Review Report of Independent Accountants
TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND STOCKHOLDERS OF CALIFORNIA
PETROLEUM TRANSPORT CORPORATION
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed balance sheet of
California Petroleum Transport Corporation as of June 30, 2001,
and the related condensed statements of income and the condensed
statement of cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30,
2001 and 2000. These financial statements are the responsibility
of the Company's management.
We conducted our review in accordance with standards established
by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A
review of interim financial information consists principally of
applying analytical procedures to financial data, and making
inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting
matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit
conducted in accordance with United States generally accepted
auditing standards, which will be performed for the full year
with the objective of expressing an opinion regarding the
financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not
express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material
modifications that should be made to the financial statements
referred to above for them to be in conformity with United States
generally accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with United States
generally accepted auditing standards, the balance sheet of
California Petroleum Transport Corporation as at December 31,
2000, and the related statements of income and cash flows for the
year then ended, not presented herein, and in our report dated
March 30, 2001, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those
financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth
3
in the accompanying condensed balance sheet as of December 31,
2000, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to
balance sheet from which it has been derived.

California Petroleum Transport Corporation
Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements
1. GENERAL
Organization and history
California Petroleum Transport Corporation was incorporated
under the laws of the state of Delaware on May 18, 1994.
The company is a special purpose corporation that has been
organized solely for the purpose of issuing as agent Serial
Mortgage Notes and Term Mortgage Notes as full recourse
obligations of the company and loaning the proceeds of the
sale of the Notes to four vessel-owning companies. The
Serial Mortgage Notes and the Term Mortgage Notes were
issued on April 5, 1995.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with United
States generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q
and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not
include all of the information and footnotes required by
generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
included. The principal accounting policies used in the
preparation of these financial statements are set out below.
The balance sheet at December 31, 2000 has been derived from
the audited financial statements at that date but does not
include all of the information and footnotes required by
generally accepted accountancy principles for complete
financial statements.
2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of accounting
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles in the United
States. The preparation of financial statements in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date
of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the period. Actual results
9
could differ from those estimates. The following are the
significant accounting policies adopted by the Company:
Cash and cash equivalents
For the purposes of the consolidated statements of cash
flows, all demand and time deposits and highly liquid, low
risk investments with original maturities of three months or
less are considered equivalent to cash.
Revenue and expense recognition
Interest receivable on the Serial Loans and on the Term
Loans is accrued on a daily basis. Interest payable on the
Serial Mortgage Notes and on the Term Mortgage Notes is
accrued on a daily basis. General and administrative
expenses incurred by the company are reimbursed by the
vessel-owning companies.
Deferred charges
Deferred charges represent the capitalisation of debt issue
costs. These costs are amortised over the term of the Notes
to which they relate.
3. SERIAL LOANS
The principal balances of the Serial Loans earn interest at
rates ranging from 7.44% to 7.62% and mature over a six-year
period beginning April 1, 2001. The loans are reported net
of the related discounts, which are amortised over the term
of the loans.
4. TERM LOANS
The principal balances of the Term Loans earn interest at a
rate of 8.52% per annum and are to be repaid over a twelve-
year period beginning nine years from April 1, 1995. The
loans are reported net of the related discounts, which are
amortised over the term of the loans.
5. SERIAL MORTGAGE NOTES
The Serial Mortgage Notes bear interest at rates ranging
from 7.44% to 7.62% through maturity. The Notes mature over
a six-year period beginning April 1, 2001. Interest is
payable semi-annually.
10
6. TERM MORTGAGE NOTES
The Term Mortgages Notes bear interest at a rate of 8.52%
per annum. Principal is repayable on the Term Mortgage
