Issued by: Approved by: Date Issue Page HSEQ DEPARTMENT GENERAL MANAGER January 2017 0 1 of 7 SAFETY MANAGEMENT MANUAL According to IMO Resolution A.741(18), as amended – ISM Code CHAPTER 9 SURVEYS AND INSPECTIONS 4. DESIGNATED PERSON(S) The responsibility and authority of the Designated Person or Persons Ashore should include monitoring the safety and pollution-prevention aspects of the operation of each ship. 9.1 FOREWORD National and international legislation and classification societies regulations require periodical and occasional surveys to be carried out on board in order to ascertain that the operational conditions of the ships are in compliance with regulations in force Further inspections are required by charterers and commercial partners, with the purpose of assessing the suitability of the ship to a specific service, her conditions of maintenance, the certification and training of the crew and the Company’s management standard. The Company too has set up its own program of inspections, in order to check the general conditions of its ships and, as far as the crew is concerned, their familiarization with assigned tasks, their operational and safety training, the compliance with the procedures detailed in the Company’s manuals. 9.2 FLAG STATE AND CLASS SURVEYS Surveys required by Flag State legislation and classification Societies regulations must be carried out in due time, so that the relevant certificates are always in regular course of validity. As far as keeping and updating the certificates lists, both on board and ashore, their expiry dates, the relevant obligations from the ships and the Company and the organization of surveys, see subsequent Chapter 14. 9.3 SAFETY INSPECTIONS 9.3.1 – Flag State Safety Survey (Visita dei servizi di bordo) Italian-flagged ships are subjected to an annual ship’s safety survey (visita dei servizi di bordo), in accordance with art. 30 of Decree 8.11.1991, no.435 – Safety Regulations. The survey is carried by the maritime authorities of any Italian port of call of the ship. In any case, the time interval between two surveys cannot exceed 15 months. On completion of the survey the maritime authority issues to the Master the relevant minutes, listing pointed-out deficiencies with conditions and times allowed for their correction, and containing a final judgement. 9.3.1(a) - Procedure to be followed The following procedure should be observed when a ship is subjected to a Flag State safety survey (visita dei servizi di bordo) in an Italian port: • The Master must:  Notify immediately the DPA that the vessel is undergoing a Flag State safety survey, even if Company's representatives (officials, superintendents, etc.) are already present on board;  as soon as received, send to the DPA a copy of the survey's minutes;  in case of deficiencies provide for their correction within the allowed time limits. In case that they represent non conformities to specific rules (SOLAS 74/78, MARPOL 73/78, STCW/95, R.S./1991, DL 271/1999), forward as soon as possible to the DPA a Non Conformity Report (see Chapter 10 - § 10.3);  insert the survey's minutes in the ship's documents file and send a copy to the Technical Department, together with an updated list of documents, to be filed ashore (see Chapter 14 - § 14.1(e)). • The DPA must:  ensure that the Master receives all necessary assistance from the concerned Company's Departments, both during survey operations and for any deficiency corrections.

In case the ship does not call an Italian port for a period exceeding 14 months, the safety survey shall be carried out by a committee comprising the Master, the Ch. Engineer, the Safety Officer and a crewmember, using the special questionnaire and drawing up two copies of the minutes, which shall be endorsed by an Italian consular authority. One copy shall be kept in the ship’s documents file, and the other one shall be sent to the Company’s HSEQ Department that, in turn, shall forward it to the authority of the ship’s port of registry (article 30.5 of the Regulations). Copy of the minutes shall also be sent to the Technical Department, together with an updated list of documents, to be filed ashore (see Chapter 14 - § 14.1(e)). 9.3.2 – Port State Controls (PSC) - Memorandum of Paris (PMoU) In foreign ports ships may be surveyed by the Port State authorities (Port State Controls - PSC), in order to check their safety conditions, as provided by SOLAS 74/78 - I/19 e XI/4. With a view to regulating and standardizing such surveys the maritime Countries belonging to the European Union signed the Memorandum of Understanding on Port State Control – Paris, 26.01.1982. Presently, in addition to the 22 maritime Member States of the E.U., Canada, Croatia, Iceland, Norway and the Russian Federation have joined the MOU 1982. Similar international agreements have been drawn up in various parts of the world such as, for instance, in the far East (Tokyo MoU), South America (Viña del Mar Agreement), etc. As a rule, each member State inspects the 25% of the average number of foreign ships which entered its ports during the three last calendar years for which statistics are available. On completion of the survey, the PSO Officer hands over to the Master a written report stating its outcome and listing any deficiency and the conditions and times allowed for their corrective action, in accordance with the following code: DEFICIENCY ACTION CODE: 10 deficiency rectified 18 rectify deficiency within 3 months 15 rectify deficiency at next port 30 ship detained 16 rectify deficiency within 14 days 99 other (specify in clear text). 17 rectify deficiency before departure 9.3.2(a) – Paris MoU – New Inspection Regime (NIR) On the 1 January 2011 the PMoU, in cooperation with the European Union (Directive 2009/16/EC), st introduced the New Inspection Regime (NIR) aiming at changing its target of inspecting 25% of individual ships calling at each member state to a share commitment for full coverage of inspecting all ships visiting ports and anchorages in the PMoU region as a whole. Inspection reports will be recorded on an information system Thetis hosted and managed by EMSA in Lisbon, Portugal, available for search and daily updating by PMoU member States. Ships are assigned a Ship Risk Profile (SRP) based on various criteria (type, age, flag, class, company, number of deficiencies, number of detentions): ⇒ Low Risk Ships (LRS). Assuming that all other criteria are met, this SRP is largely based on the Flag State being included in the “white list” and complying with the Voluntary IMO Member State Audit Scheme (VIMSAS). - Inspections time window: between 24-36 months after the last inspection in the PMoU region. - Subject to a 24 hours pre-arrival message (ETA24). ⇒ Standard Risk Ships (SRS). Eligible for initial and more detailed inspections. - Inspection time window: between 10-12 months after the last inspection in the PMoU region. FRATELLI d’AMICO ARMATORI S.p.A. - ROMA

