[1]Average TCE earnings, gross is a non-U.S. GAAP measure of the average daily
revenue performance of a vessel. Average TCE earnings, gross, when used by the
Company, means time charter revenues and voyage charter revenues adding back
address commissions, and divided by fleet operational days. Our management
believes average TCE earnings, gross can provide additional meaningful
information for investors to analyze our fleets' daily income performance. Our
calculation of such figure may not be comparable to that reported by other
companies. Please see Appendix A for reconciliation of this measure to the
nearest U.S. GAAP measure.
