<TD ALIGN="left" VALIGN="top"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Adjusted average charter rate is a measure of the average daily revenue performance of a vessel on a per voyage basis. We determine the adjusted average charter rate 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 and are payable by us under a spot charter (which
would otherwise be paid by the charterer under a time or bareboat charter contract), as well as commissions. Charter equivalent revenues and adjusted average charter rate are non-GAAP measures which provide additional meaningful information in
conjunction with voyage revenues, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, because they assist Company management in making decisions regarding the deployment and use of its vessels and in evaluating their financial performance. They are also
standard shipping industry performance measures used primarily to compare period-to-period changes in a shipping company&#146;s performance despite changes in the mix of charter types (i.e., spot charters or time charters, but not bareboat charters)
under which the vessels may be employed between the periods. Under bareboat charters, we are not responsible for either voyage expenses, unlike spot charters, or vessel operating expenses, unlike spot charters and time charters; however, no
adjustment for such reduced vessel operating expenses for our vessels deployed under bareboat charters is reflected in the adjusted average charter rate. Reconciliation of charter equivalent revenues as reflected in the consolidated statements of
operations and calculation of adjusted average charter rate follow: </FONT></TD></TR></TABLE> <P STYLE="font-size:12px;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px">&nbsp;</P>

STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Historically, the international LPG carrier market has been cyclical with attendant volatility in profitability, charter rates and vessel values. The degree of charter rate volatility among different
types of gas carriers has varied widely. Because many factors influencing the supply of, and demand for, vessel capacity are unpredictable, the timing, direction and degree of changes in the international gas carrier market are also not predictable.
After improving from low levels in late 2011 until the third quarter of 2014, charter rates for small LPG carriers have since declined significantly, largely due to the fall in oil prices. If charter rates decline further, our earnings may decrease,
particularly with respect to our vessels deployed in the spot market or those vessels whose charters will be subject to renewal during 2017, as they may not be extended or renewed on favorable terms when compared to the terms of the expiring
charters. As of April&nbsp;1, 2017, of our 51 LPG carriers in the water, including two vessels that are chartered in, 8 were deployed in the spot market while another 21 were scheduled to complete their existing charters during 2017. In addition, we
expect to take delivery of three newbuilding LPG carriers in 2017 and one newbuilding LPG carrier in 2018 for which we have not yet arranged employment. Any of the foregoing factors could have an adverse effect on our revenues, profitability,
liquidity, cash flow and financial position. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Future growth in the demand for LPG carriers and charter rates, including for
the vessel size segments comprising our fleet, will depend on economic growth in the world economy and demand for LPG product transportation that exceeds the capacity of the growing worldwide LPG carrier fleet&#146;s ability to match it. We believe
that the future growth in demand for LPG carriers and the charter rate levels for LPG carriers will depend primarily upon the supply and demand for LPG, particularly in the economies of China, Japan, India and Southeast Asia, as well as U.S. shale
production, and upon seasonal and regional changes in demand and changes to the capacity of the world fleet. The capacity of the world shipping fleet appears likely to increase in the near term, although growth in the 3,000 to 8,000 cbm segment of
small LPG carriers is expected to be relatively limited in the period 2017-2018. Oil prices may remain low and economic growth may be limited in the near term, and possibly for an extended period, as a result of the current global economic
conditions, which could have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The factors affecting the supply

2009. Recovery of the global economy is proceeding at varying speeds across regions and remains subject to downside risks, including fragility of advanced economies and concerns over sovereign debt defaults by European Union member countries such as
Greece. More specifically, some LPG products we carry are used in cyclical businesses, such as the manufacturing of plastics and in the chemical industry, that were adversely affected by the economic downturn and, accordingly, continued weakness and
reduction in demand in those industries could adversely affect the LPG carrier industry. In particular, an adverse change in economic conditions affecting China, Japan, India or Southeast Asia generally could have a negative effect on the demand for
LPG products, thereby adversely affecting our business, financial position and results of operations, as well as our future prospects. In particular, in recent years China and India have been among the world&#146;s fastest growing economies in terms
of gross domestic product, but have shown signs of slowing growth recently, particularly in China where concerns over a potentially significant slowdown in growth have emerged. Moreover, any further deterioration in the economy of the United States
or the European Union, including the impact of the European sovereign debt and banking crisis, may further adversely affect economic growth in Asia. In addition, as a result of the ongoing economic slump in Greece resulting from the sovereign debt
crisis and the related austerity measures implemented by the Greek government, our operations in Greece may be subjected to new regulations that may require us to incur new or additional compliance or other administrative costs and may require that
we pay to the Greek government new taxes or other fees. Furthermore, the change in the Greek government and potential shift in its policies may undermine Greece&#146;s political and economic stability, which may adversely affect our operations and
those of our manager located in Greece. We also face the risk that strikes, work stoppages, civil unrest and violence, as well as capital controls implemented in 2015 within Greece, may disrupt our shore side operations and those of our manager
located in Greece. Our business, financial position and results of operations, as well as our future prospects, could likely be materially and adversely affected by adverse economic conditions in any of these countries or regions. </FONT></P>

fall and winter months in anticipation of increased consumption of propane and butane for heating during the winter months. In addition, unpredictable weather patterns in these months tend to disrupt vessel scheduling and supplies of certain
commodities. As a result, our revenues may be stronger in fiscal quarters ended December&nbsp;31 and March&nbsp;31, and conversely, our revenues may be weaker during the fiscal quarters ended June&nbsp;30 and September&nbsp;30. This seasonality

increase in the supply of LPG from these projects may be delayed significantly. The recent declines in oil prices and natural gas could exacerbate these dynamics. If the supply of natural gas decreases, we may see a concurrent reduction in the
production of LPG, resulting in lesser demand and lower charter rates for our vessels, which could ultimately have a material adverse impact on our revenues, operations and future growth. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

impairment adjustment in our financial statements, which would also result in a reduction in our profits. If the market value of our fleet declines, we may not be in compliance with certain provisions of our existing loan agreements and we may not
be able to refinance our debt or obtain additional financing or, if reinstated, pay dividends. If we are unable to pledge additional collateral, our lenders could accelerate our debt and foreclose on our fleet. The loss of our vessels would mean we

those laws and regulations are often revised, we cannot predict the ultimate cost of complying with them, or the impact they may have on the resale prices or useful lives of our vessels. However, a failure to comply with applicable laws and
regulations may result in administrative and civil penalties, criminal sanctions or the suspension or termination of our operations. Additional laws and regulations may be adopted which could limit our ability to do business or increase the cost of

have adopted, or are considering the adoption of, regulatory frameworks to reduce greenhouse gas emission from ships. These regulatory measures may include adoption of cap and trade regimes, carbon taxes, increased efficiency standards and
incentives or mandates for renewable energy. Emissions of greenhouse gases from international shipping currently are not subject to the Kyoto Protocol to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, or the &#147;Kyoto Protocol&#148;,
or any amendments or successor agreements, including the Paris Agreement adopted under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change in December 2015, which contemplates commitments from each nation party thereto to take action to reduce
greenhouse gas emissions and limit increases in global temperatures but did not include any restrictions or other measures specific to shipping emissions. However, restrictions on shipping emissions are likely to continue to be considered, and a new
treaty may be adopted in the future that includes additional restrictions on shipping emissions to those already adopted under the International Convention for the Prevention of Marine Pollution from Ships, or the &#147;MARPOL Convention&#148;.
Compliance with future changes in laws and regulations relating to climate change could increase the costs of operating and maintaining our ships and could require us to install new emission controls, as well as acquire allowances, pay taxes related

STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">From time to time on charterers&#146; instructions, our vessels have called and may again call on ports located in countries subject to sanctions and embargoes imposed by the United States government and
countries identified by the United States government as state sponsors of terrorism, such as Iran, Sudan and Syria. 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. On January&nbsp;16, 2016, &#147;Implementation Day&#148; for the Iran Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), the
United States lifted its nuclear-related secondary sanctions against Iran which prohibited certain conduct by non-U.S. companies and individuals that occurred entirely outside of U.S. jurisdiction involving specified industry sectors in Iran,
including the energy, petrochemical, automotive, financial, banking, mining, shipbuilding and shipping sectors. By lifting the secondary sanctions against Iran, the U.S. government effectively removed U.S. imposed restraints on dealings by non-U.S.
companies, such as our Company, and individuals with these formerly targeted Iranian business sectors. Non-U.S. companies continue to be prohibited under U.S. sanctions from (i)&nbsp;knowingly engaging in conduct that seeks to evade U.S.
restrictions on transactions or dealings with Iran or that causes the export of goods or services from the United States to Iran, (ii)&nbsp;exporting, re-exporting or transferring to Iran any goods, technology, or services originally exported from
the U.S. and / or subject to U.S. export jurisdiction and (iii)&nbsp;conducting transactions with of the Iranian or Iran-related individuals and entities that remain or are placed in the future on OFAC&#146;s list of Specially Designated Nationals
and Blocked Persons (SDN List), notwithstanding the lifting of secondary sanctions. The U.S. has the ability to re-impose sanctions against Iran, including if, in the future, Iran does not comply with its obligations under the nuclear agreement.

U.S. persons continue to be broadly prohibited from engaging in transactions or dealings with the Government of Iran and Iranian financial institutions, which effectively impacts the transfer of funds to, from, or through the U.S. financial system
whether denominated in US dollars or any other currency. As a result of the lifting of U.S. secondary sanctions (and relevant EU sanctions), we can anticipate that some of our charterers may direct us to carry cargoes to or from Iran. This could
have various effects on us, such as affecting our reputation and our relationships with our investors and financing sources, affecting the cost of our insurance and enhancing our exposure to foreign currency fluctuations due to the need for non-US
dollar payments with respect to such voyages. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">None of our vessels called in any ports in Cuba, Sudan or Syria or in Iran in

countries targeted by economic sanctions unless such transportation activities involving sanctioned countries are permitted under applicable economic sanctions and embargo regimes. Our ordinary chartering policy is to seek to include similar
provisions in all of our period charters. Prior to agreeing to waive existing charter party restrictions on carrying cargoes to or from ports that may implicate sanctions risks, we ensure that the charterers have proof of compliance with

result in some investors deciding, or being required, to divest their interest, or not to invest, in the Company. Additionally, some investors may decide to divest their interest, or not to invest, in the Company simply because we do business with
companies that do lawful business in sanctioned countries. 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. Investor perception of the value of our common stock may also be adversely affected by the consequences of war, the effects of terrorism, civil unrest and governmental actions in these and surrounding countries.

in the case of our product carriers the refined petroleum product carrier sector and in the case of our crude oil tanker the crude oil tanker sector, of the shipping industry and the overall financial condition of the counterparties. In addition, in
depressed market conditions, charterers may seek to renegotiate their charters or may default on their obligations under charters and our charterers may fail to pay charter hire or attempt to renegotiate charter rates. Should a counterparty fail to
honor its obligations under agreements with us, it may be difficult to secure substitute employment for such vessel, and any new charter arrangements we secure in the spot market or on bareboat or time charters could be at lower rates. If we lose a
charter, we may be unable to re-deploy the related vessel on terms as favorable to us. We would not receive any revenues from such a vessel while it remained unchartered, but we may be required to pay expenses necessary to maintain the vessel in
proper operating condition, insure it and service any indebtedness secured by such vessel. The failure by charterers to meet their obligations to us or an attempt by charterers to renegotiate our charter agreements could have a material adverse

among other things, obtaining profitable spot charters, which depends greatly on vessel supply and demand, and minimizing, to the extent possible, time spent waiting for charters and time spent traveling unloaded to pick up cargo. When the current
charters for our fleet expire or are terminated, it may not be possible to re-charter these vessels at similar rates, or at all, or to secure charters for our contracted LPG carrier acquisitions at similarly profitable rates, or at all. As a result,

that is based, in part, upon the market value of the vessels securing the applicable loan, as well as a minimum ratio of the market value of vessels securing a loan to the principal amount outstanding under such loan. The market value of LPG
carriers, product carriers and crude oil tankers is sensitive to, among other things, changes in the LPG carrier, product carrier and crude oil tanker charter markets, respectively, with vessel values deteriorating in times when LPG carrier, product
carrier and tanker charter rates, as applicable, are falling and improving when charter rates are anticipated to rise. Lower charter rates in the LPG carrier, product carrier and crude oil tanker markets coupled with the difficulty in obtaining
financing for vessel purchases have adversely affected product carrier and Aframax tanker values, and the impact of the dramatic decline in oil prices on demand for LPG has adversely affected LPG carrier values since the fourth quarter of 2014. A
continuation of these conditions would lead to a significant decline in the fair market values of our vessels, which may result in our not being in compliance with these loan covenants. If the value of our vessels deteriorates significantly, we may
have to record an impairment adjustment in our financial statements as we did in 2016, 2015 and 2014, which would adversely affect our financial results and further hinder our ability to raise capital. </FONT></P>

impair our ability to continue to conduct our business. If our indebtedness is accelerated, we may not be able to refinance our debt or obtain additional financing and could lose our vessels if our lenders foreclose their liens. In addition, if we
find it necessary to sell our vessels at a time when vessel prices are low, we will recognize losses and a reduction in our earnings, which could affect our ability to raise additional capital necessary for us to comply with our loan agreements.

