incorporated by reference herein. Our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected by any of these risks. This prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein also contain
forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including the risks we face described in the

investment in the common shares. Before you decide to participate in the Plan and invest in our common shares, you should consult your own financial and legal advisors about the risks entailed by an investment in the common shares and the
suitability of your investment in the common shares in light of your particular circumstances. In addition, you should carefully consider the risks and the discussion of risks under this heading and the heading &#147;Risk Factors&#148; in our annual
report for the year ended December 31, 2015 on Form 20-F, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the Commission, on April 1, 2016.&nbsp;You should also carefully consider the risks and other information included in the documents we

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">There is no treaty in force between the United States and Bermuda providing for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments in
civil and commercial matters. As a result, whether a United States judgment would be enforceable in Bermuda against us or our directors and officers depends on whether the U.S. court that entered the judgment is recognized by the Bermuda court as
having jurisdiction over us or our directors and officers, as determined by reference to Bermuda conflict of law rules. A judgment debt from a U.S. court that is final and for a sum certain based on U.S. federal securities laws will not be
enforceable in Bermuda unless the judgment debtor had submitted to the jurisdiction of the U.S. court, and the issue of submission and jurisdiction is a matter of Bermuda (not U.S.) law. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In addition, and irrespective of jurisdictional issues, the Bermuda courts will not enforce a U.S. federal securities law that is either penal
or contrary to the public policy of Bermuda. An action brought pursuant to a public or penal law, the purpose of which is the enforcement of a sanction, power or right at the instance of the state in its sovereign capacity, may not be entertained by
a Bermuda court to the extent it is contrary to Bermuda public policy. Certain remedies available under the laws of U.S. jurisdictions, including certain remedies under U.S. federal securities laws, may not be available under Bermuda law or
enforceable in a Bermuda court, to the extent they are contrary to Bermuda public policy. Further, no claim may be brought in Bermuda against us or our directors and officers in the first instance for violations of U.S. federal securities laws
because these laws have no extraterritorial jurisdiction under Bermuda law and do not have force of law in Bermuda. A Bermuda court may, however, impose civil liability on us or our directors and officers if the facts alleged in a complaint
constitute or give rise to a cause of action under Bermuda law. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:24pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="center"><B><A NAME="toc265342_3"></A>CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING

Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides safe harbor protections for forward-looking statements in order to encourage companies to provide prospective information about their business.&nbsp;Forward-looking statements include but are not
limited to statements concerning plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events or performance, and underlying assumptions and other statements, which are other than statements of historical facts. </P>

cautionary statement in connection with this safe harbor legislation.&nbsp;This prospectus and any other written or oral statements made by us or on our behalf may include forward-looking statements, which reflect our current views with respect to
future events and financial performance.&nbsp;When used in this prospectus, the words &#147;anticipate,&#148; &#147;believe,&#148; &#147;expect,&#148; &#147;intend,&#148; &#147;estimate,&#148; &#147;forecast,&#148; &#147;project,&#148;

assumptions, including without limitation, management&#146;s examination of historical operating trends, data contained in our records and other data available from third parties.&nbsp;Important assumptions relating to the forward-looking statements
include, among other things, assumptions regarding demand for our products, the cost and availability of refined marine fuel from suppliers, pricing levels, the timing and cost of capital expenditures, competitive conditions, and general economic
conditions.&nbsp;These assumptions could prove inaccurate.&nbsp;Although we believe that these assumptions were reasonable when made, because these assumptions are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies which are difficult
or impossible to predict and are beyond our control, we cannot assure you that we will achieve or accomplish these expectations, beliefs or projections. </P>

waiver discount, if any, will be established at our sole discretion after a review of current market conditions, the level of participation in the Plan, the attractiveness of obtaining additional funds through the sale of our common shares as

reported by the New York Stock Exchange, subject to a maximum of five trading days.&nbsp;If we elect to activate the pricing period extension feature and the threshold price is satisfied for any additional day that has been added to the initial
pricing period, that day will be included as one of the trading days for the pricing period in lieu of the day on which the threshold price was not met or trades of our common stock were not reported. For example, if the determined pricing period is
10 days, and the threshold price is not satisfied for three out of those 10 days in the initial pricing period, and we had previously announced at the time of the request for waiver acceptance that the pricing period extension feature was activated,
then the pricing period will automatically be extended, and if the threshold price is satisfied on the next three trading days (or a subset thereof), then those three days (or a subset thereof) will become investment days in lieu of the three days
on which the threshold price was not met.&nbsp;As a result, because there were 10 trading days during the initial and extended pricing period on which the threshold price was satisfied, all of the optional cash purchase will be invested. </P>

