[1]Average TCE earnings 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 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.
