PROPOSAL

The
Company currently has seven Directors. As provided in the Company's bye-laws,
the Board of Directors is submitting for approval at the Meeting a proposal to
expand the Board to nine Directors and to deem any vacancy arising a "casual
vacancy," delegating to the Board the authority to fill such vacancy or
vacancies. The Board of Directors believes Proposal One is in the best interests
of the Company, as it will permit the Board of Directors to add qualified
candidates without the necessity of calling special shareholder meetings. Board
members will still be up for reelection by the shareholders at the next Annual
General Meeting. As set forth below, whether or not Proposal One is approved by
the shareholders, the Board will nominate seven persons at the Meeting for
election as Directors of the Company. If Proposal One is adopted, the vacancies
for the eighth and ninth positions may be filled in the future by the Board of
Directors.
Required Vote. Approval of
Proposal One will require the affirmative vote of the majority of the votes cast
by shareholders entitled to vote thereon.
THE BOARD
OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR APPROVAL OF THE EXPANSION OF THE
MAXIMUM SIZE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS TO NINE MEMBERS AND THE DETERMINATION
THAT ANY VACANCY ARISING BE DEEMED A CASUAL VACANCY, DELEGATING TO THE BOARD THE
AUTHORITY TO FILL SUCH VACANCY OR VACANCIES. UNLESS REVOKED AS PROVIDED ABOVE,
PROXIES RECEIVED BY MANAGEMENT WILL BE VOTED IN FAVOR OF SUCH APPROVAL UNLESS A
CONTRARY VOTE IS SPECIFIED.
PROPOSAL
TWO

is approved at the Meeting, the Board of Directors will nominate the seven
present Directors listed below for re-election as Directors of the
Company.
Set forth
below is information concerning each nominee for Director.
Unless
the proxy is marked to indicate that such authorization is expressly withheld,
the persons named in the enclosed proxy intend to vote the shares authorized
thereby FOR the election of the following seven nominees. It is expected that
each of these nominees will be able to serve, but if before the election it
develops that any of the nominees are unavailable, the persons named in the
accompanying proxy will vote for the election of such substitute nominee or
nominees as the current Board of Directors may recommend.

PROPOSAL
THREE
REDUCTION
OF SHARE PREMIUM
The Board
is submitting for approval at the Meeting the reduction of the Company's paid up
share capital by approximately $107.1 million, which is the amount of share
capital which exceeds the aggregate par value of the outstanding common shares,
par value $0.01 per share, of the Company, which we refer to as share premium.
The reason for the reduction is primarily to increase the ability of the Company
to declare and distribute dividends to the Company's shareholders should the
saleable value of the assets of the Company decline to certain levels. The
reduction in share premium will not result in a distribution to shareholders at
this time but rather the surplus resulting from such reduction will be credited
to the Company's contributed surplus account.
Currently,
the Company's aggregate share capital represented by the Company's outstanding
common shares is $378,937 based on the aggregate par value of the Company's
37,893,679 common shares having a par value of $0.01 each. The share premium of
the Company is currently approximately $107.1 million based on the excess of the
price paid by shareholders for the Company's common shares over their aggregate
par value.
Our
dividend policy is to declare quarterly dividends to shareholders, substantially
equal to our net operating cash flow during the previous quarter after reserves
as the Board of Directors may from time to time determine are required, taking
into account contingent liabilities, the terms of our credit facility, our other
cash needs and the requirements of Bermuda law. However, if we declare a
dividend in respect of a quarter in which an equity issuance has taken place, we
calculate the dividend per share as our net operating cash flow for the quarter
(after taking into account the factors described above) divided by the weighted
average number of shares over that quarter. Net
operating cash flow represents net income plus depreciation and non-cash
administrative charges. The dividend paid is the calculated dividend per share
multiplied by the number of shares outstanding at the end of the
quarter.
Under
Bermuda law, we may not declare or pay dividends if there are reasonable grounds
for believing that (1) we are, or would after the payment be, unable to pay our
liabilities as they become due or (2) the realizable value of our assets would
thereby be less than the sum of our liabilities, our issued share capital (the
total par value of all outstanding shares) and share premium accounts (the
aggregate amount paid for our shares in excess of the aggregate par value of
such shares).
Since our
inception, we have issued shares at various times in excess of such shares' par
value. This excess constitutes our share premium. Share premium is not available
for payment of dividends under Bermuda law. If the saleable value of our assets
were to decline to a certain level, we may not satisfy the second test outlined
above, even if we were solvent and had available net operating cash flow to
distribute.
The
reduction in share premium will give our Board of Directors greater flexibility
to declare dividends to our shareholders. Specifically, the reduction in share
capital will enable the Board of Directors to declare a dividend, when the
Company is solvent, and would not be rendered insolvent upon payment of the
dividend, and has available cash to distribute, so long as the realizable value
of the Company's assets exceeds its liabilities plus $378,937.
The
Company is required, in order to effectuate such reduction to cause a notice to
be published in an appointed newspaper stating the amount of the share capital
as last previously determined by the Company, the amount to which the share
capital is to be reduced, and the date as from which the reduction is to have
effect. The notice is required to be published not more than thirty days and not
less than fifteen days prior to the date on which the reduction is to have
effect and is intended to be published on or about June 30, 2009. The Company
may only effect such reduction if there are reasonable grounds for believing
that the Company is, or after the reduction would be, able to pay its
liabilities as they become due, in relation to which an affidavit shall be
required to be sworn by not less than two directors of the Company on or about
the date on which the reduction is to take effect.
Within 30
days after the date such reduction of the paid up share capital is effective the
Company, as required by Bermuda law, will file a memorandum, with a copy of the
notice and the affidavit referred to above, in the
office of the Bermuda Registrar of Companies ("Registrar") notifying the
Registrar of compliance with the Companies Act.
Required Vote.
Approval of Proposal Three will require the affirmative vote of the majority of
the votes cast by shareholders entitled to vote thereon.
THE BOARD
OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR APPROVAL OF THE REDUCTION OF
SHARE PREMIUM. UNLESS REVOKED AS PROVIDED ABOVE, PROXIES RECEIVED BY MANAGEMENT
WILL BE VOTED IN FAVOR OF SUCH APPROVAL UNLESS A CONTRARY VOTE IS
SPECIFIED.
PROPOSAL
FOUR
APPROVAL
OF APPOINTMENT OF
INDEPENDENT
AUDITORS
The Board
is submitting for approval at the Meeting the appointment of Deloitte AS as the
Company's independent auditors for the fiscal year 2009. The Board will also lay
before the Meeting the Company's audited financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 2008. These financial statements are being distributed to
shareholders as part of the Company's 2008 Annual Report.
Deloitte
AS has advised the Company that the firm does not have any direct or indirect
financial interest in the Company, nor has such firm had any such interest in
connection with the Company during the past three fiscal years other than in its
capacity as the Company's independent auditors.
All
services rendered by the independent auditors are subject to review by the Audit
Committee.
Required Vote. Approval of
Proposal Four will require the affirmative vote of the majority of the votes
cast by shareholders entitled to vote thereon.
THE
BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR APPROVAL OF THE APPOINTMENT
OF DELOITTE AS AS INDEPENDENT AUDITORS OF THE COMPANY FOR THE 2009 FISCAL YEAR.
UNLESS REVOKED AS PROVIDED ABOVE, PROXIES RECEIVED BY MANAGEMENT WILL BE VOTED
IN FAVOR OF SUCH APPROVAL UNLESS A CONTRARY VOTE IS SPECIFIED.
