      approximate operating cost for the vessel, from the date of the actual
      redelivery in November 2008 through March 1, 2009. We received payment in

      charter to BHP Billiton at a gross time charter equivalent rate, or TCE
      rate, of approximately $14,100 per day, resulting in revenue for the
      vessel that is effectively higher than it would have been under the
      original charter at the rate of $100,000 per day.&#160;&#160;We calculate

      charter equivalent revenue by voyage days for the relevant time

December 2008, we entered into two freight forward agreements,&#160;or
FFAs,&#160;on the Capesize index totaling 360 calendar days in 2009 with an
average rate of approximately $19,900 per day. The Capesize index refers to the
daily hire rate of a modern Capesize dry bulk carrier. The contracts are
intended to serve as an approximate hedge for one of our Capesize vessels
trading in the spot market for 2009, effectively locking-in the approximate
amount of revenue that we expect to receive from such vessel for the period. We
also entered into FFA contracts on the Capesize index totaling 60 calendar days
in 2010 with an average rate of approximately $25,225 per day. All of our FFA
transactions are cleared through LCH Clearnet Group and are intended as
approximate hedges to our physical exposure in the spot market. Generally, FFAs
and other derivative instruments may be used to hedge a vessel owner&#8217;s exposure
to the charter market for a specified route and period of time. Upon settlement,
if the contracted charter rate is less than the average of the rates, as
reported by an identified index, for the specified route and time period, the
seller of the FFA is required to pay the buyer an amount equal to the difference
between the contracted rate and the settlement rate, multiplied by the number of
days in the specified period. Conversely, if the contracted rate is greater than
the settlement rate, the buyer is required to pay the seller the settlement
sum.</font></div>
