NOTICE OF FIRST PREFERRED SHIP MORTGAGE
This Vessel is owned by Matson Navigation Company, Inc. and is subject
to a First Preferred Ship Mortgage in favor of The Prudential Insurance
Company of America, as Collateral Agent for itself and certain other
lenders, as Mortgagee, under authority of Chapter 313 of Title 46
United States Code. Under the terms of said Mortgage, neither the Owner
of this Vessel, nor anyone on the Owner's behalf, nor any charterer,
nor the Master, nor any other person has any right, power or authority
to create, incur or permit to be placed or imposed upon this Vessel,
any lien whatsoever, other than the lien of said Mortgage and liens for
wages of crew or the Master of this Vessel arising from the current
voyage, for wages of stevedores when employed directly by this Vessel,
or for general average or salvage.
ss.1.9. Removal of Liens. If a notice of claim of lien is recorded
----------------
against the Vessel, or a libel is filed against the Vessel, or the Vessel is
attached, levied upon, or taken into custody, the Owner will promptly notify the
Mortgagee thereof by telecopy or telex, confirmed by letter; and within seven
(7) days of such recording, filing, attachment, levy, or taking, will cause a
certificate of discharge to be recorded in the case of any such recording of
notice of claim or will cause the Vessel to be released in the case of any such
attachment, levy or other taking into custody and will cause all liens thereon
relating to such recording, libel, attachment, levy or other taking into custody
to be discharged and will promptly notify the Mortgagee thereof.
ss.1.10. Condition and Maintenance of the Vessel. Upon the delivery of
---------------------------------------
the Vessel by the Builder to the Owner, the Vessel shall be tight, staunch and
strong and well and sufficiently tackled, appareled, furnished and equipped and
in all respects seaworthy (it being understood, for the avoidance of doubt, that
the Owner makes no covenant as to seaworthiness after such delivery). The Owner
will at all times and without cost and expense to the Mortgagee (a) maintain and
preserve or cause to be maintained and preserved the Vessel in good running
order and repair, and will cause all equipment and parts thereof which become
worn out, broken or damaged to be repaired or replaced, (b) will keep the
Vessel, or cause the Vessel to be kept, in such condition as will entitle the
Vessel to the highest class and rating for vessels of the same age and type by
the American Bureau of Shipping (or other classification society of like
standing satisfactory to the Mortgagee), without recommendation affecting class,
and annually, together with the delivery of financial statements under paragraph
5A(ii) of the Note Agreement, will furnish to the Mortgagee a certificate or
certificates of such society that such classification is maintained, and to be
covered by and operated in compliance with a valid Coast Guard Certificate of
Inspection, and (c) furnish to the Mortgagee copies of all material damage
reports and required periodic class surveys made by the American Bureau of
Shipping (or other classification society of like standing satisfactory to the
Mortgagee). Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, if at any time the Vessel
shall fail to meet such standards, the Owner shall not be in breach of this
ss.1.10; provided, such failure is cured within the time prescribed by the
--------
American Bureau of Shipping or such other classification society for curing such
condition, or such failure occurs during any period in which (i) there has been
a loss with respect to the Vessel (other than an Event of Loss) and the Owner
shall not have had a reasonable time to repair the same, or (ii) the use of the
Vessel has been requisitioned by any governmental entity that does not permit
the Owner to maintain the classification and rating of the Vessel. The Vessel
shall, and the Owner covenants that it will, at all times comply with all
applicable United States law, treaties and conventions, and rules and
regulations issued thereunder, and shall have on board, when required thereby,
valid certificates showing compliance therewith. The Owner will not make, or
permit to be made, any substantial change in the structure, type, speed, or
propulsion of the Vessel that would diminish the value of the Vessel.
