international shipping company with extensive operational experience that owns and operates a fleet of dry bulk carrier vessels. On a fully delivered basis, we will have a fleet of 69 vessels consisting primarily of Capesize as well as Kamsarmax,
Ultramax and Supramax vessels with a carrying capacity between 52,000 dwt and 209,000 dwt. Our fleet includes our 33 existing vessels, including two vessels we expect to receive from Heron (as defined below) and 36 vessels currently under
construction at leading shipyards in Japan and China. Our vessels transport a broad range of major and minor bulk commodities, including ores, coal, grains and fertilizers, along worldwide shipping routes. Our highly experienced executive management
team, with a combined 120 years of shipping industry experience, is led by Mr.&nbsp;Petros Pappas, who has more than 35 years of shipping industry experience and has managed more than 230 vessel acquisitions and dispositions. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On July&nbsp;11, 2014, we closed transactions with entities affiliated with Oaktree Capital Management, L.P. and the family of
Mr.&nbsp;Pappas, in which we acquired Oceanbulk Carriers LLC and Oceanbulk Shipping LLC (collectively &#147;Oceanbulk&#148;), two entities affiliated with the family of Mr.&nbsp;Pappas as well as a loan that is expected to be converted into a 50%
interest in a joint venture, Heron Ventures Limited (&#147;Heron&#148;) (collectively, the &#147;Transactions&#148;). As a result of the Transactions, we have added to our fleet 16 operating vessels (including one vessel, <I>Peloreus</I>, that was
under contract and delivered on July&nbsp;22, 2014, and two vessels we expect to have distributed to us by Heron in the near future), with an average age of 5.5 years as of August&nbsp;1, 2014 and an aggregate capacity of approximately
1.9&nbsp;million dwt, and contracts for the construction of 25 vessels under construction, which have an aggregate capacity of approximately 3.6&nbsp;million dwt. In connection with the Transactions, Mr.&nbsp;Pappas became our Chief Executive
Officer, and our former Chief Executive Officer, Mr.&nbsp;Spyros Capralos, became our Non-Executive Chairman. See &#147;&#151;The Transactions.&#148; </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our existing fleet of 33 vessels (which includes two vessels to be received from Heron), has an aggregate capacity of approximately
3.5&nbsp;million dwt, and we have under contract 36 of the latest generation &#147;Eco-type&#148; vessels, which we define as vessels that are designed to be more fuel-efficient than standard vessels of similar size and age. As of August&nbsp;1,
2014, we had binding and committed financing with respect to 17 of our newbuilding vessels and were in the final stages of negotiation with respect to financing for another eight of our newbuilding vessels. By the end of the second quarter of 2016,
we expect our fleet to consist of 69 wholly owned vessels, with an average age of 5.1 years and an aggregate capacity of 8.7&nbsp;million dwt. As of August&nbsp;1, 2014, the average age of our existing fleet was 7.3 years. On a fully delivered basis
and based on publicly available information, we believe our fleet will make us the largest publicly traded dry bulk shipping company by deadweight tonnage. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our fleet is well-positioned to take advantage of economies of scale in commercial, technical and procurement management, with 30 of our 36
newbuilding vessels to be delivered during 2014 and 2015. For both our existing fleet and our newbuildings, we have focused on vessels built at leading Japanese and Chinese shipyards, which, in our experience, are more reliable and less expensive to
operate and are accordingly preferred by charterers. Currently, because of prevailing market conditions, we primarily employ our vessels in the spot market, under short term time charters or voyage charters. While employing the vessels under a
voyage charter </P>

