CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Matters discussed in this report may constitute forward-looking statements. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides safe harbor protections for forward-looking statements in order to encourage companies to provide prospective information about their business. Forward-looking statements include statements concerning plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events or performance, and underlying assumptions and other statements, which are other than statements of historical facts.

We desire to take advantage of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and are including this cautionary statement in connection with this safe harbor legislation. This report and any other written or oral statements made by us or on our behalf may include forward-looking statements, which reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. When used in this report, the words "anticipate," "believe," "expect," "intend," "estimate," "forecast," "project," "plan," "potential," "may," "will," "should," and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements.

The forward-looking statements in this report are based upon various assumptions, many of which are based, in turn, upon further assumptions, including without limitation, management's examination of historical operating trends, data contained in our records and other data available from third-parties. Important assumptions relating to the forward-looking statements include, among other things, assumptions regarding demand for our products, the cost and availability of refined marine fuel from suppliers, pricing levels, the timing and cost of capital expenditures, competitive conditions, and general economic conditions. These assumptions could prove inaccurate. Although we believe that these assumptions were reasonable when made, because these assumptions are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies that are difficult or impossible to predict and are beyond our control, we cannot assure you that we will achieve or accomplish these expectations, beliefs or projections.

In addition to these assumptions and matters discussed elsewhere herein, important factors that, in our view, could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements include:

the strength of the world economies and currencies;

general market conditions, including conditions in the shipping or the marine fuel supply industries;

our future operating or financial results;

the availability of financing and refinancing;

material disruptions in the availability or supply of crude oil or refined petroleum products;

changes in the market price of petroleum, including the volatility of spot pricing;

our future, pending or recent acquisitions, business strategy, areas of possible expansion, and expected capital spending or operating expenses;

our ability to manage our growth;

our ability to successfully consummate, integrate, and realize the expected benefits from acquisitions;

our ability to maintain our business in light of our proposed business and location expansion;

planned capital expenditures and availability of capital resources to fund capital expenditures;

our future payment of dividends and the availability of cash for payment of dividends;

the outcome of legal, tax or regulatory proceedings to which we may become a party;

our ability to retain our key suppliers and key customers;

our contracts and licenses with governmental entities remaining in full force and effect;

competition within our industry;

compliance or lack of compliance with various environmental, tax, safety and other applicable laws and regulations;

our ability to collect accounts receivable;

general domestic and international political conditions;

changes in economic or regulatory conditions in the markets in which we operate, and the world in general;

corruption, piracy, militant activities, political instability, terrorism, and ethnic unrest in locations where we may operate;

our level of indebtedness;

the failure of counterparties to fully perform their contracts with us;

our ability to attract and retain senior management and other key employees;

our failure to hedge certain financial risks associated with our business;

uninsured losses; our ability to maintain our current tax treatment;

effects of new products and new technology in our industry;

our ability to comply with the restrictive and other covenants in our financing arrangements;

our levels of operating and maintenance costs;

increases in interest rates;

adequacy of insurance coverage;

other important factors described from time to time in our filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC.

These factors and the other risk factors described in this report are not necessarily all of the important factors that could cause actual results or developments to differ materially from those expressed in any of our forward-looking statements. Other unknown or unpredictable factors also could harm our results. Consequently, there can be no assurance that actual results or developments anticipated by us will be realized or, even if substantially realized, that they will have the expected consequences to, or effects on, us. These forward looking statements are not guarantees of our future performance, and actual results and developments may vary materially from those projected in the forward looking statements. Given these uncertainties, prospective investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation, and specifically decline any obligation, except as required by law, to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

For the definition and calculation of gross spread on marine petroleum products and a reconciliation to U.S. GAAP measures, please see "Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—A. Operating Results—Factors Affecting our Results of Operations—Gross spread on marine petroleum products and gross spread per metric ton of marine fuel sold."

(2)	For the definition and calculation of EBITDA and a reconciliation to U.S. GAAP measures, please see "Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—A. Operating Results—Factors Affecting our Results of Operations—EBITDA."

(3)	The sales volume of marine fuel is the volume of sales of marine fuel oil, or MFO, and marine gas oil, or MGO, for the relevant period and is denominated in metric tons. We do not utilize the sales volume of lubricants as an indicator.

(4)

The number of markets served is an indicator of the geographical distribution of our operations and affects both the amount of revenues and expenses that we record during a given period. The number of markets served includes our operations in the Greece (Piraeus and Patra), Gibraltar, United Arab Emirates (Fujairah, Khor Fakkan), Northern Europe (the Antwerp-Rotterdam-Amsterdam region, or the ARA region, and Belgium), West Africa (beginning in January 2008 and until December 2012), Jamaica, Singapore, Canada (Vancouver and Montreal), United Kingdom (Portland until September 2015 and French Atlantic), Southern Caribbean (Trinidad and Tobago), Morocco (Tanger-Med), Canary Islands (Las Palmas and Tenerife beginning in June 2011), Panama, Hong Kong (from September 2012 until June 2013), Spain (Barcelona and Algeciras, beginning in April 2013 and August 2013, respectively), the U.S. East and West Coasts (beginning in December 2013 and December 2014, respectively), the Gulf of Mexico (beginning in December 2014), Germany (beginning in January 2015) and Russia (beginning in January 2015).

(5)	Bunkering vessels include both bunkering tankers and barges. This data does not include our special purpose vessel, the Aegean Orion , a 550 dwt tanker, which is based in Greece.

(6)

Average number of operating bunkering vessels is the number of operating bunkering vessels in our fleet for the relevant period, as measured by the sum of the number of days each bunkering vessel was used as a part of our fleet during the period divided by the cumulative number of calendar days in the period multiplied by the number of operating bunkering vessels at the end of the period. This figure does not take into account non-operating days due to either scheduled or unscheduled maintenance.

(7)	This figure includes our special purpose vessel, the Aegean Orion , which is based in Greece.

(8)

This figure includes our Aframax tanker, the Leader , which we used as a floating storage facility in the United Arab Emirates until it was sold on September 5, 2014. We used our Panamax tankers, the Fos II and Aeolos , as storage facilities until April 2011 and February 2013, respectively, when the vessels were sold. In 2010, we also acquired another barge, the Tapuit , which operated in Northern Europe until it was sold during March 2015. In November 2011, we chartered a product tanker, the Rio Luxembourg , which was used as a floating storage facility in Ghana until December 2012. We had an on-land storage facility in Portland (United Kingdom) until its closure in September 2015. We currently operate on-land storage facilities in the Canary Islands, United Arab Emirates, Morocco, Panama, the United States, Germany and Spain. The ownership of storage facilities allows us to mitigate risk of supply shortages. Generally, storage costs are included in the price of refined marine fuel quoted by local suppliers. We expect that the ownership of storage facilities will allow us to convert the variable costs of a storage fee mark-up per metric ton quoted by suppliers into fixed costs of operating our own storage facilities, thus enabling us to spread larger sales volumes over a fixed cost base and to decrease our marine petroleum products costs.

C.	Reasons for the Offer and Use of Proceeds

D.	Risk Factors

The following risks relate principally to the industry in which we operate and our business in general. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only risks that we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations. Any of these risks may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows and the trading price of our securities could decline.

Risk Factors Relating to Our Company

A renewed contraction or worsening of the global credit markets and economic conditions and the resulting volatility in the financial markets could have a material adverse impact on our ability to obtain sufficient funds to grow or effectively manage our growth.

A principal focus of our strategy is to grow by expanding our business. Our future growth depends, in part, on our ability to obtain financing for our existing and new operations and business lines. In recent years, global financial markets have experienced volatility following contraction, deleveraging and reduced liquidity in the global credit markets. In addition, a number of major financial institutions have experienced serious financial difficulties and, in some cases, have entered into bankruptcy proceedings or are subject to regulatory enforcement actions. These difficulties have been compounded by a general decline in the willingness by banks and other financial institutions to extend credit and may adversely affect the financial institutions that may provide us with credit to support our working capital requirements. In addition, these difficulties may impair the ability of our lenders to continue to perform under their financing obligations to us, which could negatively impact our ability to fund current and future obligations. These economic factors may have a material adverse effect on our ability to expand our business.

Further, as a result of the economic downturn in Greece resulting from the sovereign debt crisis and the related austerity measures implemented by the Greek government, our operations in Greece may be subjected to new regulations that may require us to incur new or additional compliance or other administrative costs and may require that we pay to the Greek government new taxes or other fees. Furthermore, changes in the Greek government and potential shifts in its policies may undermine Greece's political and economic stability, which may adversely affect our operations located in Greece. We also face the risk that strikes, work stoppages, civil unrest and violence within Greece may disrupt our shoreside operations located in Greece.

Our future growth depends on a number of additional factors, including our ability to:

increase our fleet of bunkering vessels;

identify suitable markets for expansion;

consummate vessel acquisitions at attractive prices, which may not be possible if asset prices rise too quickly;

integrate acquired vessels, or other assets or businesses successfully with our existing operations;

hire, train and retain qualified personnel to manage and operate our growing business and fleet;

improve our operating, financial and accounting systems and controls;

maintain or improve our credit control procedures;

obtain required financing for our existing and new operations;

obtain and maintain required governmental authorizations, licenses and permits for new and existing operations;

manage relationships with our customers and suppliers;

provide timely service at competitive prices; and

attract and retain customers.

