Forward Looking Statement

     Matters discussed in this release may constitute forward-looking
statements. Forward-looking statements reflect our current views with respect to
future events and financial performance and may include statements concerning
plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events or performance, and
underlying assumptions and other statements, which are other than statements of
historical facts.

     The forward-looking statements in this release are based upon various
assumptions, many of which are based, in turn, upon further assumptions,
including without limitation, management's examination of historical operating
trends, data contained in our records and other data available from third
parties. Although TOP Tankers believes that these assumptions were reasonable
when made, because these assumptions are inherently subject to significant
uncertainties and contingencies which are difficult or impossible to predict and
are beyond our control, TOP Tankers cannot assure you that it will achieve or
accomplish these expectations, beliefs or projections.

     Important factors that, in our view, could cause actual results to differ
materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements include the
strength of world economies and currencies, general market conditions, including
changes in charterhire rates and vessel values, changes in demand for oil and
petroleum products, the effect of changes in OPEC's petroleum production levels
and worldwide oil consumption and storage, changes in demand that may affect
attitudes of time charterers to scheduled and unscheduled drydocking, changes in
TOP Tankers' operating expenses, including bunker prices, dry-docking and
insurance costs, changes in governmental rules and regulations including
requirements for double-hull tankers or actions taken by regulatory authorities,
potential liability from pending or future litigation, domestic and
international political conditions, potential disruption of shipping routes due
to accidents and political events or acts by terrorists.

     Risks and uncertainties are further described in reports filed by TOP
Tankers with the US Securities and Exchange Commission.