ss.1.11. Access. Except during the continuance of any event of default
------
under this Mortgage, the Note Agreement, or the Notes, or an event that, with
the giving of notice or the lapse of time, or both, would constitute an event of
default under this Mortgage, the Note Agreement or the Notes, the Owner will, at
a reasonable time during each calendar year, afford the Mortgagee or its
authorized representatives, at the Mortgagee's expense, full and complete access
to the Vessel where the same shall be located at the time for the purpose of
inspecting the same and its cargoes and papers. During the continuance of an
event of default under this Mortgage, the Note Agreement, or the Notes, or an
event that, with the giving of notice or the lapse of time, or both, would
constitute an event of default under this Mortgage, the Note Agreement or the
Notes, the Owner will at all reasonable times afford the Mortgagee or its
authorized representatives, at the Owner's expense, full and complete access to
the Vessel where the same shall be located at the time for the purpose of
inspecting the same and its cargoes and papers. At all reasonable times, the
Owner, at the request of the Mortgagee, will deliver for inspection copies of
any and all contracts and documents relating to the Vessel, whether on board or
not.
ss.1.12. Sale or Other Disposition of the Vessel. (a) The Owner will
---------------------------------------
not sell, mortgage, or transfer the Vessel, unless prior to or concurrently
therewith all Notes shall have been prepaid in full in accordance with paragraph
4B of the Note Agreement.
(b) The Owner will not charter the Vessel to, or permit the Vessel to
serve under any contract of affreightment with, a person included within the
definition of "designated foreign country" or a "national" of a "designated
foreign country" in the "Foreign Assets Control Regulations" or "Cuban Assets
Control Regulations" of the United States Treasury Department, 31 C.F.R. Chapter
V, as amended, within the meaning of said regulations or of any regulation,
interpretation or ruling issued thereunder.
(c) (i) The Owner shall not enter into any demise, bareboat or time
charter with any entity unless (i) the charter is subject to and subordinate to
the rights of the Mortgagee under this Mortgage, and, (ii) in the case of
charters in excess of one year, the charter contains the following provision:
"This Charter is subject and subordinate to a First Preferred
Ship Mortgage in favor of The Prudential Insurance Company of
America, as Mortgagee, and to each of the rights and remedies
of said Mortgagee under said Mortgage and shall be terminable
at the option of said Mortgagee in the event of the
foreclosure of said Mortgage by said Mortgagee, which option
shall be exercisable by the Mortgagee within thirty (30) days
of such foreclosure; provided, the Mortgagee has actual
--------
knowledge of such charter."
(ii) The Owner shall, within ten (10) calendar days of entering into
such charter in excess of a year transmit a copy of the charter to the
Mortgagee.
ss.1.13. Insurance. At all times while and so long as this Mortgage
---------
shall be outstanding:
(a) The Owner will, at its own expense insure the Vessel and keep the
same insured (in lawful money of the United States) for hull and machinery,
employer's liability, pollution liability, war risk, and against protection and
indemnity risks, generally insured against by prudent companies engaged in the
same or similar business, in such form, and with such financially sound and
reputable insurance companies, underwriters, funds, mutual insurance
associations or clubs, acceptable to the Mortgagee, as shall be necessary for
the protection of the Mortgagee and in accordance with the provisions of this
ss.1.13; provided, that the Mortgagee in the exercise of its reasonable
--------
discretion may from time to time require such other or additional insurance as
is then being obtained by prudent shipowners generally.
