NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICY

The condensed consolidated financial information for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 has been prepared by the Company and has not been audited by its independent registered public accounting firm. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SEACOR Holdings Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made to fairly present the Company’s financial position as of March 31, 2012, its results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, its comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, its changes in equity for the three months ended March 31, 2012, and its cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011. Results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of operating results for the full year or any future periods.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

Unless the context otherwise indicates, any reference in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to the “Company” refers to SEACOR Holdings Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries and any reference in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to “SEACOR” refers to SEACOR Holdings Inc.

Discontinued Operations. On March 16, 2012, the Company sold certain companies and assets of its Environmental Services business segment for a net sales price of $99.9 million and recognized a gain of $20.7 million, net of tax, or $0.99 per diluted share. The Company has no continuing involvement in the business sold, although the sales agreement provides that the Company may receive contingent consideration equal to a portion of the revenue generated by any extraordinary oil spill response that occurs within three years following the date of sale. As a result, the Company has reported, for all periods presented, the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the sold business as discontinued operations in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. The remaining business in the segment was renamed Emergency and Crisis Services.

Revenue Recognition. The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned. Revenue is realized or realizable and earned when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. Revenue that does not meet these criteria is deferred until the criteria are met. Deferred revenues, included in other current liabilities, for the three months ended March 31 were as follows (in thousands):

	2012			2011
Balance at beginning of period	$	9,968		$	21,045
Revenues deferred during the period	4,050			263
Revenues recognized during the period	(4,700		)	(2,554		)
Balance at end of period	$	9,318		$	18,754

As of March 31, 2012, deferred revenues included $6.3 million relating to the time charter of several offshore support vessels operating in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico that are scheduled to be paid through the conveyance of a limited net profit interest in developmental oil and gas producing properties owned by a customer. Payments from the conveyance of the limited net profit interest, and the timing of such payments, are contingent upon production and energy sale prices. Based on the current production payout estimate, the deferred revenues are expected to be paid through mid-2012. The Company expects to defer an additional $0.8 million of vessel charter hire under this arrangement through December 2012. The Company will continue to recognize revenues as cash is received or earlier should future payments become determinable. All costs and expenses related to these charters were recognized as incurred.

6

As of March 31, 2012, deferred revenues also included $2.8 million related to contract-lease revenues for certain helicopters leased by Aviation Services to Aeroleo Taxi Aero S/A ("Aeroleo"), its Brazilian joint venture (see Note 6). The deferral resulted from difficulties experienced by Aeroleo following one of its customer's cancellation of certain contracts for a number of AW139 aircraft under contract-lease from Aviation Services. The Company will recognize revenues as cash is received or earlier should future collectability become reasonably assured. All costs and expenses related to these contract-leases were recognized as incurred.

Reclassifications. Certain reclassifications of prior period information have been made to conform to the presentation of the current period information. These reclassifications had no effect on net income as previously reported.

2. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The fair value of an asset or liability is the price that would be received to sell an asset or transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Company utilizes a fair value hierarchy that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value and defines three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, or inputs derived from observable market data. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The Company’s financial assets and liabilities as of March 31, 2012 that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis were as follows (in thousands):

	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
ASSETS
Marketable securities(1)	$	30,563	$	38,023	$	—
Derivative instruments (included in other receivables)	319		2,040		—
Construction reserve funds and Title XI reserve funds	259,926		—		—
LIABILITIES
Short sale of marketable securities (included in other current liabilities)	24,761		—		—
Derivative instruments (included in other current liabilities)	3,011		8,154		—

 ______________________

(1) Marketable security gains (losses), net include gains of $2.6 million and losses of $3.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, related to marketable security positions held by the Company as of March 31, 2012.

As of March 31, 2012, the Company's Level 2 marketable securities included a $33.1 million investment in 9.25% Senior Secured Notes (the “Notes”) due from Trailer Bridge, Inc. (“Trailer Bridge”). The Company held a 50.9% interest in the total outstanding Notes. Trailer Bridge filed for bankruptcy under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in United States Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Florida (the “Bankruptcy Court”) on November 16, 2011. On March 16, 2012, the Bankruptcy court confirmed Trailer Bridge's second amended restructuring plan, which provided for a majority of the Note holders, including the Company, to receive a pro rata share of a new $65.0 million debt instrument and a pro rata share of at least 91% of the equity interest in the newly restructured company. Existing common shareholders had the option to receive a 9% equity interest in the newly restructured company or a cash payment of $0.15 per share. The restructuring plan was implemented on April 2, 2012 resulting in the Company obtaining a 47.3% ownership interest in the newly restructured company after the exercise of the existing common shareholders' option.

7

The estimated fair value of the Company’s other financial assets and liabilities as of March 31, 2012 were as follows (in thousands):

			Estimated Fair Value
	Carrying Amount		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
ASSETS
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash	$	307,935	$	307,935	$	—	$	—
Investments, at cost, in 50% or less owned companies (included in other assets)	9,315		see below
Notes receivable from other business ventures (included in other receivables and other assets)	57,054		see below
LIABILITIES
Long-term debt, including current portion	998,950		—		1,028,047		—

The carrying value of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash approximates fair value. The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt was estimated based upon quoted market prices or by using discounted cash flow analyses based on estimated current rates for similar types of arrangements. It was not practicable to estimate the fair value of the Company’s investments, at cost, in 50% or less owned companies because of the lack of quoted market prices and the inability to estimate fair value without incurring excessive costs. It was not practicable to estimate the fair value of the Company’s notes receivable from other business ventures as the overall returns are uncertain due to certain provisions for additional payments contingent upon future events. Considerable judgment was required in developing certain of the estimates of fair value and, accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize in a current market exchange.

The Company’s non-financial assets and liabilities that were measured at fair value during the three months ended March 31, 2012 were as follows (in thousands):

	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
ASSETS
Investment in Illinois Corn Processing LLC(1)	$	—	$	30,916	$	—

 ______________________

(1) During the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company marked its equity investment in its Illinois Corn Processing LLC ("ICP") joint venture to fair value following the acquisition of a controlling interest (see Note 6). The investment's fair value was determined based on a fair value analysis of the assets and liabilities of ICP.

3. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING STRATEGIES

Derivative instruments are classified as either assets or liabilities based on their individual fair values. Derivative assets and liabilities are included in other receivables and other current liabilities, respectively, in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. The fair values of the Company’s derivative instruments as of March 31, 2012 were as follows (in thousands):

	Derivative Asset		Derivative Liability
Derivatives designated as hedging instruments:
Interest rate swap agreements (cash flow hedges)	$	—	$	4,681

Fair Value Hedges. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company utilized forward currency exchange contracts designated as fair value hedges to fix a portion of its euro-denominated capital commitments in U.S. dollars to protect against currency fluctuations. As of March 31, 2012, there were no forward currency exchange contracts designated as fair value hedges.

The Company recognized gains (losses) on derivative instruments designated as fair value hedges for the three months ended March 31 as follows (in thousands):

	Derivative losses, net

Cash Flow Hedges. As of March 31, 2012, the Company is a party to various interest rate swap agreements, with maturities ranging from 2013 to 2014, which have been designated as cash flow hedges. These agreements call for the Company to pay fixed interest rates ranging from 2.25% to 2.85% on aggregate notional values of $125.0 million and receive a variable interest rate based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) on these notional values. As of March 31, 2012, one of the Company’s Offshore Marine Services 50% or less owned companies had an interest rate swap agreement maturing in 2015 that has been designated as a cash flow hedge. This instrument calls for the joint venture to pay a fixed interest rate of 1.48% on the amortized notional value of $19.2 million and receive a variable interest rate based on LIBOR on the amortized notional value. In addition, as of March 31, 2012, one of the Company’s Inland River Services 50% or less owned companies had four interest rate swap agreements with maturities ranging from 2013 to 2015 that have been designated as cash flow hedges. These instruments call for the joint venture to pay fixed rates of interest ranging from 1.53% to 4.16% on the aggregate amortized notional value of $53.7 million and receive a variable interest rate based on LIBOR on the aggregate amortized notional value. By entering into these interest rate swap agreements, the Company and its joint ventures have converted the variable LIBOR component of certain of their outstanding borrowings to a fixed interest rate.

The Company recognized gains (losses) on derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges for the three months ended March 31 as follows (in thousands):

The Company holds positions in publicly traded equity options that convey the right or obligation to engage in a future transaction on the underlying equity security or index. The Company’s investment in equity options primarily includes positions in energy, marine, transportation and other related businesses. These contracts are typically entered into to mitigate the risk of changes in the market value of marketable security positions that the Company is either about to acquire, has acquired or is about to dispose of.