may require more management attention than under time charters, the vessel owner benefits from any fuel savings it can achieve because fuel is paid for by the vessel owner. On a fully-delivered
basis, we will have a large, modern, fuel-efficient and high-quality fleet, which emphasizes the largest Eco-type Capesize and Newcastlemax vessels, built at leading shipyards and featuring the latest technology. As a result, we believe we will have
an opportunity to capitalize on rising market demand during a period of reduced fleet growth, customer preferences for our ships and economies of scale, while enabling us to capture the benefits of fuel cost savings through spot time charters or
voyage charters. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As of August&nbsp;1, 2014, the total payments for our 36 newbuilding vessels were expected to be $1,556.2 million, of
which we had already paid $224.5 million. As of August&nbsp;1, 2014, we had already obtained commitments for $562.7 million of debt financing for 17 vessels and were in the final stages of negotiations for $149.8 million of debt financing for eight
vessels. We intend to finance the remaining 11 vessels with a combination of the proceeds from debt and equity financings, as market conditions permit. There is no guarantee that we will be able to obtain such additional financing. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our founder and Chief Executive Officer, Mr.&nbsp;Pappas, has an established track record in the dry bulk industry, with more than 35 years of
experience and more than 230 vessel acquisitions and dispositions. Entities under his management and control owned up to 30 vessels in 2001, most of which were acquired during the first quarter of 1997, the second quarter of 1998 and the second
quarter of 2001, periods corresponding to low asset values and freight rates. Substantially all of the vessels were sold by the end of 2005, during a period of vessel values and levels of the Baltic Dry Index (&#147;BDI&#148;) (a daily average of
charter rates for key dry bulk routes) that were record highs at the time. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As further described under &#147;Business Overview&#151;Our
Chief Executive Officer and His Track Record,&#148; Mr.&nbsp;Pappas has extensive experience in operating and investing in shipping, including through his principal shipping operations and investment vehicle, Oceanbulk Maritime S.A. (&#147;Oceanbulk
Maritime&#148;). </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="center"><B>Our Fleet </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We have built a fleet through timely and selective acquisitions of secondhand and newbuilding vessels. Because of the industry reputation and
extensive relationships of Mr.&nbsp;Pappas and the other members of our senior management, we have been able to contract for our newbuilding vessels with leading shipyards at prices that we believe reflect the recent bulk shipping downturn. We
believe that owning a modern, well-maintained fleet reduces operating costs, improves the quality of service we deliver and provides us with a competitive advantage in securing favorable spot time charters and voyage charters with high-quality
counterparties. Each of our newbuilding vessels will be equipped with a vessel remote monitoring system that will provide data to a central location in order to monitor fuel and lubricant consumption and efficiency on a real-time basis. We expect to
retrofit all of our existing vessels with a similar monitoring system. While these monitoring systems are generally available in the shipping industry, we believe that they can be cost-effectively employed only by large-scale shipping operators,
such as us. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our fleet, which emphasizes large Capesize vessels, primarily transports minerals from the Americas and Australia to East
Asia, particularly China, but also Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Indonesia and Malaysia. Our Supramax vessels carry minerals, grain products and steel between the Americas, Europe, Africa, Australia and Indonesia and from these areas to China, Korea, Japan,
Taiwan, the Philippines and Malaysia. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We believe that our investment in modern fuel efficient Eco-type newbuilding vessels will help us generate a superior time charter equivalent
rate per day (&#147;TCE rate&#148;) compared to standard Baltic description vessels. All of our Eco-type newbuildings have significant technological improvements over the existing dry bulk vessels in their respective size categories, such as
electronically controlled engines and optimized hull and propeller designs that have reduced water resistance and helped decrease fuel consumption. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">While the shipping industry uses TCE rate as a key performance indicator, cargo owners chartering vessels on a voyage basis generally consider
the cost per ton to move their cargo between ports and generally are indifferent to the resulting TCE rate, which depends on fuel costs, port and canal costs and speed. Two ships generating the same gross revenue per ton for the same voyage can
therefore earn very different TCE rates based on different fuel consumption, speed and the number of tons of cargo each can carry. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">When
freight rates are relatively low (leading to low TCE rates), our Eco-type vessels enable us to generate higher TCE rates than non-Eco ships even when both are operated at low &#147;Eco speeds,&#148; which are the lowest speeds typically specified by
the owners of vessels for normal operations. As freight rates rise, higher speeds are more profitable but our Eco-ships maintain an advantage. The advantage of Eco-ships and lower speeds increases as fuel prices rise. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The following table illustrates the TCE rates that we expect would be achievable on a Brazil to China round-trip (a common route for Capesize
and larger vessels) voyage charter at freight rates of $20 per ton and $40 per ton (which we believe is a representative range of historical freight rates) by various types of vessels operating at full speed and Eco speed (assuming bunker prices of
$600 per ton) based on information currently available through publicly available sources (although future results may vary and could be different from those presented here): </P> <P STYLE="font-size:12pt;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Since 2007, we have successfully acquired 38 modern dry bulk carrier vessels built between 1992 and 2014, with a total capacity of
approximately 8.7&nbsp;million dwt, including fifteen Capesize vessels, four Post-Panamax vessels, six Kamsarmax vessels, one Panamax, two Ultramax and ten Supramax vessels. During the same period we have successfully disposed of five older dry bulk
carrier vessels, including four Capesize vessels and one Panamax vessel. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our existing fleet of 33 modern dry bulk carrier vessels, (which
includes two vessels to be received from Heron), was built at leading Japanese, Chinese and Korean shipyards between 1994 and 2014, all of which are serving existing customers. Our management team&#146;s newbuilding philosophy has been to focus on
building vessels exclusively at what we believe to be among the leading shipyards in Japan and China rather than simply purchasing available slots at any shipyard. Based on our experience, we believe that charterers will prefer newer, high-quality
vessels and that such vessels will help to reduce operating and maintenance expenses and increase utilization rates. Mr.&nbsp;Pappas has leveraged his relationships with the shipyards to carefully plan our 36-vessel newbuilding program, including
Capesize ships built at JMU, which we believe are very desirable because of their fuel efficiency and reliability. Our newbuilding program is designed to take advantage of economies of scale as quickly as practicable, adding a total capacity of
approximately 5.4&nbsp;million dwt, with 30 of the 36 vessels to be delivered in 2014 to 2015. As of August&nbsp;1, 2014, the average age of our existing fleet was 7.3 years. When our newbuilding program is completed (which we expect at the end of
the second quarter of 2016), our fleet is expected to consist of 69 wholly owned vessels, with an average age of 5.1 years and an aggregate capacity of 8.7&nbsp;million dwt. We believe that our existing fleet and our expected newbuilding delivery
schedule gives us a competitive advantage. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Focus on fuel efficiency and optimized vessel operations </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">All of our 36 newbuilding vessels are Eco-type vessels, and our Capesize ships being built at JMU in Japan have some of the lowest projected
fuel consumption rates in the Capesize market. These fuel-efficient Eco-type vessels will enable us to take advantage of available fuel cost savings and operational efficiencies and give us the opportunity to generate advantageous TCE rates,
particularly in an environment in which fuel costs are high and charterhire rates are relatively low. In addition, each of our newbuilding vessels will be equipped with a sophisticated vessel remote monitoring system that will allow us to collect
real-time information on the performance of critical on-board equipment, with a particular focus on fuel consumption and engine performance. Using this information, we will be able to be proactive in identifying potential problems and evaluating
optimum operating parameters during various sea passage conditions. We will also be able to compare actual vessel performance to reported vessel performance and provide feedback to crews in real time, thereby reducing the likelihood of errors or
omissions by our crews. Similar systems will be retrofitted to all of our existing vessels. The vessel remote monitoring system is designed to enhance our ability to manage the operations of our vessels, thereby increasing operational efficiency and
reducing maintenance costs and off-hire </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="center"><B>Our Business Strategies </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our primary objectives are to grow our business profitably and to continue to grow as a successful owner and operator of dry bulk vessels. The
key elements of our strategy are: </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Capitalize on expected increases in demand for dry bulk shipping </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We have observed a recent generally upward trend in dry bulk charterhire rates, with 12-month period charter rates for Capesize vessels having
increased from an average of $13,000 per day in July 2013 to an average of $20,000 per day in August 2014. Although there can be no assurance that such trends will continue, based on our analysis of industry dynamics, we believe that dry bulk
charterhire rates will continue to rise for the medium term, coinciding with our expected fleet expansion. While the charter market remains at current levels, we intend to operate our vessels in the spot and short-term time charter market in order
to benefit any from&nbsp;increases in charter rates. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Charter our vessels in an active and sophisticated manner </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Based on improving market conditions in the dry bulk shipping industry, our business strategy is centered on arranging voyage and spot time
charters for our vessels, an approach that is tailored specifically to the fuel efficiency of our fleet, particularly our newbuilding vessels. While this process is more difficult and labor-intensive than placing our vessels on longer-term time
charters, it can lead to greater profitability, particularly for vessels that have lower fuel consumption than typical vessels. When operating a vessel on a voyage charter, we (as owner of the vessel) will incur fuel costs, and therefore we are in a
position to benefit from fuel savings (particularly for our Eco-type vessels). If charter market levels rise, we may employ our existing fleet in the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">long-term</FONT> time charter market, while we may be able to more
advantageously employ our newbuilding fleet in the voyage charter market in order to capture the benefit of available fuel cost savings. For a long-term time charter, a rate based in part on the projected fuel consumption of our ship must be
negotiated, and we may not be given full credit by the chartering party for the fuel efficiency of our vessels. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Expand our fleet through opportunistic
acquisitions of high-quality vessels at attractive prices </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We have contracts for 36 additional newbuilding vessels with an aggregate
capacity of approximately 5.2&nbsp;million dwt. We intend to continue to opportunistically acquire high-quality vessels at attractive prices, and we are currently in advanced discussions relating to the acquisition of significant fleets in terms of
deadweight tonnage and number of vessels, with our goal being to complete one or more acquisitions during the latter half of 2014, to the extent agreements are reached. When evaluating acquisitions, we will consider and analyze, among other things,
our expectation of fundamental developments in the dry bulk shipping industry sector, the level of liquidity in the resale and charter market, the cash flow earned by the vessel in relation to its value, its condition and technical specifications
with particular regard to fuel consumption, expected remaining useful life, the credit quality of the charterer and duration and terms of charter contracts for vessels acquired with charters attached, as well as the overall diversification of our
fleet and customers. We believe that these circumstances combined with our management&#146;s knowledge of the shipping industry may present an opportunity for us to grow our fleet at favorable prices. </P>

