On October 10, 2014, we entered into definitive agreements to acquire from Mid Ocean Tanker Company, LLC, the M/T American Phoenix and two related charters for approximately $157 million. The M/T American Phoenix is a modern double-hulled, Jones Act qualified tanker with 330,000 barrels of cargo capacity, which was completed in 2012. It is under charter to large energy companies into 2020.
