1       Basis of Presentation and General Information

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited) have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The reporting and functional currency of the Company is the United States Dollar.

Danaos Corporation (“Danaos”), formerly Danaos Holdings Limited, was formed on December 7, 1998 under the laws of Liberia and is presently the sole owner of all outstanding shares of the companies listed below. Danaos Holdings Limited was redomiciled in the Marshall Islands on October 7, 2005. In connection with the redomiciliation, the Company changed its name to Danaos Corporation. On October 14, 2005, the Company filed and the Marshall Islands accepted Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation. The authorized capital stock of Danaos Corporation is 750,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.01 and 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.01. Refer to Note 13, Stockholders’ Equity.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited) of Danaos and subsidiaries contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly, in all material respects, the Company’s consolidated financial position as of June 30, 2012, the consolidated results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 and the consolidated cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. All such adjustments are deemed to be of a normal, recurring nature. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Danaos’ Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2011. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The Company’s principal business is the acquisition and operation of vessels. Danaos conducts its operations through the vessel owning companies whose principal activity is the ownership and operation of containerships that are under the exclusive management of a related party of the Company.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited) represent the consolidation of the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Company. They are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases. Inter-company transaction balances and unrealized gains on transactions between the companies are eliminated.

The Company also consolidates entities that are determined to be variable interest entities as defined in the authoritative guidance under U.S. GAAP. A variable interest entity is defined as a legal entity where either (a) equity interest holders as a group lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest, including decision making ability and an interest in the entity’s residual risks and rewards, or (b) the equity holders have not provided sufficient equity investment to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, or (c) the voting rights of some investors are not proportional to their obligations to absorb the expected losses of the entity, their rights to receive the expected residual returns of the entity, or both and substantially all of the entity’s activities either involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor that has disproportionately few voting rights.

The condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited) have been prepared to reflect the consolidation of the companies listed below. The historical balance sheets and results of operations of the companies listed below have been reflected in the consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of income, cash flows and stockholders’ equity at and for each period since their respective incorporation dates.

The consolidated companies are referred to as “Danaos,” or “the Company.”

As of June 30, 2012, Danaos included the vessel owning (including vessels under contract and/or construction) companies (the “Danaos Subsidiaries”) listed below. All vessels are container vessels:

(1)         Vessel subject to charterer’s option to purchase vessel after first eight years of time charter term for $78.0 million

2                 Significant Accounting Policies

All accounting policies are as described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2011 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 2012.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Fair Value

In May 2011, the FASB issued new guidance for fair value measurements intended to achieve common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. The amended guidance provides a consistent definition of fair value to ensure that the fair value measurement and disclosure requirements are similar between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. The amended guidance changes certain fair value measurement principles and enhances the disclosure requirements, particularly for Level 3 fair value measurements. The amended guidance was effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2012. The adoption of the new guidance for fair value measurements had no effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

3       Restricted Cash

Restricted cash is comprised of the following (in thousands):

The Company was required to maintain cash of $2.8 million and $2.9 million as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, in a retention bank account as collateral for the upcoming scheduled debt payments of its KEXIM and KEXIM-ABN Amro credit facilities, which were recorded under current assets in the Company’s Balance Sheets.

Furthermore, as of June 30, 2012, the Company recorded non-current restricted cash of $0.4 million in relation to one of its swap’s following the sale of the Montreal, which based on its Bank Agreement, any sale proceeds should be applied towards the repayment of the respective loan outstanding as well as cash collateral of the outstanding swaps with the respective bank (prorated based on market values).