The Company enters and settles forward currency exchange, option and future contracts with respect to various foreign currencies. As of March 31, 2012, the outstanding forward currency exchange contracts translated into a net purchase of foreign currencies with an aggregate U.S. dollar equivalent of $47.9 million. These contracts enable the Company to buy currencies in the future at fixed exchange rates, which could offset possible consequences of changes in currency exchange rates with respect to the Company’s business conducted outside of the United States. The Company generally does not enter into contracts with forward settlement dates beyond twelve to eighteen months.

The Company has entered into various interest rate swap agreements with maturities ranging from 2012 through 2015 that call for the Company to pay fixed interest rates ranging from 1.67% to 2.59% on aggregate amortized notional values of $94.5 million and receive a variable interest rate based on LIBOR on these notional values. In addition, one of the Company’s Offshore Marine Services 50% or less owned companies has entered into an interest rate swap agreement maturing in 2014 that calls for the joint venture to pay a fixed interest rate of 3.05% on the amortized notional value of $25.2 million and receive a variable interest rate based on LIBOR on the amortized notional value. The general purpose of these interest rate swap agreements is to provide protection against increases in interest rates, which might lead to higher interest costs for the Company or its joint venture.

The Company enters and settles positions in various exchange and non-exchange traded commodity swap, option and future contracts. In the Company’s commodity trading and logistics business, fixed price future purchase and sale contracts for ethanol and sugar are included in the Company’s non-exchange traded derivative positions. The Company enters into exchange traded positions to protect these purchase and sale contracts as well as its inventory balances from market changes. As of March 31, 2012, the net market exposure to ethanol and sugar under these contracts was not material. The Company also enters into exchange traded positions (primarily natural gas, heating oil, crude oil, gasoline, ethanol and sugar) to provide value to the Company should there be a sustained decline in the price of commodities that could lead to a reduction in the market values and cash flows of the Company’s Offshore Marine Services and Inland River Services businesses. As of March 31, 2012, these positions were not material.

The Company enters and settles various positions in U.S. Treasury notes and bonds through rate locks, futures or options on futures tied to U.S. Treasury notes. The general purpose of these transactions is to provide value to the Company should the price of U.S. Treasury notes and bonds decline, leading to generally higher interest rates, which might lead to higher interest costs for the Company. As of March 31, 2012, there were none of these types of positions outstanding.

5. EQUIPMENT ACQUISITIONS, DISPOSITIONS AND DEPRECIATION AND IMPAIRMENT POLICIES

During the three months ended March 31, 2012, capital expenditures were $119.6 million. Equipment deliveries during the period included one offshore support vessel, one wind farm utility vessel, three inland river dry cargo barges and seven helicopters.

During the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company sold one offshore support vessel, one helicopter, one inland river towboat and other equipment for net proceeds of $5.8 million and gains of $4.5 million, all of which was recognized currently.

11

From time to time, the Company enters into vessel sale-leaseback transactions with finance companies, provides seller financing on sales of its vessels to third parties and sells vessels, helicopters and barges to its 50% or less owned companies. A portion of the gains realized from these transactions may be deferred and recorded in deferred gains and other liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Deferred gain activity related to these transactions for the three months ended March 31 was as follows (in thousands):

	2012			2011
Balance at beginning of period	$	119,570		$	131,836
Amortization of deferred gains included in operating expenses as a reduction to rental expense	(4,925		)	(5,596		)
Amortization of deferred gains included in gains on asset dispositions and impairments, net	(1,064		)	(1,074		)
Balance at end of period	$	113,581		$	125,166

Equipment, stated at cost, is depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset to an estimated salvage value. With respect to each class of asset, the estimated useful life is based upon a newly built asset being placed into service and represents the point at which it is typically not justifiable for the Company to continue to operate the asset in the same or similar manner. From time to time, the Company may acquire older assets that have already exceeded the Company’s useful life policy, in which case the Company depreciates such assets based on its best estimate of remaining useful life, typically the next survey or certification date.

As of March 31, 2012, the estimated useful life (in years) of each of the Company’s major categories of new equipment was as follows:

Offshore support vessels	20
Helicopters(1)	15
Inland river dry cargo and deck barges	20
Inland river liquid tank barges	25
Inland river towboats	25
U.S.-flag tankers	25
RORO vessels	20
Harbor and offshore tugs	25
Ocean liquid tank barges	25

______________________ 

(1) Effective July 1, 2011, the Company changed its estimated useful life and salvage value for helicopters from 12 to 15 years and 30% to 40%, respectively, due to improvements in new aircraft models that continue to increase their long-term value and make them viable for operation over a longer period of time. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, the change in estimate increased operating income by $3.9 million, net income by $2.6 million, and basic and diluted earnings per share by $0.12.

The Company performs an impairment analysis of long-lived assets used in operations, including intangible assets, when indicators of impairment are present. If the carrying value of the assets is not recoverable, as determined by the estimated undiscounted cash flows, the carrying value of the assets is reduced to fair value. Generally, fair value is determined using valuation techniques, such as expected discounted cash flows or appraisals, as appropriate. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, impairment charges recognized by the Company related to long-lived assets held for use were not material.

6. INVESTMENTS, AT EQUITY, AND ADVANCES TO 50% OR LESS OWNED COMPANIES

Illinois Corn Processing. In January 2012, the Company and its partner each made a capital contribution of $0.5 million. On February 1, 2012, the Company obtained a 70% controlling interest in ICP through its acquisition of a portion of its partner’s interest for $9.1 million in cash (see Note 4). Upon the acquisition, the Company adjusted its investment in ICP to fair value resulting in the recognition of a gain of $6.0 million, net of tax, which is included in equity in earnings in 50% or less owned companies in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income. During the month ended January 31, 2012, the Company made net advances of $0.3 million under its revolving line of credit.

12

Aeroleo. On March 1, 2012, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $5.9 million, net of tax, on its investment in and advances to Aeroleo. The impairment charge resulted from difficulties experienced by Aeroleo following one of its customer's cancellation of certain contracts for a number of AW139 aircraft under contract-lease from Aviation Services.

Hawker Pacific. The Company's Hawker Pacific joint venture is an aviation sales and support organization and a distributor of aviation components. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company advanced $3.3 million to Hawker Pacific. The advance bears interest at 10.0% per annum and matures on December 31, 2012, or earlier if a qualified refinancing occurs. As of March 31, 2012, the Company had an outstanding loan totaling $3.3 million inclusive of accrued interest.

Avion Pacific Limited. Avion Pacific Limited (“Avion”) is a joint venture that distributes aircraft and aircraft-related parts in Asia. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company made advances of $9.0 million to Avion and received repayments of $2.1 million. As of March 31, 2012, the Company had outstanding loans to Avion totaling $16.7 million inclusive of accrued interest.

SCFCo Holdings. SCFCo Holdings LLC (“SCFCo”) was established to operate towboats and dry cargo barges on the Parana-Paraguay Rivers and a terminal facility at Port Ibicuy, Argentina. At various times, SCFCo has agreed to expand its operations through additional capital contributions and bank financing. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company and its partner each contributed additional capital of $0.5 million.

Guarantees. The Company has guaranteed the payment of amounts owed by one of its joint ventures under a vessel charter agreement that expires in 2012. In addition, the Company has guaranteed amounts owed under banking facilities by certain of its joint ventures. As of March 31, 2012, the total amount guaranteed by the Company under these arrangements was $24.0 million. In addition, as of March 31, 2012, the Company had uncalled capital commitments to two of its joint ventures for a total of $2.6 million.

7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

As of March 31, 2012, the Company’s unfunded capital commitments consisted primarily of offshore support vessels, helicopters, inland river tank barges, an interest in a dry-bulk articulated tug-barge, an interest in a river grain terminal and other property and equipment. These commitments totaled $343.0 million, of which $157.7 million is payable during the remainder of 2012 with the balance payable through 2016. Of the total unfunded capital commitments, $44.9 million may be terminated without further liability other than the payment of liquidated damages of $1.4 million.

On August 19, 2011, the Company granted two fixed price purchase options to an unrelated third party to acquire up to 25% of the outstanding common stock of O'Brien's Response Management Inc. ("O'Brien's"), the Company's Emergency and Crisis Services business segment. The first option to acquire a 12.5% interest may be exercised beginning August 19, 2012 through August 19, 2014. If the first option is exercised, the second option to acquire an additional 12.5% may be exercised beginning August 19, 2013 through August 19, 2015.

