ITEM 1. BUSINESS Overseas Shipholding Group, Inc. (the "registrant") and its subsidiaries (collectively the "Company") constitute a major international shipping enterprise owning and operating a diversified fleet of oceangoing bulk cargo vessels (principally tankers and dry bulk carriers). The Company's operating bulk fleet consists of 58 vessels having an aggregate carrying capacity of approximately 5,434,700 deadweight tons ("DWT"), including ten ships aggregating approximately 1,536,300 DWT which the Company owns jointly with others and in which the Company has at least a 49% interest.* Sixteen vessels in the Company's operating bulk fleet, which total approximately 993,350 DWT and represent about 30% of the Company's investment in bulk cargo vessels at cost, are registered under the U.S. flag; the balance are registered under foreign flags. Thirty-nine tankers account for 73% of the total tonnage, and 18 dry bulk carriers and a pure car carrier account for the remainder. A single company and its subsidiaries, for and under the direction and control of the Company, act as agents in respect of the bulk fleet of the registrant's majority-owned subsidiaries and certain of its bulk shipping joint ventures. - ---------------- * Except as otherwise noted, references herein to the Company's "operating bulk fleet" are as of March 7, 1994 and denote the 58 vessels referred to above, including eight vessels that are leased from financial institutions under bareboat charters having remaining terms of from 8 to 18 years, but do not include a 29,300 DWT petroleum barge, which is owned by a partnership in which the Company has a 50% interest, a 50%-owned 252,350 DWT tanker contracted for sale in February 1994 (scheduled to be delivered to the buyer upon completion of a charter at the end of March 1994), or the six vessels more fully described under "Vessels on Order" below. The Company's passenger cruise business joint venture which the Company entered into in October 1992, Celebrity Cruise Lines Inc. ("CCLI"), owns and operates five cruise ships marketed under the trade names of Celebrity Cruises and Fantasy Cruises. As of March 7, 1994, CCLI had on order two 1,760-passenger cruise ships scheduled for delivery in late 1995 and 1996, respectively, and held an option for a third sistership (which it has since exercised), all for the Celebrity fleet. See "Investment in Cruise Business" below. The Company's operating bulk fleet, aggregating approximately 5,434,700 DWT, represents approximately 1% of the total world tonnage of oceangoing bulk cargo vessels. At January 1, 1994, the average age of the Company's international fleet as well as its international tanker fleet (in each case excluding non-Company interests in jointly-owned ships) was approximately 11.5 years compared with reported worldwide averages of approximately 13 years for each fleet. As of March 7, 1994, the Company had on order six double-hulled tankers, aggregating nearly one million DWT of newbuildings, for delivery to its international bulk fleet. See "Vessels on Order" below. The Company charters its ships to commercial shippers and U.S. and foreign governmental agencies for the carriage of bulk commodities, principally crude oil and petroleum products, coal, iron ore and grain. Generally, each ship is chartered for a specific period of time ("time charter"), or for a specific voyage or voyages ("voyage charter"). Under the terms of time and voyage charters covering the Company's vessels, the ships are equipped and operated by the Company and are manned by personnel in the Company's employ. From time to time, the Company also has some of its vessels on bareboat charter. Under the terms of bareboat charters, the ships are chartered for fixed periods of time (generally medium-or long-term) during which they are operated and manned by the charterer. Generally, the Company's ships engage in carriage of cargo in various parts of the world, principally in carriage of petroleum from Alaska to the lower 48 states and U.S. territories, from Caribbean ports to United States, South American and European ports, from Mediterranean, West African, Arabian Gulf and Far East ports to European, United States, Caribbean, South American and Far East ports, and in the United States coastwise trade, and in carriage of dry cargo between United States ports and the Far East, between United States East Coast and Gulf ports and European, Mediterranean, Black Sea and Baltic ports, between South American and various European, Black Sea and Baltic ports, and from Australia to Japan, Korea and European ports. The Company does not employ any container or similar vessels in its operation. Revenues from carriage of petroleum and its derivatives represented approximately 75% of the voyage revenues of the registrant and its majority-owned subsidiaries for 1993, 78% for 1992 and 75% for 1991. Revenues from carriage of dry cargo accounted for the balance of such voyage revenues for each of those years. The carriage of petroleum and its derivatives also accounted for the majority of the voyage revenues of the Company's bulk shipping joint ventures. The relative contributions to voyage revenues of the various types of cargoes carried may vary from year to year, depending upon demand for particular kinds of carriage and the purposes for which and the terms on which the ships are chartered. As of March 28, 1994, with the exception of three U.S.- flag crude oil carriers and one U.S.-flag dry bulk carrier, all of the vessels in the Company's operating bulk fleet were employed. Fifty of these vessels were chartered to non-governmental commercial shippers. These 50 ships include nine U.S.-flag ships and 41 foreign-flag ships, which together represent approximately 89% of the combined carrying capacity of the Company's operating bulk fleet. Of the remaining ships in the Company's operating bulk fleet, three U.S.-flag ships and two foreign-flag ships were under charter to foreign governmental agencies. U.S.-FLAG AND FOREIGN-FLAG OPERATIONS - ------------------------------------- The Company's U.S.-flag and foreign-flag bulk fleets operate substantially in separate markets. The Company believes that ownership of a diversified fleet, with vessels of different flags, types and sizes and with operating flexibility, enables the Company to take advantage of chartering opportunities for domestic and international shipment of bulk commodities and thereby cushion the effects of weakness in particular markets. Information about the Company's operations under U.S. and foreign flags for the three years ended December 31, 1993 is set forth in the table in Note B to the Company's financial statements incorporated by reference in Item 8 below. For information regarding the revenues and net income of the Company's bulk shipping joint ventures for the three years ended December 31, 1993, see Note E to the Company's financial statements incorporated by reference in Item 8 below. In each of the years 1993, 1992 and 1991 the Company had one charterer (BP Oil Company, USA) from which it had revenues in excess of 10% of revenues from voyages, amounting in 1993 to approximately $73.7 million, in 1992 to approximately $84.3 million, and in 1991 to approximately $65 million. U.S. DOMESTIC AND PREFERENCE TRADES - ----------------------------------- Shipping between United States coastal ports, including the movement of Alaskan oil, is reserved by law primarily to U.S.- flag vessels owned by U.S. citizens, crewed by U.S. seafarers, and built in the United States without construction subsidies and operated without operating differential subsidies. The Company owns the largest independent fleet of unsubsidized ("Jones Act") U.S.-flag tankers and is a major participant in the Alaskan oil trade. Demand for tonnage in the Alaskan oil trade depends on the volume of crude shipped out of Alaska and its distribution to ports at varying distances from the source. In recent years, the amount of crude shipped on the long-haul route to the Gulf of Mexico has fallen sharply, and this development has reduced tonnage requirements. Alaskan crude oil shipments provide the main source of employment for U.S.-flag crude carriers and is shipped mostly on unsubsidized U.S.-flag crude carriers of over 60,000 DWT. Exports of Alaskan crude oil have been restricted by law since 1973. Additional, more stringent limitations were incorporated in the Export Administration Act of 1979, which has been extended to June 30, 1994. A lawsuit brought by the State of Alaska challenging the legality of these export restrictions was recently dismissed by the Federal District Court. By law, vessels built with construction differential subsidies and operated with operating differential subsidies ("ODS") have not been permitted in the Jones Act trade. Under a recent Maritime Administration interpretation, product tankers and crude carriers built with subsidies may be eligible for full coastwise privileges when they reach 20 years of age and their ODS contracts expire. The Company believes that this interpretation is contrary to law and has commenced litigation seeking to overrule it. Should the lawsuit fail, it is possible that several older product and crude carriers may enter the coastwise trade over the next few years. United States military cargo must be transported on U.S.- flag vessels, if available. The Merchant Marine Act, 1936, as amended, requires that preference be given to U.S.-flag vessels, if available at reasonable rates, in the shipment of at least half of all U.S. government-generated cargoes and 75% of food-aid cargoes. Half of the imports into the Strategic Petroleum Reserve ("SPR"), a U.S. government procurement program, must be transported on U.S.- flag vessels. Vessels in the Company's operating bulk fleet have been chartered from time to time to the Military Sealift Command of the United States Navy ("MSC"), and to recipient nations for the carriage of grain under United States foreign aid and agricultural assistance programs. Charters to MSC reflect in large part the requirements of the United States military for waterborne carriage of cargoes, and, accordingly, depend in part on world conditions and United States foreign policy. EMPLOYMENT OF VESSELS - --------------------- The bulk shipping industry is highly fragmented and competitive. The Company competes in its charter operations with other owners of U.S. and foreign-flag tankers and dry cargo ships operating on an unscheduled basis similar to the Company and, to some extent, with owners operating cargo ships on a scheduled basis. About one third of the world's tanker tonnage is owned by oil companies and is primarily engaged in the carriage of proprietary cargoes. In chartering vessels to the United States government, the Company competes primarily with other owners of U.S.-flag vessels. U.S.-flag product carriers, whose trade demands are closely linked to changes in regional energy demands and in refinery activity, also compete with pipelines, oceangoing barges, and, with regard to imports from abroad, foreign-flag product carriers. In the spot and short-term charter market, the Company's vessels compete with all other vessels of a size and type required by a charterer that can be available at the date specified. In the spot market, competition is based primarily on price. Nevertheless, within a narrow price band, factors related to quality of service and safety enter into a potential customer's decision as to which vessel to charter. Prevailing rates for charters of particular types of ships are subject to fluctuations depending on conditions in United States and international bulk shipping markets and other factors. The Company endeavors to minimize the effects of periods of weakness in its markets by pursuing a chartering policy that favors medium- and long-term charters, thereby avoiding, to some extent, the sharp rate fluctuations characteristic of the spot or voyage markets. In recent years, the availability of medium- to long-term business has been relatively limited, and, when available, rates of return have generally been unattractive. While price also dominates the customer's chartering decision in the long-term charter market, quality of service, safety and financial strength play a more important role because of the length of commitment the charterer is making. The Company believes this developing emphasis on safety and financial strength is advantageous for the Company and that many customers, including many of the world's major oil companies, prefer to limit longer term business to well respected owners such as the Company. For additional information as of March 7, 1994 regarding the 58 vessels in the Company's operating bulk fleet, including information as to the employment of such vessels, see the table in the "To Our Shareholders" section (page 2), and the "International Bulk Fleet" and "U.S. Bulk Fleet" tables in the "Review of the Fleet" section (page 22), of the registrant's Annual Report to Shareholders for 1993, which tables are incorporated herein by reference. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS RELATING TO BULK SHIPPING - ----------------------------------------------- During the past five years, the tanker business has experienced a more stringent regulatory environment, a greater emphasis on quality, and more inspections by governmental authorities and charterers. It is anticipated that in the coming years these trends will make it increasingly difficult for poorly maintained ships to find employment. The added environmental and quality concerns on the part of governmental authorities and charterers are anticipated to impose greater inspection and safety requirements and to accelerate scrapping of older vessels. OPA 90. The Oil Pollution Act of 1990 ("OPA 90") significantly expands the liability of a vessel owner or operator (including a bareboat charterer), for damage resulting from spills in U.S. waters (up to 200 miles offshore). OPA 90 applies to all U.S. and foreign-flag vessels. Under OPA 90, a vessel owner or operator is liable without fault for removal costs and damages, including economic loss without physical damage to property, up to $1,200 per gross ton of the vessel. The Company's largest vessel measures 144,139 gross tons; therefore, the theoretical liability limit for that vessel would be $173 million. When a spill is proximately caused by gross negligence, willful misconduct or a violation of a Federal safety, construction or operating regulation, liability is unlimited. OPA 90 did not preempt state law, and therefore states remain free to enact legislation imposing additional liability. Virtually all coastal states have enacted pollution prevention, liability and response laws, many with some form of unlimited liability. In addition, OPA 90 imposes a requirement that tankers calling at U.S. ports have double hulls. This requirement applies to newly constructed tankers contracted for after June 30, 1990, or delivered after January 1, 1994. Beginning on January 1, 1995, the double-hull requirement is phased in for existing tankers. The age requirement is reduced in stages so that by the year 2000, tankers of at least 30,000 gross tons over 23 years old (and tankers between 15,000 and 30,000 gross tons over 30 years old) must have double hulls, and by 2010, all tankers must have double hulls, except that tankers with double bottoms or double sides are afforded an additional five years for compliance but must comply no later than January 1, 2015. Tankers discharging at a deepwater port or lightering more than 60 miles offshore will not be required to have double hulls until January 1, 2015. The double-hull requirement will not begin to affect the Company's existing tanker fleet until near the end of the decade, with most of the Company's vessels not affected until the next decade. Each of the 16 vessels in the Company's current fleet to which the double-hull requirements are expected to apply in the next ten years will be at least 23 years old on the applicable double-hull requirement date and consequently near the end of its economic life. OPA 90 also requires owners and operators of vessels calling at U.S. ports to adopt contingency plans for responding to a worst case oil spill under adverse weather conditions. The plans must include contractual commitments with clean-up response contractors in order to ensure an immediate response to an oil spill. Furthermore, training programs and drills for vessel, shore and response personnel are required. The Company has developed and timely filed its vessel response plans with the United States Coast Guard and has received preliminary approval of such plans. OPA 90 requires that an owner demonstrate its ability to meet OPA 90's liability limits in accordance with regulations promulgated by the Coast Guard. While most owners would expect to meet such requirements by supplying evidence of adequate insurance coverage, currently proposed Coast Guard regulations would not deem such coverage sufficient unless the insurer consents to be subject to direct third-party suits in the United States, which the major insurers to date have declined to do. Although it is not possible to predict the outcome of the pending rulemaking, the Company believes that it will be able to establish its financial responsibility under the regulations as finally adopted. Until final regulations are promulgated, owners continue to be able to establish evidence of financial responsibility under existing regulations. OPA 90 and regulations as well as various state laws and regulations have increased the cost of operating, insuring and building ships for operation in U.S. waters. The owners of all vessels that sail in U.S. waters will be subject to these increased costs, and therefore the Company does not expect to be disadvantaged relative to its competition. International Requirements for Double-Hulled Vessels. The International Maritime Organization ("IMO") adopted regulations requiring double hulls on all oil tankers over 20,000 DWT and all product tankers over 30,000 DWT for which building contracts are placed after July 5, 1993 or, in the absence of a building contract, that have keels laid after January 5, 1994, or that are delivered after July 5, 1996. Additionally, the regulations require that any oil tanker over 20,000 DWT and any product tanker over 30,000 DWT existing on July 6, 1995 that is not subject to the requirements for newbuilding set forth in the previous sentence must have a double hull not later than 25 years after the date of its delivery, unless it is fitted with segregated ballast tanks or is designed so that loaded cargo does not exert outward pressure on the vessel's bottom shell plating in excess of the external hydrostatic water pressure (hydrostatically balanced loading), in which case the vessel need not comply with the double-hull requirement until 30 years after the date of its delivery. In addition, more stringent surveys of steel condition have been instituted for existing vessels. These requirements will apply to all vessels trading to ports in countries that are parties to the International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution by Ships, as amended ("MARPOL"), which include the world's major trading countries. The United States has reserved its position on the IMO regulations. Since the schedule for phasing in the double-hull requirements under the IMO regulations is in certain instances faster and in certain instances slower than the requirements under OPA 90, if the United States does not accept the IMO regulations, tankers trading between U.S. ports and ports in countries that are parties to MARPOL will have to meet the requirements of the earlier of the two to apply. The Company believes that as the double-hull requirements imposed by U.S. law and international conventions become applicable, some older vessels will be scrapped. The impact of the double-hull requirements of the IMO regulations on the Company's vessels will not be significantly different from the impact of the double-hull requirements of OPA 90. INSURANCE. Consistent with the currently prevailing practice in the industry, the Company presently carries a minimum of $700 million of pollution coverage per occurrence on every vessel in its fleet. While the Company has historically been able to obtain such insurance at commercially reasonable rates, no assurances can be given that such insurance will continue to be so available in the future. BULK SHIPPING MARKETS - --------------------- Information regarding the international bulk shipping markets and the markets for U.S.-flag vessels, including the Alaskan oil trade, is set forth in the text of the "Global Bulk Shipping Markets" section (pages 14 through 17) of the registrant's Annual Report to Shareholders for 1993, which information is incorporated herein by reference. CHANGES IN THE BULK FLEET - ------------------------- SALES: As part of the Company's ongoing modernization program, the Company in 1993 sold two foreign-flag single-hulled 97,800 DWT tankers, and two older foreign-flag 34,400 DWT dry bulk carriers. In the first quarter of 1994, a foreign-flag 28,950 DWT dry bulk carrier was sold, and a 50%-owned older foreign-flag single-hulled 252,350 DWT tanker was contracted for sale (scheduled to be delivered to the buyer upon completion of a charter at the end of March 1994). VESSELS ON ORDER: In 1993, the Company placed orders for two double-hulled 295,250 DWT tankers, scheduled for delivery in 1995. With the four double-hulled 93,650 DWT tankers ordered in 1991 which are all scheduled for delivery by year-end 1994 (one of which was delivered on March 10, 1994), the Company's newbuilding program aggregated nearly 1 million DWT. All of these six ships are being built by a major South Korean shipbuilder for delivery to the Company's international fleet. The commitments for these six vessels are in U.S. Dollars; for additional information as of March 7, 1994 about the commitments, see Note L(1) to the Company's financial statements incorporated by reference in Item 8 below. The Company's newbuilding program, together with the selective upgrading of the Company's fleet through acquisition and disposition of existing tonnage, reflects changes that the Company makes from time to time in light of its continuing review of changing market conditions. There is no assurance that the Company's fleet will expand, or that the Company will acquire vessels or place orders for the construction of new vessels, to the same extent as in the past. EMPLOYEES - --------- At March 7, 1994, the Company employed approximately 1,955 seagoing personnel to operate its ships. The Company has collective bargaining agreements with three different maritime unions, covering seagoing personnel employed on the Company's U.S.- flag vessels, which agreements are in effect through June 15, 1996 with one of the unions and through June 15, 1994 with two of the unions. Under the collective bargaining agreements, the Company is obligated to make contributions to pension and other welfare programs. The Company believes that its relations with its employees are satisfactory. U.S. SUBSIDIES - -------------- To encourage private investment in U.S.-flag ships, the Merchant Marine Act of 1970 permits deferral of taxes on earnings deposited into capital construction funds and amounts earned thereon, which can be used for the construction or acquisition of, or retirement of debt on, qualified U.S.-flag vessels (primarily those limited to United States foreign and noncontiguous domestic trades). The registrant is a party to an agreement under the Act. Under the agreement, the general objective is (by use of assets accumulated in the fund) for two vessels to be constructed or acquired by the end of 1999. If the agreement is terminated or amounts are withdrawn from the capital construction fund for non- qualified purposes, such amounts will then be subject to Federal income taxes. Provision has been made in the Company's financial statements for deferred taxes on the amounts deposited in the capital construction fund and on the earnings thereon. Monies can remain tax deferred in the fund for a maximum period of twenty-five years (commencing January 1, 1987 for deposits prior thereto). See the second paragraph of Note J to the Company's financial statements incorporated by reference in Item 8 below. The Company does not receive any operating differential subsidies or any construction differential subsidies under the Merchant Marine Act, 1936, as amended. FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS - -------------------- In December 1993, the registrant successfully completed a $200 million public offering of 8%, 10-year notes and 8.75%, 20- year debentures. These securities were rated investment grade by Standard & Poor's. In early March 1994, the registrant completed a public offering of 3,450,000 shares of its common stock, all of which were newly issued by the registrant. This represents the registrant's first issuance of equity since 1972. Since early 1992, the Company has raised more than $580 million of long-term debt and equity capital through these recent public offerings and through two private placements. INVESTMENT IN CRUISE BUSINESS - ----------------------------- In October 1992, the Company invested cash of approximately $220 million for 49% of the equity of Celebrity Cruise Lines Inc. ("CCLI"), a joint venture with the Chandris Cruise Division (an established cruise line operator unrelated to the Company) that owns and operates five cruise vessels contributed to it by the co-venturer. Three of the cruise ships are marketed under the trade name of Celebrity Cruises and two are marketed under the trade name of Fantasy Cruises. In May 1993, the Company invested additional cash of approximately $2.7 million upon the final determination by CCLI's shareholders of the value of certain of its assets. Pursuant to the related agreements, CCLI functions as an equal joint venture and the approval of both shareholders is required for all substantive policy matters. All debt of the joint venture is non-recourse to the joint venture partners. It is anticipated that CCLI's earnings will be reinvested in the cruise business, and accordingly the Company has made no provision for U.S. income taxation with respect to its share of CCLI's earnings. During 1993, CCLI's first full year of operation, CCLI contracted to build two 1,760-passenger cruise ships which are scheduled for delivery in late 1995 and the Fall of 1996, respectively, and obtained an option for a third sistership, each at a contract price of approximately $317.5 million. These vessels, designated as CCLI's new "Century" series, are all for the Celebrity Cruises fleet, which serves the premium segment of the cruise market. The contracts are with the same German shipyard which built the two most recently delivered new ships in the Celebrity fleet. The contracts provide for shipyard arranged long- term bank financing to CCLI for a substantial portion of the cost of each vessel. For additional information about CCLI and its fleets and the CCLI commitments as of March 7, 1994, see the text of the "CCLI" section (pages 18 through 20), including the CCLI fleet table (page 18), and the CCLI fleet table in the "Review of the Fleet" section (page 22) of the registrant's Annual Report to Shareholders for 1993, which information is incorporated herein by reference, and Note D to the Company's financial statements incorporated by reference in Item 8 below. In March 1994, CCLI exercised its option mentioned above to build the third 1,760-passenger cruise ship in its "Century" series. Upon delivery of this third sistership, scheduled for the Fall of 1997, CCLI's present passenger-carrying capacity in the premium segment of the cruise market will have more than doubled to over 9,000 berths. COMPETITION. The cruise industry has evolved from a trans- ocean carrier service into a vacation alternative to land-based resorts and sightseeing destinations. The North American passenger cruise industry dominates the worldwide cruise market; it has experienced substantial growth over the past 25 years. The North American cruise market, which is the market in which CCLI's ships primarily operate, is characterized by large and generally well-capitalized companies and is highly competitive. There are four companies in the industry each of which has a fleet with an aggregate number of berths in excess of 10,000, substantially more berths than CCLI's current fleet. Larger capacity affords fleet owners certain economies of scale. According to recently published data, the top six companies, including CCLI, have approximately 68% of total capacity and the top fifteen companies have approximately 94% of total capacity. Cruise lines compete with other vacation alternatives such as land-based resort hotels and sightseeing destinations for consumers' discretionary income. The amount of discretionary income spent on vacations is influenced by general economic conditions. Within the cruise industry, competition is primarily based on product quality, itinerary and price. Product quality is a function of ship design, onboard facilities, amenities, service and cuisine. REGULATORY MATTERS. Each ship is subject to regulations of its country of registry, including regulations issued pursuant to international treaties governing the safety of the ship and its passengers. Each country of registry conducts periodic inspections to verify compliance with these regulations. In addition, ships operating from U.S. ports are subject to inspection by the U.S. Coast Guard for compliance with international treaties and by the U.S. Public Health Service for sanitary conditions. With respect to passengers to and from U.S. ports, CCLI is required to obtain certificates from the U.S. Federal Maritime Commission and the U.S. Coast Guard relating to its ability to satisfy liabilities arising out of nonperformance of obligations to passengers, casualty or personal injury and water pollution. The Company believes CCLI is in compliance with all material regulations applicable to its ships and has all licenses necessary for the conduct of its business. The International Maritime Organization's SOLAS 1974 convention, which became effective in 1980 and was last amended in 1992, established minimum safety, fire prevention and fire fighting standards (the "SOLAS '74 standards"). Under the amended SOLAS requirements, by October 1, 1997 all passenger ships must have upgraded fire detection and fire fighting systems. The schedule for compliance with certain other aspects of the amended requirements for passenger vessels currently meeting SOLAS '74 standards extends until 2005 or 15 years after construction, whichever is later. Since substantial capital expenditures may be needed to bring older vessels into compliance with the SOLAS requirements that become applicable in 1997, it is likely that some ships for which such capital expenditures would not be economical will be removed from the market. Two of CCLI's Celebrity vessels were delivered in 1990 and 1992, respectively, and the third was rebuilt in 1990. Based on present estimates, any work necessary for these vessels to meet SOLAS requirements applicable in 1997 can be done without material capital expenditures. Whether the two Fantasy vessels will be refitted to bring them into compliance with the 1997 SOLAS requirements will be determined at a later date. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES ---------- See Item 1. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS ----------------- The Company is a party, as plaintiff or defendant, to various suits for monetary relief arising principally from personal injuries, collision or other casualty and to claims arising under charter parties, in each case in the ordinary course of business. All such personal injury, collision and casualty claims against the Company are fully covered by insurance (subject to deductibles not material in amount). Each of the other claims involves an amount which in the opinion of management is not material in relation to the consolidated current assets of the Company as shown in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet as at December 31, 1993, incorporated herein by reference.