leverage over time (as described below), even though we may have the capacity to obtain additional financing. As of June&nbsp;30, 2014, on a pro forma basis, our debt to total capitalization ratio was approximately 30-35%. By maintaining moderate
levels of leverage, we maintain greater flexibility than our more leveraged competitors to operate our vessels under shorter spot or period charters. Charterers have increasingly favored financially solid vessel owners, and we believe that our
balance sheet strength will enable us to access more favorable chartering opportunities, as well as give us a competitive advantage in pursuing vessel acquisitions from commercial banks and shipyards, which in our experience have recently displayed
a preference for contracting with well-capitalized counterparties. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="center"><B>Oaktree </B></P>

to Our Industry </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Charterhire rates for dry bulk vessels are volatile and have declined significantly since their historic highs and may remain at
low levels or decrease in the future, which may adversely affect our earnings, revenue and profitability and our ability to comply with our loan covenants. </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The dry bulk shipping industry is cyclical with high volatility in charterhire rates and profitability. The degree of charterhire rate
volatility among different types of dry bulk vessels has varied widely; however, the continued downturn in the dry bulk charter market has severely affected the entire dry bulk shipping industry and charterhire rates for dry bulk vessels have
declined significantly from historically high levels. In the past, time charter and spot market charter rates for dry bulk carriers have declined below operating costs of vessels. The BDI, a daily average of charter rates for key dry bulk routes
published by the Baltic Exchange Limited, which has long been viewed as the main benchmark to monitor the movements of the dry bulk vessel charter market and the performance of the entire dry bulk shipping market, declined 94% in 2008 from a peak of
11,793 in May 2008 to a low of 663 in December 2008 and has remained volatile since then. The BDI recorded a record low of 647 in February 2012. While the BDI has since increased from these low levels and has fluctuated in a range between 698 and
2,337 from December 2012 through and including July, 2014, the market remains volatile and there can be no assurance that the dry bulk charter market will continue to increase and the market could decline. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Fluctuations in charter rates result from changes in the supply of and demand for vessel capacity and changes in the supply of and demand for
the major commodities carried by water internationally. Because the factors affecting the supply of and demand for vessels are outside of our control and are unpredictable, the nature, timing, direction and degree of changes in industry conditions
are also unpredictable. Since we charter our vessels principally in the spot market, we are exposed to the cyclicality and volatility of the spot market. Spot market charterhire rates may fluctuate significantly based upon available charters and the
supply of and demand for seaborne shipping capacity, and we may be unable to keep our vessels fully employed in these short-term markets. Alternatively, charter rates available in the spot market may be insufficient to enable our vessels to operate
profitably. A significant decrease in charter rates would also affect asset values and adversely affect our profitability, cash flows and our ability to pay dividends, if any. </P>

newbuilding prices, secondhand vessel values in relation to scrap prices, costs of bunkers and other operating costs, costs associated with classification society surveys, normal maintenance and insurance coverage, the efficiency and age profile of

China and India, seasonal and regional changes in demand, changes in the capacity of the global dry bulk fleet and the sources and supply of dry bulk cargo to be transported by sea. Given the number of new dry bulk carriers currently on order with

to obtain financing or refinance our future credit facilities on acceptable terms, which may hinder or prevent us from operating or expanding our business. </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Global financial markets and economic conditions have been, and continue to be, volatile. These issues, along with significant write-offs in
the financial services sector, the re-pricing of credit risk and the current weak economic conditions, have made, and will likely continue to make, it difficult to obtain additional financing. The current state of global financial markets and
current economic conditions might adversely impact our ability to issue additional equity at prices that will not be dilutive to our existing shareholders or preclude us from issuing equity at all. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Also, as a result of concerns about the stability of financial markets generally and the solvency of counterparties specifically, the cost of
obtaining money from the credit markets has increased as many lenders have increased interest rates, enacted tighter lending standards, refused to refinance existing debt at all or on terms similar to current debt and reduced, and in some cases
ceased, to provide funding to borrowers. Due to these factors, we cannot be certain that financing will be available to the extent required, or that we will be able to refinance our future credit facilities, on acceptable terms or at all. If
financing or refinancing is not available when needed, or is available only on unfavorable terms, we may be unable to meet our obligations as they come due or we may be unable to enhance our existing business, complete the acquisition of our
newbuildings and additional vessel acquisitions or otherwise take advantage of business opportunities as they arise. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Many of our vessels will soon be
exposed to the volatilities of the dry bulk charter markets. </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Dry bulk charter markets experienced significant continued weakness in
2013. We currently have 25 vessels that we consider to be employed in the spot market due to the short duration of their current charter agreements five of our vessels on medium to long term time charters scheduled to expire from November 2015 until
August 2016 and one vessel undergoing dry docking. The time charter market is highly competitive and spot and short-term trip charter market charterhire rates (which affect time charter rates) may fluctuate significantly based upon the supply of,
and demand for, seaborne dry bulk shipping capacity. Our ability to re-charter our vessels on the expiration or termination of their current time charters and the charter rates payable under any renewal or replacement charters will depend upon,
among other things, economic conditions in the dry bulk shipping market. The dry bulk carrier charter market is volatile, and in the past, time charter and spot market charter rates for dry bulk carriers have declined below operating costs of
vessels. If we are required to charter these vessels at a time when demand and charter rates are very low, we may not be able to secure time charter or spot market employment for our vessels at all or at reduced and potentially unprofitable rates.
As a result, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, as well as our ability to pay dividends, if any, in the future, and compliance with covenants in our credit facilities, may be affected. </P>

European Commission created the European Financial Stability Facility (the &#147;EFSF&#148;), and the European Financial Stability Mechanism (the &#147;EFSM&#148;), to provide funding to Eurozone countries in financial difficulties that seek such
support. In March 2011, the European Council agreed on the need for Eurozone countries to establish a permanent stability mechanism, the European Stability Mechanism, which was established on September&nbsp;27, 2012 to assume the role of the EFSF
and the EFSM in providing external financial assistance to Eurozone countries. Despite these measures, concerns persist regarding the debt burden of certain Eurozone countries and their ability to meet future financial obligations and the overall
stability of the euro. An extended period of adverse developments in the outlook for European countries could reduce the overall demand for dry bulk cargoes and for our services. These potential developments, or market perceptions concerning these
and related issues, could affect our financial position, results of operations and cash flow. </P>

markets and the credit markets are subject to comprehensive statutes, regulations and other requirements. The SEC, other regulators, self-regulatory organizations and exchanges are authorized to take extraordinary actions in the event of market
emergencies, and may effect changes in law or interpretations of existing laws. Global financial markets and economic conditions have been, and continue to be volatile. Credit markets and the debt and equity capital markets have been distressed and
the uncertainty surrounding the future of the global credit markets has resulted in reduced access to credit worldwide. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We face risks
attendant to changes in economic environments, changes in interest rates, and instability in the banking and securities markets around the world, among other factors. Major market disruptions and the current adverse changes in market conditions and