On June 12, 2009, a purported civil class action was filed against the Company, Era Group Inc., Era Helicopters LLC and three other defendants (collectively, the “Defendants”) in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware, Superior Offshore International, Inc. v. Bristow Group Inc., et al., No. 09-CV-438 (D. Del.).  The Complaint alleges that the Defendants violated federal antitrust law by conspiring with each other to raise, fix, maintain or stabilize prices for offshore helicopter services in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico during the period January 2001 to December 2005.  The purported class of plaintiffs includes all direct purchasers of such services and the relief sought includes compensatory damages and treble damages.  The Company believes that the claims set forth in the Complaint are without merit and intends to vigorously defend the action.  On September 4, 2009, the Defendants filed a motion to dismiss the Complaint.  On September 14, 2010, the Court entered an order dismissing the Complaint.  On September 28, 2010, the plaintiffs filed a motion for reconsideration and amendment and a motion for re-argument (the “Motions”).  On November 30, 2010, the Court granted the Motions, amended the Court's September 14, 2010 Order to clarify that the dismissal was without prejudice, permitted the filing of an amended Complaint, and authorized limited discovery with respect to the new allegations in the amended Complaint.  Following the completion of such limited discovery, on February 11, 2011, the Defendants filed a motion for summary judgment to dismiss the amended Complaint with prejudice.  On June 23, 2011, the Court granted summary judgment for the Defendants.  On July 22, 2011, the plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit.  On August 9, 2011, Defendants moved for certain excessive costs, expenses, and attorneys' fees under 28 U.S.C. § 1927. That motion is fully briefed and a decision is pending. On October 11, 2011, the plaintiffs filed their opening appeal brief with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit. That motion was fully briefed and oral argument completed on March 20, 2012. The Company is unable to estimate the potential exposure, if any, resulting from these claims but

13

believes they are without merit and will continue to vigorously defend the action.

On July 14, 2010, a group of individuals and entities purporting to represent a class commenced a civil action in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana, Terry G. Robin, et al. v. Seacor Marine, L.L.C., et al., No. 2:10-cv-01986 (E.D. La.) (the “Robin Case”), in which they assert that support vessels, including vessels owned by the Company, responding to the explosion and resulting fire that occurred aboard the semi-submersible drilling rig, the Deepwater Horizon, were negligent in their efforts to save lives and put out the fire and contributed to the sinking of the Deepwater Horizon and subsequent oil spill. The action now is part of the overall multi-district litigation, In re Oil Spill by the Oil Rig “Deepwater Horizon”, MDL No. 2179 (“MDL”). The complaint seeks compensatory, punitive, exemplary, and other damages.  In response to this lawsuit, the Company filed petitions seeking exoneration from, or limitation of liability in relation to, any actions that may have been taken by vessels owned by the Company to extinguish the fire.  Pursuant to the Limitation of Liability Act, those petitions imposed an automatic stay on the Robin Case, and the court set a deadline of April 20, 2011 for individual claimants to assert claims in the limitation cases.  Approximately 66 claims were submitted by the deadline in all of the limitation actions.  On June 8, 2011, the Company moved to dismiss these claims (with the exception of one claim filed by a Company employee) on various legal grounds.  On October 12, 2011, the Court granted the Company's motion to dismiss in its entirety, dismissing with prejudice all claims that had been filed against the Company in the limitation actions (with the exception of one claim filed by a Company employee that was not subject to the motion to dismiss).  The Court entered final judgments in favor of the Company in the Robin Case and each of the limitation actions on November 21, 2011.  On December 12, 2011, the claimants appealed each of those judgments to the Unites States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit.  The claimants' opening brief was filed on March 26, 2012, and the Company's response brief is due on May 7, 2012.  The Company is unable to estimate the potential exposure, if any, resulting from this matter but believes it is without merit and will continue to vigorously defend the action.

On July 20, 2010, two individuals purporting to represent a class commenced a civil action in the Civil District Court for the Parish of Orleans in the State of Louisiana, John Wunstell, Jr. and Kelly Blanchard v. BP, et al., No. 2010-7437 (Division K) (the “Wunstell Action”), in which they assert, among other theories, that Mr. Wunstell suffered injuries as a result of his exposure to certain noxious fumes and chemicals in connection with the provision of remediation, containment and response services by O'Brien's. The action now is part of the overall MDL. The complaint also seeks to establish a “class-wide court-supervised medical monitoring program” for all individuals “participating in BP's Deepwater Horizon Vessels of Opportunity Program and/or Horizon Response Program” who allegedly experienced injuries similar to those of Mr. Wunstell. The Company believes this lawsuit has no merit and will seek its dismissal.  Pursuant to contractual agreements with the responsible party, the responsible party has agreed, subject to certain potential limitations, to indemnify and defend O'Brien's in connection with the Wunstell Action and claims asserted in the MDL.

On December 15, 2010, O'Brien's and then-SEACOR subsidiary National Response Corporation (“NRC”) were named as defendants in one of the several consolidated “master complaints” that have been filed in the overall MDL.  The master complaint naming O'Brien's and NRC asserts various claims on behalf of a putative class against multiple defendants concerning the clean-up activities generally, and the use of dispersants specifically.  By court order, the Wunstell Action has been stayed as a result of the filing of the referenced master complaint.  The Company believes that the claims asserted against O'Brien's and NRC in the master complaint have no merit and on February 28, 2011, O'Brien's and NRC moved to dismiss all claims against them in the master complaint on legal grounds.  On September 30, 2011, the Court granted in part and denied in part the motion to dismiss that O'Brien's and NRC had filed (an amended decision was issued on October 4, 2011 that corrected several grammatical errors and non-substantive oversights in the original order).  Although the Court refused to dismiss the referenced master complaint in its entirety at that time, the Court did recognize the validity of the “derivative immunity” and “implied preemption” arguments that O'Brien's and NRC advanced and has directed O'Brien's and NRC to (i) conduct limited discovery to develop evidence to support those arguments and (ii) then re-assert the arguments.  A schedule for such limited discovery and future motion practice has been established by the Court and currently contemplates that O'Brien's and NRC will file motions re-asserting their derivative immunity and implied preemption arguments on May 18, 2012.  The Court did, however, dismiss all state-law claims and certain other claims that had been asserted in the referenced master complaint, and dismissed the claims of all plaintiffs that have failed to allege a legally-sufficient injury.  In addition to the indemnity provided to O'Brien's, pursuant to contractual agreements with the responsible party, the responsible party has agreed, subject to certain potential limitations, to indemnify and defend O'Brien's and NRC in connection with these claims in the MDL. 

Subsequent to the filing of the referenced master complaint, four additional individual civil actions have been filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana concerning the clean-up activities generally, which name the Company, O'Brien's and/or NRC as defendants and are part of the overall MDL. On April 8, 2011, O'Brien's was named as a defendant in Johnson Bros. Corporation of Louisiana v. BP, PLC, et al., No. 2:11-cv-00781 (E.D. La.), which is a suit by an individual business seeking damages allegedly caused by a delay on a construction project alleged to have resulted from the clean-up operations. On April 15, 2011, O'Brien's and NRC were named as defendants in James and Krista Pearson v. BP Exploration & Production, Inc., et al., No. 2:11-cv-00863 (E.D. La.), which is a suit by a husband and wife, who allegedly participated in the clean-up effort and

14

are seeking damages for personal injury, property damage to their boat, and amounts allegedly due under contract. On April 15, 2011, O'Brien's and NRC were named as defendants in Thomas Edward Black v. BP Exploration & Production, Inc., et al., No. 2:11-cv-00867 (E.D. La.), which is a suit by an individual who is seeking damages for lost income because he allegedly could not find work in the fishing industry after the oil spill. On April 20, 2011, a complaint was filed in Darnell Alexander, et al. v. BP, PLC, et al., No. 2:11-cv-00951 (E.D. La.) on behalf of 117 individual plaintiffs that seek to adopt the allegations made in the referenced master complaint against O'Brien's and NRC (and the other defendants). By court order, all four of these additional individual cases have been stayed as a result of the filing of the referenced master complaint.  The Company is unable to estimate the potential exposure, if any, resulting from this matter but believes it is without merit and does not expect this matter will have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or its results of operations.

On February 18, 2011, Triton Asset Leasing GmbH, Transocean Holdings LLC, Transocean Offshore Deepwater Drilling Inc., and Transocean Deepwater Inc. (collectively “Transocean”) named O'Brien's and NRC as third-party defendants in a Rule 14(c) Third-Party Complaint in Transocean's own Limitation of Liability Act action, which is part of the overall MDL, tendering to O'Brien's and NRC the claims in the referenced master complaint that have already been asserted against O'Brien's and NRC. Transocean, Cameron International Corporation, Halliburton Energy Services, Inc., M-I L.L.C., Weatherford U.S., L.P., and Weatherford International, Inc. have also filed cross-claims against O'Brien's and NRC for contribution and tort indemnity should they be found liable for any damages in Transocean's Limitation of Liability Act action and O'Brien's and NRC have asserted counterclaims against those same parties for identical relief.  As provided above, the Company is unable to estimate the potential exposure, if any, resulting from these actions but believes they are without merit and does not expect this matter will have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or its results of operations.