FSTATE.8 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS To the Shareholders Overseas Shipholding Group, Inc. We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Overseas Shipholding Group, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1993 and 1992 and the related consolidated statements of income and retained earnings and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1993. Our audit also included the financial statement schedules listed in the Index at Item 14(a). These financial statements and schedules are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedules based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Overseas Shipholding Group, Inc. and subsidiaries at December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1993 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein. As discussed in Note A6 to the consolidated financial statements, in 1992, the Company changed its method of accounting for income taxes, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes."

CELEBRITY CRUISE LINES INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 1993 and 1992 1. Organization Celebrity Cruise Lines Inc. ("Company"), a Cayman Islands corporation, was formed pursuant to agreements dated September 23, 1992 which became effective October 1, 1992. The agreements provide that the Company be operated as an equal joint venture and that all substantive policy matters be approved by both stockholders ("Approval Requirement"). In October 1992, the Chandris Group ("Chandris") contributed net assets valued (subject to final determination by the shareholders - see below) pursuant to the terms of the joint venture agreement at $227,888,346 in exchange for all of the Company's Class C shares (51% of the Company's equity) and Overseas Shipholding Group, Inc. ("OSG") contributed cash of $218,951,546 for all of the Company's Class O shares (49% of the Company's equity). The Class C shares and the Class O shares each carry one vote (subject to the Approval Requirement) and rank pari passu in all material respects. Liabilities of Chandris assumed included long-term debt and an obligation to pay for a 50% interest in two of the vessels (which obligation was paid). The aforementioned net assets contributed by Chandris included six vessels, intangibles and certain other assets, the latter valued, for the purpose of determining the capital contributions by the stockholders, by a method specified in the joint venture agreement. In May 1993 a final determination of the value of the net assets contributed by Chandris was made and an additional $2,845,117 was credited to capital as a result thereof; accordingly, OSG contributed to capital an additional $2,733,542 in cash. From October 1, 1992 to December 31, 1992 certain services related to sales, marketing and the operation of the vessels were provided by related entities (see Note 4). Effective January 1, 1993 the Company acquired the net assets (the amount of which was not material) of these entities for consideration which was not material. The net assets acquired included a 40% interest in a corporate joint venture. These services are being performed by subsidiaries of the Company and the joint venture since January 1, 1993. 2. Significant Accounting Policies (a)The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company's investment in a joint venture (see Note 1) is accounted for by the equity method. The Company's equity in the net income of the joint venture is reflected in other income. CELEBRITY CRUISE LINES INC.

Significant Accounting Policies (cont'd) (b)Interest bearing deposits which are highly liquid investments and have a maturity of three months or less when purchased have been included in cash and cash equivalents. (c)Vessels and equipment as of October 1, 1992 and fixed assets acquired on January 1, 1993 (see Note 1) were recorded at amounts assigned to them by the stockholders (substantially all based on independent appraisal) in connection with the capital contributions. All subsequent additions to vessels and equipment have been recorded at cost. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method based on cost, less estimated salvage value, over the assets estimated useful lives which primarily range for vessels from 20 to 30 years and for equipment from 5 to 10 years. (d)Drydock costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the period to the next drydocking. (e)The countries in which the Company and its subsidiaries are incorporated impose, with regard to shipping companies, taxes based on the tonnage, not the income, of the vessels. Tonnage taxes paid by the companies have been included in operating expenses. The Company and its subsidiaries do not pay United States income taxes under exemptions available pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code. (f)Inventories are recorded at the lower of first-in, first-out cost or market. (g)Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars, which is the functional currency, at year end rates and foreign currency income and expense transactions are translated at the average weekly rate. Gains and losses on foreign currency transactions were not material. (h)Customer cruise deposits, which represent unearned income, are recorded as liabilities when received and are recognized as cruise revenue on a completed voyage basis for cruises with durations of 12 days or less and on a pro-rata basis for cruises in excess of 12 days. (i)Intangibles arose from the valuation (based on independent appraisal) of net assets contributed by Chandris (see Note 1) and are being amortized using the straight-line method over 40 years. 3.

ARTICLE VIII CITIZENSHIP OF STOCKHOLDERS The outstanding shares of the Corporation shall at all times be owned by citizens of the United States to such extent as will, in the judgment of the Board, reasonably assure the preservation of the Corporation's status as a United States citizen within the provisions of Section 2 of the Shipping Act of 1916, as amended, or any successor statute applicable to the business being conducted by the Corporation (the "Citizenship Provisions"). The Board of Directors may restrict any original issuance of shares of the Corporation to citizens of the United States as defined in the Citizenship Provisions ("United States Citizens"), and, in any event, shall from time to time establish, as a condition to the issuance or transfer of shares of the Corporation to non-United States Citizens, the minimum percentage of the total outstanding shares of the Corporation which shall be owned by United States Citizens (the "Minimum U.S. Ownership"), which minimum percentage may, in the discretion of the Board of Directors, exceed the minimum percentage required by law. Nothing herein shall be deemed to preclude ownership by United States Citizens of shares of the Corporation in excess of the Minimum U.S. Ownership. Certificates evidencing shares of stock of the Corporation may be issued in separate series, denominated respectively "Domestic Share Certificates" and "Foreign Share Certificates". Domestic Share Certificates shall be issued in respect of shares owned of record and beneficially by United States Citizens; Foreign Share Certificates shall be issued in respect of shares owned of record or beneficially by non-United States Citizens. Holders of Domestic Shares Certificates and of Foreign Share Certificates shall have in all respects the same corporate status and corporate rights, share for share, except that transfers of Domestic Share Certificates to non-United States Citizens shall be restricted as herein provided. If any shares evidenced by Domestic Share Certificates or by Foreign Share Certificates shall be transferred to United States Citizens, the share certificates issued to the transferee in respect of the shares transferred shall be Domestic Share Certificates. Any purported transfer to non-United States Citizens of shares evidenced by Domestic Share Certificates which, at the time of presentation to the transfer agent of the Corporation, would result in reducing the ownership of shares by United States Citizens below the Minimum U.S. Ownership shall not be recorded on the books of the Corporation and shall be ineffective to transfer the shares or any voting or other rights in respect thereof, and the Corporation may regard the Certificate, whether or not validly issued, as having been invalidly issued. The Board may establish reasonable procedures with respect to the order in which and terms upon which such transfers may be given effect when the transfer to non-United States Citizens of shares evidenced by Domestic Share Certificates will not result in reducing the ownership of shares by United States Citizens below the Minimum U.S. Ownership. In the case of any permitted transfer to non-United States Citizens of shares evidenced by Domestic Shares Certificates, and in the case of any transfer to non-United States Citizens of shares evidenced by Foreign Share Certificates, the share certificates issued to the transferee in respect of the shares transferred shall be Foreign Share Certificates. The Board may establish from time to time reasonable procedures for establishing the citizenship of shareholders of the Corporation and, without limiting the foregoing, may require that in connection with each issue or transfer of shares of the Corporation the purchaser or transferee shall certify his citizenship status and such matters relevant thereto as the Board may require. The Board may also establish from time to time such other reasonable procedures as it may deem desirable for the purposes of implementing the provisions of Article FIFTH of the Certificate of Incorporation and this Article VIII. ARTICLE IX CAPITAL STOCK SECTION 1. FORM AND ISSUANCE. Subject to Article VIII of these By-Laws, certificates of stock shall be issued in such form as may be approved by the Board of Directors and shall be signed by, or in the name of the Corporation by, the President or any of the Vice Presidents, and by the Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer or the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Corporation; provided, however, that if any such certificate is countersigned (1) by a transfer agent other than the Corporation or its employee, or, (2) by a registrar other than the Corporation or its employee, the signatures of the officers of the Corporation and the seal of the Corporation on such Certificate may be facsimiles. In case any officer who has signed or whose facsimile signature has been placed upon a certificate shall have ceased to be such officer before such certificate is issued, it may be issued by the Corporation with the same effect as if he were such officer at the date of issue. The Corporation shall be entitled to treat the holder of record of any shares or shares of stock as the owner in fact thereof and, accordingly, shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such share or shares on the part of any other person, whether or not it has actual or other notice thereof, save as provided by the laws of the State of Delaware. SECTION 2. TRANSFER OF SHARES OF STOCK. Except as otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation or in these By-Laws, shares of stock shall be transferable on the books of the Corporation by the holder thereof or by his attorney thereunto duly authorized upon the surrender and cancellation of certificates for a like number of shares. SECTION 3. OLD CERTIFICATES TO BE CANCELLED; LOST, STOLEN, OR DESTROYED CERTIFICATES. Except in cases of lost, stolen or destroyed certificates, and in that case only after conforming to the requirements hereinafter provided, no new certificates shall be issued until the former certificate for the shares represented thereby shall have been surrendered and cancelled. Any person claiming a certificate of stock to be lost or destroyed shall make such affidavit or affirmation of that fact as the Board of Directors may require and at the option of the Board of Directors shall give the Corporation and/or its transfer agent or agents, registrar or registrars, a bond of indemnity, in the form and with one or more sureties satisfactory to the Board of Directors, whereupon a new certificate may be issued of the same tenor and for the same number of shares as the one alleged to have been lost or destroyed, and, if required by such Board, a final order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction of the right of any such person to receive a new certificate shall be procured. SECTION 4. FIXING OF RECORD DATE. In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, or to express consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, or entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights, or entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the Board of Directors may fix, in advance, a record date, which shall not be more than sixty, nor less than ten days before the date of such meeting, nor more than sixty days prior to any other action. Only such stockholders as shall be stockholders of record on the date so fixed shall be entitled to such notice of, and to vote at, such meeting and any adjournment thereof, or to receive payment of such dividend or other distribution, or to receive such allotment of rights, or to exercise such rights in respect of any such change, conversion or exchange of stock, or to participate in such other action or to give such consent, as the case may be, notwithstanding any transfer of any stock on the books of the Corporation after any such record date fixed as aforesaid. A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the Board of Directors may fix a new record date for the adjourned meeting. SECTION 5. REGULATIONS. The Board of Directors may make such regulations as it may deem expedient concerning the issue, transfer and registration of stock and may from time to time appoint such transfer agents or registrars of shares as it may deem advisable and may define their powers and duties. ARTICLE XI NEGOTIABLE INSTRUMENTS, CONTRACTS, ETC. SECTION 1. SIGNATURES ON CHECKS, ETC. All checks, drafts, bills of exchange, notes or other instruments or orders for the payment of money or evidences of indebtedness shall be signed for or in the name of the Corporation by such officer or officers, person or persons, as the Board of Directors may from time to time designate by resolution, and in the absence of such resolution by the President or any of the Vice Presidents. SECTION 2. EXECUTION OF CONTRACTS. The President or any of the Vice Presidents, and any other officer or officers that the Board of Directors may designate shall have full authority in the name of and on behalf of the Corporation to enter into any contract or execute and deliver any instruments or notes, or other evidences of indebtedness unless such authority shall be limited by the Board of Directors to specific instances. SECTION 3. BANK ACCOUNTS. All funds of the Corporation shall be deposited from time to time to the credit of the Corporation in such banks, trust companies or other depositories as the Board of Directors may select or as may be selected by any officer or officers, agent or agents of the Corporation to whom such power may from time to time be delegated by the Board of Directors.

Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and form one instrument. SECTION 104. ACTS OF HOLDERS; RECORD DATES. Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Indenture to be given, made or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the "Act" of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 601) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company, if made in the manner provided in this Section. The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof. Where such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than his individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of his authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee deems sufficient. The ownership of Securities shall be proved by the Security Register. Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act of the Holder of any Security shall bind every future Holder of the same Security and the Holder of every Security issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee or the Company in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Security. The Company may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities of any series entitled to give, make or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Indenture to be given, made or taken by Holders of Securities of such series, provided that the Company may not set a record date for, and the provisions of this paragraph shall not apply with respect to, the giving or making of any notice, declaration, request or direction referred to in the next paragraph. If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to take the relevant action, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the Company from setting a new record date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person be cancelled and of no effect), and nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on the date such action is taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Company, at its own expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Trustee in writing and to each Holder of Securities of the relevant series in the manner set forth in Section 106. The Trustee may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities of any series entitled to join in the giving or making of (i) any Notice of Default, (ii) any declaration of acceleration referred to in Section 502, (iii) any request to institute proceedings referred to in Section 507(2) or (iv) any direction referred to in Section 512, in each case with respect to Securities of such series. If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to join in such notice, declaration, request or direction, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the Trustee from setting a new record date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person be cancelled and of no effect), and nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of the relevant series on the date such action is taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Trustee, at the Company's expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Company in writing and to each Holder of Securities of the relevant series in the manner set forth in Section 106. With respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section, the party hereto which sets such record dates may designate any day as the "Expiration Date" and from time to time may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or later day; provided that no such change shall be effective unless notice of the proposed new Expiration Date is given to the other party hereto in writing, and to each Holder of Securities of the relevant series in the manner set forth in Section 106, on or prior to the existing Expiration Date. If an Expiration Date is not designated with respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section, the party hereto which set such record date shall be deemed to have initially designated the 180th day after such record date as the Expiration Date with respect thereto, subject to its right to change the Expiration Date as provided in this paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Expiration Date shall be later than the 180th day after the applicable record date. Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled hereunder to take any action hereunder with regard to any particular Security may do so with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of such Security or by one or more duly appointed agents each of which may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any part of such principal amount. SECTION 105. NOTICES, ETC., TO TRUSTEE AND COMPANY. Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Holders or other document provided or permitted by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with, (1) the Trustee by any Holder or by the Company shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, Attention: Corporate Trust Administration, or (2) the Company by the Trustee or by any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to the Company addressed to it to the attention of its Secretary at the address of its principal office specified in the first paragraph of this instrument or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Company. SECTION 106. NOTICE TO HOLDERS; WAIVER. Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at his address as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the latest date (if any), and not earlier than the earliest date (if any), prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders. Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver. In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail, then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder. SECTION 107. CONFLICT WITH TRUST INDENTURE ACT. If any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with a provision of the Trust Indenture Act which is required under such Act to be a part of and govern this Indenture, the latter provision shall control. If any provision of this Indenture modifies or excludes any provision of the Trust Indenture Act which may be so modified or excluded, the latter provision shall be deemed to apply to this Indenture as so modified or to be excluded, as the case may be. SECTION 108. EFFECT OF HEADINGS AND TABLE OF CONTENTS. The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof. SECTION 109. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the Company shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not. SECTION 110. SEPARABILITY CLAUSE.

SECTION 303. EXECUTION, AUTHENTICATION, DELIVERY AND DATING. The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman of the Board, its Vice Chairman of the Board, its President or one of its Vice Presidents, under its corporate seal reproduced thereon attested by its Secretary or one of its Assistant Secretaries. The signature of any of these officers on the Securities may be manual or facsimile. Securities bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Securities or did not hold such offices at the date of such Securities. At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities of any series executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities, and the Trustee in accordance with the Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities. If the form or terms of the Securities of the series have been established by or pursuant to one or more Board Resolutions as permitted by Sections 201 and 301, in authenticating such Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Section 601) shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating, (1) if the form of such Securities has been established by or pursuant to Board Resolution as permitted by Section 201, that such form has been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; (2) if the terms of such Securities have been established by or pursuant to Board Resolution as permitted by Section 301, that such terms have been established in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; and (3) that such Securities, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors' rights and to general equity principles. If such form or terms have been so established, the Trustee shall not be required to authenticate such Securities if the issue of such Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 301 and of the preceding paragraph, if all Securities of a series are not to be originally issued at one time, it shall not be necessary to deliver the Officers' Certificate otherwise required pursuant to Section 301 or the Company Order and Opinion of Counsel otherwise required pursuant to such preceding paragraph at or prior to the authentication of each Security of such series if such documents are delivered at or prior to the authentication upon original issuance of the first Security of such series to be issued. Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Trustee by manual signature, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Company, and the Company shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 309, for all purposes of this Indenture such Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. SECTION 304. TEMPORARY SECURITIES. Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the Company may execute, and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such Securities may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Securities. If temporary Securities of any series are issued, the Company will cause definitive Securities of that series to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Securities of such series, the temporary Securities of such series shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities of such series upon surrender of the temporary Securities of such series at the office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment for that series, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities of any series, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor one or more definitive Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of like tenor and aggregate principal amount. Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities of any series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series and tenor. SECTION 305. REGISTRATION, REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE. The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee a register (the register maintained in such office and in any other office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment being herein sometimes collectively referred to as the "Security Register") in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Securities and of transfers of Securities. The Trustee is hereby appointed "Security Registrar" for the purpose of registering Securities and transfers of Securities as herein provided. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security of a series at the office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment for that series, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of like tenor and aggregate principal amount. At the option of the Holder, Securities of any series may be exchanged for other Securities of the same series, of any authorized denominations and of like tenor and aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Company or the Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed, by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing. No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 304, 906 or 1107 not involving any transfer. If the Securities of any series (or of any series and specified tenor) are to be redeemed in part, the Company shall not be required (A) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Securities of that series (or of that series and specified tenor, as the case may be) during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the mailing of a notice of redemption of any such Securities selected for redemption under Section 1103 and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing, or (B) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part. The provisions of Clauses (1), (2), (3) and (4) below shall apply only to Global Securities: (1) Each Global Security authenticated under this Indenture shall be registered in the name of the Depositary designated for such Global Security or a nominee thereof and delivered to such Depositary or a nominee thereof or custodian therefor, and each such Global Security shall constitute a single Security for all purposes of this Indenture. (2) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, no Global Security may be exchanged in whole or in part for Securities registered, and no transfer of a Global Security in whole or in part may be registered, in the name of any Person other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof unless (A) such Depositary (i) has notified the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Security or (ii) has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, (B) there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default with respect to such Global Security or (C) there shall exist such circumstances, if any, in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as have been specified for this purpose as contemplated by Section 301. (3) Subject to Clause (2) above, any exchange of a Global Security for other Securities may be made in whole or in part, and all Securities issued in exchange for a Global Security or any portion thereof shall be registered in such names as the Depositary for such Global Security shall direct. (4) Every Security authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, a Global Security or any portion thereof, whether pursuant to this Section, Section 304, 306, 906 or 1107 or otherwise, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Security, unless such Security is registered in the name of a Person other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof. SECTION 306. MUTILATED, DESTROYED, LOST AND STOLEN SECURITIES. If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. If there shall be delivered to the Company and the Trustee (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of the same series and of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security. Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith. Every new Security of any series issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities of that series duly issued hereunder. The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities. SECTION 307. PAYMENT OF INTEREST; INTEREST RIGHTS PRESERVED. Except as otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 301 with respect to any series of Securities, interest on any Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest. Any interest on any Security of any series which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date (herein called "Defaulted Interest") shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in Clause (1) or (2) below: (1) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security of such series and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this Clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be given to each Holder of Securities of such series in the manner set forth in Section 106, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been so mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following Clause (2). (2) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on the Securities of any series in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this Clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee. Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section, each Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security. SECTION 308. PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS. Prior to due presentment of a Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and any premium and (subject to Section 307) any interest on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary. SECTION 309. CANCELLATION. All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange or for credit against any sinking fund payment shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and shall be promptly cancelled by it. The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to the Trustee (or to any other Person for delivery to the Trustee) for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated hereunder which the Company has not issued and sold, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Securities held by the Trustee shall be disposed of as directed by a Company Order. SECTION 310. COMPUTATION OF INTEREST. Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for Securities of any series, interest on the Securities of each series shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. ARTICLE FOUR SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE SECTION 401. SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE. This Indenture shall upon Company Request cease to be of further effect (except as to any surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of Securities herein expressly provided for), and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, when (1) either (A) all Securities theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (i) Securities which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 306 and (ii) Securities for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust, as provided in Section 1003) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or (B) all such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation (i) have become due and payable, or (ii) will become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within one year, or (iii) are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company, and the Company, in the case of (i), (ii) or (iii) above, has deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for the purpose money in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal and any premium and interest to the date of such deposit (in the case of Securities which have become due and payable) or to the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be; (2) the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Company; and (3) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with. Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the obligations of the Company to the Trustee under Section 607, the obligations of the Trustee to any Authenticating Agent under Section 614 and, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (B) of Clause (1) of this Section, the obligations of the Trustee under Section 402 and the last paragraph of Section 1003 shall survive. SECTION 402. APPLICATION OF TRUST MONEY. Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 401 shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal and any premium and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee. ARTICLE FIVE REMEDIES SECTION 501. EVENTS OF DEFAULT. "Event of Default", wherever used herein with respect to Securities of any series, means any one of the following events (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body): (1) default in the payment of any interest upon any Security of that series when it becomes due and payable, and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days; or (2) default in the payment of the principal of or any premium on any Security of that series at its Maturity; or (3) default in the deposit of any sinking fund payment, when and as due by the terms of a Security of that series; or (4) default in the performance, or breach, of any covenant or warranty of the Company in this Indenture (other than a covenant or warranty a default in whose performance or whose breach is elsewhere in this Section specifically dealt with or which has expressly been included in this Indenture solely for the benefit of series of Securities other than that series), and continuance of such default or breach for a period of 30 days after there has been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series a written notice specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a "Notice of Default" hereunder; or (5) a default under any bond, debenture, note or other evidence of indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (including a default with respect to Securities of any series other than that series) having an aggregate principal amount outstanding of at least $10,000,000, or under any Mortgage, indenture or instrument (including this Indenture) under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary having an aggregate principal amount outstanding of at least $10,000,000, whether such indebtedness now exists or shall hereafter be created, which default shall have resulted in such indebtedness becoming or being declared due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise have become due and payable, without such indebtedness having been discharged, or such acceleration having been rescinded or annulled, within a period of 10 days after there shall have been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series a written notice specifying such default and requiring the Company to cause such indebtedness to be discharged or cause such acceleration to be rescinded or annulled, as the case may be, and stating that such notice is a "Notice of Default" hereunder; provided, however, that, subject to the provisions of Sections 601 and 602, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of such default unless either (A) a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have actual knowledge of such default or (B) the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof from the Company, from any Holder, from the holder of any such indebtedness or from the trustee under any such mortgage, indenture or other instrument; or (6) the entry by a court having jurisdiction in the premises of (A) a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company in an involuntary case or proceeding under any applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or (B) a decree or order adjudging the Company a bankrupt or insolvent, or approving as properly filed a petition seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of or in respect of the Company under any applicable Federal or State law, or appointing a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or other similar official of the Company or of any substantial part of its property, or ordering the winding up or liquidation of its affairs, and the continuance of any such decree or order for relief or any such other decree or order unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 consecutive days; or (7) the commencement by the Company of a voluntary case or proceeding under any applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or of any other case or proceeding to be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or the consent by it to the entry of a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company in an involuntary case or proceeding under any applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or to the commencement of any bankruptcy or insolvency case or proceeding against it, or the filing by it of a petition or answer or consent seeking reorganization or relief under any applicable Federal or State law, or the consent by it to the filing of such petition or to the appointment of or taking possession by a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or other similar official of the Company or of any substantial part of its property, or the making by it of an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the admission by it in writing of its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, or the taking of corporate action by the Company in furtherance of any such action; or (8) any other Event of Default provided with respect to Securities of that series. SECTION 502. ACCELERATION OF MATURITY; RESCISSION AND ANNULMENT. If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 501(6) or 501(7)) with respect to Securities of any series at the time Outstanding occurs and is continuing, then in every such case the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series may declare the principal amount of all the Securities of that series (or, if any Securities of that series are Original Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount of such Securities as may be specified by the terms thereof) to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), and upon any such declaration such principal amount (or specified amount) shall become immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in Section 501(6) or 501(7) with respect to Securities of any series at the time Outstanding occurs, the principal amount of all the Securities of that series (or, if any Securities of that series are Original Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount of such Securities as may be specified by the terms thereof) shall automatically, and without any declaration or other action on the part of the Trustee or any Holder, become immediately due and payable. At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to Securities of any series has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article provided, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series, by written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if (1) the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay (A) all overdue interest on all Securities of that series, (B) the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Securities of that series which have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and any interest thereon at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities, (C) to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue interest at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities, and (D) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel; and (2) all Events of Default with respect to Securities of that series, other than the non-payment of the principal of Securities of that series which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 513. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon. SECTION 503. COLLECTION OF INDEBTEDNESS AND SUITS FOR ENFORCEMENT BY TRUSTEE. The Company covenants that if (1) default is made in the payment of any interest on any Security when such interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days, or (2) default is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any Security at the Maturity thereof, the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities, the whole amount then due and payable on such Securities for principal and any premium and interest and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, interest on any overdue principal and premium and on any overdue interest, at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Securities, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel. If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy. SECTION 504. TRUSTEE MAY FILE PROOFS OF CLAIM. In case of any judicial proceeding relative to the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities), its property or its creditors, the Trustee shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, to take any and all actions authorized under the Trust Indenture Act in order to have claims of the Holders and the Trustee allowed in any such proceeding. In particular, the Trustee shall be authorized to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 607. No provision of this Indenture shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding; provided, however, that the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders, vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar official and be a member of a creditors' or other similar committee. SECTION 505. TRUSTEE MAY ENFORCE CLAIMS WITHOUT POSSESSION OF SECURITIES. All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Securities may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such judgment has been recovered. SECTION 506. APPLICATION OF MONEY COLLECTED. Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal or any premium or interest, upon presentation of the Securities and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid: First: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under Section 607; and Second: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of and any premium and interest on the Securities in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such Securities for principal and any premium and interest, respectively. SECTION 507. LIMITATION ON SUITS. No Holder of any Security of any series shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless (1) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of that series; (2) the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder; (3) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; (4) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding; and (5) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series; it being understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of such Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other of such Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all of such Holders. SECTION 508. UNCONDITIONAL RIGHT OF HOLDERS TO RECEIVE PRINCIPAL, PREMIUM AND INTEREST. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Security shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and any premium and (subject to Section 307) interest on such Security on the respective Stated Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on the Redemption Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder. SECTION 509. RESTORATION OF RIGHTS AND REMEDIES. If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted. SECTION 510. RIGHTS AND REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in the last paragraph of Section 306, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. SECTION 511. DELAY OR OMISSION NOT WAIVER. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Securities to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be. SECTION 512. CONTROL BY HOLDERS. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, with respect to the Securities of such series, provided that (1) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture, and (2) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction. SECTION 513. WAIVER OF PAST DEFAULTS. The Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of such series waive any past default hereunder with respect to such series and its consequences, except a default (1) in the payment of the principal of or any premium or interest on any Security of such series, or (2) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article Nine cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security of such series affected. Upon any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon. SECTION 514. UNDERTAKING FOR COSTS. In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, a court may require any party litigant in such suit to file an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and may assess costs against any such party litigant, in the manner and to the extent provided in the Trust Indenture Act; provided that neither this Section nor the Trust Indenture Act shall be deemed to authorize any court to require such an undertaking or to make such an assessment in any suit instituted by the Company. SECTION 515. WAIVER OF USURY, STAY OR EXTENSION LAWS. The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any usury, stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted. ARTICLE SIX THE TRUSTEE SECTION 601. CERTAIN DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES. The duties and responsibilities of the Trustee shall be as provided by the Trust Indenture Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section. SECTION 602. NOTICE OF DEFAULTS. If a default occurs hereunder with respect to Securities of any series, the Trustee shall give the Holders of Securities of such series notice of such default as and to the extent provided by the Trust Indenture Act; provided, however, that in the case of any default of the character specified in Section 501(4) with respect to Securities of such series, no such notice to Holders shall be given until at least 30 days after the occurrence thereof. For the purpose of this Section, the term "default" means any event which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default with respect to Securities of such series. SECTION 603. CERTAIN RIGHTS OF TRUSTEE. Subject to the provisions of Section 601: (1) the Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties; (2) any request or direction of the Company mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Company Request or Company Order, and any resolution of the Board of Directors shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Board Resolution; (3) whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, rely upon an Officers' Certificate; (4) the Trustee may consult with counsel and the written advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon; (5) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction; (6) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney; and (7) the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed with due care by it hereunder. SECTION 604. NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR RECITALS OR ISSUANCE OF SECURITIES. The recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except the Trustee's certificates of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and neither the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent assumes any responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities. Neither the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent shall be accountable for the use or application by the Company of Securities or the proceeds thereof. SECTION 605. MAY HOLD SECURITIES. The Trustee, any Authenticating Agent, any Paying Agent, any Security Registrar or any other agent of the Company, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and, subject to Sections 608 and 613, may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent, Security Registrar or such other agent. SECTION 606. MONEY HELD IN TRUST. Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed with the Company. SECTION 607. COMPENSATION AND REIMBURSEMENT. The Company agrees (1) to pay to the Trustee from time to time such reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder as shall be agreed upon in writing (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust); (2) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its negligence or bad faith; and (3) to indemnify the Trustee for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred without negligence or bad faith on its part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the trust or trusts hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder. When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection with an Event of Default specified in Section 501(6) or 501(7), such expenses (including the reasonable charges and expenses of its counsel) and the compensation for such services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any bankruptcy law. SECTION 608. CONFLICTING INTERESTS. If the Trustee has or shall acquire a conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee shall either eliminate such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to the provisions of, the Trust Indenture Act and this Indenture. To the extent permitted by such Act, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have a conflicting interest by virtue of being a trustee under this Indenture with respect to Securities of more than one series. SECTION 609. CORPORATE TRUSTEE REQUIRED; ELIGIBILITY. There shall at all times be one (and only one) Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of each series, which may be Trustee hereunder for Securities of one or more other series. Each Trustee shall be a Person that is eligible pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act to act as such, has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. If any such Person publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of its supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section and to the extent permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, the combined capital and surplus of such Person shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article. SECTION 610. RESIGNATION AND REMOVAL; APPOINTMENT OF SUCCESSOR. No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 611. The Trustee may resign at any time with respect to the Securities of one or more series by giving written notice thereof to the Company. If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 611 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series. The Trustee may be removed at any time with respect to the Securities of any series by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series, delivered to the Trustee and to the Company. If at any time: (1) the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 608 after written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months, or (2) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 609 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any such Holder, or (3) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then, in any such case, (A) the Company by a Board Resolution may remove the Trustee with respect to all Securities, or (B) subject to Section 514, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee with respect to all Securities and the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees. If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, with respect to the Securities of one or more series, the Company, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees with respect to the Securities of that or those series (it being understood that any such successor Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more or all of such series and that at any time there shall be only one Trustee with respect to the Securities of any particular series) and shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 611. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 611, become the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. If no successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall have been so appointed by the Company or the Holders and accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 611, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of such series for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series. The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series and each appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series to all Holders of Securities of such series in the manner provided in Section 106. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series and the address of its Corporate Trust Office. SECTION 611. ACCEPTANCE OF APPOINTMENT BY SUCCESSOR. In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to all Securities, every such successor Trustee so appointed shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on the request of the Company or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder. In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more (but not all) series, the Company, the retiring Trustee and each successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more series shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein each successor Trustee shall accept such appointment and which (1) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates, (2) if the retiring Trustee is not retiring with respect to all Securities, shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series as to which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the retiring Trustee, and (3) shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustees co- trustees of the same trust and that each such Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such Trustee; and upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein and each such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates; but, on request of the Company or any successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates. Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in the first or second preceding paragraph, as the case may be. No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified and eligible under this Article. SECTION 612. MERGER, CONVERSION, CONSOLIDATION OR SUCCESSION TO BUSINESS. Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Securities shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities. SECTION 613. PREFERENTIAL COLLECTION OF CLAIMS AGAINST COMPANY. If and when the Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the Company (or any other obligor upon the Securities), the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act regarding the collection of claims against the Company (or any such other obligor). SECTION 614. APPOINTMENT OF AUTHENTICATING AGENT. The Company may appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents with respect to one or more series of Securities which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of such series issued upon original issue and upon exchange, registration of transfer or partial redemption thereof or pursuant to Section 306, and Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee's certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Trustee and shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State authority. If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section. Any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be an Authenticating Agent, provided such corporation shall be otherwise eligible under this Section, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent. An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and to the Company. The Company may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and to the Trustee. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Company may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Trustee and shall give notice of such appointment in the manner provided in Section 106 to all Holders of Securities of the series with respect to which such Authenticating Agent will serve. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section. The Company agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services under this Section. If an appointment with respect to one or more series is made pursuant to this Section, the Securities of such series may have endorsed thereon, in addition to the Trustee's certificate of authentication, an alternative certificate of authentication in the following form: This is one of the Securities of the series designated therein referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture.

