EXECUTION VERSION

AGREEMENT REGARDING VESSEL OPPORTUNITIES

This Agreement Regarding Vessel Opportunities (this "Agreement") is made effective as of March 25, 2010 among: (a) Euroseas Ltd., a Marshall Islands company ("Euroseas"); Eurobulk Ltd., a Liberian company ("Eurobulk"); Eurochart S.A., a Liberian corporation ("Eurochart"); Aristides J. Pittas, an individual residing in Greece ("Pittas" and together with Euroseas, Eurobulk and Eurochart, the "Grantors"); and (b) Euromar LLC, a Marshall Islands company (the "Company").

BACKGROUND

The Grantors wish to facilitate a joint venture (the "Joint Venture") to be entered into by and among Euroseas; All Seas Investors I Ltd., a Cayman exempted company ("All Seas I"), All Seas Investors II Ltd., a Cayman exempted company ("All Seas II"), All Seas Investors III LP, a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership ("All Seas III", and collectively with All Seas I and All Seas II, "All Seas" and each individually a "All Seas Member"); and Paros Ltd., a Cayman Islands exempted limited duration company ("Paros").  Pursuant to the Company's limited liability company agreement, as amended from time to time (the "Operating Agreement"), each of Paros, the All Seas Members and Euroseas shall be the initial members of the Company.  In connection with the Joint Venture and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each of the Grantors and the Company desire to set forth their agreement relating to how they will handle certain vessel acquisitions, vessel dispositions and vessel chartering opportunities (other than with respect to transactions Eurochart performs for parties not affiliated with any of the Grantors).  All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings provided therefor in the Operating Agreement.

AGREEMENT

In order to induce Paros and the All Seas Members to enter into the Joint Venture, the Grantors and the Company agree to the following:

1.           Non-Compete.  From the date hereof and until the earlier to occur of (a) the date that neither Euroseas nor any of its Affiliates is a member of the Company or the holder of any Options (as defined in the Operating Agreement) and (b) the expiration of the Commitment Period (in either case, the "Non-Compete Period"), except as set forth in this Agreement, the Grantors and each of their respective Affiliates shall not establish a Similar Joint Venture (as hereinafter defined).  For purposes of this Agreement, a "Similar Joint Venture" means a venture with committed funds of the Grantors and one or more other persons or entities intended to be invested in the same business as the Company and that might be in direct competition with the Company (a "Competing Activity").  Nothing contained herein shall restrict Euroseas from engaging in any securities offerings, mergers, acquisitions or similar transactions that are not Similar Ventures or otherwise pursuing identified opportunities that have been rejected by the Company; provided, that, (y) in no event shall the Grantors enter into any arrangement with any private investment funds, including private equity funds or "hedge" funds, during the Commitment Period without the prior written consent of the All Seas Members and Paros, and (z) if the Grantors acquire, directly or indirectly, six (6) or more Vessels that have been offered to and rejected by the Company during the Commitment Period (each, a "Rejected Vessel"), then either of All Seas and Paros may, for a period of sixty (60) days following the Grantors' execution of a memorandum of understanding with respect to such sixth (6th) Rejected Vessel, and then again for a period of thirty (30) days following each of the Grantors' subsequent Rejected Vessel acquisitions, either (i) accelerate all, but not less than all, of its respective Conversion Right in accordance with Section 8.5 of the Operating Agreement, or (ii) upon the vote, written consent or approval of a Qualified Majority of the Board of Managers, cause a dissolution of the Company in accordance with Section 10.1 of the Operating Agreement, and in connection with such dissolution, terminate the Management Agreement.  After the expiration of the Non-Compete Period, the Grantors may engage in any Competing Activity and shall give the other Members written notice of such Competing Activity within fifteen (15) business days after the consummation of such transaction.

 
 

 
 
2.           ARVO Committee.

(a)           Promptly after the effective date of this Agreement, the Board of Managers of the Company shall form a committee (the "ARVO Committee") of the Board of Managers consisting of one Manager nominated by each of Euroseas, Paros and All Seas.  The unanimous affirmative vote or written consent of the ARVO Committee members then serving as members of the ARVO Committee shall be necessary for any, and shall constitute an ARVO Committee resolution.  All resolutions of the ARVO Committee in its capacity as representatives of Euroseas, Paros and All Seas shall be final and binding on all parties hereto.  The ARVO Committee shall meet during each quarterly meeting of the Company, and at such other times as are necessary to fulfill its duties hereunder.  Meetings of the ARVO Committee may be conducted in person, telephonically or through the use of other communications equipment that allows all individuals participating in the meeting to communicate with each other.