Separately, on March 2, 2012, the Court announced that BP Exploration & Production Inc. and BP America Production Company (collectively "BP") and the plaintiffs had reached an agreement on the terms of two proposed class action settlements that will resolve, among other things, plaintiffs' economic loss claims and clean-up related claims against BP.  The parties filed their proposed settlement agreements on April 18, 2012 along with motions seeking preliminary approval of the settlements, and the Court held a hearing on April 25, 2012 to consider those motions but has yet to make a ruling.   Although neither the Company, O'Brien's or NRC are parties to the settlement agreements, the Company, O'Brien's and NRC are listed on the releases accompanying both settlement agreements, such that if the settlement agreements are approved by the Court as currently drafted, any plaintiffs that settle will be required to release their claims against the Company, O'Brien's and NRC.

In the course of the Company's business, it may agree to indemnify a party.  If the indemnified party makes a successful claim for indemnification, the Company would be required to reimburse that party in accordance with the terms of the indemnification agreement.  Indemnification agreements generally are subject to threshold amounts, specified claim periods and other restrictions and limitations. 

In connection with the disposition of certain entities of the Company's Environmental Services Business Segment (the “NRC Entities”) on March 16, 2012, the Company remains contingently liable for certain obligations of the NRC Entities, including potential liabilities relating to work performed in connection with the Oil Spill Response.  These potential liabilities may not exceed the purchase consideration received by the Company for the NRC Entities and the Company currently is indemnified under contractual agreements with BP.

In the normal course of its business, the Company becomes involved in various other litigation matters including, among other things, claims by third parties for alleged property damages and personal injuries. Management has used estimates in determining the Company's potential exposure to these matters and has recorded reserves in its financial statements related thereto where appropriate. It is possible that a change in the Company's estimates of that exposure could occur, but the Company does not expect such changes in estimated costs would have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or its results of operations.

In 2011, the Company received a Notice of Infringement (the “Notice”) from the Brazilian Federal Revenue Office. The Notice alleged the Company had imported a number of vessels into Brazil without properly completing the required importation documents and levied an assessment of $25.7 million. The Company intends to vigorously defend its position that the proposed assessment is erroneous and believes the resolution of this matter will not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or its results of operations. Of the levied assessment, $19.3 million relates to managed vessels whose owner would be responsible to reimburse any potential payment.

8. MULTI-EMPLOYER PENSION PLANS

There has been no material change in the multi-employer pension plans in which the Company participates, except that the Company received notification from the American Maritime Officers Pension Plan (the "AMOPP”) that, based on an actuarial valuation performed as of September 30, 2011, if the Company chose to withdraw from the AMOPP, its withdrawal liability would have been $39.3 million. That liability may change in future years based on various factors, primarily employee census. As of March 31, 2012, the Company has no intention to withdraw from the AMOPP and no deficit amounts have been invoiced. Depending upon the results of the future actuarial valuations and the ten-year rehabilitation plan, it is possible that the AMOPP will experience further funding deficits, requiring the Company to recognize additional payroll related operating expenses in the periods invoices are received or contribution levels are increased.

9. LONG-TERM DEBT AND CAPITAL LEASE OBLIGATIONS

As of March 31, 2012, the Company had $125.0 million of outstanding borrowings under the SEACOR revolving credit facility. The remaining availability under this facility was $279.0 million, net of issued letters of credit of $1.0 million. As of March 31, 2012, Era Group Inc. ("Era") had $290.0 million of outstanding borrowings under its senior secured revolving credit facilities. The remaining availability under this facility was $59.7 million, net of issued letters of credit of $0.3 million. In addition, as of March 31, 2012, the Company had other outstanding letters of credit totaling $56.7 million with various expiration dates through 2014.

During the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company made scheduled payments on long-term debt and capital lease obligations of $2.1 million, repaid $3.2 million of acquired debt, made repayments of $50.0 million of borrowings under the SEACOR revolving credit facility, made net repayments on inventory financing arrangements of $17.3 million and borrowed $38.0 million under the Era senior secured revolving credit facility.

SEACOR’s Board of Directors has previously authorized the Company to purchase any or all of its 5.875% Senior Notes due 2012 and its 7.375% Senior Notes due 2019, which may be acquired through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, depending on market conditions. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company purchased $5.5 million, in principal amount, of its 5.875% Senior Notes for $5.7 million, resulting in a loss on debt extinguishment of $0.2 million.

10. STOCK REPURCHASES

SEACOR’s Board of Directors previously approved a securities repurchase plan that authorizes the Company to acquire shares of SEACOR common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), which may be acquired through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, depending on market conditions. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company did not acquire any Common Stock for treasury. As of March 31, 2012, the remaining authority under the repurchase plan was $150.0 million.

11. EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE OF SEACOR

Basic earnings per common share of SEACOR are computed based on the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding during the relevant periods. Diluted earnings per common share of SEACOR are computed based on the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding plus the effect of potentially dilutive securities through the application of the treasury stock method. Dilutive securities for this purpose assumes restricted stock grants have vested and common shares have been issued pursuant to the exercise of outstanding stock options. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, diluted earnings per common share of SEACOR excluded 501,274 of certain share awards as the effect of their inclusion in the computation would have been antidilutive. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, diluted earnings per common share of SEACOR excluded 182,839 of certain share awards as the effect of their inclusion in the computation would have been antidilutive.

15

A reconciliation of basic and diluted weighted average outstanding common shares of SEACOR for the three months ended March 31 was as follows:

	2012	2011
Basic Weighted Average Common Shares Outstanding	20,519,660	21,104,739
Effect of Dilutive Share Awards:

13. SEGMENT INFORMATION

Accounting standards require public business enterprises to report information about each of their operating business segments that exceed certain quantitative thresholds or meet certain other reporting requirements. An operating business segment has been defined as a component of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available and is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Certain reclassifications of prior year information have been made to conform to the current year's reportable segment presentation as a result of the Company's presentation of discontinued operations (see Note 1). The Company’s basis of measurement of segment profit or loss is as previously described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This Form 10-Q includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements concerning management’s expectations, strategic objectives, business prospects, anticipated economic performance and financial condition and other similar matters involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that could cause the actual results, performance or achievements of results to differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements discussed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such risks, uncertainties and other important factors include, among others: decreased demand and loss of revenues as a result of U.S. government implemented moratoriums directing operators to cease certain drilling activities and any extension of such moratoriums (the “Moratoriums”), weakening demand for the Company’s services as a result of unplanned customer suspensions, cancellations, rate reductions or non-renewals of vessel charters and aviation equipment or failures to finalize commitments to charter vessels and aviation equipment in response to Moratoriums, increased government legislation and regulation of the Company’s businesses which could increase cost of operations, increased competition if the Jones Act is repealed, liability, legal fees and costs in connection with providing spill and emergency response services, including the Company’s involvement in response to the oil spill that resulted from the sinking of the Deepwater Horizon in April 2010, decreased demand for the Company’s services as a result of declines in the global economy, declines in valuations in the global financial markets and illiquidity in the credit sectors, including, interest rate fluctuations, availability of credit, inflation rates, change in laws, trade barriers, commodity prices and currency exchange fluctuations, the cyclical nature of the oil and gas industry, activity in foreign countries and changes in foreign political, military and economic conditions, changes in foreign and domestic oil and gas exploration and production activity, safety record requirements related to Offshore Marine Services, Marine Transportation Services and Aviation Services, decreased demand for Marine Transportation Services and Harbor and Offshore Towing Services due to construction of additional refined petroleum products, natural gas or crude oil pipelines or due to decreased demand for refined petroleum products, crude oil or chemical products or a change in existing methods of delivery, compliance with U.S. and foreign government laws and regulations, including environmental laws and regulations, the dependence of Offshore Marine Services, Marine Transportation Services and Aviation Services on several customers, consolidation of the Company’s customer base, safety issues experienced by a particular helicopter model that could result in customers refusing to use that helicopter model or a regulatory body grounding that helicopter model, which could also permanently devalue that helicopter model, the ongoing need to replace aging vessels and aircraft, industry fleet capacity, restrictions imposed by the Shipping Acts and Aviation Acts on the amount of foreign ownership of the Company’s Common Stock, operational risks of Offshore Marine Services, Marine Transportation Services, Harbor and Offshore Towing Services and Aviation Services, effects of adverse weather conditions and seasonality, dependence of spill response revenue on the number and size of spills and upon continuing government regulation in this area and Emergency and Crisis Services’ ability to comply with such regulation and other governmental regulation, liability in connection with providing spill response services, the level of grain export volume, the effect of fuel prices on barge towing costs, variability in freight rates for inland river barges, the effect of international economic and political factors in Inland River Services’ operations, adequacy of insurance coverage, the attraction and retention of qualified personnel by the Company and various other matters and factors, many of which are beyond the Company’s control. In addition, these statements constitute the Company’s cautionary statements under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. It is not possible to predict or identify all such factors. Consequently, the following should not be considered a complete discussion of all potential risks or uncertainties. The words “estimate,” “project,” “intend,” “believe,” “plan” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of the document in which they are made. The Company disclaims any obligation or undertaking to provide any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statement to reflect any change in the Company’s expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which the forward-looking statement is based. The forward-looking statements in this Form 10-Q should be evaluated together with the many uncertainties that affect the Company’s businesses, particularly those mentioned under “Forward-Looking Statements” in Item 7 on the Company’s Form 10-K and SEACOR’s periodic reporting on Form 8-K (if any), which are incorporated by reference.