Issued by: Approved by: Date Issue Page HSEQ DEPARTMENT GENERAL MANAGER January 2017 0 3 of 7 SAFETY MANAGEMENT MANUAL According to IMO Resolution A.741(18), as amended – ISM Code CHAPTER 9 SURVEYS AND INSPECTIONS - Subject to a 24 hours pre-arrival message (ETA24). ⇒ High Risk Ships (HRS). Eligible for an expanded inspection. - Inspection time window: between 5-6 months after the last inspection in the PMoU region. - Subject to a 72 hours pre-arrival message (ETA72) and a 24 hours pre-arrival message (ETA24). Ship-owners have the obligation to identify the Ship Risk Profile (SRP), in order to allow their vessels to send the appropriate pre-arrival messages. The present situation of the Company’s fleet, taking into consideration all available assessment parameters, is: • 1 Aframax oil tankers class MES/Tamano: Being more than 12 years old, they are High Risk Ships (HRS). • 2 Aframax oil tankers class MES/Chiba: Being less than 12 years old, they are Standard Risk Ships (SRS). • 3 Suezmax oil tankers class SHI/Geoje: Being less than 12 years old, they are Standard Risk Ships (SRS). Pre-arrival messages (ETA72 and/or ETA24) shall be sent to the Port State authorities through the local Agents. The SRP assessment is a continuous process, as it is linked to variable factors, some of them out of the Company’s control, like Flag State and class society performance. As for the Company’s performance, it depends above all on the outcome of its ships’ PSCs, as the poor results of a single ship can affect it and, consequently, the SRP of the entire fleet. Therefore, the DPA and the HSEQ Department, will closely monitor the situation, using the appropriate tools supplied by the PMoU itself, and any variation in SRP will be immediately notified to the concerned ship(s) as well as to the top Management. 9.3.2(b) - Procedure to be followed in case of PSC The following procedure should be observed every time that a ship is subjected to a PSC in a foreign port: • The Master must:  notify immediately the DPA that the ship is undergoing a PSC, even if Company's representatives (officials, superintendents, etc.) are already present on board;  send to the DPA the report, as soon as received;  in case of the ship being detained, notify immediately the DPA and request assistance from the local office of the Classification Society (RINA);  in case of deficiencies provide for their correction within the allowed time limits. In case that hey represent non conformities to specific rules (SOLAS 74/78, MARPOL 73/78, STCW/95, IMO, EU, CFR rules, etc.) forward as soon as possible to the DPA a Non Conformity Report (see Chapter 10 - § 10.3);  insert the report in the ship's documents file and send a copy to the Technical Department, together with an updated list of documents, to be filed ashore (see Chapter 14 - § 14.1(e)). • The DPA must:  ensure that the Master receives all necessary assistance from the concerned Company's Departments, both during PSC operations and for any deficiency corrections;  in case of the ship being detained inform immediately the Administration;  check that all deficiencies have been corrected and eliminated.  assess jointly with the Heads of Department the non-conformity report and ensure that appropriate action is taken also on board all ships of the Company's fleet, as necessary.  forward by fax or e-mail to the Administration copy of all PSC reports pointing out deficiencies, even if they did not result in the ship being detained (MARICOGECAP letter 23005 dated 16.03.2009): FRATELLI d’AMICO ARMATORI S.p.A. - ROMA

The validity of the COC is of two years, with an annual check examination. The master of a tanker bound for an U.S.A. port with no valid COC on board must notify the Officer in Charge, Marine Inspection, of the port of destination, via his local Agent, at least 7 days before arrival. This notification is in addition to any other pre-arrival notice to the USCG required by other regulations (46 CFR 153.809). PSC and ISPS inspections may also be carried out by the USCG in the occasion of a COC inspection. The information exchange procedure between the ship and the DPA in case of a COC inspection, even if announced, is the same as for the PSC inspections, as detailed in previous § 9.3.2(b). 9.4 INSPECTIONS BY CHARTERERS (VETTING) Oil Majors members of the Oil Companies International Marine Forum (OCIMF) have established a program of careful inspections for vetting the oil tankers to be used for the carriage of their cargoes, called SIRE (Ship Inspection Report Programme), linked to a data base located at the OCIMF main Office in London accessible to all participating Majors. Inspections are carried out by qualified inspectors, belonging either to the Oil Major itself or to external organizations, according to a Uniform Vessel Inspection Procedure drawn up by OCIMF, in conformity with a special Vessel Inspection Questionnaire (VIQ). In order to ascertain the ship’s operational suitability at its best, inspections are normally carried out during stays in ports of discharge. Ships chartering is subject to the approval by the various Majors. Because of the approvals limited validity, vetting inspections must be carefully planned, requesting them from the Majors well in advance. Whenever possible, the Master is assisted by a Company’s representative during vetting inspections. Because of their relevant commercial importance, planning and organizing vetting inspections is cared by the Chartering Department, in agreement with Marine, Technical and Crewing Departments and with the HSEQ Department. On completion of the vetting inspection the inspector hands over to the master a preliminary report containing his observations. The master shall send a copy of the report to the Chartering Department as soon as possible. The outcome of the inspection is notified by the Major to the Company's Chartering Department, which is granted a 14-day time limit to answer, sending its comments and informing about all measures taken to deal with any observation. Once the above time has passed, the vetting outcome, whether amended or not, will be entered in the SIRE data base. FRATELLI d’AMICO ARMATORI S.p.A. - ROMA

