Marenave Schiffahrts AG

Marenave Schiffahrts AG is the first publicly traded German shipping trust organized as a jointstock corporation under German law (AG , Aktiengesellschaft ). It was developed so institutional and private investors could obtain longterm exposure to the shipping market and diversify their portfolios further. Marenave Schiffahrts AG's goal is to set up a diversified portfolio of container vessels, tankers and bulk freighters and to generate income from buying, selling and chartering ships. The fleet currently totals ten units: six panamax and handymax product/chemical tankers, two 1,200 TEU container vessels, one car carrier and one supramax bulk carrier. A further three supramax bulk carriers will be delivered until the beginning of 2011. Longterm charter agreements for the car carrier and the bulkers have secured charter revenues in an amount of approximately USD 260 million. Average ROI for the new investment projects is 15 percent.

The resolutions regarding the capital just resolved at the recent Annual General Meeting puts Marenave Schiffahrts AG in a position to raise fresh capital for the acquisition of additional vessels as needed and given the appropriate market conditions. This will allow the current favorable market phase to be used for targeted fleet expansion and thus an extension of operations in the maritime city of Hamburg.
