Forward-Looking Statements
Matters discussed in this press release may constitute forward-looking
statements. The Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides safe harbour protections for
forward-looking statements in order to
encourage companies to provide prospective information about their business.
Forward-looking statements
include statements concerning plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future
events or performance, and underlying
assumptions and other statements, which are other than statements of historical
facts. The Company desires to
take advantage of the safe harbour provisions of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and is
including this cautionary statement in connection with this safe harbour
legislation. The words "believe",
"anticipate", "intends", "estimate", "forecast", "project", "plan", "potential",
"may", "should", "expect", "pending" and similar expressions identify
forward-looking statements.

The forward-looking statements in this press release are based upon various
assumptions, many of which are
based, in turn, upon further assumptions, including without limitation, our
management's examination of
historical operating trends, data contained in our records and other data
available from third parties. Although
we believe that these assumptions were reasonable when made, because these
assumptions are inherently
subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies which are difficult or
impossible to predict and are beyond
our control, we cannot assure you that we will achieve or accomplish these
expectations, beliefs or projections.

In addition to these important factors, other important factors that, in our
view, could cause actual results to
differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements include
the failure of counterparties to
fully perform their contracts with us, the strength of world economies and
currencies, general market conditions,
including fluctuations in charter rates and vessel values, changes in demand for
tanker vessel capacity, changes
in our operating expenses, including bunker prices, dry-docking and insurance
costs, the market for our vessels,
availability of financing and refinancing, charter counterparty performance,
ability to obtain financing and comply
with covenants in such financing arrangements, changes in governmental rules and
regulations or actions taken
by regulatory authorities, potential liability from pending or future
litigation, general domestic and international
political conditions, potential disruption of shipping routes due to accidents
or political events, vessels breakdowns
and instances of off-hires and other factors. Please see our filings with the
United States Securities and Exchange
Commission for a more complete discussion of these and other risks and
uncertainties.