The ship will get a copy of the review meeting minutes which are to be actioned as required and filed along with a copy of the original form. 10.5.1 – Preventive measures In accordance with the results of investigation, the Head of the concerned Department shall decide about the measures to be taken to avoid the repetition of the event. Such measures may consist in supplying the ships with new spares or equipment, issuing new instructions to the ship’s or shore personnel, establishing new operational procedures or modifying the existing ones. During internal audits, the Company’s auditor shall check that all preventive measures have been actually enacted, both ashore and on board, that they are carried out by responsible personnel. 10.5.2 – Safety Notices Experience gained and lessons learnt from particularly remarkable events occurred on board ships and notified by the masters must be shared with all responsible persons of the Company’s organization, both on board and ashore. This is indeed the best way of improving people’s awareness of the various unexpected difficult situations which may arise in our activity, and so avoid the recurrence of unfortunate events. Therefore the Company’s management shall inform all its masters and ship’s officers, as well as key persons ashore, of the results and conclusions of its investigations. To this purpose, whenever deemed appropriate, a special information note, called a Safety Notice (FORM HSEQ 18), shall be issued by the Company’s HSEQ Department and sent to the masters of all ships and to the heads of the shore departments. Safety Notices are numbered in sequence, beginning each year. They are sent via e-mail as soon as issued, and shall be acknowledged by the same mean. The purpose of a Safety Notice is to disseminate useful information among the officers of the Company’s fleet and the shore personnel, in order to avoid and to prevent the occurrence and the repetition of incidents and dangerous situations. It does not intend to represent any criticism, judgement or blame for any person, however involved. Investigations of unfortunate events are carried out by the Company having in mind the superior interests and well-being of its ships and their crew and the protection of the environment, on the basis of a sound no-blame policy. On board ships, Safety Notices shall be read and discussed by the masters and their deck and engineering officers, being also the main subject of the monthly meetings of the Ship’s Emergency Team (see Chapter 4 – § 4.7), and shall be regularly used for on-board training process. They shall be kept under the control of the master in a special file. Because of their confidential nature, they must be considered as internal documents and, as a rule, shall not be exhibited to persons from outside the ship and the Company, including Flag and Port State authorities 10.6 Documentation Original reports, together with the whole documentation of the investigation and analysis process, its results, copy of any Safety Report issued, the description of adopted measures and lesson learnt, shall be filed by the HSEQ Department and, when appropriate, will be share with industry groups including professional institute and oil majors departments. The “Incident Investigation” report must be published on the OCIMF website at “Incident Area” section. FRATELLI d’AMICO ARMATORI S.p.A. - ROMA

Provide for safe practices in ship operation and a safe working environment, 2. Assess all identified risks to its ships, personnel and the environment and establish appropriate safeguards, and 3. Continuously improve safety management skills of personnel ashore and aboard ships, including preparing for emergencies related both to safety and environmental protection. 7. DEVELOPMENT OF PLANS FOR SHIPBOARD OPERATIONS The Company should establish procedures, plans and instructions, including checklists as appropriate, for key shipboard operations concerning the safety of the personnel, ship and protection of the environment. The various tasks should be defined and assigned to qualified personnel. 8. EMERGENCY PREPARDNESS 8.1 The Company should identify potential emergency shipboard situations, and establish procedures to respond to them. 12.1 - Risk Assessment and Hazard Identification A Risk Assessment system has been developed for the Company's type of ships and has been integrated with the assessment for fittings and specific activities according to the ISM Code, as amended by Resolution MSC 273(85) and to Italian Coast Guard Headquarters circular letter No. 83 dated 21.05.2010. The risk assessment system and identification of hazards guarantees the conformity of the operational procedures and instructions defined in this manual (see following § 12.2) with the ISM Code and the Administration's rules. It has been defined a “standard procedure” to permit, when required, an assessment on board for an operation/activity not considered. The risk assessment for the safety of working environment has been defined following the rules contained in the D. Lve 27.07.1999, no. 271 and its subsequent integrations. The definition of the risk-value has been obtained using the experience and analysing data of incidents included in the best practice investigations. Procedures take into account (but not limited to) • Routine and non- routine activities (ref. Chap 7.1.2) • Health & Hygiene risk where appropriate • Anticipated mooring arrangement and equipment to ensure Safety of personnel • Activities of all personnel having access to workplace (including contractors and visitors) • Human behaviour, capabilities and other factors, • Identified hazards originating outside vessel, capable of affecting the health and safety of persons onboard as well as onboard work activities which may create hazards in the vicinity of the vessel.(these may include environmental aspects) • Facilities at the workplace, whether provided by the company or others. • All other operational hazards covering safety, environmental, security impacts. The Risk Assessment system must be verified on board every 12 months to check the conformity of safety and pollution prevention procedures with the Safety Management System (SMS). The risks have been defined for: • the health and safety of all people who are directly or indirectly involved in the activity, or who may be otherwise affected; • the ship; • the environment. The Risk Assessment system has been planned in the following way: • Identification of all existing hazards; • Identification of all causes bringing hazard during the operation/activity analysed; FRATELLI d’AMICO ARMATORI S.p.A. - ROMA