number of the port calls made by our vessels will continue to involve the loading or discharging of dry bulk commodities in ports in the Asia Pacific region. Before the global economic financial crisis that began in 2008, China had one of the
world&#146;s fastest growing economies in terms of GDP, which had a significant impact on shipping demand. The growth rate of China&#146;s GDP is estimated to have decreased for the fourth year in a row to approximately 7.6% for the year ended
December&nbsp;31, 2013, and continues to remain below pre-2008 levels. China has recently imposed measures to restrain lending, which may further contribute to a slowdown in its economic growth. It is possible that China and other countries in the
Asia Pacific region will continue to experience slowed or even negative economic growth in the near future. Moreover, the current economic slowdown in the economies of the United States, the European Union and other Asian countries may further
adversely affect economic growth in China and elsewhere. Our business, financial condition and results of operations, ability to pay dividends, if any, as well as our future prospects, will likely be materially and adversely affected by a further

the Chinese government in connection with the development of the economy. Although state-owned enterprises still account for a substantial portion of the Chinese industrial output, in general,
the Chinese government is reducing the level of direct control that it exercises over the economy through State Plans and other measures. There is an increasing level of freedom and autonomy in areas such as allocation of resources, production,
pricing and management and a gradual shift in emphasis to a &#147;market economy&#148; and enterprise reform. Limited price reforms were undertaken with the result that prices for certain commodities are principally determined by market forces. In
addition, economic reforms may include reforms to the banking and credit sector and may produce a shift away from the export-driven growth model that has characterized the Chinese economy over the past few decades. Many of the reforms are
unprecedented or experimental and may be subject to revision, change or abolition based upon the outcome of such experiments. The level of imports to and exports from China could be adversely affected by the failure to continue market reforms or
changes to existing pro-export economic policies. The level of imports to and exports from China may also be adversely affected by changes in political, economic and social conditions or other relevant policies of the Chinese government, such as
changes in laws, regulations or export and import restrictions, internal political instability, changes in currency policies, changes in trade policies and territorial or trade disputes. A decrease in the level of imports to and exports from China

the U.S. Clean Air Act, the U.S. Clean Water Act, the U.S. Ocean Dumping Act, 1972, the U.S. Maritime Transportation Security Act of 2002 (the &#147;MTSA&#148;) and international conventions issued under the auspices of the United Nations

invasive harmful species via such discharges. The United States, for example, requires vessels entering its waters from another country to conduct mid-ocean ballast exchange, or undertake some alternative measure, and to comply with certain
reporting requirements. The International Convention for the Control and Management of Ships&#146; Ballast Water and Sediments (the &#147;BWM Convention&#148;), adopted by the UN International Maritime Organization in February 2004, calls for the
phased introduction of mandatory reducing living organism limits in ballast water over time. Although the BWM Convention has not yet entered into force and has not been ratified by the United States, the United States Coast Guard has adopted
regulations imposing requirements similar to those of the BWM Convention. In order to comply with these living organism limits, vessel owners may have to install expensive ballast water treatment systems or make port facility disposal arrangements
and modify existing vessels to accommodate those systems. To date, many of these systems are unproven and not yet certified for use by any government. We cannot predict whether the BWM Convention will be sufficiently ratified to enter into force or
whether other countries will adopt it or similar requirements unilaterally. Adoption of the BWM Convention standards could have an adverse material impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations depending on the available
ballast water treatment systems and the extent to which existing vessels must be modified to accommodate such systems. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>An over-supply of dry bulk
carrier capacity in recent years may prolong or further depress the current low charter rates, which may limit our ability to operate our dry bulk carriers profitably. </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The supply of dry bulk vessels has increased significantly since the beginning of 2006. As of the end of February 2014, the majority of
newbuilding orders, which were placed over recent years, were completed, and the current order book stands at approximately 19.4% of the existing global fleet capacity. Vessel supply has increased more than vessel demand in recent years, causing
downward pressure on charter rates during that time. If supply is not fully absorbed by the market, charter rates may continue to be under pressure due to vessel supply. Since our fleet will continue to be employed in voyage charters and short-term
time charters, we remain exposed to the spot market. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Past terrorist attacks, as well as the threat of future terrorist attacks around the world, continue to cause uncertainty in the world&#146;s
financial markets and may affect our business, operating results and financial condition. Continuing conflicts and recent developments in the Ukraine, the Korean Peninsula, the East China Sea, the Middle East, including Iraq, Egypt and North Africa,
and the presence of U.S. or other armed forces in the Middle East, may lead to additional acts of terrorism and armed conflict around the world, which may contribute to further economic instability in the global financial markets. These
uncertainties could also adversely affect our ability to obtain additional financing on terms acceptable to us or at all. In the past, political conflicts have also resulted in attacks on vessels, mining of waterways and other efforts to disrupt
international shipping, particularly in the Arabian Gulf region. Acts of terrorism and piracy have also affected vessels trading in regions such as the South China Sea and the Gulf of Aden off the coast of Somalia. In November 2013, the government
of the People&#146;s Republic of China announced an Air Defense Identification Zone (&#147;ADIZ&#148;), covering much of the East China Sea. When introduced, the Chinese ADIZ was controversial because a number of nations are not honoring the ADIZ,
and the ADIZ includes certain maritime areas that have been contested among various nations in the region. Tensions relating to the Chinese ADIZ may escalate as a result of incidents relating to the ADIZ or other territorial disputes, which may
result in additional limitations on navigation or trade. Any of these occurrences could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Acts of piracy on ocean-going vessels have had and may continue to have an adverse effect on our business. </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Acts of piracy have historically affected ocean-going vessels trading in regions of the world such as the South China Sea, the Indian Ocean and
in the Gulf of Aden off the coast of Somalia. Although the frequency of sea piracy worldwide decreased during 2012 and 2013 to its lowest level since 2009, sea piracy incidents continue to occur, particularly in the Gulf of Aden off the coast of
Somalia and increasingly in the Gulf of Guinea and the West Coast of Africa, with dry bulk vessels particularly vulnerable to such attacks. If these piracy attacks result in regions in which our vessels are deployed being characterized as &#147;war
risk&#148; zones by insurers, as the Gulf of Aden temporarily was in May 2008, or Joint War Committee &#147;war and strikes&#148; listed areas, premiums payable for such coverage could increase significantly and such insurance coverage may be more
difficult to obtain. In addition, crew costs, including those due to employing onboard security guards, could increase in such circumstances. Furthermore, while we believe the charterer remains liable for charter payments when a vessel is seized by
pirates, the charterer may dispute this and withhold charterhire until the vessel is released. A charterer may also claim that a vessel seized by pirates was not &#147;on-hire&#148; for a certain number of days and is therefore entitled to cancel
the charter party, a claim that we would dispute. We may not be adequately insured to cover losses from these incidents, which could have a material adverse effect on us. In addition, any detention hijacking as a result of an act of piracy against
our vessels, or an increase in cost, or unavailability, of insurance for our vessels, could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. </P>

under the applicable laws of the European Union, the United States or another applicable jurisdiction against countries such as Iran, Sudan, Syria, North Korea and Cuba. U.S. economic sanctions, for example, prohibit a wide scope of conduct, target

and could severely impact our ability to access U.S. capital markets and conduct our business, and could result in some investors deciding, or being required, to divest their interest, or not to invest, in us. Even inadvertent violations of economic