(b) The Owner will furnish to the Mortgagee, concurrently with the
execution hereof and thereafter together with the delivery of financial
statements under paragraph 5A(ii) of the Note Agreement, a certificate signed by
its chief financial officer setting forth the terms and conditions of the
insurances, including the amount and scope of coverage, deductibles, identity of
underwriters and share of placement by each underwriter with respect to the
insurance carried and maintained on the Vessel together with a statement that
the insurance coverages in place and the amount thereof are prudent and
reasonable taking into account existing industry practices, the operating area
and operation of the Vessel and the risks associated with such operations, and
that such insurance is in compliance with the provisions of this ss.1.13. The
Owner will advise the Mortgagee promptly of any lapse of any such insurance by
expiration, failure to renew or otherwise and of any default in payment of any
premium, whether for new insurance or for insurance replacing, renewing or
extending existing insurance, and of any other act or omission on the part of
the Owner which might invalidate or render unenforceable, or cause the lapse of
or prevent the renewal or extension of, in whole or in part, any insurance on
the Vessel. The Owner will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Mortgagee,
from time to time, upon request, detailed information with respect to any
insurance carried or maintained on the Vessel pursuant to the requirements of
this ss.1.13. The Owner will also advise the Mortgagee, at least fourteen (14)
Business Days prior to the expiration date of any insurance carried pursuant to
this Mortgage, that such insurance has been renewed or replaced with new
insurance which complies with the provisions of this ss.1.13 and such advice
shall be in the same detail in respect to such renewed or replacement insurance
as is required in respect of insurance described in the aforesaid certificate.
(c) Until otherwise required by the Mortgagee, the protection and
indemnity, hull and machinery insurance required by this ss.1.13 may be on the
American Institute or London Institute forms current at the time such insurance
takes effect. Protection and indemnity insurance in respect to the Vessel shall
be by entry per club rules in a United States or British mutual insurance
association or placed with underwriters acceptable to the Mortgagee and shall
include pollution liabilities (including coverage for third party claims,
statutory and governmental cleanup liabilities, penalties and fines in the
minimum amount for any one occurrence of $500,000,000). The deductibles and
franchises for all types of insurance shall not exceed $2,500,000 per
occurrence. For the purposes of insurance against total loss, the Vessel shall
be insured for and valued at an amount at least equal to 110% of the aggregate
unpaid principal amount of the Notes.
(d) All insurance shall be taken out in the names of the Owner and the
Mortgagee as their respective interests may appear; the policies or certificates
shall provide that there shall be no recourse against the Mortgagee for payment
of premiums, assessments, or club calls; all insurance shall provide for at
least fourteen (14) Business Days' prior notice to be given to the Mortgagee by
the underwriters in event of cancellation or any material change in coverage,
except for protection and indemnity insurance, which shall provide for at least
fourteen (14) Business Days' prior notice to be given to the Mortgagee.
(e) All hull and machinery insurance policies or certificates shall
provide that losses thereunder shall be payable to the Mortgagee except to the
extent otherwise provided below, and all insurance moneys received by the
Mortgagee shall be distributed as provided below in this ss.1.13. However, the
policies or certificates may provide that unless the underwriters shall have
been otherwise instructed by notice in writing from the Mortgagee:
(i) any loss under any insurance on the Vessel with respect to
protection and indemnity or collision liability risks may be paid
directly to the person to whom any liability covered by such insurance
has been incurred, or to the Owner to reimburse it for any loss, damage
or expense incurred by it and covered by such insurance; provided, that
--------
in the latter event the underwriter shall have first received evidence
that the liability insured against has been discharged; and
(ii) in the case of any loss (other than a loss covered by
subparagraph (i) above in this paragraph (e) or by paragraph (f) of
this ss.1.13) under any insurance with respect to the Vessel involving
any damage to or liability of the Vessel, the underwriters may pay
directly for the repair, salvage, liability or other charges involved,
or, if the Owner shall have first fully repaired the damage and paid
the cost thereof or discharged the liability or paid other charges and
the underwriters shall have first received evidence thereof, may pay
the Owner as reimbursement therefor; provided, however, that (a) if
