(i) at any time, that such Lender shall incur increased costs or reductions in the amounts received or receivable hereunder with respect to any Loan because of, without duplication, any change since the Restatement Effective Date in any applicable law or governmental rule, regulation, order, guideline or request (whether or not having the force of law) or in the interpretation or administration thereof and including the introduction of any new law or governmental rule, regulation, order, guideline or request, such as, for example, but not limited to:  (A) a change with respect to taxes (other than Excluded Taxes) imposed on any recipient Lender’s loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto, but without duplication of any amounts payable in respect of Taxes pursuant to Section 4.04, or (B) any change in official reserve requirements but, in all events, excluding reserves required under Regulation D to the extent included in the computation of the Eurodollar Rate; or

(ii) at any time, that the making or continuance of any Loan has been made unlawful by any law or governmental rule, regulation or order;

then, and in any such event, such Lender shall promptly give notice (by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrower and, except in the case of clause (i) above, to the Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the Lenders).  Thereafter (x) in the case of clause (i) above, the Borrower agrees, subject to the provisions of Section 2.11 (to the extent applicable), to pay to such Lender, upon its written demand therefor, such additional amounts as shall be required to compensate such Lender or such other corporation for the increased costs or reductions to such Lender or such other corporation and (y) in the case of clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall take one of the actions specified in Section 2.09(b) as promptly as possible and, in any event, within the time period required by law.  In determining such additional amounts, each Lender will act reasonably and in good faith and will use averaging and attribution methods which are reasonable, provided that such Lender’s determination of compensation owing under this Section 2.09(a) shall, absent manifest error be final and conclusive and binding on all the parties hereto.  Each Lender, upon determining that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 2.09(a), will give prompt written notice thereof to the Borrower, which notice shall show in reasonable detail the basis for the calculation of such additional amounts; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not relieve the Borrower from its Obligations hereunder.

(b) At any time that any Loan is affected by the circumstances described in Section 2.09(a)(i) or (ii), the Borrower may (and in the case of a Loan affected by the

43

circumstances described in Section 2.09(a)(ii) shall) either (x) if the affected Loan is then being made initially, cancel the respective Borrowing by giving the Administrative Agent telephonic notice (confirmed in writing) on the same date or the next Business Day that such Borrower was notified by the affected Lender or the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.09(a)(i) or (ii) or (y) if the affected Loan is then outstanding, upon at least three Business Days’ written notice to the Administrative Agent, in the case of any Loan, repay all outstanding Borrowings (within the time period required by the applicable law or governmental rule, governmental regulation or governmental order) which include such affected Loans in full in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 4.02; provided that if more than one Lender is affected at any time, then all affected Lenders must be treated the same pursuant to this Section 2.09(b).

(c) If any Lender in good faith determines that after the Restatement Effective Date the introduction of or effectiveness of or any change in any applicable law or governmental rule, regulation, order, guideline, directive or request (whether or not having the force of law) concerning capital adequacy, or any change in interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency will have the effect of increasing the amount of capital required or requested to be maintained by such Lender, or any corporation controlling such Lender, based on the existence of such Lender’s Loans hereunder or its obligations hereunder, then the Borrower agrees (to the extent applicable), to pay to such Lender, upon its written demand therefor, such additional amounts as shall be required to compensate such Lender or such other corporation for the increased cost to such Lender or such other corporation or the reduction in the rate of return to such Lender or such other corporation as a result of such increase of capital.  In determining such additional amounts, each Lender will act reasonably and in good faith and will use averaging and attribution methods which are reasonable, provided that such Lender’s determination of compensation owing under this Section 2.09(c) shall, absent manifest error be final and conclusive and binding on all the parties hereto.  Each Lender, upon determining that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 2.09(c), will give prompt written notice thereof to the Borrower, which notice shall show in reasonable detail the basis for calculation of such additional amounts; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not relieve the Borrower from its Obligations hereunder.

(d) If a Market Disruption Event occurs in relation to a Loan for any Interest Period, then the rate of interest on each Lender’s share of such Loan for the relevant Interest Period shall be the rate per annum which is the sum of:

(i) the Applicable Margin; and

(ii) the rate determined by each Lender and notified to the Administrative Agent, which expresses the actual cost to each such Lender of funding its participation in that Loan for a period equivalent to such Interest Period from whatever source it may reasonably select.

(e) If a Market Disruption Event occurs and the Administrative Agent or the Borrower so require, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall enter into negotiations (for a period of not more than thirty days) with a view to agreeing a substitute basis for determining the rate of interest.  Any alternative basis agreed pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall, with the prior consent of all the Lenders and the Borrower, be binding

44

on all parties.  If no agreement is reached pursuant to this clause (e), the rate provided for in clause (d) above shall apply for the entire Interest Period.

2.11  Change of Lending Office.  Each Lender agrees that on the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.09(a)(ii), Section 2.09(b) or Section 4.04 with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable good faith efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans affected by such event, provided that such designation is made on such terms that such Lender and its lending office suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, with the object of avoiding the consequence of the event giving rise to the operation of such Section.  Nothing in this Section 2.11 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the rights of any Lender provided in Section 2.09 or Section 4.04.

50

any confidential information (including, without limitation, its tax returns or its calculations).  If a payment made to a Lender under any Credit Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.

Each non-U.S. Lender hereby agrees, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders any of the forms, certificates or other evidence delivered pursuant to this Section 4.04(b) obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, that such Lender shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly (1) update such form, certificate or other evidence delivered, or (2) notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower of its inability to do so.

(c) If the Borrower pays any additional amount under this Section 4.04 to a Lender and such Lender determines in its sole discretion exercised in good faith that it has actually received or realized in connection therewith any refund or any reduction of, or credit against, its Tax liabilities in or with respect to the taxable year in which the additional amount is paid (a “Tax Benefit”), such Lender shall pay to the Borrower an amount that such Lender shall, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, determine is equal to the net benefit, after tax, which was obtained by such Lender in such year as a consequence of such Tax Benefit; provided, however, that (i) any Lender may determine, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith consistent with the policies of such Lender, whether to seek a Tax Benefit, (ii) any Taxes that are imposed on a Lender as a result of a disallowance or reduction (including through the expiration of any tax credit carryover or carryback of such Lender that otherwise would not have expired) of any Tax Benefit with respect to which such Lender has made a payment to the Borrower pursuant to this Section 4.04(c) shall be treated as a Tax for which the Borrower is obligated to indemnify such Lender pursuant to this Section 4.04 without any exclusions or defenses, (iii) nothing in this Section 4.04(c) shall require any Lender to disclose any confidential information to the Borrower (including, without limitation, its tax returns), and (iv) no Lender shall be required to pay any amounts pursuant to this Section 4.04(c) at any time during which a Default or Event of Default exists.

7.05  Financial Statements; Financial Condition; Undisclosed Liabilities.  (a)  (i) The audited consolidated balance sheets of the Parent as at December 31, 2011 and the related consolidated statements of operations and of cash flows for the fiscal year ended on such date and (ii) to the extent available, the consolidated balance sheets of the Parent as at the end of each quarterly accounting period in the 2012 fiscal year and the related consolidated statements of operations and cash flows, in each case for such quarterly accounting period, reported on by and accompanied by, in the case of the annual financial statements, an unqualified report from Deloitte & Touche LLP, present fairly the consolidated financial condition of the Parent as at such date, and the consolidated results of its operations and its consolidated cash flows for the respective fiscal years then ended.  All such financial statements, including the related schedules and notes thereto, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied consistently throughout the periods involved (except as approved by the aforementioned firm of accountants and disclosed therein).  Neither the Parent nor any of its Subsidiaries has any material guarantee obligations, contingent liabilities and liabilities for taxes, or any long-term leases or unusual forward or long-term commitments, including any interest rate or foreign currency swap or exchange transaction or other obligation in respect of derivatives, that are not reflected in the financial statements referred to in the preceding sentence (it being understood that with respect to guarantee obligations, the underlying debt is so reflected).

(b) Except as fully disclosed in the financial statements and the notes related thereto delivered pursuant to Section 7.05(a), there were as of the Restatement Effective Date no liabilities or obligations with respect to the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries of any nature whatsoever (whether absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise and whether or not due) which, either individually or in the aggregate, would be materially adverse to the Parent and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole.  As of the Restatement Effective Date, none of the Credit Parties knows of any basis for the assertion against it of any liability or obligation of any nature that is not fairly disclosed (including, without limitation, as to the amount thereof) in the financial statements and the notes related thereto delivered pursuant to Section 7.05(a) which, either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to be materially adverse to the Parent and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole.

(c) The Projections delivered by the Parent to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders prior to the Restatement Effective Date have been prepared in good faith and are based on GAAP and reasonable assumptions, and there are no statements or conclusions in such Projections which are based upon or include information known to the Parent on the Restatement Effective Date to be misleading in any material respect or which fail to take into account material information known to the Parent on the Restatement Effective Date regarding the matters reported therein.  On the Restatement Effective Date, the Parent believes that such Projections are reasonable and attainable, it being recognized by the Lenders, however, that projections as to future events are not to be viewed as facts and that the actual results during the period or periods covered by the Projections may differ from the projected results included in such Projections.

53

7.06  Litigation.  Except as set forth on Schedule XIV, there are no actions, suits, investigations (conducted by any governmental or other regulatory body of competent jurisdiction) or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of the Parent, GMSC, Arlington or the Borrower, threatened against the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

7.07  True and Complete Disclosure.  All factual information (taken individually or as a whole) furnished by or on behalf of the Parent, GMSC, Arlington or the Borrower in writing to the Administrative Agent or any Lender (including, without limitation, all information contained in the Documents and any financial statement referred to in Section 7.05(a)) for purposes of or in connection with this Agreement, the other Credit Documents or any transaction contemplated herein or therein is, and all other such factual information (taken individually or as a whole) hereafter furnished by or on behalf of the Parent, GMSC, Arlington or the Borrower in writing to the Administrative Agent or any Lender will be, true and accurate in all material respects and not incomplete by omitting to state any fact necessary to make such information (taken as a whole) not misleading in any material respect at such time as such information was provided.

7.09  Tax Returns and Payments.  The Parent and each of its Subsidiaries has timely filed all U.S. federal income tax returns, statements, forms and reports for taxes and all other material U.S. and non-U.S. tax returns, statements, forms and reports for taxes required to be filed by or with respect to the income, properties or operations of the Parent and/or any of its Subsidiaries (the “Returns”).  The Returns accurately reflect in all material respects all liability for taxes of the Parent and its Subsidiaries as a whole for the periods covered thereby.  The Parent and each of its Subsidiaries have at all times paid, or have provided adequate reserves (in accordance with GAAP) for the payment of, all taxes shown as due on the Returns and all other material U.S. federal, state and non-U.S. taxes that have become due and payable.  There is no material action, suit, proceeding, investigation, audit, or claim now pending or, to the knowledge of the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, threatened by any authority regarding any taxes relating to the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries.  As of the Restatement Effective Date, neither the Parent nor any of its Subsidiaries has entered into an agreement or waiver or been requested to enter into an agreement or waiver extending any statute of limitations relating to the payment or collection of taxes of the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, or is aware of any circumstances that would cause the taxable years or other taxable periods of the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries not to be subject to the normally applicable statute of limitations.  Neither the Parent nor any of its

54

Subsidiaries (i) has engaged in any “listed transaction” within the meaning of Section 6011 of the Code or (ii) has any actual or potential liability for the taxes of any Person (other than the Parent or any of its present or former Subsidiaries) under the United States Treasury regulation Section 1.1502-6 (or any similar provision of state, local, foreign or provincial law).

55

Part 6 of subtitle B of Title I of ERISA and Section 4980B of the Code; no lien imposed under the Code or ERISA on the assets of the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or any ERISA Affiliate exists nor has any event occurred which could reasonably be expected to give rise to any such lien on account of any Plan; and the Parent and its Subsidiaries do not maintain or contribute to any employee welfare plan (as defined in Section 3(1) of ERISA) which provides benefits to retired employees or other former employees (other than as required by Section 601 of ERISA) or any Plan the obligations with respect to which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

11.03  Lack of Reliance on the Agents.   Independently and without reliance upon the Agents, each Lender and the holder of each Note, to the extent it deems appropriate, has made and shall continue to make (i) its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Parent and its Subsidiaries in connection with the making and the continuance of the Loans and the taking or not taking of any action in connection herewith and (ii) its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Parent and its Subsidiaries and, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, none of the Agents shall have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender or the holder of any Note with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the Loans or at any time or times thereafter.  None of the Agents shall be responsible to any Lender or the holder of any Note for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties herein or in any document, certificate or other writing delivered in connection herewith or for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, perfection, collectibility, priority or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Credit Document or the financial condition of the Parent and its Subsidiaries or be required to make any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, or the financial condition of the Parent and its Subsidiaries or the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default.

11.04  Certain Rights of the Agents.   If any of the Agents shall request instructions from the Required Lenders with respect to any act or action (including failure to act) in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document, the Agents shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action unless and until the Agents shall have received instructions from the Required Lenders; and the Agents shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining.  Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender or the holder of any Note shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Agents as a result of any of the Agents acting or refraining from acting hereunder or under any other Credit Document in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders.

11.05  Reliance.   Each of the Agents shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, statement, certificate, telex, teletype or telecopier message, cablegram, radiogram, order or other document or telephone message signed, sent or made by any Person that the applicable Agent believed to be the proper Person, and, with respect to all legal matters pertaining to this Agreement and any other Credit Document and its duties hereunder and thereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by the Administrative Agent.

11.06  Indemnification.   To the extent any of the Agents is not reimbursed and indemnified by the Borrower, the Lenders will reimburse and indemnify the applicable Agents, in proportion to their respective “percentages” as used in determining the Required Lenders (without regard to the existence of any Defaulting Lenders), for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, costs, expenses or disbursements of whatsoever kind or nature which may be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by such Agents in performing their respective duties hereunder or under any other Credit Document, in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Credit Document; provided that no Lender shall be liable in respect to an Agent for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

11.07  The Administrative Agent in its Individual Capacity.   With respect to its obligation to make Loans under this Agreement, each of the Agents shall have the rights and powers specified herein for a “Lender” and may exercise the same rights and powers as though it were not performing the duties specified herein; and the term “Lenders,” “Secured Creditors”, “Required Lenders”, “holders of Notes” or any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include each of the Agents in their respective individual capacity.  Each of the Agents may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with any Credit Party or any Affiliate of any Credit Party as if it were not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration from the Borrower or any other Credit Party for services in connection with this Agreement and otherwise without having to account for the same to the Lenders.

11.08  Holders.   The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until a written notice of the assignment, transfer or endorsement thereof, as the case may be, shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent.  Any request, authority or consent of any Person who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is the holder of any Note shall be

94

conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, transferee, assignee or endorsee, as the case may be, of such Note or of any Note or Notes issued in exchange therefor.

11.09  Resignation by the Administrative Agent.   (a)  The Administrative Agent may resign from the performance of all its functions and duties hereunder and/or under the other Credit Documents at any time by giving 15 Business Days’ prior written notice to the Borrower and the Lenders.  Such resignation shall take effect upon the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent pursuant to clauses (b) and (c) below or as otherwise provided below.

(b) Upon any such notice of resignation by the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders shall appoint a successor Administrative Agent hereunder or thereunder who shall be a commercial bank or trust company that is, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at such time, reasonably acceptable to the Borrower.

(c) If a successor Administrative Agent shall not have been so appointed within such 15 Business Day period, the Administrative Agent, with the consent of the Borrower (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and shall not be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at such time), shall then appoint a commercial bank or trust company with capital and surplus of not less than $500,000,000 as successor Administrative Agent (which successor Administrative Agent shall be a Lender hereunder if any such Lender agrees to serve as Administrative Agent at such time) who shall serve as Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided above.

(d) If no successor Administrative Agent has been appointed pursuant to clause (b) or (c) above by the 25th Business Day after the date such notice of resignation was given by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent’s resignation shall become effective and the Required Lenders shall thereafter perform all the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder and/or under any other Credit Document until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided above.

11.10  The Joint Lead Arrangers.   Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any provision of any other Credit Document, each of the Joint Lead Arrangers are named as such for recognition purposes only, and in their respective capacities as such shall have no powers, duties, responsibilities or liabilities with respect to this Agreement or the other Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby; it being understood and agreed that the Joint Lead Arrangers shall be entitled to all indemnification and reimbursement rights in favor of any of the Agents as provided for under Sections 11.06 and 12.01.  Without limitation of the foregoing, none of the Joint Lead Arrangers shall, solely by reason of this Agreement or any other Credit Documents, have any fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender or any other Person.

11.11  Collateral Matters.   (a)  Each Lender authorizes and directs the Collateral Agent to enter into the Security Documents for the benefit of the Lenders and the other Secured Creditors.  Each Lender hereby agrees, and each holder of any Note by the acceptance thereof will be deemed to agree, that, except as otherwise set forth herein, any action taken by the Required Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or the Security

95

Documents, and the exercise by the Required Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders.  The Collateral Agent is hereby authorized on behalf of all of the Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender, from time to time prior to an Event of Default, to take any action with respect to any Collateral or Security Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the security interest in and liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the Security Documents.

(b) The Lenders hereby authorize the Collateral Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by the Collateral Agent upon any Collateral (i) upon payment and satisfaction of all of the Obligations (other than inchoate indemnification obligations) at any time arising under or in respect of this Agreement or the Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) constituting property being sold or otherwise disposed of (to Persons other than the Borrower and its Subsidiaries) upon the sale or other disposition thereof in compliance with Section 9.02, (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders (or all of the Lenders hereunder, to the extent required by Section 12.12), (iv) as otherwise may be expressly provided in the relevant Security Documents or (v) as otherwise provided in Section 12.21 hereof.  Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 11.11.

(c) The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to the Lenders or to any other Person to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by any Credit Party or is cared for, protected or insured or that the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent herein or pursuant hereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise or to continue exercising at all or in any manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to the Collateral Agent in this Section 11.11 or in any of the Security Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, the Collateral Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, given the Collateral Agent’s own interest in the Collateral as one of the Lenders and that the Collateral Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to the Lenders, except for its gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision).

11.12  Delivery of Information.   The Administrative Agent shall not be required to deliver to any Lender originals or copies of any documents, instruments, notices, communications or other information received by the Administrative Agent from any Credit Party, any Subsidiary, the Required Lenders, any Lender or any other Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document except (i) as specifically provided in this Agreement or any other Credit Document and (ii) as specifically requested from time to time in writing by any Lender with respect to a specific document, instrument, notice or other written communication received by and in the possession of the Administrative Agent at the time of receipt of such request and then only in accordance with such specific request.

96

SECTION 12.  Miscellaneous.

12.01  Payment of Expenses, etc.  The Borrower agrees that it shall:  (i) whether or not the transactions herein contemplated are consummated, pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of each of the Agents (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of White & Case LLP, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx & Xxxxxxxx, other counsel to the Administrative Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers and local counsel) in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and the documents and instruments referred to herein and therein and any amendment, waiver or consent relating hereto or thereto, of the Agents in connection with their respective syndication efforts with respect to this Agreement and of the Agents and each of the Lenders in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and the documents and instruments referred to herein and therein (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel (including in-house counsel) for each of the Agents and for each of the Lenders); (ii) pay and hold each of the Lenders harmless from and against any and all present and future stamp, documentary, transfer, sales and use, value added, excise and other similar taxes with respect to the foregoing matters and save each of the Lenders harmless from and against any and all liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay or omission (other than to the extent attributable to such Lender) to pay such taxes; and (iii) indemnify the Agents, the Collateral Agent and each Lender, and each of their respective officers, directors, trustees, employees, representatives and agents from and hold each of them harmless against any and all liabilities, obligations (including removal or remedial actions), losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements (including reasonable attorneys’ and consultants’ fees and disbursements) incurred by, imposed on or assessed against any of them as a result of, or arising out of, or in any way related to, or by reason of, (a) any investigation, litigation or other proceeding (whether or not any of the Agents, the Collateral Agent or any Lender is a party thereto) related to the entering into and/or performance of this Agreement or any other Credit Document or the proceeds of any Loans hereunder or the consummation of any transactions contemplated herein, or in any other Credit Document or the exercise of any of their rights or remedies provided herein or in the other Credit Documents, or (b) the actual or alleged presence of Hazardous Materials on any Collateral Vessel or in the air, surface water or groundwater or on the surface or subsurface of any property at any time owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, the generation, storage, transportation, handling, disposal or Environmental Release of Hazardous Materials at any location, whether or not owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, the non-compliance of any Collateral Vessel or property with foreign, federal, state and local laws, regulations, and ordinances (including applicable permits thereunder) applicable to any Collateral Vessel or property, or any Environmental Claim asserted against the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any Collateral Vessel or property at any time owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, including, in each case, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and other consultants incurred in connection with any such investigation, litigation or other proceeding (but excluding any losses, liabilities, claims, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, disbursements or expenses to the extent incurred by reason of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Person to be indemnified).  To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay or hold harmless each of the Agents or any Lender set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it violates any law or public policy, the

97

Borrower shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the indemnified liabilities which is permissible under applicable law.

12.02  Right of Setoff.   In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law or otherwise, and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Lender is hereby authorized at any time or from time to time, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind to any Credit Party or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Lender (including, without limitation, by branches and agencies of such Lender wherever located) to or for the credit or the account of any Credit Party but in any event excluding assets held in trust for any such Person against and on account of the Obligations and liabilities of such Credit Party, to such Lender under this Agreement or under any of the other Credit Documents, including, without limitation, all interests in Obligations purchased by such Lender pursuant to Section 12.06(b), and all other claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected with this Agreement or any other Credit Document, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand hereunder and although said Obligations, liabilities or claims, or any of them, shall be contingent or unmatured.

12.03  Notices.   Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including telexed, telecopier or e-mail communication) and mailed, telexed, telecopied or delivered:  if to any Credit Party, at the address specified under its signature below; if to any Lender, at its address specified opposite its name on Schedule II; and if to the Administrative Agent, at its Notice Office; or, as to any other Credit Party, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other parties hereto and, as to each Lender, at such other address as shall be designated by such Lender in a written notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.  All such notices and communications shall, (i) when mailed, be effective three Business Days after being deposited in the mails, prepaid and properly addressed for delivery, (ii) when sent by overnight courier, be effective one Business Day after delivery to the overnight courier prepaid and properly addressed for delivery on such next Business Day, or (iii) when sent by telex, telecopier or e-mail, be effective when sent by telex, telecopier or e-mail except that notices and communications to the Administrative Agent shall not be effective until received by the Administrative Agent.

12.04  Benefit of Agreement.   (a)  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto; provided, however, that (i) no Credit Party may assign or transfer any of its rights, obligations or interest hereunder or under any other Credit Document without the prior written consent of the Lenders, (ii) although any Lender may transfer, assign or grant participations in its rights hereunder, such Lender shall remain a “Lender” for all purposes hereunder (and may not transfer or assign all or any portion of its Loans hereunder except as provided in Section 12.04(b)) and the transferee, assignee or participant, as the case may be, shall not constitute a “Lender” hereunder and (iii) no Lender shall transfer or grant any participation under which the participant shall have rights to approve any amendment to or waiver of this Agreement or any other Credit Document except to the extent such amendment or waiver would (x) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan or Note in which such participant is participating, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest thereon (except (m) in connection with a waiver of

98

applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates and (n) that any amendment or modification to the financial definitions in this Agreement shall not constitute a reduction in the rate of interest for purposes of this clause (x)) or reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase the amount of the participant’s participation over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default shall not constitute a change in the terms of such participation, and that an increase in any Loan shall be permitted without the consent of any participant if the participant’s participation is not increased as a result thereof), (y) consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or (z) release all or substantially all of the Collateral under all of the Security Documents (except as expressly provided in the Credit Documents) securing the Loans hereunder in which such participant is participating.  In the case of any such participation, the participant shall not have any rights under this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents (the participant’s rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by such Lender in favor of the participant relating thereto) and all amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Lender (or any Lender together with one or more other Lenders) may (x) assign all or a portion of its outstanding Loans to its (i) (A) parent company and/or any affiliate of such Lender which is at least 50% owned by such Lender or its parent company or (B) to one or more other Lenders or any Affiliate of any such other Lender which is at least 50% owned by such other Lender or its parent company (provided that any fund that invests in bank loans and is managed or advised by the same investment advisor of another fund which is a Lender (or by an Affiliate of such investment advisor) shall be treated as an Affiliate of such other Lender for the purposes of this sub-clause (x)(i)(B)), provided that no such assignment may be made to any such Person that is, or would at such time constitute, a Defaulting Lender, or (ii) in the case of any Lender that is a fund that invests in bank loans, any other fund that invests in bank loans and is managed or advised by the same investment advisor of such Lender or by an Affiliate of such investment advisor or (iii) to one or more Lenders or (y) assign with the consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and shall not be required if any Event of Default is then in existence, provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five Business Days after having received notice thereof) all, or if less than all, a portion equal to at least $20,000,000 in the aggregate for the assigning Lender or assigning Lenders, of such Lender’s outstanding principal amount of Loans hereunder to one or more Eligible Transferees (treating any fund that invests in bank loans and any other fund that invests in bank loans and is managed or advised by the same investment advisor of such fund or by an Affiliate of such investment advisor as a single Eligible Transferee), each of which assignees shall become a party to this Agreement as a Lender by execution of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, provided that (i) at such time Schedule I shall be deemed modified to reflect the outstanding Loans of such new Lender and of the existing Lenders, (ii) new Notes will be issued, at the Borrower’s expense, to such new Lender and to the assigning Lender upon the request of such new Lender or assigning Lender, such new Notes to be in conformity with the requirements of Section 2.05 (with appropriate modifications) to the extent needed to reflect the revised outstanding Loans, (iii) the consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required in connection with any assignment pursuant to preceding clause (y) (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and (iv) the

99

Administrative Agent shall receive at the time of each such assignment, from the assigning or assignee Lender, the payment of a non-refundable assignment fee of $3,500.  To the extent of any assignment pursuant to this Section 12.04(b), the assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder with respect to its assigned Loans (it being understood that the indemnification provisions under this Agreement (including, without limitation, Sections 2.09, 2.10, 4.04, 12.01 and 12.06) shall survive as to such assigning Lender).  To the extent that an assignment of all or any portion of a Lender’s Loans and related outstanding Obligations pursuant to Section 2.12 or this Section 12.04(b) would, at the time of such assignment, result in increased costs under Section 2.09, 2.10 or 4.04 from those being charged by the respective assigning Lender prior to such assignment, then the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay such increased costs (although the Borrower shall be obligated to pay any other increased costs of the type described above resulting from changes after the date of the respective assignment).

(c) Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or prohibit any Lender from pledging its Loans and Notes hereunder to a Federal Reserve Bank or any central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender in support of borrowings made by such Lender from such Federal Reserve Bank or central bank and, with the consent of the Administrative Agent, any Lender which is a fund may pledge all or any portion of its Notes or Loans to a trustee for the benefit of investors and in support of its obligation to such investors; provided, however, no such pledge shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledge for such Lender as a party hereto.

(d) Oaktree Capital Management, L.P. and any Affiliate thereof (each an “Affiliated Lender”) may purchase Loans hereunder, whether by assignment or participation, subject to the following requirements:

(i) no Loans may be assigned, or participations sold, to an Affiliated Lender if, after giving effect to such assignment, the Affiliated Lenders in the aggregate would own (as a Lender or through a participation) in excess of 30% of all Loans then outstanding under this Agreement;

(ii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the definition of “Required Lenders”, or in Section 12.12, for purposes of determining whether the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders hereunder have or any affected Lender hereunder has (i) consented (or not consented) to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to any of the terms of any Credit Document or any departure therefrom by the Credit Parties, (ii) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Credit Document or (iii) directed or required the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender under the Credit Documents to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any such Credit Document, the Loans held by any Affiliated Lender shall be deemed to be not outstanding for all purposes of calculating whether the Required Lenders, all of the Lenders have or any affected Lender has taken any action or voted on any matter (other than any vote that has a disproportionate effect on the Loans held by an Affiliated Lender relative to the Loans held by Lenders that are Affiliated Lenders);

100

(iii) the Affiliated Lenders shall be prohibited from being appointed as, or succeeding to the rights and duties of, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents until such time (if any) as when all Obligations (other than those held by any Affiliated Lender and other than contingent obligations not then due and owing) have been paid in full in cash;

(iv) by acquiring a Loan, each Affiliated Lender, in its capacity as a Lender, shall be deemed to have (I) waived its right to receive information prepared by the Administrative Agent or any other Lender (or any advisor, agent or counsel thereof) under or in connection with the Credit Documents (to the extent not provided to the Credit Parties), attend any meeting or conference call (or any portion thereof) with the Administrative Agent or any Lender(to the extent that the Credit Parties are excluded from attending), (II) agreed that it is prohibited from making or bringing any claim, in its capacity as a Lender hereunder against the Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect to the duties and obligations of such Persons under the Credit Documents, except any claims that the Administrative Agent or such Lender is treating such Affiliated Lender, in its capacity as a Lender, in a disproportionate manner relative to the other Lenders, and (III) agreed, without limiting its rights as a Lender described in clause (ii) above, that it will have no right whatsoever to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to this Agreement or any other Credit Document other than each Lender’s and Administrative Agent’s duties and obligations hereunder; and

(v) the applicable Affiliated Lender identifies itself as an Affiliated Lender prior to the assignment of Loans to it pursuant to the respective Assignment and Assumption Agreement;

Additionally, the Credit Parties and each Affiliated Lender hereby agree that if a case under Title 11 of the United States Code is commenced against any Credit Party, such Credit Party shall seek (and each Affiliated Lender shall consent) to provide that the vote of any Affiliated Lender (in its capacity as a Lender) with respect to any plan of reorganization of such Credit Party shall not be counted except that such Affiliated Lender’s vote (in its capacity as a Lender) may be counted to the extent any such plan of reorganization proposes to treat the Obligations held by such Affiliated Lender in a manner that is less favorable in any material respect to such Affiliated Lender than the proposed treatment of similar Obligations held by Lenders that are not Affiliates of the Credit Parties.

12.05  No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative.   No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any holder of any Note in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document and no course of dealing between the Borrower or any other Credit Party and the Administrative Agent or any Lender or the holder of any Note shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder.  The rights, powers and remedies herein or in any other Credit Document expressly provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, powers or remedies which the Administrative Agent or any Lender or the holder of any Note would otherwise have.  No notice to or demand on any

101

Credit Party in any case shall entitle any Credit Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender or the holder of any Note to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

12.06  Payments Pro Rata.   (a)  Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent agrees that promptly after its receipt of each payment from or on behalf of the Borrower in respect of any Obligations hereunder, it shall distribute such payment to the Lenders (other than any Lender that has consented in writing to waive its pro rata share of any such payment) pro rata based upon their respective shares, if any, of the Obligations with respect to which such payment was received.

(b) Each of the Lenders agrees that, if it should receive any amount hereunder (whether by voluntary payment, by realization upon security, by the exercise of the right of setoff or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action, by the enforcement of any right under the Credit Documents, or otherwise), which is applicable to the payment of the principal of, or interest on, the Loans, of a sum which with respect to the related sum or sums received by other Lenders is in a greater proportion than the total of such Obligation then owed and due to such Lender bears to the total of such Obligation then owed and due to all of the Lenders immediately prior to such receipt, then such Lender receiving such excess payment shall purchase for cash without recourse or warranty from the other Lenders an interest in the Obligations of the respective Credit Party to such Lenders in such amount as shall result in a proportional participation by all the Lenders in such amount; provided that if all or any portion of such excess amount is thereafter recovered from such Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the provisions of the preceding Sections 12.06(a) and (b) shall be subject to the express provisions of this Agreement which require, or permit, differing payments to be made to Non-Defaulting Lenders as opposed to Defaulting Lenders.

12.07  Calculations; Computations.   (a)  The financial statements to be furnished to the Lenders pursuant hereto shall be made and prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States consistently applied throughout the periods involved (except as set forth in the notes thereto or as otherwise disclosed in writing by the Borrower to the Lenders).  In addition, all determinations of compliance with this Agreement or any other Credit Document shall utilize accounting principles and policies in conformity with those used to prepare the historical financial statements delivered to the Lenders for the first fiscal year of the Borrower ended December 31, 2010 (with the foregoing generally accepted accounting principles, subject to the preceding proviso, herein called “GAAP”).  Unless otherwise noted, all references in this Agreement to GAAP shall mean generally accepted accounting principles as in effect in the United States.

(b) All computations of interest for Loans and fees hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or fees are payable.

(b) The Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that each Lender may share with any of its affiliates any information related to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries

109

(including, without limitation, any nonpublic customer information regarding the creditworthiness of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries), provided such Persons shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 12.15 to the same extent as such Lender.

12.16  Register.   The Borrower hereby designates the Administrative Agent to serve as the Borrower’s agent, solely for purposes of this Section 12.16, to maintain a register (the “Register”) on which it will record the Loans made by each of the Lenders and each repayment and prepayment in respect of the principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans of each Lender.  Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations in respect of such Loans.  The registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of any Loans shall be recorded by the Administrative Agent on the Register only upon the acceptance by the Administrative Agent of a properly executed and delivered Assignment and Assumption Agreement pursuant to Section 12.04(b).  Coincident with the delivery of such an Assignment and Assumption Agreement to the Administrative Agent for acceptance and registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of a Loan, or as soon thereafter as practicable, the assigning or transferor Lender shall surrender the Note evidencing such Loan, and thereupon one or more new Notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the assigning or transferor Lender and/or the new Lender.  The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities of whatsoever nature which may be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by the Administrative Agent in performing its duties under this Section 12.16, except to the extent caused by the Administrative Agent’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal and interest amounts of each participant’s interest in the Loans and the obligations thereunder (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Credit Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.  The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

12.17  Judgment Currency.   If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due from the Borrower hereunder or under any of the Notes in the currency expressed to be payable herein or under the Notes (the “specified currency”) into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the specified currency with such other currency at the Administrative Agent’s New York office on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given.  The obligations of the Borrower in respect of any sum due to any Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any Note shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than the specified currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may

110

be) of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the specified currency with such other currency; if the amount of the specified currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency, the Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, against such loss, and if the amount of the specified currency so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to any Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency, such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, agrees to remit such excess to the Borrower.

12.18  Language.   All correspondence, including, without limitation, all notices, reports and/or certificates, delivered by any Credit Party to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender shall, unless otherwise agreed by the respective recipients thereof, be submitted in the English language or, to the extent the original of such document is not in the English language, such document shall be delivered with a certified English translation thereof.

12.19  Waiver of Immunity.   The Borrower, in respect of itself, each other Credit Party, its and their process agents, and its and their properties and revenues, hereby irrevocably agrees that, to the extent that the Borrower, any other Credit Party or any of its or their properties has or may hereafter acquire any right of immunity from any legal proceedings, whether in the Republic of the Xxxxxxxx Islands, the United Kingdom, the Bahamas, Bermuda, the Republic of Malta, the United States or the Republic of Liberia or any other Acceptable Flag Jurisdiction or elsewhere, to enforce or collect upon the Obligations of the Borrower or any other Credit Party related to or arising from the transactions contemplated by any of the Credit Documents, including, without limitation, immunity from service of process, immunity from jurisdiction or judgment of any court or tribunal, immunity from execution of a judgment, and immunity of any of its property from attachment prior to any entry of judgment, or from attachment in aid of execution upon a judgment, the Borrower, for itself and on behalf of the other Credit Parties, hereby expressly waives, to the fullest extent permissible under applicable law, any such immunity, and agrees not to assert any such right or claim in any such proceeding, whether in the Republic of the Xxxxxxxx Islands, the United Kingdom, the Bahamas, Bermuda, the Republic of Malta, the United States or the Republic of Liberia or elsewhere.

(b) take and hold security for the payment of the Obligations and sell, exchange, release, impair, surrender, realize upon or otherwise deal with in any manner and in any order any property by whomsoever at any time pledged or mortgaged to

113

secure, or howsoever securing, the Obligations or any liabilities (including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and/or any offset thereagainst;

(c) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Borrower, any other Credit Party or others or otherwise act or refrain from acting;

(d) release or substitute any one or more endorsers, guarantors, the Borrower, other Credit Parties or other obligors;

(e) settle or compromise any of the Obligations, any security therefor or any liability (including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and may subordinate the payment of all or any part thereof to the payment of any liability (whether due or not) of the Borrower to its creditors other than the Guaranteed Creditors;

(f) apply any sums by whomsoever paid or howsoever realized to any liability or liabilities of the Borrower to the Guaranteed Creditors regardless of what liability or liabilities of the Borrower remain unpaid;

(g) consent to or waive any breach of, or any act, omission or default under, this Agreement, any other Credit Document, any Interest Rate Protection Agreement or any Other Hedging Agreement or any of the instruments or agreements referred to herein or therein, or, pursuant to the terms of the Credit Documents, otherwise amend, modify or supplement this Agreement, any other Credit Document, any Interest Rate Protection Agreement or any Other Hedging Agreement or any of such other instruments or agreements; and/or

(h) take any other action which would, under otherwise applicable principles of common law, give rise to a legal or equitable discharge of the Parent, Arlington or GMSC from its liabilities under this Holdings Guaranty.

13.06  Reliance.   It is not necessary for any Guaranteed Creditor to inquire into the capacity or powers of each of the Parent, Arlington or GMSC or any of their respective Subsidiaries or the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on their behalf, and any Obligations made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed hereunder.

13.07  Subordination.   Any indebtedness of the Borrower now or hereafter owing to each of the Parent, Arlington and GMSC, as the case may be, is hereby subordinated to the Obligations of the Borrower owing to the Guaranteed Creditors; and if the Administrative Agent so requests at a time when an Event of Default exists, all such indebtedness of the Borrower to each of the Parent, Arlington and GMSC shall be collected, enforced and received by the Parent, Arlington or GMSC, as the case may be, for the benefit of the Guaranteed Creditors and be paid over to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Guaranteed Creditors on account of the Obligations to the Guaranteed Creditors, but without affecting or impairing in any manner the liability of the Parent, Arlington or GMSC under the other provisions of this Holdings Guaranty.  Prior to the transfer by the Parent, Arlington or GMSC of any note or negotiable instrument

114

evidencing any such indebtedness of the Borrower to the Parent, Arlington or GMSC, as the case may be, the Parent, Arlington or GMSC, as the case may be, shall xxxx such note or negotiable instrument with a legend that the same is subject to this subordination.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of the Parent, Arlington and GMSC hereby agrees with the Guaranteed Creditors that they will not exercise any right of subrogation which they may at any time otherwise have as a result of this Holdings Guaranty (whether contractual, under Section 509 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise) until all Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full in cash.  If and to the extent required in order for the Obligations of each of the Parent, Arlington and GMSC to be enforceable under applicable federal, state and other laws relating to the insolvency of debtors, the maximum liability of the Parent, Arlington and GMSC, as the case may be, hereunder shall be limited to the greatest amount which can lawfully be guaranteed by the Parent, Arlington and GMSC, as the case may be, under such laws, after giving effect to any rights of contribution, reimbursement and subrogation arising under this Section 13.07.

13.08  Waiver.   (a)  Each of the Parent, Arlington and GMSC waives any right (except as shall be required by applicable law and cannot be waived) to require any Guaranteed Creditor to (i) proceed against the Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from the Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party or (iii) pursue any other remedy in any Guaranteed Creditor’s power whatsoever.  Each of the Parent, Arlington and GMSC hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now or hereafter have in any way relating to any and all of the following: (a) based on or arising out of any defense of the Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party, other than payment in full in cash of the Obligations, based on or arising out of the disability of the Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party, or the validity, legality or unenforceability of the Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of the Borrower other than payment in full in cash of the Obligations; (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from any Credit Document; (c) any taking, exchange, release or nonperfection of any Collateral, or any taking, release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from the Holdings Guaranty or any other guaranty, for all or any of the Obligations; (d) any law or regulation of any foreign jurisdiction or any other event affecting any term of a Obligation; and (e) any other circumstance (including, without limitation, any statute of limitations or any existence of or reliance on any representation by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party) that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, such Guarantor, any other Credit Party or any other guarantor or surety other than payment in full in cash of the Obligations.  The Guaranteed Creditors may, at their election, foreclose on any security held by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Guaranteed Creditor by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, whether or not every aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable (to the extent such sale is permitted by applicable law), or exercise any other right or remedy the Guaranteed Creditors may have against the Borrower, or any other party, or any security, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of either the Parent, Arlington or GMSC hereunder except to the extent the Obligations have been paid in cash.  Each of the Parent, Arlington and GMSC waives any defense arising out of any such election by the Guaranteed Creditors, even though such election operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of the Parent, Arlington or GMSC against the Borrower or any other party or any security.

115

(b) Each of the Parent, Arlington and GMSC waives all presentments, demands for performance, protests and notices, including, without limitation, notices of nonperformance, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of this Holdings Guaranty, and notices of the existence, creation or incurring of new or additional Obligations.  Each of the Parent, Arlington and GMSC assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the Borrower’s financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks which each of the Parent, Arlington and GMSC assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of the other Guaranteed Creditors shall have any duty to advise either the Parent, Arlington or GMSC of information known to them regarding such circumstances or risks.

13.09  Judgment Shortfall.  (a) The obligations of the Parent, Arlington and GMSC under the Holdings Guaranty to make payments in the respective currency or currencies in which the respective Obligations are required to be paid (such currency being herein called the “Obligation Currency”) shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed in or converted into any currency other than the Obligation Currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery results in the effective receipt by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the respective other Secured Creditor of the full amount of the Obligation Currency expressed to be payable to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such other Secured Creditor under this Holdings Guaranty or the other Credit Documents or any Interest Rate Protection Agreements or any Other Hedging Agreements, as applicable.  If for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against the Parent, Arlington or GMSC in any court or in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into or from any currency other than the Obligation Currency (such other currency being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due in the Obligation Currency, the conversion shall be made, at the rate of exchange (quoted by the Administrative Agent, determined, in each case, as of the date immediately preceding the day on which the judgment is given (such Business Day being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency Conversion Date”).

(b)  If there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Currency Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount due, the Parent, Arlington and GMSC jointly and severally covenant and agree to pay, or cause to be paid, such additional amounts, if any (but in any event not a lesser amount), as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the Obligation Currency which could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial award at the rate or exchange prevailing on the Judgment Currency Conversion Date.

SCHEDULE VI

REQUIRED INSURANCE

Insurance to be maintained on each Collateral Vessel:

(a)  The Parent shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, at the Parent’s expense, keep each Collateral Vessel insured with insurers and protection and indemnity clubs or associations of internationally recognized responsibility, and placed in such markets, on such terms and conditions, and through brokers, in each case reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent (it being understood that Leeds and Leeds, AON and Xxxxx are acceptable) and under forms of policies approved by the Collateral Agent against the risks indicated below and such other risks as the Collateral Agent may specify from time to time:

(i) Marine and war risk, including terrorism, confiscation, piracy, London Blocking and Trapping Addendum and Lost Vessel Clause, hull and machinery insurance, hull interest insurance and freight interest insurance, together in an amount in U.S. dollars at all times equal to, except as otherwise approved or required in writing by the Collateral Agent, the greater of (x) the then Fair Market Value of the Collateral Vessel and (y) an amount which, when aggregated with such insured value of the other Collateral Vessels (if the other Collateral Vessels are then subject to a Collateral Vessel Mortgage or a Secondary Collateral Vessel Mortgage in favor of the Collateral Agent under the Credit Agreement, and have not suffered an Event of Loss) is equal to 120% of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Loans at such time.  The insured values for hull and machinery required under this clause (i) for each Collateral Vessel shall at all times be in an amount equal to the greater of (x) eighty per cent (80%) of the Fair Market Value of the Collateral Vessel and (y) an amount which, when aggregated with such hull and machinery insured value of the other Collateral Vessels (if the other Collateral Vessels are then subject to a Collateral Vessel Mortgage or a Secondary Collateral Vessel Mortgage in favor of the Collateral Agent and have not suffered an Event of Loss), is equal to the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Loans at such time, and the remaining machinery and war risk insurance required by this clause (i) may be taken out as hull and freight interest insurance.

(ii) Marine and war risk protection and indemnity insurance or equivalent insurance (including coverage against liability for crew, fines and penalties arising out of the operation of the Collateral Vessel, insurance against liability arising out of pollution, spillage or leakage, and workmen’s compensation or longshoremen’s and harbor workers’ insurance as shall be required by applicable law) in such amounts approved by the Collateral Agent;  provided, however, that insurance against liability under law or international convention arising out of pollution, spillage or leakage shall be in an amount not less than the greater of:

(y) the maximum amount available, as that amount may from time to time change, from the International Group of Protection and Indemnity Associations (the “International Group”) or alternatively such sources of pollution, spillage or leakage coverage as are commercially available in any

absence of such coverage by the International Group as shall be carried by prudent shipowners for similar vessels engaged in similar trades plus amounts available from customary excess insurers of such risks as excess amounts shall be carried by prudent shipowners for similar vessels engaged in similar trades; and

(z) the amounts required by the laws or regulations of the United States of America or any applicable jurisdiction in which the Collateral Vessel may be trading from time to time.

(iii) While the Collateral Vessel is idle or laid up, at the option of the Parent and in lieu of the above-mentioned marine and war risk hull insurance, port risk insurance insuring the Collateral Vessel against the usual risks encountered by like vessels under similar circumstances.

(b) The Collateral Agent shall, at the Parent’s expense, keep each Collateral Vessel insured with mortgagee’s interest insurance (including extended mortgagee’s interest-additional perils-pollution) on such conditions as the Collateral Agent may reasonably require and mortgagee’s interest insurance for pollution risks as from time to time agreed, in each case satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and in an amount in U.S. dollars which, when aggregated with such insured value of the other Collateral Vessels (if the other Collateral Vessels are then subject to a Collateral Vessel Mortgage or a Secondary Collateral Vessel Mortgage in favor of the Collateral Agent under the Credit Agreement, and have not suffered an Event of Loss), is not less than 120% of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Loans at such time; all such Collateral Agent’s interest insurance cover shall in the Collateral Agent’s discretion be obtained directly by the Collateral Agent and the Parent shall on demand pay all costs of such cover; premium costs shall be reimbursed by the Parent to the Collateral Agent.

(c) The marine and commercial war-risk insurance required in this Schedule VI for each Collateral Vessel shall have deductibles no higher than the following:  (i) Hull and Machinery - U.S. $500,000 (or such other amount as may be agreed to by the Required Lenders) for all hull and machinery claims and each accident or occurrence and (ii) Protection and Indemnity — U.S. $100,000 for collision liabilities, U.S. $50,000 for cargo claims, U.S. $35,000 for crew claims, U.S. $20,000 passenger claims and U.S. $20,000 all other claims, in each case each accident or occurrence.

All insurance maintained hereunder shall be primary insurance without right of contribution against any other insurance maintained by the Collateral Agent.  Each policy of marine and war risk hull and machinery insurance with respect to each Collateral Vessel shall provide that the Collateral Agent shall be a named insured in its capacity as Mortgagee and as a loss payee.  Each entry in a marine and war risk protection indemnity club with respect to each Collateral Vessel shall note the interest of the Collateral Agent.  The Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each of their respective successors and assigns shall not be responsible for any premiums, club calls, assessments or any other obligations or for the representations and warranties made therein by the Parent, any of the Parent’s Subsidiaries or any other person.