Issued by: Approved by: Date Issue Page HSEQ DEPARTMENT GENERAL MANAGER January 2017 0 2 of 2 SAFETY MANAGEMENT MANUAL According to IMO Resolution A.741(18), as amended – ISM Code CHAPTER 12 OPERATIONAL PROCEDURES AND INSTRUCTIONS • Identification of all prevention and control measures; • Description of all consequences for people, ships and environment, considering the mitigated measures; • Assessment of the occurrence probability, considering the mitigating measures; • Assessment of the hazard severity, considering the mitigating measures; • Assessment of the risk level as a function of occurrence probability and hazard severity. 12.1.1 - The Risk Assessment Plan. A Risk Assessment Plan, both in paper and electronic form, is available both on board and in the Company's shore offices. It should be used in the following way (as per enclosed instructions): 1) Risk Assessment templates are provided for the majority of work activities carried out onboard as stated in the index. 2) Choose the relevant template from DECK and ENGINE sheets, fill in and achieved on board. 3) Review each of the hazards and fill the relevant \"Existing Control Measures\" cells if such measures are already implemented on the vessel. Work permits provided by the Permit to work system (see Section 12.8 - § 12.8.12.3) are themselves existing control measures. 4) Additional control measures, if identified for the given hazard, can be added at the bottom of the \"Existing Control Measures\" cells of the relevant hazard. 5) Fill the \"Probability (P)\" and \"Hazard Severity (S)\" box taking into account the existing control measures. 6) Additional hazards, if identified, can be added at the bottom of the HAZARD ANALYSIS OF THE INTENDED ACTIVITY form. 7) If the risk level assessed is HIGH, VERY HIGH or EXTREMELY HIGH, mitigation is necessary, as per corresponding \"Action\" rating, and additional control measures must be implemented. Such measures shall be recorded in the cells of the relevant hazards. 8) If the risk level is MEDIUM, monitoring is required to insure control is maintained, and additional checks may be anyhow carried out, in order to ascertain if the risk level can be further reduced at reasonable cost and with little effort. Appropriate references to the Risk Assessment Plan are contained in this manual, as necessary. 12.2 - Operational Procedures and Instructions. In this chapter, the Company supplies its shore personnel and the masters, officers and crew of its ships with appropriate instructions and procedures to be followed in order to enable them to carry out their tasks in an effective way and in safe conditions. The chapter is subdivided in the following sections: 12.1 Foreword – Implications of commercial decisions in terms of safety 12.2.1 Sailing – Navigation bridge 12.2.2 Sailing – GMDSS 12.2.3 Sailing – Engine room 12.3 Protection of the environment 12.4 Cargo operations 12.5 Ship in port 12.6 Preparing for sailing 12.7 Ship’s Security 12.8 Safety of working environment and health of the crew.

DEVELOPMENT OF PLANS FOR SHIPBOARD OPERATIONS The Company should establish procedures, plans and instructions, including checklists as appropriate, for key shipboard operationsconcerning the safety of the personnel, ship and protection of the environment. The various tasks should be defined and assigned to qualified personnel. Procedures and operational instructions contained in Chapter 12 – Sections 12.2 ÷ 12.8 – are given as guidance only and do not intend to cover all shipboard situations and activities. They are based on national and international codes of practice, guidelines and publications, and are supplemented both by mandatory pubblications and manuals required by laws (see Chapters 6 & 14) and by those provided by the Company’s SMS (see Chapter 15, § 15.2). These procedures and instructions point out those aspects of the operation of the ships that the Company deems necessary to bring to the attention of the crew. This choice is not to be considered as an underestimate of other operational aspects of the ship that the Company assumes are well known to the crew. Their contents do not restrict in any way the Master's authority to take such steps and issue such orders, whether or not they are in accordance with the contents of the above-mentioned procedures and instructions, considered necessary for the preservation of life, the safety of the ship and the protection of the environment. In particular, emergency procedures are recommended only if applicable and feasible. 12.1.1 Implication of commercial decisions in terms of safety Due consideration must always be given to the implications that commercial decisions may have in terms of safety, ship’s operation and pollution prevention. Particularly, unless commercially managed by a Pool or employed on time-charter, the Chartering Department must always ascertain that ships charterparties clearly state that: ◊ the intended voyage(s) must be along the normal traffic routes, within the navigation limits requested by underwriters (Institute Warranty Clauses); ◊ the Master has the maximum liberty in planning and carrying-out the passages; ◊ ports and berths must be clearly declared as safe and reacheable by the ship always afloat; ◊ the ship must be able to carry the stipulated cargo in safe conditions, on a draft never exceeding her maximum load line for the most restrictive of the seasonal areas she will sail through, in accordance with Convention LL 66/88; ◊ the cargo must be such that it can be loaded and stowed on board so that the ship always respects the hull stress and stability conditions requested by her loading manuals approved by the Administration or the classification Societies; ◊ cargoes to be loaded must be lawful; ◊ the Shippers shall supply the Master and/or the Company’s Chartering Department with the appropriate cargo informations, on the time and in the ways provided by SOLAS 74/78 – VI/2 & 5.1. In case of special demands (cargo, ship’s performances, operational area, etc.), before supplying the Master with the voyage orders, the Chartering Department shall consult the Technical, Marine and Insurance Departments, and the HSEQ Departments. 12.1.2 Reviewing Voyage Instructions The Chartering and Operation Manager is responsible to ensure that voyage orders and requirements for specific voyage have been communicated and understood by the Master and it is also followed step by step throughout the voyage except when vessel in Commercial Management Pool in which case he will have a role of control over these very same obligations that are delegated to the Pool Voyage Manager. The Chartering and Operation Manager upon receiving Charterer’s Voyage Orders will check them to ensure that they comply with C/P requirements where applicable and with Company’s and vessel’s procedure as per the Company’s Management System’s Manual.

