The purpose of this Article FIVE is to limit the ownership and control of the Corporation byNon-U.S. Citizens to ensure that the Corporation remains qualified to own and operate vessels engaged in coastwise trade as a U.S. Citizen under the Maritime Laws. At no time shallNon-U.S. Citizens, individually or in the aggregate, be permitted to Own greater than the Permitted Percentage of any class of capital stock of the Corporation (“Shares”). If at any timeNon-U.S. Citizens, individually or in the aggregate, become the Owners of more than the Permitted Percentage of any class of Shares, the Corporation shall have the power to take the actions prescribed in paragraphs 4, 5 and 6 of this Article FIVE. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Preferred Stock Designation for any series of Preferred Stock authorized in accordance with Article FOUR may provide that such series of Preferred Stock is excluded from the restrictions set forth in, and the application of, this Article FIVE.
3. Implementation. The Corporation is authorized to effect any and all measures and to make any and all determinations reasonably necessary or desirable (consistent with Applicable Laws and this Restated Certificate of Incorporation) to fulfill the purpose and implement the provisions of this Article FIVE, including without limitation: (a) requiring one or more Owner(s) of Shares to confirm his, her or its citizenship status and/or to provide citizenship certificates or other reasonable evidence of his, her or its citizenship status from time to time, and suspending voting, dividend and other distribution rights with respect to any Shares held by such Owner(s) until such confirmation and/or evidence is received; (b) maintaining the share transfer records of the Corporation in such a manner so that the percentage of any class of Shares that is Owned by U.S. Citizens and byNon-U.S. Citizens can be determined and confirmed; (c) obtaining, as a condition precedent to the transfer on the records of the Corporation, representations, citizenship certificates and/or other evidence as to the identity and citizenship status from all transferees (and from any recipient upon original issuance) of any Shares and, if such transferee (or recipient) is acting as a fiduciary or nominee for another Owner, such other Owner, and the registration of transfer (or original issuance) shall be denied upon refusal of such transferee (or recipient) to make such representations and/or furnish such citizenship certificates or other evidence; (d) recording in the share records of the Corporation and/or on registrations of transfer (or original issue) whether or not the Owner(s) of each issued and outstanding Share is a U.S. Citizen. The Corporation is authorized to take such other ministerial actions or make such interpretations as it may deem necessary or advisable in order to implement the purpose and the policy set forth in paragraph 2 of this Article FIVE.
4. Restrictions on Transfer. Any transfer, or attempted transfer, of any Share(s), the effect of which would be to cause one or moreNon-U.S. Citizens, individually or in the aggregate, to Own Shares of any class of capital stock in excess of the Permitted Percentage, shall be void and ineffective as against the Corporation, and neither the Corporation nor its transfer agent or registrar shall be required to (a) register such transfer or purported transfer on the share records of the Corporation or (b) recognize the transferee or purported transferee thereof as a stockholder of the Corporation for any purpose whatsoever except to the extent necessary to effect any remedy available to the Corporation pursuant to this Article FIVE.

5. Suspension of Voting, Dividend and Other Distribution Rights ofNon-U.S. Citizen Owned Shares. If on any date (including any record date), the number of Shares of any class of capital stock that is Owned, individually or in the aggregate, byNon-U.S. Citizens is in excess of the Permitted Percentage (such Shares owned byNon-U.S. Citizens in excess of the Permitted Percentage are referred to in this Restated Certificate of Incorporation as the “Excess Shares”), the Corporation shall determine which Shares Owned byNon-U.S. Citizens constitute the Excess Shares. The determination shall be made by reference to the date or dates that the Shares were acquired byNon-U.S. Citizens, starting with the most recent acquisition of Shares by aNon-U.S. Citizen and including, in reverse chronological order of acquisition, all other acquisitions of Shares of the same class byNon-U.S. Citizens from and after the acquisition of the Shares that first caused the Permitted Percentage to be exceeded. The determination of the Corporation as to which Shares constitute Excess Shares shall be conclusive. Shares deemed to constitute Excess Shares shall (so long as such excess exists) not be accorded any voting rights and shall not be deemed to be outstanding for purposes of determining the vote required on any matter brought before the stockholders of the Corporation for a vote thereon. The Corporation shall (so long as such excess exists) withhold the payment of dividends, if any, and the sharing in any other distribution (upon liquidation or otherwise) in respect of Excess Shares. At such time as the Permitted Percentage is no longer exceeded, full voting, dividend and other distribution rights shall be restored to any Shares previously deemed to be Excess Shares that are no longer Excess Shares, and any dividend or other distribution with respect to such Shares that has been withheld shall be due and payable, without interest thereon, solely to the record holders of such Shares within a reasonable time after the Permitted Percentage is no longer exceeded.