A deficiency in any of these factors may negatively impact our ability to generate cash flow, raise money or effectively manage our growth. In addition, competition from other companies could reduce our expansion or acquisition opportunities, cause us to lose business opportunities, competitive advantages or customers or cause us to pay higher or charge lower prices than we might otherwise pay or charge. Competitive conditions in the markets that we may consider for future expansion may also be more adverse to us than those in markets served by our existing service centers, and any new markets that we may service may be less profitable than our existing markets.

We may not be in compliance with the covenants contained in our debt agreements.

Certain of our credit facilities, which are secured by mortgages on our vessels or other assets, require us to maintain specified financial ratios, mainly to ensure that the market value of the mortgaged vessels under the applicable credit facility, determined in accordance with the terms of that facility, does not fall below a certain percentage of the outstanding amount of the loan, which we refer to as a security value. In addition, certain of our credit facilities require us to satisfy certain other financial covenants. In general, these financial covenants require us to maintain, among other things, (i) a minimum market value adjusted net worth or book net worth; (ii) a minimum current ratio; (iii) a minimum amount of liquidity and a minimum liquidity ratio; (iv) a maximum ratio of total liabilities to total assets; and (v) a minimum working capital.

A breach of any of these, or other, covenants in our debt agreements would prevent us from borrowing additional money under our credit facilities and could constitute an event of default under our credit facilities, which, unless cured within the grace period set forth under the credit facility, if applicable, or waived or modified by our lenders, may provide our lenders with the right to, among other things, require us to post additional collateral, enhance our equity and liquidity, increase our interest payments, pay down our indebtedness to a level where we are in compliance with our loan covenants, sell vessels in our fleet and accelerate our indebtedness and foreclose their liens on our vessels and the other assets securing the credit facilities, which would impair our ability to continue to conduct our business. In the past, we have not been in compliance with some of the financial covenants in our credit facilities and have obtained waivers from our lenders for such non-compliance.

Furthermore, certain of our debt agreements contain cross-default provisions that may be triggered by a default under one of our other debt agreements. A cross default provision means that a default on one loan would result in a default on certain of our other loans. The occurrence of any event of default, or our inability to obtain a waiver from our lenders in the event of a default, could result in certain or all of our indebtedness being accelerated or the foreclosure of the liens on our vessels by our lenders as described above. If our secured indebtedness is accelerated in full or in part, it would be very difficult in the current financing environment for us to refinance our debt or obtain additional financing and we could lose our vessels and other assets securing our credit facilities if our lenders foreclose their liens, which would adversely affect our ability to conduct our business.

Moreover, in connection with any waivers of or amendments to our credit facilities that we have obtained, or may obtain in the future, our lenders may impose additional operating and financial restrictions on us or modify the terms of our existing credit facilities. These restrictions may further restrict our ability to, among other things, pay dividends, make capital expenditures or incur additional indebtedness, including through the issuance of guarantees. Our lenders may also require the payment of additional fees, require prepayment of a portion of our indebtedness to them, accelerate the amortization schedule for our indebtedness and increase the interest rates they charge us on our outstanding indebtedness. See "Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—B. Liquidity and Capital Resources.

In addition, under the terms of our credit facilities, our payment of dividends or other payments to shareholders as well as our subsidiaries' payment of dividends to us is subject to no event of default. See "Item 8. Financial Information—Dividend Policy."

As of December 31, 2015, we were in compliance with all of the financial covenants contained in our credit facilities.

Restrictive covenants in our credit facilities impose operating restrictions on us that limit our corporate activities, which could negatively affect our growth and cause our financial performance to suffer.

Our credit facilities contain covenants that impose operating restrictions on us. Such restrictions affect, and in many respects limit or prohibit, among other things, our ability to pay dividends, incur additional indebtedness, create liens, sell assets, or engage in mergers or acquisitions. These restrictions could limit our ability to plan for or react to market conditions or meet extraordinary capital needs or otherwise restrict corporate activities. These restrictions could adversely affect our ability to finance our future operations or capital needs or to engage in other business activities which will be in our interest.

Our ability to comply with covenants and restrictions contained in our credit facilities may be affected by events beyond our control, including prevailing economic, financial and industry conditions. If market or other economic conditions worsen, we may fail to comply with these covenants. If we breach any of the restrictions, covenants or ratios in our credit facilities, our obligations may become immediately due and payable, and the lenders' commitment, if any, to make further loans may terminate. A default under any of our credit facilities could also result in foreclosure on any of our vessels and other assets securing the related loans. The occurrence of any of these events could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flows, financial condition and ability to pay dividends.

In addition, our discretion is limited because we may need to obtain the consent from our lenders in order to engage in certain corporate actions. Our lenders' interests may be different from ours, and we may not be able to obtain our lenders' consent when needed or at all. This may prevent us from taking actions that are in our security holders' best interest.

We may not have the ability to raise the funds necessary to pay interest on our 4.00% Convertible Unsecured Senior Notes due 2018, to repurchase the notes upon a fundamental change or to settle conversions of the notes in cash. We may also be restricted from satisfying our obligations upon the occurrence of a fundamental change.

Our 4.00% Convertible Unsecured Senior Notes due 2018 bear interest semi-annually at a rate of 4.00% per year. In addition, in certain circumstances, we are obligated to pay additional interest or special interest on the notes. If a fundamental change occurs, holders of the notes may require us to repurchase all or a portion of their notes in cash. The terms of our credit facilities may also restrict our ability to repurchase all or a portion of the notes upon a fundamental change in certain circumstances. The occurrence of certain events that constitute a fundamental change also constitute an event of default under some of our credit agreements. Furthermore, upon conversion of any notes, unless we elect (or are required) to deliver solely shares of our common stock to settle the conversion (excluding cash in lieu of delivering fractional shares of our common stock), we must make cash payments in respect of the notes. Any of the cash payments described above could be significant, and we may not have enough available cash or be able to obtain financing so that we can make such payments when due. If we fail to pay interest on the notes, repurchase the notes when required or deliver the consideration due upon conversion, we will be in default under the indenture which governs the notes.

In the event the conditional conversion feature of our 4.00% Convertible Unsecured Senior Notes due 2018 is triggered, holders of such notes will be entitled to convert such notes at any time during specified periods at their option. Even if holders do not elect to convert their notes, we could be required under applicable accounting rules to reclassify all or a portion of the outstanding principal of the notes as a current rather than long-term liability, which would result in a material reduction of our net working capital.

An inability to obtain financing for our growth or to fund our future capital expenditures could negatively impact our results of operations and financial condition.

Our business strategy is based in part upon the expansion of our business to new, or within existing, markets. In order to fund future vessel acquisitions, expansion into new and existing markets and products, increased working capital levels, or capital expenditures, we will be required to use cash from operations, incur borrowings or raise capital through the sale of debt or equity securities in the public or private markets. Use of cash for the above described purposes would reduce cash available for dividend distributions to you. Our ability to obtain additional bank financing or access the capital markets for any future offerings may be significantly limited by the volatility in the global financial markets and the adverse changes in the global credit markets. These adverse market conditions and other contingencies and uncertainties are beyond our control. Our ability to obtain additional bank financing will also depend on our financial condition, which may be adversely affected by prevailing economic conditions.

Our failure to obtain funds for such purposes could impact our results of operations and financial condition. The issuance of additional equity securities would dilute your interest in us and reduce dividends payable to our shareholders. Even if we are successful in obtaining additional bank financing, paying debt service would limit cash available for working capital and increasing our indebtedness could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

In addition, we will incur significant maintenance costs for our fleet. Our vessels are generally required to be drydocked approximately every 30 to 60 months for major repairs and maintenance that cannot be performed while the vessels are operating, not including any unexpected repairs. We estimate the cost to drydock a vessel to be between $0.2 million and $1.2 million, depending on the size and condition of the vessel and the location of drydocking.

If we do not generate or reserve enough cash flow from operations to pay for our capital expenditures, we may need to incur additional indebtedness or enter into alternative financing arrangements, which may be on terms that are unfavorable to us. If we are unable to fund our obligations or to secure financing, it would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

Business acquisition and co-operation opportunities may present increased risks and uncertainties, which if realized, could result in costs that outweigh the financial benefit of such opportunities.

As part of our growth strategy, we intend to explore acquisition and co-operation opportunities of marine fuel supply and complementary businesses. Business acquisitions and co-operation opportunities, such as these, could expose us to additional business and operating risks and uncertainties, including:

the ability to effectively integrate and manage acquired businesses and assets;

the ability to realize our investment in the acquired businesses and assets;

the diversion of management's time and attention from other business concerns;

the risk of entering markets in which we may have no or limited direct prior experience;

the potential loss of key employees of the acquired businesses;

the risk that an acquisition could reduce our future earnings; and

exposure to unknown liabilities.

Growing any business by acquisition presents numerous risks, such as undisclosed liabilities and obligations, difficulty in obtaining additional qualified personnel, managing relationships with customers and suppliers and integrating newly acquired operations into existing infrastructures. For example, in December 2014, we filed a breach of contract claim against Hess Corporation (NYSE: HES), or Hess, for the breach of certain representations and warranties in connection with our acquisition of its East Coast bunkering business. The case is still pending as of the date of this annual report. For additional information, please see "Item 8.A. Financial Information—Consolidated Statements and Other Financial Information—Legal Proceedings."