(d) The Collateral Agent shall from time to time, and in any event at least annually, obtain a detailed report signed by a firm of marine insurance brokers acceptable to the Collateral Agent with respect to P & I entry, the hull and machinery and war risk insurance carried and maintained on each Collateral Vessel, together with their opinion as to the adequacy thereof and its compliance with the provisions of this Schedule VI.  At the Parent’s expense the Parent will cause its insurance broker (which, for the avoidance of doubt shall be a different insurance broker from the firm of marine insurance brokers referred to in the immediately preceding sentence) and the P & I club or association providing P & I insurance referred to in part (a)(ii) of this Schedule VI, to agree to advise the Collateral Agent by telecopier or electronic mail confirmed by letter of any expiration, termination, alteration or cancellation of any policy, any default in the payment of any premium and of any other act or omission on the part of the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries of which the Parent has knowledge and which might invalidate or render unenforceable, in whole or in part, any insurance on any Collateral Vessel, and to provide an opportunity of paying any such unpaid premium or call, such right being exercisable by the Collateral Agent on a Collateral Vessel on an individual basis and not on a fleet basis.  In addition, the Parent shall promptly provide the Collateral Agent with any information which the Collateral Agent reasonably requests for the purpose of obtaining or preparing any report from the Collateral Agent’s independent marine insurance consultant as to the adequacy of the insurances effected or proposed to be effected in accordance with this Schedule VI as of the date hereof or in connection with any renewal thereof, and the Parent shall upon demand indemnify the Collateral Agent in respect of all reasonable fees and other expenses incurred by or for the account of the Collateral Agent in connection with any such report, provided that the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to such indemnity only for one such report during a period of twelve months.

The underwriters or brokers shall furnish the Collateral Agent with a letter or letters of undertaking to the effect that:

(i) they will hold the instruments of insurance, and the benefit of the insurances thereunder, to the order of the Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms of the loss payable clause referred to in the relevant Assignment of Insurances or Secondary Assignment of Insurances for each Collateral Vessel, as applicable;

(ii) they will have endorsed on each and every policy as and when the same is issued the loss payable clause and the notice of assignment referred to in the relevant Assignment of Insurances or Secondary Assignment of Insurances for each Collateral Vessel, as applicable; and

(iii) they will not set off against any sum recoverable in respect of a claim against any Collateral Vessel under the said underwriters or brokers or any other Person in respect of any other vessel nor cancel the said insurances by reason of non-payment of such premiums or other amounts.

All policies of insurance required hereby shall provide for not less than 14 days prior written notice to be received by the Collateral Agent of the termination or cancellation of the insurance evidenced thereby.  All policies of insurance maintained pursuant to this Schedule VI

3

for risks covered by insurance other than that provided by a P & I Club shall contain provisions waiving underwriters’ rights of subrogation thereunder against any assured named in such policy and any assignee of said assured.  The Parent shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, assign to the Collateral Agent its full rights under any policies of insurance in respect of each Collateral Vessel.  The Parent agrees that it shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, deliver, unless the insurances by their terms provide that they cannot cease (by reason of nonrenewal or otherwise) without the Collateral Agent being informed and having the right to continue the insurance by paying any premiums not paid by the Parent, receipts showing payment of premiums for Required Insurance and also of demands from the Collateral Vessel’s P & I underwriters to the Collateral Agent at least two (2) days before the risk in question commences.

(e) Unless the Collateral Agent shall otherwise agree, all amounts of whatsoever nature payable under any insurance must be payable to the Collateral Agent for distribution first to itself and thereafter to the Parent or others as their interests may appear, provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, until otherwise required by the Collateral Agent by notice to the underwriters upon the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default hereunder, (i) amounts payable under any insurance on each Collateral Vessel with respect to protection and indemnity risks may be paid directly to (x) the Parent to reimburse it for any loss, damage or expense incurred by it and covered by such insurance or (y) the Person to whom any liability covered by such insurance has been incurred provided that the underwriter shall have first received evidence that the liability insured against has been discharged, and (ii) amounts payable under any insurance with respect to each Collateral Vessel involving any damage to each Collateral Vessel not constituting an Event of Loss, may be paid by underwriters directly for the repair, salvage or other charges involved or, if the Parent shall have first fully repaired the damage or paid all of the salvage or other charges, may be paid to the Parent as reimbursement therefor; provided, however, that if such amounts (including any deductible) are in excess of U.S. $2,000,000, the underwriters shall not make such payment without first obtaining the written consent thereto of the Collateral Agent.

(f) All amounts paid to the Collateral Agent in respect of any insurance on the Collateral Vessels shall be disposed of as follows (after deduction of the expenses of the Collateral Agent in collecting such amounts):

(i) any amount which might have been paid at the time, in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (d) above, directly to the Parent or others shall be paid by the Collateral Agent to, or as directed by, the Parent;

(ii) all amounts paid to the Collateral Agent in respect of an Event of Loss of the Collateral Vessel shall be applied by the Collateral Agent to the payment of the Indebtedness hereby secured pursuant to Section 4.02(b) of the Credit Agreement and subject to the Intercreditor Agreements;

(iii) all other amounts paid to the Collateral Agent in respect of any insurance on the Collateral Vessel may, in the Collateral Agent’s sole discretion, be held and applied to the prepayment of the Obligations or to making of needed repairs or other work on the Collateral Vessel, or to the payment of other claims incurred by the Parent or

4

any of its Subsidiaries relating to the Collateral Vessel, or may be paid to the Parent or whosoever may be entitled thereto.

(g) In the event that any claim or lien is asserted against any Collateral Vessel for loss, damage or expense which is covered by insurance required hereunder and it is necessary for the Parent to obtain a bond or supply other security to prevent arrest of such Collateral Vessel or to release the Collateral Vessels from arrest on account of such claim or lien, the Collateral Agent, on request of the Parent, may, in the sole discretion of the Collateral Agent, assign to any Person, firm or corporation executing a surety or guarantee bond or other agreement to save or release the Collateral Vessel from such arrest, all right, title and interest of the Collateral Agent in and to said insurance covering said loss, damage or expense, as collateral security to indemnify against liability under said bond or other agreement.

(h) The Parent shall deliver to the Collateral Agent certified copies and, whenever so requested by the Collateral Agent, the originals of all certificates of entry, cover notes, binders, evidences of insurance and policies and all endorsements and riders amendatory thereof in respect of insurance maintained pursuant to Section 8.03 of the Credit Agreement and this Schedule VI for the purpose of inspection or safekeeping, or, alternatively, satisfactory letters of undertaking from the broker holding the same.  The Collateral Agent shall be under no duty or obligation to verify the adequacy or existence of any such insurance or any such policies, endorsement or riders.

(i) The Parent will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, execute or permit or willingly allow to be done any act by which any insurance may be suspended, impaired or cancelled, and that it will not permit or allow the Collateral Vessels to undertake any voyage or run any risk or transport any cargo which may not be permitted by the policies in force, without having previously notified the Collateral Agent in writing and insured the Collateral Vessels by additional coverage to extend to such voyages, risks, passengers or cargoes.

(j) In case any underwriter proposes to pay less on any claim than the amount thereof, the Parent shall forthwith inform the Collateral Agent, and if a Default, an Event of Default or an Event of Loss has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent shall have the exclusive right to negotiate and agree to any compromise.

(k) The Parent will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, comply with and satisfy all of the provisions of any applicable law, convention, regulation, proclamation or order concerning financial responsibility for liabilities imposed on the Parent, its Subsidiaries or the Collateral Vessels with respect to pollution by any state or nation or political subdivision thereof and will maintain all certificates or other evidence of financial responsibility as may be required by any such law, convention, regulation, proclamation or order with respect to the trade in which the Collateral Vessels are from time to time engaged and the cargo carried by it.

LITIGATION

· On or about August 29, 2007, an oil sheen was discovered by shipboard personnel of the Genmar Progress in Guayanilla Bay, Puerto Rico in the vicinity of the vessel. The vessel crew took prompt action pursuant to the vessel response plan. The Parent’s subsidiary which operates the vessel promptly reported this incident to the U.S. Coast Guard and subsequently accepted responsibility under the U.S. Oil Pollution Act of 1990 for any damage or loss resulting from the accidental discharge of bunker fuel determined to have been discharged from the vessel. The Parent understands the federal and Puerto Rico authorities are conducting civil investigations into an oil pollution incident which occurred during this time period on the southwest coast of Puerto Rico including Guayanilla Bay. The extent to which oil discharged from the Genmar Progress is responsible for this incident is currently the subject of investigation. The U.S. Coast Guard has designated the Genmar Progress as a potential source of discharged oil. Under the U.S. Oil Pollution Act of 1990, the source of the discharge is liable, regardless of fault, for damages and oil spill remediation as a result of the discharge. On January 13, 2009, the Parent received a demand from the U.S. National Pollution Fund for approximately $5.8 million for the U.S. Coast Guard’s response costs and certain costs of the Departamento de Recursos Naturales y Ambientales of Puerto Rico in connection with the alleged damage to the environment caused by the spill. In April 2010, the U.S. National Pollution Fund made an additional natural resource damage assessment claim against the Parent of approximately $0.5 million. In October 2010, the Parent entered into a settlement agreement with the U.S. National Pollution Fund in which the Parent agreed to pay approximately $6.3 million in full satisfaction of the oil spill response costs of the U.S. Coast Guard and natural damage assessment costs of the U.S. National Pollution Fund through the date of the settlement agreement. Pursuant to the settlement agreement, the U.S. National Pollution Fund will waive its claims to any additional civil penalties under the U.S. Clean Water Act as well as for accrued interest. The settlement has been paid in full by the vessel’s protection and indemnity underwriters. Notwithstanding the settlement agreement, the Parent may be subject to any further potential claims by the U.S. National Pollution Fund or the U.S. Coast Guard arising from the ongoing natural resource damage assessment.

· On November 25, 2008, a jury in the Southern District of Texas found General Maritime Management (Portugal) L.D.A., a subsidiary of GMR (“GMM Portugal”), and two vessel officers of the Genmar Defiance guilty of violating the Act to Prevent Pollution from Ships and 18 USC 1001. The conviction resulted from charges based on alleged incidents occurring on board the Genmar Defiance arising from potential failures by shipboard staff to properly record discharges of bilge waste during the period of November 24, 2007 through November 26, 2007. Pursuant to the sentence imposed by the Court on Xxxxx 00, 0000, XXX Xxxxxxxx paid a $1 million fine in April 2009 and is subject to a probationary period of five years. During this period, a court-appointed monitor will monitor and audit GMM Portugal’s compliance with its environmental compliance plan, and GMM Portugal is required to designate a responsible corporate officer to submit monthly reports to, and respond to inquiries from, the court’s probation department. The court stated that, should GMM Portugal engage in future conduct in violation of its probation, it may, under appropriate circumstances, ban certain of the Parent’s vessels from calling on U.S. ports. Any violations of probation may also result in additional penalties, costs or sanctions being imposed on the Parent.

Obligations (as defined in the Pledge Agreement), in such Transaction Party’s collateral therein described (other than (i) the securities of any entity not organized pursuant to the laws of the United States of America, one of the fifty states of the United States of America, or the District of Columbia or (ii) the property of any entity held in a jurisdiction other than the United States of America, one of the fifty states of the United States of America, or the District of Columbia, in each case, as to which we express no opinion in this paragraph) (the “Collateral”) that such Transaction Party has rights in, or the power to transfer rights in, to the Collateral Agent and constitutes property in which a security interest can be granted under Article 9 of the New York UCC (such Collateral is referred to herein as the “Code Collateral”).

5. (a) Under the New York UCC, the perfection of the Collateral Agent’s security interest in the Code Collateral (i) will, as a general matter and except as otherwise provided in Sections 9-301 through 9-307 of the New York UCC, be governed by the local law of the jurisdiction in which the applicable grantor is located (which in the case of (A) a registered organization (as defined in the New York UCC) such as a corporation or a limited liability company that is organized under the laws of a State (as defined in Section 9-102 of the New York UCC) is the State under whose laws such registered organization is organized, (B) an organization that is not a registered organization, is at its place of business if it has only one place of business or at its chief executive office if it has more than one place of business), or (C) an organization that is not a registered organization organized under the laws of the United States or a State thereof and whose chief executive office or place of business, as applicable, is not in a jurisdiction whose law generally requires information concerning the existence of a non-possessory security interest to be made generally available in a filing, recording, or registration system as a condition or result of the security interest’s obtaining priority over the rights of a lien creditor with respect to the collateral, in the District of Columbia), (ii) will, in the case of a possessory security interest, generally be governed by the local law of the jurisdiction in which the collateral is located, (iii) which constitutes certificated securities will be governed by the local law of the jurisdiction in which the security certificates are located (other than perfection by filing, which is governed by the local law of the jurisdiction in which the applicable grantor is located) as specified in Section 9-305(a)(1) of the New York UCC, (iv) that constitutes uncertificated securities will be governed by the local law of the issuer’s jurisdiction as specified in Section 8-110(d) of the New York UCC pursuant to Section 9-305(a)(2) of the New York UCC (other than perfection by filing, which is governed by the local law of the jurisdiction in which the applicable grantor is located), (v) which constitutes deposit accounts will be governed by the local law of the depositary bank’s jurisdiction as specified in Section 9-304 of the New York UCC, (vi), and (vi) which constitutes other categories will be governed by the laws of the

3

jurisdiction or jurisdictions specified in Sections 9-301 through 9-307 of the New York UCC.

(b) Assuming that the chief executive office or place of business, as applicable, of each Transaction Party is located in a jurisdiction whose law does not generally require information concerning the existence of a non-possessory security interest to be made generally available in a filing, recording, or registration system (a matter as to which we express no opinion), (i) under the New York UCC the perfection by filing of the Collateral Agent’s security interest granted by each Transaction Party in Code Collateral is governed by the laws of the District of Columbia (the “Filing Office”), and (ii) when the Financing Statements naming each Transaction Party as debtor are duly filed in the office of the District of Columbia Recorder of Deeds (together with the payment of all filing and recording fees), then the security interests granted to the Collateral Agent by each Transaction Party in the Code Collateral owned by such Transaction Party will be perfected to the extent both (A) such Code Collateral is also described in such Financing Statements (which description for purposes of such Financing Statements may be a generic description such as “all assets” or “all personal property” since the use of such generic description for purposes of the Financing Statements is specifically authorized by the relevant Transaction Party in the Pledge Agreement) and (B) such security interests can be perfected by the filing of Uniform Commercial Code financing statements in the District of Columbia.

6. Upon execution and delivery of each DACA, such DACA is effective to perfect (i) Nordea Bank Finland PLC. New York Branch’s, as “First Priority Agent” and “Second Priority Agent” in the Nordea DACA and (ii) Nordea Bank Finland PLC, New York Branch’s, as “Collateral Agent” in the Pari Passu DACAs, interest in the deposit accounts identified therein (each a “Deposit Account”) under Article 9 of the New York UCC, assuming that (a) each Deposit Account is a “deposit account” as defined in Section 9-102 of the New York UCC and not investment property or an account evidenced by an instrument, (b) for purposes of the New York UCC the jurisdiction of each Deposit Account Bank is the State of New York, (c) each Deposit Account Bank is a “bank” as defined in Article 9 of the New York UCC and (d) each Deposit Account Bank is the depository bank with regard to such account.

Each opinion in this letter is subject to the General Qualifications that are recited in Schedule A to this letter to the extent relevant to such opinion. In preparing this letter, we have relied without any independent verification upon the assumptions recited in Schedule B to this letter and upon: (i) information contained in certificates obtained from governmental authorities; (ii) factual information represented in the Credit Agreement and the Other Transaction Documents to be true; (iii) factual information provided to us in support certificates executed by each Transaction Party; and (iv) factual information we have obtained from such other sources as

4

we have deemed reasonable. We have examined the originals or copies certified to our satisfaction, of such other corporate or limited liability company records, as applicable, of the Transaction Parties as we deem necessary for or relevant to this letter, certificates of public officials and other officers of the Transaction Parties and we have assumed without investigation that there has been no relevant change or development between the dates as of which the information cited in the preceding sentence was given and the date of this letter and that the information upon which we have relied is accurate and does not omit disclosures necessary to prevent such information from being misleading.

While we have not conducted any independent investigation to determine facts upon which our opinions are based or to obtain information about which this letter advises you, we confirm that we do not have any actual knowledge which has caused us to conclude that our reliance and assumptions cited in the preceding paragraph are unwarranted or that any information supplied to us in connection with the preparation of this letter is wrong. The terms “knowledge”, “actual knowledge” and “aware” whenever it is used in this letter with respect to our firm means conscious awareness at the time this letter is delivered on the date it bears by the following Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxx LLP lawyers who have had significant involvement with the negotiation or preparation of the Transaction Documents (herein called our “Designated Transaction Lawyers”): Xxxxxxxx X. Good, Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx and Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx.

Except as set forth in the following sentences of this paragraph, our advice on every legal issue addressed in this letter is based exclusively on the internal law of the State of New York and such Federal law of the United States which, in each case, is in our experience normally applicable to general business entities not engaged in regulated business activities and to transactions of the type contemplated in the Transaction Documents between the Transaction Parties, on the one hand, and you, on the other hand (but without our having made any special investigation as to any other laws), except that we express no opinion or advice as to any law or legal issue (a) which might be violated by any misrepresentation or omission or a fraudulent act, (b) to which any Transaction Party may be subject as a result of your legal or regulatory status, your sale or transfer of the Loans or interests therein or your (as opposed to any other lender’s) involvement in the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, or (c) identified on Schedule C. Our opinions in paragraph 5 with respect to each Transaction Party are based exclusively on our review of the DC UCC, the regulations set forth in Section 5.13 (Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) Article 9 Filings) of Chapter 5 of Title 9 of the Code of the District of Columbia Municipal Regulations (in each case, without regard to judicial interpretation thereof or rules or regulations promulgated thereunder). We have assumed that the statutory provisions of the DC UCC are given the same interpretation by the courts of the District of Columbia as the corresponding provisions of the New York UCC are given by the courts of the State of New York. Furthermore, we expressly disclaim any opinion regarding the contract or general law of any state (other than the State of New York) that may be incorporated by reference into the relevant statutory scheme governing partnerships or limited liability companies in such state, or

5

into any limited liability company agreement, limited partnership agreement or similar governing document (howsoever denominated) entered into pursuant thereto. We advise you that some issues addressed by this letter may be governed in whole or in part by other laws, but we express no opinion as to whether any relevant difference exists between the laws upon which our opinions are based and any other laws which may actually govern. Our opinions are subject to all qualifications in Schedule A and do not cover or otherwise address any law or legal issue which is identified in the attached Schedule C or any provision of the Transaction Documents of any type identified in Schedule D. Provisions in the Transaction Documents which are not excluded by Schedule D or any other part of this letter or its attachments are called the “Relevant Agreement Terms.”

Our advice on each legal issue addressed in this letter represents our opinion as to how that issue would be resolved were it to be considered by the highest court of the jurisdiction upon whose law our opinion on that issue is based. The manner in which any particular issue would be treated in any actual court case would depend in part on facts and circumstances particular to the case, and this letter is not intended to guarantee the outcome of any legal dispute which may arise in the future. It is possible that some Relevant Agreement Terms of a remedial nature contained in the Transaction Documents may not prove enforceable for reasons other than those cited in this letter should an actual enforcement action be brought, but (subject to all the exceptions, qualifications, exclusions and other limitations contained in this letter) such unenforceability would not in our opinion prevent you from realizing the principal benefits purported to be provided by the Relevant Agreement Terms of a remedial nature contained in the Transaction Documents.

This letter speaks as of the time of its delivery on the date it bears. We do not assume any obligation to provide you with any subsequent opinion or advice by reason of any fact about which our Designated Transaction Lawyers did not have actual knowledge at that time, by reason of any change subsequent to that time in any law, other governmental requirement or interpretation thereof covered by any of our opinions, or for any other reason. The attached schedules are an integral part of this letter, and any term defined in this letter or any Schedule has that defined meaning wherever it is used in this letter or in any schedule to this letter.

You may rely upon this letter only for the purpose served by the provisions in the Credit Agreement cited in the initial paragraph of this letter in response to which it has been delivered. Without our written consent: (i) no person other than you may rely on this letter for any purpose; (ii) this letter may not be cited or quoted in any financial statement, prospectus, private placement memorandum or other similar document; (iii) this letter may not be cited or quoted in any other document or communication which might encourage reliance upon this letter by any person or for any purpose excluded by the restrictions in this paragraph; and (iv) copies of this letter may not be furnished to anyone for purposes of encouraging such reliance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, persons who subsequently become Lenders (in accordance with

6

the terms of the Credit Agreement) may rely on this letter as of the time of its delivery on the date hereof as if this letter were addressed to them.

Sincerely,

/s/ Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxx LLP

Re: $273M Credit Agreement

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special New York maritime counsel to each of the limited liability companies listed on Schedule 2 and Schedule 3 (each a “Subsidiary Guarantor” and together the “Subsidiary Guarantors”), organized under the laws of the jurisdictions identified in Schedule 2 and Schedule 3, as applicable, in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of the Security Documents described in paragraphs A through F below required pursuant to a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (the “Credit Agreement”) among General Maritime Corporation, a Xxxxxxxx Islands corporation (the “Parent”‘). General Maritime Subsidiary 11 Corporation, a Xxxxxxxx Islands corporation (“GM Sub II”), as borrower, General Maritime Subsidiary Corporation, a Xxxxxxxx Islands corporation (“GM Sub”), as guarantor, Arlington Tankers Ltd., as guarantor, each of the lenders party thereto from time to time (the “Lenders”), and Nordea Bank Finland plc, New York Branch (“Nordea”), as Administrative Agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”) and Collateral Agent (in such capacity, the “Collateral Agent”) for the Lenders. This opinion is delivered pursuant to Section 12.10(viii) of the Credit Agreement. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Credit Agreement. As used herein the words “Owner” or “Subsidiary Guarantor” will refer to the owner of the respective vessels listed on Schedule 2 or Schedule 3, as applicable.

In rendering this opinion, we have examined executed copies of the following documents (collectively, the “Security Documents”):

A. each Amendment to the First Preferred Ship Mortgage dated the date hereof in favor of the Collateral Agent encumbering each motor vessel duly registered under the laws of the Republic of the Xxxxxxxx Islands (“RMI”) listed in Schedule 2 (“RMI Vessel”) opposite the name of its owner a Subsidiary Guarantor and its RMI Official Number (“RMI Mortgage Amendment,” and together with the RMI Mortgage originally filed, and any subsequent amendments thereto, the “Amended RMI Mortgage”);

1

B. each Amendment to the Second Preferred Ship Mortgage dated the date hereof in favor of the Collateral Agent encumbering each RMI Vessel duly registered under the laws of RMI listed in Schedule 3 opposite the name of its owner a Subsidiary Guarantor and its RMI Official Number (“Second RMI Mortgage Amendment,” and together with the Second RMI Mortgage originally filed, and any subsequent amendments thereto, the “Amended Second RMI Mortgage”);

C. each Amendment to the Second Preferred Ship Mortgage dated the date hereof in favor of the Collateral Agent encumbering each motor vessel duly registered under the laws of the Republic of Liberia (“Liberia” or “Ljberian”) listed in Schedule 3 (“Liberia Vessel”) opposite the name of its owner a Subsidiary Guarantor and its Liberian Official Number (“Second Liberian Mortgage Amendment,” and together with the Second Liberian Mortgage originally filed, and any subsequent amendments thereto, the “Amended Second Liberian Mortgage”);

D. each electronic copy of a Second Priority Statutory Bermuda Ship Mortgage dated the date hereof in favor of the Collateral Agent encumbering each motor vessel duly registered under the laws of Bermuda (“Bermuda”) listed in Schedule 3 (“Bermuda Vessel”) opposite the name of its owner a Subsidiary Guarantor and its Bermuda Official Number (“Second Bermuda Mortgages”);

E. Omnibus Amendment to Assignments of Insurances, dated as of the date hereof (the “Assignments of Insurances Amendment” and, together with the Assignments of Insurances originally filed, the “Assignments of Insurances”), signed by each Subsidiary Guarantor listed on Schedule 2 in favor of the Collateral Agent;

F. Omnibus Amendment to Secondary Assignments of Insurances, dated as of the date hereof (the “Second Assignments of Insurances Amendment” and together with the Second Assignments of Insurances originally filed, the “Second Assignments of Insurances;” and together with the Assignments of Insurances Amendment, the “Assignments Amendments”), signed by each Subsidiary Guarantor listed on Schedule 3 in favor of the Collateral Agent;

G. each electronic copy of a Certificate of Ownership and Encumbrances dated the date hereof issued by the RMI Office of the Maritime Administrator, 000 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, XX (the “RMI Ship Registry Office”) as evidence that the RMI Vessel to which it relates listed in Schedule 2 and Schedule 3 (i) is owned by its respective Owner (Subsidiary Guarantor), (ii) is duly registered in the RMI, and (iii) is duly encumbered with (x) the Amended First RMI Mortgage or the Amended Second RMI Mortgage, as applicable, granted by its Owner in favor of the Collateral Agent, and (y) the mortgage or secondary mortgage (as amended on the date hereof), as applicable, granted by its Owner in favor of the collateral agent under the Other Credit Agreement, each recorded at the RMI Ship Registry Office on the date hereof;

2

H. each electronic copy of a Certificate of Ownership and Encumbrances dated the date hereof issued by the Liberian Bureau of Maritime Affairs, 00 Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, XX (the “Liberian Ship Registry Office”) as evidence that the Liberian Vessel to which it relates listed in Schedule 3 (i) is owned by its respective Owner (Subsidiary Guarantor), (ii) is duly registered in Liberia, and (iii) is duly encumbered with (x) the Amended Second Liberian Mortgage granted by its Owner in favor of the Collateral Agent and (y) the mortgage (as amended on the date hereof) granted by its Owner in favor of the collateral agent under the Other Credit Agreement, each recorded at the Liberian Ship Registry Office on the date hereof.

I. each electronic copy of a Transcript of Register issued by Bermuda Maritime Administration Registrar of Ships, Xxxxxxxx, Bermuda (the “Bermuda Ship Registry Office”) on the date hereof, as evidence that the Bermuda Vessel to which it relates listed in Schedule 3 (i) is owned by its respective Owner (Subsidiary Guarantor), (ii) is duly registered in Bermuda, and (iii) is duly encumbered with (x) the Second Bermuda Mortgage granted by its Owner in favor of the Collateral Agent and (y) the mortgage granted by its Owner in favor of the collateral agent under the Other Credit Agreement, each recorded at the Bermuda Ship Registry Office on the date hereof.

We also have examined such other public and corporate documents and records and such laws, regulations and enactments of the United States of America and the State of New York as deemed necessary or appropriate in connection with this opinion.

In our examination we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures (other than the signatures of the respective officers and directors of Nordea), the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified or photographic reproductions or electronic or pdf copies of such originals and the authenticity of the originals of such copies. As to questions of fact not independently verified by us, we have relied, to the extent we have deemed appropriate, upon certificates of the respective officers, and directors, and managers of Nordea. We have been provided with copies of documents of public officials of the RMI, Liberia and Bermuda, as applicable, and the aforementioned Certificates of Ownership and Encumbrances, and Transcripts of Register, as applicable, each relating to the Vessels, which we assume are authentic and accurate insofar as the information contained therein. We have further assumed that the Credit Agreement was duly signed by Nordea and the Lenders and continues in full, force and effect.

Our opinions contained herein are subject to the following assumptions:

1. All permits, licenses, consents, and approvals of any RMI, Liberian or Bermuda governmental authority which is a condition to the validity and enforceability of the registration of each respective Vessel and each Amended RMI Mortgage, each Second RMI Mortgage, each Second Liberian Mortgage and each Second Bermuda Mortgage (collectively, the “Ship Mortgages”), have been duly obtained, are in full force and effect as of the date thereof and are valid and sufficient for their respective purposes.

2. Each Vessel listed in Schedule 2 and Schedule 3 is duly registered under the laws and flag of the its respective jurisdiction at either the RMI Ship Registry Office, the Liberian Ship Registry

3

Office or the Bermuda Ship Registry Office, as applicable, in the name its respective Owner (Subsidiary Guarantor), and each Vessel is free of any liens, claims, charges, debts or encumbrances of record except for the encumbrances that are reflected on the Security Documents identified in foregoing paragraphs G, H and I delivered to you herewith.

3. The RMI Ship Registry Office, the Liberian Ship Registry Office, and the Bermuda Ship Registry Office are each a “public register at the port of registry of the vessel or at a central office” within the meaning of Title 46 United States Code Section 31301(6) (B).

4. The Security Documents identified in the foregoing paragraphs A through F above have been duly authorized and executed by each Subsidiary Guarantor that is a party thereto, and constitute the respective liability and obligation of each signatory thereto and are enforceable against each signatory.

Based on the foregoing, and subject to the qualifications, limitations and assumptions set forth herein, we are of the opinion that:

a. Each Ship Mortgage constitutes a valid and binding obligation of each respective Subsidiary Guarantor enforceable against the Vessel owned by it in accordance with its terms.

b. The execution and delivery by each Subsidiary Guarantor of the Assignments Amendments executed by it and the consummation by each Subsidiary Guarantor of the transactions contemplated thereby do not result in the violation of any of the Relevant Laws (as hereinafter defined).

e. Each Ship Mortgages (i) constitutes the equivalent of a ““preferred mortgage”“ within the meaning of Section 31301(6) (B) of Title 46 of the United States Code, entitled to the benefits accorded a preferred mortgage on a foreign registered vessel under Sections 31325 and 31326 of Title 46 of the United States Code and (ii) perfects the rights of the Collateral Agent, as assignee, under the Assignments of Insurances respecting each Vessel described in Schedule 2, or perfects the rights of the Collateral Agent, as assignee, under the Second Assignments of Insurances respecting each Vessel described in Schedule 3, as applicable, subject to the giving of notice of assignment to underwriters.

The opinions set forth herein are subject to and limited by the following:

A. The effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer, moratorium and other laws and court decisions or other legal or equitable principles relating to, limiting or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally.

B. The discretion of any court of competent jurisdiction in awarding equitable remedies (regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), including, but not limited to, specific performance or injunctive relief.

C. The enforceability of the Security Documents identified in paragraphs A through F may be subject to: (i) compliance with, and limitations imposed by, procedural requirements relating to the exercise of remedies; (ii) general principles of equity (including, but not limited to, commercial reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing and the requirement that the right, remedy, damages or compensation sought be proportionate to the breach, default, or injury); (iii) provisions of applicable law limiting certain rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders or the effect of certain waivers or agreements, but the inclusion of such provisions in the Security Documents does not, in our opinion, render any Security Documents invalid

4

as a whole and, in our opinion, subject to the limitations referred to in clause (A) above, the Security Documents contain adequate provisions for the practical realization by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders of the principal benefits intended to be provided by the Security Documents.

D. Any purported assignment of any agreement or any governmental approval, license or permit may be subject to restrictions upon assignment or transfer which, although not necessarily applicable to assignments intended as security, may be required to be satisfied before the Collateral Agent will be treated as an assignee thereof, except to the extent that consents to or approvals of such assignment have been obtained from the appropriate governmental body or other Person.

E. The enforceability of the Security Documents identified in paragraphs A through F may be limited by (i) redemption rights of the United States under the Federal Tax Lien Act of 1966, as amended, and (ii) civil or criminal forfeiture provisions contained in any applicable Federal or state laws and regulations, including, without limitation, the forfeiture provisions contained in 00 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx Code Sections 881 and 853.

G. We are admitted to practice law in the State of New York and the local federal district and appellate courts within the City of New York and do not purport to be expert or express any opinion except as to matters involving the laws of New York State and the federal laws of the United States of America (“Relevant Laws”). We are not licensed to practice law in either the RMI, Liberia or Bermuda and insofar as the laws of the those several jurisdictions may be relevant to any opinion expressed herein we have relied on the opinion of the RMI law firm of Xxxxxx & Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx a member of the Liberian bar, and Xxxxxxx, Xxxx & Xxxxxxx, of Hamilton, Bermuda delivered to you herewith and on legal materials available to us to the extent they have enabled us to confirm said opinions.

H. The enforcement of any Ship Mortgage will be subject to the laws of any jurisdiction where enforcement by the Collateral Agent, as mortgagee, may seek to enforce its rights there under.

We have assumed with your permission that no agreement or understanding exists which would modify, supplement or amend any Security Documents, except as described herein. In addition, all other matters stated in this opinion as having been assumed by us have been so assumed with your permission.

The opinions expressed herein are based upon the laws and interpretations in effect on the date hereof, and we assume no obligations to review or supplement this opinion letter should any such law be changed by legislative action, judicial decision or otherwise. In addition, we do not undertake to advise you of matters which occur subsequent to the date hereof and which affect the opinion expressed herein.

This opinion is rendered only to Nordea Bank Finland plc, New York Branch, as Administrative Agent, and Collateral Agent, and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns, and their respective legal advisors and is solely for their benefit in connection with the Credit Agreement. This opinion may not be relied upon by the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or any such Lender (and each of their successors and assigns) for any other purpose, or quoted to or relied upon by any other person, firm or corporation for any purpose without our prior written consent.

Very truly yours,

/s/ X. Xxxxxxxxxxxxx

The Credit Documents and the documents listed in paragraphs a. through l. above are collectively referred to herein as the “Opinion Documents”.

Unless otherwise indicated, capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement.

We have also made such examinations of matters of law as we deem necessary in connection with the opinions expressed herein. In rendering this opinion, we have examined and relied upon originals or copies of Opinion Documents and all such other documents, affidavits, corporate records, or certificates or other statements of RMI government officials and officers of the Credit Parties and such other instruments as we have considered necessary and appropriate.

Whenever our opinion is indicated to be based on our knowledge or awareness, it is intended to signify that, except with respect to opinions 3 and 6 below, we have not undertaken any independent investigation specifically for the purpose of rendering this opinion other than those procedures referred to herein and our knowledge will be limited to those matters of which we have actual knowledge. Whenever we have stated that we have assumed any matter, it is intended that we assume such matter without making any factual, legal, or other inquiry or investigation and without expressing any opinion or conclusion of any kind concerning such matter.

In rendering this opinion we have assumed with your permission and without independent verification:

1. The genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of natural persons and of all parties which are not RMI entities, the authenticity of all items submitted to us, and the conformity with originals of all items submitted to us as originals or electronic copies. We assume that when the parties, other than the Credit Parties, executed and delivered the Opinion Documents, along with all other agreements, instruments, associated documents, and resolutions, that such parties were duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of their respective jurisdictions, that such parties were duly qualified to engage in the transactions covered by this opinion, that such parties had the power and authority to enter into and perform their obligations thereunder, that such parties had duly authorized, executed and delivered the Opinion Documents, that the Opinion Documents constitute the legal, valid, and binding obligations of such parties, that the due authorization, execution, enforceability and delivery of the Opinion Documents complies with all relevant laws other than the laws of the RMI which are the subject of this opinion, and that all actions required to be taken by such parties have been duly accomplished including all conditions precedent; and

2. The truth, accuracy, and completeness of all representations and warranties in the Opinion Documents as to factual matters but not as to conclusions of law that are the subject of this opinion letter.

We express no opinion as to matters governed by, or the effect or applicability of any laws of any jurisdiction other than the laws of the RMI which are in effect as of the date hereof. This opinion speaks as of the date hereof, and it should be recognized that changes may occur after the date of this letter which may affect the opinions set forth herein. We assume no obligation to advise the parties, their counsel, or any other party seeking to rely upon this opinion, of any such changes, whether or not material, or of any other matter which may hereinafter be brought to our attention.

This opinion is furnished solely for your benefit and that of Xxxxxxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxxxxxxxx as counsel for GMC, GMSC II, GMSC, and the other Credit Parties and may not be used for any other purpose or relied upon by, nor copies delivered to, any other persons without our prior written consent in each case.

Based upon and subject to the assumptions, qualifications and limitations herein, we are of the opinion that:

1. Each of the Credit Parties (i) is a corporation or limited liability company duly organized and incorporated or formed and validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the RMI, (ii) has all the corporate or limited liability company power and authority to own its property and assets and to transact the business in which it is engaged and presently proposes to engage in and to enter into and perform its respective obligations under the Credit Agreement and the other Opinion Documents, and (iii) is duly qualified and is authorized to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where the conduct of its business required such qualification except for failures to be so qualified which, either individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

2. Each of the Credit Parties has the corporate or limited liability company power and authority to execute, deliver and perform the terms and provisions of the Opinion Documents to which it is a party and has taken all necessary corporate or limited liability company action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance by it of each of such Opinion Documents. Each of the Credit Parties has duly executed and delivered each of the Opinion Documents to which it is a party, and each of the Opinion Documents to which it is a party constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of each such Credit Party.

3. Neither the execution, delivery or performance by any of the Credit Parties of the Opinion Documents to which it is a party, nor compliance by it respectively with the terms and provisions thereof (i) will contravene any provisions of any applicable RMI law, statute, rule or regulation, (ii) will contravene any provision of any applicable RMI order, writ, injunction or decree of any RMI court or governmental instrumentality applicable to any Credit Party and known to us, (iii) will conflict or be inconsistent with or result in any breach of any of the terms, covenants, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of (or the obligation to create or impose) any Lien upon any of the property or assets of the Credit Parties pursuant to the terms of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, credit agreement or loan agreement, or any other material agreement or instrument to which any of the Credit Parties is a party or by which it any of its property or assets is bound or to which it may be subject or (iv) will violate any provision of the articles of incorporation or by-laws, or the certificate of incorporation or limited liability company certificate of formation or operating agreement of any Credit Party.

4. No RMI order, consent, approval, license, authorization, or validation of, of filing, recording or registration with or exemption by any RMI governmental or public body or authority, or any subdivision thereof, is required to authorize, or is required in connection with: (i) the entry into, execution, delivery and performance of any Opinion Documents or (ii) the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of any such Opinion Document other than the filing of the Mortgage Amendments with the RMI Maritime Administrators Office.

5. It is not necessary or advisable in order to create or maintain a valid preferred mortgage on each of the Mortgaged Vessels listed in Schedule I to file any of the Opinion Documents or any other instrument relating thereto in any RMI court, agency or governmental instrumentality save the recording of the Mortgage Amendments with the RMI Maritime Administrators Office.

6. No further action is required to be taken insofar as the laws of the RMI are concerned to perfect the priority security interests granted by the Credit Parties pursuant to the Opinion Documents or to maintain the perfection of the Opinion Documents.

7. There are no actions, suits, proceedings (private or governmental) pending in the RMI or, to my knowledge, threatened (i) with respect to the Opinion Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby (ii) that, either individually or in the aggregate could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

8. Each of the Mortgaged Vessels listed in Schedule I is duly registered at the office of the RMI Maritime Administrator in the sole ownership of the owner indicated opposite the name of such Mortgaged Vessel as listed in Schedule I pursuant to the laws of the RMI and as of the date set forth on the Mortgage Amendments, and in each case such owner has good and valid title thereto, free of any liens, claims, charges, debts or encumbrances of record other than the relevant Vessel Mortgages.

9. Each of the Mortgage Amendments (i) have been duly executed and delivered by the respective owners, (ii) have been duly registered and recorded at the RMI Maritime Administrator’s office in New York, the only office where registration or recording is necessary, (iii) creates a valid and binding preferred mortgage lien upon the relevant Mortgaged Vessel, with effect and priority from the date hereof pursuant to the laws of the RMI, (iv) is enforceable in accordance with its terms, all in accordance with the laws of the RMI and the performance of the Mortgage Amendments will not violate or conflict with any RMI law, statute or regulation, (v) will maintain its validity and priority without it being necessary or appropriate for it to be rerecorded or re-filed, and (vi) constitutes a “preferred mortgage” within the meaning of Title 47, Chapter 3, Section 303 of the Xxxxxxxx Islands Revised Code, the Preferred Ship Mortgage and Maritime Liens Act.

10. All taxes and charges payable, for the year 2012 in respect of registration of the Mortgaged Vessels, and in respect of the Mortgage Amendments, including recording thereof, have been paid.

11. All permits licenses, consents, and approvals of any RMI governmental authority as a condition to the validity and enforceability of the Vessel Acquisition Documentation for the Mortgaged Vessels set forth in Schedule I, and in connection with the registration of the Mortgaged Vessels set forth in Schedule I have been duly obtained, are in full force and effect as of the date thereof and are valid and sufficient for their respective purposes.

12. A judgment obtained against a Credit party in the courts of New York in respect of the Opinion Documents would be enforced by the courts of the RMI without re-examination of the merits so long as the provisions of the RMI Uniform Foreign Money-Judgments Recognition Act are complied with.

13. Under the laws of the RMI, none of the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties will be deemed to be resident, domiciled or carrying on any commercial activity in the RMI or will be subject to any RMI tax as a result of its entry into the Opinion Documents or the performance of any of the transactions contemplated thereby. It is not necessary for the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties to be authorized or qualified to carry on business in the RMI or to establish a place of business in the RMI for the entry into or performance of the Opinion Documents.

14. The choice of new York law as the governing law of the Credit Agreement, Amended and Restated Subsidiaries Guaranty, Pledge Agreements, Secondary Assignments of Earnings, Secondary Assignments of Insurances, Control Agreements Regarding Deposit Accounts, and the choice of RMI law as the governing law of the Mortgage Amendments would be upheld as a valid choice of law by the courts of the RMI and will be accepted and applied by the RMI courts in proceedings relating to the Opinion Documents.

15. The submission to jurisdiction by the Credit Parties contained in the Opinion Documents is valid and binding on the Credit parties and not subject to revocation without the consent of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties.

16. No stamp duty or similar or other tax or duty is payable in the RMI on the enforcement of a foreign judgment. No tax is required to be withheld by any governmental authority in the RMI with respect to an payments made under any of the Opinion Documents.

17. Other than as state above, all amounts payable under the Opinion Documents may be made free and clear of and without any deduction for or on account of any taxes imposed, assessed or levied by the RMI or any authority thereof or therein.

Sincerely,

/s/ Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxx

To the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent And each of the Lenders party to the Credit Agreement referred to below

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as Liberian counsel to General Maritime Corporation, a Xxxxxxxx Islands corporation (the “Parent”) and each of the Subsidiaries of the Parent listed on Schedule VIII attached hereto (collectively, the “Shipowners” and together with the Parent, the “Credit Parties”), in connection with the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (as amended, supplemented, restated or modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among the Parent, General Maritime Subsidiary Corporation as guarantor, General Maritime Subsidiary II Corporation, as a borrower, Arlington Tankers Ltd., as a guarantor, the lenders from time to time party thereto (the “Lenders”) and Nordea Bank Finland plc, New York Branch, as Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Agent”) and as Collateral Agent (the “Collateral Agent”) for the Lenders. This opinion is delivered pursuant to Section 12.10 (viii) of the Credit Agreement.

In connection with this opinion, we have examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such documents as we have deemed necessary or appropriate as a basis for the opinions set forth herein, including, without limitation, the following (collectively the “Documents”): (a) the Credit Agreement, (b) the Amended and Restated Subsidiaries Guaranty dated as of May 17, 2012, (c) the Amended and Restated Secondary Pledge Agreement dated as of May 17 2012, (d) the recorded amendments to the Liberia Second Preferred Ship Mortgages (the “Liberian Vessel Mortgages”) each dated the date hereof (collectively, the “Amendments to the Liberian Vessel Mortgages”), covering the Liberian flag Vessels listed on Schedule A attached hereto and other vessels (collectively, the “Liberian Vessels”), (e) the Omnibus Amendment dated as of the date hereof (the “Omnibus Amendment to Assignments of Earnings”) to the

Assignments of Earnings respecting each of the Liberian Vessels and other vessels dated as of the date hereof respecting each of the Liberian Vessels and other vessels (the “Assignments of Earnings”), (f) the Omnibus Amendment dated as of the date hereof (the Omnibus Amendment to Assignments of Insurances respecting each of the Liberian Vessels and other vessels (the “Assignments of Insurances”), (g) the Secondary Charter Assignment for m.v. Genmar Xxxxxxx G dated as of the date hereof (the “Charter Assignment”), and the Secondary Intercreditor Agreement dated as of the date hereof.

We also have examined the articles of organization and operating agreement or by laws and the corporate resolutions of each of the Shipowners and such other public and corporate documents and records and such laws, regulations and enactments of the Republic of Liberia as we have deemed necessary or appropriate in connection with this opinion.

In our examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures (other than as to the Liberian Companies), the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified or photo-static copies and the authenticity of the originals of such copies. As to questions of fact not independently verified by us we have relied, to the extent we have deemed appropriate, upon certificates of officers of the Liberian Companies, public officials and other appropriate persons,

We have further assumed that:

1. The Parent and each other party to the Documents (other than the Shipowners) (i) is a duly organized and validly existing corporation or limited liability company as the case may be in good standing under the laws of the states of its organization, (ii) has the corporate power and authority to own its property and assets and to transact the business in which it is engaged and presently proposes to engage in and (iii) is duly qualified and is authorized to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction (other than the Republic of Liberia) where the conduct of its business requires such qualification except for failures to be so qualified which, either individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

2. The Parent and each other party to the Documents (other than the Shipowners) has the corporate or limited liability company power and authority to execute, deliver and perform the terms and provisions of the Documents to which each is a party and has taken all necessary corporate or limited liability company action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance by the Parent and each such other party to the Documents.

The opinions expressed herein are subject to the qualifications that (i) they are limited to the laws of the Republic of Liberia in existence as of the date hereof; and (ii) enforceability of the documents may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws generally affecting creditors’ rights and by equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law).

2

Subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:

1. Each of the Shipowners is a limited liability company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the Republic of Liberia.

2. Each of the Shipowners has the limited liability company power and authority to enter into, observe and perform the terms and obligations on its part to be observed and performed under each of the Documents to which it is a party and has taken all necessary corporate action to authorize the execution and delivery of each such Document and the performance of its obligations in accordance with its terms.

3. Each of the Liberian Vessels is duly registered under the laws and flag of the Republic of Liberia at the Deputy Commissioner’s Office, 00 Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx (the “Deputy Commissioner’s Office”) in the sole ownership of the Shipowners set forth opposite each Liberian Vessel on Schedule B attached hereto pursuant to the laws of the Republic of Liberia as of the date hereof, free of any liens, claims, debt or encumbrances of record other than the Mortgages, as amended by the Amendments to the Liberian Vessel Secondary Mortgages (the “Liberian Amended Secondary Vessel Mortgages”) and those certain First Preferred Liberian Mortgages, as amended, in favor of the Collateral Agent.

4. Each of the Documents, including the Amendments to the Liberian Vessel Secondary Mortgages, (i) has been duly executed and delivered by the Shipowners, and has been duly recorded as set forth at the Deputy Commissioner’s Office, the only office where recording is necessary.

5. Each of the Liberian Amended Secondary Vessel Mortgages (i) creates a valid and binding second priority mortgage lien upon the vessel securing the “Indebtedness hereby secured” as defined therein pursuant to the laws of the Republic of Liberia, (ii) is enforceable in accordance with its terms, all in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Liberia, and (iii) constitutes a “second preferred mortgage” within the meaning of Title 21, Chapter 3, Section 105 (4) of the Liberian Code of Laws of 1956, as amended.

6. The execution, delivery and performance of all obligations pursuant to each of the Documents by the Shipowners will not violate or conflict with (i) any Liberian law, statute or regulation or (ii) any such entity’s organizational documents.