6. Redemption of Excess Shares. The Corporation shall have the power, but no obligation, to redeem any Excess Shares subject to the following terms and conditions:
(a) the Corporation shall pay a redemption price per share for the Excess Shares to be redeemed equal to the sum of (i) the Fair Market Value of one Share of the same class on the date that the Excess Shares are called for redemption and (ii) the amount of any dividend or other distribution declared with respect to such Excess Shares prior to the date that they are called for redemption hereunder but which has been withheld by the Corporation pursuant to paragraph 5 of this Article FIVE, without interest thereon;
(b) the redemption price shall be paid in U.S. Dollars;
(c) the Corporation shall give a notice of redemption by first class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not less than ten (10) calendar days prior to the redemption date to each holder of record of the Excess Shares to be redeemed, at such holder’s address as the same appears on the share transfer records of the Corporation (or, in the absence of such address in the transfer records of the Corporation, at such other address as the Corporation may determine in its sole discretion). Each such notice shall state (i) the redemption date, (ii) the number of Excess Shares to be redeemed from such holder, (iii) the redemption price per Excess Share and the manner of payment thereof; and (iv) that dividends and other distributions, if any, on the Excess Shares to be redeemed will cease to accrue on such redemption date;
(d) from and after the redemption date and upon payment by the Corporation of the redemption price, dividends and other distributions, if any, on the Excess Shares called for redemption shall cease to accrue and such Shares shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding and all rights of the holders thereof as stockholders of the Corporation shall cease; and
6
(e) such other terms and conditions as the Board may determine in its sole discretion.
7. Citizenship of Officers and Directors. At no time shall (a) more than the minority of the number of Directors of the Corporation necessary to constitute a quorum of Directors for a meeting beNon-U.S. Citizens or (b) the Chairman of the Board or Chief Executive Officer (by whatever title) of the Corporation be aNon-U.S. Citizen.
8. NYSE Transactions. Nothing in this Article FIVE shall preclude the settlement of any transaction entered into through the facilities of the NYSE or any other national securities exchange (then registered as such pursuant to section 6 of the Exchange Act) or automated inter-dealer quotation system for so long as any class or series of the capital stock of the Corporation is listed on the NYSE or on such exchange or traded through such system. The fact that the settlement of any transaction occurs shall not negate the effect of any provision of this Article FIVE and any transferee in such a transaction shall be subject to all of the provisions and limitations set forth in this Article FIVE.
9. Severability. Each provision of this Article FIVE is intended to be severable from every other provision. If any one or more of the provisions contained in this Article FIVE is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality or enforceability of any other provision of this Article FIVE or this Restated Certificate of Incorporation shall not be affected, and such other provisions shall be construed as if the provisions held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable had been reformed to the extent required to be valid, legal and enforceable.
ARTICLE SIX
BOARD OF DIRECTORS
1. Authority of the Board. The business and affairs of the Corporation will be managed by or under the direction of the Board. In addition to the authority and powers conferred on the Board by the DGCL or by the other provisions of this Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the Board hereby is authorized and empowered to exercise all such powers and do all such acts and things as may be exercised or done by the Corporation, subject to the provisions of the DGCL, this Restated Certificate of Incorporation, any Preferred Stock Designation and any Bylaws of the Corporation;provided, however, that no Bylaws hereafter adopted, or any amendments thereto, will invalidate any prior act of the Board that would have been valid if such Bylaws or amendment had not been adopted.