(b)           At each quarterly meeting of the Company, the ARVO Committee shall meet to discuss any potential conflicts between the Company and the Grantors arising from Opportunities (as defined in Section 6 below).  Each member of the ARVO Committee shall act in good faith to resolve all conflicts among the parties hereto regarding Opportunities.

3.           Vessel Acquisitions.

(a)           Each of the Grantors hereby agrees that, from the date hereof and until the expiration of the Commitment Period, it will notify the Company prior to any acquisition or proposed acquisition (including a conditional sales agreement or similar transaction, a "Proposed Acquisition") by it, or any of its Affiliates, of any drybulk carrier or container ship (including an entity owning such drybulk carrier or container ship, a "Vessel") by delivering a written notice (an "Acquisition Notice") to the Company, advising the Company of the details of the Proposed Acquisition of a Vessel, including its terms, and offering to permit the Company to acquire the Vessel.  For purposes of this Agreement, an "Affiliate" means, with respect to (i) each of the Grantors, any entity for which the Grantor has the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of such entity, whether by ownership of equity securities, contract or otherwise, or (ii) a Grantor that is a natural person, a member of such Grantor's immediate family, which shall include such Grantor's spouse, children or a trust, corporation, partnership or limited liability company, all of the beneficial interests of which are held by such Grantor or one or more members of such Grantor's immediate family.

(b)           Within seven (7) business days after receipt of an Acquisition Notice, the Company will have the right, but not the obligation, to deliver to the applicable Grantor a written notice (an "Acquisition Response Notice") that states whether the Company wishes to pursue the opportunity to purchase the Vessel described in the Acquisition Notice upon the terms stated therein subject to the negotiation and execution of a memorandum of agreement.  If the Company wishes to pursue the opportunity to purchase the Vessel, the Company will have thirty (30) days after delivery of its Acquisition Response Notice to execute a memorandum of agreement to complete the Proposed Acquisition.  If the seller of the Vessel does not provide reasonable cooperation to the Company, such that the Proposed Acquisition cannot be consummated by the Company, the Grantor that delivered such Acquisition Notice shall, upon the request of the Company and provided the seller is willing to sell such Vessel to the Grantor, purchase the Vessel and re-sell the Vessel to the Company on substantially the same terms applicable to the purchase by the Grantor, plus any actual out-of-pocket costs to the Grantor of the Vessel's acquisition from the seller and delivery to the Company plus any actual out-of-pocket costs of the Grantor or its Affiliates carrying the Vessel since its acquisition until its delivery to the Company.  If the Company delivers a response declining to exercise its right to pursue such opportunity to purchase or fails to deliver an Acquisition Response Notice, either within the aforementioned seven (7) business days, then the Company will be deemed to have declined to purchase the Vessel and the applicable Grantor or any of its Affiliates will have the right to purchase, own and operate the same; provided, that such purchase must be on terms not more favorable, in any material respect, to the applicable Grantor or any of its Affiliates, than the terms set forth in the Acquisition Notice and such memorandum of agreement must be completed within thirty (30) days of the delivery of the Acquisition Notice; provided further, that if, following the Company's rejection of such Proposed Acquisition or the Company's failure to deliver an Acquisition Response Notice within the aforementioned seven (7) business days, the terms of such Proposed Acquisition are made more favorable, in any material respect, to the applicable Grantor or any of its Affiliates, than the terms set forth in the Acquisition Notice, such Grantor or its applicable Affiliate shall deliver a new Acquisition Notice to the Company pursuant to Section 3(a).  In addition, if the Company timely delivers an Acquisition Response Notice stating its intent to pursue such opportunity to purchase the Vessel but does not thereafter enter into a memorandum of agreement to acquire the Vessel within such thirty (30)-day period, then the applicable Grantor or any of its Affiliates will have the right to purchase, own and operate the same; provided, that such purchase must be on terms not more favorable, in any material respect, to the applicable Grantor or any of its Affiliates, than the terms set forth in the Acquisition Notice and such purchase must be completed within sixty (60) days of the delivery of the Acquisition Notice.  The Company will have the right to designate any other entity to acquire the Vessel so long as such entity is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.  The Company will have no right to assign its rights hereunder except as provided in this Section 3.

