[1] Average TCE earnings, gross is a non-U.S. GAAP measure of the average daily

revenue performance of a vessel. Average TCE earnings, gross, when used by the

Company, means time charter revenues and voyage charter revenues adding back

address commissions, and divided by fleet operational days. Our management

believes average TCE earnings, gross can provide additional meaningful

information for investors to analyze our fleets' daily income performance. Our

calculation of such figure may not be comparable to that reported by other

companies. Please see Appendix A for reconciliation of this measure to the

nearest U.S. GAAP measure.