provided, however, that such successor Person will not be required to agree to indemnify, pursuant to this clause (A), against any tax, assessment or governmental charge of the type described in clause (a) or (d) below that is imposed by the jurisdiction of organization of such Person or any of its territories or political subdivisions, and (ii) any costs or expenses of the act of such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer or lease, and (B) that all payments pursuant to the Securities in respect of the principal of and any premium and interest on the Securities shall be made without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature imposed or levied by or on behalf of the jurisdiction of organization of such Person or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein, unless such taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges are required by such jurisdiction or any such subdivision or authority to be withheld or deducted, in which case such Person will pay such additional amounts of, or in respect of, principal and any premium and interest ("Successor Additional Amounts") as will result (after deduction of such taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges and any additional taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges payable in respect of such) in the payment to each Holder of a Security of the amounts which would have been payable pursuant to the Securities had no such withholding or deduction been required, except that no Successor Additional Amounts shall be so payable for or on account of: (a) any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge which would not have been imposed but for the fact that such Holder: (i) was a resident, domiciliary or national of, or engaged in business or maintained a permanent establishment or was physically present in, the jurisdiction of organization of such Person or any of its territories or any political subdivision thereof or otherwise had some connection with such jurisdiction other than the mere ownership of, or receipt of payment under, such Security;

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of or any premium or interest on any Security of any series and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on Company Request, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in a newspaper published in the English language, customarily published on each Business Day and of general circulation in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company.

SECTION 1006. MAINTENANCE OF PROPERTIES. The Company will cause all properties used or useful in the conduct of its business or the business of any Subsidiary to be maintained and kept in good condition, repair and working order, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and supplied with all necessary equipment and will cause to be made all necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and improvements thereof, all as in the judgment of the Company may be necessary so that the business carried on in connection therewith may be properly and advantageously conducted at all times; provided, however, that nothing in this Section shall prevent the Company from discontinuing the operation or maintenance of any of such properties if such discontinuance is, in the judgment of the Company, desirable in the conduct of its business or the business of any Subsidiary and not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders. SECTION 1007. INSURANCE. The Company will maintain, and cause its Subsidiaries to maintain, insurance coverage by financially sound and reputable insurers in such forms and amounts and against such risks as are at that time customary for corporations of established reputation engaged in the same or a similar business and owning and operating similar properties including general liability insurance and (but without duplication) protection and indemnity insurance, hull and machinery insurance, oil pollution insurance and, if available at commercially reasonable rates, loss of hire insurance.