4.           Vessel Dispositions.

(a)           In the event any Grantor or its Affiliates wishes to dispose of a Similar Vessel (as hereinafter defined) to that of the Company, such Grantor or its Affiliate that wishes to sell will provide prior written notice to the Company, advising the Company of the details of the proposed vessel disposition (including the disposition of any entity owning such vessel or by way of a conditional sales agreement or similar agreement).  As used in this Agreement, "Similar Vessel" shall mean (i) any drybulk vessel which can be reasonably determined in good faith to be substantially similar to a drybulk vessel owned by the other party or any of such party's subsidiaries, provided that no drybulk vessel shall be deemed to be substantially similar to another drybulk vessel if such vessels differ (A) in age by more than five (5) years, or (B) in dwt by more than 20%, or (C) in whether the vessel is geared or not geared, and (ii) any container ship which can be reasonably determined in good faith to be substantially similar to a container ship owned by the other party or any of such party's subsidiaries, provided that no container ship shall be deemed to be substantially similar to another container ship if such vessels differ (A) in age by more than five (5) years, or (B) in nominal TEU (twenty foot equivalent unit) by more than 20%, or (C) in whether the vessel is geared or not geared.

(b)           In the event any of (i) Grantor or its Affiliates or (ii) the Company receives an inquiry from a third-party regarding such third-party's potential purchase of a Similar Vessel, the party that receives such inquiry (the "Disposing Party") will provide written notice (a "Disposition Notice") to the other parties, advising such other parties of the details of the proposed vessel disposition (including the disposition of any entity owning such vessel or by way of a conditional sales agreement or similar agreement, a "Vessel Disposition Opportunity").  Upon receipt of a Disposition Notice, the receiving party shall have the right, but not the obligation, to deliver to the Disposing Party within seven (7) business days after receipt of such Disposition Notice a written notice that states that such party wishes to pursue the Vessel Disposition Opportunity described in the Disposition Notice, with a copy of such notice to the other party.  In such circumstances, the parties shall alternate who shall have the right to pursue Vessel Disposition Opportunities, it being agreed that the Company shall have the right to pursue the first such Vessel Disposition Opportunity, with the Grantors having the right to pursue the second Vessel Disposition Opportunity, etc.

5.           Chartering Opportunities.

(a)           In the event there is a chartering opportunity for Similar Vessels of the Grantors or their Affiliates and the Company (including Similar Vessels leased, chartered in or controlled by the Grantors or the Company), such chartering opportunity (hereinafter a "Chartering Opportunity") shall be subject to the terms of this Section 5.  In the event that the ARVO Committee is unable to adopt a resolution regarding either (i) which Similar Vessels are in conflict with respect to Chartering Opportunities or (ii) the method by which such determination shall be made, the parties hereto agree that such dispute shall be submitted to an arbitrator for resolution.  The Board of Managers of the Company shall unanimously approve the appointment of the arbitrator.  The determination of the arbitrator shall be final and binding on all parties hereto.
 
 
4

 
 
(b)           In the event that a Chartering Opportunity arises, the party to whom the Chartering Opportunity has been made available shall provide written notice of the details of such Chartering Opportunity (each, a "Chartering Opportunity Notice") to each of the members of the ARVO Committee and all other parties hereto.

(c)           Except where the ARVO Committee has resolved otherwise, the right to pursue a Chartering Opportunity shall be granted to the parties hereto in accordance with the following:

(i)           From the date hereof and until the expiration of the Commitment Period, in the event that the Chartering Opportunity is being considered in connection with a prospective Vessel acquisition by the Company or a Grantor, such party shall have the right to pursue the Chartering Opportunity; and

(ii)           In all other circumstances, the parties shall alternate who shall have the right to pursue such Chartering Opportunity, it being agreed that the Company shall have the right to pursue the first such Chartering Opportunity, with the Grantors having the right to pursue the second Chartering Opportunity, etc.

(d)           Each of the Grantors shall, upon the written request of either Paros or the All Seas Members, provide each member of the ARVO Committee with written notice of the details of all charter agreements entered into by such Grantor with a vessel under the ownership or management of any of the Grantors (whether a Chartering Opportunity or otherwise) during the prior fiscal quarter (each such written notice, a "Grantor Charter Notice").