Our management may not properly evaluate the risks inherent in any particular transaction. In addition, the expansion of our business may impose significant additional responsibilities on our management and staff, and may necessitate that we increase the number of personnel. We cannot give any assurance that we will be successful in executing our growth plans or that we will not incur significant expenses and losses in connection with our future growth.

In addition, the terms of our credit facilities may also restrict our ability to expand or contract our business. In the current economic and regulatory climate, it may be especially difficult to assess the risks involved in a particular transaction due to uncertainty in government responses to market volatility and the contracted credit markets.

Furthermore, future acquisitions could result in the incurrence of substantial additional indebtedness and other expenses. Future acquisitions may also result in potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities and may affect the market price of our common shares. Difficulties encountered with acquisitions may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Purchasing and operating secondhand vessels may expose us to increased operating risks because of the quality of those vessels and the lack of builders' or sellers' warranty protection.

Our fleet renewal and expansion strategy includes the acquisition of secondhand vessels as well as newbuildings. Unlike newbuildings, secondhand vessels typically do not carry warranties with respect to their condition. Our inspections of secondhand vessels would normally not provide us with as much knowledge of its condition as we would possess if the vessel had been built for us and operated by us throughout its life. Repairs and maintenance costs for secondhand vessels may be more substantial than for vessels we have operated since they were built. These costs could decrease our profits and reduce our liquidity.

Material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting could negatively affect shareholder and customer confidence towards our financial reporting and other aspects of our business.

Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that material financial and non-financial information that we prepare for public disclosure is recorded, processed, summarized and reported in a timely manner, and that it is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our President and Principal Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding such disclosure. Because there are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including our internal control over financial reporting, controls and procedures may not prevent or detect misstatements. Our management, with the participation of our President and Principal Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures and concluded that as of December 31, 2015, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting.

However, our management, with the participation of our President and Principal Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, in evaluating the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, concluded that as of December 31, 2014, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective due to material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting. These material weaknesses resulted in classification errors that were identified subsequent to the issuance of our earnings release for the three months and year ended December 31, 2014. The classification errors were corrected in our audited consolidated balance sheet, statement of income and statement of cash flows for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, which are included in this annual report.

Although we have remediated these material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, additional determinations that there are material weaknesses in the effectiveness of our material controls and procedures would reduce our ability to obtain financing or could increase the cost of any financing we obtain and require additional expenditures to comply with applicable requirements.

Due to the lack of diversification in our lines of business, adverse developments in the marine fuel supply business would negatively impact our results of operations and financial condition.

We rely primarily on the revenues generated from our business of physical supply and marketing of refined marine fuel and lubricants to end customers. Due to the lack of diversification in our line of business, an adverse development in our marine fuel supply business would have a significant impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The market value of our vessels may fluctuate significantly, and we may incur impairment charges or incur losses when we sell vessels following a decline in their market value.

The fair market value of the vessels that we currently own or may acquire in the future may increase or decrease depending on a number of factors, including general economic and market conditions affecting the international marine fuel supply industry, including competition from other marine fuel supply companies, types, sizes and ages of our vessels, supply and demand for bunkering tankers, costs of newbuildings and governmental or other regulations. If we sell any vessel when vessel prices have fallen and before we have recorded an impairment charge to our financial statements, the sale may be at less than the vessel's carrying amount on our financial statements, resulting in a loss. Such loss could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and our ability to pay dividends to our shareholders.

Furthermore, we evaluate the carrying amounts of our vessels to determine if events have occurred that would require an impairment of their carrying amounts. The recoverable amount of vessels is reviewed when events and changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets might not be recovered. The review for potential impairment indicators and projection of future cash flows related to the vessels is complex and requires us to make various estimates. Some of these items have been historically volatile. If the recoverable amount is less than the carrying amount of the vessel, the vessel is deemed impaired. The carrying values of our vessels may not represent their fair market value at any point in time because the new market prices of secondhand vessels tend to fluctuate with, among other things, the cost of newbuildings. Any impairment charges incurred could negatively affect our financial condition and operating results.

We may experience impairment of the value of long-lived assets.

The value of our long-lived assets can become impaired, as indicated by factors such as changes in our stock price, book value or market capitalization, and the past and anticipated operating performance and cash flows of operations. We test for impairment, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. Please see "Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—A. Operating Results—Critical Accounting Policies—Impairment of Long-lived Assets."

If we are unable to comply with existing or modified environmental laws and regulations relating to our fuel storage facilities, we would be exposed to significant compliance costs and liabilities.

Our operations involving the transportation and storage of fuel are subject to stringent laws and regulations governing the discharge of materials into the environment, otherwise relating to protection of the environment, operational safety and related matters. Compliance with these laws and regulations increases our overall cost of business, including our capital costs to maintain and upgrade equipment and facilities, or claims for damages to property or persons resulting from our operations. Failure to comply with these laws and regulations may result in the assessment of administrative, civil, and criminal penalties, the imposition of investigatory and remedial liabilities, and the issuance of injunctions that may restrict or prohibit our operations or even claims of damages to property or persons resulting from our operations. The laws and regulations applicable to our operations are subject to change, and compliance with current and future laws and regulations may have a material effect on our results of operations or earnings. A discharge of hazardous materials into the environment could, to the extent such event is not insured, subject us to substantial expense, including both the cost to comply with applicable laws and regulations and liability to private parties for personal injury or property damage.

We are subject to certain risks with respect to our counterparties on contracts, including, without limitation, our bunker supply and sale agreements , and failure of such counterparties to meet their obligations could cause us to suffer losses or negatively impact our results of operations and cash flows.

We have entered into, and may enter in the future, various contracts, including, without limitation, bunker supply and sale agreements . Such agreements subject us to counterparty risks. The ability and willingness of each of our counterparties to perform its obligations under a contract with us will depend on a number of factors that are beyond our control and may include, among other things, general economic conditions, the condition of the maritime and offshore industries, fluctuations in the price of oil, the overall financial condition of the counterparty. In addition, we are also subject to the risk that we could be held accountable for the failure of these counterparties to comply with the laws and regulations applicable to them.

Furthermore, with respect to our bunker supply and sale agreements , during periods of decreased fuel prices, our customers may seek to renegotiate the terms of their bunker supply and sale agreements or avoid their obligations under those contracts altogether. If our customers fail to meet their obligations to us or attempt to renegotiate their agreements with us, it may be difficult to secure substitute arrangements, and any new arrangements we secure may be at lower rates. As a result, we could sustain significant losses which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, as well as our ability to pay dividends on our common shares and interest on our debt securities and comply with covenants in our credit facilities.

Most of our customers are not obligated to continue to contract our services and if some of our key customers reduce or terminate their purchases, our results of operations would decrease.

Generally, we have not derived a significant amount of revenue from written volume commitments from our key customers or any other understandings with our key customers that relate to future purchases. Purchases by our key customers could be reduced or terminated at any time. A substantial reduction or a termination of purchases by any of our key customers could decrease our results of operations.

We extend trade credit to most of our customers and our financial position and results of operations may diminish if we are unable to collect accounts receivable.

We extend trade credit to most of our customers. Our success in attracting business has been due, in part, to our willingness to extend trade credit on an unsecured basis to our customers. As of December 31, 2015, 62 of our customers, representing 74% of our total customers, had outstanding balances with us of at least $1.0 million under the lines of credit that we have extended to them. Our credit procedures and policies do not fully eliminate customer credit risk. The adverse changes in world credit markets over the last several years may cause these numbers to increase if our customers cannot borrow money and are illiquid. We may not be able to collect on the outstanding balances of our customers if any of our customers enter bankruptcy proceedings. For example, we currently have $6.8 million receivables outstanding, of which $1.4 million is secured, from O.W. Bunker AS and certain of its subsidiaries, which we refer to collectively as O.W. Bunker, which filed for bankruptcy protection in November 2014, which may not be recoverable.

Losses due to nonpayment by our customers, if significant, would diminish our financial position and results of operations.

We depend on a number of key suppliers, which makes us susceptible to supply shortages or price fluctuations that could diminish our operating results.

We currently purchase refined marine petroleum products from a number of key suppliers. If our relationship with any of our key suppliers terminates or if any of our key suppliers suffers a disruption in production, we may not be able to obtain a sufficient quantity of refined marine fuel and lubricants on acceptable terms and without interruption in our business. We may experience difficulties and delays in obtaining marine fuel from alternative sources of supply. Any interruption or delay in the supply of marine fuel, or the inability to obtain fuel from alternate sources at acceptable prices and within a reasonable amount of time, would impair our ability to meet scheduled deliveries to our customers and could cause customers to cancel orders, which would weaken our financial condition and reduce our results of operations.

The refined marine fuel that we purchase from our suppliers may fail to meet the contractual specifications that we have agreed to supply to our customers and, as a result, we could lose business from those customers and be subject to claims or other liabilities.

If the refined marine fuel that we purchase from our suppliers fails to meet the specifications we have contractually agreed to supply to our customers, we could be subject to claims or other liabilities. In addition, our relationship with our customers may be adversely affected or we could lose our customers. Our insurance policies that protect us against most of the risks involved in the conduct of our business may not be adequate and we may not have any recourse against our suppliers for marine fuel that fails to meet agreed specifications. The loss of customers and increased liabilities would reduce our earnings and could have a material adverse effect on our business, weaken our financial condition and reduce our results of operations.