In case of arising issues for further consideration, a special meeting may be organized in order to address and resolve them. Upon completion of the above process, the voyage orders are forwarded to the General Manager, for his final review and approval, before being communicated to the vessel. The Voyage Orders Review will be forwarded to the Master by the Chartering and Operations Manager complemented with additional guidance to the Master, when this is considered appropriate. The Master will be alerted and his eventual feedback required, if necessary, in matters of, but not limited to, routing, under keel clearance, cargo tank preparation, cargo tank vapour management, emergency notification and exchange of information related to port terminal specific environmental requirements The Master will confirm safe receipt and full understanding. In case of Voyage Orders being received also by the vessel from the Time Charterers or the Commercial Operators, the Master will wait for the final approval as above. In case of any arising difficulty to comply, or in case of further clarifications are needed, the Master is instructed to contact immediately the Chartering and Operation Manager for further instructions and guidance. The Master is also expected to consider the voyage orders from his end; in case of any notified discrepancy between the orders and the established Company’s procedures, or in case of existence of physical restrictions to comply, he should immediately notify the Chartering and Operations department for further instructions. It is worth mentioning that the Master is not authorized to ignore or to deviate from the voyage orders by own initiative (except in case of emergency), but he should always communicate his comments to the Office, in order the Operations department to revert with feasible guidance. Same as above practice of reviewing is carried out each time voyage order updates are received. As per the Company’s established practices, the General Manager and the Technical, Marine and HSEQ Managers are always reachable by e-mail and phone during nights, weekends and holidays. Local orders SHOULD NOT be followed unless prior approval by the Chartering and Operations Manager, the Commercial Operator or the Time Charter Operator is obtained. The voyage orders are the definitive instructions. In case of information or instructions given from anyone (even if it appears to be from the Charterers directly) that contradicts these orders, the Chartering and Operations Manager should be always contacted your for verification. The Master shall never accept to load a cargo whose carriage is not allowed by the ship’s certificates. FRATELLI d’AMICO ARMATORI S.p.A. - ROMA

sued by: Approved by: Date Issue Page HSEQ DEPARTMENT GENERAL MANAGER JANUARY 2017 0 6 of 10 SAFETY MANAGEMENT MANUAL According to IMO Resolution A.741(18) as amended – ISM Code SECTION 12.2.3 SAILING – ENGINE ROOM  Escape routes must be marked by the special IMO symbols (green).  Machinery moving parts must be properly shielded.  Isolating footboards or floors must be placed in way of electrical switchboards and panels.  Cocks of glass-tube level indicators must be kept shut.  Double bottom tanks sounding pipes must be kept closed by means of their weighted covers.  Materials and spares must be kept in their special racks and properly secured.  Bilges must be clean and dry.  No leaks or traces of oily or greasy materials.  No oily rags or waste. 12.2.3.8 PROCEDURE TO AVOID SPARK FROM THE FUNNEL The danger arising from particles of incandescent soot being discharged from the funnel can be minimised by operation of the soot blowers on a routine basis at sea and also by operating the soot blowers as close before entering port as permissible. Soot blowing should preferably be carried out when there is sufficient load on the boiler to ensure a good uptake gas flow, in order to carry the deposits clear of the funnel. To avoid sparks from the funnel especially in port, ensure that carbon particles and un-burnt fuel particles are minimized in the pipe stacks. Dry soot has a high ignition temperature, and hence rarely catches fire. Once soot becomes wet, its ignition temperature drops significantly, and it burns very easily. This is why one can see sparks from funnel after Exhaust Gas Boiler has been water-washed, or after heavy rains during port stay. The sparks are caused by burning of wet soot particles. - Soot blow to be carried out once a day for Aux. Boiler and twice a day for the Exhaust Gas Boiler. Note: excessive soot blowing by means of steam might cause erosion damage on the generating bank. - Ensure that the funnel sparks arrest are regularly inspected and maintained always in good condition. - Aux. Boiler burners to be maintained in good condition to ensure good combustion and smoke sides of Aux. Boilers and Exhaust Gas Boilers to be maintained clean by regular water washings or air/steam cleaning as instructed by the boiler maker. - Avoid washing of the Exhaust Gas Boiler In port. lf this cannot be avoided ensure that a very thorough cleaning using copious amounts of water and ensuring that the Exhaust Gas Boiler is thoroughly cleaned before being put into use. After washing, run the boiler water circulating pump. This will cause a lot of soot to fall into the casing bottom, which must be cleaned before departure. - Ensure proper soot blowing of the Exhaust Gas Boiler and Aux. Boiler, before entering port. - Water washing using HP must be avoid. - Before to proceed with water washing make sure that the drain is not clogged - Maintain the Aux. Boiler on continuous firing mode if possible. - Maintain all internal combustion engines in good condition and carry out regular performance check on the engines to ensure optimum combustion. - Avoid unnecessary starting of the Auxiliary engines. - On every occasion before soot blowing, the bridge should be informed so that a watch can be kept on possible funnel sparking which has been the cause of several incidents of fire on the aft poop deck.