2. Number of Directors. The number of Directors which will constitute the whole Board shall be fixed from time to time exclusively by, and may be increased or decreased from time to time exclusively by, the affirmative vote of a majority of the Directors then in office (subject to such rights of holders of a series of shares of Preferred Stock to elect one or more Directors pursuant to any provisions contained in any Preferred Stock Designation), but in any event will not be less than three (3) or greater than twelve (12). In the event of any change in the authorized number of Directors, each Director then continuing to serve as such shall nevertheless continue as a Director of the class of which he or she is a member until the expiration of his or her current term, or the earlier of his or her death, resignation or removal. The Board shall specify the class to which a newly created directorship shall be allocated.
7
3. Classification and Terms of Directors. The Directors (other than those Directors, if any, elected by the holders of any series of Preferred Stock pursuant to the Preferred Stock Designation for such series of Preferred Stock, voting separately as a class), will be divided into three classes as nearly equal in size as practicable: Class I, Class II and Class III. Each Director will serve for a three year term expiring on the date of the third annual meeting of stockholders of the Corporation following the annual meeting of stockholders at which that Director was elected;provided, however, that the Directors first designated as Class I Directors will serve for a term expiring on the date of the annual meeting of stockholders next following the end of the calendar year 2011, the Directors first designated as Class II Directors will serve for a term expiring on the date of the annual meeting of stockholders next following the end of the calendar year 2012, and the Directors first designated as Class III Directors will serve for a term expiring on the date of the annual meeting of stockholders next following the end of the calendar year 2013. Each Director will hold office until the annual meeting of stockholders at which that Director’s term expires and, the foregoing notwithstanding, serve until his or her successor shall have been duly elected and qualified or until his or her earlier death, resignation or removal. Any Director elected by the holders of a series of Preferred Stock will be elected for the term set forth in the applicable Preferred Stock Designation.
4. Election and Succession of Directors. Election of Directors need not be by written ballot unless the Bylaws of the Corporation so provide. At each annual election, the Directors chosen to succeed those whose terms then expire will be of the same class as the Directors they succeed, unless, by reason of any intervening changes in the authorized number of Directors, the Board shall have designated one or more directorships whose term then expires as directorships of another class in order to more nearly achieve equality of number of Directors among the classes.
5. Removal of Directors. Subject to the rights, if any, of holders of Preferred Stock as set forth in any applicable Preferred Stock Designation, Directors of the Corporation may be removed from office only (a) by the Court of Chancery pursuant to Section 225(c) of the DGCL or (b) for cause by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least eighty percent (80%) of the voting power of all then outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation generally entitled to vote in the election of Directors, voting together as a single class. Except as Applicable Laws otherwise provide, “cause” for the removal of a Director will be deemed to exist only if the Director whose removal is proposed: (i) has been convicted, or has been granted immunity to testify in any proceeding in which another has been convicted, of a felony by a court of competent jurisdiction and that conviction is no longer subject to direct appeal; (ii) has been found to have been grossly negligent or guilty of misconduct in the performance of his or her duties to the Corporation in any matter of substantial importance to the Corporation by a court of competent jurisdiction; or (iii) has been adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction to be mentally incompetent, which mental incompetency directly affects his or her ability to serve as a Director of the Corporation.
6. Vacancies. Subject to the rights, if any, of holders of Preferred Stock as set forth in any Preferred Stock Designation, newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the number of Directors and any vacancies on the Board resulting from death, resignation, removal or other cause will be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of the Directors remaining in office even if they represent less than a quorum of the Board, or by the sole remaining Director if
8
only one Director remains in office. Any Director elected in accordance with the preceding sentence will hold office for the remainder of the full term of the class of Directors in which the new directorship was created or the vacancy occurred and until that Director’s successor shall have been elected and qualified or until his or her earlier death, resignation or removal. Except as a Preferred Stock Designation may provide otherwise with respect to a Director elected pursuant such Preferred Stock Designation, no decrease in the number of Directors constituting the Board will shorten the term of any incumbent Director.