embargoes imposed by the United States government and countries identified by the U.S. government as state sponsors of terrorism, such as Cuba, Iran, Sudan and Syria. Since our inception, to the best of our knowledge only one of our vessels made one
port call in Iran in 2011. The U.S. sanctions and embargo laws and regulations vary in their application, as they do not all apply to the same covered persons or proscribe the same activities, and such sanctions and embargo laws and regulations may
be amended or strengthened over time. With effect from July&nbsp;1, 2010, the U.S. enacted the Comprehensive Iran Sanctions Accountability and Divestment Act, or CISADA, which expanded the scope of the Iran Sanctions Act. Among other things, CISADA
expands the application of the prohibitions to companies, such as ours, and introduces limits on the ability of companies and persons to do business or trade with Iran when such activities relate to the investment, supply or export of refined
petroleum or petroleum products. In addition, on May&nbsp;1, 2012, President Obama signed Executive Order 13608 which prohibits foreign persons from violating or attempting to violate, or causing a violation of any sanctions in effect against Iran
or facilitating any deceptive transactions for or on behalf of any person subject to U.S. sanctions. Any persons found to be in violation of Executive Order 13608 will be deemed a foreign sanctions evader and will be banned from all contacts with
the United States, including conducting business in U.S. dollars. Also in 2012, President Obama signed into law the Iran Threat Reduction and Syria Human Rights Act of 2012, or the Iran Threat Reduction Act, which created new sanctions and
strengthened existing sanctions. Among other things, the Iran Threat Reduction Act intensifies existing sanctions regarding the provision of goods, services, infrastructure or technology to Iran&#146;s petroleum or petrochemical sector. The Iran
Threat Reduction Act also includes a provision requiring the President of the United States to impose five or more sanctions from Section&nbsp;6(a) of the Iran Sanctions Act, as amended, on a person the President determines is a controlling
beneficial owner of, or otherwise owns, operates, or controls or insures a vessel that was used to transport crude oil from Iran to another country and (1)&nbsp;if the person is a controlling beneficial owner of the vessel, the person had actual
knowledge the vessel was so used or (2)&nbsp;if the person otherwise owns, operates, or controls, or insures the vessel, the person knew or should have known the vessel was so used. Such a person could be subject to a variety of sanctions, including
exclusion from U.S. capital markets, exclusion from financial transactions subject to U.S. jurisdiction, and exclusion of that person&#146;s vessels from U.S. ports for up to two years. </P>

from January&nbsp;20, 2014 until July&nbsp;20, 2014. On July&nbsp;18, 2014, the P5+1 and Iran agreed to extend the measures taken under JPOA until November&nbsp;24, 2014. </P>

commitments under the JPOA. Any such violation could result in fines, penalties or other sanctions that could severely impact our ability to access U.S. capital markets and conduct our business, and could result in some investors deciding, or being
required, to divest their interest, or not to invest, in us. In addition, certain institutional investors may have investment policies or restrictions that prevent them from holding securities of companies that have contracts with countries
identified by the U.S. government as state sponsors of terrorism. The determination by these investors not to invest in, or to divest from, our common stock may adversely affect the price at which our common stock trades. Moreover, our charterers
may violate applicable sanctions and embargo laws and regulations as a result of actions that do not involve us or our vessels, and those violations could in turn negatively affect our reputation. In addition, our reputation and the market for our
securities may be adversely affected if we engage in certain other activities, such as entering into charters with individuals or entities in countries subject to U.S. sanctions and embargo laws that are not controlled by the governments of those
countries, or engaging in operations associated with those countries pursuant to contracts with third parties that are unrelated to those countries or entities controlled by their governments. Investor perception of the value of our common stock may

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We operate our vessels in markets that have historically exhibited seasonal variations in demand and, as a result, in charterhire rates. This
seasonality may result in volatility in our operating results to the extent that we enter into new charter agreements or renew existing agreements during a time when charter rates are weaker or we operate our vessels on the spot market or index
based time charters, which may result in quarter-to-quarter volatility in our operating results. The dry bulk sector is typically stronger in the fall and winter months in anticipation of increased consumption of coal and other raw materials in the
northern hemisphere. In addition, unpredictable weather patterns in these months tend to disrupt vessel scheduling and supplies of certain commodities. Since we charter our vessels principally in the spot market, our revenues from our dry bulk
carriers may be weaker during the fiscal quarters ended June&nbsp;30 and September&nbsp;30, and stronger during the fiscal quarters ended December&nbsp;31 and March&nbsp;31. </P>

By their nature, dry bulk cargoes are often heavy, dense and easily shifted and react badly to water exposure. In addition, dry bulk carriers are often subjected to battering treatment during unloading operations with grabs, jackhammers (to pry
encrusted cargoes out of the hold) and small bulldozers. This treatment may cause damage to the vessel. Vessels damaged due to treatment during unloading procedures may be more susceptible to breach at sea. Hull breaches in dry bulk carriers may
lead to the flooding of the vessels&#146; holds. If a dry bulk carrier suffers flooding in its forward holds, the bulk cargo may become so dense and waterlogged that its pressure may buckle the vessel&#146;s bulkheads, leading to the loss of a
vessel. If we are unable to adequately maintain our vessels, we may be unable to prevent these events. Any of these circumstances or events may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flows, financial condition
and ability to pay dividends. In addition, the loss of any of our vessels could harm our reputation as a safe and reliable vessel owner and operator. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Since we expect to primarily employ our vessels in the spot market, we expect that vessel fuel, known as bunkers, will be the largest single
expense item in our shipping operations for our vessels. While we believe that we will experience a competitive advantage as a result of increased bunker prices due to the greater fuel efficiency of our vessels compared to the average global fleet,
changes in the price of fuel may adversely affect our profitability. The imposition of stringent vessel air emissions requirements, such as the requirement to reduce the amount of sulfur in fuel to 0.10% in certain coastal areas on January&nbsp;1,
2015 and potentially in all areas of the world in 2020 or 2025, could lead to marine fuel shortages and substantial increases in marine fuel prices which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of
operations. The price and supply of fuel are unpredictable and fluctuate based on events outside our control, including geopolitical developments, supply and demand for oil and gas, actions by the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries
and other oil and gas producers, war and unrest in oil producing countries and regions, regional production patterns and environmental concerns. Further, fuel may become much more expensive in the future, which may reduce our profitability and
competitiveness of our business versus other forms of transportation, such as truck or rail. </P>

insurance includes marine hull and machinery insurance, protection insurance and indemnity insurance, which include pollution risks and crew insurances, and war risk insurance. Currently, the amount of coverage for liability for pollution, spillage

interruptions that result from the loss of use of a vessel. Therefore, if the availability of a vessel for hire is interrupted, the loss of earnings due to such interruption, as well as the cost of any repairs or repositions not covered by our
insurance, could negatively affect our business. We may not be adequately insured against all risks. We may not be able to obtain adequate insurance coverage for our fleet in the future, and we may not be able to obtain certain insurance coverages.
The insurers may not pay particular claims. Our insurance policies may contain deductibles for which we will be responsible and limitations and exclusions which may increase our costs or lower our revenue. Moreover, insurers may default on claims