The above documents should remain conspicuously posted on board throughout bunkering operations, to be eventually filed by the Chief Engineer in the bunkering file. The Declaration of Inspection must be kept filed on board at U.S.C.G. disposal, for at least three months. Bunkering of fuel and bulk lubricating oils must be recorded in the Oil Record Book – Part I: Machinery space operations, as required by MARPOL 73/78 – Annex I – Regulation 17 and in the Engine Room Log Book. 12.2.3.11 TRANSFERRING BILGE WATERS AND OILY RESIDUES TO THE CARGO SLOP TANKS All ships are fitted with a special piping system for transferring bilge water and oily residues from the engine room to the cargo slop tanks. The system is approved and is recorded in the Form B attached to the IOPP certificate. The content of the bilge and sludge tanks may be transferred to the dirty slop tank whenever it contains waters and oily residues resulting from cargo tanks washing operations, or when such operations have been planned. The following procedures must be always observed:  Transfer operations must be agreed in advance between the Chief Engineer and the Chief Officer, with Master approval;  water and residues to be transferred must not contain any kind of chemicals, par-ticularly emulsifying agents;  Chief Engineer and Chief Officer shall jointly collect samples of waters and residues to be transferred. Such samples, duly sealed and counter-signed, must be kept on board in the care of the Chief Engineer for at least three months;  The Chief Engineer shall enter the transfer operation in the Oil Record Book – Part I.  The Chief Officer shall enter the transfer operation in the Oil Record Book – Part II.  The subsequent disposal of bilge water and oily residues transferred from the engine room shall be entered by the Chief Officer in the Oil Record Book – Part II. Disposal of bilge water and oily residues must be carried out in full compliance with all applicable national and international rules in force (see Section 12.3 - § 12.3.2). 12.2.3.12 POTABLE WATER 12.2.3.12.1 Freshwater loading and supply arrangements  Freshwater from low pressure evaporator or reverse osmosis should in general only be produced when the vessel is at least 20 miles from land or remote from any risk of estuarial pollution which in some sea areas can extend well in excess of 20 miles from land. The sea water suction to evaporators or reverse osmosis plants should be separate from other sea suctions e.g. machinery cooling water inlets, fire pump suctions, etc., and sited forward and on the opposite side of the ship from sanitary or bilge discharges.  Freshwater obtained from shore mains supply or water barge should be transferred by a hose exclusively used for that purpose.  Freshwater tanks should be coated internally with anti-corrosive materials which have been specially developed for fresh water tanks and will not contaminate the water. When modern epoxy coating systems are used, it is essential that the coatings are applied and allowed to cure strictly in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. The manufacturer's advice on filling, flushing and emptying freshwater tanks before these are connected to the distribution system should also be strictly adhered to.  All potable water taken from shore should be chlorinated on loading to a sufficient concentration to ensure a residual free chlorine content of at least 0.2 ppm (0.2 mg/l). This concentration may be achieved by dosing in accordance with the guidelines contained in the International Medical Guide for Ships (See Chapter 6 – Appendix - # 201).

Issued by: Approved by: Date Issue Page HSEQ DEPARTMENT GENERAL MANAGER January 2017 0 8 of 17 SAFETY MANAGEMENT MANUAL According to IMO Resolution A.741(18), as amended – ISM Code SECTION 12.3 PROTECTION OF THE ENVIRONMENT 12.3.4.6 – Ship’s garbage receptacles (IMO – USDA) Garbage receptacles should be suitably marked. They should be constructed of non-combustible materials with no openings in the sides or bottom [SOLAS 74/78 – II-2/4.4.2], with the possible exception of the receptacles located in the galley and pantries [IMO MSC/Circ.1120 – 02.06.04]. All receptacles should be covered, leak proof and the ones located on open decks should be kept inside the railing [7 CFR 330.400(g)(1) & 9 CFR 94.5 (f)(1)]. As for the disposal of garbage in the waters and ports of the European Union, see the sub- seguent paragraph 12.3.6. 12.3.5 – AIR POLLUTION - MARPOL 74/78 - ANNEX VI Conformity of the vessel to the rules of the Convention is certified by the International Air Pollution Prevention Certificate (IAPP) issued by RINA on behalf of the administration, which must be carried by all ships (see Chapter 14, § 14.3). 12.3.5.1 – Ozone depleting substances (Regulation 12) Emissions of such substances, as defined in Regulation 2 – item (6), are prohibited because they cause serious damages to the ozone layer in the stratosphere surrounding the Earth and shielding it from the harmful ultraviolet (UV) solar rays. When removed from ships, such substances, as well as the equipment containing them, must be delivered to shore reception facilities. No machinery or equipment using ozone depleting substances exist on board the ships of the Com- pany’s fleet, and the use of such substances is formally prohibited. 12.3.5.2 – Exhaust gas 12.3.5.2(a) – Nitrogen Oxides (Regulation 13) Regulation 13 limits the content of Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) in the exhaust gases of diesel engines fitted on board the ships. Limits vary in accordance with the engine rated speed (rpm). As an information, they are comprised between 17.0 g/kWh for slow engines (<130 rpm), and 9.8 g/kWh for fast engines (>2000 rpm). Such limits are in force for all diesel engines with a power output of more than 130 kW, installed on ships constructed (keel laid) after 01.01.2000. The regulation does not apply to emergency gensets, motors fitted to survival craft and, as a general rule, to all engines intended to be used solely in case of emergency. The content of Nitrogen Oxides in the diesel engines exhaust gases depends on their technical characteristics. Each engine must be provided with the following documentation: • Engine International Air Pollution Prevention Certificate (EIAPP), issued by the Classification Society upon completion of the required assessments, together with the relevant technical file. • Record of settings and replacements of engine components. 12.3.5.2(b) – Sulphur Oxides Limits to the Sulphur content (% by mass) in the various types of fuel oil used on board have been extablished in order to reduce the release into the atmosphere of Sulphur Oxides (SOx) contained in the exhaust gases from diesel engines and boilers. Various sets of rules are presently in force on the subject, the most restrictive of which must always be observed: - Global (MARPOL/VI – Regulation 14) FRATELLI d’AMICO ARMATORI S.p.A. - ROMA