ARTICLE SEVEN
BYLAWS
The Board shall have the power to adopt, amend, repeal or restate the Bylaws of the Corporation. Any adoption, amendment, repeal or restatement of the Bylaws of the Corporation by the Board shall require the approval of a majority of the Directors then in office. The stockholders shall also have the power to adopt, amend, repeal or restate the Bylaws of the Corporation at any meeting of stockholders before which such matter has been properly brought in accordance with the Bylaws of the Corporation;provided, however, that, except for any amendment, repeal or restatement approved by the majority of the Directors then in office, in addition to any vote of the holders of any class or series of capital stock of the Corporation required by Applicable Laws or by this Certificate of Incorporation, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of all then outstanding shares of the capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of Directors, voting together as a single class, shall be required to adopt, amend, repeal or restate any provision of the Bylaws of the Corporation.
ARTICLE EIGHT
AMENDMENTS OF THIS RESTATED CERTIFICATE
Notwithstanding anything in this Restated Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws of the Corporation to the contrary, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least eighty percent (80%) of the voting power of all then outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of Directors, voting together as a single class, shall be required to alter, amend, repeal or restate any provision of this Restated Certificate of Incorporation;provided, however, that if any such alteration, amendment, repeal or restatement (except any alteration, amendment, repeal or restatement of Article SIX, this Article EIGHT or Article NINE) has been approved by the majority of the Directors then in office, then the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of all then outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of Directors, voting together as a single class, will be sufficient to adopt such alteration, amendment, repeal or restatement. Any alteration, amendment, repeal or restatement to Article SIX, this Article EIGHT or Article NINE shall require the affirmative vote of the holders of at least eighty percent (80%) of the voting power of all then outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of Directors, voting together as a single class, regardless of whether or not such alteration, amendment, repeal or restatement is approved by the majority of the Directors then in office.
9
ARTICLE NINE
NO STOCKHOLDER ACTION BY WRITTEN CONSENT
From and after the first date as of which the Corporation has a class or series of capital stock required to be registered under the Exchange Act, and subject to the rights, if any, of holders of Preferred Stock as set forth in a Preferred Stock Designation, any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of the Corporation must be effected at an annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Corporation and may not be effected by any consent in writing by those stockholders.
ARTICLE TEN
PERSONAL LIABILITY OF DIRECTORS LIMITED
No Director of the Corporation shall be personally liable to the Corporation or any of its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a Director;provided, however, that the foregoing provision will not eliminate or limit the liability of a Director (a) for any breach of that Director’s duty of loyalty to the Corporation or its stockholders, (b) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (c) pursuant to section 174 of the DGCL, as the same exists or as that provision hereafter may be amended or modified from time to time, or (d) for any transactions from which that Director derived an improper personal benefit. If the DGCL is amended or modified after the filing of this Restated Certificate of Incorporation to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of Directors, then the liability of a Director, in addition to the limitation on personal liability provided in this Restated Certificate of Incorporation, will be limited to the fullest extent permitted by that law, as so amended or modified. Any repeal or modification of this Article TEN by the stockholders of the Corporation will be prospective only and will not have any effect on the liability or alleged liability of a Director arising out of or related to any event, act or omission that occurred prior to such repeal or modification.
ARTICLE ELEVEN
COMPROMISE OR ARRANGEMENT WITH CREDITORS OR STOCKHOLDERS
Whenever a compromise or arrangement is proposed between the Corporation and its creditors or any class of them or between the Corporation and its stockholders or any class of them, any court of equitable jurisdiction within the State of Delaware may, on the application in a summary way of the Corporation or of any creditor or stockholder thereof, or on the application of any receiver or receivers appointed for the Corporation pursuant to section 291 of the DGCL, or on the application of trustees in dissolution or of any receiver or receivers appointed for the Corporation pursuant to section 279 of the DGCL, order a meeting of the creditors or class of creditors or of the stockholders or class of stockholders of the Corporation, as the case may be, to be summoned in such manner as such court directs. If the majority in number representing three-fourths in value of the creditors or class of creditors, or of the stockholders or class of stockholders, of the Corporation, as the case may be, agree to any compromise or arrangement and to any reorganization of the Corporation as a consequence of that compromise or arrangement, such compromise or arrangement and such reorganization, if sanctioned by the court to which such application has been made, will be binding on all the creditors or class of creditors, or on all the stockholders or class of stockholders, of the Corporation, as the case may be, and also on the Corporation.