If Aegean Oil or third-party physical suppliers fail to provide services to us and our customers as agreed, we would be subject to customer claims which could negatively affect our business and results of operations.

We have contracted with Aegean Oil to provide various services to our customers in Greece, including fueling of vessels in port and at sea. Aegean Oil is a related company owned and controlled by members of the family of Mr. Dimitris Melisanidis, our founder and Head of Corporate Development. Mr. Melisanidis may also be deemed a control person of Aegean Oil and other entities affiliated with us for U.S. securities law purposes, but Mr. Melisanidis disclaims such control. In connection with our marine fuel trading activities, from time to time, we contract with other third-party physical suppliers to deliver marine fuel to our customers in markets where we do not have service centers. The failure of Aegean Oil or any other third-party physical supplier to perform these services in accordance with the terms we have agreed with them and our customers could affect our relationships with our customers and subject us to claims and other liabilities which could harm our business or negatively affect our financial results. If Aegean Oil or any third-party physical suppliers fails to perform its obligations to us, you will not have any recourse directly against Aegean Oil or the third-party physical suppliers.

Agreements between us, Aegean Oil and other affiliated entities may be more favorable or less favorable than agreements that we could obtain from unaffiliated third-parties.

The marine fuel service supply agreement and other agreements we have with Aegean Oil, our largest supplier of marine petroleum products, as well as other agreements we have with affiliated entities, have been made in the context of an affiliated relationship. Aegean Oil and other affiliated entities are owned and controlled by members of Mr. Melisanidis' family. Mr. Melisanidis has also historically been involved with our related companies and had a leadership role with respect to the promotion of their products and services. The negotiation of the marine fuel service supply agreement and our other contractual arrangements may have resulted in prices and other terms that are more favorable or less favorable to us than terms we might have obtained in arm's-length negotiations with unaffiliated third-parties for similar services because at the time of the negotiations, Mr. Melisanidis was, and continues to be, a major shareholder through his ownership of certain entities he controls. Moreover, Aegean Oil and other affiliated entities remain our related companies, and we remain subject to similar risks in future business dealings with these parties. Please see "Item 7. Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions—B. Related Party Transactions."

We are vulnerable to price fluctuations of marine fuel, which may result in the reduced value of our inventory and cause us to suffer financial loss.

Due to the nature of our business, we may increase the volume of our marine fuel inventories. Depending upon the price and price movement of refined marine fuel, our marine fuel inventories may subject us to a risk of financial loss.

Furthermore, marine fuel prices have been volatile in the recent past and may continue to be volatile in the future due to factors outside of our control. These factors include, among others, global economic conditions, changes in global crude oil prices, expected and actual supply and demand for marine fuel, political conditions, laws and regulations related to environmental matters (including those mandating or incentivizing alternative energy sources or otherwise addressing global climate change), changes in pricing or production controls by the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), technological advances affecting energy consumption and supply, energy conservation efforts, price and availability of alternative energy sources, and the weather.

Although we conservatively manage risks related to such fluctuations, we have no control over the changing market value of our inventory, and pricing terms with our suppliers and customers and hedges by way of oil futures or other instruments, that we have entered, or will enter into, may not adequately protect us in the event of a substantial downward movement in the price of marine fuel. Please see "—Changes in the market price of petroleum may increase our credit losses, reduce our liquidity and decrease our profitability" and "Item 11. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk."

Our business and our customers' businesses are vulnerable to currency exchange fluctuations, which could negatively affect our results of operations and cash flows and reduce our profitability.

Generally, in all of our service centers, we invoice our customers for the sale and delivery of marine petroleum products in U.S. dollars. Many of our customers are foreign customers and may be required to obtain U.S. dollars to pay for our products and services. A rapid depreciation or devaluation in a currency affecting our customers could have an adverse effect on our customers' operations and their ability to convert local currency to U.S. dollars to make required payments to us. This would in turn result in credit losses for us, which would reduce our results of operations and cash flows.

Should we enter certain markets where payments and receipts are denominated in local currency or should either the international oil and gas markets or the international shipping markets change their base currency from the U.S. dollar to another international currency such as the Euro, the impact on our dollar-denominated consolidated statements of income may be significant.

Due to the minimal historic impact of foreign exchange fluctuations on our operations, it is our policy to not enter into hedging arrangements in respect of our foreign currency exposures related to our sales and purchases. However, we currently hedge our exposure on loan repayments denominated in foreign currencies.

Please see "Item 11. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk."

Failure to comply with anti-bribery laws could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, including as a result of criminal, civil and employment sanctions as well as negative publicity.

Our operations are subject to various anti-bribery laws, including the U.K. Bribery Act 2010 and the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977. Our employees and/or third parties acting as agents for us could engage in fraudulent behavior against us on their own or others' initiative, making them act against our interests. Such actions could include, entering into agreements with our competitors limiting free competition, document fraud, port bribes, fraudulent commission agreements, facilitation payments and bribes to get access to exclusive business. Whether intentional or not, such actions could potentially put us at risk for both legal liabilities and reputational harm.

We may be unable to attract and retain key personnel, which could interrupt our business and limit our growth.

Our success depends to a significant degree upon the abilities and efforts of our management team and our ability to hire and retain key members of our management team. The loss of any of these individuals, or our inability to attract and retain qualified personnel, could adversely affect our business prospects and financial condition. Difficulty in hiring and retaining key personnel could negatively impact our results of operations and financial condition. We do not, nor do we intend to, maintain "key man" life insurance on any of our officers or our board members, including Mr. Peter C. Georgiopoulos, the Chairman of our Board of Directors, and Mr. Dimitris Melisanidis, our founder and Head of Corporate Development. We believe that Mr. Georgiopoulos is an important member of our Board of Directors and Mr. Melisanidis is an important member of our management team and that the loss of the services or involvement in our business on the part of either or both of them would have a material adverse effect on our Company. We have entered into employment agreements with Mr. Melisanidis, Mr. E. Nikolas Tavlarios, our President and Mr. Spyros Gianniotis, our Chief Financial Officer.

As we expand our fleet, we may not be able to recruit suitable employees and crew for our vessels, which may limit our growth and cause our financial performance to suffer.

As we expand our fleet, we will need to recruit suitable crew, shoreside, administrative and management personnel. We may not be able to continue to hire suitable employees as we expand our vessel fleet. If we are unable to recruit suitable employees and crews, we may not be able to provide our services to customers, our growth may be limited and our financial performance may suffer.

A portion of our employees are covered by national collective bargaining agreements, which set minimum standards for employment, and any industrial action or other labor unrest could disrupt our business.

A portion of our employees from Greece, the Philippines, Romania and Russia are covered by national collective bargaining agreements, which set minimum standards for employment. Industrial action or other labor unrest could disrupt our business. If not resolved in a timely and cost-effective manner, such industrial action or other labor unrest could prevent or hinder our operations from being carried out normally and could disrupt our business and reduce our results of operations and cash flows.

We are a holding company, and are dependent primarily on the ability of our operating subsidiaries to distribute funds to us in order to satisfy our financial and other obligations and to make dividend payments.

We are a holding company and we have no significant assets other than the equity interests in our subsidiaries. As a result, our ability to satisfy our financial and other obligations and to pay dividends depends primarily on the performance of our operating subsidiaries and their ability to distribute funds to us. If we are unable to obtain funds from our operating subsidiaries, we will not be able to pay dividends unless we obtain funds from other sources. We may not be able to obtain the necessary funds from other sources on terms acceptable to us.

We cannot guarantee that our Board of Directors will declare dividends.

Our Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, from time to time, declare and pay cash dividends in accordance with our organizational documents and applicable law. Our Board of Directors makes determinations regarding the payment of dividends in its sole discretion, and there is no guarantee that we will continue to pay dividends in the future.

While we currently intend to pay regular cash dividends on a quarterly basis, the markets in which we operate are volatile and we cannot predict with certainty the amount of cash, if any, that will be available for distribution as dividends in any period. We may also incur expenses or liabilities or be subject to other circumstances in the future that reduce or eliminate the amount of cash that we have available for distribution as dividends, including as a result of the risks described herein. We will make dividend payments to our shareholders only if our Board of Directors, acting in its sole discretion, determines that payments of dividends would be in our best interest and in compliance with relevant legal and contractual requirements. The principal business factors that our Board of Directors expects to consider when determining the timing and amount of dividend payments will be our earnings, financial condition and cash requirements at the time.

U.S. investors in our Company could suffer adverse tax consequences if we are characterized as a passive foreign investment company.

If, for any taxable year, our passive income or our assets that produce or are held for production of passive income exceed levels provided by law, we may be characterized as a "passive foreign investment company," or a PFIC, for U.S. federal income tax purposes. This characterization could result in adverse U.S. tax consequences to our U.S. shareholders. If we are classified as a PFIC, a U.S. shareholder of our common stock could be subject to increased U.S. federal income tax liability upon the sale or other disposition of our common stock or upon the receipt of amounts treated as "excess distributions." Under these rules, the excess distribution and any gain upon a sale of our common stock would be allocated ratably over the U.S. shareholder's holding period for the common stock, and the amount allocated to the current taxable year and any taxable year prior to the first taxable year in which we were a PFIC would be taxed as ordinary income in the current taxable year. The amounts allocated to each of the other taxable years would be subject to tax at the highest marginal rates on ordinary income in effect for the applicable class of taxpayer for that year, and an interest charge for the deemed tax deferral benefit would be imposed on the resulting tax liability as if such tax liability had been due with respect to each such other taxable year. In addition, shareholders of a PFIC may not receive a "step-up" in tax basis on common stock acquired from a decedent. U.S. shareholders should consult with their own U.S. tax advisors with respect to the U.S. tax consequences of investing in our common stock as well as the specific application of the "excess distribution" rule and other rules discussed in this paragraph.