(e)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the provisions of this Section 5 shall only be applicable if the potential charterer with respect to a Chartering Opportunity believes there are Similar Vessels and is indifferent about which Similar Vessel to charter.  If, however, such potential charterer prefers a specific vessel (despite there being other Similar Vessels available), then the owner of the preferred vessel shall have the right to charter such vessel and the provisions of this Section 5 shall be inapplicable with respect to such Chartering Opportunity.

 
5

 
 
(f)           If (i) any of the Grantors or their Affiliates enters into a chartering agreement in violation of Section 5(c) (each such chartering agreement, a "Breaching Agreement") and (ii) any Similar Vessel of the other party is either (A) unemployed or (B) employed on terms less favorable than those provided for in the Breaching Agreement, at any time during the term of such Breaching Agreement, then such party shall indemnify the other party for the lost profits resulting from each day such Similar Vessel remains unemployed during the term of such Breaching Agreement and/or, in the case of a Similar Vessel that is employed on terms less favorable than those provided for in the Breaching Agreement, the difference between the charter rates set forth in the Breaching Agreement and those set forth in such Similar Vessel's then current charter agreement.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 5(f) shall be the sole monetary remedy available against a party that violates this Section 5 and enters into a Breaching Agreement.

6.           Manager Voting Requirement.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (i) none of the Grantors shall (nor shall they permit their Affiliates to) consummate or enter into any definitive agreement to consummate any Proposed Acquisition, Vessel Disposition Opportunity or Chartering Opportunity (each, an "Opportunity" and collectively, the "Opportunities") if (A) the Company elected not to pursue such Opportunity and (B) the Managers designated by Euroseas present at the relevant meeting of the Board of Managers either abstained from voting or voted not to pursue such Opportunity, (ii) Paros shall not (and shall not permit its Affiliates to) consummate or enter into any definitive agreement to consummate any Opportunity if (A) the Company elected not to pursue such Opportunity and (B) the Managers designated by Paros present at the relevant meeting of the Board of Managers either abstained from voting or voted not to pursue such Opportunity, and (iii) none of the All Seas Members shall (nor shall they permit their Affiliates to) consummate or enter into any definitive agreement to consummate any Opportunity if (A) the Company elected not to pursue such Opportunity and (B) the Managers designated by the All Seas Members present at the relevant meeting of the Board of Managers either abstained from voting or voted not to pursue such Opportunity.

7.           Pittas Investments.  Pittas has disclosed to the Company all of his investments in any Person that is engaged in the business of owning shipping vessels (a "Shipping Person") in which he owns greater than five percent (5%) of the securities of such Shipping Person.  Pittas hereby agrees that so long as Euroseas or any of its Affiliates is a member of the Company or any Grantor or its Affiliates has a contract with the Company, Pittas shall orally disclose to the Board of Managers any new investments in any Shipping Person prior to committing to or consummating such investment if, in the event that after making any such investment Pittas would own greater than five percent (5%) of the securities of such Shipping Person.  All information provided to Company pursuant to this Section 7 shall be kept confidential by the Company and shall not be divulged, in whole or in part, to any third party, except as required by applicable law.

8.           Remedies.  If any party fails to perform its obligations under this Agreement, the non-breaching parties shall have any and all rights and remedies in contract law or equity under applicable law.  The parties acknowledge that irreparable damage may occur to the other parties in the event that any provisions of this Agreement were not performed by such other parties or their Affiliates in accordance with the specific terms hereof and that such parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically performance of the terms hereof in addition to any other remedies at law or in equity.  Each party hereto agrees not to question or otherwise challenge the assertion or enforceability of this remedy, in and of itself, as described in this Section 8 by the another party.  In any action or proceeding brought to enforce any provision of this Agreement or any other document or instrument contemplated hereby, or where any provision thereof is validly asserted as a defense, the successful party shall be entitled to recover from the unsuccessful party or parties reasonable attorneys' fees, charges and disbursements in addition to any other available remedy.

9.           No Conflicts.

(b)           Each of the Grantors hereby agrees that it shall not enter into any agreement or arrangement of any kind with any Person inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement or for the purpose or with the effect of denying or reducing the rights of the Company, Paros or the All Seas Members under this Agreement.
