September&nbsp;30, 2009, owned or agreed to acquire 16 modern double-hull Suezmax tankers averaging approximately 155,000 deadweight tons, or dwt, each, two of which are newbuildings that we expect to take delivery of in 2010. We were formed in June
1995 for the purpose of acquiring and chartering three double-hull Suezmax tankers that were built in 1997. We have bareboat chartered one of our original three vessels to Gulf Navigation Company LLC, or Gulf Navigation, of Dubai, U.A.E. for a term
of five years at a fixed rate charterhire, subject to two one-year extensions at Gulf Navigation&#146;s option. The last one-year option was not exercised, thus the vessel is scheduled to be redelivered to us in November 2010. We acquired our fourth
vessel in November 2004, our fifth and sixth vessels in March 2005, our seventh vessel in August 2005, our eighth vessel in November 2005, our ninth vessel in April 2006, our tenth and eleventh vessel in November 2006, our twelfth vessel in December
2006. In November 2007, we agreed to acquire two Suezmax newbuildings from First Olsen Ltd. for a price at delivery of $90 million per vessel. The vessels are to be built at the Bohai Shipyard in China. We acquired our fifteenth vessel in February
2009 and the sixteenth vessel in July 2009. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:16px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:2%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Current fleet list as of January 21, 2010: </I></FONT></P> <P

expenses. Under a bareboat charter, the charterer pays substantially all of the vessel voyage and operating costs. Under a spot market-related time charter, the charterer pays substantially all of the vessel voyage costs and the vessel owner pays
the operating costs. Under a spot charter, the vessel owner pays all vessel voyage and operating costs. Vessel voyage costs consist primarily of fuel, port charges and commissions. Operating costs consist primarily of vessel maintenance, crewing,
regulatory compliance and insurance. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Since the amount of voyage expenses that we incur for a charter depends on the type of
the charter, we use net voyage revenues to provide comparability among the different types of charters. Net voyage revenue, a non-GAAP financial measure, provides more meaningful disclosure than voyage revenues, the most directly comparable
financial measure under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or U.S. GAAP. Net voyage revenues divided by the number of days on the charter provides the Time Charter Equivalent, or TCE, rate. TCE is a measure of
the average daily revenue performance of a vessel on a per voyage basis. The Company&#146;s method of calculating TCE is determined by dividing voyage revenues (net of voyage expenses) by voyage days for the relevant time period. Voyage expenses
primarily consist of port, canal and fuel costs that are unique to a particular voyage, which would otherwise be paid by the charterer under a time charter contract, as well as commissions. TCE revenues, a non-GAAP measure, provides additional
meaningful information in conjunction with revenues from our vessels, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, because it assists Company management in making decisions regarding the deployment and use of its vessels and in evaluating their
financial performance. TCE is also a standard shipping industry performance measure used primarily to compare period-to-period changes in a shipping company&#146;s earnings performance. For bareboat charters, operating costs must be added in order
to calculate TCE rates. Net voyage revenues and TCE rates are widely used by investors and analysts in the tanker shipping industry for comparing the financial performance of companies and for preparing industry averages. </FONT></P> <P

STATEMENTS </B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Matters discussed in this report may constitute forward-looking statements. The Private 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. Forward-looking statements include statements concerning plans, objectives,
goals, strategies, future events or performance, and underlying assumptions and other statements, which are other than statements of historical facts. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Company desires to take advantage of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and is including this cautionary statement in connection with this safe harbor
legislation. The words &#147;believe,&#148; &#147;anticipate,&#148; &#147;intend,&#148; &#147;estimate,&#148; &#147;forecast,&#148; &#147;project,&#148; &#147;plan,&#148; &#147;potential,&#148; &#147;may,&#148; &#147;should,&#148;
&#147;expect,&#148; &#147;pending&#148; and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The forward-looking
statements in this report are based upon various assumptions, many of which are based, in turn, upon further assumptions, including without limitation, our management&#146;s examination of historical operating trends, data contained in our records
and other data available from third parties. 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. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information,
future events or otherwise. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Important factors that, in our view, could cause actual results to differ materially from those
discussed in the forward-looking statements include the strength of world economies and currencies, general market conditions, including fluctuations in charter rates and vessel values, changes in demand in the tanker market, as a result of changes
in OPEC&#146;s petroleum production levels and world wide oil consumption and storage, changes in our operating expenses, including bunker prices, drydocking and insurance costs, the market for our vessels, availability of financing and refinancing,
changes in governmental rules and regulations or actions taken by regulatory authorities, potential liability from pending or future litigation, general domestic and international political conditions, potential disruption of shipping routes due to
piracy, accidents or political events, vessels breakdowns and instances of off-hire, failure on the part of a seller to complete a sale to us and other important factors described from time to time in the reports filed by the Company with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, including the prospectus and related prospectus supplement, our Annual Report on Form 20-F, and our Reports on Form 6-K. </FONT></P>