Overview

The Company’s operations are divided into six main business segments – Offshore Marine Services, Aviation Services, Inland River Services, Marine Transportation Services, Emergency and Crisis Services and Commodity Trading and Logistics. The Company also has activities that are referred to and described under Other that primarily includes Harbor and Offshore Towing Services, various other investments in joint ventures and lending and leasing activities.

On March 16, 2012, the Company sold certain companies and assets of its Environmental Services business segment for a net sales price of $99.9 million and recognized a gain of $20.7 million, net of tax, or $0.99 per diluted share.  The Company has no continuing involvement in the business sold, although the sales agreement provides that the Company may receive contingent consideration equal to a portion of the revenue generated by any extraordinary oil spill response that occurs within three years following the date of sale.  As a result, the Company has reported, for all periods presented, the financial

19

position, results of operations and cash flows for the sold business as discontinued operations.  The remaining business in its Environmental Services business segment was renamed Emergency and Crisis Services.

Emergency and Crisis Services is primarily engaged in providing emergency preparedness and crisis management services to the public and private sectors in the United States and abroad. Clients served include aerospace, chemicals, energy, food, health care, industrial, mining, oil, retail, shipping and transportation as well as industry associations, non-profit associations, school districts and universities.

Current Year Quarter compared with Prior Year Quarter

Operating Revenues. Operating revenues increased by $40.7 million in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter. Excluding the contribution of wind farm utility vessels, time charter revenues were $36.3 million higher in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter. Overall fleet utilization was 81% compared with 65%. The number of days available for charter was 10,164 compared with 10,877, a 713 day or 7% reduction, primarily due to fleet dispositions which reduced time charter revenues by $3.0 million. Overall average day rates were $13,174 per day compared with $10,123 per day, an increase of $3,051 per day or 30%. Improved utilization increased time charter revenues by $12.9 million. Fleet additions,

the impact of vessels mobilizing between geographic regions and other changes in fleet mix combined to increase time charter revenues by $7.9 million. In overall terms, higher average day rates increased time charter revenues by $18.8 million, while the impact of unfavorable changes in currency exchange rates decreased time charter revenues by $0.3 million. The Company's fleet of wind farm utility vessels, which was acquired in December 2011, contributed time charter revenues of $5.5 million during the Current Year Quarter with an average day rate of $2,431 per day and a utilization rate of 86%.

In the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, time charter revenues were $27.3 million higher primarily due to firmer market conditions. During the Current Year Quarter, improved utilization and higher average day rates increased time charter revenues by $10.1 million and $14.8 million, respectively. Net fleet additions and other changes in fleet mix combined to increase time charter revenues by $2.4 million. As of March 31, 2012, the Company had four vessels cold-stacked in this region compared with twelve as of March 31, 2011.

In Brazil, Mexico and Central and South America, time charter revenues were $5.5 million higher, of which $3.1 million was due to net fleet additions and vessels that mobilized into the region and $3.0 million was due to higher average day rates. Lower utilization decreased time charter revenues by $0.6 million.

In Europe, excluding the $5.5 million contribution of the wind farm utility vessels in the Current Year Quarter, time charter revenues were $1.3 million higher, of which $0.8 million was due to improved average day rates and $1.0 million was due to incremental time charter revenues from a vessel that mobilized into the region. A vessel disposition and unfavorable changes in currency exchange rates decreased time charter revenues by $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively.

Revenues from brokered vessel activity were $3.1 million lower primarily due to reduced activity in West Africa.

Operating Expenses. Operating expenses were $12.3 million higher in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter. Personnel costs were $4.6 million higher primarily due to net fleet additions, including the Company's wind farm utility vessels that were acquired in December 2011, the return to service of previously cold-stacked vessels and inflationary pressures on rates of pay. Repair and maintenance expenses were $2.3 million higher, primarily in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, as activity levels increased during the Current Year Quarter. Fuel, lubes and supplies expenses were $1.5 million higher primarily due to the wind farm utility vessel fleet. Leased-in equipment expense was $2.3 higher primarily due to the charter-in of several vessels into Brazil, Mexico and Central and South America. Brokered vessel activity was $2.2 million lower primarily due to reduced activity in West Africa. Other operating expenses were $2.3 million higher primarily due to net fleet additions and increased activity levels.

Gains on Asset Dispositions. During the Current Year Quarter, the Company sold one offshore support vessel and other equipment for net proceeds of $2.0 million and gains of $1.7 million. In addition, the Company recognized previously deferred gains of $0.1 million. During the Prior Year Quarter, the Company sold one offshore support vessel and other equipment for net proceeds of $9.6 million and gains of $4.2 million. In addition, the Company recognized previously deferred gains of $0.2 million.

Operating Income. Excluding the impact of gains on asset dispositions and the impact of brokered vessel activity, operating income as a percentage of operating revenues was 17% in the Current Year Quarter compared with -10% in the Prior Year Quarter. The improvement was primarily due to firmer market conditions in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico as noted above.

Equity in Earnings of 50% or Less Owned Companies, Net of Tax. Equity in earnings of 50% or less owned companies, net of tax increased by $1.1 million in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter primarily due to the commencement of a long-term charter for a vessel in November 2011 and improved results in the Offshore Marine Services' Mexican joint venture. These increases were partially offset by lower results from Offshore Marine Services' liftboat and Angolan joint ventures.

Current Year Quarter compared with Prior Year Quarter

Operating Revenues. Operating revenues increased by $4.9 million in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter. Operating revenues in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico were $8.0 million higher primarily due to newly delivered medium and heavy helicopters being placed on contract, an expansion of government services support and a general increase in charter activity. Operating revenues in Alaska were $1.8 million lower primarily due to the temporary suspension of a contract with a major oil and gas customer whose operations are expected to resume in October 2012. Operating revenues from contract-leasing activities were $1.9 million lower primarily due to the deferral of $2.8 million of contract-leasing revenues from Aviation Services’ Brazilian joint venture due to uncertainties regarding collectability. This reduction was partially offset by additional helicopters placed on contract-leases with existing customers. Operating revenues for air medical services were $0.5 million higher due to an additional hospital contract.

Operating Expenses. Operating expenses were $6.2 million higher in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter. Personnel costs were $1.1 million higher as additional personnel were added to support the increased activity discussed above. Repair and maintenance expenses were $0.6 million higher primarily due to $1.9 million from enrolling additional helicopters in power-by-hour maintenance programs, a $2.2 million increase from increased activity and timing of repairs, partially offset by $3.6 million of vendor credits recognized in the Current Year Quarter. Insurance and loss reserves were $1.1 million higher due to an increase in the overall fleet value and the recognition of a good experience credit from Aviation Services' hull and machinery underwriters in the Prior Year Quarter. Other operating expenses were $3.0 million higher primarily due to the receipt of $1.8 million in insurance proceeds related to hurricane damages sustained in 2005 in the Prior Year Quarter.

Administrative and General. Administrative and general expenses were $2.7 million higher primarily due to the recognition of previously deferred legal and other professional expenses.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expenses were $2.3 million lower due to a change in estimate of the useful life and salvage value of helicopters, which reduced depreciation expense by $3.9 million in the Current Year Quarter, partially offset by the addition of new and higher cost equipment. Effective July 1, 2011, the Company changed its estimated useful life and salvage value for helicopters from 12 to 15 years and 30% to 40%, respectively, due to improvements in new aircraft models that continue to increase their long-term value and make them viable for operation over a longer period of time.