7. All permits, licenses, consents and approvals of any governmental authority required as a condition to the validity and enforceability of the Documents have been duly obtained, are in full force and effect as of the date thereof and are valid and sufficient for their respective purposes.

8. Except for the recordation of the Amendments to the Liberian Vessel

3

Secondary Mortgages at the Deputy Commissioner’s Office, no order, consent, approval, license, authorization, recording or registration with or exemption by any governmental or public body or authority, or any subdivision of the Republic of Liberia is required to authorize, or is required in connection with, (i) the entry into, execution, delivery and performance of the Documents or (ii) the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of the Documents.

9. Insofar as the laws of the Republic of Liberia are concerned, the choice of New York law to govern the Documents to which each of the Shipowners is a party (other than the Amendments to the Liberian Vessel Secondary Mortgages) is a valid choice of law, and the submission in such Documents by each of the Shipowners thereto to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York, located in New York City, or of the United States for the Southern District of New York is valid and binding upon the parties; and the choice of law of the Republic of Liberia to govern each of the Liberian Amended Secondary Vessel Mortgages is a valid choice of law.

10. The provisions of each of the Assignments of Earnings as amended by Omnibus Amendment to Assignments of Earnings and the Assignments of Insurances as amended by Omnibus Amendment to Assignments of Insurances are sufficient to create in favor of the Collateral Agent a second priority perfected security interest in all right, title and interest of the Shipowner party thereto in those items and types of property described in such Assignments of Earnings as amended by Omnibus Amendment to Assignments of Earnings and the Assignments of Insurances as amended by Omnibus Amendment to Assigmnents of Insurances.

11. The provisions of the Charter Assignment are sufficient to create in favor of the Collateral Agent a first priority perfected security interest in all right, title and interest of the Shipowner party thereto in those items and types of property described in such Charter Assignments.

12. All amounts payable under the Documents may be made free and clear of and without deduction for or on account of any taxes imposed, assessed or levied by Liberia or any authority thereof or therein.

13. No stamp or registration duty or similar taxes or charges are payable in Liberia in respect of the Documents except that for the admissibility of any of the Documents into evidence in a Liberian court of competent jurisdiction a revenue stamp of national value should be affixed thereto any time prior to its presentation to the court.

14. A judgment obtained against any Shipowner in the courts of New York in respect of the Documents would be enforced by the courts of Liberia without re-examination of the merits of the case if: (i) the court rendering the judgment had jurisdiction over the parties and the subject-matter; (ii) the judgment is for a definite sum of money and is final in the jurisdiction in which the judgment was rendered; (iii) the Shipowner was present in person or by a duly appointed representative; (iv) the judgment was not a

4

default judgment; (v) the judgment was not obtained by fraud; and (vi) the judgment does not offend the principles of the Republic of Liberia as to due process, natural justice or public policy.

15. Under the laws of Liberia, none of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent nor the Lenders will be deemed to be resident, domiciled or carrying on any commercial activity in Liberia or subject to any Liberian tax as a result of its entry into the Documents or the performance of any of the transactions contemplated thereby. It is not necessary for the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Lenders to be authorized or qualified to carry on business in Liberia or establish a place of business in Liberia for the entry into or performance of the Documents.

16. Insofar as we are aware, no suits or proceedings are pending or threatened in any Liberian court or governmental instrumentality with respect to any Document or Shipowner.

17. No further action is required to be taken insofar as the laws of the Republic of Liberia are concerned to perfect the second priority security interests granted by the Credit Parties pursuant to the Documents.

This opinion is being furnished only to the addressees hereof and the Credit Parties and is solely for their benefit and the benefit of their permitted successors and assigns in connection with the above transaction. Except for Xxxxxxxxxxx X. Xxxxxxxxxxxxx, New York maritime counsel for the Credit Parties, who may rely on this opinion when delivering his opinion, without our prior written consent in each case, this opinion may not be relied upon for any other purpose, or relied upon by any other person, firm or corporation for any purpose, without our prior written consent.

Very truly yours,

/s/ Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx

2

(i) the Credit Agreement;

(ii) the Guaranty;

(iii) the Secondary Pledge;

(iv) the Share Charges;

(v) the Arlington Share Charge;

(vi) the Mortgages;

(vii) the Insurances Assignments;

(x) the Primary Intercreditor Agreement;

(xi) the Secondary Intercreditor Agreement;

(xii) the Pari Passu Pledge Agreement;

(xiv) the Pari Passu Control Agreement.

The documents listed in items (i) through (xiv) above are herein sometimes collectively referred to as the “Documents” (which term does not include any other instrument or agreement whether or not specifically referred to therein or attached as an exhibit or schedule thereto).

We have also reviewed the certificate of incorporation, the memorandum of association and the bye-laws of each of the Companies, certified by the Secretary of the Companies on 25 April 2012, resolutions of the directors of each of the Companies each passed on 14 May 2012 (together, the “Resolutions”), a power of attorney granted by the Companies dated 17 May 2012 (the “Power of Attorney”), transcripts of register issued by the Department of Maritime Administration in Bermuda on 17 May 2012 at 12:09 p.m. (GENMAR VISION), 12:03 p.m. (GENMAR VICTORY), 11:57 a.m. (GENMAR CONSUL), 11:45 a.m. (GENMAR COMPANION) and 11:51 a.m. (GENMAR COMPATRIOT) (the “Transcripts”) in respect of each of the Vessels and such other documents and made such enquiries as to questions of law as we have deemed necessary in order to render the opinion set forth below.

We have assumed (a) the genuineness and authenticity of all signatures and the conformity to the originals of all copies (whether or not certified) examined by us and the authenticity and completeness of the originals from which such copies were taken; (b) that where a document has been examined by us in draft form, it will be or has been executed in the form of that draft, and where a number of drafts of a document have been examined by us all changes thereto have been marked or otherwise drawn to our attention; (c) the capacity, power and authority of each of the parties to the Documents, other than the Companies, to enter into and perform its respective obligations under the Documents; (d) the due execution and delivery of the Documents by each of the parties thereto, other than the Companies, and the physical delivery by each of the Companies of the Documents to which it is a party with an intention to be bound thereby; (e) the accuracy and completeness of all factual representations made in the Documents and other documents reviewed by us; (f) that the Resolutions were passed at one or more duly convened, constituted and quorate meetings or by unanimous written resolutions, remain in full force and effect and have not been rescinded or amended; (g) that each of the Shipowning Companies is entering into the Documents to which it is a party pursuant to its business of shipowning; (h) that there is no provision of the law of any jurisdiction, other than Bermuda, which would have any implication in relation to the opinions expressed herein; (i) the validity and binding effect under the laws of the State of New York (the “Foreign Laws”) of the Documents (except the Mortgages, the Deeds of Covenant and the Share Charges) which are expressed to be governed by such Foreign Laws in accordance with their respective terms; (j) the validity and binding effect under the Foreign Laws of the submission by the Company pursuant to the Documents (except

4

the Mortgages) to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the federal and state courts in the State of New York (the “Foreign Courts”); (k) that none of the parties to the Documents carries on business from premises in Bermuda, at which it employs staff and pays salaries and other expenses; (1) that on the date of entering into the Documents each of the Companies, are and after entering into the Documents will be able to pay its liabilities as they become due.

The obligations of each of the Companies under the Documents (a) will be subject to the laws from time to rime in effect relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, possessory liens, rights of set off, reorganisation, amalgamation, moratorium or any other laws or legal procedures, whether of a similar nature or otherwise, generally affecting the rights of creditors; (b) will be subject to statutory limitation of the time within which proceedings may be brought; (c) will be subject to general principles of equity and, as such, specific performance and injunctive relief, being equitable remedies, may not be available; (d) may not be given effect to by a Bermuda court, whether or not it was applying the Foreign Laws, if and to the extent they constitute the payment of an amount which is in the nature of a penalty and not in the nature of liquidated damages; (e) may not be given effect by a Bermuda court to the extent that they are to be performed in a jurisdiction outside Bermuda and such performance would be illegal under the laws of that jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any contractual submission to the jurisdiction of specific courts, a Bermuda court has inherent discretion to stay or allow proceedings in the Bermuda courts.

We express no opinion as to the enforceability of any provision of the Documents which provides for the payment of a specified rate of interest on the amount of a judgment after the date of judgment or which purports to xxxxxx the statutory powers of the Companies.

Any provision of a document governed by Bermuda law expressly or impliedly providing that certain statements, calculations and/or certificates will be conclusive and binding may not be effective if such statements, calculations or certificates are incorrect on their face or fraudulent and will not necessarily prevent judicial enquiry into the merits of a claim of an aggrieved party. In addition, an agreement governed by Bermuda law may be amended orally despite any provision to the contrary in such agreement, and the question of whether any provisions of such an agreement which may be illegal, invalid or ineffective may be severed from the other provisions of such agreement would be determined by the courts at their discretion.

We have made no investigation of and express no opinion in relation to the laws of any jurisdiction other than Bermuda. This opinion is to be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Bermuda and is limited to and is given on the basis of the current law and practice in Bermuda. This opinion is issued solely for your benefit and use in connection with the matter described herein and is not to be relied upon by any other person, firm or entity or in respect of any other matter. This opinion is issued solely for your benefit and is not to be relied upon by any other person, firm or entity or in

5

respect of any other matter, except that any person who acquires a participation and becomes a Lender under the Credit Agreement may rely on this opinion subject to the entirety of the advice given to you and to the extent that you can rely on it.

On the basis of and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:

1. Each of the Companies is duly incorporated and existing under the laws of Bermuda.

2. Each of the Companies has the necessary corporate power and authority to enter into and perform its obligations under the Documents to which it is a party. The execution and delivery of the Documents to which each Company is a party by such Company and the performance by such Company of its obligations thereunder will not violate the memorandum of association or bye-laws of the respective Company nor any applicable law, regulation, order or decree in Bermuda.

3. Each of the Companies has taken all corporate action required to authorise its execution, delivery and performance of the Documents to which it is a party. Such Documents have been duly executed and delivered by or on behalf of such Company, and constitute the valid and binding obligations of such Company in accordance with the terms thereof.

4. No order, consent, approval, licence, authorisation or validation of or exemption by any government or public body or authority of Bermuda or any sub-division thereof is required to authorise or is required in connection with the execution, delivery, performance and enforcement of the Documents, except such as have been duly obtained in accordance with Bermuda law.

5. It is not necessary or desirable to ensure the enforceability in Bermuda of the Documents that they be registered in any register kept by, or filed with, any governmental authority or regulatory body in Bermuda. However, to the extent that the Documents create a charge over assets of the Companies (other than land in Bermuda, a ship registered in Bermuda or any interest therein registerable under the Merchant Shipping Act 2002), it may be desirable to ensure the priority in Bermuda of the charge that it be registered in the Register of Charges in accordance with Part V of the Company Xxx 0000. On registration, to the extent that Bermuda law governs the priority of a charge, such charge will have priority in Bermuda over any unregistered charges created after 11 July 1984, and over any subsequently registered charges, in respect of the assets which are the subject of the charge. A registration fee of $574 will be payable in respect of the registration.

6

To the extent that the Documents create a charge over a ship registered in Bermuda or any interest therein registerable under the Merchant Shipping Xxx 0000, it will be desirable to ensure the priority in Bermuda of the charge that it be registered in the Register of Ships at the Department of Maritime Administration in Bermuda. On registration, to the extent that Bermuda law governs the priority of such a charge, the charge will have priority in Bermuda over any unregistered charges and over any subsequently registered charges in respect of the assets which are the subject of the charge. A registration fee of $440 will be payable in respect of the registration.

While there is no exhaustive definition of a charge under Bermuda law, a charge includes any interest created in property by way of security (including any mortgage, assignment, pledge, lien or hypothecation). As the Documents (other than the Mortgages, the Deeds of Covenant and the Share Charges) are governed by the Foreign Laws, the question of whether they create such an interest in property would be determined under the Foreign Laws.

6. Based solely on our review of the Transcripts, the Mortgages were registered in the Register of Ships pursuant to the Merchant Shipping Xxx 0000 on 17 May 2012 at 12:09 p.m. (GENMAR VISION), 12:03 p.m. (GENMAR VICTORY), 11:57 a.m. (GENMAR CONSUL), 11:45 a.m. (GENMAR COMPANION) and 11:57 a.m. (GENMAR COMPATRIOT).

7. The Mortgages constitute a second priority mortgage under the Merchant Shipping Xxx 0000, having the effect and with the priority provided in the Merchant Shipping Xxx 0000. No periodic re-recording or periodic refiling of the Mortgages is necessary under existing Bermuda law.

8. Based solely on a search of the Register of Charges maintained by the Registrar of Companies pursuant to Section 55 of the Companies Xxx 0000 conducted at 11:14 a.m. (Vision Ltd.), 11:31 a.m. (Victory Ltd.), 11:20 a.m. (Consul Ltd.), 11:50 a.m. (Compatriot Ltd.), 11:08 a.m. (Companion Ltd.) and 11:40 a.m. (Arlington) on 17 May 2012 (which would not reveal details of matters which have been lodged for registration but not actually registered at the time of our search), there are charges registered on the assets of the Companies.

9. Based solely upon a search of the Cause Book of the Supreme Court of Bermuda conducted at 10:55 a.m. (Vision Ltd.), 10:55 a.m. (Victory Ltd.), 10:55 a.m. (Consul Ltd.), 10:55 a.m. (Compatriot Ltd.), 10:55 a.m. (Companion Ltd.) and 10:55 a.m. (Arlington) on 17 May 2012 (which would not reveal details of proceedings which have been filed but not actually entered in the Cause Book at the time of our search), there are no judgments against the Companies, nor any legal or

7

governmental proceedings pending in Bermuda to which the Companies are subject.

10. The Documents will not be subject to ad valorem stamp duty in Bermuda and no registration, documentary, recording, transfer or other similar tax, fee or charge is payable in Bermuda in connection with the execution, delivery, filing, registration or performance of the Documents.

11. The Bank or the Lenders will not be deemed to be resident, domiciled or carrying on business in Bermuda by reason only of the execution, performance and/or enforcement of the Documents by the Bank or the Lenders.

12. It is not necessary or advisable in order for the Bank or the Lenders to enforce its rights under the Documents, including the exercise of remedies thereunder, that it be licensed, qualified or otherwise entitled to carry on business in Bermuda.

13. The choice of the Foreign Laws as the governing law of the Documents (other than the Mortgages, the Deeds of Covenant and the Share Charges) is a valid choice of law and would be recognised and given effect to in any action brought before a court of competent jurisdiction in Bermuda, except for those laws (i) which such court considers to be procedural in nature, (ii) which are revenue or penal laws or (iii) the application of which would be inconsistent with public policy, as such term is interpreted under the laws of Bermuda. The submission in the Documents (other than the Mortgages) to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Foreign Courts is valid and binding upon the Companies.

14. The courts of Bermuda would recognise as a valid judgment, a final and conclusive judgment in personam obtained in the Foreign Courts against a Company based upon the Documents under which a sum of money is payable (other than a sum of money payable in respect of multiple damages, taxes or other charges of a like nature or in respect of a fine or other penalty) and would give a judgment based thereon provided that (a) such courts had proper jurisdiction over the parties subject to such judgment; (b) such courts did not contravene the rules of natural justice of Bermuda; (c) such judgment was not obtained by fraud; (d) the enforcement of the judgment would not be contrary to the public policy of Bermuda; (e) no new admissible evidence relevant to the action is submitted prior to the rendering of the judgment by the courts of Bermuda; and (f) there is due compliance with the correct procedures under the laws of Bermuda.

Yours faithfully,

FORM OF AMENDED AND RESTATED SUBSIDIARIES GUARANTY

AMENDED AND RESTATED SUBSIDIARIES GUARANTY, dated as of May 17, 2012 (as amended, modified, restated and/or supplemented from time to time, this “Guaranty”), made by each of the undersigned guarantors (each a “Guarantor” and, together with any other entity that becomes a guarantor hereunder pursuant to Section 25 hereof, the “Guarantors”) in favor of Nordea Bank Finland plc, New York Branch, as Administrative Agent (as defined below) for the benefit of the Secured Creditors (as defined below). Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used herein and defined in the Credit Agreement (as defined below) shall be used herein as therein defined.

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, General Maritime Corporation (the “Parent”), General Maritime Subsidiary II Corporation (the “Borrower”), General Maritime Subsidiary Corporation, as a guarantor (“GMSC”), Arlington Tankers Ltd., as a guarantor, have entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of May 17, 2012 (as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among various lenders referred to therein (the “Lenders”), and Nordea Bank Finland plc, New York Branch, as Administrative Agent and as Collateral Agent (in such capacity, together with any successor Administrative Agent, the “Administrative Agent”), providing for the continuation of term loans, the conversion of revolving loans into term loans and the termination of unutilized revolving commitments, if any, to the Borrower as contemplated therein (the Lenders, the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent are herein called the “Secured Creditors”);

WHEREAS, each Guarantor is a direct or indirect Subsidiary of the Parent;

WHEREAS, it is a condition precedent to the making of Loans to the Borrower under the Credit Agreement that each Guarantor shall have executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent this Guaranty; and

WHEREAS, each Guarantor will obtain benefits from the continuation of term loans and the conversion of revolving loans into term loans by the Borrower under the Credit Agreement and, accordingly, desires to execute this Guaranty in order to satisfy the condition described in the preceding paragraph;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and other benefits accruing to each Guarantor, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, each Guarantor hereby makes the following representations and warranties to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors and hereby covenants and agrees with each other Guarantor and the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors as follows:

1. Each Guarantor, jointly and severally, irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to the Secured Creditors the full and prompt payment when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of (x) the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes issued by, and the Loans made to, the Borrower under the Credit Agreement, and (y) all other obligations (including obligations which, but for the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, would become due), liabilities and indebtedness owing by the Borrower to the Secured Creditors (in the capacities referred to in the definition of Secured Creditors) under the Credit Agreement and each other Credit Document to which the Borrower is a party (including, without limitation, indemnities, fees and interest thereon (including any interest accruing after the commencement of any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar proceeding at the rate provided for in the Credit Agreement, whether or not such interest is an allowed claim in any such proceeding)), whether now existing or hereafter incurred under, arising out of or in connection with the Credit Agreement and any such other Credit Document and the due performance and compliance by the Borrower with all of the terms, conditions and agreements contained in all such Credit Documents (all such principal, premium, interest, liabilities, indebtedness and obligations being herein collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”). As used herein, the term “Guaranteed Party” shall mean the Parent, GMSC, the Borrower and each Subsidiary of the Parent that is a Credit Party. Each Guarantor understands, agrees and confirms that the Secured Creditors may enforce this Guaranty up to the full amount of the Guaranteed Obligations against such Guarantor without proceeding against any other Guarantor, the Parent, the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party, against any security for the Guaranteed Obligations, or under any other guaranty covering all or a portion of the Guaranteed Obligations.

2. Additionally, each Guarantor, jointly and severally, unconditionally, absolutely and irrevocably, guarantees the payment of any and all Guaranteed Obligations whether or not due or payable by the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party upon the occurrence in respect of the Borrower or any such other Guaranteed Party of any of the events specified in Section 10.05 of the Credit Agreement, and unconditionally, absolutely and irrevocably, jointly and severally, promises to pay such Guaranteed Obligations to the Secured Creditors, or order, on demand. This Guaranty shall constitute a guaranty of payment, and not of collection.

3. The liability of each Guarantor hereunder is primary, absolute, joint and several, and unconditional and is exclusive and independent of any security for or other guaranty of the indebtedness of the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party whether executed by such Guarantor, any other Guarantor, any other guarantor or by any other party, and the liability of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected or impaired by any circumstance or occurrence whatsoever, including, without limitation: (a) any direction as to application of payment by the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party or by any other party, (b) any other continuing or other guaranty, undertaking or maximum liability of a guarantor or of any other party as to the Guaranteed Obligations, (c) any payment on or in reduction of any such other guaranty or undertaking, (d) any dissolution, termination or increase, decrease or change in personnel by the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party, (e) the failure of the Guarantor to receive any benefit from or as a result of its execution, delivery and performance of this Guaranty, (f) to the extent permitted by applicable law, any payment made to any Secured Creditor on the indebtedness which any Secured Creditor repays the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party pursuant to court order in any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other debtor relief

2

proceeding, and each Guarantor waives any right to the deferral or modification of its obligations hereunder by reason of any such proceeding, (g) any action or inaction by the Secured Creditors as contemplated in Section 6 hereof or (h) any invalidity, rescission, irregularity or unenforceability of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or of any security therefor.

4. The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of any other Guarantor, any other guarantor, the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against each Guarantor whether or not action is brought against any other Guarantor, any other guarantor, the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party and whether or not any other Guarantor, any other guarantor, the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party be joined in any such action or actions. Each Guarantor waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the benefits of any statute of limitations affecting its liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof. Any payment by the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party or other circumstance which operates to toll any statute of limitations as to the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party shall operate to toll the statute of limitations as to each Guarantor.

5. Any Secured Creditor may at any time and from time to time without the consent of, or notice to, any Guarantor, without incurring responsibility to such Guarantor, without impairing or releasing the obligations or liabilities of such Guarantor hereunder, upon or without any terms or conditions and in whole or in part:

(a) change the manner, place or terms of payment of, and/or change, increase or extend the time of payment of, renew, increase, accelerate or alter, any of the Guaranteed Obligations (including, without limitation, any increase or decrease in the rate of interest thereon or the principal amount thereof), any security therefor, or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof, and the guaranty herein made shall apply to the Guaranteed Obligations as so changed, extended, increased, accelerated, renewed or altered;

(b) take and hold security for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations and sell, exchange, release, surrender, impair, realize upon or otherwise deal with in any manner and in any order any property or other collateral by whomsoever at any time pledged or mortgaged to secure, or howsoever securing, the Guaranteed Obligations or any liabilities (including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and/or any offset there against;

(c) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Borrower, any other Guaranteed Party, any other Credit Party, any Subsidiary thereof or otherwise act or refrain from acting;

(d) release or substitute any one or more endorsers, Guarantors, other guarantors, the Borrower, any other Guaranteed Party, or other obligors;

(e) settle or compromise any of the Guaranteed Obligations, any security therefor or any liability (including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and may subordinate the payment of all or any part thereof to the payment of

3

any liability (whether due or not) of the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party to creditors of the Borrower or such other Guaranteed Party other than the Secured Creditors;

(f) apply any sums by whomsoever paid or howsoever realized to any liability or liabilities of the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party to the Secured Creditors regardless of what liabilities of the Borrower or such other Guaranteed Party remain unpaid;

(g) consent to or waive any breach of, or any act, omission or default under, any of the Credit Documents or any of the instruments or agreements referred to therein, or otherwise amend, modify or supplement (in accordance with their terms) any of the Credit Documents or any of such other instruments or agreements;

(h) act or fail to act in any manner which may deprive such Guarantor of its right to subrogation against the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party to recover full indemnity for any payments made pursuant to this Guaranty; and/or

(i) take any other action or omit to take any other action which would, under otherwise applicable principles of common law, give rise to a legal or equitable discharge of such Guarantor from its liabilities under this Guaranty (including, without limitation, any action or omission whatsoever that might otherwise vary the risk of such Guarantor or constitute a legal or equitable defense to or discharge of the liabilities of a guarantor or surety or that might otherwise limit recourse against such Guarantor).

No invalidity, illegality, irregularity or unenforceability of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Credit Documents or any other agreement or instrument relating to the Guaranteed Obligations or of any security or guarantee therefor shall affect, impair or be a defense to this Guaranty, and this Guaranty shall be primary, absolute and unconditional notwithstanding the occurrence of any event or the existence of any other circumstances which might constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a surety or guarantor except payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations or as otherwise provided under the terms of the Credit Agreement.

6. This Guaranty is a continuing one and all liabilities to which it applies or may apply under the terms hereof shall be conclusively presumed to have been created in reliance hereon. No failure or delay on the part of any Secured Creditor in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder. The rights and remedies herein expressly specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which any Secured Creditor would otherwise have hereunder. No notice to or demand on any Guarantor in any case shall entitle such Guarantor to any other further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of any Secured Creditor to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. It is not necessary for any Secured Creditor to inquire into the capacity or powers of the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party or the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on its or their behalf, and any indebtedness made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed hereunder.

4

7. Any indebtedness of the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party now or hereafter held by any Guarantor is hereby subordinated to the indebtedness of the Borrower or such other Guaranteed Party to the Secured Creditors, and such indebtedness of the Borrower or such other Guaranteed Party to any Guarantor, if the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, so requests, shall be collected, enforced and received by such Guarantor as trustee for the Secured Creditors and be paid over to the Secured Creditors on account of the indebtedness of the Borrower or the other Guaranteed Parties to the Secured Creditors, but without affecting or impairing in any manner the liability of such Guarantor under the other provisions of this Guaranty. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor hereby agrees with the Secured Creditors that it will not exercise any right of subrogation which it may at any time otherwise have as a result of this Guaranty (whether contractual, under Section 509 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise) until all Guaranteed Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full in cash; provided that if any amount shall be paid to such Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time prior to the irrevocable payment in full in cash of all the Guaranteed Obligations, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Creditors and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent to be credited and applied upon the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Documents or, if the Credit Documents do not provide for the application of such amount, to be held by the Secured Creditors as collateral security for any Guaranteed Obligations thereafter existing.

8. (a) Each Guarantor hereby waives (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) notice of acceptance of this Guaranty and notice of the existence, creation or incurrence of any new or additional liability to which it may apply, and waives promptness, diligence, presentment, demand of payment, demand for performance, protest, notice of dishonor or nonpayment of any such liabilities, suit or taking of other action by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Creditor against, and any other notice to, any party liable thereon (including such Guarantor, any other Guarantor, any other guarantor, the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party) and each Guarantor further hereby waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and notice or proof of reliance by any Secured Creditor upon this Guaranty, and the Guaranteed Obligations shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended, modified, supplemented or waived, in reliance upon this Guaranty. Each Guarantor hereby waives any defense it may now or hereafter assert in any way relating to any law, regulation, decree or order of any jurisdiction, or any other event, affecting any term of any Obligation or any Secured Creditor’s rights with respect thereto.

(b) Each Guarantor hereby waives any right (except as shall be required by applicable law and cannot be waived) to require the Secured Creditors to: (i) proceed against the Borrower, any other Guaranteed Party, any other Guarantor, any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other party; (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from the Borrower, any other Guaranteed Party, any other Guarantor, any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other party; or (iii) pursue any other remedy in the Secured Creditors’ power whatsoever. Each Guarantor waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of the Borrower, any other Guaranteed Party, any other Guarantor, any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other party other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations, including, without limitation, any defense based on or arising out of the disability of

5

the Borrower, any other Guaranteed Party, any other Guarantor, any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other party, or the unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations. The Secured Creditors may, at their election, to the extent permitted under the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents, foreclose on any security held by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the other Secured Creditors by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, whether or not every aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable to the extent permitted by applicable law, or exercise any other right or remedy the Secured Creditors may have against the Borrower, any other Guaranteed Party or any other party, or any security, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Guarantor hereunder except to the extent the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid in full in cash. Each Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election by the Secured Creditors, even though such election operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of such Guarantor against the Borrower, any other Guaranteed Party or any other party or any security.

(c) Each Guarantor waives all presentments, promptness, diligence, demands for performance, protests and notices, including, without limitation, notices of nonperformance, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of this Guaranty, and notices of the existence, creation or incurring of new or additional indebtedness. Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the Borrower’s and each other Guaranteed Party’s financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks which such Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that the Secured Creditors shall have no duty to advise any Guarantor of information known to them regarding such circumstances or risks.

Each Guarantor warrants and agrees that each of the waivers set forth above in this Section 8 is made with full knowledge of its significance and consequences and that if any of such waivers are determined to be contrary to any applicable law or public policy, such waivers shall be effective only to the maximum extent permitted by law.

9. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Guaranty, the Secured Creditors agree (by their acceptance of the benefits of this Guaranty) that this Guaranty may be enforced only by the action of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, in each case acting upon the written instructions of the Required Lenders, and that no other Secured Creditor shall have any right individually to seek to enforce or to enforce this Guaranty, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent. The Secured Creditors further agree that this Guaranty may not be enforced against any director, officer, employee, partner, member or stockholder of any Guarantor (except to the extent such partner, member or stockholder is also a Guarantor hereunder). It is understood and agreed that the agreement in this Section 9 is among and solely for the benefit of the Secured Creditors and that, if the Required Lenders so agree (without requiring the consent of any Guarantor), this Guaranty may be directly enforced by any Secured Creditor.

6

(b) The Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent will hold in accordance with this Guaranty all collateral at any time received under this Guaranty. It is expressly understood and agreed by each Secured Creditor that by accepting the benefits of this Guaranty each such Secured Creditor acknowledges and agrees that the obligations of the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent as enforcer of this Guaranty and interests herein are only those expressly set forth in this Guaranty and in Section 11 of the Credit Agreement. The Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent shall act hereunder on the terms and conditions set forth herein and in Section 11 of the Credit Agreement.

10. In order to induce the Lenders to continue term loans, convert revolving loans into term loans, and terminate unutilized revolving commitments, if any, to the Borrower pursuant to the Credit Agreement, each Guarantor represents, warrants and covenants that as of the date hereof:

(a) Such Guarantor (i) is a duly organized and validly existing corporation, limited partnership or limited liability company, as the case may be, in good standing (or the equivalent) under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation, (ii) has the corporate or other applicable power and authority, as the case may be, to own its property and assets and to transact the business in which it is currently engaged and presently proposes to engage and (iii) is duly qualified and is authorized to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where the conduct of its business as currently conducted requires such qualification, except for failures to be so qualified which, either individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Such Guarantor has the corporate or other applicable power and authority to execute, deliver and perform the terms and provisions of this Guaranty and each other Credit Document to which it is a party and has taken all necessary corporate or other applicable action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance by it of this Guaranty and each such other Credit Document. Such Guarantor has duly executed and delivered this Guaranty and each other Credit Document to which it is a party, and this Guaranty and each such other Credit Document constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Guarantor enforceable against such Guarantor in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that the enforceability hereof or thereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws generally affecting creditors’ rights and by equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law).

(c) Neither the execution, delivery or performance by such Guarantor of this Guaranty or any other Credit Document to which it is a party, nor compliance by it with the terms and provisions hereof and thereof, will (i) contravene any provision of any applicable law, statute, rule or regulation or any applicable order, writ, injunction or decree of any court or governmental instrumentality, (ii) conflict with or result in any breach of any of the terms, covenants, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of (or the obligation to create or impose) any Lien (except pursuant to the Security Documents) upon any of the material properties or assets of such Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement or credit agreement, or any other material agreement, contract or instrument, to which such Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which it or any of its material property or

7

assets is bound or to which it may be subject or (iii) violate any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws (or equivalent organizational documents), as the case may be, of such Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries.

(d) No order, consent, approval, license, authorization or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with (except as have been obtained or made prior to the date when required and which remain in full force and effect), or exemption by, any governmental or public body or authority, or any subdivision thereof, is required to authorize, or is required in connection with, (i) the execution, delivery and performance of this Guaranty by such Guarantor or any other Credit Document to which such Guarantor is a party or (ii) the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of this Guaranty or any other Credit Document to which such Guarantor is a party.

(e) There are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to such Guarantor’s knowledge, threatened (i) with respect to this Guaranty or any other Credit Document to which such Guarantor is a party or (ii) with respect to such Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries that, either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

11. Each Guarantor covenants and agrees that on and after the Restatement Effective Date and until the repayment in full of the Loans and until such time as no Notes remain outstanding and all Guaranteed Obligations have been paid in full, such Guarantor will comply, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to comply, with all of the applicable provisions, covenants and agreements contained in Sections 8 and 9 of the Credit Agreement, and will take, or will refrain from taking, as the case may be, all actions that are necessary to be taken or not taken so that it is not in violation of any provision, covenant or agreement contained in Section 8 or 9 of the Credit Agreement, and so that no Default or Event of Default is caused by the actions of such Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries.

12. The Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of (i) each Secured Creditor in connection with the enforcement of this Guaranty (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel employed by the Administrative Agent) and (ii) the Administrative Agent in connection with any amendment, waiver or consent relating hereto (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel employed by the Administrative Agent).

13. This Guaranty shall be binding upon each Guarantor and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Secured Creditors and their successors and assigns.

14. Neither this Guaranty nor any provision hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated except with the written consent of each Guarantor directly affected thereby and with the written consent of the Administrative Agent (or, to the extent required by Section 12.12 of the Credit Agreement, with the written consent of all the Lenders or all of the Lenders directly affected thereby, as applicable) at all times prior to the time on which all Guaranteed Obligations have been paid in full.

8

15.    Each Guarantor acknowledges that an executed (or conformed) copy of each of the Credit Documents has been made available to a senior officer of such Guarantor and such officer is familiar with the contents thereof.

16.    In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 151 of the New York Debtor and Secured Creditor Law) and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (such term to mean and include any “Event of Default” as defined in the Credit Agreement), each Secured Creditor is hereby authorized, at any time or from time to time, without notice to any Guarantor or to any other Person, any such notice being expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Secured Creditor to or for the credit or the account of such Guarantor, against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of such Guarantor to such Secured Creditor under this Guaranty, irrespective of whether or not such Secured Creditor shall have made any demand hereunder and although said obligations, liabilities, deposits or claims, or any of them, shall be contingent or unmatured.

17.    Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including email or facsimile communication) and mailed, emailed, faxed or delivered: if to any Guarantor, at c/o General Maritime Corporation, as agent, 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx, 00000-0000, with copies to Xxxxxx Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxxxx LLP, 0000 Xxxxxx xx xxx Xxxxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, Attention: Xxxxxxx Xxxx, Esq., Telephone No.: (000) 000-0000, Facsimile No.: (000) 000-0000, Email: xxxxx@xxxxxxxxxxx.xxx and Xxxxxxxx and Xxxxx LLP, 000 Xxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000, Attention: Xxxxxxxx Xxxx, Telephone No.: (000) 000-0000.

All such notices and communications shall, (i) when mailed, be effective three Business Days after being deposited in the mails, prepaid and properly addressed for delivery, (ii) when sent by overnight courier, be effective one Business Day after delivery to the overnight courier prepaid and properly addressed for delivery on such next Business Day, or (iii) when sent by email or facsimile, be effective when sent by email or facsimile, except that notices and communications to the Administrative Agent or any Guarantor shall not be effective until received by the Administrative Agent or such Guarantor, as the case may be.

18.    If any claim is ever made upon any Secured Creditor for repayment or recovery of any amount or amounts received in payment or on account of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and any of the aforesaid payees repays all or part of said amount by reason of (i) any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body having jurisdiction over such payee or any of its property or (ii) any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected by such payee with any such claimant (including, without limitation, the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party) then and in such event each Guarantor agrees that any such judgment, decree,

9

order, settlement or compromise shall be binding upon such Guarantor, notwithstanding any revocation hereof or the cancellation of any Note or any other instrument evidencing any liability of the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party, and such Guarantor shall be and remain liable to the aforesaid payees hereunder for the amount so repaid or recovered to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been received by any such payee.

19.    (a) THIS GUARANTY AND THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER SHALL BE, EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN THE COLLATERAL VESSEL MORTGAGES AND THE SECONDARY COLLATERAL VESSEL MORTGAGES, CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND BE GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAWS RULES (OTHER THAN TITLE 14 OF ARTICLE 5 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW). Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Guaranty or any other Credit Document to which any Guarantor is a party may, in the case of any Secured Creditor, and shall, in the case of any Guarantor, be brought in the courts of the State of New York or of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York in each case which are located in the City of New York, and, by execution and delivery of this Guaranty, each Guarantor hereby irrevocably accepts for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, the jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts. Each Guarantor hereby further irrevocably waives (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) any claim that any such court lacks personal jurisdiction over such Guarantor, and agrees not to plead or claim in any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Guaranty or any other Credit Document to which such Guarantor is a party brought in any of the aforesaid courts that any such court lacks personal jurisdiction over such Guarantor. Each Guarantor further irrevocably consents to the service of process out of any of the aforementioned courts in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of copies thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to such Guarantor at its address set forth in Section 17 hereof, such service to become effective 30 days after such mailing. Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) any objection to such service of process and further irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any action or proceeding commenced hereunder or under any other Credit Document to which such Guarantor is a party that such service of process was in any way invalid or ineffective. Nothing herein shall affect the right of any of the Secured Creditors to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against each Guarantor in any other jurisdiction.

(b)     Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any of the aforesaid actions or proceedings arising out of or in connection with this Guaranty or any other Credit Document to which such Guarantor is a party brought in the courts referred to in clause (a) above and hereby further irrevocably waives (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that such action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

(c)      EACH GUARANTOR AND EACH SECURED CREDITOR (BY ITS ACCEPTANCE OF THE BENEFITS OF THIS GUARANTY) HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR

10

COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS GUARANTY, THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS TO WHICH SUCH GUARANTOR IS A PARTY OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

20.   In the event that all of the capital stock or other equity interests of one or more Guarantors is sold or otherwise disposed of or liquidated in compliance with the requirements of Section 9.02 of the Credit Agreement (or such sale, other disposition, or liquidation has been approved in writing by the Required Lenders (or all the Lenders if required by Section 12.12 of the Credit Agreement)) and the proceeds of such sale, disposition or liquidation are applied in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, to the extent applicable, such Guarantor shall upon consummation of such sale or other disposition (except to the extent that such sale or disposition is to the Parent or any Subsidiary thereof) be released from this Guaranty automatically and without further action and this Guaranty shall, as to each such Guarantor or Guarantors, terminate, and have no further force or effect (it being understood and agreed that the sale of one or more Persons that own, directly or indirectly, all of the capital stock or other equity interests of any Guarantor shall be deemed to be a sale of such Guarantor for the purposes of this Section 20).

21.   At any time a payment in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is made under this Guaranty, the right of contribution of each Guarantor against each other Guarantor shall be determined as provided in the immediately following sentence, with the right of contribution of each Guarantor to be revised and restated as of each date on which a payment (a “Relevant Payment”) is made on the Guaranteed Obligations under this Guaranty. At any time that a Relevant Payment is made by a Guarantor that results in the aggregate payments made by such Guarantor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations to and including the date of the Relevant Payment exceeding such Guarantor’s Contribution Percentage (as defined below) of the aggregate payments made by all Guarantors in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations to and including the date of the Relevant Payment (such excess, the “Aggregate Excess Amount”), each such Guarantor shall have a right of contribution against each other Guarantor who has made payments in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations to and including the date of the Relevant Payment in an aggregate amount less than such other Guarantor’s Contribution Percentage of the aggregate payments made to and including the date of the Relevant Payment by all Guarantors in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations (the aggregate amount of such deficit, the “Aggregate Deficit Amount”) in an amount equal to (x) a fraction the numerator of which is the Aggregate Excess Amount of such Guarantor and the denominator of which is the Aggregate Excess Amount of all Guarantors multiplied by (y) the Aggregate Deficit Amount of such other Guarantor. A Guarantor’s right of contribution pursuant to the preceding sentences shall arise at the time of each computation, subject to adjustment to the time of each computation; provided that no Guarantor may take any action to enforce such right until the Guaranteed Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full in cash, it being expressly recognized and agreed by all parties hereto that any Guarantor’s right of contribution arising pursuant to this Section 21 against any other Guarantor shall be expressly junior and subordinate to such other Guarantor’s obligations and liabilities in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations and any other obligations owing under this Guaranty. As used in this Section 21: (i) each Guarantor’s “Contribution Percentage” shall mean the percentage obtained by dividing (x) the Adjusted Net Worth (as defined below) of such Guarantor by (y) the aggregate Adjusted Net Worth of all Guarantors; (ii) the “Adjusted Net Worth” of each Guarantor shall mean the greater of (x) the Net Worth (as defined below) of such

11

Guarantor and (y) zero; and (iii) the “Net Worth” of each Guarantor shall mean the amount by which the fair saleable value of such Guarantor’s assets on the date of any Relevant Payment exceeds its existing debts and other liabilities (including, without limitation, contingent liabilities, but without giving effect to any Guaranteed Obligations arising under this Guaranty or any guaranteed obligations arising under any guaranty of the Senior Notes) on such date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, any Guarantor that is released from this Guaranty pursuant to Section 20 hereof shall thereafter have no contribution obligations, or rights, pursuant to this Section 21. All parties hereto recognize and agree that, except for any right of contribution arising pursuant to this Section 21, each Guarantor who makes any payment in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations shall have no right of contribution or subrogation against any other Guarantor in respect of such payment until all of the Guaranteed Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full in cash. Each of the Guarantors recognizes and acknowledges that the rights to contribution arising hereunder shall constitute an asset in favor of the party entitled to such contribution. In this connection, each Guarantor has the right to waive its contribution right against any Guarantor to the extent that after giving effect to such waiver such Guarantor would remain solvent, in the determination of the Required Lenders.

22.   Each Guarantor and each Secured Creditor (by its acceptance of the benefits of this Guaranty) hereby confirms that it is its intention that this Guaranty not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of the Bankruptcy Code, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar Federal or state law. To effectuate the foregoing intention, each Guarantor and each Secured Creditor (by its acceptance of the benefits of this Guaranty) hereby irrevocably agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed by such Guarantor shall be limited to such amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other (contingent or otherwise) liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws and after giving effect to any rights to contribution pursuant to any agreement providing for an equitable contribution among such Guarantor and the other Guarantors, result in the Guaranteed Obligations of such Guarantor in respect of such maximum amount not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

23.   This Guaranty may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original (including if delivered by facsimile or electronic transmission), but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. A set of counterparts executed by all the parties hereto shall be lodged with the Guarantors and the Administrative Agent.

24.   (a) All payments made by any Guarantor hereunder will be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense, will be made in the currency or currencies in which the respective Guaranteed Obligations are then due and payable and will be made on the same basis as payments are made by the Borrower under Sections 4.03 and 4.04 of the Credit Agreement.

(b)    The Guarantors’ obligations hereunder to make payments in the respective currency or currencies in which the respective Guaranteed Obligations are required to be paid (such currency being herein called the “Obligation Currency”) shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed in or converted into any currency other than the Obligation Currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery results in the effective receipt by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the respective

12

other Secured Creditor of the full amount of the Obligation Currency expressed to be payable to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such other Secured Creditor under this Guaranty. If for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against any Guarantor in any court or in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into or from any currency other than the Obligation Currency (such other currency being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due in the Obligation Currency, the conversion shall be made, at the rate of exchange (quoted by the Administrative Agent, determined, in each case, as of the date immediately preceding the day on which the judgment is given (such Business Day being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency Conversion Date”).

(c)    If there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Currency Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount due, the Guarantors jointly and severally covenant and agree to pay, or cause to be paid, such additional amounts, if any (but in any event not a lesser amount), as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the Obligation Currency which could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial award at the rate or exchange prevailing on the Judgment Currency Conversion Date.

(d)    For purposes of determining the relevant currency equivalent or any other rate of exchange for this Section 24, such amounts shall include any premium and costs payable in connection with the purchase of the Obligation Currency.

25.   It is understood and agreed that any Subsidiary of the Borrower that is required to execute a counterpart of this Guaranty after the date hereof pursuant to the Credit Agreement shall automatically become a Guarantor hereunder by executing a counterpart hereof or a Joinder Agreement, in the form of Exhibit P of the Credit Agreement, and delivering the same to the Administrative Agent.

26.   All monies collected by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be applied in the manner provided in the Intercreditor Agreement and the Secondary Intercreditor Agreement.

11

waived by each Pledgor (to the extent permitted by law)), for cash, on credit or for other property, for immediate or future delivery without any assumption of credit risk, and for such price or prices and on such terms as the Pledgee in its absolute discretion may determine, provided that at least 10 days’ written notice of the time and place of any such sale shall be given to the Pledgors. The Pledgee shall not be obligated to make any such sale of Collateral regardless of whether any such notice of sale has theretofore been given. Each Pledgor hereby waives and releases to the fullest extent permitted by law any right or equity of redemption with respect to the Collateral, whether before or after sale hereunder, and all rights, if any, of marshalling the Collateral and any other security for the Obligations or otherwise.

Each and every right, power and remedy of the Pledgee provided for in this Agreement or in any other Credit Document, or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other such right, power or remedy. The exercise or beginning of the exercise by the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor of any one or more of the rights, powers or remedies provided for in this Agreement or any other Credit Document or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor of all such other rights, powers or remedies, and no failure or delay on the part of the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor to exercise any such right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof. No notice to or demand on any Pledgor in any case shall entitle it to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of any of the rights of the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. The Secured Creditors agree that this Agreement may be enforced only by the action of the Pledgee, in each case acting upon the instructions of the Required Lenders and that no other Secured Creditor shall have any right individually to seek to enforce or to enforce this Agreement or to realize upon the security to be granted hereby, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised by the Pledgee for the benefit of the Secured Creditors upon the terms of this Agreement.

(b) For purposes of this Agreement, (x) “Pro Rata Share” shall mean, when calculating a Secured Creditor’s portion of any distribution or amount, that amount (expressed as a percentage) equal to a fraction the numerator of which is the then unpaid amount of such Secured Creditor’s Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, and the denominator of which is the then outstanding amount of all Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, (y) “Primary Obligations” shall mean all principal of, and interest on, all Loans and all fees, costs and expenses incurred under the Credit Agreement with respect thereto and (z) “Secondary Obligations” shall mean all Obligations other than Primary Obligations.

(c) When payments to Secured Creditors are based upon their respective Pro Rata Shares, the amounts received by such Secured Creditors hereunder shall be applied (for purposes of making determinations under this Section 9 only) (i) first, to their Primary Obligations and (ii) second, to their Secondary Obligations. If any payment to any Secured Creditor of its Pro Rata Share of any distribution would result in overpayment to such Secured Creditor, such excess amount shall instead be distributed in respect of the unpaid Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, of the other Secured Creditors, with each Secured Creditor whose Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, have not been paid in full to receive an amount equal to such excess amount multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the unpaid Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, of such Secured Creditor and the denominator of which is the unpaid Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, of all Secured Creditors entitled to such distribution.

(d) All payments required to be made hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement for the account of the Secured Creditors.

(e) For purposes of applying payments received in accordance with this Section 9, the Pledgee shall be entitled to rely upon the Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement for a

13

determination (which the Administrative Agent and the Secured Creditors agree (or shall agree) to provide upon request of the Pledgee) of the outstanding Primary Obligations and Secondary Obligations owed to the Secured Creditors. Unless it has actual knowledge (including by way of written notice from a Secured Creditor) to the contrary, the Administrative Agent, in furnishing information pursuant to the preceding sentence, and the Pledgee, in acting hereunder, shall be entitled to assume that no Secondary Obligations are outstanding. .

(f) It is understood and agreed that each Pledgor shall remain jointly and severally liable to the extent of any deficiency between the amount of the proceeds of the Collateral pledged by it hereunder and the aggregate amount of the Obligations of such Pledgor.

10. PURCHASERS OF COLLATERAL. Upon any sale of the Collateral by the Pledgee hereunder (whether by virtue of the power of sale herein granted, pursuant to judicial process or otherwise), the receipt of the Pledgee or the officer making the sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold, and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obligated to see to the application of any part of the purchase money paid over to the Pledgee or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication or nonapplication thereof.

