(3)   COMMERZBANK AKTIENGESELLSCHAFT of Ness 7-9, 20457 Hamburg, Federal Republic of Germany as German State of Lower Saxony agent (the “Lower Saxony Guarantee Agent”).
WHEREAS:
(A)   By a secured loan facility agreement dated 7 October 2005 (the “Original Facility Agreement”) made between (among others) (1) the Borrower as borrower (2) the banks whose names and Lending Branches appear in schedule 1 to the Facility Agreement as lenders (the “Lenders”) (3) the Agent as agent and (4) the Lower Saxony Guarantee Agent as agent, the Lenders agreed to make available to the Borrower a revolving loan facility of up to six hundred and twenty four million euro (EUR624,000,000) or the equivalent in Dollars (the “Facility”) in two (2) tranches. The repayment of the Facility by the Borrower will be secured by (among other things) first priority statutory Bahamian ship mortgages to be granted by the Owners respectively over the Vessels (the “Mortgages”).
 
(B)   The Borrower has requested the consent of the Lenders and the Agent to the amendment of certain provisions of the Original Facility Agreement and of the agreed form of the deed of covenants which will constitute part of each of the Mortgages (the “Deed of Covenants”), which form is attached to the security letter dated 7 October 2005 between the Borrower and the Agent (the “Security Letter”), to conform such provisions to similar provisions in other loan documentation to which the Borrower and/or other members of the NCLC Group are party. This Deed shall be executed as a deed.