such as Greece, for example, and concerns over debt levels of certain other European Union member states and in other countries around the world, as well as concerns about international banks,
have led to increased volatility in global credit and equity markets. These issues, along with the re-pricing of credit risk and the difficulties currently experienced by financial institutions, have made, and will likely continue to make, it
difficult to obtain financing. As a result of the disruptions in the credit markets and higher capital requirements, many lenders have increased margins on lending rates, enacted tighter lending standards, required more restrictive terms (including
higher collateral ratios for advances, shorter maturities and smaller loan amounts), or refused to refinance existing debt on terms similar to our current debt or at all. Furthermore, certain banks that have historically been significant lenders to
the shipping industry have reduced or ceased lending activities in the shipping industry. New banking regulations, including tightening of capital requirements and the resulting policies adopted by lenders, could further reduce lending activities.
We may experience difficulties in obtaining financing commitments, or be unable to fully draw on the capacity under our committed credit facilities in the future, or refinance our credit facilities when our current facilities mature if our lenders

investment property and rents and royalties other than rents and royalties which are received from unrelated parties in connection with the active conduct of a trade or business. For purposes of these tests, income derived from the performance of
services does not constitute &#147;passive income&#148; and working capital and similar assets held pending investment in vessels will generally be treated as an asset which produces passive income. United States stockholders of a PFIC are subject
to a disadvantageous United States federal income tax regime with respect to the income derived by the PFIC, the distributions they receive from the PFIC and the gain, if any, they derive from the sale or other disposition of their shares in the
PFIC. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In connection with determining our PFIC status we treat and intend to continue to treat the gross income that we derive
or are deemed to derive from our time chartering and voyage chartering activities as services income, rather than rental income. We believe that our income from time chartering and voyage chartering activities does not constitute &#147;passive
income&#148; and that the assets that we own and operate in connection with the production of that income do not constitute assets held for the production of passive income. We treat and intend to continue to treat, for purposes of the PFIC rules,
the income that we derive from bareboat charters as passive income and the assets giving rise to such income as assets held for the production of passive income. There is, however, no legal authority specifically under the PFIC rules regarding our
current and proposed method of operation and it is possible that the Internal Revenue Service, or IRS, may not accept our positions and that a court may uphold such challenge, in which case we and certain of our subsidiaries could be treated as
PFICs. In this regard we note that a federal court decision addressing the characterization of time charters concludes that they constitute leases for federal income tax purposes and employs an analysis which, if applied to our time charters, could
result in our treatment and the treatment of our vessel-owning subsidiaries as PFICs. In addition, in making the determination as to whether we are a PFIC, we intend to treat the deposits that we make on our newbuilding contracts and that are with
respect to vessels we do not expect to bareboat charter as assets which are not held for the production of passive income for purposes of determining whether we are a PFIC. We note that there is no direct authority on this point and it is possible
that the IRS may disagree with our position. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We do not believe that we were a PFIC for 2016. This belief is based in part
upon our beliefs regarding the value of the assets that we hold for the production of or in connection with the production of passive income relative to the value of our other assets. Should these beliefs turn out to be incorrect, then we and
certain of our subsidiaries could be treated as PFICs for 2016. In this regard we note that our beliefs and expectations regarding the relative values of our assets place us close to the threshold for PFIC status, and thus a relatively small
deviance between our beliefs and expectations and actual values could result in the treatment of us and certain of our subsidiaries as PFICs. There can be no assurance that the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (&#147;IRS&#148;) or a court will not
determine values for our assets that would cause us to be treated as a PFIC for 2016 or a subsequent year. </FONT></P>

In addition, although we do not believe that we were a PFIC for 2016, we may choose to operate our business in the current or in future taxable years in a manner that could cause us to become a
PFIC for those years. Because our status as a PFIC for any taxable year will not be determinable until after the end of the taxable year, and depends upon our assets, income and operations in that taxable year, there can be no assurance that we will
not be considered a PFIC for 2017 or any future taxable year. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">If the IRS were to find that we are or have been a PFIC for any

stockholders, as discussed below under &#147;Item 10 Additional Information&#151;Tax Consequences&#151;United States Federal Income Taxation of United States Holders&#148;), such stockholders would be liable to pay United States federal income tax
at the then prevailing income tax rates on ordinary income plus interest upon excess distributions and upon any gain from the disposition of our shares of common stock, as if the excess distribution or gain had been recognized ratably over the
stockholder&#146;s holding period of our shares of common stock. See &#147;Item 10. Additional Information&#151;Tax Consequences&#151;United States Federal Income Tax Consequences&#151;United States Federal Income Taxation of United States

our vessels and reduce the market value of our vessels, our Board of Directors decided, in the first quarter of 2009, to suspend dividend payments. As our contracted newbuildings are delivered, paid for and begin to generate revenue, our board of
directors will evaluate our dividend policy consistent with our cash flows and liquidity requirements. In addition, other external factors, such as our existing loan agreements, future financing arrangements and capital expenditures, as well as
Marshall Islands law, may also restrict or prohibit our declaration and payment of dividends under some circumstances. For instance, we are not permitted to declare or pay cash dividends, or repurchase shares, in any twelve month period that exceed
50% of our free cash flow in the preceding twelve month period. Due to these constraints on dividend payments we may not be able to pay regular quarterly dividends in the future. See &#147;Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and

restrictions in our loan agreements or other financing arrangements, the provisions of Marshall Islands law affecting the payment of dividends and other factors. Marshall Islands law generally prohibits the payment of dividends other than from
surplus or while a company is insolvent or would be rendered insolvent upon the payment of such dividends. </FONT></P>

are all byproducts of the production of crude oil and natural gas. The three medium range product carriers in our fleet are capable of carrying refined petroleum products such as gasoline, diesel, fuel oil and jet fuel, as well as edible oils and
chemicals, while our Aframax tanker is used for carrying crude oil. We believe that we have established a reputation as a safe, cost-efficient operator of modern and well-maintained LPG carriers. We also believe that these attributes, together with
our strategic focus on meeting our customers&#146; chartering needs, has contributed to our ability to attract leading charterers as our customers and to our success in obtaining charter renewals. We are managed by Stealth Maritime, a privately

functions include but are not limited to accounting, back-office, reporting, legal and secretarial services. In addition, Stealth Maritime provides services for the chartering of our vessels and monitoring thereof, freight collection, and sale and

period charters, including time and bareboat charters that can last up to several years, and spot market charters (through voyage charters and short-term time charters), which generally last from one to six months, subject to market conditions. Time
and bareboat charters are for a fixed period of time. A voyage charter is generally a contract to carry a specific cargo from a loading port to a discharging port for an agreed-upon total charge. Under voyage charters we pay for voyage expenses such
as port, canal and fuel costs. Under a time charter the charterer pays for voyage expenses while under a bareboat charter the charterer pays for voyage expenses and operating expenses such as crewing, supplies, maintenance and repairs including
special survey and dry-docking costs. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Vessels operating in the spot market generate revenues that are less predictable but
may enable us to capture increased profit margins during periods of improvements in LPG charter rates, although we are then exposed to the risk of declining LPG carrier charter rates. Typically spot market charters can last from a few days up to two
months. If we commit vessels to period charters, future spot market rates may be higher or lower than those rates at which we have period chartered our vessels. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

Beginning in 2011 the amendments required a progressive reduction of sulfur levels in bunker fuels to be phased in by 2020 and imposed more stringent nitrogen oxide emission standards on marine diesel engines, depending on their date of
installation. Since January&nbsp;1, 2012, the amended Annex VI required that fuel oil contain no more than 3.50% sulfur. More stringent emission standards apply in coastal areas designated by the IMO as Emission Control Areas, or ECAs, such as the
Baltic and North Seas, United States and Canadian coastal areas, and the United States Caribbean Sea. As of January&nbsp;1, 2015, vessels operating within an ECA must use fuel with a sulfur content that does not exceed 0.10%. We have obtained

STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The IMO confirmed in October 2016 that a global 0.5% sulfur cap on marine fuels will come into force on January&nbsp;1, 2020, as agreed in amendments adopted in 2008 for Annex VI to MARPOL. Annex VI sets
progressively stricter regulations to control sulfur oxides (SOx) and nitrous oxides (NOx) emissions from ships, which present both environmental and health risks. The 0.5% sulfur cap marks a significant reduction from the current global sulfur cap
of 3.5%, which had been implemented since January&nbsp;1, 2012. When the 2020 sulfur cap was decided upon in 2008, it was also agreed that a review should be undertaken by 2018 to assess whether there was sufficient compliant fuel available to meet
the 2020 date, failing which, the date could be deferred to 2025. That review was completed in July 2016 by a consortium of consultants led by CE Delft and submitted to the IMO&#146;s Marine Environment Protection Committee (MEPC) during their 70th
session. The review concluded that sufficient compliant fuel would be available to meet the new requirement. However, there have been competing studies, that hold the opposing view that refining capacity will not be sufficient in 2020, with an
estimated <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">60-70%</FONT> additional sulfur plant capacity required by 2020. There have also been questions as to how the sulfur cap will be enforced, as it is up to individual parties to MARPOL to enforce fines and

regulated vessel is strictly liable for pollution damage in the territorial waters or exclusive economic zone of a contracting state caused by the discharge of any oil from the ship, subject to certain defenses. Under an amendment to the 1992

for pollution damage in an amount equal to the limits of liability under the applicable national or international limitation regime (but not exceeding the amount calculated in accordance with the Convention on Limitation of Liability for Maritime
Claims of 1976, as amended). Because the Bunker Convention does not apply to pollution damage governed by the CLC, it applies only to discharges from any of our vessels that are not transporting oil. The Bunker Convention entered into force on
November&nbsp;21, 2008 and as of March&nbsp;10, 2015, has been ratified by 78 states. In other jurisdictions, liability for spill or releases of oil from ship&#146;s bunkers typically is determined by national or other domestic laws in the

the &#147;2010 HNS Convention&#148;), if it enters into force. The Convention creates a regime of liability and compensation for damage from hazardous and noxious substances (or HNS), including liquefied gases. The 2010 HNS Convention sets up a
two-tier system of compensation composed of compulsory insurance taken out by ship owners and an HNS Fund that will come into play when the insurance is insufficient to satisfy a claim or does not cover the incident. Under the 2010 HNS Convention,
if damage is caused by bulk HNS, claims for compensation will first be sought from the ship owner up to a maximum of 100&nbsp;million Special Drawing Rights (or SDR). If the damage is caused by packaged HNS or by both bulk and packaged HNS, the
maximum liability is 115&nbsp;million SDR. Once the limit is reached, compensation will be paid from the HNS Fund up to a maximum of 250&nbsp;million SDR. The 2010 HNS Convention has not been ratified by a sufficient number of countries to enter

regulations call for a phased introduction of mandatory ballast water exchange requirements to be replaced in time with mandatory concentration limits. Upon entry into force of the BWM Convention, mid-ocean ballast exchange would be mandatory. The
BWM Convention will not become effective until 12 months after it has been adopted by 30 states, the combined merchant fleets of which represent not less than 35% of the gross tonnage of the world&#146;s merchant shipping. On September&nbsp;8, 2016,
this threshold was met (with 52 contracting parties making up 35.14%). Thus, the BWM Convention will enter into force on September&nbsp;8, 2017. Many of the implementation dates in the BWM Convention have already passed, so that once the BWM
Convention enters into force, the period of installation of mandatory ballast water exchange requirements would be extremely short, with several thousand ships a year needing to install ballast water management systems (&#147;BWMS&#148;). For this
reason, on December&nbsp;4, 2013, the IMO Assembly passed a resolution revising the application dates of the BWM Convention so that they are triggered by the entry into force date and not the dates originally in the BWM Convention. This, in effect,
makes all vessels constructed before the entry into force date &#147;existing vessels&#148; and allows for the installation of a BWMS on such vessels at the first renewal survey following entry into force of the convention. Each vessel in our
current fleet has been issued or will be issued a BWM plan Statement of Compliance by the classification society with respect to the applicable IMO regulations and guidelines. The cost of compliance could increase for our vessels as a result of