11. INDEMNITY. Each Pledgor jointly and severally agrees (i) to indemnify and hold harmless the Pledgee and each other Secured Creditor and their respective successors, assigns, employees, agents and affiliates (individually an “Indemnitee,” and collectively the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all claims, demands, losses, judgments and liabilities (including liabilities for penalties) of whatsoever kind or nature, and (ii) to reimburse each Indemnitee for all reasonable costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, in each case growing out of or resulting from this Agreement or the exercise by any Indemnitee of any right or remedy granted to it hereunder or under any other Credit Document (but excluding any claims, demands, losses, judgments and liabilities or expenses to the extent incurred by reason of gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision)). In no event shall the Pledgee be liable, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on its part, for any matter or thing in connection with this Agreement other than to account for monies actually received by it in accordance with the terms hereof. If and to the extent that the obligations of any Pledgor under this Section 11 are unenforceable for any reason, such Pledgor hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of such obligations which is permissible under applicable law.

12. PLEDGEE NOT A PARTNER OR LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY MEMBER. (a) Nothing herein shall be construed to make the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor liable as a member of any limited liability company or as a partner of any partnership and neither the Pledgee nor any other Secured Creditor by virtue of this Agreement or otherwise (except as referred to in the following sentence) shall have any of the duties, obligations or liabilities of a member of any limited liability company or partnership. The parties hereto expressly agree that, unless the Pledgee shall become the absolute owner of Collateral consisting of a Limited Liability Company Interest or Partnership Interest pursuant hereto, this Agreement shall not be construed as creating a partnership or joint venture among the Pledgee, any other Secured Creditor, any Pledgor and/or any other Person.

14

(b) Except as provided in the last sentence of paragraph (a) of this Section 12, the Pledgee, by accepting this Agreement, did not intend to become a member of any limited liability company or a partner of any partnership or otherwise be deemed to be a co-venturer with respect to any Pledgor, any limited liability company, partnership and/or any other Person either before or after an Event of Default shall have occurred. The Pledgee shall have only those powers set forth herein and the Secured Creditors shall assume none of the duties, obligations or liabilities of a member of any limited liability company or as a partner of any partnership or any Pledgor except as provided in the last sentence of paragraph (a) of this Section 12.

(c) The Pledgee and the other Secured Creditors shall not be obligated to perform or discharge any obligation of any Pledgor as a result of the pledge hereby effected.

(d) The acceptance by the Pledgee of this Agreement, with all the rights, powers, privileges and authority so created, shall not at any time or in any event obligate the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor to appear in or defend any action or proceeding relating to the Collateral to which it is not a party, or to take any action hereunder or thereunder, or to expend any money or incur any expenses or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability under the Collateral.

13. FURTHER ASSURANCES; POWER-OF-ATTORNEY. (a) Each Pledgor agrees that it will join with the Pledgee in executing (to the extent applicable) and, at such Pledgor’s own expense, file and refile under the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law such financing statements, continuation statements and other documents in such offices as the Pledgee may reasonably require and wherever required by law in order to perfect and preserve the Pledgee’s security interest in the Collateral and hereby authorizes the Pledgee to file financing statements (including, without limitation, ‘all assets’ financing statements) and amendments thereto relative to all or any part of the Collateral without the signature of such Pledgor where permitted by law, and agrees to do such further acts and things and to execute and deliver to the Pledgee such additional conveyances, assignments, agreements and instruments as the Pledgee may reasonably require to carry into effect the purposes of this Agreement or to further assure and confirm unto the Pledgee its rights, powers and remedies hereunder.

(b) Each Pledgor hereby appoints the Pledgee such Pledgor’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Pledgor and in the name of such Pledgor or otherwise, to act from time to time solely after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default in the Pledgee’s reasonable discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument which the Pledgee may deem reasonably necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement.

14. THE PLEDGEE AS AGENT. The Pledgee will hold in accordance with this Agreement all items of the Collateral at any time received under this Agreement. It is expressly understood and agreed by each Secured Creditor that by accepting the benefits of this Agreement each such Secured Creditor acknowledges and agrees that the obligations of the Pledgee as holder of the Collateral and interests therein and with respect to the disposition thereof, and otherwise under this Agreement, are only those expressly set forth in this Agreement, in the Intercreditor Agreement, and in Section 11 of the Credit Agreement. The Pledgee shall act hereunder on the terms and conditions set forth herein, in Section 11 of the Credit Agreement and in the Intercreditor Agreement.

15

15. TRANSFER BY THE PLEDGORS. No Pledgor will sell or otherwise dispose of, grant any option with respect to, or mortgage, pledge or otherwise encumber any of the Collateral or any interest therein (except as may be permitted in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and any other Credit Document).

16. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF THE PLEDGORS. Each Pledgor represents, warrants and covenants that:

(i) it is the legal, beneficial and record owner of, and has good and marketable title to, all Collateral pledged by such Pledgor hereunder and that it has sufficient interest in all Collateral pledged by such Pledgor hereunder in which a security interest is purported to be created hereunder for such security interest to attach (subject, in each case, to no pledge, lien, mortgage, hypothecation, security interest, charge, option, Adverse Claim or other encumbrance whatsoever, except the liens and security interests created by this Agreement and Permitted Liens);

(ii) it has the corporate, limited partnership or limited liability company power and authority, as the case may be, to pledge all the Collateral pledged by it pursuant to this Agreement;

(iii) this Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Pledgor and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Pledgor enforceable against such Pledgor in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that the enforceability hereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws generally affecting creditors’ rights and by equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law);

(iv) except to the extent already obtained or made, or, in the case of any filings or recordings of the Security Documents (other than the Collateral Vessel Mortgages) executed on or before the Restatement Effective Date, to be made within 10 days of the Restatement Effective Date, no consent of any other party (including, without limitation, any stockholder, partner, member or creditor of such Pledgor or any of its Subsidiaries) and no consent, license, permit, approval or authorization of, exemption by, notice or report to, or registration, filing or declaration with, any governmental authority is required to be obtained by such Pledgor in connection with (a) the execution, delivery or performance by such Pledgor of this Agreement, (b) the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of this Agreement, (c) the perfection or enforceability of the Pledgee’s security interest in the Collateral pledged by such Pledgor hereunder or (d) except for compliance with or as may be required by applicable securities laws, the exercise by the Pledgee of any of its rights or remedies provided herein;

(v) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement will not violate any provision of any applicable law or regulation or of any order, judgment, writ, award or decree of any court, arbitrator or governmental authority, U.S. or non-U.S., applicable to such Pledgor, or of the certificate or articles of incorporation, certificate of formation, operating agreement, limited liability company agreement, partnership agreement or by-laws of such Pledgor, as applicable, or of any securities issued by such Pledgor or any of its Subsidiaries,

16

or of any mortgage, deed of trust, indenture, lease, loan agreement, credit agreement or other material contract, agreement or instrument or undertaking to which such Pledgor or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or which purports to be binding upon such Pledgor or any of its Subsidiaries or upon any of their respective assets and will not result in the creation or imposition of (or the obligation to create or impose) any lien or encumbrance on any of the assets of such Pledgor or any of its Subsidiaries which are Credit Parties, except as contemplated by this Agreement or the Credit Agreement;

(vi) all of the Collateral has been duly and validly issued and acquired, is fully paid and non-assessable (if applicable) and is subject to no options to purchase or similar rights;

(vii) the pledge and collateral assignment to, and possession by, the Pledgee of the Collateral pledged by such Pledgor hereunder consisting of Certificated Securities pursuant to this Agreement creates a valid and perfected first priority security interest in such Certificated Securities, and the proceeds thereof, subject to no prior Lien or to any agreement purporting to grant to any third party a Lien on the property or assets of such Pledgor which would include the Certificated Securities, except for Permitted Liens, and the Pledgee is entitled to all the rights, priorities and benefits afforded by the UCC or other relevant law as enacted in any relevant jurisdiction to perfect security interests in respect of such Collateral; and;

(viii) “control” (as defined in Section 8-106 of the UCC) has been obtained by the Pledgee over all Collateral pledged by such Pledgor hereunder consisting of Stock with respect to which such “control” may be obtained pursuant to Section 8-106 of the UCC, and “control” (as defined in Section 9-104 of the UCC) has been obtained by the Pledgee over all Concentration Accounts with respect to which such “control” may be obtained pursuant to Section 9-104 of the UCC.

17. JURISDICTION OF ORGANIZATION; CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICE; RECORDS. The jurisdiction of organization of each Pledgor is specified in Annex A hereto. The chief executive office of each Pledgor is located at the address specified in Annex F hereto. Each Pledgor will not change the jurisdiction of its organization or move its chief executive office except to such new jurisdiction or location as such Pledgor may establish in accordance with the last sentence of this Section 17. The originals of all documents in the possession of such Pledgor evidencing all Collateral, including but not limited to all Limited Liability Company Interests and Partnership Interests (to the extent not certificated), and the only original books of account and records of such Pledgor relating thereto are, and will continue to be, kept at such chief executive office as specified in Annex F hereto, or at such new locations as such Pledgor may establish in accordance with the last sentence of this Section 17. All Limited Liability Company Interests and Partnership Interests (to the extent not certificated) are, and will continue to be, maintained at, and

17

controlled and directed (including, without limitation, for general accounting purposes) from, such chief executive office as specified in Annex F hereto, or such new locations as such Pledgor may establish in accordance with the last sentence of this Section 17. No Pledgor shall establish a new jurisdiction of organization or a new location for such chief executive offices until (i) it shall have given to the Pledgee not less than 15 days’ prior written notice of its intention so to do, providing clear details of such new jurisdiction of organization or new location, as the case may be, and providing such other information in connection therewith as the Pledgee may reasonably request, and (ii) with respect to such new jurisdiction of organization or new location, as the case may be, it shall have taken all action, reasonably satisfactory to the Pledgee (and, to the extent applicable, in accordance with Section 3.2 hereof), to maintain the security interest of the Pledgee in the Collateral intended to be granted hereby at all times fully perfected and in full force and effect. Promptly after establishing a new jurisdiction of organization or new location for such chief executive offices in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, the respective Pledgor shall deliver to the Pledgee a supplement to Annex A hereto or Annex F hereto, as the case may be, so as to cause such Annex A or Annex F, as the case may be, to be complete and accurate.

18. PLEDGORS’ OBLIGATIONS ABSOLUTE, ETC. The obligations of each Pledgor under this Agreement shall be absolute and unconditional and shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be released, suspended, discharged, terminated or otherwise affected by, any circumstance or occurrence whatsoever, including, without limitation: (i) any renewal, extension, amendment or modification of or addition or supplement to or deletion from this Agreement and any other Credit Document or any other instrument or agreement referred to therein, or any assignment or transfer of any thereof; (ii) any waiver, consent, extension, indulgence or other action or inaction under or in respect of any such agreement or instrument including, without limitation, this Agreement; (iii) any furnishing of any additional security to the Pledgee or its assignee or any acceptance thereof or any release of any security by the Pledgee or its assignee; (iv) any limitation on any party’s liability or obligations under any such instrument or agreement or any invalidity or unenforceability, in whole or in part, of any such instrument or agreement or any term thereof; or (v) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition, adjustment, dissolution, liquidation or other like proceeding relating to any Pledgor or any Subsidiary of any Pledgor, or any action taken with respect to this Agreement by any trustee or receiver, or by any court, in any such proceeding, whether or not such Pledgor shall have notice or knowledge of any of the foregoing (it being understood and agreed that the enforcement hereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, restructuring, moratorium or other similar laws generally affecting creditors’ rights and by equitable principles).

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in any such event the Pledgee, in its sole and absolute discretion (i) may proceed to make such private sale notwithstanding that a registration statement for the purpose of registering such Collateral or part thereof shall have been filed under such Securities Act, (ii) may approach and negotiate with a single

18

possible purchaser to effect such sale, and (iii) may restrict such sale to a purchaser who will represent and agree that such purchaser is purchasing for its own account, for investment, and not with a view to the distribution or sale of such Collateral or part thereof. In the event of any such sale, the Pledgee shall incur no responsibility or liability for selling all or any part of the Collateral at a price which the Pledgee, in its sole and absolute discretion, in good xxxxx xxxxx reasonable under the circumstances, notwithstanding the possibility that a substantially higher price might be realized if the sale were deferred until after registration as aforesaid.

20. TERMINATION; RELEASE. (a) After the Termination Date, this Agreement and the security interest created hereby shall terminate (provided that all indemnities set forth herein including, without limitation, in Section 11 hereof shall survive any such termination), and the Pledgee, at the request and expense of any Pledgor, will as promptly as practicable execute and deliver to such Pledgor a proper instrument or instruments acknowledging the satisfaction and termination of this Agreement, and will duly assign, transfer and deliver to such Pledgor (without recourse and without any representation or warranty) such of the Collateral as has not theretofore been sold or otherwise applied or released pursuant to this Agreement or any other Credit Document, together with any monies at the time held by the Pledgee or any of its sub-agents hereunder. As used in this Agreement, “Termination Date” shall mean the date upon which the Loans under the Credit Agreement have been paid in full, no Note under the Credit Agreement is outstanding and all other Obligations then due and payable have been paid in full.

(c) At any time that a Pledgor desires to close a Concentration Account, it shall, with the consent of the Pledgee, redirect the contents of such Concentration Account to such other Concentration Account as the Pledgee shall specify to such Pledgor, and all future deposits shall be required to be made in such specified Concentration Account.

(d) At any time that a Pledgor desires that the Pledgee assign, transfer and deliver Collateral (and releases therefor) as provided in Section 20(a) or (b) hereof, it shall deliver to the Pledgee a certificate signed by a principal executive officer of such Pledgor stating that the release of the respective Collateral is permitted pursuant to such Section 20(a) or (b).

(e) The Pledgee shall have no liability whatsoever to any other Secured Creditor as a result of any release of Collateral by it in accordance with this Section 20.

21. NOTICES, ETC. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including telexed, telegraphic, telecopier or other electronic communication) and mailed, faxed or delivered: if to any Pledgor, at

24. RECOURSE.

W I T N E S S E T H :

WHEREAS, General Maritime Subsidiary II Corporation, as borrower, General Maritime Corporation, as a guarantor, General Maritime Subsidiary Corporation, as a guarantor, Arlington Tankers Ltd., as a guarantor, the various lenders from time to time party thereto and the First Priority Agent have entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of May 17, 2012 (as amended, modified, restated and/or supplemented from time to time, the “First Priority Credit Agreement”);

WHEREAS, General Maritime Subsidiary Corporation, as borrower, General Maritime Corporation, as a guarantor, General Maritime Subsidiary II Corporation, as a guarantor, Arlington Tankers Ltd., as a guarantor, the various lenders from time to time party thereto and the Second Priority Agent have entered into a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of May 17, 2012 (as amended, modified, restated and/or supplemented from time to time, the “Second Priority Credit Agreement”);

WHEREAS, the Assignor, various other assignors and the First Priority Agent have entered into an Amended and Restated Pledge Agreement, dated as of May 17, 2012 (as further amended, amended and restated, modified or supplemented from time to time, including any joinder agreements thereto, the “Pledge Agreement”), under which, among other things, in order to secure the payment of the First Priority Obligations, the Assignor has granted a first priority security interest to the First Priority Agent for the benefit of the First Priority Creditors in all of the right, title and interest of the Assignor in and into any and all deposit accounts (as

defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC) and in all monies, securities, instruments and other investments deposited therein from time to time (collectively, herein called the “Collateral”);

WHEREAS, the Assignor, the First Priority Agent and the Deposit Account Bank are party to an Amended and Restated Control Agreement Regarding Deposit Accounts with respect to the Deposit Accounts (the “Original Control Agreement”) and wish to amend and restate the Original Control Agreement in order to amend certain other provisions contained therein;

WHEREAS, the Assignor, various other assignors and the Second Priority Agent have entered into an Amended and Restated Secondary Pledge Agreement, dated as of May 17, 2012 (as further amended, amended and restated, modified or supplemented from time to time, including any joinder agreements thereto, the “Second Priority Pledge Agreement”), under which, among other things, in order to secure the payment of the Second Priority Obligations, the Assignor has granted a second priority security interest to the Second Priority Agent for the benefit of the Second Priority Creditors in all of the right, title and interest of the Assignor in the Collateral;

WHEREAS, the parties hereto have entered into an Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of May 17, 2012, by and among the other parties from time to time party thereto governing the relative rights and priorities of the First Priority Creditors and the Second Priority Creditors (together with the First Priority Creditors, the “Secured Creditors”) with respect to the Collateral (as the same may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Intercreditor Agreement”); and

WHEREAS, the Assignor desires that the Deposit Account Bank enter into this Agreement in order to establish “control” (as defined in Section 9-104 of the UCC) in each Deposit Account at any time or from time to time maintained with the Deposit Account Bank, and to provide for the rights of the parties under this Agreement with respect to such Deposit Accounts.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual promises and agreements contained herein, and for other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1.             Assignor’s Dealings with Deposit Accounts; Notice of Exclusive Control. The Deposit Account Bank hereby agrees to comply with instructions of the Collateral Agent directing disposition of the funds in the Deposit Account without further consent of the Assignor. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, until the Deposit Account Bank shall have received from the Collateral Agent a Notice of Exclusive Control (as defined below), the Assignor shall be entitled to present items drawn on and otherwise to withdraw or direct the disposition of funds from the Deposit Accounts and give instructions in respect of the Deposit Accounts; provided, however, that the Assignor may not, and the Deposit Account Bank agrees that it shall not permit the Assignor to, without the Collateral Agent’s prior written consent, close any Deposit Account. If upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (as defined in the Pledge Agreement) the Collateral Agent shall give to the Deposit Account Bank a notice of the Collateral Agent’s exclusive control of the Deposit Accounts, which notice

2

states that it is a “Notice of Exclusive Control” (a “Notice of Exclusive Control”), only the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to withdraw funds from the Deposit Accounts, to give any instructions in respect of the Deposit Accounts and any funds held therein or credited thereto or otherwise to deal with the Deposit Accounts.

2.             Collateral Agent’s Right to Give Instructions as to Deposit Accounts. (a) Notwithstanding the foregoing or any separate agreement that the Assignor may have with the Deposit Account Bank, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default for purposes of this Agreement, at any time to give the Deposit Account Bank instructions as to the withdrawal or disposition of any funds from time to time credited to any Deposit Account, or as to any other matters relating to any Deposit Account or any other Collateral, without further consent from the Assignor. The Assignor hereby irrevocably authorizes and instructs the Deposit Account Bank, and the Deposit Account Bank hereby agrees, to comply with any such instructions from the Collateral Agent without any further consent from the Assignor. Such instructions may include the giving of stop payment orders for any items being presented to any Deposit Account for payment. The Deposit Account Bank shall be fully entitled to rely on, and shall comply with, such instructions from the Collateral Agent even if such instructions are contrary to any instructions or demands that the Assignor may give to the Deposit Account Bank. In case of any conflict between instructions received by the Deposit Account Bank from the Collateral Agent and the Assignor, the instructions from the Collateral Agent shall prevail.

(b)           It is understood and agreed that the Deposit Account Bank’s duty to comply with instructions from the Collateral Agent regarding the Deposit Accounts is absolute, and the Deposit Account Bank shall be under no duty or obligation, nor shall it have the authority, to inquire or determine whether or not such instructions are in accordance with the Pledge Agreement, the Second Priority Pledge Agreement or any other Credit Document (as defined in the First Priority Credit Agreement), nor seek confirmation thereof from the Assignor or any other Person.

3.             Assignor’s Exculpation and Indemnification of Depository Bank. The Assignor hereby irrevocably authorizes and instructs the Deposit Account Bank to follow instructions from the Collateral Agent regarding the Deposit Accounts even if the result of following such instructions from the Collateral Agent is that the Deposit Account Bank dishonors items presented for payment from any Deposit Account. The Assignor further confirms that the Deposit Account Bank shall have no liability to the Assignor for wrongful dishonor of such items in following such instructions from the Collateral Agent. The Deposit Account Bank shall have no duty to inquire or determine whether the Assignor’s obligations to the Collateral Agent are in default or whether the Collateral Agent is entitled, under any separate agreement between the Assignor and the Collateral Agent, to give any such instructions. The Assignor further agrees to be responsible for the Deposit Account Bank’s customary charges and to indemnify the Deposit Account Bank from and to hold the Deposit Account Bank harmless against any loss, cost or expense that the Deposit Account Bank may sustain or incur in acting upon instructions which the Deposit Account Bank believes in good faith to be instructions from the Collateral Agent excluding any loss, cost or expense to the extent incurred as a direct result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Deposit Account Bank.

3

4.             Subordination of Security Interests; Deposit Account Bank’s Recourse to Deposit Accounts. The Deposit Account Bank hereby subordinates any claims and security interests it may have against, or with respect to, any Deposit Account at any time established or maintained with it by the Assignor (including any amounts, investments, instruments or other Collateral from time to time on deposit therein) to the security interests of the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Creditors) therein, and agrees that no amounts shall be charged by it to, or withheld or set-off or otherwise recouped by it from, any Deposit Account of the Assignor or any amounts, investments, instruments or other Collateral from time to time on deposit therein; provided that the Deposit Account Bank may, however, from time to time debit the Deposit Accounts for any of its customary charges in maintaining the Deposit Accounts or for reimbursement for the reversal of any provisional credits granted by the Deposit Account Bank to any Deposit Account, to the extent, in each case, that the Assignor has not separately paid or reimbursed the Deposit Account Bank therefor.

5.             Representations, Warranties and Covenants of Deposit Account Bank. The Deposit Account Bank represents and warrants to each of the First Priority Agent and the Second Priority Agent:

(a)           The Deposit Account Bank constitutes a “bank” (as defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC), that the jurisdiction (determined in accordance with Section 9-304 of the UCC) of the Deposit Account Bank for purposes of each Deposit Account maintained by the Assignor with the Deposit Account Bank shall be New York.

(b)           The Deposit Account Bank shall not permit any Assignor to establish any demand, time, savings, passbook or other account with it which does not constitute a “deposit account” (as defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC).

(c)           The account agreements between the Deposit Account Bank and the Assignor relating to the establishment and general operation of the Deposit Accounts provide, whether specifically or generally, that the laws of New York govern secured transactions relating to the Deposit Accounts and that the Deposit Account Bank’s “jurisdiction” for purposes of Section 9- 304 of the UCC in respect of the Deposit Accounts is New York. The Deposit Account Bank will not, without the Collateral Agent’s prior written consent, amend any such account agreement so that the Deposit Account Bank’s jurisdiction for purposes of Section 9-304 of the UCC is other than a jurisdiction permitted pursuant to preceding clause (a). All account agreements in respect of each Deposit Account in existence on the date hereof are listed on Annex A hereto and copies of all such account agreements have been furnished to each of the First Priority Agent and the Second Priority Agent. The Deposit Account Bank will promptly furnish to the Collateral Agent a copy of the account agreement for each Deposit Account hereafter established by the Deposit Account Bank for the Assignor.

(d)           The Deposit Account Bank has not entered and will not enter, into any agreement with any other Person by which the Deposit Account Bank is obligated to comply with instructions from such other Person as to the disposition of funds from any Deposit Account or other dealings with any Deposit Account or other of the Collateral.

4

(e)           On the date hereof the Deposit Account Bank maintains no Deposit Accounts for the Assignor other than the Deposit Accounts specifically identified in Annex A hereto.

(f)            Any items or funds received by the Deposit Account Bank for the Assignor’s account will be credited to said Deposit Accounts specified in paragraph (e) above or to any other Deposit Accounts hereafter established by the Deposit Account Bank for the Assignor in accordance with this Agreement.

(g)           The Deposit Account Bank will promptly notify each of the First Priority Agent and the Second Priority Agent of each Deposit Account hereafter established by the Deposit Account Bank for the Assignor (which notice shall specify the account number of such Deposit Account and the location at which the Deposit Account is maintained), and each such new Deposit Account shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement in all respects.

6.             Deposit Account Statements and Information. The Deposit Account Bank agrees, and is hereby authorized and instructed by the Assignor, to furnish to the Collateral Agent, at its address indicated below, copies of all account statements and other information relating to each Deposit Account that the Deposit Account Bank sends to the Assignor and to disclose to the First Priority Agent and/or the Second Priority Agent all information requested by each of the First Priority Agent and the Second Priority Agent, as the case may be, regarding any Deposit Account.

7.             Conflicting Agreements. This Agreement shall have control over any conflicting agreement between the Deposit Account Bank and the Assignor.

8.             Merger or Consolidation of Deposit Account Bank. Without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, any bank into which the Deposit Account Bank may be merged or with which it may be consolidated, or any bank resulting from any merger to which the Deposit Account Bank shall be a party, shall be the successor of the Deposit Account Bank hereunder and shall be bound by all provisions hereof which are binding upon the Deposit Account Bank and shall be deemed to affirm as to itself all representations and warranties of the Deposit Account Bank contained herein.

(ii) with respect to an Uncertificated Security (other than an Uncertificated Security credited on the books of a Clearing Corporation), the Pledgor shall cause the issuer of such Uncertificated Security (or, in the case of an issuer that is not a Subsidiary of the Pledgor,

6

(iv) with respect to a Partnership Interest or a Limited Liability Company Interest (other than a Partnership Interest or Limited Liability Interest credited on the books of a Clearing Corporation), (1) if such Partnership Interest or Limited Liability Company Interest is represented by a certificate and is a Security for purposes of the UCC, the procedure set forth in Section 3.2(a)(i) hereof, and (2) if such Partnership Interest or Limited Liability Company Interest is not represented by a certificate or is not a Security for purposes of the UCC, the procedure set forth in Section 3.2(a)(ii) hereof; and

(ii) the Pledgor shall from time to time cause appropriate financing statements (on Form UCC-1 or other appropriate form) under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the various relevant states, covering all Collateral hereunder (with the form of such financing

7

statements to be satisfactory to the Pledgee), to be filed in the relevant filing offices so that at all times the Pledgee has a security interest in all Collateral which is perfected by the filing of such financing statements (in each case to the maximum extent perfection by filing may be obtained under the laws of the relevant states, including, without limitation, Section 9-312(a) of the UCC).

3.3. Subsequently Acquired Collateral. If the Pledgor shall acquire (by purchase, stock dividend or similar distribution or otherwise) any additional Collateral at any time or from time to time after the date hereof, such Collateral shall automatically (and without any further action being required to be taken) be subject to the pledge and security interests created pursuant to Section 3.1 hereof and, furthermore, the Pledgor will promptly thereafter take (or cause to be taken) all action with respect to such Collateral in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 3.2 hereof, and will promptly thereafter deliver to the Pledgee (i) a certificate executed by a principal executive officer of the Pledgor describing such Collateral and certifying that the same has been duly pledged in favor of the Pledgee (for the benefit of the Secured Creditors) hereunder and (ii) supplements to Annexes A through F hereto as are reasonably necessary to cause such annexes to be complete and accurate at such time.

5. VOTING, ETC., WHILE NO EVENT OF DEFAULT. Unless and until there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default, the Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the Collateral owned by it, and to give consents, waivers or ratifications in respect thereof; provided that, in each case, no vote shall be cast or any consent, waiver or ratification given or any action taken or omitted to be taken which would violate or be inconsistent with any of the terms of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, or which could reasonably be expected to have the effect of impairing the value of the Collateral or any part thereof or the position or interests of the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor in the Collateral unless expressly permitted by the terms of this Agreement or any other Credit Document. All such rights of the Pledgor to vote and to give consents, waivers and ratifications shall cease in case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and Section 7 hereof shall become applicable.

6. DIVIDENDS AND OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS. Unless and until there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default, all cash dividends, cash distributions, cash Proceeds and other cash amounts payable in respect of the Collateral shall be paid to the Pledgor. The Pledgee shall be entitled to receive directly, and to retain as part of the Collateral:

(i) all other or additional stock, notes, limited liability company interests, partnership interests, instruments or other securities or property (including, but not limited to, cash dividends other than as set forth above in the first sentence of this Section 6) paid or distributed by way of dividend or otherwise in respect of the Collateral;

(ii) all other or additional stock, notes, limited liability company interests, partnership interests, instruments or other securities or property (including, but not limited to, cash) paid or distributed in respect of the Collateral by way of stock-split, spin-off, split-up, reclassification, combination of shares or similar rearrangement; and

(iii) all other or additional stock, notes, limited liability company interests, partnership interests, instruments or other securities or property (including, but not limited to, cash) which may be paid in respect of the Collateral by reason of any consolidation, merger, exchange of stock, conveyance of assets, liquidation or similar corporate or other reorganization.

All dividends, distributions or other payments which are received by the Pledgor contrary to the provisions of this Section 6 and Section 7 hereof shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Pledgee, shall be segregated from other property or funds of the Pledgor and shall be forthwith paid over and/or delivered to the Pledgee as Collateral in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement).

7. REMEDIES IN CASE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT. If there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default, then and in every such case, the Pledgee shall be entitled to exercise all of the rights, powers and remedies (whether vested in it by this Agreement, any other Credit Document or by law) for the protection and enforcement of its rights in respect of the Collateral, and the Pledgee shall be entitled to exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction and also shall be entitled, without limitation, to exercise the following rights, which the Pledgor hereby agrees to be commercially reasonable:

9

(i) to receive all amounts payable in respect of the Collateral otherwise payable under Section 6 hereof to the Pledgor;

(ii) to transfer all or any part of the Collateral into the Pledgee’s name or the name of its nominee or nominees;

(iii) to vote all or any part of the Collateral (whether or not transferred into the name of the Pledgee) and give all consents, waivers and ratifications in respect of the Collateral and otherwise act with respect thereto as though it were the outright owner thereof (the Pledgor hereby irrevocably constituting and appointing the Pledgee the proxy and attorney-in-fact of the Pledgor, with full power of substitution to do so);

(iv) at any time and from time to time to sell, assign and deliver, or grant options to purchase, all or any part of the Collateral, or any interest therein, at any public or private sale, without demand of performance, advertisement or notice of intention to sell or of the time or place of sale or adjournment thereof or to redeem or otherwise (all of which are hereby waived by the Pledgor), for cash, on credit or for other property, for immediate or future delivery without any assumption of credit risk, and for such price or prices and on such terms as the Pledgee in its absolute discretion may determine, provided that at least 10 days’ written notice of the time and place of any such sale shall be given to the Pledgor. The Pledgee shall not be obligated to make any such sale of Collateral regardless of whether any such notice of sale has theretofore been given. The Pledgor hereby waives and releases to the fullest extent permitted by law any right or equity of redemption with respect to the Collateral, whether before or after sale hereunder, and all rights, if any, of marshalling the Collateral and any other security for the Obligations or otherwise. At any such sale, unless prohibited by applicable law, the Pledgee on behalf of the Secured Creditors may bid for and purchase all or any part of the Collateral so sold free from any such right or equity of redemption. Neither the Pledgee nor any other Secured Creditor shall be liable for failure to collect or realize upon any or all of the Collateral or for any delay in so doing nor shall any of them be under any obligation to take any action whatsoever with regard thereto; and

(v) to set-off any and all Collateral against any and all Obligations.

8. REMEDIES, ETC., CUMULATIVE. Each and every right, power and remedy of the Pledgee provided for in this Agreement or in any other Credit Document, or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other such right, power or remedy. The exercise or beginning of the exercise by the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor of any one or more of the rights, powers or remedies provided for in this Agreement or any other Credit Document or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor of all such other rights, powers or remedies, and no failure or delay on the part of the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor to exercise any such right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof. No notice to or demand on the Pledgor in any case shall entitle it to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of any of the rights of the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. The Secured Creditors agree that this Agreement may be enforced only by the action of the Pledgee, in each case acting upon the instructions of the Required Lenders (or,

10

after the date on which all Credit Document Obligations have been paid in full, the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding Other Obligations) and that no other Secured Creditor shall have any right individually to seek to enforce or to enforce this Agreement or to realize upon the security to be granted hereby, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised by the Pledgee for the benefit of the Secured Creditors upon the terms of this Agreement.

9. APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS. (a) All monies collected by the Pledgee upon any sale or other disposition of the Collateral of the Pledgor, together with all other monies received by the Pledgee hereunder (except to the extent released in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement or any other Credit Document), shall be applied to the payment of the Obligations as follows:

(i) first, to the payment of all amounts owing the Pledgee of the type described in clauses (iii) and (iv) of Section 1.1;

(ii) second, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clause (i), an amount equal to the outstanding Primary Obligations (as defined below) constituting Credit Document Obligations shall be paid to the Lenders as provided in Section 9(d) hereof, with each Lender receiving an amount equal to such outstanding Primary Obligations constituting Credit Document Obligations or, if the proceeds are insufficient to pay in full all such Primary Obligations constituting Credit Document Obligations, its Pro Rata Share (as defined below) of the amount remaining to be distributed;

(iii) third, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clauses (i) and (ii), inclusive, an amount equal to the outstanding Secondary Obligations shall be paid to the Secured Creditors as provided in Section 9(d) hereof, with each Secured Creditor receiving an amount equal to its outstanding Secondary Obligations or, if the proceeds are insufficient to pay in full all such Secondary Obligations, its Pro Rata Share of the amount remaining to be distributed; and

(v) fifth, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clauses (i) through (iii), inclusive, and following the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 20 hereof, to the relevant Pledgor or to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

(b) For purposes of this Agreement, (x) “Pro Rata Share” shall mean, when calculating a Secured Creditor’s portion of any distribution or amount, that amount (expressed as a percentage) equal to a fraction the numerator of which is the then unpaid amount of such Secured Creditor’s Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, and the denominator of which is the then outstanding amount of all Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, (y) “Primary Obligations” shall mean all principal of, and interest on, all Loans and all fees, costs and expenses incurred under the Credit Agreement with respect thereto and (z) “Secondary Obligations” shall mean all Obligations other than Primary Obligations.

(c) When payments to Secured Creditors are based upon their respective Pro Rata Shares, the amounts received by such Secured Creditors hereunder shall be applied (for purposes of making determinations under this Section 9 only) (i) first, to their Primary Obligations and (ii)

11

second, to their Secondary Obligations. If any payment to any Secured Creditor of its Pro Rata Share of any distribution would result in overpayment to such Secured Creditor, such excess amount shall instead be distributed in respect of the unpaid Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, of the other Secured Creditors, with each Secured Creditor whose Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, have not been paid in full to receive an amount equal to such excess amount multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the unpaid Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, of such Secured Creditor and the denominator of which is the unpaid Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, of all Secured Creditors entitled to such distribution.

(d) All payments required to be made hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement for the account of the Secured Creditors.

(e) For purposes of applying payments received in accordance with this Section 9, the Pledgee shall be entitled to rely upon the Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement for a determination (which the Administrative Agent and the Secured Creditors agree (or shall agree) to provide upon request of the Pledgee) of the outstanding Primary Obligations and Secondary Obligations owed to the Secured Creditors. Unless it has actual knowledge (including by way of written notice from a Secured Creditor) to the contrary, the Administrative Agent, in furnishing information pursuant to the preceding sentence, and the Pledgee, in acting hereunder, shall be entitled to assume that no Secondary Obligations are outstanding.

(f) It is understood and agreed that the Pledgor shall remain liable to the extent of any deficiency between the amount of the proceeds of the Collateral pledged by it hereunder and the aggregate amount of the Obligations of the Pledgor.

10. PURCHASERS OF COLLATERAL. Upon any sale of the Collateral by the Pledgee hereunder (whether by virtue of the power of sale herein granted, pursuant to judicial process or otherwise), the receipt of the Pledgee or the officer making the sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold, and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obligated to see to the application of any part of the purchase money paid over to the Pledgee or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication or nonapplication thereof.

11. INDEMNITY. The Pledgor agrees (i) to indemnify and hold harmless the Pledgee and each other Secured Creditor and their respective successors, assigns, employees, agents and affiliates (individually an “Indemnitee,” and collectively the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all claims, demands, losses, judgments and liabilities (including liabilities for penalties) of whatsoever kind or nature, and (ii) to reimburse each Indemnitee for all reasonable costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, in each case growing out of or resulting from this Agreement or the exercise by any Indemnitee of any right or remedy granted to it hereunder or under this Agreement or any other Credit Document (but excluding any claims, demands, losses, judgments and liabilities or expenses to the extent incurred by reason of gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision)). In no event shall the Pledgee be liable, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on its part, for any matter or thing in connection with this Agreement other than to account for monies actually received by it in accordance with the terms hereof.

12

12. PLEDGEE NOT A PARTNER OR LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY MEMBER. (a) Nothing herein shall be construed to make the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor liable as a member of any limited liability company or as a partner of any partnership and neither the Pledgee nor any other Secured Creditor by virtue of this Agreement or otherwise (except as referred to in the following sentence) shall have any of the duties, obligations or liabilities of a member of any limited liability company or partnership. The parties hereto expressly agree that, unless the Pledgee shall become the absolute owner of Collateral consisting of a Limited Liability Company Interest or Partnership Interest pursuant hereto, this Agreement shall not be construed as creating a partnership or joint venture among the Pledgee, any other Secured Creditor, the Pledgor and/or any other Person.

(b) Except as provided in the last sentence of paragraph (a) of this Section 12, the Pledgee, by accepting this Agreement, did not intend to become a member of any limited liability company or a partner of any partnership or otherwise be deemed to be a co-venturer with respect to the Pledgor, any limited liability company, partnership and/or any other Person either before or after an Event of Default shall have occurred.

The Pledgor will not change the jurisdiction of its organization or move its chief executive office except to such new jurisdiction or location as the Pledgor may establish in accordance with the last sentence of this Section 17. The originals of all documents in the possession of the Pledgor evidencing all Collateral, including but not limited to all Limited Liability Company Interests and Partnership Interests, and the only original books of account and records of the Pledgor relating thereto are, and will continue to be, kept at such chief executive office as specified in Annex F hereto, or at such new locations as the Pledgor may establish in accordance with the last sentence of this Section 17. All

15

Limited Liability Company Interests and Partnership Interests are, and will continue to be, maintained at, and controlled and directed (including, without limitation, for general accounting purposes) from, such chief executive office as specified in Annex F hereto, or such new locations as the Pledgor may establish in accordance with the last sentence of this Section 17. The Pledgor shall not establish a new jurisdiction of organization or a new location for such chief executive offices until (i) it shall have given to the Pledgee not less than 15 days’ prior written notice of its intention so to do, providing clear details of such new jurisdiction of organization or new location, as the case may be, and providing such other information in connection therewith as the Pledgee may reasonably request, and (ii) with respect to such new jurisdiction of organization or new location, as the case may be, it shall have taken all action, satisfactory to the Pledgee (and, to the extent applicable, in accordance with Section 3.2 hereof), to maintain the security interest of the Pledgee in the Collateral intended to be granted hereby at all times fully perfected and in full force and effect. Promptly after establishing a new jurisdiction of organization or new location for such chief executive offices in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, the Pledgor shall deliver to the Pledgee a supplement to Annex A hereto or Annex F hereto, as the case may be, so as to cause such Annex A or F, as the case may be, to be complete and accurate.

18. PLEDGOR’S OBLIGATIONS ABSOLUTE, ETC. The obligations of the Pledgor under this Agreement shall be absolute and unconditional and shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be released, suspended, discharged, terminated or otherwise affected by, any circumstance or occurrence whatsoever, including, without limitation: (i) any renewal, extension, amendment or modification of or addition or supplement to or deletion from this Agreement or any other Credit Document or any other instrument or agreement referred to therein, or any assignment or transfer of any thereof; (ii) any waiver, consent, extension, indulgence or other action or inaction under or in respect of any such agreement or instrument including, without limitation, this Agreement; (iii) any furnishing of any additional security to the Pledgee or its assignee or any acceptance thereof or any release of any security by the Pledgee or its assignee; (iv) any limitation on any party’s liability or obligations under any such instrument or agreement or any invalidity or unenforceability, in whole or in part, of any such instrument or agreement or any term thereof; or (v) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition, adjustment, dissolution, liquidation or other like proceeding relating to the Pledgor or any Subsidiary of the Pledgor, or any action taken with respect to this Agreement by any trustee or receiver, or by any court, in any such proceeding, whether or not the Pledgor shall have notice or knowledge of any of the foregoing (it being understood and agreed that the enforcement hereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, restructuring, moratorium or other similar laws generally affecting creditors’ rights and by equitable principles).

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in any such event the Pledgee, in its sole and absolute discretion (i) may proceed to make such private sale notwithstanding that a registration statement for the purpose of registering such Collateral or part

16

In the event of any such sale, the Pledgee shall incur no responsibility or liability for selling all or any part of the Collateral at a price which the Pledgee, in its sole and absolute discretion, in good xxxxx xxxxx reasonable under the circumstances, notwithstanding the possibility that a substantially higher price might be realized if the sale were deferred until after registration as aforesaid.

20. TERMINATION; RELEASE.

(c) At any time that the Pledgor desires that the Pledgee assign, transfer and deliver Collateral (and releases therefor) as provided in Section 20(a) or (b) hereof, it shall deliver to the Pledgee a certificate signed by a principal executive officer of the Pledgor stating that the release of the respective Collateral is permitted pursuant to such Section 20(a) or (b).

(d) The Pledgee shall have no liability whatsoever to any other Secured Creditor as a result of any release of Collateral by it in accordance with this Section 20.

3.      The Issuer hereby represents and warrants that (i) the pledge by the Pledgor of, and the granting by the Pledgor of a security interest in, the Issuer Pledged Interests to the Pledgee, for the benefit of the Secured Creditors, does not violate the charter, by-laws, partnership agreement, membership agreement or any other agreement governing the Issuer or the Issuer Pledged Interests, and (ii) the Issuer Pledged Interests are fully paid and nonassessable.

Each and every right, power and remedy of the Pledgee provided for in this Agreement or in any other Credit Document, or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other such right, power or remedy. The exercise or beginning of the exercise by the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor of any one or more of the rights, powers or remedies provided for in this Agreement or any other Credit Document or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor of all such other rights, powers or remedies, and no failure or delay on the part of the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor to exercise any such right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof. No notice to or demand on any Pledgor in any case shall entitle it to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of any of the rights of the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. The Secured Creditors agree that this Agreement may be enforced only by the action of the Pledgee, in each case acting upon the instructions of the Required Lenders and that no other Secured Creditor shall have any right individually to seek to enforce or to enforce this Agreement or to realize upon the security to be granted hereby, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised by the Pledgee for the benefit of the Secured Creditors upon the terms of this Agreement.

9. APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS. (a) Subject to the terms of the Secondary Intercreditor Agreement, all monies collected by the Pledgee upon any sale or other disposition of the Collateral of each Pledgor, together with all other monies received by the Pledgee hereunder (except to the extent released in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement or any other Credit Document), shall be applied to the payment of the Obligations as follows:

(i) first, to the payment of all amounts owing the Pledgee of the type described in clauses (ii) and (iii) of Section 1.1;

(ii) second, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clause (i), an amount equal to the outstanding Primary Obligations (as defined below) constituting Credit Document Obligations shall be paid to the Lenders as provided in Section 9(d) hereof, with each Lender receiving an amount equal to such outstanding Primary Obligations constituting Credit Document Obligations or, if the proceeds are insufficient to pay in full all such Primary Obligations constituting Credit Document Obligations, its Pro Rata Share (as defined below) of the amount remaining to be distributed;

(iii) third, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clauses (i) and (ii), inclusive, an amount equal to the outstanding Secondary Obligations shall be paid to the Secured Creditors as provided in Section 9(d) hereof, with each Secured Creditor receiving an amount equal to its outstanding Secondary Obligations or, if the proceeds are insufficient to pay in full all such Secondary Obligations, its Pro Rata Share of the amount remaining to be distributed; and

(v) fourth, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to the preceding clauses (i) through (iii), inclusive, and following the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 20 hereof, to the relevant Pledgor or to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

14

(b) For purposes of this Agreement, (x) “Pro Rata Share” shall mean, when calculating a Secured Creditor’s portion of any distribution or amount, that amount (expressed as a percentage) equal to a fraction the numerator of which is the then unpaid amount of such Secured Creditor’s Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, and the denominator of which is the then outstanding amount of all Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, (y) “Primary Obligations” shall mean all principal of, and interest on, all Loans and all fees, costs and expenses incurred under the Credit Agreement with respect thereto and (z) “Secondary Obligations” shall mean all Obligations other than Primary Obligations.

(c) When payments to Secured Creditors are based upon their respective Pro Rata Shares, the amounts received by such Secured Creditors hereunder shall be applied (for purposes of making determinations under this Section 9 only) (i) first, to their Primary Obligations and (ii) second, to their Secondary Obligations. If any payment to any Secured Creditor of its Pro Rata Share of any distribution would result in overpayment to such Secured Creditor, such excess amount shall instead be distributed in respect of the unpaid Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, of the other Secured Creditors, with each Secured Creditor whose Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, have not been paid in full to receive an amount equal to such excess amount multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the unpaid Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, of such Secured Creditor and the denominator of which is the unpaid Primary Obligations or Secondary Obligations, as the case may be, of all Secured Creditors entitled to such distribution.

(d) All payments required to be made hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement for the account of the Secured Creditors.

(e) For purposes of applying payments received in accordance with this Section 9, the Pledgee shall be entitled to rely upon the Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement for a determination (which the Administrative Agent and the Secured Creditors agree (or shall agree) to provide upon request of the Pledgee) of the outstanding Primary Obligations and Secondary Obligations owed to the Secured Creditors. Unless it has actual knowledge (including by way of written notice from a Secured Creditor) to the contrary, the Administrative Agent, in furnishing information pursuant to the preceding sentence, and the Pledgee, in acting hereunder, shall be entitled to assume that no Secondary Obligations are outstanding.

(f) It is understood and agreed that each Pledgor shall remain jointly and severally liable to the extent of any deficiency between the amount of the proceeds of the Collateral pledged by it hereunder and the aggregate amount of the Obligations of such Pledgor.

10. PURCHASERS OF COLLATERAL. Upon any sale of the Collateral by the Pledgee hereunder (whether by virtue of the power of sale herein granted, pursuant to judicial process or otherwise), the receipt of the Pledgee or the officer making the sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold, and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obligated to see to the application of any part of the purchase money paid over to the Pledgee or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication or nonapplication thereof.

15

11. INDEMNITY. Each Pledgor jointly and severally agrees (i) to indemnify and hold harmless the Pledgee and each other Secured Creditor and their respective successors, assigns, employees, agents and affiliates (individually an “Indemnitee,” and collectively the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all claims, demands, losses, judgments and liabilities (including liabilities for penalties) of whatsoever kind or nature, and (ii) to reimburse each Indemnitee for all reasonable costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, in each case growing out of or resulting from this Agreement or the exercise by any Indemnitee of any right or remedy granted to it hereunder or under any other Credit Document (but excluding any claims, demands, losses, judgments and liabilities or expenses to the extent incurred by reason of gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision)). In no event shall the Pledgee be liable, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on its part, for any matter or thing in connection with this Agreement other than to account for monies actually received by it in accordance with the terms hereof. If and to the extent that the obligations of any Pledgor under this Section 11 are unenforceable for any reason, such Pledgor hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of such obligations which is permissible under applicable law.

12. PLEDGEE NOT A PARTNER OR LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY MEMBER. (a) Nothing herein shall be construed to make the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor liable as a member of any limited liability company or as a partner of any partnership and neither the Pledgee nor any other Secured Creditor by virtue of this Agreement or otherwise (except as referred to in the following sentence) shall have any of the duties, obligations or liabilities of a member of any limited liability company or partnership. The parties hereto expressly agree that, unless the Pledgee shall become the absolute owner of Collateral consisting of a Limited Liability Company Interest or Partnership Interest pursuant hereto, this Agreement shall not be construed as creating a partnership or joint venture among the Pledgee, any other Secured Creditor, any Pledgor and/or any other Person.

