*C.K. Limited is the trustee of two trusts (the “Trusts”) settled by Mr. John Fredriksen. The Trusts indirectly hold all of the shares of Greenwich Holdings Limited and GHL Investments Limited. Accordingly, C.K. Limited, as trustee, may be deemed to beneficially own the Units of LLC Interest that are beneficially owned by Greenwich Holdings Limited and owned by GHL Investments Limited.  The beneficiaries of the Trusts are members of Mr. Fredriksen’s family. Mr. Fredriksen is neither a beneficiary nor a trustee of either Trust. Therefore, Mr. Fredriksen has no economic interest in such Units of LLC Interest and Mr. Fredriksen disclaims any control over such Units of LLC Interest, save for any indirect influence he may have with C.K. Limited, as the trustee of the Trusts, in his capacity as the settlor of the Trusts.