during market hours (normally 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Eastern time). Any orders received outside of market hours will be submitted to the Plan Administrator&#146;s broker on the next day the market is open. Sales proceeds will equal the market price
of the sale obtained by the Plan Administrator&#146;s broker, net of taxes and fees. The Plan Administrator will use commercially reasonable efforts to honor requests by participants to cancel market orders placed outside of market hours. Depending
on the number of shares being sold and current trading volume in the shares, a market order may only be partially filled or not filled at all on the trading day in which it is placed, in which case the order, or remainder of the order, as
applicable, will be cancelled at the end of such day. To determine if your shares were sold, you should check your account online at www.computershare.com/investor or call the Plan Administrator directly at 1-800-301-3489.&nbsp;If your market order
sale was not filled and you still want the shares to be sold, you will need to re-enter the sale request. The price shall be the market price of the sale obtained by the Plan Administrator&#146;s broker, less a service fee of $25.00 and a processing

below, with respect to participation in the Plan.&nbsp;This discussion does not purport to deal with the tax consequences of participation in the Plan to all categories of investors, some of which may be subject to special rules, including, without
limitation, tax-exempt organizations, qualified retirement plans, individual retirement accounts, financial institutions, insurance companies, real estate investment trusts, regulated investment companies, broken dealers, persons that are subject or
elect a market method of accounting, persons whose functional currency is other than the U.S. dollar, persons who sold the common shares as part of a straddle, hedging transaction, conversion transaction, restrictive sale or other arrangement
involving more than one position and persons that hold the common shares other than as a capital asset.&nbsp;You are encouraged to consult your own tax advisors concerning the overall tax consequences arising in your own particular situation under
United States federal, state, local or foreign law of the ownership of common shares. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The following discussion of United States federal
income tax matters is based on the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, judicial decisions, administrative pronouncements, and existing and proposed regulations issued by the United States Department of the Treasury,
all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect.&nbsp;We have not received nor do we intend to seek a private letter ruling from the Internal Revenue Service regarding the Plan. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A &#147;U.S. Participant&#148; means a participant in the Plan that is a United States citizen or resident, United States corporation or other
United States entity taxable as a corporation, an estate the income of which is subject to United States federal income taxation regardless of its source, or a trust if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary jurisdiction over
the administration of the trust and one or more United States persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust, or that has a valid election in place to be treated as a U.S. person. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If a partnership is a participant in the Plan, the tax treatment of a partner will generally depend upon the status of the partner and upon
the activities of the partnership.&nbsp;If you are a partner in a partnership participating in the Plan, you are encouraged to consult your tax advisor. </P>

federal income tax purposes in an amount equal to the fair market value as of the dividend payment date of the common shares purchased with the reinvested dividends.&nbsp;In the case of common shares acquired in market transactions, a U.S.
Participant will be treated as receiving a distribution for United States federal income tax purposes in an amount equal to sum of (x) the cash dividend paid by us and (y) the pro rata share of any brokerage trading fees or other related charges
paid by us in connection with the Administrator&#146;s purchase of the common shares on behalf of the participant.&nbsp;Those distribution amounts will be the U.S. Participant&#146;s tax basis in the common shares purchased.&nbsp;A U.S.

will constitute taxable dividend income to a U.S. Participant to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits. Such dividends may be eligible for taxation at reduced rates in the hands of a non-corporate U.S. Participant, provided
that we are not a passive foreign investment company for the taxable year during which the dividend is paid or the immediately preceding taxable year (as discussed in detail in &#147;Item 10.E_Taxation _U.S. Taxation_Passive Foreign Investment

made.&nbsp;A U.S. Participant will not be deemed to have received a dividend with respect to shares acquired by purchases in market transactions, except to the extent of brokerage fees and charges paid to the Administrator by us.&nbsp;A U.S.
Participant&#146;s tax basis in the common shares purchased will be equal to the cost paid by the participant in acquiring the stock, plus the amount (if any) treated as a dividend for federal income tax purposes.&nbsp;The U.S. Participant&#146;s

legislation is enacted in Bermuda imposing any tax computed on profits or income, or computed on any capital asset, gain or appreciation or any tax in the nature of estate duty or inheritance tax, such tax shall not, until March 31, 2035, be
applicable to us or to any of our operations or to our common shares, debentures or other obligations except insofar as such tax applies to persons ordinarily resident in Bermuda or is payable by us in respect of real property owned or leased by us
in Bermuda. </P>