(b) Except as provided in the last sentence of paragraph (a) of this Section 12, the Pledgee, by accepting this Agreement, did not intend to become a member of any limited liability company or a partner of any partnership or otherwise be deemed to be a co-venturer with respect to any Pledgor, any limited liability company, partnership and/or any other Person either before or after an Event of Default shall have occurred. The Pledgee shall have only those powers set forth herein and the Secured Creditors shall assume none of the duties, obligations or liabilities of a member of any limited liability company or as a partner of any partnership or any Pledgor except as provided in the last sentence of paragraph (a) of this Section 12.

(c) The Pledgee and the other Secured Creditors shall not be obligated to perform or discharge any obligation of any Pledgor as a result of the pledge hereby effected.

(d) The acceptance by the Pledgee of this Agreement, with all the rights, powers, privileges and authority so created, shall not at any time or in any event obligate the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor to appear in or defend any action or proceeding relating to the Collateral to which it is not a party, or to take any action hereunder or thereunder, or to expend any money or incur any expenses or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability under the Xxxxxxxxxx.

00

00. FURTHER ASSURANCES; POWER-OF-ATTORNEY. (a) Each Pledgor agrees that it will join with the Pledgee in executing (to the extent applicable) and, at such Pledgor’s own expense, file and refile under the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law such financing statements, continuation statements and other documents in such offices as the Pledgee may reasonably require and wherever required by law in order to perfect and preserve the Pledgee’s security interest in the Collateral and hereby authorizes the Pledgee to file financing statements (including, without limitation, ‘all assets’ financing statements) and amendments thereto relative to all or any part of the Collateral without the signature of such Pledgor where permitted by law, and agrees to do such further acts and things and to execute and deliver to the Pledgee such additional conveyances, assignments, agreements and instruments as the Pledgee may reasonably require to carry into effect the purposes of this Agreement or to further assure and confirm unto the Pledgee its rights, powers and remedies hereunder.

(b) Each Pledgor hereby appoints the Pledgee such Pledgor’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Pledgor and in the name of such Pledgor or otherwise, to act from time to time solely after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default in the Pledgee’s reasonable discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument which the Pledgee may deem reasonably necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement.

14. THE PLEDGEE AS AGENT. The Pledgee will hold in accordance with this Agreement all items of the Collateral at any time received under this Agreement. It is expressly understood and agreed by each Secured Creditor that by accepting the benefits of this Agreement each such Secured Creditor acknowledges and agrees that the obligations of the Pledgee as holder of the Collateral and interests therein and with respect to the disposition thereof, and otherwise under this Agreement, are only those expressly set forth in this Agreement, in the Secondary Intercreditor Agreement, and in Section 11 of the Credit Agreement. The Pledgee shall act hereunder on the terms and conditions set forth herein, in Section 11 of the Credit Agreement and in the Secondary Intercreditor Agreement.

15. TRANSFER BY THE PLEDGORS. No Pledgor will sell or otherwise dispose of, grant any option with respect to, or mortgage, pledge or otherwise encumber any of the Collateral or any interest therein (except as may be permitted in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or any other Credit Document).

16. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF THE PLEDGORS. Each Pledgor represents, warrants and covenants that:

(i) it is the legal, beneficial and record owner of, and has good and marketable title to, all Collateral pledged by such Pledgor hereunder and that it has sufficient interest in all Collateral pledged by such Pledgor hereunder in which a security interest is purported to be created hereunder for such security interest to attach (subject, in each case, to no pledge, lien, mortgage, hypothecation, security interest, charge, option, Adverse Claim or other encumbrance whatsoever, except the liens and security interests created by this Agreement and Permitted Liens);

17

(ii) it has the corporate, limited partnership or limited liability company power and authority, as the case may be, to pledge all the Collateral pledged by it pursuant to this Agreement;

(iii) this Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Pledgor and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Pledgor enforceable against such Pledgor in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that the enforceability hereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws generally affecting creditors’ rights and by equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law);

(iv) except to the extent already obtained or made, or, in the case of any filings or recordings of the Security Documents (other than the Secondary Collateral Vessel Mortgages) executed on or before the Restatement Effective Date, to be made within 10 days of the Restatement Effective Date, no consent of any other party (including, without limitation, any stockholder, partner, member or creditor of such Pledgor or any of its Subsidiaries) and no consent, license, permit, approval or authorization of, exemption by, notice or report to, or registration, filing or declaration with, any governmental authority is required to be obtained by such Pledgor in connection with (a) the execution, delivery or performance by such Pledgor of this Agreement, (b) the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of this Agreement, (c) the perfection or enforceability of the Pledgee’s security interest in the Collateral pledged by such Pledgor hereunder or (d) except for compliance with or as may be required by applicable securities laws, the exercise by the Pledgee of any of its rights or remedies provided herein;

(v) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement will not violate any provision of any applicable law or regulation or of any order, judgment, writ, award or decree of any court, arbitrator or governmental authority, U.S. or non-U.S., applicable to such Pledgor, or of the certificate or articles of incorporation, certificate of formation, operating agreement, limited liability company agreement, partnership agreement or by-laws of such Pledgor, as applicable, or of any securities issued by such Pledgor or any of its Subsidiaries, or of any mortgage, deed of trust, indenture, lease, loan agreement, credit agreement or other material contract, agreement or instrument or undertaking to which such Pledgor or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or which purports to be binding upon such Pledgor or any of its Subsidiaries or upon any of their respective assets and will not result in the creation or imposition of (or the obligation to create or impose) any lien or encumbrance on any of the assets of such Pledgor or any of its Subsidiaries which are Credit Parties, except as contemplated by this Agreement or the Credit Agreement;

(vi) all of the Collateral has been duly and validly issued and acquired, is fully paid and non-assessable (if applicable) and is subject to no options to purchase or similar rights;

(vii) subject to terms and provisions of the Secondary Intercreditor Agreement, the pledge and collateral assignment to, and possession by, the Pledgee of the Collateral pledged by such Pledgor hereunder consisting of Certificated Securities pursuant to this Agreement creates a valid and perfected second priority security interest in such Certificated Securities, and the proceeds thereof, subject to no prior Lien or to any agreement purporting to grant to

18

any third party a Lien on the property or assets of such Pledgor which would include the Certificated Securities, except for Permitted Liens, and the Pledgee is entitled to all the rights, priorities and benefits afforded by the UCC or other relevant law as enacted in any relevant jurisdiction to perfect security interests in respect of such Collateral; and;

(viii) “control” (as defined in Section 8-106 of the UCC) has been obtained by the Pledgee over all Collateral pledged by such Pledgor hereunder consisting of Stock with respect to which such “control” may be obtained pursuant to Section 8-106 of the UCC, and “control” (as defined in Section 9-104 of the UCC) has been obtained by the Pledgee over all Concentration Accounts with respect to which such “control” may be obtained pursuant to Section 9-104 of the UCC.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above in this Section 16 or elsewhere in this Agreement or any other Second Priority Loan Document, to the extent the provisions of this Agreement (or any other Second Priority Loan Document) require the delivery of Collateral to, or control over Collateral by, the Pledgee at any time prior to the Discharge of First Priority Obligations, then delivery of such Collateral shall instead be made to, or control thereof shall instead be granted to the First Priority Pledgee, as provided by the terms of the Secondary Intercreditor Agreement, to be held in accordance with the Secondary Intercreditor Agreement.

The originals of all documents in the possession of such Pledgor evidencing all Collateral, including but not limited to all Limited Liability Company Interests and Partnership Interests (to the extent not certificated), and the only original books of account and records of such Pledgor relating thereto are, and will continue to be, kept at such chief executive office as specified in Annex F hereto, or at such new locations as such Pledgor may establish in accordance with the last sentence of this Section 17. All Limited Liability Company Interests and Partnership Interests (to the extent not certificated) are, and will continue to be, maintained at, and controlled and directed (including, without limitation, for general accounting purposes) from, such chief executive office as specified in Annex F hereto, or such new locations as such Pledgor may establish in accordance with the last sentence of this Section 17. No Pledgor shall establish a new jurisdiction of organization or a new location for such chief executive offices until (i) it shall have

19

given to the Pledgee not less than 15 days’ prior written notice of its intention so to do, providing clear details of such new jurisdiction of organization or new location, as the case may be, and providing such other information in connection therewith as the Pledgee may reasonably request, and (ii) with respect to such new jurisdiction of organization or new location, as the case may be, it shall have taken all action, reasonably satisfactory to the Pledgee (and, to the extent applicable, in accordance with Section 3.2 hereof), to maintain the security interest of the Pledgee in the Collateral intended to be granted hereby at all times fully perfected and in full force and effect. Promptly after establishing a new jurisdiction of organization or new location for such chief executive offices in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, the respective Pledgor shall deliver to the Pledgee a supplement to Annex A hereto or Annex F hereto, as the case may be, so as to cause such Annex A or Annex F, as the case may be, to be complete and accurate.

18. PLEDGORS’ OBLIGATIONS ABSOLUTE, ETC. The obligations of each Pledgor under this Agreement shall be absolute and unconditional and shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be released, suspended, discharged, terminated or otherwise affected by, any circumstance or occurrence whatsoever, including, without limitation: (i) any renewal, extension, amendment or modification of or addition or supplement to or deletion from this Agreement or any other Credit Document or any other instrument or agreement referred to therein, or any assignment or transfer of any thereof; (ii) any waiver, consent, extension, indulgence or other action or inaction under or in respect of any such agreement or instrument including, without limitation, this Agreement; (iii) any furnishing of any additional security to the Pledgee or its assignee or any acceptance thereof or any release of any security by the Pledgee or its assignee; (iv) any limitation on any party’s liability or obligations under any such instrument or agreement or any invalidity or unenforceability, in whole or in part, of any such instrument or agreement or any term thereof; or (v) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition, adjustment, dissolution, liquidation or other like proceeding relating to any Pledgor or any Subsidiary of any Pledgor, or any action taken with respect to this Agreement by any trustee or receiver, or by any court, in any such proceeding, whether or not such Pledgor shall have notice or knowledge of any of the foregoing (it being understood and agreed that the enforcement hereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, restructuring, moratorium or other similar laws generally affecting creditors’ rights and by equitable principles).

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in any such event the Pledgee, in its sole and absolute discretion (i) may proceed to make such private sale notwithstanding that a registration statement for the purpose of registering such Collateral or part thereof shall have been filed under such Securities Act, (ii) may approach and negotiate with a single possible purchaser to effect such sale, and (iii) may restrict such sale to a purchaser who will represent and agree that such purchaser is purchasing for its own account, for investment, and not with a view to the distribution or sale of such Collateral or part thereof. In the event of any such sale, the Pledgee shall incur no responsibility or liability for selling all or any part of the Collateral at

20

a price which the Pledgee, in its sole and absolute discretion, in good xxxxx xxxxx reasonable under the circumstances, notwithstanding the possibility that a substantially higher price might be realized if the sale were deferred until after registration as aforesaid.

20. TERMINATION; RELEASE. (a) After the Termination Date, this Agreement and the security interest created hereby shall terminate (provided that all indemnities set forth herein including, without limitation, in Section 11 hereof shall survive any such termination), and the Pledgee, at the request and expense of any Pledgor, will as promptly as practicable execute and deliver to such Pledgor a proper instrument or instruments acknowledging the satisfaction and termination of this Agreement, and will duly assign, transfer and deliver to such Pledgor (without recourse and without any representation or warranty) such of the Collateral as has not theretofore been sold or otherwise applied or released pursuant to this Agreement or any other Credit Document, together with any monies at the time held by the Pledgee or any of its sub-agents hereunder. As used in this Agreement, “Termination Date” shall mean the date upon which the Loans under the Credit Agreement have been paid in full, no Note under the Credit Agreement is outstanding and all other Obligations then due and payable have been paid in full.

(c) At any time that a Pledgor desires to close a Concentration Account, it shall, with the consent of the Pledgee, redirect the contents of such Concentration Account to such other Concentration Account as the Pledgee shall specify to such Pledgor, and all future deposits shall be required to be made in such specified Concentration Account.

(d) At any time that a Pledgor desires that the Pledgee assign, transfer and deliver Collateral (and releases therefor) as provided in Section 20(a) or (b) hereof, it shall deliver to the Pledgee a certificate signed by a principal executive officer of such Pledgor stating that the release of the respective Collateral is permitted pursuant to such Section 20(a) or (b).

(e) The Pledgee shall have no liability whatsoever to any other Secured Creditor as a result of any release of Collateral by it in accordance with this Section 20.

21. NOTICES, ETC.

Form of Agreement Regarding Uncertificated Securities, Limited Liability

Company Interests and Partnership Interests

AGREEMENT (as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, this “Agreement”), dated as of                  ,         , among the undersigned pledgor (the “Pledgor”), Nordea Bank Finland plc, New York Branch, not in its individual capacity but solely as collateral agent (the “Pledgee”), and                          , as the issuer of the Uncertificated Securities, Limited Liability Company Interests and/or Partnership Interests (each as defined below) (the “Issuer”).

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, the Pledgor, certain of its affiliates and the Pledgee have entered into an Amended and Restated Secondary Pledge Agreement, dated as of May 17, 2012 (as amended, amended and restated, modified or supplemented from time to time, the “Pledge Agreement”), under which, among other things, in order to secure the payment of the Obligations (as defined in the Pledge Agreement), the Pledgor will pledge to the Pledgee for the benefit of the Secured Creditors (as defined in the Pledge Agreement), and grant a second priority security interest in favor of the Pledgee for the benefit of the Secured Creditors in, all of the right, title and interest of the Pledgor in and to any and all (1) “uncertificated securities” (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(18) of the Uniform Commercial Code, as adopted in the State of New York) (“Uncertificated Securities”), (2) Partnership Interests (as defined in the Pledge Agreement) and (3) Limited Liability Company Interests (as defined in the Pledge Agreement), in each case issued from time to time by the Issuer, whether now existing or hereafter from time to time acquired by the Pledgor (with all of such Uncertificated Securities, Partnership Interests and Limited Liability Company Interests being herein collectively called the “Issuer Pledged Interests”); and

WHEREAS, the Pledgor desires the Issuer to enter into this Agreement in order to protect the security interest of the Pledgee under the Pledge Agreement in the Issuer Pledged Interests, to vest in the Pledgee control of the Issuer Pledge Interests and to provide for the rights of the parties under this Agreement;

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual promises and agreements contained herein, and for other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1. The Pledgor hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Issuer, and the Issuer hereby agrees, to comply with any and all instructions and orders originated by the Pledgee (and its successors and assigns) regarding any and all of the Issuer Pledged Interests without the further consent by the registered owner (including the Pledgor), and, after receiving a notice from the Pledgee stating that an “Event of Default” has occurred and is continuing, not to comply with any instructions or orders regarding any or all of the Issuer Pledged Interests

originated by any person or entity other than the Pledgee (and its successors and assigns) or a court of competent jurisdiction.

2. The Issuer hereby certifies that (i) no notice of any security interest, lien or other encumbrance or claim affecting the Issuer Pledged Interests (other than the security interest of the Pledgee and any other Permitted Liens) has been received by it, and (ii) the security interest of the Pledgee in the Issuer Pledged Interests has been registered in the books and records of the Issuer.

3. The Issuer hereby represents and warrants that (i) the pledge by the Pledgor of, and the granting by the Pledgor of a security interest in, the Issuer Pledged Interests to the Pledgee, for the benefit of the Secured Creditors, does not violate the charter, by-laws, partnership agreement, membership agreement or any other agreement governing the Issuer or the Issuer Pledged Interests, and (ii) the Issuer Pledged Interests are fully paid and nonassessable.

4. All notices, statements of accounts, reports, prospectuses, financial statements and other communications to be sent to the Pledgor by the Issuer in respect of the Issuer will also be sent to the Pledgee at the following address:

5. Until the Pledgee shall have delivered written notice to the Issuer that all of the Obligations have been paid in full and this Agreement is terminated, the Issuer will, upon receiving notice from the Pledgee stating that an “Event of Default” has occurred and is continuing, send any and all redemptions, distributions, interest or other payments in respect of the Issuer Pledged Interests from the Issuer for the account of the Pledgor only by wire transfers to such account as the Pledgee shall instruct.

6. Except as expressly provided otherwise in Sections 4 and 5, all notices, shall be sent or delivered by mail, telegraph, telex, telecopy, electronic communication, cable or overnight courier service and all such notices and communications shall, when mailed, telegraphed, telexed, telecopied, or cabled or sent by overnight courier, be effective when deposited in the mails, delivered to the telegraph company, cable company or courier, as the case may be, or sent by telex or telecopier, except that notices and communications to the Pledgee, the Pledgor or the Issuer shall not be effective until received by the Pledgee, the Pledgor or the Issuer, as the case may be.

CONTROL AGREEMENT REGARDING DEPOSIT ACCOUNTS (as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, this “Agreement”), dated as of                       ,             , among the undersigned assignor(s) (the “Assignor”), NORDEA BANK FINLAND PLC, NEW YORK BRANCH, not in its individual capacity but solely as collateral agent on behalf of the First Priority Creditors under the First Priority Credit Agreement (as defined below) (the “First Priority Agent”), NORDEA BANK FINLAND PLC, NEW YORK BRANCH, not in its individual capacity but solely as collateral agent on behalf of the Second Priority Creditors under the Second Priority Credit Agreement (as defined below) (the “Second Priority Agent”), and NORDEA BANK FINLAND PLC, CAYMAN ISLANDS BRANCH, as the bank (as defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC as in effect on the date hereof in the State of New York (the “UCC”)) with which one or more deposit accounts (as defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC) are maintained by the Assignor (the “Deposit Account Bank”) (with all such deposit accounts now or at any time in the future maintained by the Assignor with the Deposit Account Bank being herein called the “Deposit Accounts”). Unless otherwise defined herein, all capitalized terms used herein and defined in the Intercreditor Agreement (as defined below) shall be used herein as therein defined. For the purposes hereof, the term “Collateral Agent” shall mean, at any time, the First Priority Collateral Agent or, upon the occurrence of the Discharge of First Priority Obligations in full, the Second Priority Agent.

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, General Maritime Subsidiary Corporation, as borrower, General Maritime Corporation, as a guarantor, General Maritime Subsidiary II Corporation, as a guarantor, Arlington Tankers Ltd., as a guarantor, the various lenders from time to time party thereto and the First Priority Agent have entered into a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of May 17, 2012 (as amended, modified, restated and/or supplemented from time to time, the “First Priority Credit Agreement”);

WHEREAS, General Maritime Subsidiary II Corporation, as borrower, General Maritime Corporation, as a guarantor, General Maritime Subsidiary Corporation, as a guarantor, Arlington Tankers Ltd., as a guarantor, the various lenders from time to time party thereto and the Second Priority Agent have entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of May 17, 2012 (as amended, modified, restated and/or supplemented from time to time, the “Second Priority Credit Agreement”);

WHEREAS, the Assignor, various other assignors and the First Priority Agent have entered into a Second Amended and Restated Pledge Agreement, dated as of May 17, 2012 (as further amended, amended and restated, modified or supplemented from time to time, including any joinder agreements thereto, the “Pledge Agreement”), under which, among other things, in order to secure the payment of the First Priority Obligations, the Assignor has granted a first priority security interest to the First Priority Agent for the benefit of the First Priority Creditors in all of the right, title and interest of the Assignor in and into any and all deposit

accounts (as defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC) and in all monies, securities, instruments and other investments deposited therein from time to time (collectively, herein called the “Collateral”);

WHEREAS, the Assignor, the First Priority Agent and the Deposit Account Bank are party to an Amended and Restated Control Agreement Regarding Deposit Accounts with respect to the Deposit Accounts (the “Original Control Agreement”) and wish to amend and restate the Original Control Agreement in order to amend certain other provisions contained therein;

WHEREAS, the Assignor, various other assignors and the Second Priority Agent have entered into an Amended and Restated Secondary Pledge Agreement, dated as of May 17, 2012 (as further amended, amended and restated, modified or supplemented from time to time, including any joinder agreements thereto, the “Second Priority Pledge Agreement”), under which, among other things, in order to secure the payment of the Second Priority Obligations, the Assignor has granted a second priority security interest to the Second Priority Agent for the benefit of the Second Priority Creditors in all of the right, title and interest of the Assignor in the Collateral;

WHEREAS, the parties hereto have entered into an Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of May 17, 2012, by and among the other parties from time to time party thereto governing the relative rights and priorities of the First Priority Creditors and the Second Priority Creditors (together with the First Priority Creditors, the “Secured Creditors”) with respect to the Collateral (as the same may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Intercreditor Agreement”); and

WHEREAS, the Assignor desires that the Deposit Account Bank enter into this Agreement in order to establish “control” (as defined in Section 9-104 of the UCC) in each Deposit Account at any time or from time to time maintained with the Deposit Account Bank, and to provide for the rights of the parties under this Agreement with respect to such Deposit Accounts.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual promises and agreements contained herein, and for other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1. Assignor’s Dealings with Deposit Accounts; Notice of Exclusive Control. The Deposit Account Bank hereby agrees to comply with instructions of the Collateral Agent directing disposition of the funds in the Deposit Account without further consent of the Assignor. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, until the Deposit Account Bank shall have received from the Collateral Agent a Notice of Exclusive Control (as defined below), the Assignor shall be entitled to present items drawn on and otherwise to withdraw or direct the disposition of funds from the Deposit Accounts and give instructions in respect of the Deposit Accounts; provided, however, that the Assignor may not, and the Deposit Account Bank agrees that it shall not permit the Assignor to, without the Collateral Agent’s prior written consent, close any Deposit Account. If upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (as defined in the Pledge Agreement) the Collateral Agent shall give to the Deposit Account

2

Bank a notice of the Collateral Agent’s exclusive control of the Deposit Accounts, which notice states that it is a “Notice of Exclusive Control” (a “Notice of Exclusive Control”), only the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to withdraw funds from the Deposit Accounts, to give any instructions in respect of the Deposit Accounts and any funds held therein or credited thereto or otherwise to deal with the Deposit Accounts.

2. Collateral Agent’s Right to Give Instructions as to Deposit Accounts. (a) Notwithstanding the foregoing or any separate agreement that the Assignor may have with the Deposit Account Bank, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default for purposes of this Agreement, at any time to give the Deposit Account Bank instructions as to the withdrawal or disposition of any funds from time to time credited to any Deposit Account, or as to any other matters relating to any Deposit Account or any other Collateral, without further consent from the Assignor. The Assignor hereby irrevocably authorizes and instructs the Deposit Account Bank, and the Deposit Account Bank hereby agrees, to comply with any such instructions from the Collateral Agent without any further consent from the Assignor. Such instructions may include the giving of stop payment orders for any items being presented to any Deposit Account for payment. The Deposit Account Bank shall be fully entitled to rely on, and shall comply with, such instructions from the Collateral Agent even if such instructions are contrary to any instructions or demands that the Assignor may give to the Deposit Account Bank. In case of any conflict between instructions received by the Deposit Account Bank from the Collateral Agent and the Assignor, the instructions from the Collateral Agent shall prevail.

(b) It is understood and agreed that the Deposit Account Bank’s duty to comply with instructions from the Collateral Agent regarding the Deposit Accounts is absolute, and the Deposit Account Bank shall be under no duty or obligation, nor shall it have the authority, to inquire or determine whether or not such instructions are in accordance with the Pledge Agreement, the Second Priority Pledge Agreement or any other Credit Document (as defined in the First Priority Credit Agreement), nor seek confirmation thereof from the Assignor or any other Person.

3. Assignor’s Exculpation and Indemnification of Depository Bank. The Assignor hereby irrevocably authorizes and instructs the Deposit Account Bank to follow instructions from the Collateral Agent regarding the Deposit Accounts even if the result of following such instructions from the Collateral Agent is that the Deposit Account Bank dishonors items presented for payment from any Deposit Account. The Assignor further confirms that the Deposit Account Bank shall have no liability to the Assignor for wrongful dishonor of such items in following such instructions from the Collateral Agent. The Deposit Account Bank shall have no duty to inquire or determine whether the Assignor’s obligations to the Collateral Agent are in default or whether the Collateral Agent is entitled, under any separate agreement between the Assignor and the Collateral Agent, to give any such instructions. The Assignor further agrees to be responsible for the Deposit Account Bank’s customary charges and to indemnify the Deposit Account Bank from and to hold the Deposit Account Bank harmless against any loss, cost or expense that the Deposit Account Bank may sustain or incur in acting upon instructions which the Deposit Account Bank believes in good faith to be instructions from the Collateral Agent excluding any loss, cost or expense to the extent incurred as a direct result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Deposit Account Bank.

3

4. Subordination of Security Interests; Deposit Account Bank’s Recourse to Deposit Accounts. The Deposit Account Bank hereby subordinates any claims and security interests it may have against, or with respect to, any Deposit Account at any time established or maintained with it by the Assignor (including any amounts, investments, instruments or other Collateral from time to time on deposit therein) to the security interests of the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Creditors) therein, and agrees that no amounts shall be charged by it to, or withheld or set-off or otherwise recouped by it from, any Deposit Account of the Assignor or any amounts, investments, instruments or other Collateral from time to time on deposit therein; provided that the Deposit Account Bank may, however, from time to time debit the Deposit Accounts for any of its customary charges in maintaining the Deposit Accounts or for reimbursement for the reversal of any provisional credits granted by the Deposit Account Bank to any Deposit Account, to the extent, in each case, that the Assignor has not separately paid or reimbursed the Deposit Account Bank therefor.

5. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of Deposit Account Bank. The Deposit Account Bank represents and warrants to each of the First Priority Agent and the Second Priority Agent:

(a) The Deposit Account Bank constitutes a “bank” (as defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC), that the jurisdiction (determined in accordance with Section 9-304 of the UCC) of the Deposit Account Bank for purposes of each Deposit Account maintained by the Assignor with the Deposit Account Bank shall be New York.

(b) The Deposit Account Bank shall not permit any Assignor to establish any demand, time, savings, passbook or other account with it which does not constitute a “deposit account” (as defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC).

(c) The account agreements between the Deposit Account Bank and the Assignor relating to the establishment and general operation of the Deposit Accounts provide, whether specifically or generally, that the laws of New York govern secured transactions relating to the Deposit Accounts and that the Deposit Account Bank’s “jurisdiction” for purposes of Section 9- 304 of the UCC in respect of the Deposit Accounts is New York. The Deposit Account Bank will not, without the Collateral Agent’s prior written consent, amend any such account agreement so that the Deposit Account Bank’s jurisdiction for purposes of Section 9-304 of the UCC is other than a jurisdiction permitted pursuant to preceding clause (a). All account agreements in respect of each Deposit Account in existence on the date hereof are listed on Annex A hereto and copies of all such account agreements have been furnished to the Collateral Agent. The Deposit Account Bank will promptly furnish to each of the First Priority Agent and the Second Priority Agent a copy of the account agreement for each Deposit Account hereafter established by the Deposit Account Bank for the Assignor.

(d) The Deposit Account Bank has not entered and will not enter, into any agreement with any other Person by which the Deposit Account Bank is obligated to comply with instructions from such other Person as to the disposition of funds from any Deposit Account or other dealings with any Deposit Account or other of the Collateral.

4

(e) On the date hereof the Deposit Account Bank maintains no Deposit Accounts for the Assignor other than the Deposit Accounts specifically identified in Annex A hereto.

(f) Any items or funds received by the Deposit Account Bank for the Assignor’s account will be credited to said Deposit Accounts specified in paragraph (e) above or to any other Deposit Accounts hereafter established by the Deposit Account Bank for the Assignor in accordance with this Agreement.

(g) The Deposit Account Bank will promptly notify each of the First Priority Agent and the Second Priority Agent of each Deposit Account hereafter established by the Deposit Account Bank for the Assignor (which notice shall specify the account number of such Deposit Account and the location at which the Deposit Account is maintained), and each such new Deposit Account shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement in all respects.

6. Deposit Account Statements and Information. The Deposit Account Bank agrees, and is hereby authorized and instructed by the Assignor, to furnish to the Collateral Agent, at its address indicated below, copies of all account statements and other information relating to each Deposit Account that the Deposit Account Bank sends to the Assignor and to disclose to the First Priority Agent and/or the Second Priority Agent all information requested by each of the First Priority Agent and the Second Priority Agent, as the case may be, regarding any Deposit Account.

7. Conflicting Agreements. This Agreement shall have control over any conflicting agreement between the Deposit Account Bank and the Assignor.

8. Merger or Consolidation of Deposit Account Bank. Without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, any bank into which the Deposit Account Bank may be merged or with which it may be consolidated, or any bank resulting from any merger to which the Deposit Account Bank shall be a party, shall be the successor of the Deposit Account Bank hereunder and shall be bound by all provisions hereof which are binding upon the Deposit Account Bank and shall be deemed to affirm as to itself all representations and warranties of the Deposit Account Bank contained herein.

9. Notices. (a) All notices and other communications provided for in this Agreement shall be in writing (including facsimile) and sent to the intended recipient at its address or telex or facsimile number set forth below:

(iv) at any time and from time to time to sell, assign and deliver, or grant options to purchase, all or any part of the Collateral, or any interest therein, at any public or private sale, without demand of performance, advertisement or notice of intention to sell or of the time or place of sale or adjournment thereof or to redeem or otherwise (all of which are hereby waived by each Pledgor (to the extent permitted by law)), for cash, on credit or for other property, for immediate or future delivery without any assumption of credit risk, and for such price or prices and on such terms as the Pledgee in its absolute discretion may determine, provided that at least 10 days’ written notice of the time and place of any such sale shall be given to the Pledgors. The Pledgee shall not be obligated to make any such sale of Collateral regardless of whether any such notice of sale has theretofore been given. Each Pledgor hereby waives and releases to the fullest extent permitted by law any right or equity of redemption with respect to the Collateral, whether before or after sale hereunder, and all rights, if any, of marshalling the Collateral and any other security for the Obligations (as defined in the Credit Agreements) or otherwise. At any such sale, unless prohibited by applicable law, the Pledgee on behalf of the Secured Creditors may bid for and purchase all or any part of the Collateral so sold free from any such right or equity of redemption. Neither the Pledgee nor any other Secured Creditor shall be liable for failure to collect or realize upon any or all of the Collateral or for any delay in so doing nor shall any of them be under any obligation to take any action whatsoever with regard thereto; and

(v) to set-off any and all Collateral against any and all Obligations (as defined in the Credit Agreements), and to withdraw any and all cash or other Collateral from any and all Pari Passu Collateral Accounts and to apply such cash and other Collateral to the payment of any and all Obligations.

8. REMEDIES, ETC., CUMULATIVE. Each and every right, power and remedy of the Pledgee provided for in this Agreement or in any other Secured Debt Agreement, or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other such right, power or remedy. The exercise or beginning of the exercise by the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor of any one or more of the rights, powers or remedies provided for in this Agreement or any other Secured Debt Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor of all such other rights, powers or remedies, and no failure or delay on the part of the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor to exercise any such right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof. No notice to or demand on any Pledgor in any case shall entitle it to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of any of the rights of the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. The Secured Creditors agree that this Agreement may be enforced only by the action of the Pledgee, in each case acting upon the instructions of the Required Secured Creditors and that no other Secured Creditor shall have any right individually to seek to enforce or to enforce this Agreement or to realize upon the security to be granted hereby, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised by the Pledgee for the benefit of the Secured Creditors upon the terms of this Agreement.

9. APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS. (a) All monies collected by the Pledgee upon any sale or other disposition of the Collateral of each Pledgor, together with all other monies received by the Pledgee hereunder (except to the extent released in accordance with the applicable

10

provisions of this Agreement or any other Credit Document (as defined in the Credit Agreements)), shall be applied to the payment of the Obligations in the manner set forth in Sections 4.2 and 8.3 of the Intercreditor Agreements; provided that it is understood and agreed that (I) all monies that are required to be so applied to the payment of $508M Obligations shall be applied first to the payment of Credit Document Obligations under the $508M Credit Agreement and second to the payment of Swap Obligations and (II) for the purposes of this Section 9 only, “Credit Document Obligations” under the $508M Credit Agreement shall not include any Credit Document Obligations in respect of the Tranche B Loans (as defined in the $508M Credit Agreement) and “Swap Obligations” shall include any Credit Document Obligations in respect of Tranche B Loans (as defined in the $508M Credit Agreement).

(b) All payments required to be made hereunder shall be made (x) if to the Lender Creditors, to the Administrative Agent under each of the Credit Agreements for the account of the applicable Lender Creditors in the manner set forth in the Intercreditor Agreements, and (y) if to the Swap Creditors, to the trustee, paying agent or other similar representative (each a “Representative”) for the Swap Creditors or, in the absence of such a Representative, directly to the Swap Creditors.

(c) For purposes of applying payments received in accordance with this Section 9, the Pledgee shall be entitled to rely upon (i) the $508M Administrative Agent under the $508M Credit Agreement, (ii) the $273M Administrative Agent under the $273M Credit Agreement and (ii) the Representative for the Swap Creditors or, in the absence of such a Representative, upon the Swap Creditors for a determination (which the $508M Administrative Agent, the $273M Administrative Agent, each Representative for any Swap Creditors and the Secured Creditors agree (or shall agree) to provide upon request of the Pledgee) of the outstanding Primary Obligations and Secondary Obligations owed to the $508M Lender Creditors, the $273M Lender Creditors or the Swap Creditors, as the case may be. Unless it has actual knowledge (including by way of written notice from a Lender Creditor or a Swap Creditor) to the contrary, the $508M Administrative Agent, the $273M Administrative Agent and each Representative, in furnishing information pursuant to the preceding sentence, and the Pledgee, in acting hereunder, shall be entitled to assume that no Obligations other than the Credit Document Obligations, the Swap Obligations and the obligations of the type described in clauses (iii) and (iv) of Section 1.1 are outstanding. Unless it has actual knowledge (including by way of written notice from a Swap Creditor) to the contrary, the Pledgee, in acting hereunder, shall be entitled to assume that no Interest Rate Protection Agreements or Other Hedging Obligations other than as set forth in Schedule V to the $508M Credit Agreement are in existence.

(d) It is understood and agreed that each Pledgor shall remain jointly and severally liable to the extent of any deficiency between the amount of the proceeds of the Collateral pledged by it hereunder and the aggregate amount of the Obligations of such Pledgor.

10. [Intentionally Omitted].

11. INDEMNITY. Each Pledgor jointly and severally agrees (i) to indemnify and hold harmless the Pledgee and each other Secured Creditor and their respective successors, assigns, employees, agents and affiliates (individually an “Indemnitee,” and collectively the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all claims, demands, losses, judgments and liabilities (including liabilities for penalties) of whatsoever kind or nature, and (ii) to reimburse each Indemnitee for all reasonable

11

costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, in each case growing out of or resulting from this Agreement or the exercise by any Indemnitee of any right or remedy granted to it hereunder or under any other Secured Debt Agreement (but excluding any claims, demands, losses, judgments and liabilities or expenses to the extent incurred by reason of gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision)). In no event shall the Pledgee be liable, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on its part, for any matter or thing in connection with this Agreement other than to account for monies actually received by it in accordance with the terms hereof. If and to the extent that the obligations of any Pledgor under this Section 11 are unenforceable for any reason, such Pledgor hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of such obligations which is permissible under applicable law.

12.  PLEDGEE NOT OBLIGATED TO PERFORM OBLIGATIONS OF PLEDGORS. (a) The Pledgee and the other Secured Creditors shall not be obligated to perform or discharge any obligation of any Pledgor as a result of the pledge hereby effected.

(d)           The acceptance by the Pledgee of this Agreement, with all the rights, powers, privileges and authority so created, shall not at any time or in any event obligate the Pledgee or any other Secured Creditor to appear in or defend any action or proceeding relating to the Collateral to which it is not a party, or to take any action hereunder or thereunder, or to expend any money or incur any expenses or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability under the Collateral.

13.  FURTHER ASSURANCES; POWER-OF-ATTORNEY. (a) Each Pledgor agrees that it will join with the Pledgee in executing (to the extent applicable) and, at such Pledgor’s own expense, file and refile under the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law such financing statements, continuation statements and other documents in such offices as the Pledgee may reasonably require and wherever required by law in order to perfect and preserve the Pledgee’s security interest in the Collateral and hereby authorizes the Pledgee to file financing statements and amendments thereto relative to all or any part of the Collateral without the signature of such Pledgor where permitted by law, and agrees to do such further acts and things and to execute and deliver to the Pledgee such additional conveyances, assignments, agreements and instruments as the Pledgee may reasonably require to carry into effect the purposes of this Agreement or to further assure and confirm unto the Pledgee its rights, powers and remedies hereunder.

(b)           Each Pledgor hereby appoints the Pledgee such Pledgor’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Pledgor and in the name of such Pledgor or otherwise, to act from time to time solely after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default in the Pledgee’s reasonable discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument which the Pledgee may deem reasonably necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement.

14.  THE PLEDGEE AS AGENT. The Pledgee will hold in accordance with this Agreement all items of the Collateral at any time received under this Agreement. It is expressly understood and agreed by each Secured Creditor that by accepting the benefits of this Agreement each such Secured Creditor acknowledges and agrees that the obligations of the Pledgee as holder of the Collateral and interests therein and with respect to the disposition thereof, and otherwise under this Agreement, are only those expressly set forth in this Agreement, in the Intercreditor Agreement,

and in Section 11 of the Credit Agreements. The Pledgee shall act hereunder on the terms and conditions set forth herein, in Section 11 of the Credit Agreements and in the Intercreditor Agreements.

15.  TRANSFER BY THE PLEDGORS. No Pledgor will sell or otherwise dispose of, grant any option with respect to, or mortgage, pledge or otherwise encumber any of the Collateral or any interest therein (except as may be permitted in accordance with the terms of the Secured Debt Agreements).

Form of Control Agreement Regarding Deposit Accounts

CONTROL AGREEMENT REGARDING DEPOSIT ACCOUNTS (as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, this “Agreement”), dated as of                 ,         , among the undersigned assignor(s) (the “Assignor”), NORDEA BANK FINLAND PLC, NEW YORK BRANCH (“Nordea”), not in its individual capacity but solely as collateral agent on behalf of the Secured Creditors under the Credit Agreements (the “Collateral Agent”), and [NORDEA BANK FINLAND PLC, CAYMAN ISLANDS BRANCH][NORDEA], as the bank (as defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC as in effect on the date hereof in the State of New York (the “UCC”)) with which one or more deposit accounts (as defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC) are maintained by the Assignor (the “Deposit Account Bank”) (with all such deposit accounts now or at any time in the future maintained by the Assignor with the Deposit Account Bank being herein called the “Deposit Accounts”). Unless otherwise defined herein, all capitalized terms used herein and defined in the Pari Passu Pledge Agreement (as defined below) shall be used herein as therein defined.

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, the Assignor and the Collateral Agent have entered into a Pari Passu Pledge Agreement, dated as of May 17, 2012 (as amended, amended and restated, modified or supplemented from time to time, including any joinder agreements thereto, the “Pari Passu Pledge Agreement”), under which, among other things, in order to secure the payment of the Obligations, the Assignor has granted a first priority security interest to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors in all of the right, title and interest of the Assignor in and into any and all deposit accounts (as defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC) and in all monies, securities, instruments and other investments deposited therein from time to time (collectively, herein called the “Collateral”);

WHEREAS, the Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of May 17, 2012, by and among the Assignor, the $508M Administrative Agent, as first priority agent and collateral agent, the $273M Administrative Agent, as second priority agent, and the other parties from time to time party thereto governs the relative rights and priorities of the Secured Creditors with respect to, inter alia, the collateral that is subject to a first priority lien under the $508M Credit Agreement (as the same may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “$508M Intercreditor Agreement”);

WHEREAS, the Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of May 17, 2012, by and among the Assignor, the $273M Administrative Agent, as first priority agent and collateral agent, the $508M Administrative Agent, as second priority agent, and the other parties from time to time party thereto governs the relative rights and priorities of the Secured Creditors with respect to, inter alia, the collateral that is subject to a first priority lien under the $273M Credit Agreement (as the same may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to

time, the “$273M Intercreditor Agreement” and, together with the $508M Intercreditor Agreement, the “Intercreditor Agreements”); and

WHEREAS, the Assignor desires that the Deposit Account Bank enter into this Agreement in order to establish “control” (as defined in Section 9-104 of the UCC) in each Deposit Account at any time or from time to time maintained with the Deposit Account Bank, and to provide for the rights of the parties under this Agreement with respect to such Deposit Accounts.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual promises and agreements contained herein, and for other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1. Assignor’s Dealings with Deposit Accounts; Notice of Exclusive Control. The Deposit Account Bank hereby agrees to comply with instructions of the Collateral Agent directing disposition of the funds in the Deposit Account without further consent of the Assignor. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, until the Deposit Account Bank shall have received from the Collateral Agent a Notice of Exclusive Control (as defined below), the Assignor shall be entitled to present items drawn on and otherwise to withdraw or direct the disposition of funds from the Deposit Accounts and give instructions in respect of the Deposit Accounts; provided, however, that the Assignor may not, and the Deposit Account Bank agrees that it shall not permit the Assignor to, without the Collateral Agent’s prior written consent, close any Deposit Account. If upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent shall give to the Deposit Account Bank a notice of the Collateral Agent’s exclusive control of the Deposit Accounts, which notice states that it is a “Notice of Exclusive Control” (a “Notice of Exclusive Control”), only the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to withdraw funds from the Deposit Accounts, to give any instructions in respect of the Deposit Accounts and any funds held therein or credited thereto or otherwise to deal with the Deposit Accounts.

2. Collateral Agent’s Right to Give Instructions as to Deposit Accounts. (a) Notwithstanding the foregoing or any separate agreement that the Assignor may have with the Deposit Account Bank, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default for purposes of this Agreement, at any time to give the Deposit Account Bank instructions as to the withdrawal or disposition of any funds from time to time credited to any Deposit Account, or as to any other matters relating to any Deposit Account or any other Collateral, without further consent from the Assignor. The Assignor hereby irrevocably authorizes and instructs the Deposit Account Bank, and the Deposit Account Bank hereby agrees, to comply with any such instructions from the Collateral Agent without any further consent from the Assignor. Such instructions may include the giving of stop payment orders for any items being presented to any Deposit Account for payment. The Deposit Account Bank shall be fully entitled to rely on, and shall comply with, such instructions from the Collateral Agent even if such instructions are contrary to any instructions or demands that the Assignor may give to the Deposit Account Bank. In case of any conflict between instructions received by the Deposit Account Bank from the Collateral Agent and the Assignor, the instructions from the Collateral Agent shall prevail.

2

(b) It is understood and agreed that the Deposit Account Bank’s duty to comply with instructions from the Collateral Agent regarding the Deposit Accounts is absolute, and the Deposit Account Bank shall be under no duty or obligation, nor shall it have the authority, to inquire or determine whether or not such instructions are in accordance with the Pari Passu Pledge Agreement or any other Credit Document (as defined in the Credit Agreements), nor seek confirmation thereof from the Assignor or any other Person.

3. Assignor’s Exculpation and Indemnification of Depository Bank. The Assignor hereby irrevocably authorizes and instructs the Deposit Account Bank to follow instructions from the Collateral Agent regarding the Deposit Accounts even if the result of following such instructions from the Collateral Agent is that the Deposit Account Bank dishonors items presented for payment from any Deposit Account. The Assignor further confirms that the Deposit Account Bank shall have no liability to the Assignor for wrongful dishonor of such items in following such instructions from the Collateral Agent. The Deposit Account Bank shall have no duty to inquire or determine whether the Assignor’s obligations to the Collateral Agent are in default or whether the Collateral Agent is entitled, under any separate agreement between the Assignor and the Collateral Agent, to give any such instructions. The Assignor further agrees to be responsible for the Deposit Account Bank’s customary charges and to indemnify the Deposit Account Bank from and to hold the Deposit Account Bank harmless against any loss, cost or expense that the Deposit Account Bank may sustain or incur in acting upon instructions which the Deposit Account Bank believes in good faith to be instructions from the Collateral Agent excluding any loss, cost or expense to the extent incurred as a direct result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Deposit Account Bank.

4. Subordination of Security Interests; Deposit Account Bank’s Recourse to Deposit Accounts. The Deposit Account Bank hereby subordinates any claims and security interests it may have against, or with respect to, any Deposit Account at any time established or maintained with it by the Assignor (including any amounts, investments, instruments or other Collateral from time to time on deposit therein) to the security interests of the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Creditors) therein, and agrees that no amounts shall be charged by it to, or withheld or set-off or otherwise recouped by it from, any Deposit Account of the Assignor or any amounts, investments, instruments or other Collateral from time to time on deposit therein; provided that the Deposit Account Bank may, however, from time to time debit the Deposit Accounts for any of its customary charges in maintaining the Deposit Accounts or for reimbursement for the reversal of any provisional credits granted by the Deposit Account Bank to any Deposit Account, to the extent, in each case, that the Assignor has not separately paid or reimbursed the Deposit Account Bank therefor.

5. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of Deposit Account Bank. The Deposit Account Bank represents and warrants to the Collateral Agent:

(a) The Deposit Account Bank constitutes a “bank” (as defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC), that the jurisdiction (determined in accordance with Section 9-304 of the UCC) of the Deposit Account Bank for purposes of each Deposit Account maintained by the Assignor with the Deposit Account Bank shall be New York.

3

(b) The Deposit Account Bank shall not permit any Assignor to establish any demand, time, savings, passbook or other account with it which does not constitute a “deposit account” (as defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC).

(c) The account agreements between the Deposit Account Bank and the Assignor relating to the establishment and general operation of the Deposit Accounts provide, whether specifically or generally, that the laws of New York govern secured transactions relating to the Deposit Accounts and that the Deposit Account Bank’s “jurisdiction” for purposes of Section 9- 304 of the UCC in respect of the Deposit Accounts is New York. The Deposit Account Bank will not, without the Collateral Agent’s prior written consent, amend any such account agreement so that the Deposit Account Bank’s jurisdiction for purposes of Section 9-304 of the UCC is other than a jurisdiction permitted pursuant to preceding clause (a). All account agreements in respect of each Deposit Account in existence on the date hereof are listed on Annex A hereto and copies of all such account agreements have been furnished to the Collateral Agent. The Deposit Account Bank will promptly furnish to the Collateral Agent a copy of the account agreement for each Deposit Account hereafter established by the Deposit Account Bank for the Assignor.

(d) The Deposit Account Bank has not entered and will not enter, into any agreement with any other Person by which the Deposit Account Bank is obligated to comply with instructions from such other Person as to the disposition of funds from any Deposit Account or other dealings with any Deposit Account or other of the Collateral.

(e) On the date hereof the Deposit Account Bank maintains no Deposit Accounts for the Assignor other than the Deposit Accounts specifically identified in Annex A hereto.

(f) Any items or funds received by the Deposit Account Bank for the Assignor’s account will be credited to said Deposit Accounts specified in paragraph (e) above or to any other Deposit Accounts hereafter established by the Deposit Account Bank for the Assignor in accordance with this Agreement.

6. Deposit Account Statements and Information. The Deposit Account Bank agrees, and is hereby authorized and instructed by the Assignor, to furnish to the Collateral Agent, at its address indicated below, copies of all account statements and other information relating to each Deposit Account that the Deposit Account Bank sends to the Assignor and to disclose to the Collateral Agent all information requested by each of the Collateral Agent regarding any Deposit Account.