Species Act, or NISA. The regulations, which became effective on June&nbsp;21, 2012, set maximum acceptable discharge limits for living organisms and established standards for ballast water management systems, and they are consistent with the
requirements under the 2004 BWM Convention described above. The new requirements are being phased in based on the size of the vessel and its next drydocking date. However, the U.S. Coast Guard must approve any ballast water management technology
before it is placed on a vessel, but has yet to do so. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The U.S. Clean Water Act (&#147;CWA&#148;) prohibits the discharge of
oil or hazardous substances in navigable waters and imposes strict liability in the form of penalties for any unauthorized discharges. The CWA also imposes substantial liability for the costs of removal, remediation and damages and complements the
remedies available under OPA 90. Under U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (&#147;EPA&#148;) regulations we are required to obtain a CWA permit to discharge ballast water and other wastewaters incidental to the normal operation of our vessels if we
operate within the three mile territorial waters or inland waters of the United States. This permit, which the EPA has designated as the Vessel General Permit for Discharges Incidental to the Normal Operation of Vessels, or VGP, incorporates the
current U.S. Coast Guard requirements for ballast water management, as well as supplemental ballast water requirements, and includes requirements applicable to 26 specific discharge streams, such as deck runoff, bilge water and gray water. The U.S.
Coast Guard and the EPA have entered into a memorandum of understanding which provides for collaboration on the enforcement of the VGP requirements. As a result, it is expected that the U.S. Coast Guard will include the VGP as part of its normal
Port State Control inspections. The EPA issued a new VGP that became effective in December 2013. Among other things, it contained numeric ballast water discharge limits for most vessels and more stringent requirements for exhaust gas scrubbers and
required the use of environmentally friendly lubricants. We have submitted NOIs (Notices Of Intent) for Discharges Incidental to the Normal Operation of a Vessel under the 2013 VGP to the U.S. EPA for all our ships trading in U.S. waters. Vessels
are subject to the EPA and Coast Guard ballast water management requirements despite the lack of U.S. Coast Guard&#151;approved ballast water management technology. The U.S. Coast Guard has provided waivers to vessels that cannot install the as-yet
unapproved technology. The EPA, on the other hand, has taken a different approach to enforcing the ballast water management standards in the 2013 VGP. Under a December&nbsp;27, 2013 policy the agency may consider why vessels do not have the
requisite ballast water management technology installed when taking actions to compel compliance with the requirements of the 2013 VGP. The ballast water management standards of the 2013 VGP were challenged by the Canadian Shipowners&#146;
Association in the U.S. Second Circuit Court of Appeals. The U.S. Second Circuit Court of Appeals ruled on October&nbsp;5, 2015 that EPA acted arbitrarily and capriciously with respect to certain of the ballast water provisions in the 2013 VGP. The
Court remanded the issue to EPA to either justify its approach in the 2013 VGP&nbsp;or redraft the ballast water sections of the VGP consistent with the Court&#146;s ruling. In the meantime, the 2013 VGP will remain in effect. Compliance with the
EPA and Coast Guard ballast water management regulations could require the installation of equipment on our vessels to treat ballast water before it is discharged or the implementation of other port facility disposal arrangements at potentially
substantial cost, or may otherwise restrict our vessels from entering U.S. waters. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Climate Control Initiatives </I></FONT></P>

United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change in December 2015, contemplates commitments from each nation party thereto to take action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and limit
increases in global temperatures but did not include any restrictions or other measures specific to shipping emissions. However, restrictions on shipping emissions are likely to continue to be considered and a new treaty may be adopted in the future
that includes restrictions on shipping emissions. International or multi-national bodies or individual countries may adopt their own climate change regulatory initiatives. The IMO&#146;s Marine Environment Protection Committee adopted two new sets
of mandatory requirements to address greenhouse gas emissions from shipping that entered into force in January 2013. The Energy Efficiency Design Index establishes minimum energy efficiency levels per capacity mile and applies to new vessels.
Currently operating vessels must develop and implement Ship Energy Efficiency Plans. These new requirements could cause us to incur additional costs to comply. The IMO is also considering the development of market-based mechanisms for limiting
greenhouse gas emissions from ships, but it is impossible to predict the likelihood of adoption of such a standard or the impact on our operations. In April 2015, the EU adopted regulations requiring the monitoring and reporting of greenhouse gas
emissions from marine vessels (of over 5,000 gross tons) beginning in January 2018. Negotiators from the European Parliament and the European Union Council provisionally adopted rules to implement the strategy and the European Parliament and Council
of Ministers are expected to formally endorse the regulations. The United&nbsp;States EPA has issued a finding that greenhouse gas emissions endanger the public health and safety and has adopted regulations under the Clean Air Act to limit emissions
of greenhouse gases from certain mobile sources and proposed regulations to limit greenhouse gas emissions from large stationary sources. Although the mobile source regulations do not apply to greenhouse gas emissions from vessels, EPA is
considering a petition from the California Attorney General and environmental groups to regulate greenhouse gas emissions from ocean-going vessels. Any passage of climate control initiatives by the IMO, the EU or the individual countries in which we
operate that limit greenhouse gas emissions from vessels could require us to limit our operations or make significant financial expenditures that we cannot predict with certainty at this time. Passage of climate control initiatives that affect the
demand for LPG products and oil may also materially affect our business. Even in the absence of climate control legislation and regulations, our business may be materially affected to the extent that climate change may result in sea level changes or
more intense weather events. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Vessel Security Regulations </I></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

primarily on supply and demand of vessels and cargoes. While the worldwide LPG sector is comparatively smaller than other shipping sectors, consisting of vessels of varying sizes between 1,000 and 85,000 cbm, it is a diversified global market with
many charterers, owners and operators of vessels. As of April&nbsp;1, 2017, our LPG carrier fleet, including our two chartered in vessels, had an average age of 9.9 years, and we had four newbuildings scheduled to be delivered from the second
quarter of 2017 to the second quarter of 2018, representing an aggregate capacity of approximately 34.1% of our existing LPG fleet&#146;s capacity. Accordingly, we believe we are well positioned from a competitive standpoint in terms of our vessels
meeting the ongoing needs of charterers. Also, as of April&nbsp;1, 2017, we had one of the largest single-owned fleets in our primary sector segment (3,000 cbm to 8,000 cbm), which, in our view, also positions us well from the standpoint of
charterers and competitors. We believe, however, that the LPG shipping sector will continue to be highly competitive, and will be driven by both energy production and consumption. </FONT></P>

as gasoline, diesel, fuel oil and jet fuel, as well as edible oils and chemicals, is highly diversified and is divided among many independent tanker owners. Many oil companies and other oil trading companies, the principal charterers of our product
carriers and crude oil tankers, also operate their own vessels and transport oil for themselves and third party charterers in direct competition with independent owners and operators. Competition for charters, including for the transportation of oil
and oil products, can be intense and depends on price as well as on the location, size, age, condition, specifications and acceptability of the vessel and its operator to the charterer and is frequently tied to having an available vessel with the
appropriate approvals from oil majors. Principal factors that are important to our charterers include the quality and suitability of the vessel, its age, technical sophistication, safety record, compliance with IMO standards and the heightened
industry standards that have been set by some energy companies, and the competitiveness of the bid in terms of overall price. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Seasonality

to oil producers, refineries and commodities traders. As of December&nbsp;31, 2016 we operated a fleet of 51 LPG carriers, including 49 vessels we own and two vessels we charter-in, that carry various petroleum gas products in liquefied form,
including propane, butane, butadiene, isopropane, propylene and VCM (&#147;Vinyl Chloride Monomer&#148;), three medium range product carriers that carry refined petroleum products such as gasoline, diesel, fuel oil and jet fuel, as well as edible
oils and chemicals, and one Aframax tanker which is used for carrying crude oil. In addition, we are scheduled to take delivery of an additional four newbuilding eco LPG carriers of 22,000 cbm each, three scheduled for delivery in 2017 and one in
2018. Once the delivery of these newbuildings is completed, our fleet will be composed of 53 LPG carriers, excluding the two vessels that are chartered in, with a total capacity of 331,012 cbm, three medium range product carriers with a total
capacity of 140,000 dwt and one 115,804 dwt crude oil tanker, assuming no further acquisitions or dispositions. For the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2014, 2015 and 2016, we owned an average of 44.1, 48.8 and 53.4 vessels, respectively, generating

orders, thereby increasing the global supply of LPG carriers, satisfying demand sooner and potentially suppressing charter rates. With regard to the four tankers in our fleet, one of our product carriers is employed on a time charter expiring in
January 2018 and two of the product carriers are deployed on fixed rate bareboat charters expiring in July 2017 and February 2019, while the Aframax tanker is deployed on a fixed rate bareboat charter that expires in April 2018, which has limited

take advantage of improving charter rates as we could if our vessels were employed only on spot charters. Vessels operating in the spot charter market generate revenues that are less predictable but may enable us to capture increased profit margins
during periods of improving charter rates, although we are then exposed to the risk of declining LPG carrier, product carrier or crude oil tanker charter rates, which may have a materially adverse impact on our financial performance. If we commit

