Most products tankers can switch between clean and dirty products when the tanks are carefully cleaned. Gasoil is a good clean up cargo when switching from dirty to clean products.
More sophisticated product tankers work at this end of the market, some with the ability to carry products and certain chemicals.
Crude tankers carry only crude oil and fuel oils (except possibly maiden voyage).
Non-oil substances now covered by revised IBC Code. To carry chemicals, an IMO Certificate of Fitness is required.

DECLINING MR2 ORDER BOOK
• Total MR2 vessel orderbook has fallen from ~48% high in 2007 of the then existing fleet to 7.1% (118MR2 vessels)of the worldwide fleet
• Low ordering – 43 MR2’s in LTM ended Feb. 2019 (2.6% of global fleet)• Limited capacity additions scheduled beyond 2019 of 44 MR2’s due to continued limited availability
of cost-effective capital
• Worldwide MR2 fleet is expected to grow at an average of less than 3.5% (gross) per annum in 2019and 2020, without giving effect to scrapping of older vessels and slippage of deliveries
• Slippage of 17.9% in 2018 for new build MR2 deliveries

• Average age of MR2 fleet is 10.2 years• 93 MR2 vessels (5.6%) are 20 years old or more
• 21 MR2 (1.3%) scrapped in 2018• Sizeable portion of the fleet is approaching end of its useful life - future supply will affect

► Environmental regulations should lead to increased scrapping• Force owners to either scrap earlier or make significant vessel capital
expenditures to remain operationally competitive• 122 MR2 (7.3% of world fleet) are 19 year old +
► Ballast Water Treatment System (“BWTS”)• Ballast sea water is used to stabilize vessels and ensure structural integrity;
pumped before/after cargo is loaded/unloaded• Starting September 2019 at vessel’s next special survey, owners will have to
install approved BWTS, which removes inactive organisms from ballast waterprior to discharge
• Retrofits in older tankers can be challenging and costly• Depending on vessel, fully loaded installation costs expected to be between
$0.5 million to $0.6 million for a standard MR tanker
► New stricter regulations on sulfur emissions starting January 2020• Limits reduced from 3.5% to 0.5%• MR2 owners either i) install expensive scrubber ($1.5-2.0 million cost vs. ~$4.0
million vessel scrap value) to burn current grade of fuel, or ii) pay sizeablepremium (currently up to $220 per ton or $6,600 per day) to burn marine gas oil(MGO) or LSFO and run vessel at slower speed

NON-GAAP DEFINITIONSEXHIBIT I

EXHIBIT I | NON-GAAP DEFINITIONS
Daily time charter equivalent (“TCE”) is a shipping industry performance measure of the average daily revenue performance of avessel on a per voyage basis. TCE is not calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We utilize TCE because we believe it is ameaningful measure to compare period-to-period changes in our performance despite changes in the mix of charter types (i.e.,spot charters, time charters and bareboat charters) under which our vessels may be employed between the periods. Ourmanagement also utilizes TCE to assist them in making decisions regarding employment of the vessels. We calculate TCE by dividingvoyage revenues after deducting voyage related costs and commissions by operating days for the relevant period. Voyagerelated costs and commissions primarily consist of brokerage commissions, port, canal and fuel costs that are unique to a particularvoyage, which would otherwise be paid by the charterer under a time charter contract.
Vessel operating expenses (“Opex”) per day are our vessel operating expenses for a vessel, which primarily consist of crew wagesand related costs, insurance, lube oils, communications, spares and consumables, tonnage taxes as well as repairs andmaintenance, divided by the ownership days in the applicable period.
We define total daily operational costs as vessel Opex, technical and commercial management fees plus allocable general andadministrative expenses, applied on a daily basis, typically in comparison of our eco-efficient and eco-modified MR’s. These costscan vary by fleet composition, vessel delivery, operating structure and management organization.