(d) The Shipowner shall promptly notify the Mortgagee of and furnish the Mortgagee with full information, including copies of reports and surveys, regarding any material accident or accident involving repairs where the aggregate cost is likely to exceed Five Hundred Thousand Dollars (U.S. $500,000) (or its equivalent in another currency), any major damage to the Vessel, any event affecting the Vessel’s class, any occurrence in consequence whereof the Vessel has become or is likely to suffer an Event of Loss.

(e) The Mortgagee shall have the right at any time, on reasonable notice, to have its surveyor conduct inspections and surveys of the Vessel to ascertain the condition of the Vessel and to satisfy itself that the Vessel is being properly repaired and maintained.

(y) the maximum amount available, as that amount may from time to time change, from the International Group of Protection and Indemnity Associations (the “International Group”) or alternatively such sources of pollution, spillage or leakage coverage as are commercially available in any absence of such coverage by the International Group as shall be carried by prudent shipowners for similar vessels engaged in similar trades plus amounts available from customary excess insurers of such risks as excess amounts shall be carried by prudent shipowners for similar vessels engaged in similar trades; and

(z) the amounts required by the laws or regulations of the United States of America or any applicable jurisdiction in which the Vessel may be trading from time to time.

(iii) Mortgagee’s interest insurance (including extended mortgagee’s interest-additional perils-pollution) coverage satisfactory to the Mortgagee in an amount which, when aggregated with such insured value of the other Mortgaged Vessels (if the other Mortgaged Vessels are then subject to a Collateral Vessel Mortgage in favor of the Mortgagee under the Credit Agreement, and have not suffered an Event of Loss), is equal to 120% of the sum of (A) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Term Loans at such time and (B) the Total Revolving Loan Commitments at such time (or, after the termination of the Total Revolving Loan Commitment, the Revolving Loans outstanding at such time); all such Mortgagee’s interest insurance cover shall in the Mortgagee’s discretion be obtained directly by the Mortgagee and the Borrower shall on demand pay all costs of such cover; premium costs shall be reimbursed by the Borrower to the Mortgagee.

All insurance maintained hereunder shall be primary insurance without right of contribution against any other insurance maintained by the Mortgagee. Each policy of marine and war risk hull

9

and machinery insurance with respect to the Vessel shall provide that the Mortgagee shall be named in its capacity as Mortgagee and as a loss payee. Each entry in a marine and war risk protection indemnity club with respect to the Vessel shall note the interest of the Mortgagee. The Mortgagee, the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and their successors and assigns shall not be responsible for any premiums, club calls, assessments or any other obligations or for the representations and warranties made therein by the Shipowner or any other person.

At the Shipowner’s expense the Shipowner will cause its insurance broker (which, for the avoidance of doubt shall be a different insurance broker from the firm of marine insurance brokers referred to in the immediately preceding sentence) and the P & I club or association providing P & I insurance referred to in part (a)(ii) of this Section 13, to agree to advise the Mortgagee by telecopier or electronic mail confirmed by letter of any expiration, termination, alteration or cancellation of any policy, any default in the payment of any premium and of any other act or omission on the part of the Shipowner of which it has knowledge and which might invalidate or render unenforceable, in whole or in part, any insurance on the Vessel, and to provide an opportunity of paying any such unpaid premium or call, such right being exercisable by the Mortgagee on the Vessel on an individual basis and not on a fleet basis. In addition, the Shipowner shall promptly provide the Mortgagee with any information which the Mortgagee reasonably requests for the purpose of obtaining or preparing any report from an independent marine insurance consultant as to the adequacy of the insurances effected or proposed to be effected in accordance with this Mortgage as of the date hereof or in connection with any renewal thereof, and the Shipowner shall upon demand indemnify the Mortgagee in respect of all reasonable fees and other expenses incurred by or for the account of the Mortgagee in connection with any such report; provided the Mortgagee shall be entitled to such indemnity only for one such report during a period of twelve months.

The underwriters or brokers shall furnish the Mortgagee with a letter or letters of undertaking to the effect that:

(i) they will hold the instruments of insurance, and the benefit of the insurances thereunder, to the order of the Mortgagee in accordance with the terms of the loss payable clause referred to in the relevant Assignment of Insurances for the Vessel; and

(ii) they will have endorsed on each and every policy as and when the same is issued the loss payable clause and the notice of assignment referred to in the relevant Assignment of Insurances for the Vessel; and

(iii) they will not set off against any sum recoverable in respect of a claim against the Vessel under the said underwriters or brokers or any other person in respect of any other vessel nor cancel the said insurances by reason of non-payment of such premiums or other amounts.

All policies of insurance required hereby shall provide for not less than 14 days prior written notice to be received by the Mortgagee of the termination or cancellation of the insurance evidenced thereby. All policies of insurance maintained pursuant to this Section 13 for risks covered by

10

insurance other than that provided by a P & I Club shall contain provisions waiving underwriters’ rights of subrogation thereunder against any assured named in such policy and any assignee of said assured. The Shipowner has assigned to the Mortgagee its rights under any policies of insurance in respect of the Vessel. The Shipowner agrees that, unless the insurances by their terms provide that they cannot cease (by reason of nonrenewal or otherwise) without the Mortgagee being informed and having the right to continue the insurance by paying any premiums not paid by the Shipowner, receipts showing payment of premiums for required insurance and also of demands from the Vessel’s P & I underwriters to the Mortgagee at least two (2) days before the risk in question commences.

(d) Unless the Mortgagee shall otherwise agree, all amounts of whatsoever nature payable under any insurance must be payable to the Mortgagee for distribution first to itself and thereafter to the Shipowner or others as their interests may appear, provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, until otherwise required by the Mortgagee by notice to the underwriters upon the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an event of default hereunder, (i) amounts payable under any insurance on the Vessel with respect to protection and indemnity risks may be paid directly to (x) the Shipowner to reimburse it for any loss, damage or expense incurred by it and covered by such insurance or (y) the person to whom any liability covered by such insurance has been incurred provided that the underwriter shall have first received evidence that the liability insured against has been discharged, and (ii) amounts payable under any insurance with respect to the Vessel involving any damage to the Vessel not constituting an Event of Loss, may be paid by underwriters directly for the repair, salvage or other charges involved or, if the Shipowner shall have first fully repaired the damage or paid all of the salvage or other charges, may be paid to the Shipowner as reimbursement therefor; provided, however, that if such amounts (including any franchise or deductible) are in excess of U.S. $1,000,000, the underwriters shall not make such payment without first obtaining the written consent thereto of the Mortgagee.

(e) All amounts paid to the Mortgagee in respect of any insurance on the Vessel shall be disposed of as follows (after deduction of the expenses of the Mortgagee in collecting such amounts):

(i) any amount which might have been paid at the time, in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (d) above, directly to the Shipowner or others shall be paid by the Mortgagee to, or as directed by, the Shipowner;

(ii) all amounts paid to the Mortgagee in respect of an Event of Loss of the Vessel shall be applied by the Mortgagee to the payment of Indebtedness hereby secured pursuant to Section 4.02(c) of the Credit Agreement;

(iii) all other amounts paid to the Mortgagee in respect of any insurance on the Vessel may, in the Mortgagee’s sole discretion, be held and applied to the prepayment of the Obligations or to making of needed repairs or other work on the Vessel, or to the payment of other claims incurred by the Shipowner relating to the Vessel, or may be paid to the Shipowner or whosoever may be entitled thereto.

(f) In the event that any claim or lien is asserted against the Vessel for loss, damage or expense which is covered by insurance required hereunder and it is necessary for the Shipowner to obtain a bond or supply other security to prevent arrest of the Vessel or to release the Vessel from arrest on account of such claim or lien, the Mortgagee, on request of the Shipowner, may, in the sole discretion of the Mortgagee, assign to any person, firm or corporation executing a surety or guarantee bond or other agreement to save or release the Vessel from such arrest, all right, title and interest of

11

the Mortgagee in and to said insurance covering said loss, damage or expense, as collateral security to indemnify against liability under said bond or other agreement.

(g) The Shipowner shall deliver to the Mortgagee certified copies and, whenever so requested by the Mortgagee, the originals of all certificates of entry, cover notes, binders, evidences of insurance and policies and all endorsements and riders amendatory thereof in respect of insurance maintained pursuant to Section 8.03 of the Credit Agreement and under this Mortgage for the purpose of inspection or safekeeping, or, alternatively, satisfactory letters of undertaking from the broker holding the same. The Mortgagee shall be under no duty or obligation to verify the adequacy or existence of any such insurance or any such policies, endorsement or riders.

(h) The Shipowner agrees that it will not execute or permit or willingly allow to be done any act by which any insurance may be suspended, impaired or cancelled, and that it will not permit or allow the Vessel to undertake any voyage or run any risk or transport any cargo which may not be permitted by the policies in force, without having previously notified the Mortgagee in writing and insured the Vessel by additional coverage to extend to such voyages, risks, passengers or cargoes.

(i) In case any underwriter proposes to pay less on any claim than the amount thereof, the Shipowner shall forthwith inform the Mortgagee, and if a Default, an Event of Default or an Event of Loss has occurred and is continuing, the Mortgagee shall have the exclusive right to negotiate and agree to any compromise.

(j) The Shipowner will comply with and satisfy all of the provisions of any applicable law, convention, regulation, proclamation or order concerning financial responsibility for liabilities imposed on the Shipowner or the Vessel with respect to pollution by any state or nation or political subdivision thereof and will maintain all certificates or other evidence of financial responsibility as may be required by any such law, convention, regulation, proclamation or order with respect to the trade in which the Vessel is from time to time engaged and the cargo carried by it.

Section 14. Reimbursement for Expenses. The Shipowner will reimburse the Mortgagee promptly for any and all expenditures which the Mortgagee may from time to time make, layout or expend in providing such protection in respect of insurance, discharge or purchase of liens, taxes, dues, tolls, assessments, governmental charges, fines and penalties lawfully imposed, repairs, attorney’s fees, and other matters as the Shipowner is obligated herein to provide, but fails to provide or which, in the sole judgment of the Mortgagee are necessary or appropriate for the protection of the Vessel or the security granted by this Mortgage. Such obligation of the Shipowner to reimburse the Mortgagee shall be an additional indebtedness due from the Shipowner, shall bear interest at the interest rate as set forth in Section 2.07(b) of the Credit Agreement from the date of payment by the Mortgagee to and including the date of reimbursement by the Shipowner, shall be secured by this Mortgage, and shall be payable by the Shipowner on demand. The Mortgagee, though privileged to do so, shall be under no obligation to the Shipowner to make any such expenditure, nor shall the making thereof relieve the Shipowner of any default in that respect.

Section 15. Performance of Charters. The Shipowner will fully perform any and all charter parties which may be entered into with respect to the Vessel and will promptly notify the Mortgagee of any material claim by any charterer of non-performance thereunder by the Shipowner.

Section 16. Change in Ownership. The Shipowner further covenants and agrees with the Mortgagee that, so long as any part of the Indebtedness hereby secured remains unpaid,

12

there shall be no change in the ownership of the Vessel or any of the shares of the Shipowner without the prior written consent of the Mortgagee.

Section 17. Prepayment if Event of Loss. In the event that the Vessel suffers an Event of Loss, then and in each such case the Shipowner shall forthwith repay the Indebtedness hereby secured at the time and in the amount set forth in Section 4.02(c) of the Credit Agreement except to the extent such amounts have otherwise been paid as therein provided.

Section 7. Payment of Expenses. The Shipowner covenants that upon the happening of any one or more of the events of default, then, upon written demand of the Mortgagee, the Shipowner will pay to the Mortgagee the whole amount due and payable in respect of the Indebtedness hereby secured; and in case the Shipowner shall fail to pay the same forthwith upon such demand, the Mortgagee shall be entitled to recover judgment for the whole amount so due and unpaid, together with such further amounts as shall be sufficient to cover the reasonable compensation of the Mortgagee or its agents, attorneys and counsel and any necessary advances, expenses and liabilities made or incurred by it or them or the Mortgagee hereunder.

Section 8. Remedies Cumulative.

The Mortgagee shall not be required or bound to enforce any of its rights under any of the other Credit Documents, prior to enforcing its rights under this Mortgage. No delay or omission by the Mortgagee in the exercise of any right or power or in the pursuance of any remedy accruing upon any default as above defined shall impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver of any such event of default or to be an acquiescence therein; nor shall the acceptance by the Mortgagee of any security or of any payment of or on account of the Indebtedness hereby secured maturing after any event of default or of any payment on account of any past default be construed to be a waiver of any right to exercise its remedies due to any future event of default or of any past event of default not completely cured thereby. No consent, waiver or approval of the Mortgagee shall be deemed to be effective unless in writing and duly signed by authorized signatories of the Mortgagee; any waiver by the Mortgagee of any of the terms of this Mortgage or any consent given under this Mortgage shall only be effective for the purpose and on the terms which it is given and shall be without prejudice to the right to give or withhold consent in relation to future matters (which are either the same or different).

Section 9. Cure of Defaults.

Section 10. Discontinuance of Proceedings. In case the Mortgagee shall have proceeded to enforce any right, power or remedy under this Mortgage by foreclosure, entry or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Mortgagee, then and in every such case the Shipowner and the Mortgagee shall be restored to its former position and right hereunder with respect to the property subject or intended to be subject to this Mortgage, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Mortgagee shall continue as if no such proceedings had been taken.

Section 11. Application of Proceeds. After an event of default hereunder shall have occurred and be continuing, the proceeds of any sale of the Vessel and any and all other moneys received by the Mortgagee pursuant to or under the terms of this Mortgage or in any proceedings hereunder, the application of which has not elsewhere herein been specifically provided for, shall be applied as follows:

Section 13. Severability of Provisions, etc. (a) If any provision of this Mortgage should be deemed invalid or shall be deemed to affect adversely the preferred status of this Mortgage under any applicable law, such provision shall be void and of no effect and shall cease to be a part of this Mortgage without affecting the remaining provisions, which shall remain in full force and effect.

(b) In the event that the Subsidiaries Guaranty, this Mortgage, any of the other Credit Documents or any of the documents or instruments which may from time to time be delivered thereunder or hereunder or any provision thereof or hereof shall be deemed invalidated by present or future law of any nation or by decision of any court, this shall not affect the validity and/or enforceability of all or any other parts of the Subsidiaries Guaranty, this Mortgage, any of the other Credit Documents or such documents or instruments and, in any such case, the Shipowner covenants and agrees that, on demand, it will execute and deliver such other and further agreements and/or documents and/or instruments and do such things as the Mortgagee in its sole discretion may reasonably deem to be necessary to carry out the true intent of this Mortgage, the Subsidiaries Guaranty and the other Credit Documents.

(c) In the event that the title, or ownership of the Vessel shall be requisitioned, purchased or taken by any government of any country or any department, agency or representative thereof, pursuant to any present or future law, proclamation, decree order or otherwise, the lien of this Mortgage shall be deemed to attach to the claim for compensation therefor, and the compensation, purchase or other taking of such title or ownership is hereby agreed to be payable to the Mortgagee who shall be entitled to receive the same and shall apply it as provided in Section 11 of this Article III. In the event of any such requisition, purchase or taking, and the failure of the Mortgagee to receive proceeds as herein provided, the Shipowner shall promptly execute and deliver to the Mortgagee such documents, if any, as in the opinion of the Mortgagee may be necessary or useful to

18

facilitate or expedite the collection by the Mortgagee of such part of the compensation, purchase price, reimbursement or award as is payable to it hereunder.

(d) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, it is intended that nothing herein shall waive the priority status of this Mortgage, and if any provision of this Mortgage or portion thereof shall be construed to waive the priority status of this Mortgage, then such provision to such extent shall be void and of no effect.

(d) to notify the Mortgagee immediately in writing if the classification society receives notification from the Shipowner or any other person that the Vessel’s classification society is to be changed.

Notwithstanding the above instructions and undertaking given for the benefit of the Mortgagee, the Shipowner shall continue to be responsible to the classification society for the performance and discharge of all its obligations and liabilities relating to or arising out of or in connection with the contract it has with the classification society, and nothing herein or therein shall be construed as imposing any obligation or liability of the Mortgagee to the classification society in respect thereof.

The Shipowner shall further notify the classification society that all the foregoing instructions and authorizations shall remain in full force and effect until revoked or modified by written notice to the classification society received from the Mortgagee, and that the Shipowner shall reimburse the classification society for all its costs and expenses incurred in complying with the foregoing instructions.

(d) The Shipowner shall promptly notify the Mortgagee of and furnish the Mortgagee with full information, including copies of reports and surveys, regarding any material accident or accident involving repairs where the aggregate cost is likely to exceed Five Hundred Thousand Dollars (U.S. $500,000) (or its equivalent in another currency), any major damage to the Vessel, any event affecting the Vessel’s class, any occurrence in consequence whereof the Vessel has become or is likely to suffer an Event of Loss.

(e) The Mortgagee shall have the right at any time, on reasonable notice, to have its surveyor conduct inspections and surveys of the Vessel to ascertain the condition of the Vessel and to satisfy itself that the Vessel is being properly repaired and maintained. Such inspections and surveys shall be conducted at such times and in such manner as will not interfere with the Shipowner’s normal business operations and schedule.

(f) The Shipowner will furnish to the Mortgagee on demand true and complete copies of the Document of Compliance, the Safety Management Certificate and any other details of the applicable safety management system as the Mortgagee may reasonably request in writing.

(g) The Shipowner will comply or procure compliance with the ISM Code and the ISPS Code (as such terms are defined below) and notify the Mortgagee forthwith upon:

(i) any claim for breach of the ISM Code or the ISPS Code being made against the Shipowner, an ISM Responsible Person (as such term is defined below) or the manager of the Vessel in connection with the Vessel; or

(ii) any other matter, event or incident, actual or which will or could lead to the ISM Code or the ISPS Code not being complied with;

Section 13. Insurance. (a) The Shipowner, at its own expense, or with respect to part (a)(iii) of this Section 13 the Mortgagee at the expense of the Shipowner, will keep the Vessel insured with insurers and protection and indemnity clubs or associations of internationally recognized responsibility, and placed in such markets, on such terms and conditions, and through brokers, in each case reasonably acceptable to the Mortgagee (it being understood that Leeds and Leeds, AON and Xxxxx are acceptable) and under forms of policies approved by the Mortgagee against the risks indicated below and such other risks as the Mortgagee may specify from time to time:

(i) Marine and war risk, including piracy, terrorism, confiscation, London Blocking and Trapping Addendum and Lost Vessel Clause, hull and machinery insurance, hull interest insurance and freight interest insurance, together in an amount in U.S. dollars equal to, except as otherwise approved or required in writing by the Mortgagee, the greater of (x) the then Fair Market Value of the Vessel and (y) an amount which, when aggregated with such insured value of the other Collateral Vessels (if the other Collateral Vessels are then subject to a mortgage in favor of the Mortgagee under the Credit Agreement, and have not suffered an Event of Loss), is equal to 120% the sum of (A) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Term Loans at such time and (B) the Total Commitments at such time (or, after the termination of the Total Commitment, the Revolving Loans outstanding at such time). The insured values for hull and machinery required under this clause (i) for the Vessel shall at all times be in an amount equal to the greater of (x) 80% of the Fair Market Value of the Vessel and (y) an amount which, when aggregated with such hull and machinery insured value of the other Collateral Vessels (if the other Collateral Vessels are then subject to a mortgage in favor of the Mortgagee, and have not suffered an Event of Loss), is equal to the sum of (A) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Term Loans at such time and (B) the Total Commitments at such time (or, after the termination of the Total Commitment, the Revolving Loans outstanding at such time), and the remaining machinery and war risk insurance required by this clause (i) may be taken out as hull and freight interest insurance.

(ii) Marine and war risk protection and indemnity insurance or equivalent insurance (including coverage against liability for crew, fines and penalties arising out of the operation of the Vessel, insurance against liability arising out of pollution, spillage or leakage, and workmen’s compensation or longshoremen’s and harbor workers’ insurance as shall be required by applicable law) in such amounts approved by the Mortgagee; provided, however, that insurance against liability under law or international convention arising out of pollution, spillage or leakage shall be in an amount not less than the greater of:

(y) the maximum amount available, as that amount may from time to time change, from the International Group of Protection and Indemnity Associations (the “International Group”) or alternatively such sources of pollution, spillage or leakage coverage as are commercially available in any absence of such coverage by the International Group as shall be carried by prudent shipowners for similar vessels

engaged in similar trades plus amounts available from customary excess insurers of such risks as excess amounts shall be carried by prudent shipowners for similar vessels engaged in similar trades; and

(z) the amounts required by the laws or regulations of the United States of America or any applicable jurisdiction in which the Vessel may be trading from time to time.

(iii) While the Vessel is idle or laid up, at the option of the Shipowner and in lieu of the above-mentioned marine and war risk hull insurance, port risk insurance insuring the Vessel against the usual risks encountered by like vessels under similar circumstances.

(b) The Mortgagee shall, at the Shipowner’s expense, keep the Vessel insured with mortgagee’s interest insurance (including extended mortgagee’s interest-additional perils-pollution) on such conditions as the Mortgagee may reasonably require and mortgagee’s interest insurance for pollution risks as from time to time agreed, in each case satisfactory to the Mortgagee and in an amount in U.S. dollars which, when aggregated with such insured value of the other Collateral Vessels (if the other Collateral Vessels are then subject to a mortgage in favor of the Mortgagee under the Credit Agreement, and have not suffered an Event of Loss), is not less than 120% of the sum of (A) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Term Loans at such time and (B) the Total Commitments at such time (or, after the termination of the Total Commitment, the Revolving Loans outstanding at such time); all such Mortgagee’s interest insurance cover shall in the Mortgagee’s discretion be obtained directly by the Mortgagee and the Shipowner shall on demand pay all costs of such cover; premium costs shall be reimbursed by the Shipowner to the Mortgagee.

(c) The marine and commercial war-risk insurance required by this Section 13 shall have deductibles no higher than the following: (i) Hull and Machinery - U.S. $300,000 for all hull and machinery claims and each accident or occurrence and (ii) Protection and Indemnity — U.S. $100,000 for collision liabilities, U.S. $50,000 for cargo claims, U.S. $35,000 for crew claims, U.S. $20,000 passenger claims and U.S. $20,000 all other claims, in each case each accident or occurrence.

All insurance maintained hereunder shall be primary insurance without right of contribution against any other insurance maintained by the Mortgagee. Each policy of marine and war risk hull and machinery insurance with respect to the Vessel shall provide that the Mortgagee shall be named insured in its capacity as Mortgagee and as a loss payee. Each entry in a marine and war risk protection indemnity club with respect to the Vessel shall note the interest of the Mortgagee. The Mortgagee and its successors and assigns shall not be responsible for any premiums, club calls, assessments or any other obligations or for the representations and warranties made therein by the Shipowner or any other person.

(d) The Mortgagee shall from time to time, and in any event at least annually, obtain a detailed report signed by a firm of marine insurance brokers acceptable to the Mortgagee with respect to P & I entry, the hull and machinery and war risk insurance carried and maintained on the Vessel, together with their opinion as to the adequacy thereof and its compliance with the provisions of this Mortgage. At the Shipowner’s expense the Shipowner will cause its insurance broker (which, for the avoidance of doubt, will be a different insurance broker from the firm of marine insurance brokers referred to in the immediately preceding sentence) and the P & I club or association providing P & I insurance referred to in part (a)(ii) of this Section 13, to agree to advise the Mortgagee by telecopier

or electronic mail confirmed by letter of any expiration, termination, alteration or cancellation of any policy, any default in the payment of any premium and of any other act or omission on the part of the Shipowner of which it has knowledge and which might invalidate or render unenforceable, in whole or in part, any insurance on the Vessel, and to provide an opportunity of paying any such unpaid premium or call, such right being exercisable by the Mortgagee on the Vessel an individual basis and not on a fleet basis. In addition, the Shipowner shall promptly provide the Mortgagee with any information which the Mortgagee reasonably requests for the purpose of obtaining or preparing any report from the Mortgagee’s independent marine insurance consultant as to the adequacy of the insurances effected or proposed to be effected in accordance with this Mortgage as of the date hereof or in connection with any renewal thereof, and the Shipowner shall upon demand indemnify the Mortgagee in respect of all reasonable fees and other expenses incurred by or for the account of the Mortgagee in connection with any such report; provided the Mortgagee shall be entitled to such indemnity only for one such report during any period of twelve months.

The underwriters or brokers shall furnish the Mortgagee with a letter or letters of undertaking to the effect that:

(i) they will hold the instruments of insurance, and the benefit of the insurances thereunder, to the order of the Mortgagee in accordance with the terms of the loss payable clause referred to in the relevant Assignment of Insurances for the Vessel; and

(ii) they will have endorsed on each and every policy as and when the same is issued the loss payable clause and the notice of assignment referred to in the relevant Assignment of Insurances for the Vessel; and

(iii) they will not set off against any sum recoverable in respect of a claim against the Vessel under the said underwriters or brokers or any other person in respect of any other vessel nor cancel the said insurances by reason of non-payment of such premiums or other amounts.

All policies of insurance required hereby shall provide for not less than 14 days prior written notice to be received by the Mortgagee of the termination or cancellation of the insurance evidenced thereby. All policies of insurance maintained pursuant to this Section 13 for risks covered by insurance other than that provided by a P & I Club shall contain provisions waiving underwriters’ rights of subrogation thereunder against any assured named in such policy and any assignee of said assured. The Shipowner has assigned to the Mortgagee its rights under any policies of insurance in respect of the Vessel. The Shipowner agrees that, unless the insurances by their terms provide that they cannot cease (by reason of nonrenewal or otherwise) without the Mortgagee being informed and having the right to continue the insurance by paying any premiums not paid by the Shipowner, receipts showing payment of premiums for required insurance and also of demands from the Vessel’s P & I underwriters to the Mortgagee at least two (2) days before the risk in question commences.

(e) Unless the Mortgagee shall otherwise agree, all amounts of whatsoever nature payable under any insurance must be payable to the Mortgagee for distribution first to itself and thereafter to the Shipowner or others as their interests may appear, provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, until otherwise required by the Mortgagee by notice to the underwriters upon the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an event of default hereunder, (i) amounts payable under any insurance on the Vessel with respect to protection and indemnity risks may be paid directly to (x) the Shipowner to reimburse it for any loss, damage or expense incurred by

it and covered by such insurance or (y) the person to whom any liability covered by such insurance has been incurred provided that the underwriter shall have first received evidence that the liability insured against has been discharged, and (ii) amounts payable under any insurance with respect to the Vessel involving any damage to the Vessel not constituting an Event of Loss, may be paid by underwriters directly for the repair, salvage or other charges involved or, if the Shipowner shall have first fully repaired the damage or paid all of the salvage or other charges, may be paid to the Shipowner as reimbursement therefor; provided, however, that if such amounts (including any deductible) are in excess of U.S. $2,000,000, the underwriters shall not make such payment without first obtaining the written consent thereto of the Mortgagee.

(f) All amounts paid to the Mortgagee in respect of any insurance on the Vessel shall be disposed of as follows (after deduction of the expenses of the Mortgagee in collecting such amounts):

(i) any amount which might have been paid at the time, in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (d) above, directly to the Shipowner or others shall be paid by the Mortgagee to, or as directed by, the Shipowner;

(ii) all amounts paid to the Mortgagee in respect of an Event of Loss of the Vessel shall be applied by the Mortgagee to the payment of the Indebtedness hereby secured pursuant to Section 4.02(c) of the Credit Agreement;

(iii) all other amounts paid to the Mortgagee in respect of any insurance on the Vessel may, in the Mortgagee’s sole discretion, be held and applied to the prepayment of the Indebtedness hereby secured or to making of needed repairs or other work on the Vessel, or to the payment of other claims incurred by the Shipowner relating to the Vessel, or may be paid to the Shipowner or whosoever may be entitled thereto.

(g) In the event that any claim or lien is asserted against the Vessel for loss, damage or expense which is covered by insurance required hereunder and it is necessary for the Shipowner to obtain a bond or supply other security to prevent arrest of the Vessel or to release the Vessel from arrest on account of such claim or lien, the Mortgagee, on request of the Shipowner, may, in the sole discretion of the Mortgagee, assign to any person, firm or corporation executing a surety or guarantee bond or other agreement to save or release the Vessel from such arrest, all right, title and interest of the Mortgagee in and to said insurance covering said loss, damage or expense, as collateral security to indemnify against liability under said bond or other agreement.

(h) The Shipowner shall deliver to the Mortgagee certified copies and, whenever so requested by the Mortgagee, the originals of all certificates of entry, cover notes, binders, evidences of insurance and policies and all endorsements and riders amendatory thereof in respect of insurance maintained pursuant to Section 8.03 of the Credit Agreement and under this Mortgage for the purpose of inspection or safekeeping, or, alternatively, satisfactory letters of undertaking from the broker holding the same. The Mortgagee shall be under no duty or obligation to verify the adequacy or existence of any such insurance or any such policies, endorsement or riders.

(i) The Shipowner agrees that it will not execute or permit or willingly allow to be done any act by which any insurance may be suspended, impaired or cancelled, and that it will not permit or allow the Vessel to undertake any voyage or run any risk or transport any cargo which may not be permitted by the policies in force, without having previously notified the Mortgagee in writing and insured the Vessel by additional coverage to extend to such voyages, risks, passengers or cargoes.

(j) In case any underwriter proposes to pay less on any claim than the amount thereof, the Shipowner shall forthwith inform the Mortgagee, and if a Default, an Event of Default or an Event of Loss has occurred and is continuing, the Mortgagee shall have the exclusive right to negotiate and agree to any compromise.

(k) The Shipowner will comply with and satisfy all of the provisions of any applicable law, convention, regulation, proclamation or order concerning financial responsibility for liabilities imposed on the Shipowner or the Vessel with respect to pollution by any state or nation or political subdivision thereof and will maintain all certificates or other evidence of financial responsibility as may be required by any such law, convention, regulation, proclamation or order with respect to the trade in which the Vessel is from time to time engaged and the cargo carried by it.

Section 14. Reimbursement for Expenses. The Shipowner will reimburse the Mortgagee promptly for any and all expenditures which the Mortgagee may from time to time make, layout or expend in providing such protection in respect of insurance, discharge or purchase of liens, taxes, dues, tolls, assessments, governmental charges, fines and penalties lawfully imposed, repairs, attorney’s fees, and other matters as the Shipowner is obligated herein to provide, but fails to provide or which, in the sole judgment of the Mortgagee are necessary or appropriate for the protection of the Vessel or the security granted by this Mortgage. Such obligation of the Shipowner to reimburse the Mortgagee shall be an additional indebtedness due from the Shipowner, shall bear interest at the interest rate as set forth in Section 2.07(b) of the Credit Agreement from the date of payment by the Mortgagee to and including the date of reimbursement by the Shipowner, shall be secured by this Mortgage, and shall be payable by the Shipowner on demand. The Mortgagee, though privileged to do so, shall be under no obligation to the Shipowner to make any such expenditure, nor shall the making thereof relieve the Shipowner of any default in that respect.

Section 15. Performance of Charters. The Shipowner will fully perform any and all charter parties which may be entered into with respect to the Vessel and will promptly notify the Mortgagee of any material claim by any charterer of non-performance thereunder by the Shipowner.

Section 16. Change in Ownership. The Shipowner further covenants and agrees with the Mortgagee that, so long as any part of the Indebtedness hereby secured remains unpaid, there shall be no change in the ownership of the Vessel or any of the shares of the Shipowner without the prior written consent of the Mortgagee or in accordance with the Credit Agreement.

Section 17. Prepayment if Event of Loss. In the event that the Vessel suffers an Event of Loss, then and in each such case the Shipowner shall forthwith repay the Indebtedness hereby secured at the time and in the amount set forth in Section 4.02(c) of the Credit Agreement except to the extent such amounts have otherwise been paid as therein provided.

Any person dealing with the Mortgagee or

attorney-in-fact shall not be put on enquiry as to whether the Power of Attorney contained herein has become exercisable.

Section 5. Delivery of Vessel. Upon the security constituted by this Mortgage becoming immediately enforceable pursuant to Section 1 of Article III, the Mortgagee shall (in addition to the powers described in Section 1 of Article III) become forthwith entitled (but not bound) to appoint, by an instrument in writing under its seal or under the hand of any director or officer or authorized signatory, a receiver and/or manager of the Vessel upon such terms as to remuneration and otherwise as the Mortgagee shall deem fit with power from time to time to remove any receiver and appoint another in his stead and any receiver shall be the agent of the Shipowner (who shall be solely responsible for his acts and defaults and remuneration) and shall have all the powers conferred by law by way of addition to, but without limiting, those powers any receiver shall have all the powers and entitlements conferred on the Mortgagee by this Mortgage and generally shall be entitled to the same protection and to exercise the same powers and discretions as are granted to the Mortgagee under this Mortgage.

Section 6. Mortgagee to Discharge Liens. The Shipowner authorizes and empowers the Mortgagee or its appointees or any of them to appear, after an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement has occurred and is continuing, in the name of the Shipowner, its successors and assigns, in any court of any country or nation of the world where a suit is pending against the Vessel because of or on account of any alleged lien against the Vessel from which the Vessel has not been released and to take such proceedings as to them or any of them may seem proper towards the defense of such suit and the purchase or discharge of such lien, and all expenditures made or incurred by them or any of them for the purpose of such defense or purchase or discharge shall be a debt due from the Shipowner, its successors and assigns, to the Mortgagee, and shall be secured by the lien of this Mortgage in like manner and extent as if the amount and description thereof were written herein.

Section 7. Payment of Expenses. The Shipowner covenants that upon the happening of any one or more of the events of default, then, upon written demand of the Mortgagee, the Shipowner will pay to the Mortgagee the whole amount due and payable in respect of the Indebtedness hereby secured pursuant to the terms of the Subsidiaries Guaranty; and in case the Shipowner shall fail to pay the same forthwith upon such demand, the Mortgagee shall be entitled to recover judgment for the whole amount so due and unpaid, together with such further amounts as shall be sufficient to cover the reasonable compensation of the Mortgagee or its agents, attorneys and counsel and any necessary advances, expenses and liabilities made or incurred by it or them or the Mortgagee hereunder. All moneys collected by the Mortgagee under this Section 7 shall be applied by the Mortgagee in accordance with the provisions of Section 11 of this Article III.

Section 8. Remedies Cumulative. Each and every power and remedy herein given to the Mortgagee shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other power and remedy herein given or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity, in admiralty or by statute, and each and every power and remedy whether herein given or otherwise existing may be exercised from time to time and as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by the Mortgagee, and the exercise or the beginning of the exercise of any power or remedy shall not be construed to be a waiver of the right to exercise at the same time or thereafter any other power or remedy. The Mortgagee shall not be required or bound to enforce any of its rights under any of the other Credit Documents, prior to enforcing its rights under this Mortgage. No delay or omission by the Mortgagee in the exercise of any right or power or in the pursuance of any remedy accruing upon any default as above defined shall impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver of any such event of

default or to be an acquiescence therein; nor shall the acceptance by the Mortgagee of any security or of any payment of or on account of the Indebtedness hereby secured maturing after any event of default or of any payment on account of any past default be construed to be a waiver of any right to exercise its remedies due to any future event of default or of any past event of default not completely cured thereby. No consent, waiver or approval of the Mortgagee shall be deemed to be effective unless in writing and duly signed by authorized signatories of the Mortgagee; any waiver by the Mortgagee of any of the terms of this Mortgage or any consent given under this Mortgage shall only be effective for the purpose and on the terms which it is given and shall be without prejudice to the right to give or withhold consent in relation to future matters (which are either the same or different).

Section 9. Cure of Defaults. If at any time after an event of default and prior to the actual sale of the Vessel by the Mortgagee or prior to any enforcement or foreclosure proceedings the Shipowner offers completely to cure all events of default and to pay all expenses, advances and damages to the Mortgagee consequent on such events of default, with interest at the interest rate set forth in Section 2.07(b) of the Credit Agreement, then the Mortgagee may, but shall not be obligated to, accept such offer and payment and restore the Shipowner to its former position, but such action, if taken, shall not affect any subsequent event of default or impair any rights consequent thereon.

Section 10. Discontinuance of Proceedings. In case the Mortgagee shall have proceeded to enforce any right, power or remedy under this Mortgage by foreclosure, entry or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Mortgagee, then and in every such case the Shipowner and the Mortgagee shall be restored to its former position and right hereunder with respect to the property subject or intended to be subject to this Mortgage, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Mortgagee shall continue as if no such proceedings had been taken.

Section 11. Application of Proceeds. After an event of default hereunder shall have occurred and be continuing, the proceeds of any sale of the Vessel and any and all other moneys received by the Mortgagee pursuant to or under the terms of this Mortgage or in any proceedings hereunder, the application of which has not elsewhere herein been specifically provided for, shall be applied as follows:

First: To the payment of all costs and expenses (together with interest thereon as set forth in Section 14 of Article II) of the Mortgagee, including the reasonable compensation of its agents and attorneys, by reason of any sale, retaking, management or operation of the Vessel and all other sums payable to the Mortgagee hereunder by reason of any expenses or liabilities incurred or advances made by it for the protection, maintenance and enforcement of the security or of any of its rights hereunder, under the Credit Agreement, the Subsidiaries Guaranty and under the other Credit Documents or in the pursuit of any remedy hereby or thereby conferred; and at the option of the Mortgagee to the payment of any taxes, assessments or liens claiming priority over the lien of this Mortgage; and

Section 13. Severability of Provisions, etc. (a) If any provision of this Mortgage should be deemed invalid or shall be deemed to affect adversely the preferred status of this Mortgage under any applicable law, such provision shall be void and of no effect and shall cease to be a part of this Mortgage without affecting the remaining provisions, which shall remain in full force and effect.

(b) In the event that the Subsidiaries Guaranty, this Mortgage, any of the other Credit Documents or any of the documents or instruments which may from time to time be delivered thereunder or hereunder or any provision thereof or hereof shall be deemed invalidated by present or future law of any nation or by decision of any court, this shall not affect the validity and/or enforceability of all or any other parts of the Subsidiaries Guaranty, this Mortgage, any of the other Credit Documents or such documents or instruments and, in any such case, the Shipowner covenants and agrees that, on demand, it will execute and deliver such other and further agreements and/or documents and/or instruments and do such things as the Mortgagee in its sole discretion may reasonably deem to be necessary to carry out the true intent of this Mortgage, the Subsidiaries Guaranty and the other Credit Documents.

(c) In the event that the title, or ownership of the Vessel shall be requisitioned, purchased or taken by any government of any country or any department, agency or representative thereof, pursuant to any present or future law, proclamation, decree order or otherwise, the lien of this Mortgage shall be deemed to attach to the claim for compensation therefor, and the compensation, purchase or other taking of such title or ownership is hereby agreed to be payable to the Mortgagee who shall be entitled to receive the same and shall apply it as provided in Section 11 of this Article III. In the event of any such requisition, purchase or taking, and the failure of the Mortgagee to receive proceeds as herein provided, the Shipowner shall promptly execute and deliver to the Mortgagee such documents, if any, as in the opinion of the Mortgagee may be necessary or useful to facilitate or expedite the collection by the Mortgagee of such part of the compensation, purchase price, reimbursement or award as is payable to it hereunder.

(d) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, it is intended that nothing herein shall waive the priority status of this Mortgage, and if any provision of this Mortgage or portion thereof shall be construed to waive the priority status of this Mortgage, then such provision to such extent shall be void and of no effect.

The Shipowner covenants to deliver annually to the Mortgagee a certificate from such class society showing such classification to be maintained. The Shipowner will without cost or expense to the Mortgagee promptly, irrevocably and unconditionally instruct and

Notwithstanding the above instructions and undertaking given for the benefit of the Mortgagee, the Shipowner shall continue to be responsible to the classification society for the performance and discharge of all its obligations and liabilities relating to or arising out of or in connection with the contract it has with the classification society, and nothing herein or therein shall be construed as imposing any obligation or liability of the Mortgagee to the classification society in respect thereof.

The Shipowner shall further notify the classification society that all the foregoing instructions and authorizations shall remain in full force and effect until revoked or modified by written notice to the classification society received from the Mortgagee, and that the Shipowner shall reimburse the classification society for all its costs and expenses incurred in complying with the foregoing instructions.

(e) The Mortgagee shall have the right at any time, on reasonable notice, to have its surveyor conduct inspections and surveys of the Vessel to ascertain the condition of the Vessel and to satisfy itself that the Vessel is being properly repaired and maintained. Such inspections and surveys shall be conducted at such times and in such manner as will not interfere with the Shipowner’s normal business operations and schedule.

(f) The Shipowner will furnish to the Mortgagee on demand true and complete copies of the Document of Compliance, the Safety Management Certificate and any other details of the applicable safety management system as the Mortgagee may reasonably request in writing.

(g) The Shipowner will comply or procure compliance with the ISM Code and the ISPS Code (as such terms are defined below) and notify the Mortgagee forthwith upon:

(ii) any other matter, event or incident, actual or which will or could lead to the ISM Code or the ISPS Code not being complied with;

Section 13. Insurance.   (a) The Shipowner, at its own expense, or with respect to part (a)(iii) of this Section 13 the Mortgagee at the expense of the Shipowner, will keep the Vessel insured with insurers and protection and indemnity clubs or associations of internationally recognized responsibility, and placed in such markets, on such terms and conditions, and through brokers, in each case reasonably acceptable to the Mortgagee (it being understood that Leeds and Leeds, AON and Xxxxx are acceptable) and under forms of policies approved by the Mortgagee against the risks indicated below and such other risks as the Mortgagee may specify from time to time:

(i) Marine and war risk, including piracy, terrorism, confiscation, London Blocking and Trapping Addendum and Lost Vessel Clause, hull and machinery insurance, hull interest insurance and freight interest insurance, together in an amount in U.S. dollars equal to, except as otherwise approved or required in writing by the Mortgagee, the greater of (x) the then Fair Market Value of the Vessel and (y) an amount which, when aggregated with such insured value of the other Collateral Vessels (if the other Collateral Vessels are then subject to a mortgage in favor of the Mortgagee under the Credit Agreement, and have not suffered an Event of Loss), is equal to 120% the sum of (A) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Term Loans at such time and (B) the Total Commitments at such time (or, after the termination of the Total Commitment, the Revolving Loans outstanding at such time). The insured values for hull and machinery required under this clause (i) for the Vessel shall at all times be in an amount equal to the greater of (x) 80% of the Fair Market Value of the Vessel and (y) an amount which, when aggregated with such hull and machinery insured value of the other Collateral Vessels (if the other Collateral Vessels are then subject to a mortgage in favor of the Mortgagee, and have not suffered an Event of Loss), is equal to the sum of (A) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Term Loans at such time and (B) the Total Commitments at such time (or, after the termination of the Total Commitment, the Revolving Loans outstanding at such time), and the remaining machinery and war risk insurance required by this clause (i) may be taken out as hull and freight interest insurance.

(ii) Marine and war risk protection and indemnity insurance or equivalent insurance (including coverage against liability for crew, fines and penalties arising out of the operation of the Vessel, insurance against liability arising out of pollution, spillage or leakage, and workmen’s compensation or longshoremen’s and harbor workers’ insurance as shall be required by applicable law) in such amounts approved by the Mortgagee; provided, however that insurance against liability under law or international convention arising out of pollution, spillage or leakage shall be in an amount not less than the greater of:

(y) the maximum amount available, as that amount may from time to time change, from the International Group of Protection and Indemnity Associations (the “International Group”) or alternatively such sources of pollution, spillage or leakage coverage as are commercially available in any absence of such coverage by the International Group as shall be carried by prudent shipowners for similar vessels engaged in similar trades plus amounts available from customary excess insurers of such risks as excess amounts shall be carried by prudent shipowners for similar

vessels engaged in similar trades; and

(z) the amounts required by the laws or regulations of the United States of America or any applicable jurisdiction in which the Vessel may be trading from time to time.

(iii) While the Vessel is idle or laid up, at the option of the Shipowner and in lieu of the above-mentioned marine and war risk hull insurance, port risk insurance insuring the Vessel against the usual risks encountered by like vessels under similar circumstances.

(b) The Mortgagee shall, at the Shipowner’s expense, keep the Vessel insured with mortgagee’s interest insurance (including extended mortgagee’s interest-additional perils-pollution) on such conditions as the Mortgagee may reasonably require and mortgagee’s interest insurance for pollution risks as from time to time agreed, in each case satisfactory to the Mortgagee and in an amount in U.S. dollars which, when aggregated with such insured value of the other Collateral Vessels (if the other Collateral Vessels are then subject to a mortgage in favor of the Mortgagee under the Credit Agreement, and have not suffered an Event of Loss), is not less than 120% of the sum of (A) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Term Loans at such time and (B) the Total Commitments at such time (or, after the termination of the Total Commitment, the Revolving Loans outstanding at such time); all such Mortgagee’s interest insurance cover shall in the Mortgagee’s discretion be obtained directly by the Mortgagee and the Shipowner shall on demand pay all costs of such cover; premium costs shall be reimbursed by the Shipowner to the Mortgagee.

(c) The marine and commercial war-risk insurance required by this Section 13 shall have deductibles and franchises no higher than the following: (i) Hull and Machinery - U.S. $300,000 for all hull and machinery claims and each accident or occurrence and (ii) Protection and Indemnity — U.S. $100,000 for collision liabilities, U.S. $50,000 for cargo claims, U.S. $35,000 for crew claims, U.S. $20,000 passenger claims and U.S. $20,000 all other claims, in each case each accident or occurrence.

All insurance maintained hereunder shall be primary insurance without right of contribution against any other insurance maintained by the Mortgagee. Each policy of marine and war risk hull and machinery insurance with respect to the Vessel shall provide that the Mortgagee shall be named insured in its capacity as Mortgagee and as a loss payee. Each entry in a marine and war risk protection indemnity club with respect to the Vessel shall note the interest of the Mortgagee. The Mortgagee and its successors and assigns shall not be responsible for any premiums, club calls, assessments or any other obligations or for the representations and warranties made therein by the Shipowner or any other person.

(d) The Mortgagee shall from time to time, and in any event at least annually, obtain a detailed report signed by a firm of marine insurance brokers acceptable to the Mortgagee with respect to P & I entry, the hull and machinery and war risk insurance carried and maintained on the Vessel, together with their opinion as to the adequacy thereof and its compliance with the provisions of this Mortgage. At the Shipowner’s expense the Shipowner will cause its insurance broker (which, for the avoidance of doubt, will be a different insurance broker from the firm of marine insurance brokers referred to in the immediately preceding sentence) and the P & I club or association providing P & I insurance referred to in part (a)(ii) of this Section 13, to agree to advise the Mortgagee by telecopier or electronic mail confirmed by letter of any expiration, termination, alteration or cancellation of any policy, any default in the payment of any premium and of any other act or omission on the part of the

Shipowner of which it has knowledge and which might invalidate or render unenforceable, in whole or in part, any insurance on the Vessel, and to provide an opportunity of paying any such unpaid premium or call, such right being exercisable by the Mortgagee on the Vessel an individual basis and not on a fleet basis. In addition, the Shipowner shall promptly provide the Mortgagee with any information which the Mortgagee reasonably requests for the purpose of obtaining or preparing any report from the Mortgagee’s independent marine insurance consultant as to the adequacy of the insurances effected or proposed to be effected in accordance with this Mortgage as of the date hereof or in connection with any renewal thereof, and the Shipowner shall upon demand indemnify the Mortgagee in respect of all reasonable fees and other expenses incurred by or for the account of the Mortgagee in connection with any such report; provided the Mortgagee shall be entitled to such indemnity only for one such report during any period of twelve months.

