We are pleased to announce that today, 10 February 2010, we took delivery of MV Scandinavian Express, a 92,500 dwt post-panamax bulk carrier, built at Cosco Dalian Shipyard, China. Delivery took place at 16.28 hours, Dalian time. Scandinavian Express will enter into a seven-year time charter with Korea Line Corporation.

The vessel is the first in a series of four bulk carriers being built for us in Dalian. Her three sisters will be delivered in 2012.

The vessel flies the Panamanian flag and has a Chinese crew. Ship management has been entrusted to Fleet Management in Hong Kong.

We wish the vessel and her crew safe voyages.