4       Fixed assets, net

Fixed assets consist of vessels. Vessels’ cost, accumulated depreciation and changes thereto were as follows (in thousands):

i.                             On February 16, 2012, the Company took delivery of the newbuilding 13,100 TEU vessel, the Hyundai Together, for a contract price of $168.5 million. The vessel has been deployed on a 12-year time charter with one of the world’s major liner companies.

ii.                          On February 28, 2012, the Company took delivery of the newbuilding 8,530 TEU vessel, the CMA CGM Melisande, for a contract price of $117.5 million. The vessel has been deployed on a 12-year time charter with one of the world’s major liner companies.

iii.                       On March 8, 2012, the Company took delivery of the newbuilding 13,100 TEU vessel, the Hyundai Tenacity, for a contract price of $168.5 million. The vessel has been deployed on a 12-year time charter with one of the world’s major liner companies.

iv.                      On May 3, 2012, the Company took delivery of the newbuilding 13,100 TEU vessel, the Hyundai Smart, for a contract price of $168.5 million. The vessel has been deployed on a 12-year time charter with one of the world’s major liner companies.

v.                         On June 7, 2012, the Company took delivery of the newbuilding 13,100 TEU vessel, the Hyundai Speed, for a contract price of $168.5 million. The vessel has been deployed on a 12-year time charter with one of the world’s major liner companies.

vi.                      On June 29, 2012, the Company took delivery of the newbuilding 13,100 TEU vessel, the Hyundai Ambition, for a contract price of $168.5 million. The vessel has been deployed on a 12-year time charter with one of the world’s major liner companies.

vii.                               On April 27, 2012, the Company sold and delivered the Montreal (ex Hanjin Montreal). The net sale consideration was $5.6 million and the Company recognized a gain on sale of $0.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012. Refer to Note 15, Sale of Vessel.

The residual value (estimated scrap value at the end of the vessels’ useful lives) of the fleet was estimated at $432.2 million as of June 30, 2012 and $361.5 million as of December 31, 2011. The Company has calculated the residual value of the vessels taking into consideration the 10 year average and the 5 year average of the scrap. The Company has applied uniformly the scrap value of $300 per ton for all vessels. The Company believes that $300 per ton is a reasonable estimate of future scrap prices, taking into consideration the cyclicality of the nature of future demand for scrap steel. Although the Company believes that the assumptions used to determine the scrap rate are reasonable and appropriate, such assumptions are highly subjective, in part, because of the cyclical nature of future demand for scrap steel.

The contract price of each newbuilding vessel, as discussed above, excludes any items capitalized during the construction period, such as interest expense and other predelivery expenses, which increase the total cost of each vessel recorded upon delivery under “Fixed Assets, net” in the condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

5       Advances for Vessels under Construction

a)                                     Advances for vessels under construction were as follows (in thousands):

As of June 30, 2012, the Company completed its extensive newbuilding program and has taken delivery of all of its vessels under construction.

b)                                     Advances for vessels under construction and transfers to vessels’ cost as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, were as follows (in thousands):

6       Deferred Charges, net

Deferred charges, net consisted of the following (in thousands):

The Company follows the deferral method of accounting for drydocking and special survey costs in accordance with accounting for planned major maintenance activities, whereby actual costs incurred are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the period until the next scheduled survey, which is two and a half years.  If special survey or drydocking is performed prior to the scheduled date, the remaining unamortized balances are immediately written off. Furthermore, when a vessel is drydocked for more than one reporting period, the respective costs are identified and recorded in the period in which they were incurred and not at the conclusion of the drydocking.

7       Other Non-current Assets

Other non-current assets consisted of the following (in thousands):

On October 30, 2009, the Company agreed with one of its charterers, Zim Integrated Shipping Services Ltd. (“ZIM”), to revisions to charterparties for six of its vessels in operation, which keep the original charter terms in place, reducing the cash settlement of each charter hire by 17.5% which becomes a subsequent payment. Each subsequent payment, which accumulates in any financial quarter, is satisfied by callable exchange notes (the “CENs”). CENs will be issued by ZIM once per financial quarter at a face value equal to the aggregate amount of such subsequent payments from that financial quarter plus a premium amount (being an amount calculated as if each such subsequent payment had accrued interest at the rate of 6% per annum from the date when it would have been due under the original charter party until the relevant issue date for the CENs). Unless previously converted at the holder’s option into ZIM’s common stock (only upon ZIM becoming a publicly listed company) or redeemed partially prior to or in full in cash, on July 1, 2016, ZIM will redeem the CENs at their remaining nominal amount together with the 6% interest accrued up to that date in cash only. In this respect, the Company recorded a note receivable from ZIM in “Other non-current assets” of $28.6 million and $23.5 million as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

In respect of the fair value of swaps, refer to Note 11b, Financial Instruments — Fair Value Interest Rate Swap Hedges.

