A. Charter hire and bond

CLAUSE 1. Basic charter hire. The Charterer shall pay to the Owner the basic charter hire at the monthly rate provided for in Part I hereof from the day and hour of delivery of the Vessel until and including the day and hour of redelivery to the Owner pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; or if any Vessel shall be lost, hire shall continue until the time of such loss, if known, or if the time of loss be uncertain, then up to and including the time last heard from. Payment of such basic charter hire shall be made to the Owner at Washington, D. C., on delivery of each Vessel for the remainder of the calendar month in which delivery is made, and thereafter monthly in advance of the first day of each month.

CLAUSE 2. Additional charter hire. (a) If, at the end of the calendar year in which this agreement becomes effective, or any subsequent calendar year or at the termination of this Agreement, the cumulative net voyage profit (after the payment of the basic charter hire herein above specified and payment of the Charterer's fair and reasonable overhead expenses applicable to operation of the Vessel(s)) shall exceed 10 per centum per annum on the Charterer's capital necessarily employed in the business of the Vessel(s) (all as hereinafter defined), the Charterer shall pay over to the Owner at Washington, D. C., within thirty (30) days after the end of such year or other period, as additional charter hire for such year or other period, an amount equal to one-half of such cumulative net voyage profit in excess of 10 per centum per annum on the Charterer's capital necessarily employed in the business of the Vessel(s). Such cumulative net profit so accounted for shall not be included in any calculation of cumulative net profit in any subsequent year or period.

For purposes of calculating "cumulative net voyage profit" it is agreed by the parties that at the end of each accounting period any net voyage losses and/or any unearned portion of the aforesaid allowable return of 10% per annum on capital necessarily employed, may be carried forward into the next accounting period, but that in no event shall profits in excess of 10% per annum on

capital employed, at the end of any accounting period, be carried forward into the next accounting period; such profits being subject to distribution at the end of each accounting period as herein provided.

(b) The Charterer agrees to make preliminary payments to the Owner on account of such additional charter hire at such time and in such manner and amounts as may be required by the Owner; provided, however, that such payment of additional charter hire shall be deemed to be preliminary and subject to adjustment either at the time of the rendition of preliminary statements or upon the completion of each final audit by the Owner, at which times such payments will be made to the Owner as such preliminary statements or final audit may show to be due, or such overpayments refunded to the Charterer as may be required.

CLAUSE 3. Bond. The Charterer, at or before delivery of each Vessel under this Agreement, shall furnish the Owner with a bond with sufficient surety, in the amount specifiled in Part I hereof, such bond to be approved by the Owner, both as to form and sufficiency of the sureties, and to be conditioned upon the true and faithful performance of all and singular the covenants and agreements of the Charterer contained in this Agreement, including, but not limited to, the Charterer's obligation to pay charter hire and damages and to indemnify against liens. The Charterer may, in lieu of furnishing such bond, pledge United States Government securities in the par value of the required amount under an agreement satisfactory in form and substance to the Owner. B. Condition of Vessel(s) Equipment and Stores

CLAUSE 4. Condition of vessel(s) on delivery. Each Vessel on delivery shall be in Class A-1 American Bureau of Shipping or equivalent, with all required certificates, including but not limited to marine inspection certificates of the Coast Guard, Treasury Department, and so far as due diligence can make her so, tight, staunch, strong and well and sufficiently tackled, appareled, furnished and equipped, and in every respect seaworthy and in good running condition and repair, with clean swept holds and in all respects fit for service.

CLAUSE 5. Surveys. (a) Each Vessel shall be jointly surveyed before delivery and before redelivery under this Agreement to determine and state the condition of the Vessel. Such surveys shall include drydocking to determine and state the condition of the underwater parts, unless, at Owner's option, the drydocking in connection with delivery is postponed, in which event the cost and time (including Vessel expenses) of any damage to underwater parts found either upon delivery or during the period of the

Vessel's use under this Agreement shall be for Owner's account unless such damage is established, from the basis of all evidence, to have occurred during the period of the Vessel's use under this Agreement. The cost and time of such delivery survey shall be for account of the Owner, and similarly the cost and time of such redelivery survey shall be for the account of the Charterer. Each party shall bear the cost of surveyors appointed by it in connection with both delivery and redelivery surveys.