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Crew members, suppliers of goods and services to a vessel, shippers of cargo and other parties may be entitled to a maritime lien against a
vessel for unsatisfied debts, claims or damages. In many jurisdictions, a claimant may seek to obtain security for its claim by arresting a vessel through foreclosure proceedings. The arrest or attachment of one or more of our vessels could
interrupt our cash flow and require us to pay large sums of money to have the arrest or attachment lifted. In addition, in some jurisdictions, such as South Africa, under the &#147;sister ship&#148; theory of liability, a claimant may arrest both
the vessel which is subject to the claimant&#146;s maritime lien and any &#147;associated&#148; vessel, which is any vessel owned or controlled by the same owner. Claimants could attempt to assert &#147;sister ship&#148; liability against one vessel
in our fleet for claims relating to another of our vessels. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Governments could requisition our vessels during a period of war or emergency, resulting

when a government takes control of a vessel and becomes its owner, while requisition for hire occurs when a government takes control of a vessel and effectively becomes its charterer at dictated charter rates. Generally, requisitions occur during
periods of war or emergency, although governments may elect to requisition vessels in other circumstances. Although we would be entitled to compensation in the event of a requisition of one or more of our vessels, the amount and timing of payment
would be uncertain. Government requisition of one or more of our vessels may negatively impact our revenues. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>We operate our vessels worldwide and as a

industry is an inherently risky business involving global operations. Our vessels and their cargoes are at a risk of being damaged or lost because of events such as mechanical failure, collision, human error, war, terrorism, piracy, marine
disasters, and bad weather and other acts of God. In addition, changing economic, regulatory and political conditions in some countries, including political and military conflicts, have from time to time resulted in attacks on vessels, mining of
waterways, piracy, terrorism, labor strikes and boycotts. These sorts of events could interfere with shipping routes and result in market disruptions which may reduce our revenue or increase our expenses. </P>

we incurred approximately 20% of our operating expenses and the majority of our general and administrative expenses in currencies other than U.S. dollars. This difference could lead to fluctuations in net income due to changes in the value of the
dollar relative to the other currencies, in particular the Euro. Expenses incurred in foreign currencies against which the dollar falls in value can increase, decreasing our revenues. Further declines in the value of the dollar could lead to higher
expenses payable by us. While we historically have not mitigated the risk associated with exchange rate fluctuations through the use of financial derivatives, we may employ such instruments from time to time in the future in order to minimize this
risk. Any future use of financial derivatives would involve certain risks, including the risk that losses on a hedged position could exceed the notional amount invested in the instrument and the risk that the counterparty to the derivative
transaction may be unable or unwilling to satisfy its contractual obligations, which could have an adverse effect on our results. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="center"><B>Risks

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our fleet includes 33 existing vessels, including the two Heron Vessels. We have entered into construction contracts, either directly with the
shipyards or indirectly through the use of bareboat agreements with purchase options, for 36 newbuilding vessels, with scheduled deliveries to us from September 2014 to June 2016. We intend to employ our vessels primarily in the spot market, under
short term time charters or voyage charters. We will own a large number of vessels that will enter these markets in a relatively short period of time without having previously secured employment. We cannot assure you that we will be successful in
finding employment for our newbuilding vessels in the volatile spot market immediately upon their deliveries to us or whether any such employment will be at profitable rates, nor can we assure you continued timely employment of our existing vessels.

Transactions, we had contracts for 36 newbuilding vessels. These vessels are scheduled to be delivered through June 2016. Vessel construction projects are generally subject to risks of delay or cost overruns that are inherent in any large
construction project, which may be caused by numerous factors, including shortages of equipment, materials or skilled labor, unscheduled delays in the delivery of ordered materials and equipment or shipyard construction, failure of equipment to meet
quality and/or performance standards, financial or operating difficulties experienced by equipment vendors or the shipyard, unanticipated actual or purported change orders, inability to obtain required permits or approvals, unanticipated cost
increases between order and delivery, design or engineering changes and work stoppages and other labor disputes, adverse weather conditions or any other events of force majeure. Significant cost overruns or delays could adversely affect our
financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Additionally, failure to complete a project on time may result in the delay of revenue from that vessel, and we will continue to incur costs and expenses related to delayed vessels, such as
supervision expense and interest expense for the outstanding debt. These risks have been increased by the greater number of newbuilding vessels that we will have after the Transactions. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The dry bulk shipping business is highly capital-intensive because of the significant investment in vessels that is required. As of
June&nbsp;30, 2014, we had contracts for 11 newbuilding vessels with total capital requirements of $491.5 million (for which we had obtained financing for $93.6 million). As of August&nbsp;1, 2014, after giving effect to the Transactions, we had
contracts for 36 newbuilding vessels with total capital requirements of $1,566.2 million, of which we had already paid $224.5 million. Also, as of August&nbsp;1, 2014, we had already obtained commitments for $562.7 million of debt financing for 17
vessels and are in the final stages of negotiations for $149.8 million of debt financing for eight additional vessels. These capital requirements, which have been substantially increased as a result of the Transactions, thereby increasing risks
relating to our ability to obtain financing to satisfy such capital requirements. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If we are not able to borrow additional funds, raise other capital or
utilize available cash on hand, we may not be able to acquire our newbuilding vessels, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. We expect to fund our remaining newbuilding
commitments through credit facilities, the proceeds of equity issuances, bareboat charters and other fixed income securities but may not be able to do so. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain such financings on a timely basis or
on terms we deem reasonable or acceptable. To the degree we raise equity financing to fund our capital expenditures, such equity raises may dilute the ownership of our existing stockholders and may be dilutive to the Company&#146;s earnings per
share. If for any reason we fail to make a payment when due, which may result in a default under our newbuilding contracts, or otherwise fail to take delivery of our newbuilding vessels, we would be prevented from realizing potential revenues from
these vessels, we could also lose all or a portion of our yard payments that were paid by us, and we could be liable for penalties and damages under such contracts. </P>

our fleet ages, the risks associated with older vessels could adversely affect our ability to obtain profitable charters. </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our current
business strategy includes additional growth which may, in addition to the acquisition of newbuilding vessels, include the acquisition of modern secondhand vessels. While we expect that we would typically inspect secondhand vessels prior to
acquisition, this does not provide us with the same knowledge about their condition that we would have had if these vessels had been built for and operated exclusively by us. Generally, we, as a purchaser of secondhand vessels will not receive the
benefit of warranties from the builders for the secondhand vessels that we acquire. In addition, unforeseen maintenance, repairs, special surveys or dry docking may be necessary for acquired secondhand vessels, which could also increase our costs
and reduce our ability to employ the vessel to generate revenue. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Governmental regulations, safety or other equipment standards related to
the age of vessels may require expenditures for alterations, or the addition of new equipment, to our vessels and may restrict the type of activities in which the vessels may engage. As our vessels age, market conditions may not justify those
expenditures or enable us to operate our vessels profitably during the remainder of their useful lives. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>The aging of our vessels may result in
increased operating costs in the future, which could adversely affect our earnings. </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In general, the cost of maintaining a vessel in
good operating condition increases with the age of the vessel. While, with the exception of two Capesize vessels, none of the vessels in our wholly owned fleet was built earlier than 2000 (following the expected sale during 2014 of the older vessels
owned by Heron), as our vessels age they will typically become less fuel-efficient and more costly to maintain than more recently constructed vessels due to improvements in engine technology. Cargo insurance rates increase with the age of a vessel,
making older vessels less desirable to charterers. Governmental regulations and safety or other equipment standards related to the age of vessels may also require expenditures for alterations or the addition of new equipment to our vessels and may
restrict the type of activities in which our vessels may engage. As our vessels age, market conditions may not justify those expenditures or may not enable us to operate our vessels profitably during the remainder of their useful lives. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Technological innovation could reduce our charterhire income and the value of our vessels. </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The charterhire rates and the value and operational life of a vessel are determined by a number of factors including the vessel&#146;s
efficiency, operational flexibility and physical life. Efficiency includes speed, fuel economy and the ability to load and discharge cargo quickly. Flexibility includes the ability to enter harbors, utilize related docking facilities and pass
through canals and straits. The length of a vessel&#146;s physical life is related to its original design and construction, its maintenance and the impact of the stress of operations. If new dry bulk carriers are built that are more efficient or
more flexible or have longer physical lives than our vessels, competition from these more technologically advanced vessels could adversely affect the amount of charterhire payments we receive for our vessels once their initial charters expire and
the resale value of our vessels could significantly decrease. In addition, although we view the fuel efficiency of our newbuilding Eco-type vessels as a competitive advantage, this competitive advantage may eventually erode (along with vessel value)
as more Eco-type vessels are put into service by our competitors and older, less fuel-efficient vessels are retired. As a result, our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition could be adversely affected by technological
innovation. </P>