SECTION 1009. LIMITATION ON LIENS. The Company will not itself, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, Incur any Debt secured by a Mortgage on any property or assets owned or leased by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, or any shares of stock or Debt of any Subsidiary, without effectively providing that the Securities (together with, if the Company shall so determine, any other Debt of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary then existing or thereafter created which is not subordinate to the Securities) shall be secured equally and ratably with (or prior to) such secured Debt, so long as such secured Debt shall be so secured, unless, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate amount of all such secured Debt Incurred after the date hereof and then outstanding plus all Attributable Debt Incurred after the date hereof and then outstanding of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in respect to sale and leaseback transactions (as defined in Section 1010) would not exceed 15% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, however, that this Section shall not apply to, and there shall be excluded from secured Debt in any computation under this Section, Debt secured by: (1) Mortgages on property of, or on any shares of stock or Debt of, any corporation existing at the time such corporation becomes a Subsidiary; (2) Mortgages in favor of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary; (3) Mortgages in favor of the United States of America, or any agency, department or other instrumentality thereof, to secure progress, advance or other payments pursuant to any contract or provision of any statute; (4) Mortgages on property, shares of stock or Debt existing at the time of acquisition thereof (including acquisition through merger or consolidation) or to secure the payment of all or any part of the purchase price or construction cost thereof or to secure any Debt Incurred or committed to under a binding agreement prior to, at the time of, or within 120 days after, the acquisition of such property or shares or Debt or the completion of any such construction for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price or construction cost thereof; and (5) any extension, renewal or replacement (or successive extensions, renewals or replacements), as a whole or in part, of any Mortgage referred to in the foregoing clauses (1) to (4), inclusive whether existing now or hereafter or of any Mortgage existing on the date hereof; provided, that (i) such extension, renewal or replacement Mortgage shall be limited to all or a part of the same property, shares of stock or Debt that secured the Mortgage extended, renewed or replaced (plus improvements on such property) and (ii) the Debt secured by such Mortgage at such time is not increased. SECTION 1010. LIMITATION ON SALES AND LEASEBACKS. The Company will not itself, and it will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, enter into any arrangement with any bank, insurance company or other lender or investor (not including the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary) or to which any such lender or investor is a party, providing for the leasing by the Company or any such Restricted Subsidiary for a period, including renewals, in excess of three years of any property or assets owned or leased by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary which has been or is to be sold or transferred, more than 120 days after the acquisition thereof or after the completion of construction and commencement of full operation thereof, by the Company or any such Restricted Subsidiary to such lender or investor or to any person to whom funds have been or are to be advanced by such lender or investor on the security of such property or assets (herein referred to as a "sale and leaseback transaction") unless either: (1) the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary could create Debt secured by a Mortgage pursuant to Section 1009 on the property or assets to be leased back in an amount equal to the Attributable Debt with respect to such sale and leaseback transaction without equally and ratably securing the Securities, or (2) the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary within 120 days after the sale or transfer shall have been made by the Company or by any such Restricted Subsidiary, applies an amount not less than the greater of (i) the net proceeds of the sale of the property or assets sold and leased back pursuant to such arrangement or (ii) the fair market value of the property or assets so sold and leased back at the time of entering into such arrangement (as determined by any two of the following: the Chairman of the Board of the Company, its President, any Executive or Senior Vice President of the Company, its Chief Financial Officer, its Treasurer and its Controller) to (a) the purchase, acquisition or construction of property or assets to be used in the business of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries (which shall include the entering into, within such 120 day period, of an agreement for such purchase, acquisition or construction of property or assets) or (b) to the retirement of Funded Debt of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary; provided, that (x) the amount to be applied to the retirement of Funded Debt of the Company shall be reduced by the principal amount of any Securities delivered within 120 days after such sale to the Trustee for retirement and cancellation and (y) the amount to be applied to the retirement of Funded Debt of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary shall be reduced by the principal amount of Funded Debt of the Company, other than Securities, or the principal amount of Funded Debt of any Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, voluntarily retired by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary within 120 days after such sale. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no retirement referred to in this clause (2) may be effected by payment at maturity or pursuant to any mandatory prepayment provision. SECTION 1011. LIMITATION ON INCURRENCE OF INDEBTEDNESS BY RESTRICTED SUBSIDIARIES. The Company will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to Incur any Funded Debt unless after giving effect to the Incurrence of such Funded Debt by such Restricted Subsidiary and the receipt and application of the proceeds thereof, the aggregate outstanding amount of Funded Debt of all Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company shall not exceed 10% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, however, that this sentence shall not apply to, and there shall be excluded from Funded Debt at the time of any computation under this sentence, (a) any Funded Debt owed to the Company or to any other Restricted Subsidiary, (b) any Funded Debt of a Restricted Subsidiary outstanding on the date hereof, (c) any Funded Debt that (i) is supported in full by a direct-pay or standby letter of credit or letter of guarantee on which the Company (but not any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) is the account party and as to which the terms of the related reimbursement agreement shall not permit the issuing bank any recourse against any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company and (ii) is not supported by any other letter of credit, letter of guarantee or similar instrument in respect of which any Restricted Subsidiary of the Company has any obligation and (d) any Funded Debt of a Restricted Subsidiary Incurred pursuant to a United States Government sponsored vessel financing program, including Title XI or a successor or similar program. SECTION 1012. RESTRICTED SUBSIDIARIES. Each Subsidiary of the Company shall be a Restricted Subsidiary unless such Subsidiary has been designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the provisions set forth herein. The Board of Directors may designate any Person as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if and only if (A) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officer's Certificate within 60 days after such Person became a Subsidiary (the "Notice Period") designating such Person as an Unrestricted Subsidiary and (B) (i) such Person is not a Subsidiary on the date hereof, (ii) such Person was not a Restricted Subsidiary prior to the commencement of the Notice Period, (iii) an Officers' Certificate is delivered to the Trustee stating that the Board of Directors has determined that at the time of such Person's acquisition or formation it was not contemplated that such Person would own, acquire or lease under a lease which would be considered a Capitalized Lease any ocean going vessel designed to carry cargo in bulk which vessel was originally contracted for by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, (iv) neither the Company nor any Restricted Subsidiary has guaranteed or in any other manner become liable for or otherwise created a Mortgage on its property as security for any Funded Debt of such Person, and (v) such Person does not own or hold, directly or indirectly, any Funded Debt or equity securities of any Restricted Subsidiary or own, lease or operate any assets or properties (other than cash, cash equivalents or marketable securities) transferred to it by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary. The Company may change the designation of any Subsidiary from Unrestricted Subsidiary to Restricted Subsidiary by giving written notice to the Trustee that the Board of Directors has made such change, provided that no such change shall be effective if after giving effect to such change the aggregate amount of Funded Debt of all Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company then outstanding (after giving effect to the exclusions provided for in Section 1011 hereof) would exceed 10% of the Consolidated Net Tangible Assets of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries. If at any time (i) the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary guarantees or in any other manner becomes liable for or otherwise creates a Mortgage on its property as security for any Funded Debt of an Unrestricted Subsidiary, (ii) an Unrestricted Subsidiary owns or holds, directly or indirectly, any Funded Debt or equity securities of any Restricted Subsidiary or (iii) an Unrestricted Subsidiary owns, leases or operates any assets or properties (other than cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities) transferred to it by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary, the designation of such Unrestricted Subsidiary shall thereupon, without further action, but subject to the condition set forth in the proviso to the first sentence of this paragraph, be deemed to have been changed to a Restricted Subsidiary. The Company will not itself, and it will not permit any Subsidiary to, take any of the actions referred to in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) of the preceding sentence unless the Unrestricted Subsidiary referred to in such sentence can be designated a Restricted Subsidiary in conformity with the provisions of this Section. The acquisition of a Restricted Subsidiary or the change of designation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary to a Restricted Subsidiary shall, as of the date of such acquisition or change, constitute an Incurrence by Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company of Funded Debt in the amount of the Funded Debt of such Restricted Subsidiary as of such date, and, for purposes of determining Consolidated Net Tangible Assets of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries as of such date, pro forma effect shall be given to such acquisition or change. SECTION 1013. WAIVER OF CERTAIN COVENANTS. Except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for Securities of such series, the Company may, with respect to the Securities of any series, omit in any particular instance to comply with any term, provision or condition set forth in any covenant provided pursuant to Section 301(18), 901(2) or 901(7) for the benefit of the Holders of such series or in any of Sections 1006 to 1012, inclusive, if before the time for such compliance the Holders of at least 66_% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series shall, by Act of such Holders, either waive such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such term, provision or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such term, provision or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such term, provision or condition shall remain in full force and effect. ARTICLE ELEVEN REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES SECTION 1101. APPLICABILITY OF ARTICLE. Securities of any series which are redeemable before their Stated Maturity shall be redeemable in accordance with their terms and (except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for such Securities) in accordance with this Article. SECTION 1102. ELECTION TO REDEEM; NOTICE TO TRUSTEE. The election of the Company to redeem any Securities shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution or in another manner specified as contemplated by Section 301 for such Securities. In case of any redemption at the election of the Company of less than all the Securities of any series (including any such redemption affecting only a single Security), the Company shall, at least 60 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Company (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date, of the principal amount of Securities of such series to be redeemed and, if applicable, of the tenor of the Securities to be redeemed. In the case of any redemption of Securities prior to the expiration of any restriction on such redemption provided in the terms of such Securities or elsewhere in this Indenture, the Company shall furnish the Trustee with an Officers' Certificate evidencing compliance with such restriction. SECTION 1103. SELECTION BY TRUSTEE OF SECURITIES TO BE REDEEMED. If less than all the Securities of any series are to be redeemed (unless all the Securities of such series and of a specified tenor are to be redeemed or unless such redemption affects only a single Security), the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the Outstanding Securities of such series not previously called for redemption, by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption of a portion of the principal amount of any Security of such series, provided that the unredeemed portion of the principal amount of any Security shall be in an authorized denomination (which shall not be less than the minimum authorized denomination) for such Security. If less than all the Securities of such series and of a specified tenor are to be redeemed (unless such redemption affects only a single Security), the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the Outstanding Securities of such series and specified tenor not previously called for redemption in accordance with the preceding sentence. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Securities selected for redemption as aforesaid and, in case of any Securities selected for partial redemption as aforesaid, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. The provisions of the two preceding paragraphs shall not apply with respect to any redemption affecting only a single Security, whether such Security is to be redeemed in whole or in part. In the case of any such redemption in part, the unredeemed portion of the principal amount of the Security shall be in an authorized denomination (which shall not be less than the minimum authorized denomination) for such Security. For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities shall relate, in the case of any Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Securities which has been or is to be redeemed. SECTION 1104. NOTICE OF REDEMPTION. Notice of redemption shall be given by first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed, at his address appearing in the Security Register. All notices of redemption shall state: (1) the Redemption Date, (2) the Redemption Price, (3) if less than all the Outstanding Securities of any series consisting of more than a single Security are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption of any such Securities, the principal amounts) of the particular Securities to be redeemed and, if less than all the Outstanding Securities of any series consisting of a single Security are to be redeemed, the principal amount of the particular Security to be redeemed, (4) that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each such Security to be redeemed and, if applicable, that interest thereon will cease to accrue on and after said date, (5) the place or places where each such Security is to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price, and (6) that the redemption is for a sinking fund, if such is the case. Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed at the election of the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Company's request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company and shall be irrevocable. SECTION 1105. DEPOSIT OF REDEMPTION PRICE. Prior to any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 1003) an amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued interest on, all the Securities which are to be redeemed on that date. SECTION 1106. SECURITIES PAYABLE ON REDEMPTION DATE. Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) such Securities shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Security shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that, unless otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301, instalments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date will be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 307. If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal and any premium shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed therefor in the Security. SECTION 1107. SECURITIES REDEEMED IN PART. Any Security which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at a Place of Payment therefor (with, if the Company or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing), and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security without service charge, a new Security or Securities of the same series and of like tenor, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered. ARTICLE TWELVE SINKING FUNDS SECTION 1201. APPLICABILITY OF ARTICLE. The provisions of this Article shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of Securities of any series except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for such Securities. The minimum amount of any sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of any Securities is herein referred to as a "mandatory sinking fund payment", and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided for by the terms of such Securities is herein referred to as an "optional sinking fund payment". If provided for by the terms of any Securities, the cash amount of any sinking fund payment may be subject to reduction as provided in Section 1202. Each sinking fund payment shall be applied to the redemption of Securities as provided for by the terms of such Securities. SECTION 1202. SATISFACTION OF SINKING FUND PAYMENTS WITH SECURITIES. The Company (1) may deliver Outstanding Securities of a series (other than any previously called for redemption) and (2) may apply as a credit Securities of a series which have been redeemed either at the election of the Company pursuant to the terms of such Securities or through the application of permitted optional sinking fund payments pursuant to the terms of such Securities, in each case in satisfaction of all or any part of any sinking fund payment with respect to any Securities of such series required to be made pursuant to the terms of such Securities as and to the extent provided for by the terms of such Securities; provided that the Securities to be so credited have not been previously so credited. The Securities to be so credited shall be received and credited for such purpose by the Trustee at the Redemption Price, as specified in the Securities so to be redeemed, for redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly. SECTION 1203. REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES FOR SINKING FUND. Not less than 45 days prior to each sinking fund payment date for any Securities, the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate specifying the amount of the next ensuing sinking fund payment for such Securities pursuant to the terms of such Securities, the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by payment of cash and the portion thereof, if any, which is to be satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities pursuant to Section 1202 and will also deliver to the Trustee any Securities to be so delivered. Not less than 30 days prior to each such sinking fund payment date, the Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking fund payment date in the manner specified in Section 1103 and cause notice of the redemption thereof to be given in the name of and at the expense of the Company in the manner provided in Section 1104. Such notice having been duly given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the manner stated in Sections 1106 and 1107. ARTICLE THIRTEEN DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE SECTION 1301. COMPANY'S OPTION TO EFFECT DEFEASANCE OR COVENANT DEFEASANCE. The Company may elect, at its option at any time, to have Section 1302 or Section 1303 applied to any Securities or any series of Securities, as the case may be, designated pursuant to Section 301 as being defeasible pursuant to such Section 1302 or 1303, in accordance with any applicable requirements provided pursuant to Section 301 and upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article. Any such election shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution or in another manner specified as contemplated by Section 301 for such Securities. SECTION 1302. DEFEASANCE AND DISCHARGE. Upon the Company's exercise of its option (if any) to have this Section applied to any Securities or any series of Securities, as the case may be, the Company shall be deemed to have been discharged from its obligations with respect to such Securities as provided in this Section on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 1304 are satisfied (hereinafter called "Defeasance"). For this purpose, such Defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by such Securities and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such Securities and this Indenture insofar as such Securities are concerned (and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), subject to the following which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (1) the rights of Holders of such Securities to receive, solely from the trust fund described in Section 1304 and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of and any premium and interest on such Securities when payments are due, (2) the Company's obligations with respect to such Securities under Sections 304, 305, 306, 1002 and 1003, (3) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and (4) this Article. Subject to compliance with this Article, the Company may exercise its option (if any) to have this Section applied to any Securities notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option (if any) to have Section 1303 applied to such Securities. SECTION 1303. COVENANT DEFEASANCE. Upon the Company's exercise of its option (if any) to have this Section applied to any Securities or any series of Securities, as the case may be, (1) the Company shall be released from its obligations under Section 801(3), Sections 1006 through 1012, inclusive, and any covenants provided pursuant to Section 301(18), 901(2) or 901(7) for the benefit of the Holders of such Securities and (2) the occurrence of any event specified in Sections 501(4) (with respect to any of Section 801(3), Sections 1006 through 1012, inclusive, and any such covenants provided pursuant to Section 301(18), 901(2) or 901(7)), 501(5) and 501(8) shall be deemed not to be or result in an Event of Default in each case with respect to such Securities as provided in this Section on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 1304 are satisfied (hereinafter called "Covenant Defeasance"). For this purpose, such Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to such Securities, the Company may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such specified Section (to the extent so specified in the case of Section 501(4)), whether directly or indirectly by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such Section or by reason of any reference in any such Section to any other provision herein or in any other document, but the remainder of this Indenture and such Securities shall be unaffected thereby. SECTION 1304. CONDITIONS TO DEFEASANCE OR COVENANT DEFEASANCE. The following shall be the conditions to the application of Section 1302 or Section 1303 to any Securities or any series of Securities, as the case may be: (1) The Company shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee (or another trustee which satisfies the requirements contemplated by Section 609 and agrees to comply with the provisions of this Article applicable to it) as trust funds in trust for the purpose of making the following payments, specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated solely to, the benefits of the Holders of such Securities, (A) money in an amount, or (B) U.S. Government Obligations which through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide, not later than one day before the due date of any payment, money in an amount, or (C) a combination thereof, in each case sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by the Trustee (or any such other qualifying trustee) to pay and discharge, the principal of and any premium and interest on such Securities on the respective Stated Maturities, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and such Securities. As used herein, "U.S. Government Obligation" means (x) any security which is (i) a direct obligation of the United States of America for the payment of which the full faith and credit of the United States of America is pledged or (ii) an obligation of a Person controlled or supervised by and acting as an agency or instrumentality of the United States of America the payment of which is unconditionally guaranteed as a full faith and credit obligation by the United States of America, which, in either case (i) or (ii), is not callable or redeemable at the option of the issuer thereof, and (y) any depositary receipt issued by a bank (as defined in Section 3(a)(2) of the Securities Act) as custodian with respect to any U.S. Government Obligation which is specified in Clause (x) above and held by such bank for the account of the holder of such depositary receipt, or with respect to any specific payment of principal of or interest on any U.S. Government Obligation which is so specified and held, provided that (except as required by law) such custodian is not authorized to make any deduction from the amount payable to the holder of such depositary receipt from any amount received by the custodian in respect of the U.S. Government Obligation or the specific payment of principal or interest evidenced by such depositary receipt. (2) In the event of an election to have Section 1302 apply to any Securities or any series of Securities, as the case may be, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that (A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (B) since the date of this instrument, there has been a change in the applicable Federal income tax law, in either case (A) or (B) to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm that, the Holders of such Securities will not recognize gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit, Defeasance and discharge to be effected with respect to such Securities and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit, Defeasance and discharge were not to occur. (3) In the event of an election to have Section 1303 apply to any Securities or any series of Securities, as the case may be, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Holders of such Securities will not recognize gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit and Covenant Defeasance to be effected with respect to such Securities and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit and Covenant Defeasance were not to occur. (4) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer's Certificate to the effect that neither such Securities nor any other Securities of the same series, if then listed on any securities exchange, will be delisted as a result of such deposit. (5) No event which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default with respect to such Securities or any other Securities shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such deposit or, with regard to any such event specified in Sections 501(6) and (7), at any time on or prior to the 90th day after the date of such deposit (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until after such 90th day). (6) Such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not cause the Trustee to have a conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act (assuming all Securities are in default within the meaning of such Act). (7) Such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound. (8) Such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in the trust arising from such deposit constituting an investment company within the meaning of the Investment Company Act unless such trust shall be registered under such Act or exempt from registration thereunder. (9) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer's Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent with respect to such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance have been complied with. SECTION 1305. DEPOSITED MONEY AND U.S. GOVERNMENT OBLIGATIONS TO BE HELD IN TRUST; MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS. Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003, all money and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee or other qualifying trustee (solely for purposes of this Section and Section 1306, the Trustee and any such other trustee are referred to collectively as the "Trustee") pursuant to Section 1304 in respect of any Securities shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any such Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Securities, of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal and any premium and interest, but money so held in trust need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 1304 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of Outstanding Securities. Anything in this Article to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon Company Request any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 1304 with respect to any Securities which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect the Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, with respect to such Securities.

The aggregate principal amount of each of the Notes and the Debentures which may be authenticated and delivered under the Indenture is limited in each case to $100,000,000 (subject to the exceptions set forth in Section 301(2) of the Indenture). 3. The principal of the Notes shall be payable on December 1, 2003, and the principal of the Debentures shall be payable on December 1, 2013, in each case in immediately available funds. 4. The Notes shall bear interest at the rate of 8% per annum, and the Debentures shall bear interest at the rate of 8- 3/4% per annum, in each case from December 1, 1993 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, to the persons in whose names the Notes and the Debentures, respectively, are registered at the close of business on the May 15 or November 15, as the case may be (each, a "Regular Record Date"), next preceding such Interest Payment Date. 5. Until otherwise notified to the Trustee pursuant to Section 1002 of the Indenture, principal of and interest on the Notes and Debentures shall be made at the Corporate Trust office (as defined in the Indenture) of the Trustee. 6. Interest on the Notes and the Debentures shall be payable semi-annually on June 1 and December 1 of each year commencing June 1, 1994, in each case in immediately available funds. 7.

The amount of the Make-Whole Premium in respect of the principal amount of any Designated Security to be redeemed will be the excess, if any, of (i) the sum of the present values, as of the Redemption Date of such Designated Security, of (A) the respective interest payments (exclusive of the amount of accrued interest to the Redemption Date) on such Designated Security that, but for such redemption, would have been payable on their respective Interest Payment Dates after such Redemption Date, and (B) the payment of such principal amount that, but for such redemption, would have been payable at maturity over (ii) the amount of such principal to be redeemed. Such present values will be determined in accordance with generally recognized principles of financial analysis by discounting the amounts of such payments of interest and principal from their respective Stated Maturities to such Redemption Date at a discount rate equal to the Treasury Yield. The Make-Whole Premium will be calculated by an independent investment banking institution of national standing appointed by the Company which may be one of the Underwriters; provided, that if the Company fails to make such appointment at least 10 days prior to the Redemption Date, or if the institution so appointed is unwilling or unable to make such calculation, such calculation will be made by Goldman, Sachs & Co. or, if Goldman, Sachs & Co. is unwilling or unable to make such calculation, by an independent investment banking institution of national standing appointed by the Trustee (in any such case, an "Independent Investment Banker"). For purposes of determining the Make-Whole Premium with respect to any Designated Securities, "Treasury Yield" means a rate of interest per annum, determined by the Independent Investment Banker as of the third Business Day preceding the applicable Redemption Date, equal to the weekly average yield to maturity of United States Treasury Notes having a constant maturity as set forth in the most recent weekly statistical release (or any successor release) published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and designated "H.15(519) Selected Interest Rates" (the "H.15 Statistical Release") corresponding to the remaining term of such Designated Securities (calculated to the nearest 1/12 of a year) (the "Remaining Term"); such yield to be calculated by the Independent Investment Banker, by interpolation (unless the Remaining Term of such Designated Securities equals a constant maturity set forth in the H.15 Statistical Release) on a straight-line basis, between the weekly average yields (rounded, if necessary, to four decimal places) on (a) the United States Treasury Notes with a constant maturity closest to and greater than the Remaining Term and (b) the United States Treasury Notes with a constant maturity closest to and less than the Remaining Term, or if such weekly average yields are not available, by interpolation of comparable rates selected by the Independent Investment Banker. EXHIBIT 4(d)(3) FACE OF SECURITY. THIS SECURITY IS A GLOBAL SECURITY WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE INDENTURE HEREINAFTER REFERRED TO AND IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF A DEPOSITARY OR A NOMINEE THEREOF.

Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date and may either be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Securities of this series not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities of this series may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in said Indenture. Payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security will be made at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in The City of New York, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

This Security is one of the series designated on the face hereof, limited in aggregate principal amount to $100,000,000. The Securities of this series may be redeemed at the Company's option, in whole or from time to time in part, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' notice mailed to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed at the address of such Holder appearing in the Security Register, on any date prior to maturity at (i) a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus (ii) accrued interest to the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest due on an Interest Payment Date that is on or prior to the Redemption Date), plus (iii) a Make-Whole Premium, if any. The amount of the Make-Whole Premium in respect of the principal amount of this Security to be redeemed shall be the excess, if any, of (i) the sum of the present values, as of the Redemption Date of this Security, of (A) the respective interest payments (exclusive of the amount of accrued interest to the Redemption Date) on this Security that, but for such redemption, would have been payable on their respective Interest Payment Dates after such Redemption Date, and (B) the payment of such principal amount that, but for such redemption, would have been payable at maturity over (ii) the amount of such principal to be redeemed. Such present values will be determined in accordance with generally recognized principles of financial analysis by discounting the amounts of such payments of interest and principal from their respective Stated Maturities to such Redemption Date at a discount rate equal to the Treasury Yield. The Make-Whole Premium shall be calculated by an independent investment banking institution of national standing appointed by the Company, which may be one of the Underwriters named in the Prospectus Supplement, dated December 2, 1993; provided, that if the Company fails to make such appointment at least 10 days prior to the Redemption Date, or if the institution so appointed is unwilling or unable to make such calculation, such calculation will be made by Goldman, Sachs & Co. or, if Goldman, Sachs & Co. is unwilling or unable to make such calculation, by an independent investment banking institution of national standing appointed by the Trustee (in any such case, an "Independent Investment Banker"). For purposes of determining the Make-Whole Premium, "Treasury Yield" means a rate of interest per annum, determined by the Independent Investment Banker as of the third Business Day preceding the applicable Redemption Date, equal to the weekly average yield to maturity of United States Treasury Notes having a constant maturity as set forth in the most recent weekly statistical release (or any successor release) published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and designated "H.15(519) Selected Interest Rates" (the "H.15 Statistical Release") corresponding to the remaining term of this Security (calculated to the nearest 1/12 of a year) (the "Remaining Term"); such yield to be calculated by the Independent Investment Banker, by interpolation (unless the Remaining Term of this Security equals a constant maturity set forth in the H.15 Statistical Release) on a straight-line basis, between the weekly average yields (rounded, if necessary, to four decimal places) on (a) the United States Treasury Notes with a constant maturity closest to and greater than the Remaining Term and (b) the United States Treasury Notes with a constant maturity closest to and less than the Remaining Term, or if such weekly average yields are not available, by interpolation of comparable rates selected by the Independent Investment Banker.