The underwriters or brokers shall furnish the Mortgagee with a letter or letters of undertaking to the effect that:

(i) they will hold the instruments of insurance, and the benefit of the insurances thereunder, to the order of the Mortgagee in accordance with the terms of the loss payable clause referred to in the relevant Assignment of Insurances for the Vessel; and

(ii) they will have endorsed on each and every policy as and when the same is issued the loss payable clause and the notice of assignment referred to in the relevant Assignment of Insurances for the Vessel; and

(iii) they will not set off against any sum recoverable in respect of a claim against the Vessel under the said underwriters or brokers or any other person in respect of any other vessel nor cancel the said insurances by reason of non-payment of such premiums or other amounts.

All policies of insurance required hereby shall provide for not less than 14 days prior written notice to be received by the Mortgagee of the termination or cancellation of the insurance evidenced thereby. All policies of insurance maintained pursuant to this Section 13 for risks covered by insurance other than that provided by a P & I Club shall contain provisions waiving underwriters’ rights of subrogation thereunder against any assured named in such policy and any assignee of said assured. The Shipowner has assigned to the Mortgagee its rights under any policies of insurance in respect of the Vessel. The Shipowner agrees that, unless the insurances by their terms provide that they cannot cease (by reason of nonrenewal or otherwise) without the Mortgagee being informed and having the right to continue the insurance by paying any premiums not paid by the Shipowner, receipts showing payment of premiums for required insurance and also of demands from the Vessel’s P & I underwriters to the Mortgagee at least two (2) days before the risk in question commences.

(e) Unless the Mortgagee shall otherwise agree, all amounts of whatsoever nature payable under any insurance must be payable to the Mortgagee for distribution first to itself and thereafter to the Shipowner or others as their interests may appear, provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, until otherwise required by the Mortgagee by notice to the underwriters upon the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an event of default hereunder, (i) amounts payable under any insurance on the Vessel with respect to protection and indemnity risks may be paid directly to (x) the Shipowner to reimburse it for any loss, damage or expense incurred by it and covered by such insurance or (y) the person to whom any liability covered by such insurance has been incurred provided that the underwriter shall have first received evidence that the liability

insured against has been discharged, and (ii) amounts payable under any insurance with respect to the Vessel involving any damage to the Vessel not constituting an Event of Loss, may be paid by underwriters directly for the repair, salvage or other charges involved or, if the Shipowner shall have first fully repaired the damage or paid all of the salvage or other charges, may be paid to the Shipowner as reimbursement therefor; provided, however, that if such amounts (including any deductible) are in excess of U.S. $2,000,000, the underwriters shall not make such payment without first obtaining the written consent thereto of the Mortgagee.

(f) All amounts paid to the Mortgagee in respect of any insurance on the Vessel shall be disposed of as follows (after deduction of the expenses of the Mortgagee in collecting such amounts):

(i) any amount which might have been paid at the time, in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (d) above, directly to the Shipowner or others shall be paid by the Mortgagee to, or as directed by, the Shipowner;

(ii) all amounts paid to the Mortgagee in respect of an Event of Loss of the Vessel shall be applied by the Mortgagee to the payment of the Indebtedness hereby secured pursuant to Section 4.02(c) of the Credit Agreement;

(iii) all other amounts paid to the Mortgagee in respect of any insurance on the Vessel may, in the Mortgagee’s sole discretion, be held and applied to the prepayment of the Indebtedness hereby secured or to making of needed repairs or other work on the Vessel, or to the payment of other claims incurred by the Shipowner relating to the Vessel, or may be paid to the Shipowner or whosoever may be entitled thereto.

(g) In the event that any claim or lien is asserted against the Vessel for loss, damage or expense which is covered by insurance required hereunder and it is necessary for the Shipowner to obtain a bond or supply other security to prevent arrest of the Vessel or to release the Vessel from arrest on account of such claim or lien, the Mortgagee, on request of the Shipowner, may, in the sole discretion of the Mortgagee, assign to any person, firm or corporation executing a surety or guarantee bond or other agreement to save or release the Vessel from such arrest, all right, title and interest of the Mortgagee in and to said insurance covering said loss, damage or expense, as collateral security to indemnify against liability under said bond or other agreement.

(h) The Shipowner shall deliver to the Mortgagee certified copies and, whenever so requested by the Mortgagee, the originals of all certificates of entry, cover notes, binders, evidences of insurance and policies and all endorsements and riders amendatory thereof in respect of insurance maintained pursuant to Section 8.03 of the Credit Agreement and under this Mortgage for the purpose of inspection or safekeeping, or, alternatively, satisfactory letters of undertaking from the broker holding the same. The Mortgagee shall be under no duty or obligation to verify the adequacy or existence of any such insurance or any such policies, endorsement or riders.

(i) The Shipowner agrees that it will not execute or permit or willingly allow to be done any act by which any insurance may be suspended, impaired or cancelled, and that it will not permit or allow the Vessel to undertake any voyage or run any risk or transport any cargo which may not be permitted by the policies in force, without having previously notified the Mortgagee in writing and insured the Vessel by additional coverage to extend to such voyages, risks, passengers or cargoes.

(j) In case any underwriter proposes to pay less on any claim than the amount thereof,

the Shipowner shall forthwith inform the Mortgagee, and if a Default, an Event of Default or an Event of Loss has occurred and is continuing, the Mortgagee shall have the exclusive right to negotiate and agree to any compromise.

(k) The Shipowner will comply with and satisfy all of the provisions of any applicable law, convention, regulation, proclamation or order concerning financial responsibility for liabilities imposed on the Shipowner or the Vessel with respect to pollution by any state or nation or political subdivision thereof and will maintain all certificates or other evidence of financial responsibility as may be required by any such law, convention, regulation, proclamation or order with respect to the trade in which the Vessel is from time to time engaged and the cargo carried by it.

Section 14. Reimbursement for Expenses. The Shipowner will reimburse the Mortgagee promptly for any and all expenditures which the Mortgagee may from time to time make, layout or expend in providing such protection in respect of insurance, discharge or purchase of liens, taxes, dues, tolls, assessments, governmental charges, fines and penalties lawfully imposed, repairs, attorney’s fees, and other matters as the Shipowner is obligated herein to provide, but fails to provide or which, in the sole judgment of the Mortgagee are necessary or appropriate for the protection of the Vessel or the security granted by this Mortgage. Such obligation of the Shipowner to reimburse the Mortgagee shall be an additional indebtedness due from the Shipowner, shall bear interest at the interest rate as set forth in Section 2.07(b) of the Credit Agreement from the date of payment by the Mortgagee to and including the date of reimbursement by the Shipowner, shall be secured by this Mortgage, and shall be payable by the Shipowner on demand. The Mortgagee, though privileged to do so, shall be under no obligation to the Shipowner to make any such expenditure, nor shall the making thereof relieve the Shipowner of any default in that respect.

Section 15. Performance of Charters. The Shipowner will fully perform any and all charter parties which may be entered into with respect to the Vessel and will promptly notify the Mortgagee of any material claim by any charterer of non-performance thereunder by the Shipowner.

Section 16. Change in Ownership. The Shipowner further covenants and agrees with the Mortgagee that, so long as any part of the Indebtedness hereby secured remains unpaid, there shall be no change in the ownership of the Vessel or any of the shares of the Shipowner without the prior written consent of the Mortgagee or in accordance with the Credit Agreement.

Section 17. Prepayment if Event of Loss. In the event that the Vessel suffers an Event of Loss, then and in each such case the Shipowner shall forthwith repay the Indebtedness hereby secured at the time and in the amount set forth in Section 4.02(c) of the Credit Agreement except to the extent such amounts have otherwise been paid as therein provided.

Any person dealing with the Mortgagee or attorney-in-fact shall not be put on enquiry as to whether the power of attorney contained herein has become exercisable. In the event of any sale of the Vessel, under any power herein contained, the Shipowner will, if and when required by the Mortgagee, execute such form of conveyance of the Vessel as the Mortgagee may direct or approve.

Section 4. Power of Attorney-Collection. The Mortgagee is hereby irrevocably appointed attorney-in-fact of the Shipowner upon the happening of any event of default, in the name of the Shipowner to demand, collect, receive, compromise and xxx for, so far as may be permitted by law, all freight, hire, earnings, issues, revenues, income and profits of the Vessel and all amounts due from underwriters under any insurance thereon as payment of losses or as return premiums or otherwise, salvage awards and recoveries, recoveries in general average or otherwise, and all other sums due or to become due at the time of the happening of any event of default as defined in Section 1 of Article III hereof in respect of the Vessel, or in respect of any insurance thereon, from any person whomsoever, and to make, give and execute in the name of the Shipowner acquittances, receipts, releases or other discharges for the same, whether under seal or otherwise, and to endorse and accept in the name of the Shipowner all checks, notes, drafts, warrants, agreements and other instruments in writing with respect to the foregoing. Any person dealing with the Mortgagee or attorney-in-fact shall not be put on enquiry as to whether the Power of Attorney contained herein has become exercisable.

Section 5. Delivery of Vessel. Upon the security constituted by this Mortgage becoming immediately enforceable pursuant to Section 1 of Article III, the Mortgagee shall (in addition to the

powers described in Section 1 of Article III) become forthwith entitled (but not bound) to appoint, by an instrument in writing under its seal or under the hand of any director or officer or authorized signatory, a receiver and/or manager of the Vessel upon such terms as to remuneration and otherwise as the Mortgagee shall deem fit with power from time to time to remove any receiver and appoint another in his stead and any receiver shall be the agent of the Shipowner (who shall be solely responsible for his acts and defaults and remuneration) and shall have all the powers conferred by law by way of addition to, but without limiting, those powers any receiver shall have all the powers and entitlements conferred on the Mortgagee by this Mortgage and generally shall be entitled to the same protection and to exercise the same powers and discretions as are granted to the Mortgagee under this Mortgage.

Section 6. Mortgagee to Discharge Liens. The Shipowner authorizes and empowers the Mortgagee or its appointees or any of them to appear, after an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement has occurred and is continuing, in the name of the Shipowner, its successors and assigns, in any court of any country or nation of the world where a suit is pending against the Vessel because of or on account of any alleged lien against the Vessel from which the Vessel has not been released and to take such proceedings as to them or any of them may seem proper towards the defense of such suit and the purchase or discharge of such lien, and all expenditures made or incurred by them or any of them for the purpose of such defense or purchase or discharge shall be a debt due from the Shipowner, its successors and assigns, to the Mortgagee, and shall be secured by the lien of this Mortgage in like manner and extent as if the amount and description thereof were written herein.

Section 7. Payment of Expenses. The Shipowner covenants that upon the happening of any one or more of the events of default, then, upon written demand of the Mortgagee, the Shipowner will pay to the Mortgagee the whole amount due and payable in respect of the Indebtedness hereby secured pursuant to the terms of the Subsidiaries Guaranty; and in case the Shipowner shall fail to pay the same forthwith upon such demand, the Mortgagee shall be entitled to recover judgment for the whole amount so due and unpaid, together with such further amounts as shall be sufficient to cover the reasonable compensation of the Mortgagee or its agents, attorneys and counsel and any necessary advances, expenses and liabilities made or incurred by it or them or the Mortgagee hereunder. All moneys collected by the Mortgagee under this Section 7 shall be applied by the Mortgagee in accordance with the provisions of Section 11 of this Article III.

Section 8. Remedies Cumulative. Each and every power and remedy herein given to the Mortgagee shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other power and remedy herein given or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity, in admiralty or by statute, and each and every power and remedy whether herein given or otherwise existing may be exercised from time to time and as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by the Mortgagee, and the exercise or the beginning of the exercise of any power or remedy shall not be construed to be a waiver of the right to exercise at the same time or thereafter any other power or remedy. The Mortgagee shall not be required or bound to enforce any of its rights under any of the other Credit Documents, prior to enforcing its rights under this Mortgage. No delay or omission by the Mortgagee in the exercise of any right or power or in the pursuance of any remedy accruing upon any default as above defined shall impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver of any such event of default or to be an acquiescence therein; nor shall the acceptance by the Mortgagee of any security or of any payment of or on account of the Indebtedness hereby secured maturing after any event of default or of any payment on account of any past default be construed to be a waiver of any right to exercise its remedies due to any future event of default or of any past event of default not completely cured thereby. No consent, waiver or approval of the Mortgagee shall be deemed to be effective

unless in writing and duly signed by authorized signatories of the Mortgagee; any waiver by the Mortgagee of any of the terms of this Mortgage or any consent given under this Mortgage shall only be effective for the purpose and on the terms which it is given and shall be without prejudice to the right to give or withhold consent in relation to future matters (which are either the same or different).

Section 9. Cure of Defaults. If at any time after an event of default and prior to the actual sale of the Vessel by the Mortgagee or prior to any enforcement or foreclosure proceedings the Shipowner offers completely to cure all events of default and to pay all expenses, advances and damages to the Mortgagee consequent on such events of default, with interest at the interest rate set forth in Section 2.07(b) of the Credit Agreement, then the Mortgagee may, but shall not be obligated to, accept such offer and payment and restore the Shipowner to its former position, but such action, if taken, shall not affect any subsequent event of default or impair any rights consequent thereon.

Section 10. Discontinuance of Proceedings. In case the Mortgagee shall have proceeded to enforce any right, power or remedy under this Mortgage by foreclosure, entry or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Mortgagee, then and in every such case the Shipowner and the Mortgagee shall be restored to its former position and right hereunder with respect to the property subject or intended to be subject to this Mortgage, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Mortgagee shall continue as if no such proceedings had been taken.

Section 11. Application of Proceeds. After an event of default hereunder shall have occurred and be continuing, the proceeds of any sale of the Vessel and any and all other moneys received by the Mortgagee pursuant to or under the terms of this Mortgage or in any proceedings hereunder, the application of which has not elsewhere herein been specifically provided for, shall be applied as follows:

First: To the payment of all costs and expenses (together with interest thereon as set forth in Section 14 of Article II) of the Mortgagee, including the reasonable compensation of its agents and attorneys, by reason of any sale, retaking, management or operation of the Vessel and all other sums payable to the Mortgagee hereunder by reason of any expenses or liabilities incurred or advances made by it for the protection, maintenance and enforcement of the security or of any of its rights hereunder, under the Credit Agreement, the Subsidiaries Guaranty and under the other Credit Documents or in the pursuit of any remedy hereby or thereby conferred; and at the option of the Mortgagee to the payment of any taxes, assessments or liens claiming priority over the lien of this Mortgage; and

Second: To the Pledgee (as defined in the Pledge Agreement) for its distribution in accordance with the provisions of Section 9 of the Pledge Agreement; and

Third: To the Shipowner or as may be directed by a court of competent jurisdiction.

Section 12. Possession Until Default. Until one or more of the events of default hereinafter described shall happen, the Shipowner (a) shall be suffered and permitted to retain actual possession and use of the Vessel and (b) shall have the right, from time to time, in its discretion, and without application to the Mortgagee, and without obtaining a release thereof by the Mortgagee, to dispose of, free from the lien hereof, any boilers, engines, machinery, masts, spars, sails, rigging, boats, anchors, chains, tackle, apparel, furniture, fittings or equipment or any other appurtenances of

the Vessel that are no longer useful, necessary, profitable or advantageous in the operation of the Vessel, first or simultaneously replacing the same by new boilers, engines, machinery, masts, spars, sails, rigging, boats, anchors, chains, tackle, apparel, furniture, fittings, equipment, or other appurtenances of substantially equal value to the Shipowner, which shall forthwith become subject to the lien of this Mortgage as a second preferred mortgage thereon.

Section 13. Severability of Provisions. etc. (a) If any provision of this Mortgage should be deemed invalid or shall be deemed to affect adversely the preferred status of this Mortgage under any applicable law, such provision shall be void and of no effect and shall cease to be a part of this Mortgage without affecting the remaining provisions, which shall remain in full force and effect.

(b) In the event that the Subsidiaries Guaranty, this Mortgage, any of the other Credit Documents or any of the documents or instruments which may from time to time be delivered thereunder or hereunder or any provision thereof or hereof shall be deemed invalidated by present or future law of any nation or by decision of any court, this shall not affect the validity and/or enforceability of all or any other parts of the Subsidiaries Guaranty, this Mortgage, any of the other Credit Documents or such documents or instruments and, in any such case, the Shipowner covenants and agrees that, on demand, it will execute and deliver such other and further agreements and/or documents and/or instruments and do such things as the Mortgagee in its sole discretion may reasonably deem to be necessary to carry out the true intent of this Mortgage, the Subsidiaries Guaranty and the other Credit Documents.

(c) In the event that the title, or ownership of the Vessel shall be requisitioned, purchased or taken by any government of any country or any department, agency or representative thereof, pursuant to any present or future law, proclamation, decree order or otherwise, the lien of this Mortgage shall be deemed to attach to the claim for compensation therefor, and the compensation, purchase or other taking of such title or ownership is hereby agreed to be payable to the Mortgagee who shall be entitled to receive the same and shall apply it as provided in Section 11 of this Article III. In the event of any such requisition, purchase or taking, and the failure of the Mortgagee to receive proceeds as herein provided, the Shipowner shall promptly execute and deliver to the Mortgagee such documents, if any, as in the opinion of the Mortgagee may be necessary or useful to facilitate or expedite the collection by the Mortgagee of such part of the compensation, purchase price, reimbursement or award as is payable to it hereunder.

(d) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, it is intended that nothing herein shall waive the priority status of this Mortgage, and if any provision of this Mortgage or portion thereof shall be construed to waive the priority status of this Mortgage, then such provision to such extent shall be void and of no effect.

This Deed of Covenants made on [CLOSING DATE] (this “Deed”) by [SHIPOWNER], a Bermuda exempted company (the “Shipowner”), in favor of NORDEA BANK FINLAND PLC, NEW YORK BRANCH, as Security Trustee (together with its successors in trust and assigns, the “Mortgagee”), pursuant to the Credit Agreement referred to below in order to supplement the second priority mortgage entered into as of the date hereof by the Shipowner in favor of the Mortgagee.

W I T N E S S E T H

WHEREAS:

A. The Shipowner, a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of General Maritime Corporation (the “Parent”), is the sole owner of the whole of the Bermuda flag vessel [VESSEL NAME], Official Number [OFFICIAL NUMBER], IMO Number [IMO NUMBER], with her home port at Hamilton, Bermuda.

B. The Parent, General Maritime Subsidiary Corporation, as a guarantor (“GMSC”), General Maritime Subsidiary II Corporation (the “Borrower”), Arlington Tankers Ltd., as a guarantor, have entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of May 6, 2011 (as the same may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”) among various lenders referred to therein, and Nordea Bank Finland plc, New York Branch, as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, providing for the making of loans to the Borrower in the principal amount of up to Three Hundred Seventy Two Million United States Dollars (U.S. $372,000,000) (the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, collectively, the “Lender Creditors”). A copy of the form of the Credit Agreement (without attachments) is attached hereto as Exhibit A and made a part hereof. Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used herein and defined in the Secondary Intercreditor Agreement (as defined below) and/or the Credit Agreement, as applicable, shall be used herein as so defined.

C. The Borrower may at any time and from time to time enter into, or guaranty the obligations of one or more Subsidiary Guarantors or any of their respective Subsidiaries under, one or more Interest Rate Protection Agreements or Other Hedging Agreements with respect to the Loans (and/or the Commitments) with one or more Lenders or any Affiliate thereof (each such Lender or Affiliate, even if the respective Lender subsequently ceases to be a Lender under the Credit Agreement for any reason, together with such Lender’s or Affiliate’s successors and assigns, if any, collectively, the “Other Creditors” and, together with the Lender Creditors, the “Secured Creditors”). The estimated aggregate notional amount of the liabilities of the Borrower under the Interest Rate Protection Agreements or Other Hedging Agreements entered into with respect to the Loans (and/or the Commitments) is Fifty Million United States Dollars (U.S. $50,000,000).

D. The Shipowner entered into the Subsidiaries Guaranty in favor of the Secured Creditors pursuant to which the Shipowner has guaranteed (i) to the Lender Creditors, all obligations of the Borrower under the Credit Agreement and each other Credit Document to which the Borrower is a party, and (ii) to each of the Other Creditors, all obligations of the Borrower under each Interest Rate Protection Agreement and each Other Hedging Agreement entered into with respect to the

Loans (and/or the Commitments). Copies of the forms of the Subsidiaries Guaranty and Joinder to the Subsidiaries Guaranty are attached hereto as Exhibit B and made a part hereof. The Lenders have committed to make Loans subject to the terms and on the conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement; the Shipowner acknowledges that it is justly indebted to the Secured Creditors under the Subsidiaries Guaranty.

E. The Shipowner is a party to that certain first priority statutory mortgage and deed of covenant supplemental thereto, dated as of [](1) (as the same may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with the Secondary Intercreditor Agreement, the “First Preferred Mortgage”), granted by the Shipowner in favor of Nordea Bank Finland plc, New York Branch, in its capacity as assignee for the benefit of the First Priority Creditors (and its successors, assigns and replacements in such capacity, the “First Priority Agent”) pursuant to which the Shipowner has granted a security interest in the Vessel (as defined below) to secure the Obligations (as defined in the First Priority Credit Agreement (as defined below)) of the Credit Parties (as defined in the First Priority Credit Agreement (as defined below)) under that certain Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of May 6, 2011 (as the same may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with the Secondary Intercreditor Agreement, the “First Priority Credit Agreement”) among the Parent, GMSC, as borrower, the Borrower, as a guarantor, the lenders party thereto from time to time, and the First Priority Agent.

F. Contemporaneously with execution of this Deed, there has been executed and registered by the Shipowner in favor of the Mortgagee a second priority statutory Bermuda Ship Mortgage (the “Mortgage”) to secure its obligations under the Subsidiaries Guaranty according to the terms thereof, and the payment of all other such sums that may hereinafter be secured by this Deed in accordance with the terms hereof, and to secure the performance and observance of and compliance with all the agreements, covenants and conditions contained herein and in the Subsidiaries Guaranty, the Shipowner has duly authorized the execution and delivery of this Deed collateral to the Mortgage and to the security thereby created.

G. The Parent, the Borrower, GMSC, the First Priority Agent, the Mortgagee and other parties party thereto from time to time are party to the Subordination and Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, with respect to the Secondary Collateral (the “Secondary Intercreditor Agreement”).

H. Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Mortgagee has agreed to act as Trustee for the Secured Creditors.

(i) Marine and war risk, including piracy, terrorism, confiscation, London Blocking and Trapping Addendum and Lost Vessel Clause, hull and machinery insurance, hull interest insurance and freight interest insurance, together in an amount in U.S. dollars equal to, except as otherwise approved or required in writing by the Mortgagee, the greater of (x) the then full commercial value of the Vessel and (y) an amount which, when aggregated with such insured value of the other Collateral Vessels (if the other Collateral Vessels are then subject to a mortgage in favor of the Mortgagee under the Credit Agreement, and have not suffered an Event of Loss), is equal to 120% the sum of (A) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Term Loans at such time and (B) the Total Commitments at such time (or, after the termination of the Total Commitment, the Revolving Loans outstanding at such time). The insured values for hull and machinery required under this clause (i) for the Vessel shall at all times be in an amount equal to the greater of (x) 80% of the Fair Market Value of the Vessel and (y) an amount which, when aggregated with such hull and machinery insured value of the other Collateral Vessels (if the other Collateral Vessels are then subject to a mortgage in favor of the Mortgagee, and have not suffered an Event of Loss), is equal to the sum of (A) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Term Loans at such time and (B) the Total Commitments at such time (or, after the termination of the Total Commitment, the Revolving Loans outstanding at such time), and the remaining machinery and war risk insurance required by this clause (i) may be taken out as hull and freight interest insurance.

(ii) Marine and war risk protection and indemnity insurance or equivalent insurance (including coverage against liability for crew, fines and penalties arising out of the operation of the Vessel, insurance against liability arising out of pollution, spillage or leakage, and workmen’s compensation or longshoremen’s and harbor workers’ insurance as shall be required by applicable law) in such amounts approved by the Mortgagee; provided, however that insurance against liability under law or international convention arising out of pollution, spillage or leakage shall be in an amount not less than the greater of:

(y) the maximum amount available, as that amount may from time to time change, from the International Group of Protection and Indemnity Associations (the “International Group”) or alternatively such sources of pollution, spillage or leakage coverage as are commercially available in any absence of such coverage by the International Group as shall be carried by prudent shipowners for similar vessels engaged in similar trades plus amounts available from customary excess insurers of such risks as excess amounts shall be carried by prudent shipowners for similar vessels engaged in similar trades; and

(z) the amounts required by the laws or regulations of the United States of America, Bermuda or any applicable jurisdiction in which the Vessel may be trading from time to time.

(iii) While the Vessel is idle or laid up, at the option of the Shipowner and in lieu of the above-mentioned marine and war risk hull insurance, port risk insurance insuring the Vessel against the usual risks encountered by like vessels under similar circumstances.

(b) The Mortgagee shall, at the Shipowner’s expense, keep the Vessel insured with mortgagee’s interest insurance (including extended mortgagee’s interest-additional perils-pollution) on such conditions as the Mortgagee may reasonably require and mortgagee’s interest insurance for pollution risks as from time to time agreed, in each case satisfactory to the Mortgagee and in an amount in U.S. dollars which, when aggregated with such insured value of the other Collateral Vessels (if the other Collateral Vessels are then subject to a mortgage in favor of the Mortgagee under the Credit Agreement, and have not suffered an Event of Loss), is not less than 120% of the sum of (A) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Term Loans at such time and (B) the Total Commitments at such time (or, after the termination of the Total Commitment, the Revolving Loans outstanding at such time); all such Mortgagee’s interest insurance cover shall in the Mortgagee’s discretion be obtained directly by the Mortgagee and the Shipowner shall on demand pay all costs of such cover; premium costs shall be reimbursed by the Shipowner to the Mortgagee.

(c) The marine and commercial war-risk insurance required by this Section 13 shall have deductibles and franchises no higher than the following: (i) Hull and Machinery - U.S. $300,000 for all hull and machinery claims and each accident or occurrence and (ii) Protection and Indemnity — U.S. $100,000 for collision liabilities, U.S. $50,000 for cargo claims, U.S. $35,000 for crew claims, U.S. $20,000 passenger claims and U.S. $20,000 all other claims, in each case each accident or occurrence.

All insurance maintained hereunder shall be primary insurance without right of contribution against any other insurance maintained by the Mortgagee. Each policy of marine and war risk hull and machinery insurance with respect to the Vessel shall provide that the Mortgagee shall be a named insured in its capacity as Mortgagee and a loss payee. Each entry in a marine and war risk protection indemnity club with respect to the Vessel shall note the interest of the Mortgagee. The Mortgagee and its successors and assigns shall not be responsible for any premiums, club calls, assessments or any other obligations or for the representations and warranties made therein by the Shipowner or any other person.

(d) The Mortgagee from time to time, and in any event at least annually, obtain a detailed report signed by a firm of marine insurance brokers acceptable to the Mortgagee with respect to P & I entry, the hull and machinery and war risk insurance carried and maintained on the Vessel, together with their opinion as to the adequacy thereof and its compliance with the provisions of this Deed. At the Shipowner’s expense the Shipowner will cause its insurance broker (which, for the avoidance of doubt, will be a different insurance broker from the firm of marine insurance brokers referred to in the immediately preceding sentence) and the P & I club or association providing P & I insurance referred to in part (a)(ii) of this Section 13, to agree to advise the Mortgagee by telecopier or electronic mail confirmed by letter of any expiration, termination, alteration or cancellation of any policy, any default in the payment of any premium and of any other act or omission on the part of the Shipowner of which it has knowledge and which might invalidate or render unenforceable, in whole or in part, any insurance on the Vessel, and to provide an opportunity of paying any such unpaid

premium or call, such right being exercisable by the Mortgagee on the Vessel an individual basis and not on a fleet basis. In addition, the Shipowner shall promptly provide the Mortgagee with any information which the Mortgagee reasonably requests for the purpose of obtaining or preparing any report from the Mortgagee’s independent marine insurance consultant as to the adequacy of the insurances effected or proposed to be effected in accordance with this Deed as of the date hereof or in connection with any renewal thereof, and the Shipowner shall upon demand indemnify the Mortgagee in respect of all reasonable fees and other expenses incurred by or for the account of the Mortgagee in connection with any such report; provided the Mortgagee shall be entitled to such indemnity only for one such report during any period of twelve months.

The underwriters or brokers shall furnish the Mortgagee with a letter or letters of undertaking to the effect that:

(i) they will hold the instruments of insurance, and the benefit of the insurances thereunder, to the order of the Mortgagee in accordance with the terms of the loss payable clause referred to in the relevant Assignment of Insurances for the Vessel; and

(ii) they will have endorsed on each and every policy as and when the same is issued the loss payable clause and the notice of assignment referred to in the relevant Assignment of Insurances for the Vessel; and

(iii) they will not set off against any sum recoverable in respect of a claim against the Vessel under the said underwriters or brokers or any other person in respect of any other vessel nor cancel the said insurances by reason of non-payment of such premiums or other amounts.

All policies of insurance required hereby shall provide for not less than 14 days prior written notice to be received by the Mortgagee of the termination or cancellation of the insurance evidenced thereby. All policies of insurance maintained pursuant to this Section 13 for risks covered by insurance other than that provided by a P & I Club shall contain provisions waiving underwriters’ rights of subrogation thereunder against any assured named in such policy and any assignee of said assured. The Shipowner has assigned to the Mortgagee its rights under any policies of insurance in respect of the Vessel. The Shipowner agrees that, unless the insurances by their terms provide that they cannot cease (by reason of nonrenewal or otherwise) without the Mortgagee being informed and having the right to continue the insurance by paying any premiums not paid by the Shipowner, receipts showing payment of premiums for required insurance and also of demands from the Vessel’s P & I underwriters to the Mortgagee at least two (2) days before the risk in question commences.

(e) Unless the Mortgagee shall otherwise agree, all amounts of whatsoever nature payable under any insurance must be payable to the Mortgagee for distribution first to itself and thereafter to the Shipowner or others as their interests may appear, provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, until otherwise required by the Mortgagee by notice to the underwriters upon the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an event of default hereunder, (i) amounts payable under any insurance on the Vessel with respect to protection and indemnity risks may be paid directly to (x) the Shipowner to reimburse it for any loss, damage or expense incurred by it and covered by such insurance or (y) the person to whom any liability covered by such insurance has been incurred provided that the underwriter shall have first received evidence that the liability insured against has been discharged, and (ii) amounts payable under any insurance with respect to the Vessel involving any damage to the Vessel not constituting an Event of Loss, may be paid by

underwriters directly for the repair, salvage or other charges involved or, if the Shipowner shall have first fully repaired the damage or paid all of the salvage or other charges, may be paid to the Shipowner as reimbursement therefor; provided, however, that if such amounts (including any deductible) are in excess of U.S. $2,000,000, the underwriters shall not make such payment without first obtaining the written consent thereto of the Mortgagee.

(f) All amounts paid to the Mortgagee in respect of any insurance on the Vessel shall be disposed of as follows (after deduction of the expenses of the Mortgagee in collecting such amounts):

(i) any amount which might have been paid at the time, in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (d) above, directly to the Shipowner or others shall be paid by the Mortgagee to, or as directed by, the Shipowner;

(ii) all amounts paid to the Mortgagee in respect of an Event of Loss of the Vessel shall be applied by the Mortgagee to the payment of the Indebtedness hereby secured pursuant to Section 4.02(c) of the Credit Agreement;

(iii) all other amounts paid to the Mortgagee in respect of any insurance on the Vessel may, in the Mortgagee’s sole discretion, be held and applied to the prepayment of the Indebtedness hereby secured or to making of needed repairs or other work on the Vessel, or to the payment of other claims incurred by the Shipowner relating to the Vessel, or may be paid to the Shipowner or whosoever may be entitled thereto.

(g) In the event that any claim or lien is asserted against the Vessel for loss, damage or expense which is covered by insurance required hereunder and it is necessary for the Shipowner to obtain a bond or supply other security to prevent arrest of the Vessel or to release the Vessel from arrest on account of such claim or lien, the Mortgagee, on request of the Shipowner, may, in the sole discretion of the Mortgagee, assign to any person, firm or corporation executing a surety or guarantee bond or other agreement to save or release the Vessel from such arrest, all right, title and interest of the Mortgagee in and to said insurance covering said loss, damage or expense, as collateral security to indemnify against liability under said bond or other agreement.

(h) The Shipowner shall deliver to the Mortgagee certified copies and, whenever so requested by the Mortgagee, the originals of all certificates of entry, cover notes, binders, evidences of insurance and policies and all endorsements and riders amendatory thereof in respect of insurance maintained pursuant to Section 8.03 of the Credit Agreement and under this Deed for the purpose of inspection or safekeeping, or, alternatively, satisfactory letters of undertaking from the broker holding the same. The Mortgagee shall be under no duty or obligation to verify the adequacy or existence of any such insurance or any such policies, endorsement or riders.

(i) The Shipowner agrees that it will not execute or permit or willingly allow to be done any act by which any insurance may be suspended, impaired or cancelled, and that it will not permit or allow the Vessel to undertake any voyage or run any risk or transport any cargo which may not be permitted by the policies in force, without having previously notified the Mortgagee in writing and insured the Vessel by additional coverage to extend to such voyages, risks, passengers or cargoes.

(j) In case any underwriter proposes to pay less on any claim than the amount thereof, the Shipowner shall forthwith inform the Mortgagee, and if a Default, an Event of Default or an

Event of Loss has occurred and is continuing, the Mortgagee shall have the exclusive right to negotiate and agree to any compromise.

(k) The Shipowner will comply with and satisfy all of the provisions of any applicable law, convention, regulation, proclamation or order concerning financial responsibility for liabilities imposed on the Shipowner or the Vessel with respect to pollution by any state or nation or political subdivision thereof and will maintain all certificates or other evidence of financial responsibility as may be required by any such law, convention, regulation, proclamation or order with respect to the trade in which the Vessel is from time to time engaged and the cargo carried by it.

Section 14. Reimbursement for Expenses. The Shipowner will reimburse the Mortgagee promptly for any and all expenditures which the Mortgagee may from time to time make, layout or expend in providing such protection in respect of insurance, discharge or purchase of liens, taxes, dues, tolls, assessments, governmental charges, fines and penalties lawfully imposed, repairs, attorney’s fees, and other matters as the Shipowner is obligated herein to provide, but fails to provide or which, in the sole judgment of the Mortgagee are necessary or appropriate for the protection of the Vessel or the security granted by this Deed. Such obligation of the Shipowner to reimburse the Mortgagee shall be an additional indebtedness due from the Shipowner, shall bear interest at the interest rate as set forth in Section 2.07(b) of the Credit Agreement from the date of payment by the Mortgagee to and including the date of reimbursement by the Shipowner, shall be secured by the Mortgage and this Deed, and shall be payable by the Shipowner on demand. The Mortgagee, though privileged to do so, shall be under no obligation to the Shipowner to make any such expenditure, nor shall the making thereof relieve the Shipowner of any default in that respect.

Section 15. Performance of Charters. The Shipowner will fully perform any and all charter parties which may be entered into with respect to the Vessel and will promptly notify the Mortgagee of any material claim by any charterer of non-performance thereunder by the Shipowner.

In case of any such sale, the Mortgagee, if it is the purchaser, shall be entitled, for the purpose of making settlement or payment for the property purchased, to use and apply the Indebtedness hereby secured in order that there may be credited against the amount remaining due and unpaid thereon the sums payable out of the net proceeds of such sale to the Mortgagee after allowing for the costs and expense of sale and other charges; and thereupon such purchaser shall be credited, on account of such purchase price, with the net proceeds that shall have been so credited upon the Indebtedness hereby secured. At any such sale, the Mortgagee may bid for and purchase such property and upon compliance with the terms of sale may hold, retain and dispose of such property without further accountability therefor.

Section 3. Power of Attorney-Sale. The Mortgagee is hereby irrevocably appointed attorney-in-fact of the Shipowner to execute and deliver to any purchaser aforesaid, and is hereby vested with full power and authority to make, in the name and on behalf of the Shipowner, a good conveyance of the title to the Vessel so sold only after an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement has occurred and is continuing. Any person dealing with the Mortgagee or attorney-in-fact shall not be put on enquiry as to whether the power of attorney contained herein has become exercisable. In the event of any sale of the Vessel, under any power herein contained, the Shipowner will, if and when required by the Mortgagee, execute such form of conveyance of the Vessel as the Mortgagee may direct or approve.

Section 4. Power of Attorney-Collection. The Mortgagee is hereby irrevocably appointed attorney-in-fact of the Shipowner upon the happening of any event of default, in the name of the Shipowner to demand, collect, receive, compromise and xxx for, so far as may be permitted by law, all freight, hire, earnings, issues, revenues, income and profits of the Vessel and all amounts due from underwriters under any insurance thereon as payment of losses or as return premiums or otherwise, salvage awards and recoveries, recoveries in general average or otherwise, and all other sums due or to become due at the time of the happening of any event of default as defined in Section 1 of Article III hereof in respect of the Vessel, or in respect of any insurance thereon, from any person whomsoever, and to make, give and execute in the name of the Shipowner acquittances, receipts, releases or other discharges for the same, whether under seal or otherwise, and to endorse and accept in the name of the Shipowner all checks, notes, drafts, warrants, agreements and other instruments in writing with respect to the foregoing. Any person dealing with the Mortgagee or attorney-in-fact shall not be put on enquiry as to whether the Power of Attorney contained herein has become exercisable.

Section 5. Delivery of Vessel. Upon the security constituted by this Deed becoming immediately enforceable pursuant to Section 1 of Article III, the Mortgagee shall (in addition to the powers described in Section 1 of Article III) become forthwith entitled (but not bound) to appoint, by an instrument in writing under its seal or under the hand of any director or officer or authorized signatory, a receiver and/or manager of the Vessel upon such terms as to remuneration and otherwise

as the Mortgagee shall deem fit with power from time to time to remove any receiver and appoint another in his stead and any receiver shall be the agent of the Shipowner (who shall be solely responsible for his acts and defaults and remuneration) and shall have all the powers conferred by law by way of addition to, but without limiting, those powers any receiver shall have all the powers and entitlements conferred on the Mortgagee by this Deed and generally shall be entitled to the same protection and to exercise the same powers and discretions as are granted to the Mortgagee under this Deed.

Section 6 Mortgagee to Discharge Liens. The Shipowner authorizes and empowers the Mortgagee or its appointees or any of them to appear, after an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement has occurred and is continuing, in the name of the Shipowner, its successors and assigns, in any court of any country or nation of the world where a suit is pending against the Vessel because of or on account of any alleged lien against the Vessel from which the Vessel has not been released and to take such proceedings as to them or any of them may seem proper towards the defense of such suit and the purchase or discharge of such lien, and all expenditures made or incurred by them or any of them for the purpose of such defense or purchase or discharge shall be a debt due from the Shipowner, its successors and assigns, to the Mortgagee, and shall be secured by the lien of this Deed in like manner and extent as if the amount and description thereof were written herein.

Section 7. Payment of Expenses. The Shipowner covenants that upon the happening of any one or more of the events of default, then, upon written demand of the Mortgagee, the Shipowner will pay to the Mortgagee the whole amount due and payable in respect of the Indebtedness hereby secured pursuant to the terms of the Subsidiaries Guaranty; and in case the Shipowner shall fail to pay the same forthwith upon such demand, the Mortgagee shall be entitled to recover judgment for the whole amount so due and unpaid, together with such further amounts as shall be sufficient to cover the reasonable compensation of the Mortgagee or its agents, attorneys and counsel and any necessary advances, expenses and liabilities made or incurred by it or them or the Mortgagee hereunder. All moneys collected by the Mortgagee under this Section 7 shall be applied by the Mortgagee in accordance with the provisions of Section 11 of this Article III.

Section 8. Remedies Cumulative. Each and every power and remedy herein given to the Mortgagee shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other power and remedy herein given or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity, in admiralty or by statute, and each and every power and remedy whether herein given or otherwise existing may be exercised from time to time and as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by the Mortgagee, and the exercise or the beginning of the exercise of any power or remedy shall not be construed to be a waiver of the right to exercise at the same time or thereafter any other power or remedy. The Mortgagee shall not be required or bound to enforce any of its rights under any of the other Credit Documents, prior to enforcing its rights under this Deed and the Mortgage. No delay or omission by the Mortgagee in the exercise of any right or power or in the pursuance of any remedy accruing upon any default as above defined shall impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver of any such event of default or to be an acquiescence therein; nor shall the acceptance by the Mortgagee of any security or of any payment of or on account of the Indebtedness hereby secured maturing after any event of default or of any payment on account of any past default be construed to be a waiver of any right to exercise its remedies due to any future event of default or of any past event of default not completely cured thereby. No consent, waiver or approval of the Mortgagee shall be deemed to be effective unless in writing and duly signed by authorized signatories of the Mortgagee; any waiver by the Mortgagee of any of the terms of this Deed or any consent given under this Deed shall only be effective for the purpose and on the terms which it is given and shall be without prejudice to the right

to give or withhold consent in relation to future matters (which are either the same or different).

Section 9. Cure of Defaults.  If at any time after an event of default and prior to the actual sale of the Vessel by the Mortgagee or prior to any enforcement or foreclosure proceedings the Shipowner offers completely to cure all events of default and to pay all expenses, advances and damages to the Mortgagee consequent on such events of default, with interest at the interest rate set forth in Section 2.07(b) of the Credit Agreement, then the Mortgagee may, but shall not be obligated to, accept such offer and payment and restore the Shipowner to its former position, but such action, if taken, shall not affect any subsequent event of default or impair any rights consequent thereon.

Section 10. Discontinuance of Proceedings.  In case the Mortgagee shall have proceeded to enforce any right, power or remedy under this Deed and the Mortgage by foreclosure, entry or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Mortgagee, then and in every such case the Shipowner and the Mortgagee shall be restored to its former position and right hereunder with respect to the property subject or intended to be subject to this Deed and the Mortgage, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Mortgagee shall continue as if no such proceedings had been taken.

Section 11. Application of Proceeds.  After an event of default hereunder shall have occurred and be continuing, the proceeds of any sale of the Vessel and any and all other moneys received by the Mortgagee pursuant to or under the terms of this Deed or in any proceedings hereunder, the application of which has not elsewhere herein been specifically provided for, shall be applied as follows:

First:   To the payment of all costs and expenses (together with interest thereon as set forth in Section 14 of Article II) of the Mortgagee, including the reasonable compensation of its agents and attorneys, by reason of any sale, retaking, management or operation of the Vessel and all other sums payable to the Mortgagee hereunder by reason of any expenses or liabilities incurred or advances made by it for the protection, maintenance and enforcement of the security or of any of its rights hereunder, under the Credit Agreement, the Subsidiaries Guaranty and under the other Credit Documents or in the pursuit of any remedy hereby or thereby conferred; and at the option of the Mortgagee to the payment of any taxes, assessments or liens claiming priority over the lien of this Deed; and

Second:   To the Pledgee (as defined in the Pledge Agreement) for its distribution in accordance with the provisions of Section 9 of the Pledge Agreement; and

Third:   To the Shipowner or as may be directed by a court of competent jurisdiction.

Section 12. Possession Until Default.  Until one or more of the events of default hereinafter described shall happen, the Shipowner (a) shall be suffered and permitted to retain actual possession and use of the Vessel and (b) shall have the right, from time to time, in its discretion, and without application to the Mortgagee, and without obtaining a release thereof by the Mortgagee, to dispose of, free from the lien hereof, any boilers, engines, machinery, masts, spars, sails, rigging, boats, anchors, chains, tackle, apparel, furniture, fittings or equipment or any other appurtenances of the Vessel that are no longer useful, necessary, profitable or advantageous in the operation of the Vessel, first or simultaneously replacing the same by new boilers, engines, machinery, masts, spars, sails, rigging, boats, anchors, chains, tackle, apparel, furniture, fittings, equipment, or other

appurtenances of substantially equal value to the Shipowner, which shall forthwith become subject to the lien of this Deed as a second priority deed thereon.

Section 13. Severability of Provisions, etc.  (a) If any provision of this Deed should be deemed invalid or shall be deemed to affect adversely the priority status of this Deed or the Mortgage under any applicable law, such provision shall be void and of no effect and shall cease to be a part of this Deed without affecting the remaining provisions, which shall remain in full force and effect.

(b) In the event that the Subsidiaries Guaranty, this Deed, the Mortgage, any of the other Credit Documents or any of the documents or instruments which may from time to time be delivered thereunder or hereunder or any provision thereof or hereof shall be deemed invalidated by present or future law of any nation or by decision of any court, this shall not affect the validity and/or enforceability of all or any other parts of the Subsidiaries Guaranty, this Deed, the Mortgage, any of the other Credit Documents or such documents or instruments and, in any such case, the Shipowner covenants and agrees that, on demand, it will execute and deliver such other and further agreements and/or documents and/or instruments and do such things as the Mortgagee in its sole discretion may reasonably deem to be necessary to carry out the true intent of this Deed, the Mortgage, the Subsidiaries Guaranty and the other Credit Documents.

(c) In the event that the title, or ownership of the Vessel shall be requisitioned, purchased or taken by any government of any country or any department, agency or representative thereof, pursuant to any present or future law, proclamation, decree order or otherwise, the lien of this Deed and the Mortgage shall be deemed to attach to the claim for compensation therefor, and the compensation, purchase or other taking of such title or ownership is hereby agreed to be payable to the Mortgagee who shall be entitled to receive the same and shall apply it as provided in Section 11 of this Article III. In the event of any such requisition, purchase or taking, and the failure of the Mortgagee to receive proceeds as herein provided, the Shipowner shall promptly execute and deliver to the Mortgagee such documents, if any, as in the opinion of the Mortgagee may be necessary or useful to facilitate or expedite the collection by the Mortgagee of such part of the compensation, purchase price, reimbursement or award as is payable to it hereunder.

(d) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, it is intended that nothing herein shall waive the priority status of this Deed and the Mortgage, and if any provision of this Deed or portion thereof shall be construed to waive the priority status of this Deed or the Mortgage, then such provision to such extent shall be void and of no effect.

FORM OF SOLVENCY CERTIFICATE

I,    the undersigned, the Chief Financial Officer of General Maritime Corporation (the “Company”), do hereby certify in such capacity only and not in my individual capacity (and without personal liability) and on behalf of the Company that, based upon facts and circumstances as they exist on the date hereof (and disclaiming any responsibility for changes in such facts and circumstances after the date hereof):

1. This Certificate is furnished to the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders pursuant to Section 12.10(xiv) of the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of May 17, 2012, among the Company, General Maritime Subsidiary II Corporation, as borrower (the “Borrower”), General Maritime Subsidiary Corporation, as a guarantor, Arlington Tankers Ltd., as a guarantor, the Lenders party thereto from time to time, and Nordea Bank Finland plc, New York Branch, as Administrative Agent and as Collateral Agent under the Security Documents (such Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, as in effect on the date of this Certificate, being herein called the “Credit Agreement”). Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used in this Certificate shall have the meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement.

2. For  purposes of this Certificate, the terms below shall have the following definitions:

(a) “Fair Value”

The amount at which the assets, in their entirety, of each of the Company on a stand-alone basis, and the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, would change hands between a willing buyer and a willing seller, within a commercially reasonable period of time, each having reasonable knowledge of the relevant facts, with neither being under any compulsion to act.

(b) “Present Fair Salable Value”

The amount that could be obtained by an independent willing seller from an independent willing buyer if the assets of each of the Company on a stand-alone basis, and the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, are sold with reasonable promptness under normal selling conditions in a current market.