vessels will be employed in a highly competitive market that is capital intensive and highly fragmented. Competition arises primarily from other vessel owners, some of whom have substantially greater resources than we do. Competition for the
transportation of dry bulk cargo by sea is intense and depends on price, location, size, age, condition and the acceptability of the vessel and its operators to the charterers. Due in part to the highly fragmented market, competitors with greater
resources could enter the dry bulk shipping industry and operate larger fleets through consolidations or acquisitions and may be able to offer lower charter rates and higher quality vessels than we are able to offer. If we are unable to successfully
compete with other dry bulk shipping companies, our results of operations would be adversely impacted. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>We may be subject to litigation that, if not

classification would be based on different criteria and would serve a different purpose than it does today. Lease classification would determine how entities recognize lease-related revenue and expense, as well as what lessors record on the balance
sheet. Classification would be based on the portion of the economic benefits of the underlying asset expected to be consumed by the lessee over the lease term. If the proposals are adopted, they would be expected generally to have the effect of
bringing most off-balance sheet leases onto a lessee&#146;s balance sheet as liabilities, which would also change the income and expense recognition patterns of those items. Financial statement metrics such as leverage and capital ratios, as well as
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, may also be affected, even when cash flow and business activity have not changed. This may in turn affect covenant calculations under various contracts (e.g., loan agreements) unless the affected contracts are modified.
The IASB&#146;s and FASB&#146;s deliberations on certain topics are expected to extend through much of 2014 and an effective date has not yet been determined. Accordingly, the timing and ultimate effect of those proposals on us is uncertain. </P>

physically demanding work. Competition to attract and retain qualified crew members is intense due to the increase in the size of the global shipping fleet. If we are not able to obtain higher charter rates to compensate for any crew cost increases,
it could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. If we cannot hire, train and retain a sufficient number of qualified employees, we may be unable to manage, maintain and grow our
business, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. As we expand our fleet, we will also need to expand our operational and financial systems and hire new shoreside staff
and seafarers to crew our vessels; if we cannot expand these systems or recruit suitable employees, its performance may be adversely affected. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Because we are organized under the laws of the Marshall Islands and because substantially all of our assets are located outside of the United States, it
may be difficult to serve us with legal process or enforce judgments against us, our directors or our management. </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We are organized
under the laws of the Marshall Islands, and substantially all of our assets are located outside of the United States. In addition, the majority of our directors and officers are or will be non-residents of the United States, and all or a substantial
portion of the assets of these non-residents are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult or impossible for you to bring an action against us or against these individuals in the United States if you believe that your
rights have been infringed under securities laws or otherwise. Even if you are successful in bringing an action of this kind, the laws of the Marshall Islands and of other jurisdictions may prevent or restrict you from enforcing a judgment against
our assets or the assets of our directors or officers. For more information regarding the relevant laws of the Marshall Islands, see &#147;Enforceability of Civil Liabilities.&#148; </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>We are incorporated in the Marshall Islands, which does not have a well-developed body of corporate law. </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our corporate affairs are governed by our amended and restated articles of incorporation and bylaws and by the Marshall Islands Business
Corporations Act (the &#147;MIBCA&#148;). The provisions of the MIBCA resemble provisions of the corporation laws of a number of states in the United States. However, there have been few judicial cases in the Marshall Islands interpreting the MIBCA.
The rights and fiduciary responsibilities of directors under the laws of the Marshall Islands are not as clearly established as the rights and fiduciary responsibilities of directors under statutes or judicial precedent in existence in the United
States. The rights of shareholders of companies incorporated in the Marshall Islands may differ from the rights of shareholders of companies incorporated in the United States. While the MIBCA provides that it is to be interpreted according to the
laws of the State of Delaware and other states with substantially similar legislative provisions, there have been few, if any, court cases interpreting the MIBCA in the Marshall Islands and we cannot predict whether Marshall Islands courts would
reach the same conclusions as United States courts. Thus, you may have more difficulty in protecting your interests in the face of actions by the management, directors or controlling shareholders than would shareholders of a corporation incorporated
in a United States jurisdiction which has developed a relatively more substantial body of case law. Additionally, the Republic of the Marshall Islands does not have a legal provision for bankruptcy or a general statutory mechanism for insolvency
proceedings. As such, in the event of a future insolvency or bankruptcy, our shareholders and creditors may experience delays in their ability to recover their claims after any such insolvency or bankruptcy. </P>

of approximately $11.85. The market price of common share of $11.85 used was the average closing market price of our common shares, as determined over a period of two days before and two days after the closing date of the Transactions, on