(b) Except as to items sighted prior to delivery and noted on the delivery survey report as defective, which shall be for the Owner's account, including cost and time (inclusive of Vessel expenses) the delivery of each Vessel by the Owner and the acceptance thereof by the Charterer shall constitute full performance by the Owner of all the Owner's obligations under this Clause with respect to such Vessel, and thereafter the Charterer shall not be entitled to make or assert any claim against the Owner on account of any agreements, representations or warranties, expressed or implied with respect to the condition of such Vessel; provided, however, that the Owner shall nevertheless be responsible for the cost and time (exclusive of Vessel expenses) of repairs or renewals occasioned by latent defects in such Vessel, her machinery or appurtenances or defects due to locked-in stresses in such Vessel existing at the time of delivery, not recoverable under the terms and conditions of the American Hull form of policy (American Institute Time (Hulls) December, 1955) containing no deductible average clause.

CLAUSE 6. Determination of class. For the purpose of this Agreement a Vessel chartered hereunder shall be deemed to be in class, whether or not any requirements or recommendations of the Classification Society are outstanding at the time of delivery or redelivery, as the case may be, unless the time limit for the accomplishment of any such requirements or recommendations, including any extension or period of grace allowed, shall have expired.

CLAUSE 7. Inventory. A complete inventory of each Vessel's entire outfit, equipment, furniture, furnishings, appliances, spare and replacement parts and of all unbroached consumable stores, subsistence stores, slop chest, containers, and bunker fuel shall be jointly taken and mutualy agreed upon as to items and quantities, at the time of delivery, by representatives of the Charterer and the Owner. The parties may agree, however, to accept any suitable prior inventory which may have been taken before the delivery of the Vessel under this Agreement. Such delivery inventory of consumable and subsistence stores, slop chest, containers, and bunker fuel shall be priced by the Charterer at the current market price prevailing at the port and time of delivery. At redelivery a complete inventory of each Vessel's entire outfit, equipment, furniture, furnishings, appliances and spare and replacement parts

shall, also, be jointly taken and mutually agreed upon as to items and quantities by representatives of the Charterer and the Owner. In addition, a complete inventory of all broached and unbroached consumable stores, subsistence stores, slop chest, containers, and bunker fuel shall be taken by the Charterer immediately prior to redelivery. Such inventory shall be priced by the Charterer at the current market price prevailing at the port and time of performance of Charterer's redelivery obligations, and the Owner shall be furnished with three certified copies of such inventory, together with an affidavit certifying as to its correctness.

CLAUSE 8. Consumable stores and fuel. The Charterer shall accept and pay for any unbroached consumable stores, subsistence stores, slop chest, returnable containers, and bunker fuel furnished by the Owner or on board at the time of delivery at the market prices current at the time and place of repairs and outfitting. The Owner shall have no obligation upon redelivery to accept or pay for consumable stores (either broached or unbroached), subsistence stores, slop chest, or returnable containers, and shall accept and pay for bunker fuel only in such minimum amounts as the Owner may determine. (Bunkers accepted by the Owner shall be paid for at the current market price prevailing at the port and time of redelivery, or, in event of redelivery at a Reserve Fleet site, at the current market price at the port and time of redelivery repairs.) Prior to redelivery, such items shall be removed from the Vessels by the Charterer in accordance with the provisions of NSA Order No. 64, as revised from time to time, and the fair and reasonable cost of such removal shall be charged in the Vessel's voyage accounts for the last voyage prior to redelivery. With respect to the aforesaid items, there shall be taken into account in the determination of additional charter hire, in accordance with Clause 2, Part II, of this Agreement, (a) the current market value thereof at the port and time of redelivery, in the event redelivery is effected at a redelivery port, or, in the event redelivery is effected at a Reserve Fleet site, the current market value at the port and time of redelivery repairs, or (b) the net proceeds from the disposition thereof, in the event the Charterer elects to dispose of the removed goods and notifies the Owner of such intention prior to redelivery. The manner of, time of and determination of net proceeds from such disposition of the items shall be subject to approval of the Owner.

CLAUSE 9. Use of equipment. The Charterer shall have the use of all outfit, equipment, furniture, furnishings, appliances, spare and replacement parts on board the Vessel at the time of delivery under this Agreement without extra cost and the same shall be returned to the Owner upon redelivery in good order and condition. Any such items damaged or so worn in service as to be unfit for use or lost or destroyed shall be replaced or made good by the Charterer