8       Accrued Liabilities

Accrued liabilities consisted of the following (in thousands):

Accrued expenses mainly consisted of accrued realized losses on cash flow interest rate swaps of $18.2 million and $18.5 million as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, as well as other accruals related to the operation of the Company’s fleet of $7.1 million and $6.0 million as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

9       Other Current and Long-term Liabilities

Other current liabilities consisted of the following (in thousands):

Other long-term liabilities consisted of the following (in thousands):

Other long-term liabilities mainly consist of $4.8 million and $4.7 million as June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, in relation to a deferred fee accrued pursuant to the Bank Agreement (refer to Note 10, Long-Term Debt), which will be cash settled on December 31, 2014 and is recorded at amortized cost.

In respect of the fair value of swaps, refer to Note 11a, Financial Instruments — Cash Flow Interest Rate Swap Hedges.

10     Long-Term Debt

Long-term debt consisted of the following (in thousands):

All floating rate loans discussed above are collateralized by first and second preferred mortgages over the vessels financed, general assignment of all hire freights, income and earnings, the assignment of their insurance policies, as well as any proceeds from the sale of mortgaged vessels and the corporate guarantee of Danaos Corporation.

Maturities of long-term debt for the next five years and thereafter subsequent to June 30, 2012, are as follows (in thousands):

* The last payment due on December 31, 2018, includes the unamortized remaining principal debt balances, as such amount will be determinable following the fixed and variable amortization.

The maturities of long-term debt for the twelve month periods subsequent to June 30, 2012 are based on the terms of the Bank Agreement, under which the Company is not required to repay any outstanding principal amounts under its existing credit facilities, other than the KEXIM and KEXIM-ABN Amro credit facilities which are not covered by the Bank Agreement, until after May 15, 2013; thereafter until December 31, 2018 it will be required to make quarterly principal payments in fixed amounts. In addition, the Company is required to make an additional payment in such amount that, together with the fixed principal payment, equals a certain percentage of its Actual Free Cash Flow for such quarter (as defined below). The table above includes both the fixed payments for which the Company has a contractual obligation, as well as the Company’s estimate of the future Actual Free Cash Flows and resulting variable amortization. The last payment due on December 31, 2018, will also include the unamortized remaining principal debt balances, as such amount will be determinable following the fixed and variable amortization.

Maturities of Hyundai Samho vendor financing for the next periods subsequent to June 30, 2012, are as follows (in thousands):

As of February 9, 2012, the Company signed a supplemental letter extending the terms of the August 12, 2010 supplemental letter through June 30, 2014, which amended the interest rate margin and the financial covenants of its KEXIM-ABN Amro credit facility. More specifically, the financial covenants were aligned with those set forth in the Bank Agreement (see below), effective from June 30, 2010 through June 30, 2012, and the interest rate margin was increased by 0.5 percentage points for the same period.

Bank Agreement

On January 24, 2011, the Company entered into a definitive agreement, which became effective on March 4, 2011, referred to as the Bank Agreement, that superseded, amended and supplemented the terms of each of the Company’s then-existing credit facilities (other than its credit facilities with KEXIM and KEXIM-ABN Amro which are not covered thereby), and provided for, among other things, revised amortization schedules, maturities, interest rates, financial covenants, events of defaults, guarantee and security packages and approximately $425 million of new debt financing. Subject to the terms of the Bank Agreement and the intercreditor agreement (the “Intercreditor Agreement”), which the Company entered into with each of the lenders participating under the Bank Agreement to govern the relationships between the lenders thereunder, under the New Credit Facilities (as described and defined below) and under the Hyundai Samho Vendor Financing described below, the lenders participating thereunder continue to provide the Company’s then-existing credit facilities and amended the covenants under the existing credit facilities in accordance with the terms of the Bank Agreement.