Issued by: Approved by: Date Issue Page HSEQ DEPARTMENT GENERAL MANAGER January 2017 0 9 of 17 SAFETY MANAGEMENT MANUAL According to IMO Resolution A.741(18), as amended – ISM Code SECTION 12.3 PROTECTION OF THE ENVIRONMENT Limits of sulphur content prescribed for all types of fuel: • Outside SECA/ECAs: 3.5%; • Inside SECA/ECAs: 0.1%. The sea area presently designated as emission control areas are: ⇒ SECA’s (SOx Emission Control Areas): - The Baltic Sea area, as defined in Annex I - regulation 1.11.2. - The North Sea area, as defined in Annex V - regulation 5(1)(f). ⇒ ECA (Emission Control Areas): - The North American area, as described by the coordinates provided in appendix VII to Annex VI. - EU (Directive 2012/33/EC) The maximum allowable sulphur content of fuel oil used by ships at beth in EU ports, other than those in the outermost regions (French Oversea Departments, the Azores, Madeira and the Canary Islands) will be 0.1% by mass (m/m). This covers all grades of fuel oil and all types of combustion machinery, including main and auxiliary boilers. At berth covers ships at anchor, on buoys or alongside, whether or not they are working cargo. Ships are not required to comply with the 0.1% m/m limit while manoeuvring. However, they must comply as soon as possible after arrival in port, and must continue to comply until as late as possible before departure. - California (CARB Marine Notice 2009-2) The following fuel requirements apply to ocean-going vessels main propulsion diesel engines, aux- iliary diesel engines and auxiliary boilers, when operating within the Emission Control Area (ECA) 24 nautical miles regulatory zone off the California coastline: • Marine Gas Oil (DMA) at or below 0.1% m/m sulphur content. • Marine Diesel Oil (DMB) at or below 0.1% m/m sulphur content. 12.3.5.2(c) - Changing fuel grade Ship-specific written procedures to control the change of fuel grade in use in order to comply with the above regulations are available on board. 12.3.5.3 – Gas from oil tankers cargo tanks 12.3.5.3(a) – Volatile organic compounds (VOC) (Regulation 15) In order to prevent or minimize as much as possible the release to the atmosphere of volatile organic compounds, directions contained in the ship's VOC Management Plan, requested by MARPOL 73/78 - VI/14.6 for tankers carrying crude oil, must be carefully followed (see Chapter 14 - § 14.5). Tankers operating at ports and terminals of Countries where VOC emissions are regulated, in ac- cordance with Protocol 1997, must be fitted with a vapour control system (VCS) approved by the Ad- ministration in accordance with the standards developed by IMO. 12.3.5.3(b) – Toxic gas [Company’s procedure] Some types of crude oils contain toxic substances, particularly: ◊ H2S – Hydrogen Sulphide ◊ C2H4O2S – Mercaptans (Mercaptoacetic acid). These substances may also be contained in other oil cargos, such as condensates, natural gaso- line, fuel oils. FRATELLI d’AMICO ARMATORI S.p.A. - ROMA

Issued by: Approved by: Date Issue Page HSEQ DEPARTMENT GENERAL MANAGER January 2017 0 10 of 17 SAFETY MANAGEMENT MANUAL According to IMO Resolution A.741(18), as amended – ISM Code SECTION 12.3 PROTECTION OF THE ENVIRONMENT Useful informations on toxicity of petroleum and associated substances may be found in ISGOTT – Chapter 2 - § 2.3. As a rule, the presence of such substances is indicated in the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) that the Shippers should deliver to the vessel before the beginning of loading operations (see Section 12.4 - § 12.4.1.1). At the end of discharge of these types of cargo, the inert gas/hydrocarbon gas mixture contained in the cargo tanks results rich in toxic gases released by such substances. Unless properly eliminated in the open sea, the toxic gas mixture would be vented into the atmosphere in the next loading port, caus- ing its pollution. Venting of such gases could happen even during discharge, when an excessive pres- sure of the inert gas delivered to the cargo tanks could cause their individual HV pressure-relief valves to open. Normally, the maximum allowed limit for toxic gases contained in the tanks intended to receive an oil cargo should not exceed their Long Term Permissibile Exposure Limit (PEL): ◊ H2S – Hydrosulphuric Acid = 5ppm (in volume) ◊ C2H4O2S – Mercaptans = 0,5 ppm (in volume). To avoid any pollution of the atmosphere in coastal areas, the following procedures must be ob- served on board: ⇒ LOADED PASSAGE AND FOLLOWING DISCHARGE OPERATIONS - If the cargo loaded has been declared by Shippers as containing toxic gases (MSDS), the ullage of all cargo tanks must be tested by gas-measuring tubes every two days, beginning on the first day after sailing from the loading port (every day in case the voyage lasts 5 days or less), in order to ascertain their quantity (in ppm). A final test shall be carried out on the last day before arrival at the discharging port. - First and final tests must be carried out in any case, even if the cargo loaded had been declared to be free from toxic gases. In case any such tests give a positive result, the cargo must be considered as containing toxic gases and all appropriate cautions and safety procedures must be observed and carried out. - Before arrival at the discharge port, IG pressure shall be reduced so to be able to safely gauge tanks and sample cargo through the specially fitted vapour locks, without any escape of gas to the atmosphere (ISGOTT - 11.8.3). - During discharge, IGS plant shall be properly set, and gas main and cargo tanks internal pressure shall be carefully watched to avoid exceeding the pressure-relief valves opening values.- COW, final stripping of cargo tanks and lines and their pumping ashore shall be particularly accurate, so to minimize the quantity of sediments, clingage and cargo residues remaining on board. ⇒ BALLAST PASSAGE - On the first day after sailing from a port where a cargo containing toxic gases has been discharged, the atmosphere of all cargo tanks shall be tested in order to ascertain the quantity of such gases (in ppm) still contained in them. - If the quantity of toxic gas exceeds its allowed limits, cargo tanks shall be purged by inert gas. Purging will be started immediately and its progress will be checked by frequent tests of the tanks atmosphere by means of gas-measuring tubes. - Once the measurements show that the quantity of toxic gas contained in the cargo tanks has fallen below its allowed limits, purging will be stopped. After which, all cargo tanks shall be tested for toxic gases every two days (every day in case the remaining passage time is 5 days or less). A final test shall be carried out on the last day before arrival at the following loading port. - First and final tests must be carried out in any case, even if the cargo carried had been declared, or resulted to be, free from toxic gases. In case any such tests give a positive result, the cargo should be considered as containing toxic gas, all appropriate cautions shall be observed and all safety procedures, including purging, shall be carried out.