We presently believe that we are not a PFIC and do not anticipate becoming a PFIC. This is, however, a factual determination made on an annual basis based on our activities, income and assets, among other factors, and is subject to change. For a discussion of how we might be characterized as a PFIC and related U.S. federal tax income consequences, please see "Item 10. Additional Information—E. Taxation—U.S. Federal Income Taxation of U.S. Holders—Passive Foreign Investment Company."

If we become subject to tax in the jurisdictions in which we operate, our net income and cash flow would decrease.

Our business is affected by taxes imposed on the purchase and sale of refined marine petroleum products in various jurisdictions in which we operate from time to time. These taxes include income, sales, excise, goods and services taxes, value-added taxes and other taxes. We currently do not pay a significant amount of tax, including withholding taxes, in any jurisdiction in which we operate. As a result of changes in our operations, tax laws or the application by tax authorities of these laws or our failure to comply with tax laws, we may become liable for an increased amount of tax in any jurisdiction. An increased liability for taxes would decrease our net income and cash flow.

Our insurance policies may not be adequate to cover our losses and because we obtain some of our insurance policies through protection and indemnity associations, we may be subject to calls in amounts based not only on our own claim records, but also the claim records of other members of the protection and indemnity associations, which could expose us to additional expenses.

We carry insurance policies to protect us against most of the accident-related risks involved in the conduct of our business, including marine hull and machinery insurance, protection and indemnity insurance, which includes pollution risks, crew insurance, and war risk insurance. We may not be adequately insured to cover losses from our operational risks. Additionally, our insurers may refuse to pay particular claims and our insurance policies may be voidable by the insurers if we take, or fail to take, certain action, such as failing to maintain certification of our vessels with applicable maritime regulatory organizations. Any significant uninsured or under-insured loss or liability could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. In addition, we may not be able to obtain adequate insurance coverage at reasonable rates in the future during adverse insurance market conditions.

We may also be subject to calls or premiums in amounts based not only on our claim records but also the claim records of other members of the protection and indemnity associations through which we receive insurance coverage for tort liability, including pollution-related liability. Our payment of these calls could result in significant expense to us, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. Moreover, the protection and indemnity associations and other insurance providers reserve the right to make changes in insurance coverage with little or no advance notice.

Maritime claimants could arrest our vessels, which could disrupt our cash flow.

Crew members, suppliers of goods and services to a vessel and other parties may be entitled to a maritime lien against that vessel for unsatisfied debts, claims or damages. In many jurisdictions, a maritime lien holder may enforce its lien by arresting a vessel through foreclosure proceedings. The arrest or attachment of one or more of our vessels could interrupt our cash flows and require us to pay a significant amount of money to have the arrest lifted. In addition, in some jurisdictions under the "sister ship" theory of liability, a claimant may arrest both the vessel that is subject to the claimant's maritime lien and any "associated" vessel, which is any vessel owned or controlled by the same owner. Claimants could try to assert "sister ship" liability against one vessel in our fleet for claims relating to another vessel in our fleet.

Terrorist attacks, piracy, and international hostilities have previously affected the shipping industry, and any future attacks could negatively impact our results of operations and financial condition.

We conduct our marine fuel supply operations worldwide, and our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition could suffer by changing economic, political and government conditions in the countries and regions where our vessels are employed or registered. Moreover, we operate in a sector of the economy that is likely to be adversely impacted by the effects of political instability, terrorist or other attacks, war, piracy, or international hostilities, and any restrictive governmental actions that may result in response to such activity.

Acts of piracy have historically affected ocean-going vessels trading in regions of the world such as the South China Sea, the Arabian Sea, the Red Sea, the Gulf of Aden off the coast of Somalia, the Indian Ocean and the Gulf of Guinea. Sea piracy incidents continue to occur, particularly in the Gulf of Aden, the Gulf of Guinea and increasingly in Southeast Asia. We may not be adequately insured to cover losses from these incidents, which could have a material adverse effect on us. In addition, detention hijacking, involving the hostile detention of a vessel, as a result of an act of piracy against our vessels, or an increase in cost, or unavailability of insurance for our vessels, could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Our principal shareholders own a significant portion of our outstanding common shares, which may limit your ability to influence our actions, and they may not act in the best interests of our other shareholders.

Our principal shareholders, Mr. Melisanidis, our founder and Head of Corporate Development, and Mr. Georgiopoulos, the Chairman of our Board of Directors, currently own approximately 22.0% and 10.8 % of our outstanding shares of common stock, respectively. Accordingly, Messrs. Melisanidis and Georgiopoulos have the power to exert considerable influence over our actions, including the election of our directors, the adoption or amendment of provisions in our amended and restated articles of incorporation and bylaws and approval of possible mergers, amalgamations, control transactions and other significant corporate transactions. This concentration of ownership may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control, merger, consolidation, takeover or other business combination. This concentration of ownership could also discourage a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us, which could in turn have an adverse effect on the market price of our shares. So long as Messrs. Melisanidis and Georgiopoulos continue to own a significant amount of our equity, even though such amount represents less than 50% of our voting power, they will continue to be able to exercise considerable influence over our decisions. In addition, Mr. Melisanidis and members of Mr. Melisanidis' family hold significant interest in our related companies and their interests may not coincide with the interests of other holders of our notes and common shares. For further discussion, please see "Item 7. Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions—B. Related Party Transactions." Messrs. Melisanidis and Georgiopoulos may not necessarily act in accordance with the best interests of other shareholders. To the extent that conflicts of interests may arise, Messrs. Melisanidis and Georgiopoulos may vote in a manner adverse to us or to you or other holders of our securities.

In addition, we have entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Melisanidis. The employment agreement restricts Mr. Melisanidis' ability to compete with us during the term of the employment agreement and 12 months following its termination. If we are unable to enforce such restrictions on Mr. Melisanidis against competing with us, any direct or indirect competition from Mr. Melisanidis could be particularly damaging to us.

Some of our directors are affiliated with other companies, which could result in conflicts of interest that may not be resolved in our favor.

Some of our directors also serve as directors of other public companies and are employees or have investments in companies in industries related to ours. In particular, Mr. Georgiopoulos, the Chairman of our Board of Directors, is the chairman of the board of directors of Gener8 Maritime, Inc., or Gener8, the combined company resulting from the recent merger on May 7, 2015 of General Maritime Corporation, or General Maritime, and Navig8 Crude Tankers, Inc, or Navig8, and he is also the Chairman of the board of directors of Genco Shipping & Trading Limited. Also, Mr. John Tavlarios is the Chief Operating Officer of Gener8. As such, Gener8 may be deemed one of our affiliates for United States securities laws purposes.

To the extent that the other entities with which our directors may be affiliated compete with us for business opportunities, prospects or financial resources, or participate in ventures in which we may participate, our directors may face actual or apparent conflicts of interest in connection with decisions that could have different implications for us and the other companies. These decisions may relate to corporate opportunities, corporate strategies, potential acquisitions of businesses, intercompany agreements, competition, the issuance or disposition of securities, the election of new or additional directors and other matters. Such potential conflicts may delay or limit the opportunities available to us, and it is possible that conflicts may be resolved in a manner adverse to us.

As a foreign private issuer, we are exempt from certain New York Stock Exchange corporate governance requirements applicable to U.S. domestic companies. As a result, our corporate governance practices may not have the same protections afforded to investors of companies that are subject to all of the New York Stock Exchange governance requirements.

We are a "foreign private issuer" within the meaning of the New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE, corporate governance standards. Under NYSE rules, a foreign private issuer may elect to comply with the practice of its home country and not to comply with certain NYSE corporate governance requirements, including the requirements that:

a majority of the board of directors be independent directors;

both a nominating and corporate governance and a compensation committee be established and composed entirely of independent directors and each committee has a written charter addressing its purpose and responsibilities;

an annual performance evaluation of the nominating and corporate governance and compensation committees be undertaken;

non-management directors meet in regular executive sessions without members of management in attendance;

a company has corporate governance guidelines or a code of ethics; and

an audit committee consists of a minimum of three independent directors.

We voluntarily comply with most NYSE rules. However, investors will not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all NYSE corporate governance requirements.

Anti-takeover provisions in our organizational documents could have the effect of discouraging, delaying or preventing a merger, amalgamation or acquisition, which could reduce the market price of our common shares.

Several provisions of our articles of incorporation and our bylaws could make it difficult for our shareholders to change the composition of our Board of Directors in any one year, preventing them from changing the composition of management. In addition, the same provisions may discourage, delay or prevent a merger or acquisition that shareholders may consider favorable.

These provisions include:

authorizing our Board of Directors to issue "blank check" preferred stock without shareholder approval;

providing for a classified Board of Directors with staggered, three-year terms;

prohibiting cumulative voting in the election of directors;

authorizing the removal of directors only for cause and only upon the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 70% of the outstanding shares of our capital stock entitled to vote for the directors;

prohibiting shareholder action by written consent unless the written consent is signed by all shareholders entitled to vote on the action;

limiting the persons who may call special meetings of shareholders; and

establishing advance notice requirements for nominations for election to our Board of Directors or for proposing matters that can be acted on by shareholders at shareholder meetings.