<P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Voyage expenses include port and canal charges, bunkers (fuel oil) expenses and commissions. These charges and expenses increase in
periods during which vessels are employed on the spot market, because under these charters, these expenses are for the account of the vessel owner. Under period charters, these charges and expenses, including bunkers (fuel oil) but excluding
commissions which are always paid by the vessel owner, are paid by the charterer. Bunkers (fuel oil), the price of which has declined since the third quarter of 2014 as a result of the decline in oil prices, accounted for 39.7% of total voyage
expenses for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2016, 48.7% of total voyage expenses for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2015 and 53.6% of total voyage expenses for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2014. Commissions on hire are paid to our manager
Stealth Maritime and/or third party brokers. Stealth Maritime receives a fixed brokerage commission of 1.25% on freight, hire and demurrage for each vessel based on our management agreement since 2005. In 2016, port and canal charges and bunker
expenses represented a relatively small portion of our vessels&#146; overall expenses, 6.9%, because the majority of our vessels were employed under period charters, including time and bareboat charters, that require the charterer to bear such
expenses. As of April&nbsp;1, 2017, we had 8 vessels in the spot market for which we pay voyage expenses; the corresponding number as of April&nbsp;1, 2016 was 13 and as of April&nbsp;1, 2015 was 10. </FONT></P>

the Company performs an analysis of the anticipated undiscounted future net cash flows of the related long-lived assets. If the carrying value of the related asset exceeds the undiscounted cash flows, the carrying value is reduced to its fair value

cash from operating activities, and, in the long term, bank borrowings and equity financings. We expect to fund the remaining purchase price of $110.0 million for the three newbuilding vessels scheduled to be delivered in 2017 and the two
installments payable in 2017 for the vessel scheduled to be delivered in 2018 of $10.4 million, with available cash and borrowings under two new credit facilities which we have entered into. Beyond 2017, our liquidity needs will additionally include
capital expenditures for the remaining balance of the purchase price of one additional LPG carrier newbuilding which amounts to approximately $36.8 million which we expect to fund with borrowings under our two new credit facilities. As of
December&nbsp;31, 2016, we had paid a total of $52.1 million in deposits for four LPG carrier newbuildings which had an aggregate remaining purchase price of $157.3 million. The aforementioned amount is payable in the amount of $120.5 million in

are determined by the underlying balance in demand and supply for our vessels. Demand for LPG transportation is influenced by various global economic factors and trade patterns, while the supply is primarily a factor of the fleet growth, determined
by the number of vessels in the order book entering the fleet and the number of vessels exiting the fleet, primarily sold for demolition. As a result, the LPG shipping sector has been a highly cyclical industry experiencing volatility in charter
hire rates and vessel values. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">After increasing throughout 2007 and into 2008, charter rates for small LPG carriers declined
in the second half of 2008 and in 2009 as a result of slowdown in the world economy. Although there had been some improvement from the fourth quarter of 2011 to the third quarter of 2014, charter rates have since declined due largely to the dramatic
decline in oil prices and rates remain well below levels reached in 2007 and 2008 and could further decline. Future growth in the demand for LPG carriers and charter rates will depend on economic growth in the world economy and demand for LPG
product transportation that exceeds the capacity of the growing worldwide LPG carrier fleet&#146;s ability to match it. Global financial conditions remain volatile and demand for LPG transportation may decrease in the future. We believe that the
future growth in demand for LPG carriers and the charter rate levels will depend primarily upon the supply and demand for LPG particularly in the economies of the Middle East where large quantities are produced and the Far East, and upon seasonal
and regional changes in demand and changes to the capacity of the world fleet. The capacity of the world shipping </FONT></P>

If the carrying value of the related asset exceeds the undiscounted cash flows and the fair market value of the asset, the carrying value is reduced to its fair value and the difference is recorded as an impairment loss in the consolidated statement
of operations. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We review certain indicators of potential impairment, such as undiscounted projected operating cash flows,
vessel sales and purchases, business plans and overall market conditions including any regulatory changes that may have a material impact on the vessel lives. The decline in the values of some of the vessels included in our LPG fleet and the decline
in the global economy were considered to be indicators of potential impairment. As of December&nbsp;31, 2016 we performed step one, the undiscounted cash flow test as required by the ASC guidance. We determined undiscounted projected net operating
cash flows for each vessel and compared it to the vessel&#146;s carrying value. This assessment was made at the individual vessel level since separately identifiable cash flow information for each vessel was available. In developing estimates of
future cash flows to be generated over remaining useful lives of the vessels, we made assumptions about the future, such as: (1)&nbsp;vessel charter rates, (2)&nbsp;vessel utilization rates, (3)&nbsp;vessel operating expenses, (4)&nbsp;dry docking
costs, (5)&nbsp;vessel scrap values at the end of vessels&#146; remaining useful lives and (6)&nbsp;the remaining useful lives of the vessels. These assumptions were based on historical trends as well as future expectations in line with our
historical performance and our expectations for future fleet utilization under our current fleet deployment strategy, vessel sales and purchases, and overall market conditions. </FONT></P>

owned vessels in the water have current carrying values above their market values (20 of our 53 vessels in the water as at December&nbsp;31, 2015). We believe that the aggregate carrying value of these vessels, assessed separately, exceeds their

the vessels. The Company would not record an impairment charge for any of the vessels for which the fair market value is below its carrying value unless and until the Company either determines to sell the vessel for a loss or determines that the
vessel&#146;s carrying amount is not recoverable. The Company believes that the undiscounted projected net operating cash flows over the estimated remaining useful lives for those vessels that have experienced declines in estimated market values
below their carrying values exceed such vessels&#146; carrying values as of December&nbsp;31, 2016, and accordingly has not recorded an impairment charge except for the impairment charge recorded for the vessels <I>Gas Moxie</I>, <I>Gas Emperor</I>,

depreciation: </I>We record the value of our vessels at their cost (which includes acquisition costs directly attributable to the vessel and expenditures made to prepare the vessel for its initial voyage) less accumulated depreciation. We depreciate
our vessels on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, estimated to be 25 to 30 years from date of initial delivery from the shipyard. We believe that a 30-year depreciable life is consistent with that of other gas vessel owners and
reflects management&#146;s intended use and a 25-year depreciable life is consistent with other product carrier vessel owners and reflects management&#146;s intended use. Depreciation is based on cost less the estimated residual scrap value. An
increase in the useful life of the vessel or in the residual value would have the effect of decreasing the annual depreciation charge and extending it into later periods. A decrease in the useful life of the vessel or in the residual value would
have the effect of increasing the annual depreciation charge. No events or circumstances occurred in 2016 that would require us to revise estimates related to depreciation and such revisions are not expected to occur in the future. </FONT></P>

guidance for derivatives and hedging activities. The accounting guidance for derivatives requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those instruments at fair
value. The accounting for the changes in the fair value of the derivative depends on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. For a derivative that does not qualify as a cash flow hedge, the change in fair value is
recognized at the end of each accounting period in the income statement. For a derivative that qualifies as a cash flow hedge, the change in fair value is recognized at the end of each reporting period in accumulated other comprehensive
income/(loss) (effective portion) until the hedged item is recognized in income. The ineffective portion of a derivative&#146;s change in fair value is immediately recognized in the income statement. <I> </I></FONT></P>

forecasted transaction occurs, any cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument is recognized in profit or loss. If a hedged transaction is no longer expected to occur, the net cumulative gain or loss recognized in Company&#146;s equity is

the merger did not require for its approval the vote of the stockholders of the surviving corporation. In the event of any further amendment of our articles of incorporation, a stockholder also has the right to dissent and receive payment for his or
her shares if the amendment alters certain rights in respect of those shares. The dissenting stockholder must follow the procedures set forth in the BCA to receive payment. In the event that we and any dissenting stockholder fail to agree on a price
for the shares, the BCA procedures involve, among other things, the institution of proceedings in the circuit court in the judicial circuit in the Marshall Islands in which our Marshall Islands office is situated. The value of the shares of the
dissenting stockholder is fixed by the court after reference, if the court so elects, to the recommendations of a court-appointed appraiser. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In connection with determining our PFIC status we treat and intend to continue to treat the gross income that we derive or are deemed to derive from our time chartering activities as services income,
rather than rental income. We believe that our income from time chartering activities does not constitute &#147;passive income&#148; and that the assets that we own and operate in connection with the production of that income do not constitute
assets held for the production of passive income. We treat and intend to continue to treat, for purposes of the PFIC rules, the income that we derive from bareboat charters as passive income and the assets giving rise to such income as assets held
for the production of passive income. We believe there is substantial authority supporting our position consisting of case law and IRS pronouncements concerning the characterization of income derived from time charters and voyage charters as
services income for other tax purposes. There is, however, no legal authority specifically under the PFIC rules regarding our current and proposed method of operation and it is possible that the Internal Revenue Service, or IRS, may not accept our
positions and that a court may uphold such challenge, in which case we and certain of our subsidiaries could be treated as PFICs. In this regard we note that a federal court decision, <I>Tidewater Inc. and Subsidiaries v. United States</I>, 565 F.3d
299 (5th Cir. 2009), held that income derived from certain time chartering activities should be treated as rental income rather than services income for purposes of the &#147;foreign sales corporation&#148; rules under the Code. The IRS has stated
that it disagrees with and will not acquiesce to the <I>Tidewater</I> decision, and in its discussion stated that the time charters at issue in <I>Tidewater</I> would be treated as producing services income for PFIC purposes. However, the IRS&#146;s
statement with respect to the <I>Tidewater</I> decision was an administrative action that cannot be relied upon or otherwise cited as precedent by taxpayers. Consequently, in the absence of any binding legal authority specifically relating to the
statutory provisions governing PFICs, there can be no assurance that the IRS or a court would agree with the <I>Tidewater</I> decision. In addition, in making the determination as to whether we are a PFIC, we intend to treat the deposits that we
make on our newbuilding contracts and that are with respect to vessels we do not expect to bareboat charter as assets which are not held for the production of passive income for purposes of determining whether we are a PFIC. We note that there is no
direct authority on this point and it is possible that the IRS may disagree with our position. However, if the principles of the <I>Tidewater</I> decision were applicable to our time charters, or our new build deposits were treated as assets
producing passive income, we would likely be treated as a PFIC. Moreover, although we intend to conduct our affairs in a manner to avoid being classified as a PFIC, we cannot assure you that the nature of our assets, income and operations will not
change, or that we can avoid being treated as a PFIC for any taxable year. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We do not believe that we were a PFIC for 2016.
This belief is based in part upon our beliefs regarding the value of the assets that we hold for the production of or in connection with the production of passive income relative to the value of our other assets. Should these beliefs turn out to be
incorrect, then we and certain of our subsidiaries could be treated as PFICs for 2016. In this regard we note that our beliefs and expectations regarding the relative values of our assets place us close to the threshold for PFIC status, and thus a
relatively small deviance between our beliefs and expectations and actual values could result in the treatment of us and certain of our subsidiaries as PFICs. There can be no assurance that the IRS or a court will not determine values for our assets
that would cause us to be treated as a PFIC for 2016 or a subsequent year. In addition, although we do not believe that we were a PFIC for 2016, we may choose to operate our business in the current or in future taxable years in a manner that could
cause us to become a PFIC for those years. Because our status as a PFIC for any taxable year will not be determinable until after the end of the taxable year, and depends upon our assets, income

<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As discussed more fully below, if we were to be treated as a PFIC for any taxable year, a United States Holder would be subject to
different taxation rules depending on whether the United States Holder makes an election to treat us as a &#147;Qualified Electing Fund,&#148; which election we refer to as a &#147;QEF election.&#148; As an alternative to making a QEF election, a
United States Holder should be able to make a &#147;mark-to-market&#148; election with respect to our common stock, as discussed below. Regardless of whether a United States Holder makes a QEF election or a mark-to-market election, if we were to be
treated as a PFIC for any taxable year ending on or after December&nbsp;31, 2016, the United States Holder generally would be required to file an IRS Form 8621 reporting his ownership of shares in a PFIC. </FONT></P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">If a United States Holder makes a timely QEF election, which United States Holder we refer to as an &#147;Electing Holder,&#148; the
Electing Holder must report each year for United States federal income tax purposes his pro-rata share of our ordinary earnings and our net capital gain, if any, for our taxable year that ends with or within the taxable year of the Electing Holder,
regardless of whether or not distributions were received from us by the Electing Holder. Generally, a QEF election should be made on or before the due date for filing the electing United States Holder&#146;s U.S. federal income tax return for the
first taxable year in which our common stock is held by such United States Holder and we are classified as a PFIC. The Electing Holder&#146;s adjusted tax basis in the common stock will be increased to reflect taxed but undistributed earnings and
profits. Distributions of earnings and profits that had been previously taxed will result in a corresponding reduction in the adjusted tax basis in the common stock and will not be taxed again once distributed. An Electing Holder would generally
recognize capital gain or loss on the sale, exchange or other disposition of our common stock. A United States Holder would make a QEF election with respect to any year that our company and any PFIC Subsidiary is a PFIC by filing one copy of IRS
Form 8621 with his United States federal income tax return and a second copy in accordance with the instructions to such form. If we were aware that we were to be treated as a PFIC for any taxable year, we would provide each United States Holder
with all necessary information in order to make the QEF election described above with respect to our common stock and the stock of any Subsidiary PFIC. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:2%"><FONT

STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Alternatively, if we were to be treated as a PFIC for any taxable year and, as we anticipate, our common stock is treated as &#147;marketable stock,&#148; a United States Holder would be allowed to make a
&#147;mark-to-market&#148; election with respect to our common stock, provided the United States Holder completes and files IRS Form 8621 in accordance with the relevant instructions and related Treasury Regulations. If that election is made, the
United States Holder generally would include as ordinary income in each taxable year the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the common stock at the end of the taxable year over such holder&#146;s adjusted tax basis in the common stock. The
United States Holder would also be permitted an ordinary loss in respect of the excess, if any, of the United States Holder&#146;s adjusted tax basis in the common stock over its fair market value at the end of the taxable year, but only to the
extent of the net amount previously included in income as a result of the mark-to-market election. A United States Holder&#146;s tax basis in his common stock would be adjusted to reflect any such income or loss amount. Gain realized on the sale,
exchange or other disposition of our common stock would be treated as ordinary income, and any loss realized on the sale, exchange or other disposition of the common stock would be treated as ordinary loss to the extent that such loss does not
exceed the net mark-to-market gains previously included by the United States Holder. A mark-to-market election under the PFIC rules with respect to our common stock would not apply to a Subsidiary PFIC, and a United States Holder would not be able
to make such a mark-to-market election in respect of its indirect ownership interest in that Subsidiary PFIC. Consequently, United States Holders of our common stock could be subject to the PFIC rules with respect to income of the Subsidiary PFIC,
the value of which already had been taken into account indirectly via mark-to-market adjustments. </FONT></P>

including the impact of changes in interest rates, currency rates, and bunker prices on earnings and cash flows. We assess these risks and, when appropriate, enter into derivative contracts with credit-worthy counter parties to minimize our exposure
to the risks. In regard to bunker prices, as our employment policy for our vessels has continued to be and is expected to continue with a high percentage of our fleet on period employment, we are not directly exposed for the majority of our fleet to
increases in bunker fuel prices as these are the responsibility of the charterer under period charter arrangements. </FONT></P>

approximately 1.05% under our five floating-to-fixed rate interest rate swap agreements. We have not and do not intend to enter into interest rate swaps for speculative purposes. Based on the amount of our outstanding indebtedness as of
December&nbsp;31, 2016, and our interest swap arrangements as of December&nbsp;31, 2016, a hypothetical one percentage point increase in relevant interest rates (three and six month U.S. dollar LIBOR) would have increased our interest expense, on an

generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3)&nbsp;provide reasonable assurance regarding
prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company&#146;s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

fraud may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate
because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In our opinion, the

management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Other Comprehensive

books of the Company are maintained in U.S.&nbsp;Dollars. Transactions involving other currencies during the year are converted into U.S.&nbsp;Dollars using the exchange rates in effect at the time of the transactions. At the balance sheet dates,
monetary assets and liabilities, which are denominated in other currencies, are translated to reflect the period end exchange rates. Resulting gains or losses are separately reflected in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

banks that can only be used to pay the current loan installments or which are required to be maintained as a certain minimum cash balance per mortgaged vessel or cash held in restricted bank account for guarantees issued by the bank on the
Company&#146;s behalf. In the event that the obligation relating to such deposits is expected to be terminated within the next twelve months, these deposits are classified as current assets; otherwise they are classified as non-current assets.

hire, freight and demurrage billings, net of allowance for doubtful accounts. At each balance sheet date, all potentially un-collectible accounts are assessed individually for purposes of determining the appropriate provision for doubtful accounts.
No provision for doubtful accounts was required for any of the periods presented. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Claims

subject to litigation. Any remaining costs to complete the claims are included in accrued liabilities. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Inventories:</I></B>&nbsp;Inventories consist of bunkers (for vessels under voyage charter) and lubricants. The cost is determined
by the first-in, first-out method. The Company considers victualling and stores as being consumed when purchased and, therefore, such costs are expensed when incurred. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Vessels Acquisitions:</I></B>&nbsp;Vessels are stated at cost, which consists of the contract price less discounts and any material
expenses incurred upon acquisition (initial repairs, improvements, acquisition and expenditures made to prepare the vessel for its initial voyage). Subsequent expenditures for conversions and major improvements are also capitalized when they
appreciably extend the life, increase the earning capacity or improve the efficiency or safety of the vessels, or otherwise are charged to expenses as incurred. The Company records all identified tangible and intangible assets associated with the
acquisition of a vessel or liabilities at fair value. Where vessels are acquired with existing time charters, the Company allocates the purchase price to the time charters based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks
associated with the acquired charters) of the difference between (i)&nbsp;the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the charter terms and (ii)&nbsp;management&#146;s estimate of the fair market charter rate, measured over a period equal to the
remaining term of the charter. The capitalized above-market (assets) and below-market (liabilities) charters are amortized as a reduction and increase, respectively, to revenues over the remaining term of the charter. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets:</I></B>&nbsp;The Company follows the Accounting Standards Codification
(&#147;ASC&#148;) Subtopic 360-10, &#147;Property, Plant and Equipment&#148; (&#147;ASC 360-10&#148;), which requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the
undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than their carrying amounts. If indicators of impairment are present, the Company performs an analysis of the anticipated undiscounted future net cash flows of the related
long-lived assets.&nbsp;If the carrying value of the related asset exceeds the undiscounted cash flows, the carrying value is reduced to its fair value and the difference is recorded as an impairment loss in the consolidated statements of
operations.&nbsp;Various factors including anticipated future charter rates, estimated scrap values, future dry-docking costs and estimated vessel operating costs are included in this analysis. These factors are based on historical trends as well as
future expectations. Undiscounted cashflows are determined by considering the revenues from existing charters for those vessels that have long term employment and when there is no charter in place the estimates based on historical average rates with
an annual increase of 1%. The Company also assumes an average annual inflation rate of 1.50% for operating expenses. An impairment loss was identified and recorded for the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2014, 2015 and 2016 (Note 6). </FONT></P>

vessels is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the vessel&#146;s remaining economic useful life, after considering the estimated residual value. Management estimates the useful life of each of the Company&#146;s LPG carriers to be 30 years and
product and aframax tankers, to be 25&nbsp;years, from the date of their construction. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Assets Held for
Sale:&nbsp;</I></B>It is the Company&#146;s policy to dispose of vessels when suitable opportunities occur and not necessarily to keep them until the end of their useful life. The Company classifies vessels as being held for sale when the following
criteria are met: (i)&nbsp;management possessing the necessary authority has committed to a plan to sell the vessels, (ii)&nbsp;the vessels are available for immediate sale in their present condition, (iii)&nbsp;an active program to find a buyer and
other actions required to complete the plan to sell the vessels have been initiated, (iv)&nbsp;the sale of the vessels is probable, and transfer of the asset is expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year and (v)&nbsp;the
vessels are being actively marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable in relation to their current fair value and actions required to complete the plan indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be made or that the
plan will be withdrawn. Vessels classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. These vessels are not depreciated once they meet the criteria to be classified as held for sale.
Furthermore, in the period a vessel meets the held for sale criteria in accordance with ASC 360-10, a loss is recognized for any reduction of the vessel&#146;s carrying amount to its fair value less cost to sell. Concerning assets held for sale as
of December&nbsp;31, 2015, refer to Note 6. No assets were held for sale as of December&nbsp;31, 2016. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Segment
Reporting:</I></B>&nbsp;The Company reports financial information and evaluates its operations by total charter revenues and not by the type of vessel, length of vessel employment, customer or type of charter. As a result, management, including the
chief operating decision maker, reviews operating results solely by revenue per day and operating results of the fleet, and thus, the Company has determined that it operates under one reportable segment as well as one operating segment. Furthermore,
when the Company charters a vessel to a charterer, the charterer is free to trade the vessel worldwide and, as a result, the disclosure of geographical information is impracticable. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Accounting for Special Survey and Dry-docking Costs:</I></B>&nbsp;Special survey and dry-docking costs and all non-capitalizable

incurred for obtaining new loans or refinancing existing ones are deferred and amortized to interest expense over the life of the related debt using the effective interest method. The unamortized deferred financing charges are presented as a direct
deduction from the carrying amount of the related loan and credit facility in the consolidated balance sheet. Unamortized fees relating to loans repaid or refinanced are expensed in the period the repayment or refinancing is made. Deferred financing
costs relating to undrawn facilities are presented under non-current assets in the consolidated balance sheet. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Accounting for Revenue and Related Expenses:</I></B>&nbsp;The Company generates its revenues from charterers for the charter hire
of its vessels. Vessels are chartered using either voyage charters, where a contract is made in the spot market for the use of a vessel for a specific voyage for a specified charter rate, or time and bareboat charters, where a contract is entered
into for the use of a vessel for a specific period of time and a specified daily or monthly charter hire rate payable monthly in advance. If a charter agreement exists and the price is fixed, service is provided and collection of the related revenue
is reasonably assured, revenue is recognized as it is earned ratably on a straight-line basis over the duration of the period of each voyage or period charter. A voyage is deemed to commence upon the completion of discharge of the vessel&#146;s
previous cargo and is deemed to end upon the completion of discharge of the current cargo, but the Company does not begin recognizing revenue until a charter has been agreed to by the customer and the Company, even if the vessel has discharged its
cargo and is sailing to the anticipated load port for its next voyage. Demurrage income represents payments by a charterer to a vessel owner when loading or discharging time exceeds the stipulated time in the voyage charter and is recognized ratably
as earned during the related voyage charter&#146;s duration period. Deferred income includes cash received prior to the balance sheet date and is related to revenue earned after such date. </FONT></P>

life of the leased asset; (iv)&nbsp;or the present value of the minimum lease payments equals or exceeds 90% of the excess of fair value of the leased property. If none of the above criteria is met, the lease is accounted for as an operating lease.
Operating lease payments are recognized as an operating expense in the consolidated statement of operations on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For sale and lease back transactions, when the lease qualifies as an operating lease and the
lease back is considered &#147;more than minor but less than substantially all&#148; i.e. the seller-lessee retains more than a minor part but less than substantially all of the use of the asset, the resulting gains are deferred and amortized to

which is equal to the market value of the Company&#146;s common stock on the grant date. The shares that do not contain any future service vesting conditions are considered vested shares and a total fair value of such shares is recognized in full on
the grant date. The shares that contain a time-based service vesting condition are considered non-vested shares on the grant date and a total fair value of such shares is recognized over the vesting period on a straight-line basis over the requisite
service period for each separate portion of the award as if the award was, in substance, multiple awards (graded vesting attribution method). In addition, non-vested awards granted to non-employees are measured at their then-current fair value as of

could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised. Dilution is computed by either the treasury stock method or the two&#150;class method, whichever results in the more dilutive effect. Under the treasury stock method,
all of the Company&#146;s dilutive securities are assumed to be exercised or converted and the proceeds used to repurchase common shares at the weighted average market price of the Company&#146;s common stock during the relevant periods. The

transactions, an entity exiting a particular derivatives business or relationship, or because of laws or regulatory requirements. The amendments clarify that a change in the counterparty to a derivative instrument that has been designated as the
hedging instrument under the guidance for Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) does not, in and of itself, require dedesignation of that hedge accounting relationship provided that all other hedge accounting criteria continue to be met. The

generate outputs) constitutes an acquisition of business. This ASU provides a screen to determine when a set of assets and activities does not constitute a business. The screen requires that when substantially all of the fair value of the gross
assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, the set is not a business. This update is effective for public entities with reporting periods beginning after
December&nbsp;15, 2017, including interim periods within those years. The amendments of this ASU should be applied prospectively on or after the effective date. </FONT></P>

Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period 1) for transactions for which the acquisition date occurs before the issuance date or effective date of the ASU, only when the
transaction has not been reported in financial statements that have been issued or made available for issuance and 2) for transactions in which a subsidiary is deconsolidated or a group of assets is derecognized that occur before the issuance date
or effective date of the amendments, only when the transaction has not been reported in financial statements that have been issued or made available for issuance. The Company does not believe that the adoption of ASU 2017-01 will have a material
impact on its consolidated financial statements. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>3. Transactions with Related Parties </B></FONT></P>

STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Concentration of Credit Risk:</I></B>&nbsp;Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk, consist
principally of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, receivables from related party, trade and other receivables, claims receivable, payable to related party, trade accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The Company limits its credit risk
with respect to accounts receivable by performing ongoing credit evaluations of its customers&#146; financial condition and generally does not require collateral for its trade accounts receivable. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents,
time deposits and other investments with high credit quality financial institutions. The Company performs periodic evaluations of the relative credit standing of those financial institutions. The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of
non-performance by its counterparties to derivative instruments; however, the Company limits its exposure by transacting with counterparties with high credit ratings. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, receivables
from related party, trade and other receivables, claims receivable, payable to related party, trade accounts payable and accrued liabilities are reasonable estimates of their fair value due to the short term nature of these financial instruments.
Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash are considered Level 1 items as they represent liquid assets with short-term maturities. The fair value of long term bank loans is estimated based on current rates offered to the Company for similar debt
of the same remaining maturities. Their carrying value approximates their fair market value due to their variable interest rate, being LIBOR. LIBOR rates are observable at commonly quoted intervals for the full terms of the loans and hence floating
rate loans are considered Level 2 items in accordance with the fair value hierarchy. Additionally, the Company considers the creditworthiness of each counterparty when determining the fair value of the derivative instruments. The Company&#146;s
interest rate swap agreements are recorded at fair value. The fair value of the interest rate swaps is determined using a discounted cash flow method based on market-based LIBOR swap yield curves. LIBOR swap rates are observable at commonly quoted
intervals for the full terms of the swap and therefore are considered Level 2 items. </FONT></P>

STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Under the laws of the countries of the companies&#146; incorporation and/or vessels&#146; registration, the companies are not subject to tax on international shipping income, however, they are subject to

STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code of the United States (the &#147;Code&#148;), U.S.&nbsp;source income from the international operations of ships is generally exempt from U.S.&nbsp;tax if the Company
operating the ships meets certain requirements. Among other things, in order to qualify for this exemption, the Company operating the ships must be incorporated in a country which grants an equivalent exemption from income taxes to
U.S.&nbsp;corporations. All the Company&#146;s ship-operating subsidiaries satisfy these initial criteria. In addition, these companies must be more than 50% owned by individuals who are residents, as defined, in the country of incorporation or
another foreign country that grants an equivalent exemption to U.S.&nbsp;corporations. These companies also currently satisfy the more than 50% beneficial ownership requirement. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In addition, the management of the Company believes that by virtue of a special rule applicable to situations where the ship-operating
companies are beneficially owned by a publicly traded company like the Company, the more than 50% beneficial ownership requirement can also be satisfied based on the trading volume and the anticipated widely-held ownership of the Company&#146;s
shares, but no assurance can be given that this will remain so in the future, since continued compliance with this rule is subject to factors outside the Company&#146;s control. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

On August&nbsp;20, 2015, the Company in order to secure the vessel&#146;s release, lodged to the court a bank guarantee amounting to $9,837,000. As of December&nbsp;31, 2015, this amount was in a restricted account and is presented under current
restricted cash in the consolidated balance sheet. The bank guarantee was finally released on November&nbsp;17, 2016 and as the Company had anticipated, the outcome of this case did not have any material effect on its operations and financial

<P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In November and December 2014, the Company sold the vessels Gas Premiership and Gas Cathar and realized a total gain of $780,695. The
Company entered into bareboat charter agreements to leaseback the vessels for a period of four years. The charter back agreements are accounted for as operating leases and the gain on the sale was deferred and is being amortized to income over the
four-year lease period. On December&nbsp;16, 2016, the bareboat charter agreement for Gas Cathar was amended resulting in the extension of the charter period to five years and three months from the delivery date and to the reduction of monthly
charter hire. For the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2014, 2015 and 2016, the amortization amounted to $4,954, $195,040 and $195,574, respectively, and is included in Charter hire expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Lease payments
relating to the bareboat charters of the vessels amounted to $325,758, $4,320,000 and $4,249,961 for the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2014, 2015 and 2016, and are included in Charter hire expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.
Future lease payments as of December&nbsp;31, 2016, until the expiry of the charter back agreements, amount to $3,720,000 during 2017, $3,540,000 during 2018, $1,560,000 during 2019 and $390,000 during 2020. </FONT></P>

Subsequent expenditures for conversions and major improvements are also capitalized when they appreciably extend the life, increase the earning capacity or improve the efficiency or safety of the vessels, or otherwise are charged to expenses as incurred. The Company records all identified tangible and intangible assets associated with the acquisition of a vessel or liabilities at fair value. Where vessels are acquired with existing time charters, the Company allocates the purchase price to the time charters based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the acquired charters) of the difference between (i)&amp;nbsp;the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the charter terms and (ii)&amp;nbsp;management&amp;#x2019;s estimate of the fair market charter rate, measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the charter. The capitalized above-market (assets) and below-market (liabilities) charters are amortized as a reduction and increase, respectively, to revenues over the remaining term of the charter.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</gass:VesselAcquisitionsPolicyTextBlock>

The Company designates its derivatives based upon guidance on ASC &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;815,&lt;/div&gt; &amp;#x201c;Derivatives and Hedging&amp;#x201d; which establishes accounting and reporting requirements for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. The guidance on accounting for certain derivative instruments and certain hedging activities requires all derivative instruments to be recorded on the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;!-- Field: Page; Sequence: 10 --&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 24.45pt"&gt;(i) &lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;Hedge Accounting&lt;/div&gt;: At the inception of a hedge relationship, the Company formally designates and documents the hedge relationship to which the Company wishes to apply hedge accounting and the risk management objective and strategy undertaken for the hedge. The documentation includes identification of the hedging instrument, hedged item or transaction, the nature of the risk being hedged and how the entity will assess the hedging instrument&amp;#x2019;s effectiveness in offsetting exposure to changes in the hedged item&amp;#x2019;s cash flows attributable to the hedged risk. Such hedges are expected to be highly effective in achieving offsetting changes in cash flows and are assessed on an ongoing basis to determine whether they actually have been highly effective throughout the financial reporting periods for which they were designated.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 24.45pt"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 24.45pt"&gt;Contracts which meet the strict criteria for hedge accounting are accounted for as cash flow hedges. A cash flow hedge is a hedge of the exposure to variability in cash flows that is attributable to a particular risk associated with a recognized asset or liability, or a highly probable forecasted transaction that could affect profit or loss.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 24.45pt"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 24.45pt"&gt;The effective portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument is recognized directly as a component of &amp;#x201c;Accumulated other comprehensive income/loss&amp;#x201d; in equity, while any ineffective portion, if any, is recognized immediately in current period earnings.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 24.45pt"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 24.45pt"&gt;The Company discontinues cash flow hedge accounting if the hedging instrument expires and it no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting or designation is revoked by the Company. At that time, any cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument recognized in equity is kept in equity until the forecasted transaction occurs. When the forecasted transaction occurs, any cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument is recognized in the statement of income. If a hedged transaction is no longer expected to occur, the net cumulative gain or loss recognized in equity is transferred to net profit or loss for the year as a component of &amp;#x201c;Loss on derivatives&amp;#x201d;.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 24.45pt"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 24.45pt"&gt;(ii) &lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;Other Derivatives&lt;/div&gt;: Changes in the fair value of derivative instruments that have not been designated as hedging instruments are reported in current period earnings.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:DerivativesPolicyTextBlock>

The Company limits its credit risk with respect to accounts receivable by performing ongoing credit evaluations of its customers&amp;#x2019; financial condition and generally does not require collateral for its trade accounts receivable. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents, time deposits and other investments with high credit quality financial institutions. The Company performs periodic evaluations of the relative credit standing of those financial institutions. The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of non-performance by its counterparties to derivative instruments; however, the Company limits its exposure by transacting with counterparties with high credit ratings. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, receivables from related party, trade and other receivables, claims receivable, payable to related party, trade accounts payable and accrued liabilities are reasonable estimates of their fair value due to the short term nature of these financial instruments. Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash are considered Level &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;1&lt;/div&gt; items as they represent liquid assets with short-term maturities. The fair value of long term bank loans is estimated based on current rates offered to the Company for similar debt of the same remaining maturities. Their carrying value approximates their fair market value due to their variable interest rate, being LIBOR. LIBOR rates are observable at commonly quoted intervals for the full terms of the loans and hence floating rate loans are considered Level &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2&lt;/div&gt; items in accordance with the fair value hierarchy. Additionally, the Company considers the creditworthiness of each counterparty when determining the fair value of the derivative instruments. The Company&amp;#x2019;s interest rate swap agreements are recorded at fair value. The fair value of the interest rate swaps is determined using a discounted cash flow method based on market-based LIBOR swap yield curves. LIBOR swap rates are observable at commonly quoted intervals for the full terms of the swap and therefore are considered Level &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2&lt;/div&gt; items.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Fair Value Disclosures:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;The Company has categorized assets and liabilities recorded at fair value based upon the fair value hierarchy specified by the guidance. The levels of fair value hierarchy are as follows:&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt;

If indicators of impairment are present, the Company performs an analysis of the anticipated undiscounted future net cash flows of the related long-lived assets.&amp;nbsp;If the carrying value of the related asset exceeds the undiscounted cash flows, the carrying value is reduced to its fair value and the difference is recorded as an impairment loss in the consolidated statements of operations.&amp;nbsp;Various factors including anticipated future charter rates, estimated scrap values, future dry-docking costs and estimated vessel operating costs are included in this analysis. These factors are based on historical trends as well as future expectations. Undiscounted cashflows are determined by considering the revenues from existing charters for those vessels that have long term employment and when there is no charter in place the estimates based on historical average rates with an annual increase of &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;1%.&lt;/div&gt; The Company also assumes an average annual inflation rate of &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;1.50%&lt;/div&gt; for operating expenses.

Among other things, in order to qualify for this exemption, the Company operating the ships must be incorporated in a country which grants an equivalent exemption from income taxes to U.S.&amp;nbsp;corporations. All the Company&amp;#x2019;s ship-operating subsidiaries satisfy these initial criteria. In addition, these companies must be more than &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;50%&lt;/div&gt; owned by individuals who are residents, as defined, in the country of incorporation or another foreign country that grants an equivalent exemption to U.S.&amp;nbsp;corporations.

According to this ASU an entity should measure inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value.

The standard amends the existing accounting standards for lease accounting and adds additional disclosures about leasing arrangements. The ASU requires lessees to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by most leases, while lessor accounting remains largely unchanged. The new leases standard requires a modified retrospective transition approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after, the date of initial application, with an option to use certain transition relief. This update is effective for public entities with reporting periods beginning after &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; December&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;15,&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2018.&lt;/div&gt; Early adoption is permitted for all entities.

As it relates to derivative instruments, novation refers to replacing &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;one&lt;/div&gt; of the parties to a derivative instrument with a new party, which &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; may&lt;/div&gt; occur for a variety of reasons such as: financial institution mergers, intercompany transactions, an entity exiting a particular derivatives business or relationship, or because of laws or regulatory requirements. The amendments clarify that a change in the counterparty to a derivative instrument that has been designated as the hedging instrument under the guidance for Derivatives and Hedging (Topic &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;815)&lt;/div&gt; does not, in and of itself, require dedesignation of that hedge accounting relationship provided that all other hedge accounting criteria continue to be met. The amendments are effective for public entities for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; December&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;15,&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2016,&lt;/div&gt; and interim periods within those fiscal years.

This ASU addresses certain cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice. This update is effective for public entities with reporting periods beginning after &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; December&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;15,&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2017,&lt;/div&gt; including interim periods within those years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. It must be applied retrospectively to all periods presented but &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; may&lt;/div&gt; be applied prospectively from the earliest date practicable, if retrospective application would be impracticable. Management believes that the implementation of this update will not have any material impact on its financial statements and has not elected early adoption.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;In &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; November&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2016&lt;/div&gt; the FASB issued the ASU &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2016&lt;/div&gt;-&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;18&lt;/div&gt; &amp;#x2013; Restricted cash. This ASU requires that a statement of cash flows explains the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning of period and end of period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. This update is effective for public entities with reporting periods beginning after &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; December&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;15,&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2017,&lt;/div&gt; including interim periods within those years.