Under the terms of the Bank Agreement, borrowings under each of the Company’s existing credit facilities, other than the KEXIM and KEXIM-ABN Amro credit facilities which are not covered by the Bank Agreement, bear interest at an annual interest rate of LIBOR plus a margin of 1.85%.

The Company is required to pay an amendment fee of $5.0 million on December 31, 2014. This amendment fee was accrued under the “Other long-term liabilities” in the consolidated balance sheet and is deferred and amortized over the life of the respective credit facilities with the effective interest method. In addition, the Company is required to pay a fee of $10.0 million if it does not repay at least $150.0 million in the aggregate under the New Credit Facilities with equity proceeds by December 31, 2013.

Principal Payments

Under the terms of the Bank Agreement, the Company is not required to repay any outstanding principal amounts under its existing credit facilities, other than the KEXIM and KEXIM-ABN Amro credit facilities which are not covered by the Bank Agreement, until after March 31, 2013; thereafter, the Company will be required to make quarterly principal payments in fixed amounts, in relation to the Company’s total debt commitments from the Company’s lenders under the Bank Agreement and New Credit Facilities, as specified in the table below:

*            The Company may elect to make the scheduled payments shown in the above table three months earlier.

Furthermore, an additional variable payment in such amount that, together with the fixed principal payment (as disclosed above), equals 92.5% of Actual Free Cash Flow for such quarter until the earlier of (x) the date on which the Company’s consolidated net leverage is below 6:1 and (y) May 15, 2015; and thereafter through maturity, which will be December 31, 2018 for each covered credit facility, it will be required to make fixed quarterly principal payments in fixed amounts as specified in the Bank Agreement and described above plus an additional payment in such amount that, together with the fixed principal payment, equals 89.5% of Actual Free Cash Flow for such quarter. In addition, any additional amounts of cash and cash equivalents, but during the final principal payment period described above only such additional amounts in excess of the greater of (1) $50 million of accumulated unrestricted cash and cash equivalents and (2) 2% of the Company’s consolidated debt, would be applied first to the prepayment of the New Credit Facilities and after the New Credit Facilities are repaid, to the existing credit facilities. The last payment due on December 31, 2018, will also include the unamortized remaining principal debt balances, as such amount will be determinable following the fixed and variable amortization.

Under the Bank Agreement, “Actual Free Cash Flow” with respect to each credit facility covered thereby is equal to revenue from the vessels collateralizing such facility, less the sum of (a) interest expense under such credit facility, (b) pro-rata portion of payments under its interest rate swap arrangements, (c) interest expense and scheduled amortization under the Hyundai Samho Vendor Financing and (d) per vessel operating expenses and pro rata per vessel allocation of general and administrative expenses (which are not permitted to exceed the relevant budget by more than 20%), plus (e) the pro-rata share of operating cash flow of any Applicable Second Lien Vessel (which means, with respect to an existing facility, a vessel with respect to which the participating lenders under such facility have a second lien security interest and the first lien credit facility has been repaid in full).

Under the terms of the Bank Agreement, the Company continues to be required to make any mandatory prepayments provided for under the terms of its existing credit facilities and is required to make additional prepayments as follows

·                                          50% of the first $300 million of net equity proceeds (including convertible debt and hybrid instruments), excluding the $200 million of net equity proceeds which was a condition to the Bank Agreement and were received in August 2010 for which there are no specified required uses, after entering into the Bank Agreement and 25% of any additional net equity proceeds thereafter until December 31, 2018; and