The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of the entire indebtedness of this Security or certain restrictive covenants and Events of Default with respect to this Security, in each case upon compliance with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture. If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Securities of this series may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of 66 2/3% in principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of each series to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security. As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Security shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of this series, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Securities of this series at the time Outstanding shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee reasonable indemnity, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of Securities of this series at the time Outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity. The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Security for the enforcement of any payment of principal hereof or any premium or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed herein. No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and any premium and interest on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1000 and any integral multiple thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series and of like tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. Prior to due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

Edmonds ----------------------- Authorized Officer REVERSE OF SECURITY. This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the "Securities"), issued and to be issued in one or more series under an Indenture, dated as of December 1, 1993, (herein called the "Indenture", which term shall have the meaning assigned to it in such instrument), between the Company and The Chase Manhattan Bank (National Association), as Trustee (herein called the "Trustee", which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), and reference is hereby made to the Indenture for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Security is one of the series designated on the face hereof, limited in aggregate principal amount to $100,000,000. The Securities of this series may be redeemed at the Company's option, in whole or from time to time in part, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' notice mailed to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed at the address of such Holder appearing in the Security Register, on any date prior to maturity at (i) a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus (ii) accrued interest to the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest due on an Interest Payment Date that is on or prior to the Redemption Date), plus (iii) a Make-Whole Premium, if any. The amount of the Make-Whole Premium in respect of the principal amount of this Security to be redeemed shall be the excess, if any, of (i) the sum of the present values, as of the Redemption Date of this Security, of (A) the respective interest payments (exclusive of the amount of accrued interest to the Redemption Date) on this Security that, but for such redemption, would have been payable on their respective Interest Payment Dates after such Redemption Date, and (B) the payment of such principal amount that, but for such redemption, would have been payable at maturity over (ii) the amount of such principal to be redeemed. Such present values will be determined in accordance with generally recognized principles of financial analysis by discounting the amounts of such payments of interest and principal from their respective Stated Maturities to such Redemption Date at a discount rate equal to the Treasury Yield. The Make-Whole Premium shall be calculated by an independent investment banking institution of national standing appointed by the Company, which may be one of the Underwriters named in the Prospectus Supplement, dated December 2, 1993; provided, that if the Company fails to make such appointment at least 10 days prior to the Redemption Date, or if the institution so appointed is unwilling or unable to make such calculation, such calculation will be made by Goldman, Sachs & Co. or, if Goldman, Sachs & Co. is unwilling or unable to make such calculation, by an independent investment banking institution of national standing appointed by the Trustee (in any such case, an "Independent Investment Banker"). For purposes of determining the Make-Whole Premium, "Treasury Yield" means a rate of interest per annum, determined by the Independent Investment Banker as of the third Business Day preceding the applicable Redemption Date, equal to the weekly average yield to maturity of United States Treasury Notes having a constant maturity as set forth in the most recent weekly statistical release (or any successor release) published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and designated "H.15(519) Selected Interest Rates" (the "H.15 Statistical Release") corresponding to the remaining term of this Security (calculated to the nearest 1/12 of a year) (the "Remaining Term"); such yield to be calculated by the Independent Investment Banker, by interpolation (unless the Remaining Term of this Security equals a constant maturity set forth in the H.15 Statistical Release) on a straight-line basis, between the weekly average yields (rounded, if necessary, to four decimal places) on (a) the United States Treasury Notes with a constant maturity closest to and greater than the Remaining Term and (b) the United States Treasury Notes with a constant maturity closest to and less than the Remaining Term, or if such weekly average yields are not available, by interpolation of comparable rates selected by the Independent Investment Banker. In the event of redemption of this Security in part only, a new Security or Securities of this series and of like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof. The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of the entire indebtedness of this Security or certain restrictive covenants and Events of Default with respect to this Security, in each case upon compliance with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture. If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Securities of this series may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of 66 2/3% in principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of each series to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security. As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Security shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of this series, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Securities of this series at the time Outstanding shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee reasonable indemnity, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of Securities of this series at the time Outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity. The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Security for the enforcement of any payment of principal hereof or any premium or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed herein. No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and any premium and interest on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in any place where the principal of and any premium and interest on this Security are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities of this series and of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1000 and any integral multiple thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series and of like tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. Prior to due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary. All terms used in this Security which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

GLOBAL BULK SHIPPING MARKETS The bulk shipping industry is highly fragmented, with no one organization holding more than 2% of the total world fleet. With 58 ships totaling 5.4 million dwt, OSG ranks among the ten largest owners, including fleets owned by oil companies. Approximately 75% of the Company's voyage revenues in 1993, 78% in 1992 and 75% in 1991 came from carrying petroleum and its derivatives. These liquid cargoes also accounted for the majority of the voyage revenues of OSG's bulk shipping joint ventures. International Tanker Markets In 1993, the international tanker markets improved somewhat from the depressed levels of 1992, but remained difficult throughout the year due to: - - weakness in key industrial economies, - - moderate increases in oil demand from major oil-importing countries, - - shifts in oil supply patterns that on balance muted the increase in tonnage demand, and - - an expansion of the world tanker fleet over the last few years. Oil Supply and Demand Developments Both Europe and Japan experienced severe recessions in 1993, adversely affecting global oil demand. Total world oil demand remained flat with 1992. Excluding the former Soviet Union (FSU), however, oil consumption increased by nearly 2%, almost all of which occurred in the developing economies of Asia and Latin America. Supply patterns also shifted. U.S. and FSU oil production fell while the North Sea and Latin America registered increases in export volumes. Together, these developments resulted in a change of incremental crude sources from long- haul to short-haul routes, as the North Sea and Latin America provided most of the additional crude imports to the United States. This dampened the rise in tonnage requirements. Growth in the World Tanker Fleet In 1993, the world tanker fleet registered its sixth straight year of growth, increasing by 5 million dwt to 265 million dwt by year- end. Newbuilding deliveries amounted to 17 million dwt, the highest since 1977. The lack of a solid recovery in the international tanker markets in 1993 was partially attributable to the delivery of a significant number of newbuildings ordered during the recent tanker market peak of 1990-91. From the long-term perspective, fleet growth over the last two years has not been excessive. However, it has outpaced growth in tonnage demand. Scrappings rose to 12 million dwt versus 10 million dwt in 1992. Over the next few years, scrappings are likely to continue to be significant, reflecting both the age of the fleet and stricter regulatory requirements. About 57% of the world's tanker fleet is 15 years old or more, including two thirds of all VLCCs (very large crude carriers --tankers more than 200,000 dwt). At year-end, the amount of international tanker tonnage in lay- up remained flat at 3 million dwt, still a relatively low level. Tanker newbuilding prices weakened early in 1993, and this trend has continued into 1994, in part reflecting current difficult charter markets. Secondhand prices for modern vessels strengthened somewhat, but generally remained weak for vessels more than ten years of age. Contracting for new orders increased over 1992 but did not keep pace with deliveries. Thus, the newbuilding orderbook for delivery over the next three years fell by 5 million dwt to 24 million dwt (10 million dwt scheduled in 1994), and fleet growth is expected to moderate over the next year or two. Environmental Concerns During the past five years, the tanker business has experienced a more stringent regulatory environment, a greater emphasis on quality, and more inspections by governmental authorities and charterers. It is anticipated that in the coming years these trends will make it increasingly difficult for poorly maintained ships to find employment and will improve the market for high-quality owners such as OSG. Between 1995 and 2015, the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (OPA 90) phases in a requirement that all tankers entering U.S. waters have double hulls. OPA 90 also significantly expands the potential liability of tanker owners for environmental accidents in U.S. waters. In addition, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) will phase out all single-hulled tankers in international waters at 25 years of age unless other environmental safety steps are taken. IMO regulations also require double hulls or equivalent tanker designs for newbuilding orders. Since OSG maintains a modern fleet, these double-hull requirements will not apply to most of the Company's existing tanker fleet until the next decade, at which time these ships will have operated for substantially all of their economic lives. All of the tankers OSG has on order will be double- hulled. International Dry Bulk Markets Overall seaborne shipments in 1993 of the major dry bulk commodities --coal, iron ore and grain --decreased marginally from the prior year. The major economic forces at work were the persistent recessions in Europe and Japan counterbalanced by booming growth in the developing nations, most notably China, Korea and Taiwan. Rates in the dry bulk markets moved higher during the first five months of 1993, recovering from their lows in the fall of 1992, but relinquished much of those gains by year-end as demand slackened, particularly for seaborne shipments of coal and iron ore. Rising Industrial Demand in the Far East Weak demand for steel in Europe resulted in a decrease in seaborne iron ore imports in 1993 relative to 1992. Japanese imports of iron ore and coking coal rose modestly in 1993 versus the prior year. These increases reflected the strong demand for steel exports to China, not improved economic conditions in Japan, where steel consumption declined in 1993. Besides importing a large quantity of steel, China stepped up its domestic production, resulting in a substantial year-over-year rise in its seaborne imports of iron ore. Reduced Grain Imports Grain, which was the only one of the three major dry bulk commodities to show a significant increase in seaborne trade in 1992, experienced a decline in 1993. The major purchasers of grain in recent years, the FSU and China, both had increased domestic supplies in 1993, enabling them to decrease their purchases on the world market. As southern Africa began to recover from its drought, local corn production rose in 1993, reducing the region's requirements for substantial seaborne imports of grain. Moderate Increase in Dry Bulk Fleet After remaining virtually unchanged during 1992, the dry bulk fleet increased by nearly 2% to 221 million dwt by year-end. Newbuilding deliveries of 8 million dwt were well above 1992 but still not historically high. Scrappings moved up slightly to over 4 million dwt. Dry bulk tonnage in lay-up remained small at less than 2 million dwt. The newbuilding orderbook for delivery over the next three years expanded in 1993, reaching 21 million dwt, up from 15 million dwt in 1992, as shipowners sought to replace aging vessels to meet more stringent environmental and safety requirements. Of this total, 9 million dwt are scheduled for delivery in 1994. U.S. Markets Shipping between U.S. coastal ports, including the movement of Alaskan oil, is reserved by law primarily to U.S. flag vessels owned by U.S. citizens, crewed by U.S. seafarers, and built in the United States without construction subsidies and operated without operating differential subsidies. U.S. flag vessels also receive preference in carrying U.S. military and U.S. government-sponsored shipments throughout the world. With 13 tankers and product carriers, OSG is the largest independent owner and operator of unsubsidized U.S. flag vessels. The Company has two dry bulk carriers, which participate in the preference trades, and one car carrier on long-term charter transporting vehicles to and from Japan. In recent years, the size of the U.S. flag fleet has been declining because of eroding commercial opportunities, higher U.S. construction and operating costs, and a stricter operating environment mandated under OPA 90. There has been no significant U.S. flag tanker construction in the last five years, and the average age of the unsubsidized (Jones Act) tanker fleet is now approximately 19 years. At year-end 1993, the unsubsidized U.S. flag tanker fleet totaled 8 million dwt, down by 540,000 dwt from a year earlier and by over 2 million dwt since the end of 1988. Of the current fleet, seven vessels, totaling about 620,000 dwt, were laid up at year-end. Alaskan Crude Developments Alaskan crude oil shipments provide the main source of employment for U.S. flag crude carriers. All eight of OSG's U.S. flag crude carriers are employed in the Alaskan trade. In 1993, Alaskan crude shipments declined as production decreased 7% to 1.66 million barrels per day (b/d). This drop partly reflects the ongoing decline in mature Alaska North Slope fields, but last year's decrease was exacerbated by production equipment maintenance and weather problems as well as temporary shutdowns to upgrade gas-handling facilities. The first phase of the upgrading was completed last fall, resulting in a 50,000 b/d rise in crude output. A similar increase is expected in 1994 when the second phase of the project is completed. In addition, a new field, Point McIntyre, came on-stream in October, initially producing 80,000 b/d. Together these increases are mitigating the production decline in Prudhoe Bay and other mature fields, particularly over the next couple of years. Significantly more tanker tonnage is required for longer haul shipments of Alaskan crude to the U.S. Gulf and East Coasts, via the Panama Pipeline, than for movements to the West Coast. As Alaskan production fell in 1993, the marginal volume for long-haul shipment via Panama to the U.S. Gulf and East Coasts was nonexistent in some months, resulting in a 15% drop year-over-year in the amount of tonnage required to transport Alaskan crude. Weak U.S. Flag Product Tanker Markets U.S. flag product tankers, ranging in size up to 60,000 dwt, carry gasoline, diesel fuel, jet fuel and other refined petroleum products. These ships compete with pipelines, oceangoing barges and, with regard to imports, foreign flag product carriers. OSG has five ships that participate in the U.S. flag product market. Tonnage demand in the domestic product tanker trades continued to decline in 1993, especially on the key Gulf to East Coast route, as pipeline shipments and East Coast refinery output rose. The decline was mitigated by sales for scrap. Rates showed slight improvement from the poor levels achieved in 1992. Government Requirements Rise U.S. government-related cargoes also generate demand for U.S. flag vessels, including OSG's two U.S. flag dry bulk carriers. Federal law requires that preference be given to U.S. flag vessels, if available at reasonable rates, in the shipment of at least half of all U.S. government-generated cargoes and 75% of food aid cargoes. The volume of U.S. preference cargoes shipped in 1993 nearly doubled, largely as a result of a $700 million agricultural aid package for Russia. This attracted idle U.S. flag tankers into the preference trades. Regulatory Matters Exports of Alaskan crude oil have been restricted by law since 1973. Additional, more stringent limitations were incorporated in the Export Administration Act of 1979, which has been extended to June 30, 1994. A lawsuit brought by the State of Alaska challenging the legality of these export restrictions was recently dismissed by the Federal District Court. By law, vessels built with construction differential subsidies and operated with operating differential subsidies (ODS) have not been permitted in the Jones Act trade. Under a recent Maritime Administration interpretation, product tankers and crude carriers built with subsidies may be eligible for full coastwise privileges when they reach 20 years of age and their ODS contracts expire. The Company believes that this interpretation is contrary to law and has commenced litigation seeking to overrule it. Should the lawsuit fail, it is possible that several older product and crude carriers may enter the coastwise trade over the next few years. - ---------- Primary Data Sources: Fearnleys Review 1993, Clarkson Research Studies, Maritime Administration, State of Alaska and U.S. Department of Energy CELEBRITY CRUISE LINES INC. Nineteen ninety-three marked the first full year of operation for Celebrity Cruise Lines Inc. (CCLI), a joint venture between OSG and the Chandris Cruise Division. While this joint venture represents a major diversification for OSG, it continues a business begun by Chandris more than 30 years ago. Today the fleet of CCLI is marketed under two distinct brand names: Celebrity Cruises and Fantasy Cruises. Celebrity Cruises is positioned firmly in the premium segment of the cruise market with three ships -- the Zenith, Horizon and Meridian --having a total of 3,834 berths. Traveling mainly to the Caribbean and Bermuda, Celebrity Cruises draws passengers from around the world to these popular destinations. Attention to passenger comfort and enjoyment is the hallmark of a Celebrity Cruise. Fantasy Cruises, with two ships --the Britanis and Amerikanis - --and 1,543 berths, appeals to more budget-conscious passengers and travels mainly to the Caribbean, Mexico, South America and Europe. Many of Fantasy's passengers are first-time cruisers. Last year, Celebrity and Fantasy Cruises' five ships sailed on 48 different itineraries that ranged from two to 52 nights and called at 114 destinations on five continents. CCLI markets its cruises through a dedicated sales team in the United States as well as an extensive network of general sales agents in Mexico, Central America, South America, the Caribbean and Europe. Within the United States, more than 95% of all cruises are sold through travel agencies. Approximately 20,000 travel agencies market cruises; over half of them actively promote CCLI's programs. Besides targeting individual vacationers, CCLI also pursues the incentive market, one of the fastest growing areas of the cruise industry.