Gains on Asset Dispositions and Impairments, Net. During the Current Year Quarter, Aviation Services sold one helicopter and other equipment for proceeds of $2.9 million and gains of $1.5 million. In addition, Aviation Services recognized previously deferred gains of $0.3 million. During the Prior Year Quarter, Aviation Services sold two helicopters and other equipment for proceeds of $2.8 million and gains of $2.0 million. In addition, Aviation Services recognized previously deferred gains of $0.2 million.

Operating Income. Operating income as a percentage of operating revenues was 6% in the Current Year Quarter compared with 11% in the Prior Year Quarter. The decrease was primarily due to higher personnel and insurance related costs and the recognition of previously deferred legal and other professional expenses as noted above, partially offset by the change in depreciation policy noted above.

Equity in Losses of 50% or Less Owned Companies. During the Current Year Quarter, Aviation Services recognized an impairment charge of $5.9 million, net of tax, on its Brazilian joint venture.

Current Year Quarter compared with Prior Year Quarter

Operating Revenues. Operating revenues increased by $7.0 million in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter. Operating revenues from the dry cargo barge pools were $3.4 million lower as a result of a reduction in activity levels due to poor river conditions and weak demand for freight in the Current Year Quarter. As a result, a portion of the fleet was idled in the Current Year Quarter. Operating revenues from the 10,000 barrel liquid tank barge operations increased by $1.4 million primarily due to an increase in northbound activity. Operating revenues from inland river towboat operations and other activities increased by $8.6 million primarily due to activity in SCF's Lewis and Clark Fleeting and Terminal operations acquired in December 2011 ("Lewis & Clark").

Operating Expenses. Operating expenses were $7.3 million higher in the Current Year Quarter primarily due to Lewis & Clark. The increases were partially offset by a reduction of operating expenses for the dry cargo barge pools as a result of lower activity levels and idling a portion of the fleet as described above.

Administrative and General. Administrative and general expenses were $1.3 million higher in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter, primarily due to activity from Lewis & Clark, the acquisition of a 70% interest in Naviera in December 2011 and higher wage and benefit costs.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expenses were $1.4 million higher in the Current Year Quarter primarily due to Lewis & Clark and the consolidation of Soylutions beginning in July 2011.

Operating Income. Excluding the impact of gains on assets dispositions, operating income as a percentage of operating revenues was 14% in the Current Year Quarter compared with 22% in the Prior Year Quarter. The decrease was primarily attributable to the idling a portion of the fleet noted above.

Gains on Asset Dispositions. During the Current Year Quarter, the Company financed the sale of one towboat and recognized gains of $1.2 million. In addition, the Company recognized previously deferred gains of $0.7 million. During the Prior Year Quarter, the Company recognized previously deferred gains of $0.7 million.

Current Year Quarter compared with Prior Year Quarter

G&G Shipping Acquisition. In April 2011, Marine Transportation Services acquired real property, eight foreign flag Roll-on/Roll-off (“RORO”) vessels and a 70% interest in an operating company engaged in the shipping trade between the United States, the Bahamas and the Caribbean (the "G&G Shipping Acquisition"). The operating company leases-in the real property and the RORO vessels from the Company. In the Current Year Quarter, this operation contributed an operating loss of $0.8 million.

Operating Revenues.  Operating revenues increased by $9.0 million in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter primarily due to the G&G Shipping Acquisition as discussed above. Time charter revenues were $0.5 million higher in the Current Year Quarter primarily due to an increase in charter hire rates for three vessels and one additional operating day in the Current Year Quarter. Bareboat charter revenues were $0.1 million higher in the Current Year Quarter due to one additional operating day in the Current Year Quarter.

Operating Expenses.  Operating expenses increased by $6.8 million in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter primarily due to the G&G Shipping Acquisition.

Administrative and General. Administrative and general expenses were $1.1 million higher in the Current Year Quarter primarily due to the G&G Shipping Acquisition.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expenses were $0.7 million higher in the Current Year Quarter primarily due to the G&G Shipping Acquisition, partially offset by a reduction due to the sale of the Seabulk America in October 2011.

Operating Income. Operating income as a percentage of operating revenues was 9% in the Current Year Quarter compared with 11% in the Prior Year Quarter primarily due to the results of the G&G Shipping Acquisition.

Equity in Losses of 50% or Less Owned Companies. Equity in losses was $0.2 million in the Current Year Quarter primarily reflecting depreciation expense in the Company's joint venture established to own an articulated tug-barge, which began a charter in April 2012.

Fleet Count

As of March 31, 2012, Marine Transportation Services’ fleet included seven U.S.-flag product tankers operating in the domestic coastwise trade, of which five were owned and two were leased-in, and eight owned foreign flag RORO vessels operating in the shipping trade between the United States, the Bahamas and the Caribbean. Of the U.S-flag product tankers, four were operating under long-term bareboat charters and three were operating under time charters. As of March 31, 2011, Marine Transportation Services’ fleet included eight U.S.-flag product tankers operating in the domestic coastwise trade.

Operating Results. Operating revenues and operating margins for Emergency and Crisis Services can vary materially between comparable periods depending upon the number and magnitude of emergency responses. Emergency and Crisis Services' operating results in the Prior Year Quarter were impacted by oil spill response activities relating to the BP Macondo well incident in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico following the sinking of the semi-submersible drilling rig Deepwater Horizon in April 2010 (the “Oil Spill Response”). Emergency and Crisis Services provided professional assistance and software systems in support of incident management activities.

______________________

(1) In the Company’s energy and sugar trading businesses, fixed price future purchase and sale contracts for ethanol and sugar are included in derivative positions at fair value. The Company routinely enters into exchange traded derivative positions to offset its net commodity market exposure on these purchase and sale contracts as well as its inventory balances. As a result, derivative gains (losses), net recognized during any period are predominately offset by fair value adjustments included in operating revenues and expenses on completed transactions, subject to certain timing differences on the delivery of physical inventories. As of March 31, 2012 and 2011, the net market exposure to ethanol and sugar under its contracts and inventory balances was not material.

Energy Trading. On February 1, 2012, the Company obtained a 70% controlling interest in ICP through its acquisition of a portion of its partner's interest for $9.1 million in cash. ICP owns and operates an alcohol manufacturing facility dedicated to the production of alcohol for beverage, industrial and fuel applications. Upon the acquisition, the Company adjusted its investment in ICP to fair value resulting in the recognition of a gain of $6.0 million, net of tax, which is included in equity in earnings in 50%

Corporate Expenses. Corporate expenses decreased by $1.7 million in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter primarily due to lower audit and tax fees and management bonus accruals, partially offset by the receipt in the Prior Year Quarter of additional insurance proceeds related to hurricanes Katrina and Rita.

Derivative gains (losses), net. Derivative losses, net of $1.1 million in the Current Year Quarter were primarily due to losses on equity indices partially offset by gains on forward currency exchange, option and future contracts. Derivative gains, net of $1.1 million in the Prior Year Quarter were primarily due to gains on exchange traded commodity options and future contracts.

Foreign currency gains, net. Foreign currency gains, net of $0.4 million and $4.0 million in the Current Year Quarter and Prior Year Quarter, respectively, were primarily due to the strengthening of the euro against the U.S. dollar.

Interest Expense. Interest expense increased by $2.0 million in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter primarily due to interest expense on borrowings from Era's $350.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility entered into on December 22, 2011.

34

Marketable Security Gains, net. Marketable security gains, net in the Current Year Quarter and Prior Year Quarter were primarily attributable to gains on the Company's long marketable security positions partially offset by losses on its short marketable security positions.

Discontinued Operations

Income from discontinued operations, net of tax, was $19.4 million in the Current Year Quarter compared with a loss of $1.2 million in the Prior Year Quarter. On March 16, 2012, the Company sold certain companies and assets of its Environmental Services business segment for a net sales price of $99.9 million and recognized a gain of $20.7 million, net of tax, or $0.99 per diluted share. The Company has no continuing involvement in the business sold, although the sales agreement provides that the Company may receive contingent consideration equal to a portion of the revenue generated by any extraordinary oil spill response that occurs within three years following the date of sale.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

The Company's ongoing liquidity requirements arise primarily from working capital needs, and its obligations to meet capital commitments and repay debt obligations. The Company may use its liquidity to fund acquisitions, repurchase shares of SEACOR common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), for treasury or to make other investments. Sources of liquidity are cash balances, marketable securities, construction reserve funds, Title XI reserve funds, cash flows from operations and borrowings under the Company's revolving credit facilities. From time to time, the Company may secure additional liquidity through asset sales or the issuance of debt, shares of Common Stock or common stock of its subsidiaries, preferred stock or a combination thereof.