·                                          any debt proceeds (after repayment of any underlying secured debt covered by vessels collateralizing the new borrowings) (excluding the New Credit Facilities, the Sinosure-CEXIM Credit Facility and the Hyundai Samho Vendor Financing),

which amounts would first be applied to repayment of amounts outstanding under the New Credit Facilities and then to the existing credit facilities. Any equity proceeds retained by the Company and not used within 12 months for certain specified purposes would be applied for prepayment of the New Credit Facilities and then to the existing credit facilities. The Company would also be required to prepay the portion of a credit facility attributable to a particular vessel upon the sale or total loss of such vessel; the termination or loss of an existing charter for a vessel, unless replaced within a specified period by a similar charter acceptable to the lenders; or the termination of a newbuilding contract. The Company’s respective lenders under its existing credit facilities covered by the Bank Agreement and the New Credit Facilities may, at their option, require the Company to repay in full amounts outstanding under such respective credit facilities, upon a “Change of Control” of the Company, which for these purposes is defined as (i) Dr. Coustas ceasing to be its Chief Executive Officer, (ii) its common stock ceasing to be listed on the NYSE (or Nasdaq or other recognized stock exchange), (iii) a change in the ultimate beneficial ownership of the capital stock of any of its subsidiaries or ultimate control of the voting rights of those shares, (iv) Dr. Coustas and members of his family ceasing to collectively own over one-third of the voting interest in its outstanding capital stock or (v) any other person or group controlling more than 20% of the voting power of its outstanding capital stock.

Covenants and Events of Default

On January 24, 2011, the Company entered into the Bank Agreement that superseded, amended and supplemented the terms of each of its existing credit facilities (other than its credit facilities with KEXIM and KEXIM-ABN Amro) and provided for, among other things, amended covenant levels under such existing credit facilities as described below, with which the Company was in compliance as of June 30, 2012.

Under the Bank Agreement, the financial covenants under each of the Company’s existing credit facilities (other than under the KEXIM-ABN Amro credit facility which is not covered thereby, but which has been aligned with those covenants below through June 30, 2014 under the supplemental letter dated August 12, 2010 and amendment thereto dated February 9, 2012 and our KEXIM credit facility, which contains only a collateral coverage covenant of 130%), have been reset to require the Company to:

·                                          maintain a ratio of (i) the market value of all of the vessels in the Company’s fleet, on a charter-inclusive basis, plus the net realizable value of any additional collateral, to (ii) the Company’s consolidated total debt above specified minimum levels gradually increasing from 90% through December 31, 2011 to 130% from September 30, 2017 through September 30, 2018;

·                                          maintain a minimum ratio of (i) the market value of the nine vessels (Hull Nos. S458, S459, S460, Hyundai Together, Hyundai Tenacity, Hanjin Greece, Hanjin Italy, Hanjin Germany and CMA CGM Rabelais) collateralizing the New Credit Facilities, calculated on a charter-free basis, plus the net realizable value of any additional collateral, to (ii) the Company’s aggregate debt outstanding under the New Credit Facilities of 100% from September 30, 2012 through September 30, 2018;

·                                          maintain minimum free consolidated unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, less the amount of the aggregate variable principal amortization amounts, described above, of $30.0 million at the end of each calendar quarter, other than during 2012 when the Company will be required to maintain a minimum amount of $20.0 million;

·                                          ensure that the Company’s (i) consolidated total debt less unrestricted cash and cash equivalents to (ii) consolidated EBITDA (defined as net income before interest, gains or losses under any hedging arrangements, tax, depreciation, amortization and any other non-cash item, capital gains or losses realized from the sale of any vessel, finance charges and capital losses on vessel cancellations and before any non-recurring items and excluding any accrued interest due to us but not received on or before the end of the relevant period; provided that non-recurring items excluded from this calculation shall not exceed 5% of EBITDA calculated in this manner) for the last twelve months does not exceed a maximum ratio gradually decreasing from 12:1 on December 31, 2010 to 4.75:1 on September 30, 2018;

·                                          ensure that the ratio of the Company’s (i) consolidated EBITDA for the last twelve months to (ii) net interest expense (defined as interest expense (excluding capitalized interest), less interest income, less realized gains on interest rate swaps (excluding capitalized gains) and plus realized losses on interest rate swaps (excluding capitalized losses)) exceeds a minimum level of 1.50:1 through September 30, 2013 and thereafter gradually increasing to 2.80:1 by September 30, 2018; and

·                                          maintain a consolidated market value adjusted net worth (defined as the amount by which the Company’s total consolidated assets adjusted for the market value of the Company’s vessels in the water less cash and cash equivalents in excess of the Company’s debt service requirements exceeds the Company’s total consolidated liabilities after excluding the net asset or liability relating to the fair value of derivatives as reflected in the Company’s financial statements for the relevant period) of at least $400 million.