-------- -------
such damage involves a loss in excess of Two Million Five Hundred
Thousand Dollars ($2,500,000), the underwriters shall not make such
payment without first obtaining the written consent of the Mortgagee,
and (b) no payment shall be made to the Owner if there shall have
occurred an event of default under this Mortgage, the Note Agreement or
the Notes or an event that, with the giving of notice or the lapse of
time, or both, would constitute an event of default under this
Mortgage, the Note Agreement or the Notes. Any loss which is paid to
the Mortgagee but which should have been paid, in accordance with the
provisions of this paragraph, directly to the Owner, shall be paid by
the Mortgagee to or as directed by the Owner, but only if there shall
not have occurred any event of default under this Mortgage, the Note
Agreement or the Notes, or any event that, with the giving of notice or
lapse of time, or both, would constitute an event of default under this
Mortgage, the Note Agreement or the Notes. In the event of a loss
referred to in clause (a) of the first sentence of this subparagraph
(ii), and if there is no event of default under this Mortgage, the Note
Agreement or the Notes, or any event that, with the giving of notice or
lapse of time, or both, would constitute an event of default under this
Mortgage, the Note Agreement or the Notes, the Mortgagee shall, if
requested by the Owner in writing, consent that the underwriters pay
directly for repairs, liabilities, salvage claims or other charges and
expenses covered by the policies, or if the Owner certifies to the
Mortgagee (such certificate to be accompanied by written confirmation
by the underwriter or a surveyor or adjuster), that all known damage
with respect to the particular loss has been repaired and the cost of
such liabilities, salvage claims, or other charges and expenses
discharged or paid, consent that the underwriters reimburse the Owner
therefor and consent that the underwriters pay any balance to the
Owner.
(f) If there is an Event of Loss, all amounts payable therefor shall be
paid to the Mortgagee and shall be applied in accordance with paragraph 7A of
the Note Agreement.
(g) Upon request of the Mortgagee, the Owner shall deliver to the
Mortgagee certified copies of all cover notes, binders and certificates of entry
in protection and indemnity associations, and all endorsements and riders
amendatory thereof in respect of insurance maintained under this Mortgage.
(h) The Owner agrees that it will not do any act, or voluntarily suffer
or permit any act to be done, whereby any insurance required hereunder shall or
may be suspended, impaired or defeated and will not suffer or permit the Vessel
to engage in any voyage or to carry any cargo not permitted under the policies
of insurance in effect, without first covering the Vessel with the usual and
customary insurance for such voyage or the carriage of such cargo.
(i) In the event that any claim or lien is asserted against the Vessel
for loss, damage or expense which is covered by insurance hereunder, and it is
necessary for the Owner to obtain a bond or supply other security to prevent the
arrest of the Vessel or to release the Vessel from arrest on account of such
claim or lien, the Mortgagee may, in its sole discretion, and upon notice to the
Owner, assign to any person, firm or corporation executing a surety or guarantee
bond or other agreement to save or release the Vessel from such arrest, all
right, title and interest of the Mortgagee in and to said insurance covering
said loss, damage or expense, as collateral security to indemnify such person,
firm or corporation against liability under said bond or other agreement.
ss.1.14. Reimbursement. The Owner will, upon demand therefor, pay or
-------------
reimburse the Mortgagee, with interest at the rate for overdue amounts due on
the Series A Notes, for: (i) any and all expenses or expenditures which the
Mortgagee may from time to time incur or make in connection with insurance
premiums, discharge or purchase of any lien, libel or seizure of the Vessel,
taxes, dues, assessments, governmental charges, fines and penalties, repairs,
reasonable attorneys' fees and any other expenses or expenditures which the
Owner is obligated herein to incur or make, but fails to incur or make; and (ii)
all costs, fees and expenses suffered, incurred or made by the Mortgagee in
exercising, protecting or pursuing its rights or remedies under this Mortgage
(including, but not limited to, expenses of any sale or taking of the Vessel,
reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs). Such obligation of the Owner to
reimburse the Mortgagee shall be an additional indebtedness due from the Owner,
secured by this Mortgage, and shall be payable by the Owner on demand. The
Mortgagee, though privileged so to do, shall be under no obligation to the Owner
or to any other person to incur or make any such expenses or expenditures, nor
shall the incurring or making thereof relieve the Owner of any default in that
respect.
