Future minimum revenue excludes revenue earned for the five vessels currently in pool arrangements and vessels that are currently on or will be on spot market-related time charters as spot rates cannot be estimated.

The rate will be based on 115% of the average of the daily rates of the BHSI, as reflected in daily reports. Hire will be paid every 15 days in advance net of a 5.00% third party brokerage commission. These vessels were acquired with existing time charters with below-market rates. As described in footnote 15, intangible liabilities will be amortized as an increase to voyage revenues over the minimum remaining terms of the applicable charters. Specifically, for the Genco Avra, Genco Ocean and Genco Bay, the daily amount of amortization associated with them will be approximately $350, $700 and $750 per day over the actual cash rate earned, respectively.