For the purpose of these covenants, the market value of the Company’s vessels will be calculated, except as otherwise indicated above, on a charter-inclusive basis (using the present value of the “bareboat-equivalent” time charter income from such charter) so long as a vessel’s charter has a remaining duration at the time of valuation of more than 12 months plus the present value of the residual value of the relevant vessel (generally equivalent to the charter free value of such a vessel at the age such vessel would be at the expiration of the existing time charter). The market value for newbuilding vessels, all of which currently have multi-year charters, would equal the lesser of such amount and the newbuilding vessel’s book value.

Under the terms of the Bank Agreement, the existing credit facilities also contain customary events of default, including those relating to cross-defaults to other indebtedness, defaults under its swap agreements, non-compliance with security documents, material adverse changes to its business, a Change of Control as described above, a change in its Chief Executive Officer, its common stock ceasing to be listed on the NYSE (or Nasdaq or another recognized stock exchange), a change in, or breach of the management agreement by the manager for the vessels securing the respective credit facilities and cancellation or amendment of the time charters (unless replaced with a similar time charter with a charterer acceptable to the lenders) for the vessels securing the respective credit facilities.

Under the terms of the Bank Agreement, the Company generally will not be permitted to incur any further financial indebtedness or provide any new liens or security interests, unless such security is provided for the equal and ratable benefit of each of the lenders party to the Intercreditor Agreement, other than security arising by operation of law or in connection with the refinancing of outstanding indebtedness, with the consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, of all lenders with a lien on the security pledged against such outstanding indebtedness. In addition, the Company would not be permitted to pay cash dividends or repurchase shares of its capital stock unless (i) its consolidated net leverage is below 6:1 for four consecutive quarters and (ii) the ratio of the aggregate market value of its vessels to its outstanding indebtedness exceeds 125% for four consecutive quarters and provided that an event of default has not occurred and the Company is not, and after giving effect to the payment of the dividend, in breach of any covenant.

Collateral and Guarantees

Each of the Company’s existing credit facilities and swap arrangements, to the extent applicable, continue to be secured by their previous collateral on the same basis, and received, to the extent not previously provided, pledges of the shares of the Company’s subsidiaries owning the vessels collateralizing the applicable facilities, cross-guarantees from each subsidiary owning the vessels collateralizing such facilities, assignment of the refund guarantees in relation to any newbuildings funded by such facilities and other customary shipping industry collateral.

New Credit Facilities (Aegean Baltic Bank—HSH Nordbank—Piraeus Bank, RBS, ABN Amro Club facility, Club Facility and Citi-Eurobank)

On January 24, 2011, the Company entered into agreements for the following new term loan credit facilities (“New Credit Facilities”):

(i)                                     a $123.8 million credit facility provided by HSH, which is secured by Hyundai Speed, Hanjin Italy and CMA CGM Rabelais and customary shipping industry collateral related thereto (the $123.8 million amount includes principal commitment of $23.75 million under the Aegean Baltic Bank—HSH Nordbank—Piraeus Bank credit facility already drawn as of December 31, 2010, which was transferred to the new facility upon finalization of the agreement in 2011);

(ii)                                  a $100.0 million credit facility provided by RBS, which is secured by Hyundai Smart and Hanjin Greece and customary shipping industry collateral related thereto;

(iii)                               a $37.1 million credit facility with ABN Amro and lenders participating under the Bank Agreement which is secured by Hanjin Germany and customary shipping industry collateral related thereto;

(iv)                              a $83.9 million new club credit facility to be provided, on a pro rata basis, by the other existing lenders participating under the Bank Agreement, which is secured by Hyundai Together and Hyundai Tenacity and customary shipping industry collateral related thereto; and

(v)                                 a $80 million credit facility with Citibank and Eurobank, which is secured by Hyundai Ambition and customary shipping industry collateral related thereto ((i)-(v), collectively, the “New Credit Facilities”).