Under current implementation guidance the existence of an integrated set of acquired activities (inputs and processes that generate outputs) constitutes an acquisition of business. This ASU provides a screen to determine when a set of assets and activities does not constitute a business. The screen requires that when substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, the set is not a business. This update is effective for public entities with reporting periods beginning after &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; December&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;15,&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2017,&lt;/div&gt; including interim periods within those years. The amendments of this ASU should be applied prospectively on or after the effective date. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;1)&lt;/div&gt; for transactions for which the acquisition date occurs before the issuance date or effective date of the ASU, only when the transaction has not been reported in financial statements that have been issued or made available for issuance and &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2)&lt;/div&gt; for transactions in which a subsidiary is deconsolidated or a group of assets is derecognized that occur before the issuance date or effective date of the amendments, only when the transaction has not been reported in financial statements that have been issued or made available for issuance. . The Company does not believe that the adoption of ASU &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2017&lt;/div&gt;-&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;01&lt;/div&gt; will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:NewAccountingPronouncementsPolicyPolicyTextBlock>

Vessels are chartered using either voyage charters, where a contract is made in the spot market for the use of a vessel for a specific voyage for a specified charter rate, or time and bareboat charters, where a contract is entered into for the use of a vessel for a specific period of time and a specified daily or monthly charter hire rate payable monthly in advance. If a charter agreement exists and the price is fixed, service is provided and collection of the related revenue is reasonably assured, revenue is recognized as it is earned ratably on a straight-line basis over the duration of the period of each voyage or period charter. A voyage is deemed to commence upon the completion of discharge of the vessel&amp;#x2019;s previous cargo and is deemed to end upon the completion of discharge of the current cargo, but the Company does not begin recognizing revenue until a charter has been agreed to by the customer and the Company, even if the vessel has discharged its cargo and is sailing to the anticipated load port for its next voyage. Demurrage income represents payments by a charterer to a vessel owner when loading or discharging time exceeds the stipulated time in the voyage charter and is recognized ratably as earned during the related voyage charter&amp;#x2019;s duration period. Deferred income includes cash received prior to the balance sheet date and is related to revenue earned after such date.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;Voyage expenses comprise commissions, bunkers and port expenses and are unique to a particular charter. Commissions in all cases are paid by the Company and are recognized on a pro-rata basis. All other voyage expenses are paid by the charterer under time charter arrangements or by the Company under voyage charter arrangements and are recognized as incurred.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;Vessel operating expenses comprise all expenses relating to the operation of the vessel, including crewing, repairs and maintenance, insurance, stores, lubricants and miscellaneous expenses. Vessel operating expenses are paid by the Company and are accounted for on an accrual basis.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;Under a bareboat charter, the charterer assumes responsibility for all voyage and vessel operating expenses, dry-docking expenses and risk of operation.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:RevenueRecognitionPolicyTextBlock>

Actual results could differ from those estimates.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Other Comprehensive Income/(Loss):&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;The Company follows the provisions of guidance regarding reporting comprehensive income which requires separate presentation of certain transactions, such as unrealized gains and losses from effective portion of cash flow hedges, which are recorded directly as components of stockholders&amp;#x2019; equity.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Foreign Currency Translation:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;The functional currency of the Company is the U.S.&amp;nbsp;Dollar because the Company&amp;#x2019;s vessels operate in international shipping markets, which utilize the U.S.&amp;nbsp;Dollar as the functional currency. The accounting books of the Company are maintained in U.S.&amp;nbsp;Dollars. Transactions involving other currencies during the year are converted into U.S.&amp;nbsp;Dollars using the exchange rates in effect at the time of the transactions. At the balance sheet dates, monetary assets and liabilities, which are denominated in other currencies, are translated to reflect the period end exchange rates. Resulting gains or losses are separately reflected in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Cash and Cash Equivalents:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;The Company considers highly liquid investments such as time deposits and certificates of deposit with original maturity of &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;three&lt;/div&gt; months or less to be cash equivalents.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Restricted Cash:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Restricted cash mainly reflects deposits with certain banks that can only be used to pay the current loan installments or which are required to be maintained as a certain minimum cash balance per mortgaged vessel or cash held in restricted bank account for guarantees issued by the bank on the Company&amp;#x2019;s behalf. In the event that the obligation relating to such deposits is expected to be terminated within the next &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;twelve&lt;/div&gt; months, these deposits are classified as current assets; otherwise they are classified as non-current assets.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Trade Receivables:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;The amount shown as trade receivables includes estimated recoveries from charterers for hire, freight and demurrage billings, net of allowance for doubtful accounts. At each balance sheet date, all potentially un-collectible accounts are assessed individually for purposes of determining the appropriate provision for doubtful accounts. No provision for doubtful accounts was required for any of the periods presented.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Claims Receivable:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;Claims receivable are recorded on the accrual basis and represent the claimable expenses, net of deductibles, incurred through each balance sheet date, for which recovery from insurance companies is probable and claim is not subject to litigation. Any remaining costs to complete the claims are included in accrued liabilities.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;!-- Field: Page; Sequence: 8 --&gt;     &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Inventories:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;Inventories consist of bunkers (for vessels under voyage charter) and lubricants. The cost is determined by the &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;first&lt;/div&gt;-in, &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;first&lt;/div&gt;-out method. The Company considers victualling and stores as being consumed when purchased and, therefore, such costs are expensed when incurred.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Advances for vessels under construction:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; This represents amounts expended by the Company in accordance with the terms of the construction contracts for vessels as well as other expenses in connection with on site supervision. In addition, interest costs incurred during the construction (until the asset is substantially complete and ready for its intended use) are capitalized.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Vessels Acquisitions:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;Vessels are stated at cost, which consists of the contract price less discounts and any material expenses incurred upon acquisition (initial repairs, improvements, acquisition and expenditures made to prepare the vessel for its initial voyage). Subsequent expenditures for conversions and major improvements are also capitalized when they appreciably extend the life, increase the earning capacity or improve the efficiency or safety of the vessels, or otherwise are charged to expenses as incurred. The Company records all identified tangible and intangible assets associated with the acquisition of a vessel or liabilities at fair value. Where vessels are acquired with existing time charters, the Company allocates the purchase price to the time charters based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the acquired charters) of the difference between (i)&amp;nbsp;the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the charter terms and (ii)&amp;nbsp;management&amp;#x2019;s estimate of the fair market charter rate, measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the charter. The capitalized above-market (assets) and below-market (liabilities) charters are amortized as a reduction and increase, respectively, to revenues over the remaining term of the charter.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;The Company follows the Accounting Standards Codification (&amp;#x201c;ASC&amp;#x201d;) Subtopic &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;360&lt;/div&gt;-&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;10,&lt;/div&gt; &amp;#x201c;Property, Plant and Equipment&amp;#x201d; (&amp;#x201c;ASC &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;360&lt;/div&gt;-&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;10&amp;#x201d;),&lt;/div&gt; which requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than their carrying amounts. If indicators of impairment are present, the Company performs an analysis of the anticipated undiscounted future net cash flows of the related long-lived assets.&amp;nbsp;If the carrying value of the related asset exceeds the undiscounted cash flows, the carrying value is reduced to its fair value and the difference is recorded as an impairment loss in the consolidated statements of operations.&amp;nbsp;Various factors including anticipated future charter rates, estimated scrap values, future dry-docking costs and estimated vessel operating costs are included in this analysis. These factors are based on historical trends as well as future expectations. Undiscounted cashflows are determined by considering the revenues from existing charters for those vessels that have long term employment and when there is no charter in place the estimates based on historical average rates with an annual increase of &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;1%.&lt;/div&gt; The Company also assumes an average annual inflation rate of &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;1.50%&lt;/div&gt; for operating expenses. An impairment loss was identified and recorded for the years ended &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; December&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;31,&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2014,&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2015&lt;/div&gt; and &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2016&lt;/div&gt; (Note &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;6).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Vessels&amp;#x2019; Depreciation:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;The cost of each of the Company&amp;#x2019;s vessels is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the vessel&amp;#x2019;s remaining economic useful life, after considering the estimated residual value. Management estimates the useful life of each of the Company&amp;#x2019;s LPG carriers to be &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;30&lt;/div&gt; years and product and aframax tankers, to be &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;25&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;years, from the date of their construction.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 30pt"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Assets Held for Sale:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;It is the Company&amp;#x2019;s policy to dispose of vessels when suitable opportunities occur and not necessarily to keep them until the end of their useful life. The Company classifies vessels as being held for sale when the following criteria are met: (i)&amp;nbsp;management possessing the necessary authority has committed to a plan to sell the vessels, (ii)&amp;nbsp;the vessels are available for immediate sale in their present condition, (iii)&amp;nbsp;an active program to find a buyer and other actions required to complete the plan to sell the vessels have been initiated, (iv)&amp;nbsp;the sale of the vessels is probable, and transfer of the asset is expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;one&lt;/div&gt; year and (v)&amp;nbsp;the vessels are being actively marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable in relation to their current fair value and actions required to complete the plan indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be made or that the plan will be withdrawn. Vessels classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. These vessels are not depreciated once they meet the criteria to be classified as held for sale. Furthermore, in the period a vessel meets the held for sale criteria in accordance with ASC &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;360&lt;/div&gt;-&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;10,&lt;/div&gt; a loss is recognized for any reduction of the vessel&amp;#x2019;s carrying amount to its fair value less cost to sell. Concerning assets held for sale as of &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; December&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;31,&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2015,&lt;/div&gt; refer to Note &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;6.&lt;/div&gt; No assets were held for sale as of &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; December&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;31,&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2016.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 30pt"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Segment Reporting:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;The Company reports financial information and evaluates its operations by total charter revenues and not by the type of vessel, length of vessel employment, customer or type of charter. As a result, management, including the chief operating decision maker, reviews operating results solely by revenue per day and operating results of the fleet, and thus, the Company has determined that it operates under &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;one&lt;/div&gt; reportable segment as well as &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;one&lt;/div&gt; operating segment. Furthermore, when the Company charters a vessel to a charterer, the charterer is free to trade the vessel worldwide and, as a result, the disclosure of geographical information is impracticable.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Accounting for Special Survey and Dry-docking Costs:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;Special survey and dry-docking costs and all non-capitalizable repair and maintenance expenses are expensed in the period incurred.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Deferred Finance Charges:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;Fees incurred for obtaining new loans or refinancing existing &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;ones&lt;/div&gt; are deferred and amortized to interest expense over the life of the related debt using the effective interest method. The unamortized deferred financing charges are presented as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related loan and credit facility in the consolidated balance sheet. Unamortized fees relating to loans repaid or refinanced are expensed in the period the repayment or refinancing is made.