The Company’s unfunded capital commitments as of March 31, 2012, consisted primarily of offshore support vessels, helicopters, inland river tank barges, harbor tugs, an interest in a dry-bulk articulated tug-barge, an interest in a river grain terminal and other property and equipment. These commitments totaled $343.0 million, of which $157.7 million is payable during the remainder of 2012 with the balance payable through 2016. Of the total unfunded capital commitments, $44.9 million may be terminated without further liability other than the payment of liquidated damages of $1.4 million.

As of March 31, 2012, construction reserve funds of $250.3 million were classified as non-current assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as the Company has the intent and ability to use the funds to acquire equipment.

SEACOR’s Board of Directors previously approved a securities repurchase plan that authorizes the Company to acquire Common Stock, which may be acquired through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, depending on market conditions. As of March 31, 2012, the remaining authority under the repurchase plan was $150.0 million.

SEACOR’s Board of Directors has previously authorized the Company to purchase any or all of its 5.875% Senior Notes due 2012 and its 7.375% Senior Notes due 2019, which may be acquired through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, depending on market conditions.

As of March 31, 2012, the Company had $125.0 million of outstanding borrowings under the SEACOR revolving credit facility. The remaining availability under this facility as of March 31, 2012 was $279.0 million, net of issued letters of credit of $1.0 million. On November 3, 2012, the maximum committed amount under the revolving credit facility will be reduced by $40.5 million. As of March 31, 2012, Era had $290.0 million of outstanding borrowings under its senior secured revolving credit facility. The remaining availability under this facility as of March 31, 2012 was $59.7 million, net of issued letters of credit of $0.3 million. In addition, the Company had other outstanding letters of credit totaling $56.7 million with various expiration dates through 2014.

Total cash flows provided by operating activities	37,765		106,027

Operating income from continuing operations before depreciation and gains on asset dispositions and impairments, net was $13.0 million higher in the Current Year Quarter compared with the Prior Year Quarter primarily due to improvements in Offshore Marine Services, partially offset by reduced oil spill response activities in Emergency and Crisis Services. See “Consolidated Results of Operations” included above for a discussion of the results of each of the Company's business segments.

During the Current Year Quarter, changes in operating assets and liabilities before interest and income taxes used cash flows of $29.7 million primarily due to increases in working capital employed by Offshore Marine Services, Aviation Services, Emergency and Crisis Services and Commodity Trading and Logistics. During the Prior Year Quarter, changes in operating assets and liabilities before interest and income taxes generated cash flows of $45.0 million primarily due to reduced working capital employed in Offshore Marine Services, Inland River Services, Emergency and Crisis Services and Discontinued Operations, partially offset by increased working capital in Commodity Trading and Logistics due to the accumulation of ethanol inventories.

36

During the Current Year Quarter, cash used in operating activities included $9.0 million to purchase marketable security long positions and $1.5 million to cover marketable security short positions. During the Current Year Quarter, cash provided by operating activities included $12.2 million received from the sale of marketable security long positions and $2.5 million received upon entering into marketable security short positions.

During the Prior Year Quarter, cash used in operating activities included $10.3 million to purchase marketable security long positions and $23.7 million to cover marketable security short positions.

Short and Long-Term Liquidity Requirements

Current economic conditions have continued to disrupt the credit and capital markets. To date, the Company’s liquidity has not been materially impacted by the current credit environment and management does not expect that it will be materially impacted in the near future. The Company anticipates it will continue to generate positive cash flows from operations and that these cash flows will be adequate to meet the Company’s working capital requirements. In support of the Company’s capital expenditure program or other liquidity requirements, the Company may: use its cash balances; sell securities; utilize construction reserve funds; sell assets; enter into sale and leaseback transactions for equipment; borrow under its revolving credit facilities; issue debt, shares of Common Stock, common stock of its subsidiaries or preferred stock; or a combination thereof.

The Company’s long-term liquidity is dependent upon its ability to generate operating profits sufficient to meet its requirements for working capital, capital expenditures and a reasonable return on shareholders’ investment. The Company believes that earning such operating profits will permit it to maintain its access to favorably priced debt, equity or off-balance sheet financing arrangements. Management will continue to closely monitor the Company’s liquidity and the credit and capital markets.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

For a discussion of the Company's off-balance sheet arrangements, refer to Liquidity and Capital Resources contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. There has been no material change in the Company's off-balance sheet arrangements during the Current Year Quarter except for the indemnifications of the NRC Entities as discussed below in Contingencies.

Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments

For a discussion of the Company's contractual obligations and commercial commitments, refer to Liquidity and Capital Resources contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. There has been no material change in the Company's contractual obligations and commercial commitments during the Current Year Quarter.

Contingencies

On August 19, 2011, the Company granted two fixed price purchase options to an unrelated third party to acquire up to 25% of the outstanding common stock of O'Brien's, the Company's Emergency and Crisis Services business segment. The first option to acquire a 12.5% interest may be exercised beginning August 19, 2012 through August 19, 2014. If the first option is exercised, the second option to acquire an additional 12.5% may be exercised beginning August 19, 2013 through August 19, 2015.

On June 12, 2009, a purported civil class action was filed against the Company, Era Group Inc., Era Helicopters LLC and three other defendants (collectively, the “Defendants”) in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware, Superior Offshore International, Inc. v. Bristow Group Inc., et al., No. 09-CV-438 (D. Del.).  The Complaint alleges that the Defendants violated federal antitrust law by conspiring with each other to raise, fix, maintain or stabilize prices for offshore helicopter services in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico during the period January 2001 to December 2005.  The purported class of plaintiffs includes all direct purchasers of such services and the relief sought includes compensatory damages and treble damages.  The Company believes that the claims set forth in the Complaint are without merit and intends to vigorously defend the action.  On September 4, 2009, the Defendants filed a motion to dismiss the Complaint.  On September 14, 2010, the Court entered an order dismissing the Complaint.  On September 28, 2010, the plaintiffs filed a motion for reconsideration and amendment and a motion for re-argument (the “Motions”).  On November 30, 2010, the Court granted the Motions, amended the Court's September 14, 2010 Order to clarify that the dismissal was without prejudice, permitted the filing of an amended Complaint, and authorized limited discovery with respect to the new allegations in the amended Complaint.  Following the completion of such limited discovery, on February 11, 2011, the Defendants filed a motion for summary judgment to dismiss the amended Complaint with prejudice.  On June 23, 2011, the Court granted summary judgment for the Defendants.  On July 22, 2011, the plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit.  On August 9, 2011, Defendants moved for certain excessive costs, expenses, and attorneys' fees under 28 U.S.C. § 1927. That motion is fully briefed and a decision is pending. On October 11, 2011, the plaintiffs filed their opening appeal brief with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit. That motion was fully briefed and oral argument completed on March 20, 2012. The Company is unable to estimate the potential exposure, if any, resulting from these claims but believes they are without merit and will continue to vigorously defend the action.

On July 14, 2010, a group of individuals and entities purporting to represent a class commenced a civil action in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana, Terry G. Robin, et al. v. Seacor Marine, L.L.C., et al., No. 2:10-cv-01986 (E.D. La.) (the “Robin Case”), in which they assert that support vessels, including vessels owned by the Company, responding to the explosion and resulting fire that occurred aboard the semi-submersible drilling rig, the Deepwater Horizon, were negligent in their efforts to save lives and put out the fire and contributed to the sinking of the Deepwater Horizon and subsequent oil spill. The action now is part of the overall multi-district litigation, In re Oil Spill by the Oil Rig “Deepwater Horizon”, MDL No. 2179 (“MDL”). The complaint seeks compensatory, punitive, exemplary, and other damages.  In response to this lawsuit, the Company filed petitions seeking exoneration from, or limitation of liability in relation to, any actions that may have been taken by vessels owned by the Company to extinguish the fire.  Pursuant to the Limitation of Liability Act, those petitions imposed an automatic stay on the Robin Case, and the court set a deadline of April 20, 2011 for individual claimants to assert claims in the limitation cases.  Approximately 66 claims were submitted by the deadline in all of the limitation actions.  On June 8, 2011, the Company moved to dismiss these claims (with the exception of one claim filed by a Company employee) on various legal grounds.  On October 12, 2011, the Court granted the Company's motion to dismiss in its entirety, dismissing with prejudice all claims that had been filed against the Company in the limitation actions (with the exception of one claim filed by a Company employee that was not subject to the motion to dismiss).  The Court entered final judgments in favor of the Company in the Robin Case and each of the limitation actions on November 21, 2011.  On December 12, 2011, the claimants appealed each of those judgments to the Unites States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit.  The claimants' opening brief was filed on March 26, 2012, and the Company's response brief is due on May 7, 2012.  The Company is unable to estimate the potential exposure, if any, resulting from this matter but believes it is without merit and will continue to vigorously defend the action.