As of June 30, 2012, $424.8 million was outstanding under the above New Credit Facilities and there were nil undrawn funds available.

Borrowings under each of the New Credit Facilities above, which were available for drawdown until the later of September 30, 2012 and delivery of the Company’s last contracted newbuilding vessel collateralizing such facility (so long as such delivery is no more than 240 days after the scheduled delivery date), bear interest at an annual interest rate of LIBOR plus a margin of 1.85%, subject, on and after January 1, 2013, to increases in the applicable margin to: (i) 2.50% if the outstanding indebtedness thereunder exceeds $276 million, (ii) 3.00% if the outstanding indebtedness thereunder exceeds $326 million and (iii) 3.50% if the outstanding indebtedness thereunder exceeds $376 million.

Principal Payments

Under the Bank Agreement, the Company is not required to repay any outstanding principal amounts under its New Credit Facilities until after March 31, 2013 and thereafter it will be required to make quarterly principal payments in fixed amounts as specified in the Bank Agreement plus an additional quarterly variable amortization payment, all as described above under “—Bank Agreement—Principal Payments.”

Covenants, Events of Default and Other Terms

The New Credit Facilities contain substantially the same financial and operating covenants, events of default, dividend restrictions and other terms and conditions as applicable to the Company’s existing credit facilities as revised under the Bank Agreement described above.

Collateral and Guarantees

The collateral described above relating to the newbuildings being financed by the respective credit facilities, will be (other than in respect of the CMA CGM Rabelais) subject to a limited participation by Hyundai Samho in any enforcement thereof until repayment of the related Hyundai Samho Vendor financing (described below) for such vessels. In addition lenders who participate in the new $83.9 million club credit facility described above received a lien on Hyundai Together and Hyundai Tenacity as additional security in respect of the existing credit facilities the Company has with such lenders. The lenders under the other New Credit Facilities also received a lien on the respective vessels securing such New Credit Facilities as additional collateral in respect of its existing credit facilities and interest rate swap arrangements with such lenders and Citibank and Eurobank also received a second lien on Hyundai Ambition as collateral in respect of its currently unsecured interest rate arrangements with them.

Sinosure-CEXIM-Citi-ABN Amro Credit Facility

On February 21, 2011, the Company entered into a bank agreement with Citibank, acting as agent, ABN Amro and the Export-Import Bank of China (“CEXIM”) for a senior secured credit facility (the “Sinosure-CEXIM Credit Facility”) of up to $203.4 million, in three tranches each in an amount equal to the lesser of $67.8 million and 60.0% of the contract price for the newbuilding vessels, CMA CGM Tancredi, CMA CGM Bianca and CMA CGM Samson, securing such tranche for post-delivery financing of these vessels. The Company took delivery of the respective vessels in 2011. The China Export & Credit Insurance Corporation, or Sinosure, covers a number of political and commercial risks associated with each tranche of the credit facility.

Borrowings under the Sinosure-CEXIM Credit Facility bear interest at an annual interest rate of LIBOR plus a margin of 2.85% payable semi-annually in arrears. The Company is required to repay principal amounts drawn under each tranche of the Sinosure-CEXIM Credit Facility in consecutive semi-annual installments over a ten-year period commencing after the delivery of the respective newbuilding being financed by such amount through the final maturity date of the respective tranches and repay the respective tranche in full upon the loss of the respective newbuilding.

As of June 30, 2012, $193.2 million was outstanding under the credit facility and there were no undrawn funds available.