ARTICLE II

right to:

such use of the Vessel and charging upon all receipts from the use of
the Vessel or from the sale thereof by court proceedings or pursuant to
subparagraph (4) next following, all costs, expenses, charges, damages
or losses by reason of such use; and if at any time the Mortgagee shall
avail itself of the right herein given to take the Vessel, the

(4) Take and enter into possession of the Vessel, at any time,
wherever the same may be, without legal process, and if it seems
desirable to the Mortgagee and without being responsible for loss or
damage, sell the Vessel at public or private sale, at any place and at
such time as the Mortgagee may deem advisable, free from any claim by
the Owner in admiralty, in equity, at law or by statute. In the case of
a public sale, the Mortgagee shall give notice of the time and place of
the sale with a general description of the property in the following
manner:
(i) by publishing such notice for ten (10)
consecutive days in a daily newspaper of general circulation
published in the home port and the places of sale of the
Vessel; and
(ii) by mailing a similar notice to the Owner at
least ten (10) days prior to the date fixed for such sale.
In the event that the Vessel shall be offered for sale by a private
sale, no newspaper publication of notice shall be required, but the
Mortgagee shall mail written notice of sale to the Owner at least ten
(10) days prior to the date fixed for entering into the contract of
sale. The Mortgagee may, without notice or publication, adjourn any
public or private sale or cause such sale to be adjourned from time to
time by announcement at the time and place fixed for sale or for
entering into a contract of sale, and such sale or contract of sale
may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which the
sale or contract of sale was so adjourned. The Mortgagee shall not be
obligated to make any sale of the Vessel if it shall determine not to
do so, regardless of the fact that notice of sale may have been given.
Any sale may be conducted without bringing the Vessel to the place
designated for such sale and in such manner as the Mortgagee may deem
to be for the best advantage of the Mortgagee.
(5) Instruct the Owner to terminate any existing management
agreements affecting the Vessel, and the Owner shall, upon the giving
of such instructions by the Mortgagee, immediately terminate any such
management agreements and shall appoint other managers satisfactory to
the Mortgagee and upon terms and conditions satisfactory to the
Mortgagee.
(6) Instruct the Owner to make application, if relevant, to
the United States Maritime Administration ("MarAd") for permission of
-----
MarAd to sell or transfer the Vessel foreign for purposes of scrapping
of the Vessel or other purposes requiring such permission, and the
Owner shall, upon the giving of such instructions by the Mortgagee,
immediately apply for such permission of MarAd.
ss.2.2. Finality of Sale. Any sale of the Vessel made in pursuance of
----------------
this Mortgage, whether by exercise of the power of sale granted herein or by
virtue of any judicial proceedings, shall operate to divest all right, title and
interest of any nature whatsoever of the Owner therein and thereto, and shall
bar the Owner, its successors and assigns, and all persons claiming by, through
or under them. No purchaser shall be bound to inquire whether notice has been
given, or whether any default has occurred, or as to the propriety of the sale,
or as to the application of the proceeds thereof. In the case of any such sale,
any purchaser who is the holder of any of the Obligations shall be entitled, for
the purpose of making settlement or payment for the property purchased and
subject to the sharing provisions among the Purchasers set forth in the
Intercreditor Agreement, to apply the balance due under the Note Agreement or a
part thereof as part or all of the purchase price to the extent of the amount
remaining due and unpaid thereon. At any such sale, the holder of any
Obligations may bid for and purchase such property and upon compliance with the
terms of sale may hold, retain and dispose of such property without further
accountability therefor.
ss.2.3. Appointment of Attorney. (a) The Mortgagee is hereby appointed
-----------------------
attorney-in-fact of the Owner, with full power of substitution, upon the
occurrence of any event of default, to make application, if relevant, to MarAd
for permission of MarAd to sell or transfer the Vessel foreign.