The North American Cruise Market North America dominates the global cruise market, with more than 80% of the total passengers carried. The cruise industry in North America is characterized by large and generally well-capitalized companies and is highly competitive. According to the Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA), the largest six companies, including CCLI, have approximately 68% of total capacity, and the largest 15 companies have approximately 94% of total capacity. Today there are over 60 cruise brands from which to choose. Growth in Cruise Demand Growth in demand, as measured by the number of passengers carried, averaged approximately 10% per annum between 1984 and 1993 for the North American market. In 1993, U.S. and Canadian passengers carried reached an industry record, rising 9% to an estimated 4.5 million. Even though demand growth in 1993 was less than the ten- year average, discounting abated somewhat from the previous year. Growth in the cruise industry stems from a number of factors. The all-inclusive price for dining, entertainment, accommodations and air transportation is perceived by consumers as a convenience and an excellent value. Over the years, cruise companies have added new ships, expanded itineraries, and increased shipboard and shoreside activities, thus attracting a wider range of age and income groups, stimulating industry growth and capturing a growing percentage of the $285 billion leisure market. Supply Outlook From 1990 to 1992, the cruise industry experienced significant discounting and substantial increases in supply as new capacity averaged 10% each year and the U.S. economy experienced negative or slow growth. Both of CCLI's lines participated in stronger markets during 1993 as the U.S. economy improved and capacity additions lessened. In 1993, supply increases slowed to 6%, as 13,500 berths were added and nearly 7,500 berths were removed through retirements, redeployments and shutdowns. At year-end 1993, North American cruise capacity was estimated to be 104,000 berths. Based on the newbuilding orderbook, CLIA forecasts that capacity will grow 3% in 1994 and 10% in 1995 and in 1996, before taking into account any retirements and deletions from the existing fleet. Given the three-year lead time needed to construct new ships, it is unlikely that any other new vessels will enter service before 1996. One factor certain to influence the industry in the next several years is the International Maritime Organization's Safety of Life At Sea (SOLAS) convention, which established minimum safety, fire prevention and fire fighting standards. Under SOLAS requirements, all passenger ships must have upgraded fire detection and fire fighting systems by October 1, 1997. Since substantial capital expenditures may be needed to bring older vessels into compliance with these requirements, it is likely that some ships for which such capital expenditures would not be economical will be removed from the market. Two of CCLI's Celebrity vessels were delivered in 1990 and 1992, respectively, and the third was rebuilt in 1990. On the basis of present estimates, any work necessary for these ships to meet 1997 SOLAS requirements can be done without material capital expenditures. Celebrity Earns Recognition Celebrity's focus on quality and service has won acclaim from passengers, travel agents and industry followers alike. In October 1993, Celebrity Cruises was rated one of the top ten cruise lines by the readers of CONDE NAST TRAVELER for the third year in a row. Since its creation just four years ago, Celebrity Cruises has received numerous awards for outstanding quality and service, including a prestigious five-star rating by Berlitz, top honors in cuisine from the World Ocean & Cruise Liner Society, the top service award from ONBOARD SERVICE magazine and the International Cruise Passenger Association's "Cruise Line of the Year" award. Celebrity Newbuilding Program In March 1993, CCLI announced that it had signed a contract with Jos. L. Meyer GmbH & Co., Papenburg, Germany for the construction of a 1,760-passenger cruise ship at a price of approximately $317.5 million. The ship will be delivered in late 1995. CCLI subsequently committed to purchase a sistership for delivery in the fall of 1996 and continues to hold an option for a third, which it intends to exercise. Upon delivery of the third sistership, Celebrity Cruises' capacity in the premium segment of the cruise industry will more than double. These ships will inaugurate CCLI's new "Century" series of vessels, designed to meet the needs of cruise vacationers into the next century. The expansion is expected to provide economies of scale in operations and marketing, and to increase brand recognition of the Celebrity Cruise experience. Looking Ahead While the cruise industry has enjoyed substantial growth over the past decade, the next several years will be challenging ones as new ships enter service and the impact of SOLAS is felt in the market. For strong, well-financed companies such as CCLI, there will be many opportunities. The newbuildings on order, the company's commitment to customer satisfaction and its innovative marketing efforts will reinforce CCLI's position as a significant participant in the cruise industry during the years ahead.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION OVERSEAS SHIPHOLDING GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES Operations Income from Vessel Operations Revenues and income from vessel operations of the Company are highly sensitive to patterns of supply and demand for vessels of the types and sizes owned and operated by the Company and the markets in which those vessels operate. Freight rates for major bulk commodities are determined by market forces including local and worldwide demand for such commodities, volumes of trade, distances between sources and destinations of cargoes and amount of available tonnage both at the time such tonnage is required and over periods of projected requirements. Available tonnage is affected, over time, by the amount of newbuilding deliveries and removal of existing tonnage from service. See "Global Bulk Shipping Markets" on pages 14-17 hereof. Results in particular periods are also affected by such factors as the mix between voyage and time charters, the timing of the completion of voyage charters, the time and prevailing rates when charters that are currently being performed were negotiated, the levels of applicable rates and the business available as particular vessels come off existing charters, and the timing of drydocking of vessels. Historically, the diversity of the Company's fleet has tended to cushion the effects of weakness in particular markets. However, 1992 was a particularly difficult year in that there was simultaneous weakness in all of the Company's major markets. Some of the effects of this weakness carried over into the results of the Company's operations in 1993, primarily in the first half. In general, market rates improved during 1993 from the depressed rates that prevailed in 1992, but still remain at levels below those of the years 1989 through 1991. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 1993, spot market freight rates for foreign flag VLCCs (over 200,000 dwt) and dry bulk carriers have weakened somewhat, while rates for foreign and U.S. flag products carriers have experienced seasonal increases. Income from vessel operations for 1993 increased by approximately $10,100,000 from the results for 1992. This increase was attributable to improvements of $9,500,000 in income from foreign flag bulk vessel operations and $7,100,000 in the Company's equity in the results of Celebrity Cruise Lines Inc., which was acquired in October 1992. The foreign flag bulk shipping improvement reflects increased charter market rates obtained in 1993 for certain Suezmax (approximately 128,000 dwt) and Aframax (approximately 96,000 dwt) tonnage, primarily in the second half of the year, compared to the rates obtained during 1992 for those vessels. The favorable effects of less tonnage being idle due to lack of employment in 1993 as compared to 1992 and reduced agency fees are also reflected. Income from foreign flag vessel operations in 1993 was adversely affected by lower charter rates in the first half of 1993 (primarily in the first quarter) for most classes of tankers and dry bulk vessels compared with rates obtained in 1992, and by substantially lower VLCC rates for certain tonnage throughout 1993. During 1992, certain foreign flag vessels were operating on time charters negotiated in prior periods when rates were more favorable. Income from operations of the U.S. flag fleet declined approximately $6,500,000 in 1993 compared to 1992, resulting primarily from a crude carrier being idle due to lack of employment. This was partially offset by better operating results for two U.S. flag dry bulk carriers, reflecting fewer idle days and better rates. Income from vessel operations for 1992 decreased by approximately $72,600,000 from the results for 1991. Over 90% of this decrease was attributable to a decline in income from foreign flag vessel operations, reflecting reduced charter market rates in 1992 for all classes of the Company's international flag tanker and dry cargo fleets compared with rates prevailing during 1991. Included in the 1992 foreign flag results was the effect on revenues of more tonnage being idle due to lack of employment. The 1992 decrease also reflects reduced income from operations of the U.S. flag fleet, resulting from lower charter rates for certain of OSG's petroleum products carriers and certain crude carrier tonnage; the effect on revenues of increased drydockings in 1992 as compared to 1991 is also included. The U.S. flag decline for all of 1992 was net of first-quarter 1992 charter rate improvements for certain of OSG's crude carriers. Voyage expenses, such as fuel and port costs, are paid by the vessel owner under a voyage charter and by the charterer under a time charter. The increases in vessel and voyage expenses in 1993 and 1992 from the respective preceding years each reflect a higher proportion of voyage charters to time charters. Vessel operating expenses were also higher in 1993 and 1992 as compared to 1992 and 1991, respectively, because of increased manning on most U.S. flag tankers to comply with provisions of the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 and increases in certain other expense categories (see Effects of Inflation below). The 1992 increase reflects charter hire expense on a vessel delivered to the Company in 1992 on a seven-year time charter. The effect of vessels sold is also reflected. The increase in income attributable to bulk shipping joint ventures in 1993 as compared to 1992 resulted from improved rates on certain tonnage and decreases in certain expenses. Provision for loss on sale of a 50%-owned vessel subsequent to year-end is reflected in 1993. The decline in income attributable to bulk shipping joint ventures in 1992 as compared to 1991 resulted primarily from decreases in charter rates obtained for certain tonnage and increases in costs of operations. Other Income (Net) The details of other income for the three-year period are shown in Note K on page 39 of this report. Interest and dividends decreased in 1993 from 1992 because of reduced amounts utilized for interest- bearing deposits and investments and generally lower rates of return on such deposits and investments. Gain on disposal of vessels was approximately $12,100,000 in 1993 compared to a provision for loss of approximately $1,300,000 in 1992. Gain on sale of securities approximated $9,100,000 in 1993 compared to approximately $14,100,000 in the preceding year. Other income also reflects the results of foreign currency transactions and the effect of minority interest in both years, and an increase in 1993 compared to 1992 in income earned from other investments (included in miscellaneous--net). In 1992, the Company took a reserve of $20,000,000 ($13,100,000, or $.40 per share, net of income tax) for its entire investment in GPA Group plc. Interest and dividends in 1992 decreased from 1991 because of lower rates of return on interest-bearing deposits and investments and reduced amounts utilized for such deposits and investments. Gain on sale of securities was approximately $14,100,000 in 1992 compared to approximately $5,500,000 in 1991. There was a provision for loss on disposal of vessels of approximately $1,300,000 in 1992 compared to a gain of approximately $4,100,000 in 1991. Other income also reflects the results of foreign currency transactions and the effect of minority interest in both years, and a decrease in 1992 compared to 1991 in income earned from other investments (included in miscellaneous--net). Interest Expense Interest expense decreased in 1993 and 1992 from the respective preceding years, as a result of reduced rates on floating rate debt and increased interest costs capitalized in connection with vessel construction. The decreases were net of the effect of more debt being outstanding in 1993 and 1992 compared to 1992 and 1991, respectively. Interest expense in 1993 and 1992 also reflects $13,300,000 and $5,600,000, respectively, of net benefit from the interest rate swaps referred to below in Liquidity and Sources of Capital. Provision for Federal Income Taxes The provision for Federal income taxes in 1993 includes $2,900,000, or $.09 per share, of additional deferred taxes resulting from the increase in the Federal statutory rate from 34% to 35% enacted in 1993 and reflects the effect of the dividends received deduction and other nontaxable items. The tax credit in 1992 results from the pretax loss adjusted to reflect the dividends received deduction and other nontaxable items. Federal income taxes for each of the three years reflect the effects of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, including current taxation of the post-1986 results of the Company's foreign-owned bulk vessels. Cumulative Effect of Accounting Change The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("FAS 109"), starting in 1992. In accordance with FAS 109, financial statements of years prior to 1992 have not been restated. The impact of applying FAS 109 was to reduce deferred tax liabilities by $16,000,000, with a corresponding increase in net income (cumulative effect of change in accounting) for 1992. Liquidity and Sources of Capital Working capital at December 31, 1993 was approximately $99,000,000 as compared to $101,000,000 at year-end 1992 and $91,000,000 at year-end 1991. Current assets are highly liquid, consisting principally of cash, interest-bearing deposits and receivables. The Company also has investments in marketable securities carried as noncurrent assets, other than securities included in restricted funds, with a market value of approximately $21,000,000 at December 31, 1993. Net cash provided by operating activities approximated $69,000,000 in 1993, $10,000,000 in 1992 and $110,000,000 in 1991. The reserve in 1992 of $20,000,000 referred to in Other Income (Net) above had no effect on the Company's cash flow or cash resources. In addition to payments of current installments of long- term debt in all three years, the Company prepaid long-term debt aggregating $62,332,000 in 1992. Current financial resources, together with cash anticipated to be generated from operations, are expected to be adequate to meet requirements for short-term funds in 1994. The Company has an unsecured long-term credit facility of $500,000,000, of which $92,000,000 was used at December 31, 1993, and an unsecured short-term credit facility of $30,000,000, which was unused at that date. The Company finances vessel additions with cash provided by operating activities, long-term borrowings and capital lease obligations. In 1993, the Company sold an aggregate of $110,000,000 of long-term, unsecured senior notes to major institutional investors in a private placement. The notes have a weighted average life of approximately 12.25 years and a weighted average interest rate of 8.01%. The net proceeds were used to reduce amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Agreement. The Company also completed in 1993 a public debt offering of $100,000,000 of 8%, 10-year notes and $100,000,000 of 8.75%, 20- year debentures. The net proceeds were used to prepay predelivery vessel construction costs and to reduce amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Agreement. As of December 31, 1993, the Company is a party to fixed to floating interest rate swaps ranging between three and fifteen years with various banks covering notional amounts aggregating $685,000,000, pursuant to which it pays LIBOR and receives fixed rates ranging from 5.3% to 8.1% calculated on the notional amounts. These agreements have various maturity dates from 1995 to 2008. The Company is also a party to a five-year interest rate swap with a notional amount of $24,000,000, expiring in 1996, pursuant to which it pays a fixed interest rate of 8.4% and receives LIBOR, calculated on the notional amount. In March 1994, the Company sold 3,450,000 shares of its common stock for net proceeds of approximately $76,000,000, of which $50,000,000 will be used to reduce amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Agreement. The remaining proceeds will be added to working capital. In 1993, 1992 and 1991, cash used for vessel additions approximated $164,000,000, $81,000,000 and $59,000,000, respectively. At March 7, 1994, commitments with an aggregate unpaid cost of approximately $86,100,000 (net of $54,000,000 of prepayments made in January 1994) exist for the construction of six foreign flag bulk vessels, scheduled for delivery in 1994 and 1995. In 1992, the Company invested cash of approximately $220,000,000 for 49% of the equity of Celebrity Cruise Lines Inc. ("CCLI"), an owner and operator of five cruise ships. The cash invested by the Company in CCLI is being used primarily to finance the expansion of CCLI's fleet. Long-term borrowings in 1993 and 1992 aggregated approximately $310,000,000 and $292,000,000 (including amounts borrowed in connection with the investment in CCLI), respectively. Effects of Inflation Additions to the costs of operating the fleet due to wage increases and price level increases in certain other expense categories were experienced over the three-year period. In some cases, these increases were offset by rates available to tonnage open for chartering and to some extent by charter escalation provisions.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Overseas Shipholding Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries Note A - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies: 1. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries ("Company"). All subsidiaries are wholly owned, except four which are 80%-owned. Significant intercompany items and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in Celebrity Cruise Lines Inc. and the bulk shipping joint ventures (which are 50%-owned except one small venture which is 49%-owned) are stated at the Company's cost thereof adjusted for its proportionate share of the undistributed operating results of such companies. 2. As required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 95, "Statement of Cash Flows," only interest-bearing deposits that are highly liquid investments and have a maturity of three months or less when purchased are included in cash. 3. Depreciation of vessels is computed for financial reporting purposes based on cost, less estimated salvage value, by the straight-line method using a vessel life of 25 years. 4. Certain subsidiaries have bareboat charters-in on vessels that are accounted for as capital leases. Amortization of capital leases is computed by the straight-line method over 22 or 25 years, representing the terms of the leases (see Note M). 5. Time charters and a bareboat charter that are operating leases are reported on the accrual basis. Voyage charters are reported on the completed voyage basis. 6. The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("FAS 109"), starting in the first quarter of 1992. In accordance with FAS 109, the financial statements of years prior to 1992 have not been restated. The impact of applying FAS 109 was to reduce deferred tax liabilities by $16,000,000, with a corresponding increase in net income (cumulative effect of change in accounting) for 1992. The effect on income before cumulative effect of accounting change for 1992 was not material (see Note J). 7. Interest costs incurred during the construction of vessels (until the vessel is substantially complete and ready for its intended use) are capitalized. Interest capitalized aggregated $7,416,000 (1993), $6,158,000 (1992) and $399,000 (1991). Interest paid amounted to $42,093,000 (1993), $42,865,000 (1992) and $55,841,000 (1991), excluding capitalized interest. 8. The Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" ("FAS 115"), as of December 31, 1993. Adoption of this standard had no significant effect on the Company's financial statements. Under FAS 115 the Company's investments in marketable securities are classified as available- for-sale and are carried at market value. Net unrealized gains or losses are reported as a separate component of shareholders' equity. For prior years, the Company's investments in marketable equity securities were carried at the lower of aggregate cost or market, and the amount of the allowance for net unrealized loss on the noncurrent marketable equity securities was shown as a reduction of shareholders' equity. Note B - Business--Domestic and Foreign Operations: The Company is principally engaged in the ocean transportation of liquid and dry bulk cargoes in both the worldwide markets and the self-contained U.S. markets through the ownership and operation of a diversified fleet of bulk cargo vessels (principally tankers and dry bulk carriers). It also owns an equity investment in Celebrity Cruise Lines Inc. (see Note D), an owner and operator of cruise ships. Information about the Company's operations for the three years ended December 31, 1993 follows:

See Note J for information relating to taxation of income and undistributed earnings of foreign companies. The Company had one charterer (a U.S. oil company) during the above periods from which revenues exceeded 10% of revenues from voyages. Revenues from such charterer amounted to $73,656,000 in 1993, $84,349,000 in 1992 and $65,041,000 in 1991. Note C - Assets and Liabilities of Foreign Subsidiaries: A condensed summary of the combined assets and liabilities of the Company's foreign (incorporated outside the U.S.) subsidiaries, whose operations are principally conducted in U.S. dollars, follows:

