Dear Sirs

Supplemental Letter

1	We refer to the loan agreement dated 1 March 2006 (the “Loan Agreement”) made between (1) Marinouki Shipping Corporation as borrower (the “Borrower”) and (2) The Royal Bank of Scotland plc as lender (the “Bank”), pursuant to which the Bank agreed (inter alia) to make available to the Borrower a multicurrency loan of Thirty Million Four Hundred Thousand Dollars ($30,400,000) upon the terms and conditions contained therein.
2	Words and expressions defined in the Loan Agreement shall, unless the context otherwise requires, have the same meaning where used in this Letter.
3	As of 19 March 2008 (the “Crystalisation Date”) the Equivalent Amount in Dollars of the Loan then outstanding (less any amount standing to the credit of the Cash Collateral Account) exceeded by Four Million Dollars ($4,000,000) (the “Excess Amount”) the Dollar Amount of the Loan.
4	The Bank and the Borrower hereby agree that, with effect from the Crystalisation Date, the Bank hereby increases the Commitment by the amount of $4,000,000 and such amount is hereby deemed drawn down under the Loan Agreement, so that such Excess Amount be deemed to constitute part of the Loan.
5	The Bank and the Borrower hereby further agree that the Borrower shall repay the outstanding amount of the Loan as of the date of this Letter (being the amount of $32,620,000, comprising (a) the balance of $28,620,000 prior to the increase of the Commitment referred to above and (b) the additional amount of $4,000,000 which is deemed drawn down under clause 6 above) by twenty (20) consecutive repayment instalments, one such instalment to be repaid on each of the Repayment Dates falling after the date of this Letter. Subject to the provisions of the Loan Agreement, the amount of each of the first and second such instalments shall be $545,000 or the equivalent amount in an Optional Currency calculated in accordance with clause 5.7, the amount of each of the third to the eighth such instalments (inclusive) shall be $767,000 or the equivalent amount in an Optional Currency calculated in accordance with clause 5.7, the amount of each of the ninth to the nineteenth such instalments (inclusive) shall be $877,000 or the equivalent amount in an Optional Currency calculated in accordance with clause 5.7 and the amount of the last such instalment shall be $17,281,000 or the equivalent amount in an Optional Currency calculated in accordance with clause 5.7 (comprising a repayment instalment of $877,000 and a balloon payment of $16,404,000 (or their equivalent amounts in an Optional Currency calculated in accordance with clause 5.7)).
6	The Bank and the Borrower agree that clause 5 of this Letter shall replace clause 5.1 of the Loan Agreement.

8	The Bank and the Borrower agree that the arrangements and agreements set out in this Letter shall become effective immediately upon (a) execution by the Borrower and the Manager of this Letter signifying their agreement to its terms and (b) delivery by the Borrower to the Bank of such corporate authorisations of the Borrower in respect of this Letter as may be required by the Bank and its legal advisors in their discretion.