Vessels are chartered using either voyage charters, where a contract is made in the spot market for the use of a vessel for a specific voyage for a specified charter rate, or time and bareboat charters, where a contract is entered into for the use of a vessel for a specific period of time and a specified daily or monthly charter hire rate payable monthly in advance. If a charter agreement exists and the price is fixed, service is provided and collection of the related revenue is reasonably assured, revenue is recognized as it is earned ratably on a straight-line basis over the duration of the period of each voyage or period charter. A voyage is deemed to commence upon the completion of discharge of the vessel&amp;#x2019;s previous cargo and is deemed to end upon the completion of discharge of the current cargo, but the Company does not begin recognizing revenue until a charter has been agreed to by the customer and the Company, even if the vessel has discharged its cargo and is sailing to the anticipated load port for its next voyage. Demurrage income represents payments by a charterer to a vessel owner when loading or discharging time exceeds the stipulated time in the voyage charter and is recognized ratably as earned during the related voyage charter&amp;#x2019;s duration period. Deferred income includes cash received prior to the balance sheet date and is related to revenue earned after such date.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;Voyage expenses comprise commissions, bunkers and port expenses and are unique to a particular charter. Commissions in all cases are paid by the Company and are recognized on a pro-rata basis. All other voyage expenses are paid by the charterer under time charter arrangements or by the Company under voyage charter arrangements and are recognized as incurred.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;Vessel operating expenses comprise all expenses relating to the operation of the vessel, including crewing, repairs and maintenance, insurance, stores, lubricants and miscellaneous expenses. Vessel operating expenses are paid by the Company and are accounted for on an accrual basis.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;Under a bareboat charter, the charterer assumes responsibility for all voyage and vessel operating expenses, dry-docking expenses and risk of operation.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Leasing:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;Leases are classified as capital leases if they meet at least &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;one&lt;/div&gt; of the following criteria: (i) the leased asset automatically transfers title at the end of the lease term; (ii) the lease contains a bargain purchase option; (iii) the lease term equals or exceeds &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;75%&lt;/div&gt; of the remaining estimated economic life of the leased asset; (iv) or the present value of the minimum lease payments equals or exceeds &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;90%&lt;/div&gt; of the excess of fair value of the leased property. If none of the above criteria is met, the lease is accounted for as an operating lease. Operating lease payments are recognized as an operating expense in the consolidated statement of operations on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For sale and lease back transactions, when the lease qualifies as an operating lease and the lease back is considered &amp;#x201c;more than minor but less than substantially all&amp;#x201d; i.e. the seller-lessee retains more than a minor part but less than substantially all of the use of the asset, the resulting gains are deferred and amortized to income over the lease period.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Equity Compensation Plan:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;Share-based compensation includes vested and non-vested shares granted to employees and to non-employee directors, for their services as directors and is included in General and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. These shares are measured at their fair value, which is equal to the market value of the Company&amp;#x2019;s common stock on the grant date. The shares that do not contain any future service vesting conditions are considered vested shares and a total fair value of such shares is recognized in full on the grant date. The shares that contain a time-based service vesting condition are considered non-vested shares on the grant date and a total fair value of such shares is recognized over the vesting period on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for each separate portion of the award as if the award was, in substance, multiple awards (graded vesting attribution method). In addition, non-vested awards granted to non-employees are measured at their then-current fair value as of the financial reporting dates until non-employees complete the service (Note&amp;nbsp;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;14).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Earnings/(Loss) per Share:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;Basic earnings per share are computed under the &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;two&lt;/div&gt;-class method by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;Dilution is computed by either the treasury stock method or the &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;two&amp;#x2013;class&lt;/div&gt; method, whichever results in the more dilutive effect. Under the treasury stock method, all of the Company&amp;#x2019;s dilutive securities are assumed to be exercised or converted and the proceeds used to repurchase common shares at the weighted average market price of the Company&amp;#x2019;s common stock during the relevant periods. The incremental shares (the difference between the number of shares assumed issued and the number of shares assumed purchased) are included in the denominator of the diluted earnings per share computation to the extent these are not anti-dilutive (Note&amp;nbsp;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;15).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Derivatives&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;:&amp;nbsp;The Company is party to interest swap agreements where it receives a floating interest rate and pays a fixed interest rate for a certain period in exchange. The Company designates its derivatives based upon guidance on ASC &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;815,&lt;/div&gt; &amp;#x201c;Derivatives and Hedging&amp;#x201d; which establishes accounting and reporting requirements for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. The guidance on accounting for certain derivative instruments and certain hedging activities requires all derivative instruments to be recorded on the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;!-- Field: Page; Sequence: 10 --&gt;     &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 24.45pt"&gt;(i) &lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;Hedge Accounting&lt;/div&gt;: At the inception of a hedge relationship, the Company formally designates and documents the hedge relationship to which the Company wishes to apply hedge accounting and the risk management objective and strategy undertaken for the hedge. The documentation includes identification of the hedging instrument, hedged item or transaction, the nature of the risk being hedged and how the entity will assess the hedging instrument&amp;#x2019;s effectiveness in offsetting exposure to changes in the hedged item&amp;#x2019;s cash flows attributable to the hedged risk. Such hedges are expected to be highly effective in achieving offsetting changes in cash flows and are assessed on an ongoing basis to determine whether they actually have been highly effective throughout the financial reporting periods for which they were designated.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 24.45pt"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 24.45pt"&gt;Contracts which meet the strict criteria for hedge accounting are accounted for as cash flow hedges. A cash flow hedge is a hedge of the exposure to variability in cash flows that is attributable to a particular risk associated with a recognized asset or liability, or a highly probable forecasted transaction that could affect profit or loss.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 24.45pt"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 24.45pt"&gt;The effective portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument is recognized directly as a component of &amp;#x201c;Accumulated other comprehensive income/loss&amp;#x201d; in equity, while any ineffective portion, if any, is recognized immediately in current period earnings.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 24.45pt"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 24.45pt"&gt;The Company discontinues cash flow hedge accounting if the hedging instrument expires and it no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting or designation is revoked by the Company. At that time, any cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument recognized in equity is kept in equity until the forecasted transaction occurs. When the forecasted transaction occurs, any cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument is recognized in the statement of income. If a hedged transaction is no longer expected to occur, the net cumulative gain or loss recognized in equity is transferred to net profit or loss for the year as a component of &amp;#x201c;Loss on derivatives&amp;#x201d;.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 24.45pt"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 24.45pt"&gt;(ii) &lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;Other Derivatives&lt;/div&gt;: Changes in the fair value of derivative instruments that have not been designated as hedging instruments are reported in current period earnings.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 24.45pt"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.45pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;"&gt;Recent Accounting Pronouncements&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;:&amp;nbsp;On &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; May&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;28,&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2014,&lt;/div&gt; the Financial Accounting Standards Board (&amp;#x201c;FASB&amp;#x201d;) issued Accounting Standard Update (&amp;#x201c;ASU&amp;#x201d;) No &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2014&lt;/div&gt;-&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;09&lt;/div&gt; as amended by ASU &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2015&lt;/div&gt;-&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;14&lt;/div&gt; which was issued on &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; August&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;12,&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2015,&lt;/div&gt; Revenue From Contracts With Customers, which outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance.

According to this ASU an entity should measure inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value.

The standard amends the existing accounting standards for lease accounting and adds additional disclosures about leasing arrangements. The ASU requires lessees to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by most leases, while lessor accounting remains largely unchanged. The new leases standard requires a modified retrospective transition approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after, the date of initial application, with an option to use certain transition relief. This update is effective for public entities with reporting periods beginning after &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; December&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;15,&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2018.&lt;/div&gt; Early adoption is permitted for all entities. The Company has not yet evaluated the impact, if any, of the adoption of this new standard.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;In &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; March&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2016,&lt;/div&gt; the FASB issued amendments concerning the effect of derivative contract novations on existing hedge accounting relationships. As it relates to derivative instruments, novation refers to replacing &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;one&lt;/div&gt; of the parties to a derivative instrument with a new party, which &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; may&lt;/div&gt; occur for a variety of reasons such as: financial institution mergers, intercompany transactions, an entity exiting a particular derivatives business or relationship, or because of laws or regulatory requirements. The amendments clarify that a change in the counterparty to a derivative instrument that has been designated as the hedging instrument under the guidance for Derivatives and Hedging (Topic &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;815)&lt;/div&gt; does not, in and of itself, require dedesignation of that hedge accounting relationship provided that all other hedge accounting criteria continue to be met. The amendments are effective for public entities for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; December&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;15,&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2016,&lt;/div&gt; and interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; may&lt;/div&gt; be applied on either a prospective basis or a modified retrospective basis and early application is permitted.

This ASU requires that a statement of cash flows explains the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning of period and end of period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. This update is effective for public entities with reporting periods beginning after &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; December&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;15,&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2017,&lt;/div&gt; including interim periods within those years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The implementation of this update affects disclosures only and has no impact on the Company&amp;#x2019;s balance sheet and statement of comprehensive income/(loss). Management has not elected early adoption.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"&gt;In &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; January&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2017,&lt;/div&gt; the Financial Accounting Standards Board (&amp;#x201c;FASB&amp;#x201d;) issued the Accounting Standard Update (&amp;#x201c;ASU&amp;#x201d;) &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2017&lt;/div&gt;-&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;01&lt;/div&gt; Business Combinations to clarify the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisition (or disposals) of assets or businesses. Under current implementation guidance the existence of an integrated set of acquired activities (inputs and processes that generate outputs) constitutes an acquisition of business. This ASU provides a screen to determine when a set of assets and activities does not constitute a business. The screen requires that when substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, the set is not a business. This update is effective for public entities with reporting periods beginning after &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt; December&lt;/div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;15,&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2017,&lt;/div&gt; including interim periods within those years. The amendments of this ASU should be applied prospectively on or after the effective date. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;1)&lt;/div&gt; for transactions for which the acquisition date occurs before the issuance date or effective date of the ASU, only when the transaction has not been reported in financial statements that have been issued or made available for issuance and &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2)&lt;/div&gt; for transactions in which a subsidiary is deconsolidated or a group of assets is derecognized that occur before the issuance date or effective date of the amendments, only when the transaction has not been reported in financial statements that have been issued or made available for issuance. . The Company does not believe that the adoption of ASU &lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;2017&lt;/div&gt;-&lt;div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;"&gt;01&lt;/div&gt; will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:SignificantAccountingPoliciesTextBlock>

If a charter agreement exists and the price is fixed, service is provided and collection of the related revenue is reasonably assured, revenue is recognized as it is earned ratably on a straight-line basis over the duration of the period of each voyage or period charter. A voyage is deemed to commence upon the completion of discharge of the vessel&#x2019;s previous cargo and is deemed to end upon the completion of discharge of the current cargo, but the Company does not begin recognizing revenue until a charter has been agreed to by the customer and the Company, even if the vessel has discharged its cargo and is sailing to the anticipated load port for its next voyage. Demurrage income represents payments by a charterer to a vessel owner when loading or discharging time exceeds the stipulated time in the voyage charter and is recognized ratably as earned during the related voyage charter&#x2019;s duration period.

The Company limits its credit risk with respect to accounts receivable by performing ongoing credit evaluations of its customers&#x2019; financial condition and generally does not require collateral for its trade accounts receivable. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents, time deposits and other investments with high credit quality financial institutions. The Company performs periodic evaluations of the relative credit standing of those financial institutions. The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of non-performance by its counterparties to derivative instruments; however, the Company limits its exposure by transacting with counterparties with high credit ratings. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, receivables from related party, trade and other receivables, claims receivable, payable to related party, trade accounts payable and accrued liabilities are reasonable estimates of their fair value due to the short term nature of these financial instruments. Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash are considered Level <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">1</div> items as they represent liquid assets with short-term maturities. The fair value of long term bank loans is estimated based on current rates offered to the Company for similar debt of the same remaining maturities. Their carrying value approximates their fair market value due to their variable interest rate, being LIBOR. LIBOR rates are observable at commonly quoted intervals for the full terms of the loans and hence floating rate loans are considered Level <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">2</div> items in accordance with the fair value hierarchy. Additionally, the Company considers the creditworthiness of each counterparty when determining the fair value of the derivative instruments. The Company&#x2019;s interest rate swap agreements are recorded at fair value. The fair value of the interest rate swaps is determined using a discounted cash flow method based on market-based LIBOR swap yield curves. LIBOR swap rates are observable at commonly quoted intervals for the full terms of the swap and therefore are considered Level <div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">2</div> items.</div> <div style=" font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</div> <div style=" font-size: 10pt; text-indent: 24.5pt; margin: 0pt 0"><div style="display: inline; font-weight: bold;"><div style="display: inline; font-style: italic;">Fair Value Disclosures:</div></div>&nbsp;The Company has categorized assets and liabilities recorded at fair value based upon the fair value hierarchy specified by the guidance.

In addition, non-vested awards granted to non-employees are measured at their then-current fair value as of the financial reporting dates until non-employees complete the service (Note&nbsp;<div style="display: inline; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; font-style: normal;">14).</div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><span></span>
