* The above table excludes mention of the lessor variable interest entity (“lessor VIE”) that we have leased a vessel from under a finance lease. The lessor VIE is wholly-owned, newly formed special purpose vehicle (“SPV”) of a financial institution. While we do not hold any equity investment in this SPV, we have concluded that we are the primary beneficiary of the lessor VIE and accordingly have consolidated this entity into our financial results.