In addition, we have entered into a shareholders rights agreement that makes it more difficult for a third-party to acquire us without the support of our Board of Directors. See "Item 10. Additional Information—B. Memorandum and Articles of Association—Stockholders Rights Agreement." These anti-takeover provisions could substantially impede the ability of public shareholders to benefit from a change in control and, as a result, may reduce the market price of our common stock and the ability of our shareholders to realize any potential change of control premium.

We and many of our subsidiaries are incorporated in the Republic of the Marshall Islands, which does not have a well-developed body of corporate law, and as a result, shareholders may have fewer rights and protections under Marshall Islands law than under a typical jurisdiction in the United States.

Our corporate affairs are governed by our amended and restated articles of incorporation and bylaws and by the Marshall Islands Business Corporations Act, or the BCA. The provisions of the BCA resemble provisions of the corporation laws of a number of states in the United States. However, there have been few judicial cases in the Marshall Islands interpreting the BCA. The rights and fiduciary responsibilities of directors under the law of the Republic of the Marshall Islands are not as clearly established as the rights and fiduciary responsibilities of directors under statutes or judicial precedent in the United States. The rights of shareholders of companies incorporated in the Marshall Islands may differ from the rights of shareholders of companies incorporated in the United States. The BCA provides that it is to be interpreted according to the laws of the State of Delaware and other states with substantially similar legislative provisions. However, there have been few, if any, court cases interpreting the BCA in the Marshall Islands and Marshall Islands courts may not reach the same conclusions as United States courts. Thus, you may have more difficulty protecting your interests in the face of actions by management, directors or controlling shareholders than would shareholders of a corporation incorporated in a United States jurisdiction that has developed a relatively more substantial body of case law.

We may be subject to litigation, arbitration and other proceedings that could have an adverse effect on our business.

We may be, from time to time, involved in various litigation matters arising in the ordinary course of business, or otherwise. These matters may include, among other things, contract disputes, personal injury claims, environmental matters, governmental claims for taxes or duties, securities, or maritime matters. The potential costs to resolve any claim or other litigation matter, or a combination of these, may have a material adverse effect on us because of potential negative outcomes, the costs associated with asserting our claims or defending such lawsuits, and the diversion of management's attention to these matters.

Please see "Item 8.A Financial Information—Consolidated Statements and Other Financial Information—Legal Proceedings" for a description of our litigation matters.

Risk Factors Relating to Our Industry

Adverse economic conditions in the shipping industry may reduce the demand for our products and services and negatively affect our results of operations and financial condition.

Our business is focused on the physical supply and marketing of refined marine fuel and marine lubricants to the shipping industry. The shipping industry has been materially adversely affected by recent economic conditions that may have an adverse effect on our customers, which may reduce the demand for our products and services and negatively affect our results of operations and financial condition.

In addition, any political instability, terrorist activity, piracy activity or military action that disrupts shipping operations will adversely affect our customers. Any adverse conditions in the shipping industry may reduce the demand for our products and services and negatively affect our results of operations and financial condition.

Material disruptions in the availability or supply of oil may reduce the supply of our products and have a material impact on our operating results, revenues and costs.

The success of our business depends on our ability to purchase, sell and deliver marine petroleum products to our customers. Material disruptions in the availability or supply of oil may have an adverse effect on our suppliers. In addition, any political instability, natural disasters, terrorist activity, piracy, military action or other similar conditions may disrupt the availability or supply of oil and consequently decrease the supply of refined marine fuel. Decreased availability or supply of marine fuel may reduce our operating results, revenues and results of operations.

Changes in the market price of petroleum may increase our credit losses, reduce our liquidity and decrease our profitability.

Unanticipated changes in the price of oil and gas, to the extent not hedged, may negatively affect our business. A rapid decline in fuel prices could decrease our profitability because if we were to purchase inventory when fuel prices are high without having a corresponding sales contract in place, we may not be able to resell it at a profit. Conversely, increases in fuel prices can adversely affect our customers' businesses, and consequently increase our credit losses. Increases in fuel prices could also affect the credit limits extended to us by our suppliers and our working capital requirements, potentially affecting our liquidity and profitability. In addition, increases in oil prices will make it more difficult for our customers to operate and could reduce demand for our services. Please see "—We are subject to certain risks with respect to our counterparties on contracts, including, without limitation, our bunker supply and sale agreements , and failure of such counterparties to meet their obligations could cause us to suffer losses or negatively impact our results of operations and cash flows."

We may be required to make significant investments in ballast water management which may have a material adverse effect on our future performance, results of operations, and financial position.

The International Convention for the Control and Management of Vessels' Ballast Water and Sediments, or the BWM Convention, aims to prevent the spread of harmful aquatic organisms from one region to another, by establishing standards and procedures for the management and control of ships' ballast water and sediments. The BWM Convention calls for a phased introduction of mandatory ballast water exchange requirements to be replaced in time with mandatory concentration limits. Investments in ballast water treatment may have a material adverse effect on our future performance, results of operations, cash flows and financial position.

In the highly competitive marine fuel supply industry, we may not be able to successfully compete for customers with new entrants or established companies with greater resources, which would negatively affect our financial condition and our ability to expand our business.

We are subject to aggressive competition in all aspects of our business. Our competitors are numerous, ranging from large multinational corporations, which have significantly greater capital resources than us, to relatively small and specialized firms. In addition to competing with fuel resellers, such as World Fuel Services Corporation and Chemoil Corporation, we also compete with the major oil producers, such as BP Marine Limited, Royal Dutch Shell plc, Marine Products Corp. and Exxon Mobil Corporation, that market fuel directly to large commercial shipping companies. We also compete with physical suppliers of marine fuel products, such as CEPSA (Gibraltar) Ltd. and Fujairah National Bunkering Co. LLC, for business from traders and brokers as well as end customers. We may not be able to successfully compete for customers because of increased competition from the major oil producers, or our suppliers who may choose to market directly to large as well as smaller shipping companies, or to provide less advantageous price and credit terms to us. Also, due in part to the highly fragmented market, competitors with greater resources could enter the marine fuel supply industry and operate larger fleets of bunkering tankers through consolidations or acquisitions and may be able to offer better terms than we are able to offer to our customers.

Our operations are subject to extensive environmental laws and regulations, the violation of which could result in liabilities, fines or penalties and changes of which may require increased capital expenditures and other costs necessary to operate and maintain our vessels.

We are subject to various environmental laws and regulations dealing with the handling of fuel and fuel products. We currently store fuel inventories on our bunkering tankers and storage facilities and we may, in the future, maintain fuel inventories at several other locations in fixed or floating storage facilities. Our operations involve the risks of fuel spillage or seepage, environmental damage, and hazardous waste disposal, among other things. If we are involved in a spill or other accident involving hazardous substances, if there are releases of fuel and fuel products we own, or if we are found to be in violation of environmental laws or regulations, we could be subject to liabilities that could have a materially adverse effect on our business and operating results. We are also subject to possible claims by customers, employees and others who may be injured by a fuel spill, exposure to fuel, or other accidents. If we should fail to comply with applicable environmental regulations, we could be subject to substantial fines or penalties and to civil or criminal liability.

In particular, our operations are subject to numerous laws and regulations in the form of international conventions, national, state and local laws and national and international regulations in force in the jurisdictions in which our vessels operate or are registered, which can significantly affect the ownership and operation of our vessels. These regulations include, but are not limited to, E.U. regulations, the United Kingdom's Environmental Protection Act 1990, or U.K. EPA, the United Kingdom's Water Resources Act 1991, as amended, or WRA, the Pollution Prevention and Control (England and Wales) Regulations 2010, or the Regulations, and regulations of the IMO, including, the International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships of 1973 (as from time to time and generally referred to as MARPOL), including designation of Emission Control Areas thereunder, the International Convention on Civil Liability for Bunker Oil Pollution Damage the IMO International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea of 1974 and the International Convention on Load Lines of 1966. In the U.S., we face the risk of liability under the U.S. Oil Pollution Act of 1990, or the OPA, the U.S. Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, or CERCLA, the U.S. Clean Air Act, the U.S. Clean Water Act, and the U.S. Maritime Transportation Security Act of 2002. We refer you to the discussion in the section of this report entitled "Environmental and Other Regulations" for a description of environmental laws and regulations that affect our business.

A failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations may result in administrative and civil penalties, criminal sanctions or the suspension or termination of our operations. Some environmental laws often impose strict liability for remediation of spills and releases of oil and hazardous substances, which could subject us to liability without regard to whether we were negligent or at fault. An oil spill could result in significant liability, including fines, penalties, criminal liability and remediation costs for natural resource damages as well as third-party damages. We are required to satisfy insurance and financial responsibility requirements for potential oil (including marine fuel) spills and other pollution incidents. Our insurance policies covering certain environmental risks may not be sufficient to cover all such risks and any claim may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

Compliance with applicable laws, regulations and standards, may require us to make additional capital expenditures for the installation of costly equipment or operational changes and may affect the resale value or useful lives of our vessels. In order to satisfy these requirements, we may, from time to time, be required to take our vessels out of service for extended periods of time, with corresponding losses of revenues. We may also incur additional costs in order to comply with other existing and future regulatory obligations, including costs relating to air emissions, maintenance and inspection, development and implementation of emergency procedures and insurance coverage or other financial assurance of our ability to address pollution incidents. These costs could reduce our results of operations and cash flows and weaken our financial condition. Also, in the future, market conditions may not justify these expenditures or enable us to operate some or all of our vessels profitably during the remainder of their economic lives.