2,000 holders. In the event of any further amendment of our amended and restated articles of incorporation, a shareholder also has the right to dissent and receive payment for the shareholder&#146;s shares if the amendment alters certain rights in
respect of those shares. The dissenting shareholder must follow the procedures set forth in the MIBCA to receive payment. In the event that we and any dissenting shareholder fail to agree on a price for the shares, the MIBCA procedures involve,
among other things, the institution of proceedings in any appropriate court in any jurisdiction in which our shares are primarily traded on a local or national securities exchange. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Under the MIBCA, any of our shareholders may bring an action in our name to procure a judgment in our favor, also known as a derivative action,
provided that the shareholder bringing the action is a holder of our common shares both at the time the derivative action is commenced and at the time of the transaction to which the action relates. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Limitations on Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The MIBCA authorizes corporations to limit or eliminate the personal liability of directors and officers to corporations and their shareholders
for monetary damages for breaches of directors&#146; fiduciary duties. Our Articles and Bylaws include a provision that eliminates the personal liability of directors for monetary damages for actions taken as a director to the fullest extent
permitted by law. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our Bylaws provide that we must indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent authorized by law. We are
also expressly authorized to advance certain expenses (including attorneys&#146; fees and disbursements and court costs) to our directors and officers and carry directors&#146; and officers&#146; insurance policies providing indemnification for our
directors, officers and certain employees for some liabilities. We believe that these indemnification provisions and insurance are useful to attract and retain qualified directors and executive officers. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The limitation of liability and indemnification provisions in our Articles and Bylaws may discourage shareholders from bringing a lawsuit
against directors for breach of their fiduciary duty. These provisions may also have the effect of reducing the likelihood of derivative litigation against directors and officers, even though such an action, if successful, might otherwise benefit us
and our shareholders. In addition, your investment may be adversely affected to the extent we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors and officers pursuant to these indemnification provisions. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons,
we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">There is currently no pending material litigation or proceeding involving any of our directors, officers or employees for which
indemnification is sought. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Anti-Takeover Effect of Certain Provisions of our Articles and Bylaws </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Several provisions of our Articles and Bylaws, which are summarized below, may have anti-takeover effects. These provisions are intended to
avoid costly takeover battles, lessen our vulnerability to a hostile change of control and enhance the ability of our Board of Directors to maximize shareholder value in connection with any unsolicited offer to acquire us. However, these
anti-takeover provisions, which are summarized below, could also discourage, delay or prevent (i)&nbsp;the merger or acquisition of our Company by means of a tender offer, a proxy contest or otherwise that a shareholder may consider in its best
interest and (ii)&nbsp;the removal of incumbent officers and directors. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We may issue debt securities from time to time in one or more series, under one or more indentures, each dated as of a date on or prior to the
issuance of the debt securities to which it relates. We may issue senior debt securities and subordinated debt securities pursuant to separate indentures, a senior indenture and a subordinated indenture, respectively, in each case between us and the
trustee named in the indenture. These indentures will be filed either as exhibits to an amendment to this Registration Statement, or as an exhibit to a Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or Exchange Act, report that will be incorporated by reference
to the Registration Statement or a prospectus supplement. We will refer to any or all of these reports as &#147;subsequent filings.&#148; The senior indenture and the subordinated indenture, as amended or supplemented from time to time, are
sometimes referred to individually as an &#147;indenture&#148; and collectively as the &#147;indentures.&#148; Each indenture will be subject to and governed by the Trust Indenture Act. The aggregate principal amount of debt securities which may be
issued under each indenture will be unlimited and each indenture will contain the specific terms of any series of debt securities or provide that those terms must be set forth in or determined pursuant to, an authorizing resolution, as defined in
the applicable prospectus supplement, and/or a supplemental indenture, if any, relating to such series. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The following description of the
terms of the debt securities sets forth certain general terms and provisions. The statements below are not complete and are subject to, and are qualified in their entirety by reference to, all of the provisions of the applicable indenture. The
specific terms of any debt securities that we may offer, including any modifications of, or additions to, the general terms described below as well as any applicable material U.S. federal income tax considerations concerning the ownership of such
debt securities will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement or supplemental indenture. Accordingly, for a complete description of the terms of a particular issue of debt securities, the general description of the debt securities set
forth below should be read in conjunction with the applicable prospectus supplement and indenture, as amended or supplemented from time to time. </P>

amount of debt securities which may be issued, and each indenture provides that debt securities may be issued up to the aggregate principal amount from time to time. The debt securities may be issued in one or more series. The senior debt securities
will be unsecured and will rank in parity in right of payment with all of our other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. Each series of subordinated debt securities will be unsecured and subordinated in right of payment to all present and
future senior indebtedness of debt securities will be described in an accompanying prospectus supplement. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">You should read the subsequent

transfer of the beneficial interests will be effected only through, records maintained by the depository for the global security or by its nominee. Ownership of beneficial interests in the global security by persons that hold through participating
institutions will be shown on, and the transfer of the beneficial interests within the participating institutions will be effected only through, records maintained by those participating institutions. The laws of some jurisdictions may require that

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">DTC is a member of the U.S. Federal Reserve System, a limited-purpose trust company under New
York State banking law and a registered clearing agency with the Commission. Established in 1973, DTC was created to reduce costs and provide clearing and settlement efficiencies by immobilizing securities and making &#147;book-entry&#148; changes
to ownership of the securities. DTC provides securities movements for the net settlements of the National Securities Clearing Corporation, or NSCC, and settlement for institutional trades (which typically involve money and securities transfers
between custodian banks and broker/dealers), as well as money market instruments. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">DTC is a subsidiary of The Depository Trust&nbsp;&amp;
Clearing Company, or DTCC. DTCC is a holding company established in 1999 to combine DTC and NSCC. DTCC, through its subsidiaries, provides clearing, settlement and information services for equities, corporate and municipal bonds, government and
mortgage backed securities, money market instruments and over the-counter derivatives. In addition, DTCC is a leading processor of mutual funds and insurance transactions, linking funds and carriers with their distribution networks. DTCC&#146;s
customer base extends to thousands of companies within the global financial services industry. DTCC serves brokers, dealers, institutional investors, banks, trust companies, mutual fund companies, insurance carriers, hedge funds and other financial
intermediaries&#151;either directly or through correspondent relationships. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">DTCC is industry-owned by its customers who are members of
the financial community, such as banks, broker/dealers, mutual funds and other financial institutions. DTCC operates on an at-cost basis, returning excess revenue from transaction fees to its member firms. All services provided by DTC are regulated
by the Commission. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The 2014 DTCC Board of Directors is composed of 19 directors serving one-year terms. Thirteen directors are
representatives of clearing agency participants, including international broker/dealers, custodian and clearing banks, and investment institutions; of these, two directors are designated by DTCC&#146;s preferred shareholders, which are NYSE Euronext
and FINRA. Three directors are from non-participants. The remaining three are the chairman and chief executive officer, president, and chief operating officer of DTCC. All of the Board members except those designated by the preferred shareholders
are elected annually. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">To facilitate subsequent transfers, the debt securities may be registered in the name of DTC&#146;s nominee,
Cede&nbsp;&amp; Co. The deposit of the debt securities with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede&nbsp;&amp; Co. will effect no change in beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual beneficial owners of the debt securities.
DTC&#146;s records reflect only the identity of the direct participating institutions to whose accounts debt securities are credited, which may or may not be the beneficial owners. The participating institutions remain responsible for keeping
account of their holdings on behalf of their customers. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Delivery of notices and other communications by DTC to direct participating
institutions, by direct participating institutions to indirect participating institutions, and by direct participating institutions and indirect participating institutions to beneficial owners of debt securities are governed by arrangements among
them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Neither DTC nor Cede&nbsp;&amp; Co. consents or votes with
respect to the debt securities. Under its usual procedures, DTC mails a proxy to the issuer as soon as possible after the record date. The proxy assigns Cede&nbsp;&amp; Co.&#146;s consenting or voting rights to those direct participating institution
to whose accounts the debt securities are credited on the record date. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If applicable, redemption notices shall be sent to Cede&nbsp;&amp;
Co. If less than all of the debt securities of a series represented by global securities are being redeemed, DTC&#146;s practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each direct participating institutions in that issue to be
redeemed. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">To the extent that any debt securities provide for repayment or repurchase at the option of the holders thereof, a beneficial
