Future minimum operating lease payments:

The Company's future minimum operating lease payments required to be made after June 30, 2021, relating to the bareboat chartered-in vessels M/T Eco Bel Air and M/T Eco Beverly Hills are as follows:

Year ending December 31,	Bareboat charter lease payments
2021 (remainder)		6,097
2022		12,084
2023		10,220
2024		10,038
2025		6,777

Less imputed interest		(6,751	)
Total Lease Liability		38,465

Presented as follows:
Short-term lease liability		9,601
Long-term lease liability		28,864

The weighted average remaining lease term on our chartered-in contracts greater than 12 months is 53.2 months. The bareboat chartered -in vessels generated revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021 amounting to $8,871. The discount rate used to calculate the present value of lease payments was calculated by taking into account the original lease term and lease payments and was estimated to be 6.72% (same as the weighted average discount rate), which was the Company’s estimated incremental borrowing rate, at the inception of the lease, that reflects the interest the Company would have to pay to borrow funds on a collateralized basis over a similar term and similar economic environment. The cash paid for operating leases with original terms greater than 12 months was $6,064 for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

In arriving at the minimum future charter revenues, an estimated 20 days off-hire time to perform scheduled dry-docking in the year the drydocking is expected on each vessel has been deducted, and it has been assumed that no additional off-hire time is incurred, although there is no assurance that such estimate will be reflective of the actual off-hire in the future.