(b) The Mortgagee is hereby appointed attorney-in-fact of the Owner,
with full power of substitution, upon the occurrence of any event of default, to
execute and deliver to any purchaser upon any sale of the Vessel made in
pursuance of this Mortgage, whether by exercise of the power of sale granted
herein or by virtue of any judicial proceedings, and is hereby vested with full
power and authority to make, in the name and in behalf of the Owner, a good
conveyance of the title to the Vessel when so sold. In the event of any sale of
the Vessel by exercise of any power herein contained, the Owner will, if and
when required by the Mortgagee, execute such form of conveyance of the Vessel as
the Mortgagee may direct or approve.
(c) The Mortgagee is hereby irrevocably appointed attorney-in-fact of
the Owner, with full power of substitution, upon the occurrence of any event of
default, in the name of the Owner to demand, collect, receive, compromise and
sue for, so far as may be permitted by law, all freights, hire, earnings,
issues, revenues, income and profits of the Vessel, including all amounts due
from underwriters under any insurance thereon as payment of losses or as return
premiums or otherwise, salvage awards and recoveries, recoveries in general
average or otherwise, and all other sums due or to become due at the time of the
occurrence of any event of default in respect of the Vessel, or in respect of
any insurance thereon, from any person whomsoever, and to make, give and execute
in the name of the Owner acquittance, receipts, releases or other discharges for
the same, whether under seal or otherwise, to take possession of, sell or
otherwise dispose of or manage or employ the Vessel, to execute and deliver
charters and a bill of sale with respect to the Vessel and to endorse and accept
in the name of the Owner all checks, note, drafts, warrants, agreements and
other instruments in writing with respect to the foregoing.
ss.2.4. Additional Rights. Whenever any right to enter and take
-----------------
possession of the Vessel accrues to the Mortgagee, it may require the Owner to
deliver and the Owner shall on demand, at its own cost and expense, deliver the
Vessel to the Mortgagee. If any legal proceedings shall be taken to enforce any
right under this Mortgage, the Mortgagee shall be entitled as a matter of right
to the appointment of a receiver of the Vessel and the freights, hire, earnings,
issues, revenues and profits due or to become due and arising from the operation
thereof.
ss.2.5. Release of Liens. The Owner authorizes and empowers the
----------------
Mortgagee or its appointees or any of them to appear in the name of the Owner,
its successors and assigns, in any court of any country or nation of the world
where a suit is pending against the Vessel because of or on account of any
alleged lien against the Vessel from which the Vessel has not been released and
to take such proceedings as to them may seem proper toward the defense of such
suit, and the purchase or discharge of such lien, and all expenditures made or
incurred by them for the purpose of such defense or purchase or discharge shall
be a debt due from the Owner, its successors and assigns, to the Mortgagee and
shall be secured by the lien of this Mortgage.
ss.2.6. Cumulative Remedies; No Waiver. Each and every power and remedy
------------------------------
herein given to the Mortgagee shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to
every other power and remedy herein given or now or hereafter existing at law,
in equity, in admiralty or by statute, and each and every power and remedy,
whether herein given or otherwise existing, may be exercised from time to time
and as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by the Mortgagee, and
the exercise or the beginning of the exercise of any power or remedy shall not
be construed to be a waiver of the right to exercise at the same time or
thereafter any other consistent or inconsistent power or remedy. No delay or
omission by the Mortgagee in the exercise of any right or power or in the
prosecution of any remedy accruing upon any event of default shall impair any
such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver of any such event of
default or to be an acquiescence therein; nor shall the acceptance by the
Mortgagee of any security or of any payment maturing after any event of default
or of any payment on account of any past default be construed to be a waiver of
any right arising out of any future event of default or of any past event of
default not completely cured thereby. In case the Mortgagee shall have proceeded
to enforce any right, power or remedy under this Mortgage by foreclosure, entry
or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for
any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Mortgagee, then, and
in every such case, the Owner and the Mortgagee shall be restored to their
former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the property subject or
intended to be subject to this Mortgage, and all rights, remedies and powers of
the Mortgagee shall continue as if no such proceedings had been taken.