Results of all tests carried out while at sea, together with details of any purging operation, shall be recorded in the Cargo Control Room Log Book - Part IV - Toxic Gases and shell be notified to the Chartering Department (NG) of the Company. All relevant messages and documentation shall be filed on board for not less then 3 years. 12.3.5.4 – Shipboard incineration (Regulation 16) Incinerators installed on board must be approved by the Administration in accordance with the standards developed by the IMO, as detailed in Appendix IV to this annex. Shipboard incineration of the following substances shall be prohibited: a) Cargo residues of substances listed in Annex I. b) PCB plastics. c) Garbage, as defined in Annex V, containing more than traces of heavy metals. d) Refined petroleum products containing halogen compounds. Shipboard incineration of sewage sludge and sludge oil generated during the normal operation of a ship may also take place in the main or auxiliary power plant or boilers, but in such cases, it shall not take place inside ports, harbours or estuaries. All ships with incinerators subject to this regulation shall possess a manufacturer’s operating man- ual which shall specify how to operate the incinerator within the limits described in paragraph (2) of Appendix IV. Personnel responsible for operation of any incinerator shall be trained and capable of implementing the guidance provided in the manufacturer’s operating manual. For the discharge or disposal of ashes generated by the incinerator, see the previous paragraph 12.3.4.1. Incineration of any kind of ship-generated waste is prohibited in the territorial seas of all Baltic Sea Coastal States (Helsinki Convention 1992). 12.3.5.5 – Fuel oil quality (Regulation 18) Fuel oil for combustion purposes delivered to and used on board the ships shall meet the require- ments defined in Regulation 18(1) and (2). Details of fuel oil delivered on board shall be recorded by means of a Bunker Delivery Note (BDN), issued by the Supplier, which shall contain at least the following informations, as listed in Appendix V to Annex VI: Name and IMO number of receiving ship. Port. Date of commencement of delivery. Name, address and telephone number of marine fuel supplier. Product name(s). Quantity (metric tons). 3 Density at 15°C (kg/m ) [ISO 3675]. Sulphur content (% m/m) [ISO 8754]. A declaration signed and certified by the fuel oil supplier’s representative that the fuel oil supplied is in conformity with Regulations 14(1) or (4)(a) and 18(1) of Annex VI. The BDN shall be kept on board the ship, readily accessible for inspection. It shall be retained for a period of at least three years since the fuel oil has been delivered on board.

(See § 12.3.5.4). 12.3.6.1 – Procedure (a) Notification At least 24 hours prior to arrival, the master shall notify the following information to the port authority, using the special Notification form:  Ship’s name, call sign, IMO number, flag.  Estimated time of arrival (ETA) and sailing (ETD).  Previous and next ports.  Last delivery of waste: Port and date.  Intention to: deliver all waste, - deliver some waste, - retain on board all waste;  For every tipe of waste and cargo residues: - amount to be delivered; - maximum dedicated storage capacity; - amount retained on board on sailing; - next intended delivery port; - estimated amount to be generated between notification and next port of call. A copy of Notification form must be sent to Marine Dept. and Charter Dept. (b) Delivery Before sailing, the ship shall deliver all ship-generated waste and cargo residues to the port recep- tion facilitiies. The ship may proceed to her next port of call without delivering the waste if it results from the information given before arrival that there is on board sufficient dedicated storage capacity for all waste and cargo residues that has been accumulated and will be accumulated during the intended voyage to the port of delivery. If there are good reasons to believe that adequate facilities are not available at the intended port of delivery, or if the ship’s destination port is unknown, the authority will force the ship to deliver its waste and cargo residues before departure from the port. 12.3.7 – BALLAST WATER CONTROL AND MANAGEMENT - IMO Resolution A.868(20) Studies carried out in various Countries have shown that many species of bacteria, plants and animals can survive in a viable form in the ballast water and sediments carried in ships, even after journeys of several month’s duration. Subsequent discharge of ballast water into port waters may result in the establishment of alien harmful acquatic organisms and pathogens which may pose threats to indigenous human, animal and plant life, and the marine environment. In order to prevent or minimize this form of biological pollution, several States, (among them Aus- tralia, Canada, Russia, U.S.A.) have issued special rules, to be observed by all ships calling their ports with water ballast on board. Practically, they should: FRATELLI d’AMICO ARMATORI S.p.A. - ROMA
