The Guarantor shall indemnify the Lender against any losses or costs incurred by the Lender by reason of any failure of the Guarantor to make any such Governmental Withholdings or other deduction or withholding or by reason of any increased payment not being made on the due date for such payment.

the Lender shall not be obliged to allocate this transaction any part of a tax repayment or credit which is referable to a number of transactions;

nothing in this Clause shall oblige the Lender to make a payment which exceeds any repayment or credit in respect of tax on account of which the Guarantor has made an increased payment under this Clause; and any allocation or determination made by the Lender under or in connection with this Clause shall be binding on the Guarantor.

3.6	Currency indemnity

If any sum due from the Borrower and/or the Guarantor under the Loan Agreement, this Guarantee and any of the other Security Documents or any order or judgement given or made in relation hereto has to be converted from the currency (the “first currency”) in which the same is payable under the Loan Agreement, this Guarantee or any of the other Security Documents respectively or under such order or judgement into another currency (the “second currency”) for the purpose of (i) making or filing a claim or proof against the Borrower, the Guarantor or any other Security Party, as the case may be, (ii) obtaining an order or judgement in any court or other tribunal or (iii) enforcing any order or judgement given or made in relation to any of the other Security Documents, the Borrower, the Guarantor and any other Security Party shall (and it is hereby expressly undertaken by the Guarantor to) indemnify and hold the Lender harmless from and against any loss suffered as a result of any difference between (a) the rate of exchange used for such purpose to convert the sum in question from the first currency into the second currency and (b) the rate or rates of exchange at which the Lender may in the ordinary course of business purchase the first currency with the second currency upon receipt of a sum paid to it in satisfaction, in whole or in part, of any such order, judgement, claim or proof.

12.2	Submission to jurisdiction

For the benefit of the Lender and subject to Clause 12.6 (Right of the Lender, but not Guarantor, to bring proceedings in any other jurisdiction), the Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the jurisdiction of the courts of England and hereby irrevocably agrees, that that the courts of England shall have exclusive jurisdiction:

(i)

to settle any dispute or other matters whatsoever arising under or in connection with or in any way related to this Guarantee or any non-contractual obligations connected with it (including any dispute or other such matter arising in connection with the negotiation, validity, existence or enforceability of this Guarantee or any part thereof, whether the dispute or such other matter arises under the law of England or under the law of some other country, and including claims arising out of tort or delict) (a “Dispute”). The Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the jurisdiction of such courts; and

(ii)

to grant interim remedies, or other provisional or protective relief.

(b)

The Parties agree that the courts of England are the most appropriate and convenient courts to settle

Disputes and accordingly no Party will argue to the contrary and waives any objections to the inconvenience of England as a forum.

12.3	Choice of forum for the exclusive benefit of the Lender

Clause 12.2 (Submission to jurisdiction) is for the exclusive benefit of the Lender only. As a result, the Lender shall not be prevented from taking proceedings relating to a Dispute in any other courts with jurisdiction. To the extent allowed by law, the Lender may take concurrent proceedings in any number of jurisdictions. The Lender reserves the right:

(a)

to commence proceedings in relation to any Dispute in the courts of any country other than England and which have or claim jurisdiction to that Dispute; and

(b)

Atlas Maritime Services Limited at its registered office for the time being at Enterprise House, 113-115 George Lane, E18 1AB, London, England (hereinafter called the “Process Agent for English Proceedings”), to receive for it and on its behalf, service of process issued out of the English courts in relation to any proceedings before the English courts in connection with the Guarantee, provided, however, that:

(a)

the Guarantor hereby agrees and undertakes to maintain a Process Agent for English Proceedings throughout the Security Period and hereby agrees that in the event that if any Process Agent for English Proceedings is unable for any reason to act as agent for service of process, the Guarantor must immediately (and in any event within ten (10) days of such event taking place) appoint another agent on terms acceptable to the Lender. Failing this, the Lender may appoint for this purpose a substitute Process Agent for English Proceedings and the Lender is hereby irrevocably authorised to effect such appointment on Guarantor’s behalf. The appointment of such Process Agent for English Proceedings shall be valid and binding from the date notice of such appointment is given by the Lender to the Guarantor in accordance with Clause 11.1 (Notices); and

(b)

the Guarantor hereby agrees that failure by a Process Agent for English Proceedings to notify the Guarantor of the process will not invalidate the proceedings concerned.

12.5	Forum non conveniens and enforcement abroad

The Guarantor hereby:

(a)

waives any right and agrees not to apply to the English court or any other Court in any jurisdiction whatsoever or to stay or strike out proceedings commenced in England on the ground that England is an inappropriate forum and/or that there is another more appropriate forum and/or that proceedings have been or will be commenced in any other jurisdiction in connection with any dispute or other matter and/or related matter falling within Clause 12.2 (Submission to jurisdiction), and

(b)

agrees that a judgment or order of an English court in a dispute or other matter falling within Clause 12.2 (Submission to jurisdiction) shall be conclusive and binding on the Guarantor and may be enforced against it in the courts of any other jurisdiction.

12.6	Right of Lender, but not Guarantor, to bring proceedings in any other jurisdiction

(a)

Nothing in this Clause 12.6 limits the right of the Lender to bring proceedings, including third party proceedings, against the Guarantor, or to apply for interim remedies, in connection with this Guarantee in any other court and/or concurrently in more than one jurisdiction. The obtaining by the Lender of judgment in one jurisdiction shall not prevent the Lender from bringing or continuing proceedings in any other jurisdiction, whether or not these shall be founded on the same cause of action.

(b)

If the Lender decides that any such proceedings should be commenced in any other country, then the Guarantor hereby waives any objections as to the jurisdiction or any claim as to the inconvenience of the forum and covenants and undertakes to instruct lawyers in that country to accept service of legal process and not to contest the validity of such proceedings as far as the jurisdiction of the Court or courts involved is concerned.

12.7	Process Agent in Greece

Mrs. Alexandra tatagia, an Attorney-at-Law, presently of 61-65 Filonos Street, Piraeus, Greece, is hereby appointed by the Guarantor as agent to accept service (hereinafter “Process Agent for Greek Proceedings”) upon whom any judicial process may be served and any notice, request, demand or other communication under this Guarantee and the Loan Agreement. In the event that the Process Agent for Greek Proceedings (or any substitute process agent notified to the Lender in accordance with the foregoing) cannot be found at the address specified above (or, as the case may be, notified to the Lender), which will be conclusively proved by an affidavit of a process server to the effect that the Process Agent for Greek Proceedings was not found at such address, the authority of the Process Agent for Greek Proceedings as agent to accept service shall be deemed to have ceased and service of documents may be effected in accordance with the procedure provided by the relevant law. In case, however, that such Process Agent is found in any other address, the Lender shall have the right to serve the documents either on the Process Agent at such address or in accordance with the procedure provided by the relevant law.

12.8	Third Party rights

No term of this Guarantee is enforceable under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 by a person who is not a party to this Guarantee.

12.9	Meaning of “proceedings”

In this Clause 12 “proceedings” means proceedings of any kind, including an application for a provisional or protective measure.

IN WITNESS whereof the parties to this Guarantee have caused this Guarantee to be duly executed as a deed on the date first above written.