Covenants, Events of Default and Other Terms

The Sinosure-CEXIM Credit Facility requires the Company to:

·                                maintain a ratio of total net debt (defined as total liabilities less cash and cash equivalents) to adjusted total consolidated assets (total consolidated assets with market value of vessels replacing book value of vessels less cash and cash equivalents) of no more than 70%;

·                                maintain a minimum ratio of the market value of the vessel collateralizing a tranche of the facility to debt outstanding under such tranche of 125%;

·                                maintain minimum free consolidated unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, through February 21, 2014, of $30.0 million, and the higher of $30.0 million and 2% of consolidated total debt thereafter;

·                                ensure that the ratio of the Company’s (i) consolidated EBITDA (defined as net income before interest, gains or losses under any hedging arrangements, tax, depreciation, amortization and any other non-cash item, capital gains or losses realized from the sale of any vessel, financing payments, fees and commissions and capital losses on vessel cancellations and before any non-recurring items) for the last twelve months to (ii) interest expense (defined as the aggregate amount of interest, commission, fees and other finance charges (excluding capitalized interest)) exceeds 2.50:1; and

·                                maintain a consolidated market value adjusted net worth (defined as the Company’s total consolidated assets adjusted for the market value of the Company’s vessels less the Company’s total consolidated liabilities) of at least $400 million.

For the purpose of these covenants, the market value of the Company’s vessels will be calculated, except as otherwise indicated above, on a charter-inclusive basis (using the present value of the “bareboat-equivalent” time charter income from such charter) so long as a vessel’s charter has a remaining duration at the time of valuation of more than six months plus the present value of the residual value of the relevant vessel (generally equivalent to the charter free value of such a vessel at the age such vessel would be at the expiration of the existing time charter). The market value for newbuilding vessels, all of which currently have multi-year charters, would equal the lesser of such amount and the newbuilding vessel’s book value.

The Sinosure-CEXIM credit facility also contains customary events of default, including those relating to cross-defaults to other indebtedness, defaults under its swap agreements, non-compliance with security documents, material adverse changes to its business, a Change of Control as described above, a change in its Chief Executive Officer, its common stock ceasing to be listed on the NYSE (or Nasdaq or another recognized stock exchange), a change in, or breach of the management agreement by, the manager for the mortgaged vessels and cancellation or amendment of the time charters (unless replaced with a similar time charter with a charterer acceptable to the lenders) for the mortgaged vessels.

The Company will not be permitted to pay cash dividends or repurchase shares of its capital stock unless (i) its consolidated net leverage is below 6:1 for four consecutive quarters and (ii) the ratio of the aggregate market value of its vessels to its outstanding indebtedness exceeds 125% for four consecutive quarters and provided that an event of default has not occurred and the Company is not, and after giving effect to the payment of the dividend is not, in breach of any covenant.

Collateral

The Sinosure-CEXIM Credit Facility is secured by customary pre-delivery and post-delivery shipping industry collateral with respect to the newbuilding vessels, CMA CGM Tancredi, CMA CGM Bianca and CMA CGM Samson, securing the respective tranche.

Hyundai Samho Vendor Financing

The Company entered into an agreement with Hyundai Samho Heavy Industries (“Hyundai Samho”) for a financing facility of $190.0 million in respect of eight of its newbuilding containerships being built by Hyundai Samho, Hyundai Smart, Hyundai Speed, Hyundai Ambition, Hyundai Together, Hyundai Tenacity, Hanjin Greece, Hanjin Italy and Hanjin Germany, in the form of delayed payment of a portion of the final installment for each such newbuilding.

Borrowings under this facility bear interest at a fixed interest rate of 8%. The Company will be required to repay principal amounts under this financing facility in six consecutive semi-annual installments commencing one and a half years, in the case of three of the newbuilding vessels being financed, and in seven consecutive semi-annual installments commencing one year, in the case of the other five newbuilding vessels, after the delivery of the respective newbuilding being financed. This financing facility does not require the Company to comply with financial covenants, but contains customary events of default, including those relating to cross-defaults. This financing facility is secured by second priority collateral related to the newbuilding vessels being financed.

Exit Fee

The Company will be required to pay an aggregate Exit Fee of $15.0 million payable on the common maturity date of the New Credit Facilities of December 31, 2018, or such earlier date when all of the New Credit Facilities are repaid in full, which will accrete in the condensed consolidated Statement of Income over the life of the respective facilities (with the effective interest method) and is reported under “Long-term debt, net of current portion” in the condensed consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company has recognized an amount of $2.5 million and $1.6 million as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.