ss.2.7. Offers to Cure. If at any time after the occurrence of an event
--------------
of default and prior to the actual sale of the Vessel by the Mortgagee or prior
to commencement of any foreclosure proceedings, the Owner offers to cure
completely all events of default and to pay all expenses and advances to the
Mortgagee consequent on such event of default, with interest at the rate of
interest for overdue amounts due on the Series A Notes, then the Mortgagee may,
if it in its sole discretion so elects, accept such offer and payment and
restore the Owner to its former position, but such action shall not affect any
subsequent event of default or impair any rights consequent thereon.
ss.2.8. Application of Proceeds. In the event of any taking of the
-----------------------
Vessel by the Mortgagee or any sale of the Vessel under any of the powers herein
specified, the proceeds of any such sale and the net earnings of any charter
operation or other use of the Vessel by the Mortgagee under any such power,
together with any and all moneys received by the Mortgagee pursuant to or under
the terms of this Mortgage or in any proceedings hereunder or with respect
hereto, the application of which has not elsewhere herein been specifically
provided for, shall be applied as set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement.
ss.2.9. Further Assurances. In the event that this Mortgage or any
------------------
provision hereof, shall be deemed invalid in whole or in part by reason of any
present or future law or any decision of any court having jurisdiction, or if
the documents at any time held by the Mortgagee be deemed by the Mortgagee for
any reason insufficient to carry out the provisions, true intent or spirit of
this Mortgage, then, from time to time, the Owner will execute, on its own
behalf, such other and further assurances and documents as in the opinion of the
Mortgagee may be required more effectually to subject the Vessel to the payment
of the principal sum of the Obligations as herein provided, and to the
performance of the terms and provisions of the Notes, the Note Agreement and
this Mortgage.
ss.2.10. Severability. Any provision of this Mortgage which is
------------
prohibited, unenforceable or not authorized in any jurisdiction shall, as to
such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition,
unenforceability or non-authorization without invalidating the remaining
provisions hereof or affecting the validity, enforceability or legality of such
provision in any other jurisdiction.
ss.2.11. Requisition of Title, Use. (a) In the event that the title or
-------------------------
ownership of the Vessel shall be requisitioned, purchased or taken by any
government of any country or any department, agency or representative thereof,
pursuant to any present or future law, proclamation, decree, order or otherwise,
the lien of this Mortgage shall be deemed to attach to the claim for
compensation therefor, and the compensation, purchase price, reimbursement or
award for such requisition, purchase or other taking of such title or ownership
is hereby agreed to be payable to the Mortgagee, who shall be entitled to
receive the same and shall apply it as provided in the Note Agreement. In the
event of any such requisitioning, purchasing or taking of the Vessel, and the
failure of the Mortgagee to receive proceeds as herein provided, the Owner shall
promptly execute and deliver to the Mortgagee such documents, if any, and shall
promptly do and perform such acts, if any, as in the opinion of the Mortgagee
may be necessary or useful to facilitate or expedite the collection by the
Mortgagee of such part of the compensation, purchase price, reimbursement or
award as is payable to it hereunder.
(b) In the event that any government of any country or any department,
agency or representative thereof shall not take over the title or ownership of
the Vessel but shall requisition, charter or in any manner take over the use of
the Vessel pursuant to any present or future law, proclamation, decree, order or
otherwise and shall, as a result of such requisitioning, chartering or taking of
the use of the Vessel pay or become liable to pay sums by reason of the loss of
or injury to or depreciation of the Vessel, any such sum is hereby made payable
to the Mortgagee, who shall apply it as provided in the Intercreditor Agreement.
In the event of any such requisitioning, chartering or taking of the use of the
Vessel, the Owner shall promptly execute and deliver to the Mortgagee such
documents, if any, and shall promptly do and perform such acts, if any, as in
the reasonable opinion of the Mortgagee may be necessary or useful to facilitate
or expedite the collection by the Mortgagee of such claims arising out of the
requisitioning, chartering or taking of the Vessel.