Our operations have inherent risks that could negatively impact our results of operations and financial condition.

Operating bunkering vessels and marine fuel storage facilities involves inherent risks that could negatively impact our results of operations and financial condition. Our vessels and fuel oils that they carry are at risk of being damaged or lost because of events such as marine disasters, bad weather, mechanical failures, human error, war, terrorism, piracy and other circumstances or events. All of these hazards can result in death or injury to persons, loss of revenues or property, environmental damage, higher insurance rates, damage to our customer relationships, delays or rerouting. Although we maintain insurance to mitigate these costs, there can be no assurance that our insurance would be sufficient to cover the liabilities we may incur as a result of the occurrence of one or more of these events.

If our vessels suffer damage, they may need to be repaired. The costs of vessel repairs are unpredictable and can be substantial. We may have to pay repair costs that our insurance policies do not cover. The loss of earnings while these vessels are being repaired, as well as the actual cost of these repairs, would decrease our results of operations. If one of our vessels were involved in an accident with the potential risk of environmental contamination, the resulting media coverage could have a material adverse effect on our business, our results of operations and cash flows and weaken our financial condition.

Risk Factors Relating to Our Common Shares

Future sales of our common shares could cause the market price of our common stock to decline.

The market price of our common stock could decline due to the issuance and, or the announcements of proposed sales, of a large number of common stock in the market, including sales of common stock by our large shareholders, or the issuance of common shares upon the conversion of our 4.00% Convertible Unsecured Senior Notes due 2018, or the perception that these sales could occur. These sales, or the perception that these sales could occur, could also make it more difficult or impossible for us to sell equity securities in the future at a time and price that we deem appropriate to raise funds through future offerings of common stock.

Our amended and restated articles of incorporation authorize our Board of Directors to, among other things, issue additional shares of common or preferred stock or securities convertible or exchangeable into equity securities, without shareholder approval. We may issue such additional equity or convertible securities to raise additional capital. The issuance of any additional shares of common or preferred stock or convertible securities could be substantially dilutive to our shareholders, including having the following effects:

our existing shareholders' proportionate ownership interest in us will decrease;

the amount of cash available for dividends payable on the shares of our common stock may decrease;

the relative voting strength of each previously outstanding common share may be diminished; and

the market price of the shares of our common stock may decline.

Moreover, to the extent that we issue restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, options or warrants to purchase our common shares in the future and those stock appreciation rights, options or warrants are exercised or as the restricted stock units vest, our shareholders may experience further dilution. Holders of shares of our common stock have no preemptive rights that entitle such holders to purchase their pro rata share of any offering of shares of any class or series and, therefore, such sales or offerings could result in increased dilution to our shareholders.

Our share price may be highly volatile, which could lead to a further loss of all or part of an investor's investment and there may not be a continuing public market for you to resell our common stock.

Since 2008, the stock market has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations. This volatility has often been unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. The market price of our shares of common stock fluctuated substantially during 2015, trading at a high of $15.71 in April 2015 and a low of $6.46 in September 2015, and recently closing at $8.00 on April 27, 2016. If the volatility in the market continues or worsens, it could have a further adverse effect on the market price of our shares of common stock, regardless of our operating performance, and an active and liquid public market for our shares of common stock may not continue.

The trading price of our common stock may be highly volatile and could be subject to fluctuations in response to a number of factors beyond our control. Some of those factors are:

fluctuations in interest rates;

fluctuations in the availability or the price of oil;

fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates;

announcements by us or our competitors;

changes in our relationships with customers or suppliers;

changes in governmental regulation of the fuel industry;

changes in United States or foreign tax laws;

actual or anticipated fluctuations in our operating results from period to period;

changes in financial estimates or recommendations by securities analysts;

changes in accounting principles;

a general or industry-specific decline in the demand for, and price of, our shares of common stock resulting from capital market conditions independent of our operating performance;

the loss of any of our key management personnel; and

our failure to successfully implement our business plan.

In recent years, the stock market has experienced significant price and volume fluctuations. These fluctuations may be unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These broad market fluctuations may cause declines in the market price of our common stock. The price of our common stock could fluctuate based upon factors that have little or nothing to do with us or our performance, and those fluctuations could materially reduce our common stock price.

You may not be able to sell your shares of our common stock in the future at the price that you paid for them or at all.

B.	Business Overview

We are an international marine fuel logistics company that markets and physically supplies refined marine fuel and lubricants to vessels in port, at sea and on rivers. As a physical supplier, we procure marine fuel from refineries, major oil producers and other sources and resell and deliver these fuels from our bunkering vessels to a broad base of end users. With service centers in Northern Europe, the United Arab Emirates, the U.S. East and West Coasts, Singapore, Gibraltar, the Canary Islands, Greece, Spain, Morocco, Canada, Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago, Gulf of Mexico, Germany, and South Africa, we believe that we are one of a limited number of independent physical suppliers that owns and operates a fleet of bunkering vessels and conducts physical supply operations in multiple jurisdictions. As of the date of this annual report, we own and operate a fleet of 51 bunkering vessels, 49 of which are constructed with double hulls and one of which is a single hull special purpose vehicle, and we charter-in 13 bunkering vessels, all of which are constructed with double hulls, with an aggregate carrying capacity of approximately 388,000 dwt. We also operate 12 land-based storage facilities, of which we own one and have exclusive use of one, with an aggregate storage capacity of approximately 1,160,000 cubic meters, and operate one vessel as a floating storage facility with a cargo carrying capacity of approximately 19,900 dwt. We provide fueling services to virtually all types of ocean-going and many types of coastal vessels, such as oil tankers, container ships, drybulk carriers, cruise ships, reefers, LNG/LPG carriers, car carriers and ferries. Our customers include a diverse group of ocean-going and coastal ship operators and marine fuel traders, brokers and other end-users of marine fuel and lubricants.

We provide our customers with services that require sophisticated logistical operations designed to meet their strict fuel quality and delivery scheduling needs. We believe that our extensive experience, management systems and software systems allow us to meet our customers' specific requirements when they purchase and take delivery of marine fuels and lubricants around the world. This, together with the capital intensive nature of our industry and the limited available shipyard capacity for new vessel construction, represents a significant barrier to the entry of competitors. We have devoted our efforts to building a global brand and believe that our customers recognize our brand as representing high quality service and products at each of our locations around the world. We perform our technical ship operations in-house, which helps us maintain high levels of customer service.

Throughout our history, we have expanded our business and marine fuel delivery capabilities through strategic alliances, select business and vessel acquisitions, and the establishment of new service centers. In April and August 2013, we commenced physical supply operations in Barcelona and Algeciras, respectively, in Spain. In December 2013, we acquired the U.S. East Coast bunkering business of Hess, including 250,000 cubic meters of leased tank storage in the ports of New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Norfolk and Charleston. This acquisition marked our entrance into supplying U.S. customers and has increased our exposure to U.S. clients worldwide, including leading cruise lines. In December 2014, we entered into an agreement to acquire 28,567 metric tons of marine fuel and assume a storage contract with Vopak Terminal in Los Angeles, California at an auction of the assets of O.W. Bunker. This acquisition has given us access to the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, key trade hubs between North America and Asia. Also in December 2014, we commenced fuel supply operations in the Gulf of Mexico.

In January 2015, we launched physical supply operations in Germany and assumed time charter in contracts for two modern bunkering barges that were previously under charter to O.W. Bunker, together with approximately 20,000 cubic meters of onshore storage capacity, and commenced marketing operations in Russia dedicated to sales and marketing of marine petroleum products across all Russian ports.

In January 2016, we commenced bunker trading operations in South America from our new office in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. In March 2016, we commenced physical supply operations in South Africa's Algoa Bay.

We currently have a global presence in 33 markets, including Northern Europe and the Antwerp-Rotterdam-Amsterdam region, or the ARA region, the United Arab Emirates, the U.S. East and West Coasts, Singapore, Gibraltar, the Canary Islands, Greece, Spain, Morocco, Canada, Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago, Gulf of Mexico (in U.S. territorial waters), Germany, Russia, South America, and South Africa. We plan to continue to grow our business during the next several years and to pursue select expansion opportunities as a means of expanding our service.

In some markets, we have deployed floating storage facilities which enable us to maintain more efficient refueling operations, have more reliable access to a supply of bunker fuel and deliver a higher quality service to our customers. In addition, we own and operate one special purpose vessel, the Aegean Orion , a 550 dwt tanker, which is based in Greece.

We also operate land-based storage facilities in the United States, Morocco, Canary Islands, Spain, Panama, and Germany, where we store marine fuel in terminals with storage capacity of approximately 295,000, 218,000, 79,000, 52,000, 32,000, and 20,000 cubic meters, respectively. In addition, we, through our wholly owned subsidiary, Aegean Oil Terminal Corporation, own and operate a land-based storage facility in Fujairah, United Arab Emirates, with storage capacity of 465,000 cubic meters, representing 40.1% of our aggregate storage capacity. We may also consider the construction of land-based storage facilities in other areas depending on market prospects and availability of financing.

