FINANCING In total, USD 136.85 million of the Term Loan Facility had been drawn for the acquisition of the four vessels in the second quarter. At third quarter end, the Company paid the first principal repayment under the Term Loan Facility of USD 4.1 million. The total amount of outstanding debt under the Term Loan Facility at quarter end was USD 132.7 million. MAIN EVENTS DURING THE QUARTER The freight market for large crude carriers experienced a challenging third quarter. With all vessels conducting special surveys, the Company had hoped to reduce its exposure to the poor market. However, despite waiting for improved market conditions, the poor world scale rates sustained throughout the whole quarter. VESSEL OPERATIONS All vessels have operated without any technical issues throughout the quarter.

Drydocking summary

Saga Chelsea entered drydock in China on 27 July. The vessel was off hire for 25 days in the quarter, and the total cost for the special survey was approximately USD 2.0 million.

Saga Unity entered the drydock in Dubai on 4 August. The vessel was off hire for 13 days in the quarter, and the total cost for the special survey was approximately USD 1.6 million.

Saga Agnes, who is on time charter to Bluelight, entered drydock at Keppel Shipyard on 17 August. The vessel was off hire for 30 days in the quarter, and the total cost for the special survey was approximately USD 1.9 million.

Songa Julie entered the drydock at Keppel Shipyard on 1 September. The vessel was off hire for 7 days in the quarter, and the total cost for the special survey was approximately USD 1.2 million.

MARKET The weak tanker market continued throughout the third quarter. The reasons seem to be a mix of factors

including weak US Oil import. The forward curve for oil has not encouraged any substantial floating storage of crude oil. As for the future, the Company believes the market for VLCC will recover. Large crude tankers will remain the most cost-efficient way to transport oil and the long term positive fundamentals are still intact. STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS Matters discussed in this report may constitute forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements in this report are based upon various assumptions, many of which are based upon further assumptions, including without limitation, 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 to predict and beyond our control, we cannot assure you that we will achieve or accomplish these expectations, beliefs or projections.