Note D - Investment in Celebrity Cruise Lines Inc.: In October 1992, the Company invested cash of approximately $220 million for 49% of the equity of Celebrity Cruise Lines Inc. ("CCLI"), a newly formed joint venture that owns and operates five cruise vessels contributed to it by the co-venturer. In May 1993, the Company invested additional cash of approximately $2.7 million upon the final determination by CCLI's shareholders of the value of certain of its assets. Pursuant to the related agreements, CCLI functions as an equal joint venture and the approval of both shareholders is required for all substantive policy matters. A condensed summary of the assets and liabilities of CCLI and the results of its operations follows:
In thousands at December 31, 1993 1992 ---- ---- Current assets $ 147,344 $195,281 Vessels, net 670,459 635,403 Other assets 48,072 37,252 --------- -------- 865,875 867,936 --------- -------- Current installments of long- 42,593 43,316 term debt Other current liabilities 70,612 65,271 --------- --------- Total current liabilities 113,205 108,587 Long-term debt 286,624 312,940 --------- --------- 399,829 421,527 --------- --------- Net assets (principally capital contributions) $ 466,046 $446,409 ========= ========= Year Ended October 1 to In thousands December 31, December 31, 1993 1992 -------------- ---------------- Revenue $ 315,700 $ 68,046 Gain on sale of vessel -- 2,190 Costs and expenses (301,642) (70,667) --------- --------- Net income/(loss) $ 14,058 $ (431) ========= =========
As of March 7, 1994, CCLI has commitments with an aggregate unpaid cost of $570,000,000 for the construction of two cruise ships, one scheduled for delivery in late 1995 and the other in late 1996. Unpaid costs are net of $64,300,000 of progress payments (of which $15,400,000 was paid subsequent to December 31, 1993). Long-term financing arrangements exist for substantially all of the unpaid cost of these ships. Note E - Bulk Shipping Joint Ventures: Certain subsidiaries have investments in bulk shipping joint ventures (see Note A1). A condensed summary of the combined assets and liabilities and results of operations of the bulk shipping joint ventures follows:
In thousands at December 31, 1993 1992 ---- ---- Current assets (including $6,814 and $3,977 due from owners) $ 75,236 $ 49,764 Vessels, net 64,013 54,130 Other assets (including $33,172 and $37,830 due from owners) 34,880 39,930 ------- ------- 174,129 143,824 Current liabilities 6,792 3,575 ------- ------- Net assets (principally undistributed net earnings) $167,337 $140,249 ======== ======== In thousands for the year ended December 31, 1993 1992 1991 ---- ---- ---- Revenue, primarily from voyages (including $36,008, $36,490 and $36,102 from vessels chartered to other owners) $42,083 $ 48,461 $52,455 Costs and expenses 30,495 43,053 39,875 ------- -------- ------- Net income $11,588 $ 5,408 $12,580 ======= ======== =======
Income attributable to bulk shipping joint ventures for 1993 reflects the Company's loss ($815,000) from the sale of a 50%-owned vessel subsequent to year-end. In December 1992, a 50%-owned partnership that owned two 64,200 dwt bulk carriers built in 1983 sold one vessel. It distributed the remaining vessel to the Company and the proceeds of sale to the other partner (a subsidiary of a company whose chairman is a director and shareholder of the Company). The vessel distributed to the Company continues to operate in its international fleet. Note F - Investments in Marketable Securities: Certain information concerning the Company's marketable securities (including securities in Capital Construction and Restricted Funds), which consist of available-for-sale equity securities, follows:
In thousands at December 31, 1993 1992 ---- ---- Cost $72,974 $78,336 Less: net unrealized loss on marketable securities 3,590 10,851 ------- ------ Approximate market and carrying amount $69,384 $67,485 ======= =======
The decrease in the unrealized loss on marketable securities included as a separate component of shareholders' equity was $7,261,000 (1993), $10,775,000 (1992) and $17,156,000 (1991). At December 31, 1993, there were gross unrealized gains of $972,000 and losses of $4,562,000. At December 31, 1992, there were gross unrealized gains of $599,000 and losses of $11,450,000. At March 7,1994, the approximate aggregate market quotation of the above marketable securities was $70,600,000 and the net unrealized loss was reduced to approximately $2,350,000. Note G - Debt: Long-term debt exclusive of current installments follows:
In thousands at December 31, 1993 1992 ---- ---- Unsecured Senior Notes, due from 2000 through 2013, interest from 7.77% to 9.57% $310,000 $200,000 Unsecured Revolving Credit Agreement with banks 92,000 286,000 8-3/4% Debentures due 2013, net of unamortized discount of $321 99,679 -- 8% Notes due 2003, net of unamortized discount of $239 99,761 -- 8% to 10.58% unsecured Promissory Notes and Term Loans, due through 2001 47,925 56,646 10.5% and 10.58% secured Promissory Notes and Term Loans, due through 2001 44,373 49,626 8.45% United States Government Guaranteed Merchant Marine Bonds, due through 2006 11,820 12,850 -------- ------- $705,558 $605,122 ======== ========
The Revolving Credit Agreement provides for borrowings of up to $500,000,000 on a revolving credit basis through February 1996, which date may be extended a year at a time by mutual consent, after which the outstanding balance converts to a five-year term loan payable in ten equal semiannual installments. Interest during the revolving period is at the rate of 3/4% above the London Interbank Offered rate ("LIBOR") and during the term loan period is from 7/8% to 1% above LIBOR. The Company also has interest rate options related to either the certificate of deposit or prime rates. Agreements related to long-term debt provide for prepayment privileges (in certain instances with penalties), limitations on the amount of secured debt and total borrowings, and acceleration of payment under certain circumstances, including if any of the minimum consolidated financial covenants contained in certain of such agreements are not met. The most restrictive of these covenants require the Company to maintain positive consolidated working capital, consolidated net worth as of December 31, 1993 of approximately $575,000,000 (increasing quarterly by an amount related to net income), a ratio of total debt to net worth of not more than 1.75:1, and a liquid cash flow coverage ratio of at least 2.00:1. The amount that the Company can use for Restricted Payments, as defined, including dividends and purchases of its capital stock, is limited as of December 31, 1993, to $23,000,000. As of December 31, 1993, the Company is a party to fixed to floating interest rate swaps ranging between three and fifteen years with various banks covering notional amounts aggregating $685,000,000, pursuant to which it pays LIBOR and receives fixed rates ranging from 5.3% to 8.1% calculated on the notional amounts. These agreements have various maturity dates from 1995 to 2008. The Company is also a party to a five-year interest rate swap with a notional amount of $24,000,000, expiring in 1996, pursuant to which it pays a fixed interest rate of 8.4% and receives LIBOR, calculated on the notional amount. Payments and receipts under the swaps are being reflected as adjustments of interest expense, since such swaps are all designated as hedges in connection with existing debt and capital lease obligations. Approximately 25% of the net book amount of the Company's vessels, representing approximately 11% of the number of foreign flag and 55% of the number of U.S. flag vessels, is pledged as collateral for certain long-term debt. In some instances, debt is collateralized by revenues from certain charters. The aggregate annual principal payments required to be made on long-term debt for the five years subsequent to December 31, 1993 are $15,003,000 (1994), $16,414,000 (1995), $30,537,000 (1996), $37,736,000 (1997) and $32,174,000 (1998). The Company also has a $30,000,000 committed short-term line of credit facility with a bank, under which there were no outstanding borrowings as of December 31, 1993. Note H - Agency Fees and Brokerage Commissions: All subsidiaries with vessels and certain joint ventures are parties to agreements with Maritime Overseas Corporation ("Maritime") that provide, among other matters, for Maritime and its subsidiaries to render services related to the chartering and operation of the vessels and certain general and administrative services for which Maritime and its subsidiaries receive specified compensation. Vessel and voyage expenses include $6,009,000 (1993), $5,743,000 (1992) and $6,299,000 (1991) of brokerage commissions to Maritime. By agreement, Maritime's compensation for any year is limited to the extent Maritime's consolidated net income from shipping operations would exceed a specified amount (approximately $758,000 (1993), $689,000 (1992) and $627,000 (1991)). Maritime is owned by a director of the Company; directors or officers of the Company constitute all four of the directors and the majority of the principal officers of Maritime. Note I - Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments: The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments: Cash and interest-bearing deposits The carrying amount reported in the balance sheet for interest- bearing deposits approximates its fair value. Investment securities The fair value for marketable securities is based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes. Debt The carrying amounts of the borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement approximate their fair value. The fair values of the Company's other debt are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, based on the rates currently available for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities. Interest rate swaps The fair value of interest rate swaps (used for hedging purposes) is the estimated amount that the Company would receive or pay to terminate the swaps at the reporting date. Any gain or loss resulting from the termination of an interest rate swap would be recognized as an adjustment of interest expense over the average remaining term of the hedged debt. Foreign currency swaps The fair value of foreign currency swaps (used for hedging purposes- - -see Note M2) is the estimated amount that the Company would receive or pay to terminate the swaps at the reporting date. Any gain or loss resulting from the termination of the foreign currency swaps would be recognized as an adjustment of voyage revenues over the remaining term of the related charter. The estimated fair value of the Company's financial instruments follows:

Note J - Taxes: See Note A6. Effective from January 1, 1987, earnings of the foreign shipping companies (exclusive of CCLI) are subject to U.S. income taxation currently; post-1986 taxable income may be distributed to the U.S. parent without further tax. The foreign companies' shipping income earned from January 1, 1976 through December 31, 1986 ("Deferred Income") is excluded from U.S. income taxation to the extent that such income is reinvested in foreign shipping operations and the foreign shipping income earned before 1976 is not subject to tax unless distributed to the U.S. parent. A determination of the amount of qualified investments in foreign shipping operations, as defined, is made at the end of each year and such amount is compared to the corresponding amount at December 31, 1986. If during any determination period there is a reduction of qualified investments in foreign shipping operations, Deferred Income, limited to the amount of such reduction, would become subject to tax. Treasury Department regulations regarding the foregoing have not been revised to reflect law changes effective for post-1986 years. The Company believes that it will be reinvesting sufficient amounts in foreign shipping operations so that any significant U.S. income taxes on the undistributed income of its foreign companies accumulated through December 31, 1986 will be postponed indefinitely. U.S. income taxes on the income of its foreign companies accumulated through December 31, 1986 will be provided at such time as it becomes probable that a liability for such taxes will be incurred and the amount thereof can reasonably be estimated. No provision for U. S. income taxes on the income of the foreign shipping companies accumulated through December 31, 1986 was required at December 31, 1993 since undistributed earnings of foreign shipping companies have been reinvested or are intended to be reinvested in foreign shipping operations. As of December 31, 1993, such undistributed earnings aggregated approximately $475,000,000, including $114,000,000 earned prior to 1976; the unrecognized deferred U.S. income tax attributable to such undistributed earnings approximated $165,000,000. Further, no provision for U.S. income taxes on the Company's share of the undistributed earnings of CCLI was required, since it is intended that such undistributed earnings ($6,700,000 at December 31, 1993) will be indefinitely reinvested; the unrecognized deferred U.S. income tax attributable thereto approximated $2,300,000. Pursuant to the Merchant Marine Act of 1936, as amended, the Company is a party to an agreement that permits annual deposits, related to taxable income of certain of its domestic subsidiaries, into a Capital Construction Fund. Payments of Federal income taxes on such deposits and earnings thereon are deferred until, and if, such funds are withdrawn for nonqualified purposes or termination of the agreement; however, if withdrawn for qualified purposes (acquisition of vessels or retirement of debt on vessels), such funds remain tax deferred and the Federal income tax basis of any such vessel is reduced by the amount of such withdrawals. Under the agreement, the general objective is (by use of assets accumulated in the fund) for two vessels to be constructed or acquired by the end of 1999. Monies can remain tax-deferred in the fund for a maximum of 25 years (commencing January 1, 1987 for deposits prior thereto). The Company has historically provided deferred taxes on amounts in the fund. The significant components of the Company's deferred tax liabilities and assets follow:
In thousands at December 31, 1993 1992 ---- ---- Deferred tax liabilities: Excess of tax over statement depreciation--net $ 74,159 $ 68,053 Tax benefits of the Merchant Marine Act of 1936, as amended, on amounts accumulated in the Capital Construction Fund 28,739 26,266 Costs capitalized and amortized for statement, expensed for tax 9,656 12,446 Other--net 19,868 17,172 ------- -------- Total deferred tax liabilities 132,422 123,937 ------- -------- Deferred tax assets: Capital leases 12,052 11,827 Excess of tax over statement basis of investment in securities 7,070 6,800 Alternative minimum tax credit carryforwards, which can be carried forward indefinitely 6,839 4,163 ------ ------ Total deferred tax assets 25,961 22,790 ------ ------ Net deferred tax liabilities $106,461 $101,147 ======== ========
A Federal income tax refund of $6,221,000 was received in 1993. Federal income taxes paid amounted to $6,400,000 in 1992 and $11,000,000 in 1991. The components of income/(loss) before Federal income taxes and cumulative effect of accounting change follow:

Gross realized gains on sales of securities were $10,802,000 (1993), $15,728,000 (1992) and $6,931,000 (1991), and gross realized losses were $1,674,000 (1993), $1,616,000 (1992) and $1,478,000 (1991). Note L - Commitments and Other Comments: 1. As of March 7, 1994, commitments with an aggregate unpaid cost of approximately $86,100,000 exist for the construction of six foreign flag bulk vessels, scheduled for delivery in 1994 and 1995. Unpaid costs are net of $303,000,000 of progress payments and prepayments (of which $249,000,000 was paid prior to December 31, 1993) and of discounts resulting from such prepayments. 2. Sundry liabilities and accrued expenses consist of:
In thousands at December 31, 1993 1992 ---- ---- Payroll and benefits $ 3,384 $ 3,641 Interest 11,902 10,094 Insurance 4,350 5,205 Purchase of treasury stock -- 167 Other 6,212 6,589 ------- ------- $25,848 $25,696 ======= =======
3. Certain subsidiaries make contributions to union-sponsored multi- employer pension plans covering seagoing personnel. The Employee Retirement Income Security Act requires employers who are contributors to domestic multi-employer plans to continue funding their allocable share of each plan's unfunded vested benefits in the event of withdrawal from or termination of such plans. The Company has been advised by the trustees of such plans that it has no withdrawal liability as of December 31, 1993. Certain other seagoing personnel of U.S. flag vessels are covered under a subsidiary's defined contribution plan, the cost of which is funded as accrued. Note M - Leases: 1. Charters-in: The approximate minimum commitments under capital leases for eight U.S. flag vessels were:
In thousands at December 31, 1993 1994 $ 25,053 1995 25,528 1996 25,528 1997 25,528 1998 25,528 Beyond 1998 191,713 -------- Net minimum lease payments 318,878 Less amount representing interest 139,607 -------- Present value of net minimum lease payments $179,271 ========
Certain of the capital leases provide for deposits in restricted funds under certain circumstances. Such deposits aggregated approximately $4,950,000 at December 31, 1993 and are held as collateral for the related obligations. The Company has a time charter (which is an operating lease) for a 1992-built foreign flag tanker, which charter has a remaining term of approximately five years, at an annual time charter rental of approximately $8,800,000, assuming a full year's operations. Under the charter, the Company has renewal and purchase options. Time charter rental expense is not payable when the vessel is off-hire. 2. Charters-out: The Company's subsidiaries, as the owners of a diversified fleet of bulk vessels, engage in chartering out the vessels primarily on time and voyage charters and occasionally on bareboat charters. Revenues from vessels on time charter are dependent upon the ability to deliver and operate vessels in accordance with charter terms. Revenues from a time charter are not received when a vessel is off- hire, including time required for normal periodic maintenance of the vessel. The minimum future revenues expected to be received subsequent to December 31, 1993 on noncancelable time charters and a bareboat charter are $86,678,000 (1994), $29,154,000 (1995), $25,872,000 (1996), $23,032,000 (1997) and $19,535,000 (1998); the aggregate for 1999 and later years is $118,011,000. The foregoing amounts do not include escalations and do not purport to be an estimate of aggregate voyage revenues for any of the years. In arriving at the minimum future charter revenues, an estimated time off-hire to perform periodic maintenance on each vessel has been deducted, although there is no assurance that such estimate will be reflective of the actual off-hire in the future. The Company has hedged its exchange rate risk with respect to contracted future charter revenues receivable in a foreign currency by entering into currency swaps with a major financial institution to deliver such foreign currency at rates which will result in the Company receiving approximately $150,000,000 for such foreign currency through 2004. Changes in the value of the currency swaps are deferred and are offset against corresponding changes in the value of the charter hire, over the related charter periods. Note N - Capital Stock and Per Share Amounts: The Company's 1989 nonqualified stock option plan, as amended, covered 570,000 treasury shares. Options were granted to certain officers of the Company and a subsidiary for the purchase of all the shares covered by the amended plan, at $14.00 per share, which was in excess of the market price at the date of grant; 20% of the options vest and become exercisable on each October 9, from 1991 through 1995. These options remain exercisable until October 2000. During 1993, options for 10,000 shares were exercised. Options for 560,000 shares are outstanding and options for 332,000 shares are exercisable at December 31, 1993. At December 31, 1993, the Company has reserved 764,511 treasury shares for issuance pursuant to (i) its 1990 nonqualified stock option plan, which covered options for 5,520 shares granted by the Company to employees (except senior officers), and (ii) an agreement, as amended, to make available for purchase by Maritime (see Note H) 758,991 shares (including an increase of 200,000 shares in 1993). Maritime can acquire the shares reserved for it only for the purpose of fulfilling its obligations under its 1990 nonqualified stock option plan, as amended. The exercise price of the options granted by the Company to its employees is $16.00 per share, and the prices for any shares Maritime purchases from the Company range from $16.00 to $19.63 per share (the market prices at dates of grant). The options granted have a term of approximately nine years and become exercisable in annual increments of 20% upon the option holder's completion of five years of service. Certain details of activity in the Company's 1990 plan and Maritime's plan are summarized as follows:
Company's Maritime's 1990 Plan Plan --------- ---------- Options Outstanding at January 1, 1991 16,630 484,435 Canceled (270) (19,917) ------ ------- Options Outstanding at December 31, 1991 16,360 464,518 Granted -- 30,000 Canceled (9,968) (31,262) Exercised ($16.00 per share) -- (5,035) ------- ------- Options Outstanding at December 31, 1992 6,392 458,221 Granted -- 190,000 Canceled -- (23,899) Exercised ($16.00 per share) (872) (20,409) ----- ------- Options Outstanding at December 31, 1993 5,520 603,913 ===== ======= Options Exercisable at December 31, 1993 2,046 197,268 ===== =======
Net income per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each year, 32,678,031 shares (1993), 32,805,549 shares (1992) and 33,012,233 shares (1991). The aforementioned stock options have not been included in the computation of net income per share since their effect thereon would not be material. In March 1994, the Company sold 3,450,000 shares of its common stock for net proceeds of approximately $76,000,000, of which $50,000,000 will be used to reduce amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Agreement. The remaining proceeds will be added to working capital. The effect on net income per share assuming this transaction had occurred at the beginning of 1993 was not material.
