Maria Laura Prem (owner) pursuant to which MLS and the owner have agreed to the early termination of the existing charter on or before April 30, 2013.

The consideration for the early termination of the charter of the vessel is issue of 45,140,124 new ordinary shares (Compensation Shares) in the capital of MLS subject to compliance of applicable laws, regulations or listing rules of the Singapore Exchange Securities Trading (the SGX-ST).
