall pay to the Bank such additional amounts as may be necessary to ensure that there will be received by the Bank
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 Bank against any losses or costs incurred
by the Bank 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 Bank official receipts and any other documentary receipts and any other documentary evidence reasonably required by the Bank in respect of the payment made or to
be made of any deduction or withholding or Governmental Withholding. The obligations of the Borrowers 

  
 20 

	 	 
under this provision shall, subject to applicable law, remain in force notwithstanding the repayment of the Loan and the payment of all interest due thereon pursuant to the provisions of this
Agreement. 

  

	 	(b)	 For the avoidance of doubt, Clause 5.3(a) does not apply in respect of sums due from the Borrowers to the Bank under or in connection with the
Master Agreement as to which sums the provisions of section 2(d) (Deduction or Withholding for Tax) of the Master Agreement shall apply. 

  

	5.4	 Loan Account 

All sums advanced by the Bank to the Borrowers under this Agreement and all interest accrued thereon and all other amounts
due under this Agreement and/or the Master Agreement from time to time and all repayments and/or payments thereof shall be debited and credited respectively to a separate loan account maintained by the Bank in accordance with its usual practices in
the name of the Borrowers. The Bank may, however, in accordance with its usual practices or for its accounting needs, maintain more than one accounts, consolidate or separate them but all such accounts shall be considered parts of one 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 and the Master Agreement, the account(s) referred to in this Clause shall be the Account Current
referred to in such mortgage. 
  

	5.5	 Evidence - Certificates conclusive 

The Borrowers hereby jointly and severally expressly agree and admit that abstracts or photocopies or other reproductions of
the books of the Bank as well as statements of accounts or a certificate signed by an authorised officer of the Bank shall (save for manifest error) be conclusive binding and full evidence on the Borrowers (and each of them) as to the existence
and/or the amount of the at any time Outstanding Indebtedness, of any amount due under this Agreement and/or the Master Agreement, of the applicable interest rate or Default Rate or any other rate provided for or referred to in this Agreement and/or
the Master Agreement, the Interest Period, the value of additional securities under Clause 8.5(c), the payment or non payment of any amount and/or the occurrence of any other Event of Default. Any certificate or determination of the Bank as to any
rate of interest or any other amount pursuant to and for the purposes of any of the Security Documents shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers. 

 

	5.6	 Computation  

All interest and other payments payable by reference to a rate per annum under this Agreement shall accrue from day to day
and be calculated on the basis of actual days elapsed and a 360 day year. 
  

	6.	 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 

  

	6.1	 Continuing representations and warranties 

The Borrowers jointly and severally represent and warrant to the Bank that;

The Bank may at any time, assign, transfer, or offer participation to other banks or financial institutions, in whole or in
part, or in any manner dispose of all or any of its rights and/or obligations arising or accruing under this Agreement or any of the other Security Documents or any documents executed pursuant to this Agreement and/or the other Security Documents
provided that the Bank shall have given to the Borrowers at least fifteen (15) days prior notice of such assignment or transfer or participation. The Bank may disclose to a potential assignee, transferee or participant or to any other person
who may propose entering into contractual relations with the Bank in relation to this Agreement such information about the Borrowers and the Security Parties as the Bank shall consider appropriate (with the prior consent of the Borrowers, such

	13.4	 Documentation 

If the Bank assigns, transfers or in any other manner grants participation in respect of all or any part of its rights or
benefits or transfers all or any of its obligations as provided in this Clause 13.4 each of the Borrowers undertakes, immediately on being requested to do so by the Bank, to enter into and procure that each Security Party enters into such documents
as may be necessary or desirable to transfer to the assignee, transferee or participant all or the relevant part of the interest of the Bank in the Security Documents and all relevant references in this Agreement to the Bank shall thereafter be
construed as a reference to the Bank and/or assignee, transferee or participant of the Bank to the extent of their respective interests and, in the case of a transfer of all or part of the obligations of the Bank, the Borrowers shall thereafter look
only to the assignee, transferee or participant in respect of that proportion of the obligations of the Bank under this Agreement assumed by such assignee, transferee or participant. The Borrowers hereby expressly consent to any subsequent transfer
of the rights and obligations of the Bank and undertake that they shall join in and execute such supplemental or substitute agreements as may be necessary to enable the Bank to assign and/or transfer and/or grant participation in respect of its

	14.2	 Waivers 

No delay or omission by the Bank to exercise any right, remedy or power vested in the Bank under this Agreement and/or the

power, right or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power, right or remedy. In the event of the Bank on any occasion agreeing to waive any such right, remedy or power, or consenting to any departure
from the strict application of the provisions of this Agreement or of any other Security Document, such waiver shall not in any way prejudice or affect the powers conferred upon the Bank under this Agreement and the other Security Documents or the
right of the Bank thereafter to act strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Security Documents. No modification or waiver by the Bank of any provision of this Agreement or of any of the other Security Documents nor any

concurrently or not. 

  

	 	(c)	 The parties further agree that subject to Clause 16.2(b) the Courts of England shall have exclusive jurisdiction to determine any claim which the
Borrowers (or any of them) may have against the Bank arising out of or in connection with this Agreement and each of the Borrowers hereby waives any objections to proceedings with respect to this Agreement in such courts on the grounds of venue or
inconvenient forum.

the jurisdiction or any claim as to the inconvenience of the forum is hereby waived by each of the Borrowers and it is agreed and undertaken by each of 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 each of the Borrowers agrees that any judgement or order obtained in an English court shall be conclusive and binding on the
Borrowers (and each of them) and shall be enforceable without review in the courts of any other jurisdiction.