On July 20, 2010, two individuals purporting to represent a class commenced a civil action in the Civil District Court for the Parish of Orleans in the State of Louisiana, John Wunstell, Jr. and Kelly Blanchard v. BP, et al., No. 2010-7437 (Division K) (the “Wunstell Action”), in which they assert, among other theories, that Mr. Wunstell suffered injuries as a result of his exposure to certain noxious fumes and chemicals in connection with the provision of remediation, containment and response services by O'Brien's. The action now is part of the overall MDL. The complaint also seeks to establish a “class-wide court-supervised medical monitoring program” for all individuals “participating in BP's Deepwater Horizon Vessels of Opportunity Program and/or Horizon Response Program” who allegedly experienced injuries similar to those of Mr. Wunstell. The Company believes this lawsuit has no merit and will seek its dismissal.  Pursuant to contractual agreements with the responsible party, the responsible party has agreed, subject to certain potential limitations, to indemnify and defend O'Brien's in connection with the Wunstell Action and claims asserted in the MDL.

On December 15, 2010, O'Brien's and then-SEACOR subsidiary National Response Corporation (“NRC”) were named as defendants in one of the several consolidated “master complaints” that have been filed in the overall MDL.  The master complaint naming O'Brien's and NRC as defendants asserts various claims on behalf of a putative class against multiple defendants concerning the clean-up activities generally, and the use of dispersants specifically.  By court order, the Wunstell Action has been stayed as a result of the filing of the referenced master complaint.  The Company believes that the claims asserted against O'Brien's and NRC in the master complaint have no merit and on February 28, 2011, O'Brien's and NRC moved to dismiss all claims against them in the master complaint on legal grounds.  On September 30, 2011, the Court granted in part and denied in part the motion to dismiss that O'Brien's and NRC had filed (an amended decision was issued on October 4, 2011 that corrected several grammatical errors

39

and non-substantive oversights in the original order).  Although the Court refused to dismiss the referenced master complaint in its entirety at that time, the Court did recognize the validity of the “derivative immunity” and “implied preemption” arguments that O'Brien's and NRC advanced and has directed O'Brien's and NRC to (i) conduct limited discovery to develop evidence to support those arguments and (ii) then re-assert the arguments.  A schedule for such limited discovery and future motion practice has been established by the Court and currently contemplates that O'Brien's and NRC will file motions re-asserting their derivative immunity and implied preemption arguments on May 18, 2012.  The Court did, however, dismiss all state-law claims and certain other claims that had been asserted in the referenced master complaint, and dismissed the claims of all plaintiffs that have failed to allege a legally-sufficient injury.  In addition to the indemnity provided to O'Brien's, pursuant to contractual agreements with the responsible party, the responsible party has agreed, subject to certain potential limitations, to indemnify and defend O'Brien's and NRC in connection with these claims in the MDL. 

Subsequent to the filing of the referenced master complaint, four additional individual civil actions have been filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana concerning the clean-up activities generally, which name the Company, O'Brien's and/or NRC as defendants and are part of the overall MDL. On April 8, 2011, O'Brien's was named as a defendant in Johnson Bros. Corporation of Louisiana v. BP, PLC, et al., No. 2:11-cv-00781 (E.D. La.), which is a suit by an individual business seeking damages allegedly caused by a delay on a construction project alleged to have resulted from the clean-up operations. On April 15, 2011, O'Brien's and NRC were named as defendants in James and Krista Pearson v. BP Exploration & Production, Inc., et al., No. 2:11-cv-00863 (E.D. La.), which is a suit by a husband and wife, who allegedly participated in the clean-up effort and are seeking damages for personal injury, property damage to their boat, and amounts allegedly due under contract. On April 15, 2011, O'Brien's and NRC were named as defendants in Thomas Edward Black v. BP Exploration & Production, Inc., et al., No. 2:11-cv-00867 (E.D. La.), which is a suit by an individual who is seeking damages for lost income because he allegedly could not find work in the fishing industry after the oil spill. On April 20, 2011, a complaint was filed in Darnell Alexander, et al. v. BP, PLC, et al., No. 2:11-cv-00951 (E.D. La.) on behalf of 117 individual plaintiffs that seek to adopt the allegations made in the referenced master complaint against O'Brien's and NRC (and the other defendants). By court order, all four of these additional individual cases have been stayed as a result of the filing of the referenced master complaint.  The Company is unable to estimate the potential exposure, if any, resulting from this matter but believes it is without merit and does not expect this matter will have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or its results of operations.

On February 18, 2011, Triton Asset Leasing GmbH, Transocean Holdings LLC, Transocean Offshore Deepwater Drilling Inc., and Transocean Deepwater Inc. (collectively “Transocean”) named O'Brien's and NRC as third-party defendants in a Rule 14(c) Third-Party Complaint in Transocean's own Limitation of Liability Act action, which is part of the overall MDL, tendering to O'Brien's and NRC the claims in the referenced master complaint that have already been asserted against O'Brien's and NRC. Transocean, Cameron International Corporation, Halliburton Energy Services, Inc., M-I L.L.C., Weatherford U.S., L.P., and Weatherford International, Inc. have also filed cross-claims against O'Brien's and NRC for contribution and tort indemnity should they be found liable for any damages in Transocean's Limitation of Liability Act action and O'Brien's and NRC have asserted counterclaims against those same parties for identical relief.  As provided above, the Company is unable to estimate the potential exposure, if any, resulting from these actions but believes they are without merit and does not expect this matter will have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or its results of operations.

Separately, on March 2, 2012, the Court announced that BP Exploration & Production Inc. and BP America Production Company (collectively "BP") and the plaintiffs had reached an agreement on the terms of two proposed class action settlements that will resolve, among other things, plaintiffs' economic loss claims and clean-up related claims against BP.  The parties filed their proposed settlement agreements on April 18, 2012 along with motions seeking preliminary approval of the settlements, and the Court held a hearing on April 25, 2012 to consider those motions but has yet to make a ruling.   Although neither the Company, O'Brien's or NRC are parties to the settlement agreements, the Company, O'Brien's and NRC are listed on the releases accompanying both settlement agreements, such that if the settlement agreements are approved by the Court as currently drafted, any plaintiffs that settle will be required to release their claims against the Company, O'Brien's and NRC.

In the course of the Company's business, it may agree to indemnify a party.  If the indemnified party makes a successful claim for indemnification, the Company would be required to reimburse that party in accordance with the terms of the indemnification agreement.  Indemnification agreements generally are subject to threshold amounts, specified claim periods and other restrictions and limitations. 

In connection with the disposition of the NRC Entities of the Company's Environmental Services Business Segment (the “NRC Entities”) on March 16, 2012, the Company remains contingently liable for certain obligations of the NRC Entities, including potential liabilities relating to work performed in connection with the Oil Spill Response.  These potential liabilities may not exceed the purchase consideration received by the Company for the NRC Entities and the Company currently is indemnified under contractual agreements with BP.

40

In the normal course of its business, the Company becomes involved in various other litigation matters including, among other things, claims by third parties for alleged property damages and personal injuries. Management has used estimates in determining the Company’s potential exposure to these matters and has recorded reserves in its financial statements related thereto where appropriate. It is possible that a change in the Company’s estimates of such exposure could occur, but the Company does not expect that any change in estimated exposure would have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or its results of operations.

In 2011, the Company received a Notice of Infringement (the “Notice”) from the Brazilian Federal Revenue Office. The Notice alleged the Company had imported a number of vessels into Brazil without properly completing the required importation documents and levied an assessment of $25.7 million. The Company intends to vigorously defend its position that the proposed assessment is erroneous and believes the resolution of this matter will not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or its results of operations. Of the levied assessment, $19.3 million relates to managed vessels whose owner would be responsible to reimburse any potential payment.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

For a discussion of the Company’s exposure to market risk, refer to Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk, contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. There has been no significant change in the Company’s exposure to market risk during the Current Year Quarter, except as described below.

As of March 31, 2012, the Company had capital purchase commitments of €66.0 million ($88.1 million). An adverse change of 10% in the underlying foreign currency exchange rate would increase the U.S. dollar equivalent of these non-hedged purchase commitments by $5.7 million, net of tax.

As of March 31, 2012, Era Group Inc., a subsidiary of the Company, had outstanding variable rate borrowings of $290.0 million under the terms of its senior secured revolving credit facility. The average borrowing rate as of March 31, 2012 was 3.2%. An adverse change of 10% in LIBOR would result in additional annual interest expense of $0.1 million, net of tax.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

With the participation of the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, management evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), as of March 31, 2012.