(c) “New Financing”

The Indebtedness incurred or to be incurred by the Company and its Subsidiaries under the Credit Documents and all other financing contemplated by the Credit Documents.

(d) “Stated Liabilities”

The recorded liabilities that would be recorded in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) of the Company on a stand-alone basis

and of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole as of the date hereof, determined in accordance with GAAP consistently applied, together with the amount of all New Financing.

(e) “Identified Contingent Liabilities”

The maximum estimated amount of liabilities reasonably likely to result from pending litigation, asserted claims and assessments, guaranties, uninsured risks and other contingent liabilities of each of the Company on a stand-alone basis, and the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, as identified and explained in terms of their nature and estimated magnitude by responsible officers of the Company and its Subsidiaries or that have been identified as such by an officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

(f) “Will be able to pay its Stated Liabilities and Identified Contingent Liabilities, as they mature”

For the period from the date hereof through the stated maturity of all the New Financing, each of the Company on a stand-alone basis, and the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, will have sufficient assets and cash flow to pay its Stated Liabilities and Identified Contingent Liabilities as those liabilities mature or otherwise become payable.

(g) “Does not have Unreasonably Small Capital”

For the period from the date hereof through the stated maturity of all the New Financing, each of the Company on a stand-alone basis, and the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, after consummation of all Indebtedness being incurred or assumed and Liens created by the Company and its Subsidiaries in connection therewith, is a going concern and has sufficient capital to ensure that it will continue to be a going concern for such period.

3. For purposes of this Certificate, I, or other officers of the Company and its Subsidiaries under my direction and supervision, have performed the following procedures as of and for the periods set forth below.

(a) I have reviewed the financial statements referred to in Section 7.05 of the Credit Agreement.

(b) I have made inquiries of certain officials of the Company and its Subsidiaries who have responsibility for financial and accounting matters regarding the existence and amount of Identified Contingent Liabilities associated with the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

(c) I have knowledge of and have reviewed to my satisfaction the Credit Documents, and the respective Schedules and Exhibits thereto.

2

(d) With respect to Identified Contingent Liabilities, I:

(i) inquired of certain officials of the Company and its Subsidiaries who have responsibility for legal, financial and accounting matters as to the existence and estimated liability with respect to all contingent liabilities known to them; and

(ii) confirmed with officers of the Company and its Subsidiaries that, to the best of such officers’ knowledge, all appropriate items were included in Identified Contingent Liabilities and the amounts relating thereto were the maximum estimated amount of liabilities reasonably likely to result therefrom as of the date hereof.

(e) I have examined the Projections which have been delivered to the Lenders and considered the effect thereon of any changes since the date of the preparation thereof on the results projected therein. After such review, I hereby certify that in my opinion the Projections are reasonable and the Projections support the conclusions contained in paragraph 4 below.

(f) I have made inquiries of certain officers of the Company and its Subsidiaries who have responsibility for financial reporting and accounting matters regarding whether they were aware of any events or conditions that, as of the date hereof, would cause either the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole or the Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, in either case after giving effect to the incurrence of the New Financing, to (i) have assets with a Fair Value or Present Fair Salable Value that are less than the sum of Stated Liabilities and Identified Contingent Liabilities; (ii) have Unreasonably Small Capital; or (iii) not be able to pay its Stated Liabilities and Identified Contingent Liabilities as they mature or otherwise become payable.

4. Based on and subject to the foregoing, I, in my capacity as the chief financial officer of the Company only and not in my individual capacity (and without personal liability), hereby certify on behalf of the Company that, after giving effect to the incurrence of the New Financing, it is my informed opinion that (i) the Fair Value of the assets of each of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole and the Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, is greater than its Stated Liabilities and Identified Contingent Liabilities; (ii) the Present Fair Salable Value of the assets of each of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole and the Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, is greater than its Stated Liabilities and Identified Contingent Liabilities; (iii) each of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole and the Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, will be able to pay its Stated Liabilities and Identified Contingent Liabilities, as they mature or otherwise become payable; and (iv) neither the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole nor the Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, has Unreasonably Small Capital.

FORM OF AMENDED AND RESTATED SUBORDINATION PROVISIONS

Section 1.01. Subordination of Liabilities. [Name of Payor] (the “Payor”), for itself, its successors and assigns, covenants and agrees, and each holder of the Note to which this Annex      is attached (the “Note”) by its acceptance thereof likewise covenants and agrees, that the payment of the principal of, interest on, and all other amounts owing in respect of, the Note (the “Subordinated Indebtedness”) is hereby expressly subordinated, to the extent and in the manner set forth below, to the prior payment in full in cash of all Senior Indebtedness (as defined in Section 1.07 of this Annex        ). The provisions of this Annex      shall constitute a continuing offer to all persons or other entities who, in reliance upon such provisions, become holders of, or continue to hold, Senior Indebtedness, and such holders are made obligees hereunder the same as if their names were written herein as such, and they and/or each of them may proceed to enforce such provisions.

Section 1.02. Payor Not to Make Payments with Respect to Subordinated Indebtedness in Certain Circumstances. (a) Upon the maturity of any Senior Indebtedness (including interest thereon or fees or any other amounts owing in respect thereof), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, all Obligations (as defined in Section 1.07 of this Annex       ) owing in respect of the Senior Indebtedness shall first be paid in full in cash in accordance with the terms thereof, before any payment of any kind or character, whether in cash, property, securities or otherwise, is made on account of the Subordinated Indebtedness.

(b)           The Payor may not, directly or indirectly (and no person or other entity on behalf of the Payor may), make any payment of any Subordinated Indebtedness and may not acquire any Subordinated Indebtedness for cash or property until all Senior Indebtedness has been paid in full in cash if any Default (as defined in the Credit Agreement identified in Section 1.07 herein) or Event of Default (as defined in the Credit Agreement identified in Section 1.07 herein) under the Credit Agreement (as defined in Section 1.07 of this Annex                 ) has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom. Each holder of the Note hereby agrees that, so long as any such Default or Event of Default in respect of any issue of Senior Indebtedness has occurred and is continuing, it will not xxx for, or otherwise take any action to enforce the Payor’s obligations to pay, amounts owing in respect of the Note. Each holder of the Note understands and agrees that to the extent that clause (a) of this Section 1.02 or this clause (b) prohibits the payment of any Subordinated Indebtedness, such unpaid amount shall not constitute a payment default under the Note and the holder of the Note may not xxx for, or otherwise take action to enforce the Payor’s obligation to pay such amount, provided that, other than as provided in Section 1.03(d), such unpaid amount shall remain an obligation of the Payor to the holder of the Note pursuant to the terms of the Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as a Default or Event of Default has not occurred, Payor will be entitled to make (and any person or other entity on behalf of the Payor shall be entitled to make) and holder of any Note will be entitled to receive scheduled payments of principal and interest under the Subordinated Indebtedness.

(c)           In the event that, notwithstanding the provisions of the preceding subsections (a) and (b) of this Section 1.02, the Payor (or any Person on behalf of the Payor) shall make (or the holder of the Note shall receive) any payment on account of the Subordinated

Indebtedness at a time when payment is not permitted by said subsection (a) or (b), such payment shall be held by the holder of the Note, in trust for the benefit of, and shall be paid forthwith over and delivered to, the holders of Senior Indebtedness or their representative or the trustee under the indenture or other agreement pursuant to which any instruments evidencing any Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear (including by giving effect to any intercreditor or subordination arrangements among such holders), for application pro rata to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to pay all Senior Indebtedness in full in cash in accordance with the terms of such Senior Indebtedness, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of Senior Indebtedness.

Section 1.03. Subordination to Prior Payment of All Senior Indebtedness on Dissolution, Liquidation or Reorganization of Payor. Upon any distribution of assets of the Payor upon dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization of the Payor (whether in bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership proceedings or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors or otherwise):

(a)           the holders of all Senior Indebtedness shall first be entitled to receive payment in full in cash of all Senior Indebtedness in accordance with the terms thereof (including, without limitation, post-petition interest at the rate provided in the documentation with respect to the Senior Indebtedness, whether or not such post-petition interest is an allowed claim against the debtor in any bankruptcy or similar proceeding) before the holder of the Note is entitled to receive any payment of any kind or character on account of the Subordinated Indebtedness;

(b)           any payment or distributions of assets of the Payor of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities to which the holder of the Note would be entitled except for the provisions of this Annex     , shall be paid by the liquidating trustee or agent or other person making such payment or distribution, whether a trustee in bankruptcy, a receiver or liquidating trustee or other trustee or agent, directly to the holders of Senior Indebtedness or their representative or representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture under which any instruments evidencing any such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued as their respective interests may appear (including by giving effect to any intercreditor or subordination arrangements among such holders), to the extent necessary to make payment in full in cash of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness;

(c)           in the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 1.03, any payment or distribution of assets of the Payor of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, shall be received by the holder of the Note on account of Subordinated Indebtedness before all Senior Indebtedness is paid in full in cash in accordance with the terms thereof, such payment or distribution shall be received and held in trust for and shall be paid over to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid or their representative or representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture under which any instruments evidencing any of such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear (including

2

by giving effect to any intercreditor or subordination arrangements among such holders, including without limitation the Intercreditor Agreements (as defined in Section 1.08)) for application to the payment of such Senior Indebtedness until all such Senior Indebtedness shall have been paid in full in cash in accordance with the terms thereof, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness; and

(d) unless otherwise agreed by the holder of the Senior Indebtedness, upon the sale of or foreclosure on the equity interests of the Payor to a Person other than the Parent (as defined below) or a Subsidiary of the Parent (whether pursuant to the exercise of foreclosure rights by a Person holding a security interest in such equity interests or otherwise) the Payor shall be automatically released from its obligations under the Note.

Section 1.04. Subrogation. Subject to the prior payment in full in cash of all Senior Indebtedness in accordance with the terms thereof, the holder of the Note shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders of Senior Indebtedness to receive payments or distributions of assets of the Payor applicable to the Senior Indebtedness until all amounts owing on the Note shall be paid in full, and for the purpose of such subrogation no payments or distributions to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness by or on behalf of the Payor or by or on behalf of the holder of the Note by virtue of this Annex      which otherwise would have been made to the holder of the Note shall, as between the Payor, its creditors other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness, and the holder of the Note, be deemed to be payment by the Payor to or on account of the Senior Indebtedness, it being understood that the provisions of this Annex      are and are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the holder of the Note, on the one hand, and the holders of the Senior Indebtedness, on the other hand.

Section 1.05. Obligation of the Payor Unconditional. Nothing contained in this Annex      or in the Note is intended to or shall impair, as between the Payor and the holder of the Note, the obligation of the Payor, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the holder of the Note the principal of and interest on the Note as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms, or is intended to or shall affect the relative rights of the holder of the Note and creditors of the Payor other than the holders of the Senior Indebtedness, nor shall anything herein or therein prevent the holder of the Note from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon an event of default under the Note, subject to the provisions of this Annex      and the rights, if any, under this Annex      of the holders of Senior Indebtedness in respect of cash, property, or securities of the Payor received upon the exercise of any such remedy. Upon any distribution of assets of the Payor referred to in this Annex     , the holder of the Note shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction in which such dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization proceedings are pending, or a certificate of the liquidating trustee or agent or other person making any distribution to the holder of the Note, for the purpose of ascertaining the persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of the Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness of the Payor, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Annex     .

Section 1.06. Subordination Rights Not Impaired by Acts or Omissions of Payor or Holders of Senior Indebtedness. No right of any present or future holders of any Senior

3

Indebtedness to enforce subordination as herein provided shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Payor or by any act or failure to act in good faith by any such holder, or by any noncompliance by the Payor with the terms and provisions of the Note, regardless of any knowledge thereof which any such holder may have or be otherwise charged with. The holders of the Senior Indebtedness may, without in any way affecting the obligations of the holder of the Note with respect hereto, at any time or from time to time and in their absolute discretion, change the manner, place or terms of payment of, change or extend the time of payment of, or renew, increase or otherwise alter, any Senior Indebtedness or amend, modify or supplement any agreement or instrument governing or evidencing such Senior Indebtedness or any other document referred to therein, or exercise or refrain from exercising any other of their rights under the Senior Indebtedness including, without limitation, the waiver of default thereunder and the release of any collateral securing such Senior Indebtedness, all without notice to or assent from the holder of the Note.

Section 1.07. Senior Indebtedness. The term “Senior Indebtedness” shall mean all Obligations (as defined below) of the Payor under, or in respect of (including by reason of any guaranty of), (x) the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of May 17, 2012, as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time (the “Credit Agreement”), by and among General Maritime Corporation (the “Parent”), General Maritime Subsidiary Corporation, General Maritime Subsidiary II Corporation, Arlington Tankers Ltd., the lenders from time to time party thereto, and Nordea Bank Finland plc, New York Branch, as Administrative Agent, and any renewal (as defined in the Credit Agreement), extension, restatement, refinancing or refunding thereof, and (y) each other Credit Document (as defined in the Credit Agreement) to which the Payor is a party. As used herein, the term “Obligation” shall mean any principal, interest, premium, penalties, fees, expenses, indemnities and other liabilities and obligations (including guaranties of the foregoing liabilities and obligations) payable under the documentation governing any Senior Indebtedness (including post-petition interest at the rate provided in the documentation with respect to such Senior Indebtedness, whether or not such interest is an allowed claim against the debtor in any bankruptcy or similar proceeding).

Section 1.08. Intercreditor Agreements. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE PAYOR AND EACH OF THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF (AND ANY EXERCISE THEREOF BY) THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE SUBJECT TO AND GOVERNED BY THE TERMS OF THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF MAY 17, 2012, AMONG GENERAL MARITIME CORPORATION, GENERAL MARITIME SUBSIDIARY CORPORATION, GENERAL MARITIME SUBSIDIARY II CORPORATION, NORDEA BANK FINLAND PLC, NEW YORK BRANCH, AND THE OTHER PARTIES PARTY THERETO FROM TIME TO TIME AND THE SECONDARY INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF MAY 17, 2012, AMONG GENERAL MARITIME CORPORATION, GENERAL MARITIME SUBSIDIARY CORPORATION, GENERAL MARITIME SUBSIDIARY II CORPORATION, NORDEA BANK FINLAND PLC, NEW YORK BRANCH, AND THE OTHER PARTIES PARTY THERETO FROM TIME TO TIME (TOGETHER, THE “INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENTS”).

(b) so long as the Discharge of First Priority Obligations has not occurred, any Lien on the Collateral securing any Second Priority Obligations now or hereafter held by or on behalf of the Second Priority Agent, any Second Priority Creditors, any agent or trustee therefor, regardless of how acquired, whether by grant, possession, statute, operation of law, subrogation or otherwise, shall be junior and subordinate in all respects to all Liens on the Collateral securing any First Priority Obligations. All Liens on the Collateral securing any First Priority Obligations shall be and remain senior in all respects and prior to all Liens on the Collateral securing any Second Priority Obligations for all purposes, whether or not such Liens securing any First Priority Obligations are subordinated to any Lien securing any other obligation of the Borrowers, any other Grantor or any other Person.

2.2. Prohibition on Contesting Liens. Each of the Second Priority Agent, for itself and on behalf of each Second Priority Creditor, and the First Priority Agent, for itself and on behalf of each First Priority Creditor, agrees that it will not (and hereby waives any right to) contest or support any other Person in contesting, in any proceeding (including any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding), (i) the validity or enforceability of any First Priority Collateral Document or Second Priority Collateral Document or any obligation thereunder, (ii) the perfection, priority, validity or enforceability of a Lien held by or on behalf of any of the First Priority Creditors in the First Priority Collateral or by or on behalf of any of the Second Priority Creditors in the Second Priority Collateral, as the case may be, or the provisions of this Agreement, or (iii) the relative rights and duties of the holders of First Priority Obligations or Second Priority Obligations granted and/or established pursuant to this Agreement, any First

13

Priority Collateral Document or any Second Priority Collateral Document that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of the First Priority Agent, any First Priority Creditor, the Second Priority Agent or any Second Priority Creditor, to enforce this Agreement, including the provisions of this Agreement relating to the relative priority of the Liens securing the applicable Obligations as provided in Sections 2.1 and 3.1.

2.3. No New Liens. So long as the Discharge of First Priority Obligations has not occurred, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against any of the Borrowers or any other Grantor, the parties hereto agree that the Borrowers shall not, and shall not permit any other Grantor or any Subsidiary of the Parent to:

(i) grant or permit any additional Liens on any asset or property to secure any Second Priority Obligations unless it has granted or concurrently grants a Lien on such asset or property to secure the First Priority Obligations; or

(ii) grant or permit any additional Liens on any asset or property to secure any First Priority Obligations unless it has granted or concurrently grants a Lien on such asset or property to secure the Second Priority Obligations.

To the extent that the foregoing provisions are not complied with for any reason, without limiting any other rights and remedies available to the First Priority Agent and/or the First Priority Creditors, the Second Priority Agent, on behalf of the Second Priority Creditors, agrees that any amounts received by or distributed to any of them pursuant to or as a result of Liens granted in contravention of this Section 2.3 shall be subject to Section 4.3.

2.4. Similar Liens and Agreements. The parties hereto agree that it is their intention that the First Priority Collateral and the Second Priority Collateral be identical. In furtherance of the foregoing and of Section 9.8, the parties hereto agree, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement:

(a) upon request by the First Priority Agent or the Second Priority Agent to cooperate in good faith (and to direct their counsel to cooperate in good faith) from time to time in order to determine the specific items included in the First Priority Collateral and the Second Priority Collateral and the steps taken to perfect their respective Liens thereon and the identity of the respective parties obligated under the First Priority Loan Documents and the Second Priority Loan Documents; and

(b) that the documents and agreements creating or evidencing the First Priority Collateral and the Second Priority Collateral and guarantees for the First Priority Obligations and the Second Priority Obligations, subject to Section 5.3(c), shall be in all material respects the same forms of documents other than (i) with respect to the first lien and the second lien nature of the Obligations thereunder and (ii) changes with respect to the Collateral Agent as are customary where a collateral agent is acting on behalf of securityholders and is not a lender acting on its own behalf and on behalf of other lenders.

14

SECTION 3.  Enforcement.

3.1. Exercise of Remedies.

(a) Until the Discharge of First Priority Obligations has occurred, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against any of the Borrowers or any other Grantor, the Second Priority Agent and the Second Priority Creditors:

(i) will not Exercise Any Secured Creditor Remedies with respect to the First Priority Collateral (including the exercise of any right of setoff or any right under any lockbox agreement, account control agreement, landlord waiver or bailee’s letter or similar agreement or arrangement to which the Second Priority Agent or any Second Priority Creditor is a party);

(ii) will not contest, protest or object to any Exercise of Secured Creditor Remedies or any Exercise of Unsecured Creditor Remedies relating to the First Priority Collateral under the First Priority Loan Documents or otherwise; and

(iii) except as may be permitted in Section 3.1(c), will not object to the forbearance by the First Priority Agent or the First Priority Creditors from bringing or pursuing any Exercise of Secured Creditor Remedies or any Exercise of Unsecured Creditor Remedies with respect to the First Priority Collateral;

provided that, in the case of (i), (ii) and (iii) above, the Liens on the Collateral granted to secure the Second Priority Obligations of the Second Priority Creditors and the Second Priority Obligations of the Second Priority Creditors shall attach to any proceeds resulting from actions taken by the First Priority Agent or any First Priority Creditor in accordance with this Agreement after application of such proceeds to the extent necessary to meet the requirements of a Discharge of First Priority Obligations. Subject to Section 5.7(b), the First Priority Agent agrees to provide at least ten Business Days’ prior written notice to the Second Priority Agent of its intention to Exercise Any Secured Creditor Remedies; provided, however, that the failure to give any such notice shall not in any way limit its ability to Exercise Any Secured Creditor Remedies to the extent that such Exercise of Secured Creditor Remedies is not otherwise prohibited by the provisions of this Agreement.

(b) (i) Until the Discharge of First Priority Obligations has occurred, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against any of the First Priority Borrower or any other Grantor, but subject to Section 3.1(a)(i), the First Priority Agent and the First Priority Creditors shall have the exclusive right to Exercise Any Secured Creditor Remedies with respect to the Collateral (including set off and the right to credit bid their debt) and make determinations regarding the release, Disposition, or restrictions with respect to the Collateral without any consultation with or the consent of the Second Priority Agent or any Second Priority Creditor; provided that the Lien on the Collateral securing the Second Priority Obligations shall remain on the proceeds of such Collateral released or disposed of subject to the relative priorities described in Section 2. In the Exercise of Secured Creditor Remedies, the First Priority Agent and the First Priority Creditors may enforce the provisions of the First Priority Loan Documents and Exercise Any Secured Creditor Remedies thereunder, all in such order and in such manner as they may determine in the exercise of their sole discretion, subject to the terms of this Agreement. Such exercise and enforcement shall include the rights of an agent appointed by them to sell or otherwise dispose of Collateral upon foreclosure, to incur expenses in

15

connection with such Disposition, and to exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured creditor under the UCC and of a secured creditor under Bankruptcy Laws of any applicable jurisdiction, subject to the terms of this Agreement.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Second Priority Agent and any Second Priority Creditor may:

(1) file a claim, proof of claim or statement of interest with respect to the Second Priority Obligations; provided that an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against any of the Borrowers or any other Grantor;

(2) take any action (not adverse to the priority status of the Liens on the Collateral securing the First Priority Obligations, or the rights of the First Priority Agent or the First Priority Creditors to Exercise Any Secured Creditor Remedies in respect thereof) in order to create, perfect, preserve or protect its Lien on the Collateral;

(3) file any necessary responsive or defensive pleadings in opposition to any motion, claim, adversary proceeding or other pleading made by any person objecting to or otherwise seeking the disallowance of the claims of the Second Priority Creditors, including any claims secured by the Collateral, if any, in each case not in violation of the terms of this Agreement;

(4) file any pleadings, objections, motions or agreements which assert rights or interests available to unsecured creditors of the Grantors arising under either any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or applicable non-bankruptcy law, in each case not in violation of the terms of this Agreement;

(5) vote on any plan of reorganization, file any proof of claim, make other filings and make any arguments and motions that are, in each case, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, with respect to the Second Priority Obligations and the Collateral;

(6) join (but not exercise any control with respect to) any judicial foreclosure proceeding or other judicial lien enforcement proceeding with respect to the Collateral initiated by First Priority Agent to the extent that any such action could not reasonably be expected, in any material respect, to restrain, hinder, limit, delay for any material period or otherwise interfere with the Exercise of Secured Creditor Remedies by First Priority Agent (it being understood that neither the Second Priority Agent nor any Second Priority Creditor shall be entitled to receive any proceeds thereof unless otherwise expressly permitted herein);

(7) engage consultants, valuation firms, investment bankers, and perform or engage third parties to perform audits, examinations and appraisals of the Collateral for the sole purpose valuing the Collateral and not for the purpose of marketing or conducting a disposition of such Collateral; provided, however, that the Second Priority Agent shall not take any of the foregoing actions if they would materially interfere with the Exercise of Secured Creditor Remedies by the First Priority Agent;

16

(8) the filing and pursuit of a lawsuit against the First Priority Agent and/or any First Priority Creditor for breach or non-performance of any payment obligations pursuant hereto;

(9) the imposition of default interest (and interest on interest) under the Second Priority Credit Agreement; and

(10) bidding for (including credit bidding in conjunction with a cash bid sufficient to cause a Discharge of First Priority Obligations) and, if such bidding is successful, purchasing Collateral pursuant to a disposition of Collateral that would constitute an Exercise of Secured Creditor Remedies by the First Priority Agent for a cash purchase price in an amount no less than the amount required to cause the Discharge of First Priority Obligations in full.

The Second Priority Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second Priority Creditors, agrees that it will not take or receive any Collateral or any proceeds of Collateral in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy (including set-off) with respect to any Collateral in its capacity as a creditor in violation of this Agreement.

(d) Subject to Section 3.1(c) and Section 6.3(b):

(1) the Second Priority Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Second Priority Creditors, agrees that the Second Priority Agent and the Second Priority Creditors will not take any action that would hinder any Exercise of Secured Creditor Remedies under the First Priority Loan Documents or is otherwise prohibited hereunder, including any Disposition of Collateral, whether by foreclosure or otherwise;

(2) the Second Priority Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Second Priority Creditors, hereby waives any and all rights it or the Second Priority Creditors may have as a junior lien creditor or otherwise to object to the manner in which the First Priority Agent or the First Priority Creditors seek to enforce or collect the First Priority Obligations or the Liens on the Collateral securing the First Priority Obligations granted in any of the First Priority Collateral undertaken in accordance with this Agreement, regardless of whether any action or failure to act by or on behalf of the First Priority Agent or First Priority Creditors is adverse to the interest of the Second Priority Creditors, except to the extent in violation of this Agreement; and

(3) the Second Priority Agent hereby acknowledges and agrees that no covenant, agreement or restriction contained in the Second Priority Collateral Documents or any other Second Priority Loan Document (other than this Agreement) shall be deemed to restrict in any way the rights and remedies of the First Priority Agent or the First Priority Creditors with respect to the Collateral as set forth in this Agreement and the First Priority Collateral Documents.

(e) Except as otherwise specifically set forth in Section 3.1(c), the Second Priority Agent and the Second Priority Creditors may exercise rights and remedies as unsecured creditors against the Borrowers or any other Grantor that has guaranteed or granted Liens to secure the Second Priority Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Second Priority Loan

17

Documents and applicable law; provided that in the event that any Second Priority Creditor becomes a judgment lien creditor in respect of Collateral as a result of its enforcement of its rights as an unsecured creditor with respect to the Second Priority Obligations, such judgment Lien shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement for all purposes (including in relation to the First Priority Obligations) as the other Liens securing the Second Priority Obligations are subject to this Agreement.

(f) Except as otherwise set forth herein, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the receipt by the Second Priority Agent or any Second Priority Creditors of the required payments of interest, principal and other amounts owed in respect of the Second Priority Obligations, so long as such receipt is not the direct or indirect result of the Exercise of Secured Creditor Remedies (including set off) by the Second Priority Agent or any Second Priority Creditors or enforcement in contravention of this Agreement of any Lien held by any of them. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement impairs or otherwise adversely affects any rights or remedies the First Priority Agent or the First Priority Creditors may have with respect to the First Priority Collateral.

SECTION 4.  Payments.

4.1. Application of Proceeds of Collateral. So long as the Discharge of First Priority Obligations has not occurred, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against any of the First Priority Borrower or any other Grantor, Collateral or proceeds thereof received in connection with the Exercise of Secured Creditor Remedies by the First Priority Agent or First Priority Creditors shall be applied by the First Priority Agent to the First Priority Obligations in such order as specified in the relevant First Priority Loan Documents. Upon the Discharge of First Priority Obligations, the First Priority Agent shall deliver to the Second Priority Agent any Collateral and proceeds of Collateral held by it in the same form as received, with any necessary endorsements or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct to be applied by the Second Priority Agent to the Second Priority Obligations in such order as specified in the Second Priority Collateral Documents.

(iii) Third, any surplus remaining after the payment in full in cash of the amounts described in the preceding clauses will be paid to the Parent, the First Priority Borrower, the Second Priority Borrower and Arlington, as the case may be, their respective successors or assigns, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

So long as the Discharge of First Priority Obligations has not occurred, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against any of the First Priority Borrower or any other Grantor, any Collateral or proceeds thereof (including assets or proceeds subject to Liens referred to in the final sentence of Section 2.3) received by the Second Priority Agent or any Second Priority Creditors in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy (including set off) relating to the Collateral (including, without limitation, as a result of any cash distribution in respect of the Collateral in any such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding) shall be segregated and held in trust and forthwith paid over to the First Priority Agent for the benefit of the First Priority Creditors in the same form as received, with any necessary endorsements or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. The Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to make any such endorsements in the name of Nordea Bank Finland plc, New York Branch, as agent for the Second Priority Agent or any such Second Priority Creditors. This authorization is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable until the Discharge of First Priority Obligations.

SECTION 5.  Other Agreements.

5.1. Releases. (a) Subject to Section 5.7, if in connection with the Exercise of Secured Creditor Remedies by the First Priority Agent in respect of the Collateral provided for in Section 3.1, the First Priority Agent, for itself or on behalf of any of the First Priority Creditors, releases any of its Liens on any part of the Collateral (other than to the extent constituting Pari Passu Collateral Accounts) or releases any Grantor from its obligations under its guaranty of the First Priority Obligations in connection with the sale of the stock, or substantially all the assets, of such Grantor (in each case other than in the case of a release granted in connection with the

19

Discharge of First Priority Obligations), then the Liens, if any, of the Second Priority Agent, for itself or for the benefit of the Second Priority Creditors, on such Collateral, and the obligations of such Grantor under its guaranty of the Second Priority Obligations, shall be automatically, unconditionally and simultaneously released. The Second Priority Agent, for itself or on behalf of any such Second Priority Creditors, promptly shall execute and deliver to the First Priority Agent or such Grantor such termination statements, releases and other documents as the First Priority Agent or such Grantor may reasonably request to effectively confirm such release. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no release shall occur without the consent of the Second Priority Agent for an Exercise of Secured Creditor Remedies as to any Collateral the Net Cash Proceeds of the disposition of which will not be applied to repay and to permanently reduce commitments with respect to the First Priority Obligations and/or the Second Priority Obligations as applicable.

(b) If in connection with a Disposition of Collateral permitted under the terms of the First Priority Loan Documents (including following any waiver granted to permit such Disposition) (other than in connection with the exercise of the First Priority Agent’s remedies in respect of the Collateral provided for in Section 3.1), the First Priority Agent, for itself or on behalf of any of the First Priority Creditors, releases any of its Liens on any part of the Collateral (other than to the extent constituting Pari Passu Collateral Accounts) or releases any Grantor from its obligations under its guaranty of the First Priority Obligations in connection with the sale of the stock, or substantially all the assets, of such Grantor, in each case other than in connection with the Discharge of First Priority Obligations, then the Liens, if any, of the Second Priority Agent, for itself or for the benefit of the Second Priority Creditors, on such Collateral, and the obligations of such Grantor under its guaranty of the Second Priority Obligations shall be automatically, unconditionally and simultaneously released, as long as the Net Cash Proceeds of such Disposition of such Collateral shall be applied to the permanent repayment of First Priority Obligations and/or Second Priority Obligations, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of the First Priority Credit Agreement and/or the Second Priority Credit Agreement, as applicable. The Second Priority Agent, for itself or on behalf of any such Second Priority Creditors, promptly shall execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent or such Grantor such termination statements, releases and other documents as the First Priority Agent or such Grantor may reasonably request to effectively confirm such release.

(c) Until the Discharge of First Priority Obligations occurs, the Second Priority Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Second Priority Creditors, hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the First Priority Agent and any officer or agent of the First Priority Agent, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney in fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of the Second Priority Agent or any such officer or agent in the First Priority Agent’s own name, from time to time in the First Priority Agent’s discretion, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Section 5.1 with respect to the Collateral, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary to accomplish the purposes of this Section 5.1 with respect to the Collateral, including any endorsements or other instruments of transfer or release.

(d) Until the Discharge of First Priority Obligations occurs, to the extent that the First Priority Agent or the First Priority Creditors (i) have released any Lien on Collateral or any Grantor from its obligation under its guaranty and any such Liens or guaranty are later

20

reinstated or (ii) obtain any new liens or additional guarantees from any Grantor, then the Second Priority Agent, for itself and for the Second Priority Creditors, shall be granted a Lien on any such Collateral, subject to the lien subordination provisions of this Agreement, and an additional guaranty, as the case may be.

5.2. Insurance. Unless and until the Discharge of First Priority Obligations has occurred, subject to the terms of, and the rights of the Grantors under, the First Priority Loan Documents, the First Priority Agent and the First Priority Creditors shall have the sole and exclusive right to adjust settlement for any insurance policy covering the Collateral in the event of any loss thereunder and to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding (or any deed in lieu of condemnation) affecting the Collateral. Unless and until the Discharge of First Priority Obligations has occurred, and subject to the rights of the Grantors under the First Priority Loan Documents, all proceeds of any such policy and any such award (or any payments with respect to a deed in lieu of condemnation) shall be paid to the First Priority Agent for the benefit of the First Priority Creditors pursuant to the terms of the First Priority Loan Documents (including, without limitation, for purposes of cash collateralization of letters of credit) and thereafter, to the extent no First Priority Obligations are outstanding, and subject to the rights of the Grantors under the Second Priority Loan Documents, to the Second Priority Agent for the benefit of the Second Priority Creditors to the extent required under the Second Priority Collateral Documents and then, to the extent no Second Priority Obligations are outstanding, to the owner of the subject property, such other Person as may be entitled thereto or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. Until the Discharge of First Priority Obligations has occurred, if the Second Priority Agent or any Second Priority Creditors shall, at any time, receive any proceeds of any such insurance policy or any such award or payment in contravention of this Agreement, it shall segregate and hold in trust and forthwith pay such proceeds over to the First Priority Agent in accordance with the terms of Section 4.3.

5.3. Amendments to First Priority Loan Documents and Second Priority Loan Documents. (a) The First Priority Loan Documents may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified in accordance with their terms and the First Priority Credit Agreement may be Refinanced, in each case, without notice to, or the consent of the Second Priority Agent or the Second Priority Creditors, all without affecting the lien subordination or other provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that:

(i) in the case of a Refinancing, the holders of such Refinancing debt (or an agent for such holders) bind themselves in a writing addressed to the Second Priority Agent and the Second Priority Creditors to the terms of this Agreement, and

(ii) no amendment, supplement or other modification or Refinancing of the First Priority Loan Documents shall be permitted without the consent of the parties hereto if such amendment, supplement or other modification would increase the aggregate principal amount of Indebtedness or lending commitments under the First Priority Credit Agreement above the Maximum First Priority Indebtedness Amount.

(b) The Second Priority Loan Documents may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified in accordance with their terms and the Second Priority Credit Agreement may be Refinanced, in each case, without notice to, or the consent of the First Priority Agent or

21

the First Priority Creditors all without affecting the lien subordination or other provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that:

(i) in the case of a Refinancing, the holders of such Refinancing debt (or an agent for such holders) bind themselves in a writing addressed to the First Priority Agent and the First Priority Creditors to the terms of this Agreement, and

(ii) no amendment, supplement or other modification or Refinancing of the Second Priority Loan Documents shall be permitted without the consent of the parties hereto if such amendment, supplement or other modification would increase the aggregate principal amount of Indebtedness or lending commitments under the Second Priority Credit Agreement above the Maximum Second Priority Indebtedness Amount.

(c) In the event any First Priority Agent or the First Priority Creditors and the relevant Grantor enter into any amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the First Priority Collateral Documents for the purpose of adding to, or deleting from, or waiving or consenting to any departures from any provisions of, any First Priority Collateral Document or changing in any manner the rights of the First Priority Agent, such First Priority Creditors, the First Priority Borrower or any other Grantor thereunder, then such amendment, waiver or consent shall apply automatically to any comparable provision of the Comparable Second Priority Collateral Document without the consent of the Second Priority Agent or the Second Priority Creditors, as applicable, and without any action by the Second Priority Agent, the Borrowers or any other Grantor (and shall, at the request of the First Priority Agent, be documented in writing by the Second Priority Agent and the Second Priority Lenders, as applicable), provided that:

(1) no such amendment, waiver or consent shall have the effect of:

(A) removing or releasing assets subject to the Lien of the Second Priority Collateral Documents, except to the extent that a release of such Lien is permitted or required by Section 5.1 of this Agreement and provided that there is a corresponding release of the Liens securing the First Priority Obligations;

(B) imposing duties on the Second Priority Agent without its consent;

(C) permitting other Liens on the Collateral not permitted under the terms of the Second Priority Loan Documents or Section 6; or

(D) being prejudicial to the interests of the Second Priority Creditors to a greater extent than the First Priority Creditors; and

(2) notice of such amendment, waiver or consent shall have been given to the Second Priority Agent at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the effective date of such amendment, waiver or consent.

22

5.4. Legends.

(a) The Parent and the Grantors agree that each Second Priority Collateral Document shall include the following language (or language to similar effect approved by the First Priority Agent):

“Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the lien and security interest granted to the Second Priority Agent pursuant to this Agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Second Priority Agent hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of May 17, 2012 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Intercreditor Agreement”), among General Maritime Corporation, General Maritime Subsidiary II Corporation, as first priority borrower, General Maritime Subsidiary Corporation, Nordea Bank Finland plc, New York Branch, as First Priority Agent, Nordea Bank Finland plc, New York Branch, as Second Priority Agent and certain other persons party or that may become party thereto from time to time. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control.”

(b) In addition, the Parent and the Borrowers agree that each Second Priority Mortgage covering any Collateral shall contain such other language as the First Priority Agent may reasonably request to reflect the subordination of such Second Priority Mortgage to the First Priority Collateral Document covering such Collateral.

5.5. Bailee for Perfection. Until the Discharge of First Priority Obligations has occurred:

(i) The First Priority Agent as Collateral Agent agrees to hold that part of the Collateral that is in its possession or control (or in the possession or control of its agents or bailees) to the extent that possession or control thereof is taken to perfect a Lien thereon under the UCC, including, but not limited to, the Earnings Accounts (such Collateral being the “Pledged Collateral”) as agent for the First Priority Creditors and as bailee for the Second Priority Agent (such bailment being intended, among other things, to satisfy the requirements of Sections 8-106(d)(3), 8-301(a)(2), 9-106(a) and 9-313(c) of the UCC) and any assignee solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted under the First Priority Loan Documents and the Second Priority Loan Documents, respectively, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5.5.

(ii) The First Priority Agent as Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to the First Priority Creditors, the Second Priority Agent, or any Second Priority Creditor, to ensure that the Pledged Collateral is genuine or owned by any of the Grantors or to preserve rights or benefits of any Person except as expressly set forth in this Section 5.5. The duties or responsibilities of the First Priority Agent under this Section 5.5 shall be limited solely to holding the Pledged Collateral as bailee in accordance with this Section 5.5 and delivering the Pledged Collateral upon a Discharge

23

of First Priority Obligations as provided in paragraph (iv) below.

(iii) The First Priority Agent acting pursuant to this Section 5.5 shall not have by reason of any Collateral Document, this Agreement or any other document a fiduciary relationship in respect of the First Priority Creditors, the Second Priority Agent or any Second Priority Creditor.

(iv) Upon the Discharge of First Priority Obligations, the First Priority Agent shall deliver the remaining Pledged Collateral (if any) together with any necessary endorsements, first, to the Second Priority Agent to the extent Second Priority Obligations remain outstanding, and second, to the Borrowers to the extent no First Priority Obligations or Second Priority Obligations remain outstanding (in each case, so as to allow such Person to obtain possession or control of such Pledged Collateral); provided that, in each case, the First Priority Agent shall be entitled to rely on certifications from the Second Priority Agent or the Borrowers, as the case may be, as to whether any Second Priority Obligations remain outstanding. The First Priority Agent further agrees to take all other action reasonably requested by the Second Priority Agent in connection with the Second Priority Agent obtaining a first priority interest in the Collateral or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

(v) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, so long as the Discharge of First Priority Obligations has not occurred, the First Priority Agent shall be entitled to deal with the Pledged Collateral or Collateral within its “control” in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and other First Priority Collateral Documents as if the Liens of the Second Priority Agent or Second Priority Creditors did not exist.

5.6. When Discharge of First Priority Obligations Deemed to Not Have Occurred. If concurrently with the Discharge of First Priority Obligations, the Parent, the First Priority Borrower or any other Grantor thereafter enters into any Refinancing of any First Priority Loan Document evidencing a First Priority Obligation which Refinancing is permitted hereby, then such Discharge of First Priority Obligations shall automatically be deemed not to have occurred for all purposes of this Agreement (other than with respect to any actions taken as a result of the occurrence of such first Discharge of First Priority Obligations), and, from and after the date on which the First Priority Debt Notice (as defined below) is delivered to the Second Priority Agent in accordance with the next sentence, the obligations under such Refinancing of the First Priority Loan Document shall automatically be treated as First Priority Obligations for all purposes of this Agreement, including for purposes of the Lien priorities and rights in respect of Collateral set forth herein, and the First Priority Agent under such First Priority Loan Documents shall be the First Priority Agent for all purposes of this Agreement. Upon receipt of a notice from the First Priority Borrower or any other Grantor and the First Priority Agent (the “First Priority Debt Notice”) stating that the Parent, the First Priority Borrower or such other Grantor has entered into a new First Priority Loan Document (which notice shall include the identity of the new First Priority Agent, such agent, the “New First Priority Agent”), the Second Priority Agent shall promptly (a) enter into such documents and agreements (including amendments or supplements to this Agreement) as the Parent, the First Priority Borrower, such other Grantor or such New First Priority Agent shall reasonably request in order to provide to the New First Priority Agent the rights contemplated hereby, in each case

24

consistent in all material respects with the terms of this Agreement and (b) deliver to the New First Priority Agent any Pledged Collateral held by it together with any necessary endorsements (or otherwise allow the New First Priority Agent to obtain control of such Pledged Collateral). The New First Priority Agent shall agree in a writing addressed to the Second Priority Agent and the Second Priority Creditors to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. If the new First Priority Obligations under the new First Priority Loan Documents are secured by assets of the Grantors constituting Collateral that do not also secure the Second Priority Obligations, then the Second Priority Obligations shall be secured at such time by a Second Priority Lien on such assets to the same extent provided in the Second Priority Collateral Documents and this Agreement.

5.7. Purchase Right. Without prejudice to the enforcement of any remedy of the First Priority Creditors, so long as a Triggering Event has occurred and is continuing, any of the Second Priority Creditors may, at its sole expense and effort, upon written notice (which notice, subject to the last sentence of this Section 5.7 and with the understanding that such notice will be revocable upon the failure by any First Priority Lender to comply with the provisions contained in this Section 5.7, shall be irrevocable and may only be given by the Second Priority Creditors on one occasion, the “Second Priority Purchase Notice”) to the Borrowers, the Collateral Agent, the First Priority Agent and the Second Priority Agent, require the First Priority Creditors to transfer and assign to such Second Priority Creditors, without warranty or representation or recourse, all (but not less than all) of the First Priority Obligations; provided that (x) the Second Priority Purchase Notice, if any, will be given no more than 10 Business Days after the occurrence of the related Triggering Event and, if the right to purchase the First Priority Obligations is in fact exercised by the Second Priority Creditors, the obligations related to such purchase of First Priority Obligations shall be fulfilled by such Second Priority Creditors within 10 Business Days thereafter, (y) such assignment shall not conflict with any law, rule or regulation or order of any court or other governmental authority having jurisdiction, and (z) such Second Priority Creditors shall have paid to the First Priority Agent, for the account of the First Priority Creditors, in immediately available funds, an amount equal to 100% of such First Priority Obligations then outstanding (which shall include, with respect to the aggregate face amount of the letters of credit outstanding under the First Priority Credit Agreement, an amount in cash equal to the amount of outstanding letters of credit required to be cash collateralized pursuant to the First Priority Documents plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon plus all accrued and unpaid fees (other than any prepayment penalties or premiums other than customary Eurodollar breakage costs (the “First Priority Termination Fees”)) (such amount, the “First Priority Purchase Price”). If the right set forth in this Section 5.7 is exercised, (1) the parties shall endeavor to close promptly thereafter but in any event within 10 Business Days of the notice (or the First Priority Creditors shall no longer be required to transfer any such First Priority Obligations), (2) such purchase of the First Priority Obligations shall be exercised pursuant to documentation mutually acceptable to each of the First Priority Agent and such Second Priority Creditors, and (3) such First Priority Obligations shall be purchased pro rata among the Second Priority Creditors giving notice to the Second Priority Agent of their intent to exercise the purchase option hereunder according to such Second Priority Creditors’ portion of the Second Priority Obligations outstanding on the date of purchase. In order to effectuate the foregoing, the First Priority Agent shall calculate, upon the written request of the Second Priority Agent (acting at the direction of one or more Second Priority Creditors) from time to time, the amount in cash that would be necessary so to purchase the First Priority Obligations. If, for any

25

reason other than a default by the First Priority Creditors, the Second Priority Creditors fail to purchase and pay for the First Priority Obligations after the delivery of the Second Priority Purchase Notice, the Second Priority Creditors shall be liable to the First Priority Creditors for any losses or damages, including fees and disbursements to counsel, incurred by them by reason of such failure to purchase and pay. It is understood that the obligations of each First Priority Lender and each Second Priority Lender are several and not joint, and no First Priority Lender or Second Priority Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other First Priority Lender and/or any Second Priority Lender, as the case may be, of its obligations under the First Priority Credit Agreement and/or the Second Priority Credit Agreement.

SECTION 6.  Insolvency or Liquidation Proceedings.

6.1. Finance and Sale Issues. (a) Until the Discharge of First Priority Obligations has occurred, if any of the First Priority Borrower or any other Grantor shall be subject to any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and the First Priority Agent shall consent in writing to permit the use of “Cash Collateral” (as such term is defined in Section 363(a) of the Bankruptcy Code) which constitute Collateral and on which the First Priority Agent or any other creditor has a Lien or to permit the First Priority Borrower or any other Grantor to obtain financing, whether from the First Priority Creditors or any other Person under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar Bankruptcy Law (“DIP Financing”) then the Second Priority Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second Priority Creditors, agrees that if the conditions set forth in the immediately succeeding sentence are satisfied (x) it will raise no objection to such Cash Collateral use or DIP Financing and (y) it will not request adequate protection or any other relief in connection therewith (except as expressly agreed by the First Priority Agent or to the extent permitted by Section 6.3). The conditions applicable to the agreement in the preceding sentence are as follows: (a) the sum of the aggregate principal amount and the total commitments of the DIP Financing does not exceed $100,000,000, (b) the interest rate, fees, advance rates, lending limits and sublimits are on market terms that are commercially reasonable under the circumstances, and (c) the Liens securing such DIP Financing are pari passu with or superior in priority to the Liens on the Collateral securing the then outstanding First Priority Obligations and are pari passu to the Liens of the Collateral Agent, the First Priority Creditors and the Second Priority Creditors on the Pari Passu Collateral Accounts. To the extent the Liens securing the First Priority Obligations are subordinated to or pari passu with such DIP Financing, the Second Priority Agent shall be deemed to have subordinated its Liens in the Collateral to the Liens securing such DIP Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto), and the Liens securing the Second Priority Obligations shall have the same priority with respect to the Collateral relative to the Liens securing the First Priority Obligations as if such DIP Financing had not occurred.

(b) Nothing in this Section 6.1 limits or impairs the right of Second Priority Agent to object to any motion regarding DIP Financing (including a DIP Financing proposed by one or more First Priority Creditors) or cash collateral to the extent that (i) the DIP Financing does not meet the requirements in Section 6.1(a), or (ii) the objection could be asserted in an Insolvency Proceeding by unsecured creditors generally and is not inconsistent with this Agreement.

6.2. Relief from the Automatic Stay. Until the Discharge of First Priority Obligations has occurred, the Second Priority Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second Priority

26

Creditors, agrees that it shall not seek (or support any other Person seeking) relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the Collateral, without the prior written consent of the First Priority Agent.

6.3. Adequate Protection. (a) The Second Priority Agent, on behalf of itself and the Second Priority Creditors, agrees that it shall not contest (or support any other Person contesting):

(i) any request by the First Priority Agent or the First Priority Creditors for adequate protection with respect to the Collateral; or

(ii) a