Our capital expenditures in connection with the establishment or the acquisition of service centers, including bunkering vessels and floating and land-based storage facilities, described above, amounted to $471.8 million in the aggregate for the year ended December 31, 2015. Please see "Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—B. Liquidity and Capital Resources."

In addition to our bunkering operations described above, we market and distribute marine lubricants under the Alfa Marine Lubricants brand. Alfa Marine Lubricants are currently available in most of our markets. We view this business as complementary to our business of marketing and delivering marine fuel. We plan to expand the distribution of marine lubricants throughout our service centers and other bunkering ports worldwide.

Primary Markets Served

The following discussion provides an overview of the markets in which we conduct our physical supply operations and trading activities.

Our Physical Supply Operations

Greece

We currently service our customers in Greece through our related company, Aegean Oil, in Piraeus, Patras, and other parts of Greece. We currently operate eight double hull tankers, one single hull special purpose vessel, the Aegean Orion , a 550 dwt tanker, and a floating storage facility, the Mediterranean , a double hull barge, in Greece.

Aegean Oil has a license, which we, as a non-Greek company, are not qualified to obtain, to operate as a physical supplier of refined marine petroleum products in Greece. Aegean Oil's license to operate as a physical supplier of refined marine petroleum products allows it to operate not only in Piraeus and Patras but in all ports in Greece, including Thessaloniki and Crete. We purchase our fuel mainly from Hellenic Refinery (ELPE) and Motor Oil Hellas. We store fuel in our floating storage facility, the Mediterranean . As we expand our business, we may elect to service our customers in other Greek ports and seek a larger share of the total Greek market for supply of marine petroleum products. We support our operations in Greece from our office in Piraeus, which we lease.

Gibraltar

We possess a license issued by the Bunkering Superintendent of the Port of Gibraltar to act as a physical supplier of marine petroleum products in Gibraltar. We currently operate six double hull bunkering tankers in Gibraltar. We purchase our fuel in Gibraltar from a variety of different suppliers, including Preem Tupras Co., and Galp Energia SGPS S.A. We store our fuel in a leased storage facility in Tangiers, near the port of Tanger-Med. We support our bunkering operations from our office in Gibraltar, which we lease.

United Arab Emirates

We possess a license issued by Sharjah Economic Development Department to act as a physical supplier of marine petroleum products in the port area of Fujairah. We purchase our fuel in Fujairah from a variety of different suppliers including the Vitol Group, Royal Dutch Shell plc, BP Oil International Ltd, the State Oil Company of Azerbaijan Republic, Mercuria Energy Group Ltd., Petrochina International Co., Ltd. and the Bahrain Petroleum Company (Bapco).

We have a 25-year lease agreement with the Municipality of Fujairah, which may be automatically renewed for an additional 25 years, pursuant to which we built a land-based storage facility with capacity of 465,000 cubic meters, which was completed in the fourth quarter of 2014. We currently operate seven double hull bunkering tankers in this region, which we service using our Fujairah Storage Facility. We currently lease to third parties over 300,000 cubic meters of this facility. We support our bunkering operations from two offices in Fujairah and Dubai, which we lease.

Jamaica

Our sales and marketing approach is designed to create awareness of the benefits and advantages of our fuel sales and services. We are active in industry trade shows and other available public forums.

Administrative Offices

Cyprus

We maintain an administrative office in Cyprus, which we lease. Our office in Cyprus is responsible for, among other things, certain invoicing functions of our principal operating subsidiary, Aegean Marine Petroleum S.A., or AMP.

New York, United States

We maintain an executive office in New York, United States to oversee our financial and other reporting functions.

Customers

We market marine fuel and related services to a broad and diversified base of customers. During the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, none of our customers accounted for more than 10% of our total revenues. Our customers serviced during the past three years include Greek-owned commercial shipping companies, such as Blue Star Ferries, Neptune Line Shipping and ENESEL S.A., other international shipping companies, such as A.P. Moller and Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd., fuel traders and brokers, such as World Fuel Services Corporation, and oil majors, such as Exxon Mobil Corporation.

Suppliers

We purchase our marine fuel and lubricants from refineries, oil majors or other select suppliers around the world. In the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, we purchased marine petroleum products of approximately $136.7 million, $348.6 million, and $421.3 million, respectively, or approximately 4% to 7% of our total purchases of marine petroleum products, from our related companies, Aegean Oil and Melco S.A., or Melco. The majority of our purchases of marine petroleum products during the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 were made from unrelated third-party suppliers and totaled $3,716.7 million, $5,937.9 million and $5,604.4 million, respectively, or approximately 93% to 96% of our total purchases of marine petroleum products. Our cost of fuel is generally tied to spot pricing, market-based formulas or is governmentally controlled. We are usually extended trade credit from our suppliers for our fuel purchases, which are generally required to be secured by standby letters of credit or letters of guarantee.

Competition

We compete with marine fuel traders and brokers, such as World Fuel Services Corporation and Chemoil Corporation, and major oil producers, such as BP Marine Limited, Royal Dutch Shell plc, Marine Products Corp. and ExxonMobil Marine Fuel, for services and end customers. We also compete with physical suppliers of marine fuel products, such as CEPSA (Gibraltar) Ltd. and Fujairah National Bunkering Co. LLC, for business from traders and brokers as well as end customers. Our competitors include both large corporations and small, specialized firms. Some of our competitors are larger than we are and have substantially greater financial and other resources than we do. Some of our suppliers also compete against us.

Environmental and Other Regulations

Government regulations and laws significantly affect the ownership and operation of our tankers and marine fuel facilities. We are subject to various international conventions, laws and regulations in force in the countries in which our fuel facilities are located, and where our vessels may operate or are registered. Compliance with such laws, regulations and other requirements entails significant expense, including vessel modification and implementation of certain operating procedures.

A variety of governments, quasi-governmental and private organizations subject our tankers to both scheduled and unscheduled inspections. These organizations include the local port authorities, national authorities, harbor masters or equivalent, classification societies, flag state and charterers, particularly terminal operators and oil companies. Some of these entities require us to obtain permits, licenses and certificates and approvals for the operation of our tankers and marine fuel facilities. Our failure to maintain necessary permits, licenses, certificates or approvals could require us to incur substantial costs or temporarily suspend operation of our marine fuel terminal or one or more of the vessels in our fleet.

We believe that the heightened levels of environmental and quality concerns among insurance underwriters, regulators and charterers have led to greater inspection and safety requirements on all vessels and may accelerate the scrapping of older vessels throughout the industry. Increasing environmental concerns have created a demand for tankers that conform to the stricter environmental standards. We are required to maintain operating standards for all of our vessels emphasizing operational safety, quality maintenance, continuous training of our officers and crews and compliance with applicable local, national and international environmental laws and regulations. We believe that the operation of our vessels will be in substantial compliance with applicable environmental laws and regulations and that our vessels have all material permits, licenses, certificates or other authorizations necessary for the conduct of our operations; however changes in such laws and regulations, such as the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill or future serious marine incidents, may impact our resale value or useful lives of our tankers. In addition, a future serious marine incident that results in significant oil pollution, release of hazardous substances, loss of life, or otherwise causes significant adverse environmental impact could result in additional legislation, regulation, or other requirements that could negatively affect our profitability.

International Maritime Organization

The IMO has adopted the International Convention for the Prevention of Marine Pollution from Ships, 1973, as modified by the Protocol of 1978 relating thereto, collectively referred to as MARPOL 73/78 and herein as MARPOL. MARPOL entered into force on October 2, 1983. It has been adopted by over 150 nations, including many of the jurisdictions in which our vessels operate. MARPOL sets forth pollution-prevention requirements applicable to drybulk carriers, among other vessels, and is broken into six Annexes, each of which regulates a different source of pollution. Annex I relates to oil leakage or spilling; Annexes II and III relate to harmful substances carried, in bulk, in liquid or packaged form, respectively; Annexes IV and V relate to sewage and garbage management, respectively; and Annex VI, lastly, relates to air emissions. Annex VI was separately adopted by the IMO in September of 1997.

Our vessels are subject to regulatory requirements imposed by the IMO, including the phase-out of single hull tankers.

In 1992, MARPOL was amended to make it mandatory for tankers of 5,000 dwt and more ordered after July 6, 1993 to be fitted with double hulls, or an alternative design approved by the IMO. Following the Erika incident off the coast of France in December 1999, the IMO took steps to accelerate the phase-out of single hull tankers. In April 2001, the IMO adopted a revised phase-out schedule for single hull tankers, which became effective in September 2003.

As a result of the oil spill in November 2002 relating to the loss of the MT Prestige , which was owned by a company not affiliated with us, in December 2003, the Marine Environmental Protection Committee of the IMO, or MEPC, adopted additional amendments to Annex I of the MARPOL Convention, which amendments became effective in April 2005. The amendment revised existing regulation 13G (now regulation 20) accelerating the phase-out of single hull oil tankers and adopted a new regulation 13H (now regulation 21) aimed at the prevention of oil pollution from oil tankers carrying heavy grade oil as cargo. Under the revised regulations, single hull oil tankers exceeding 5,000 tons deadweight were required to be phased out (or to meet certain other limited exceptions) no later than April 5, 2005 or the anniversary of the date of delivery of the ship on the date or in the year specified in the following table:

Category of Oil Tankers		Date or Year for Phase Out
Category 1 —oil tankers of 20,000 dwt and above carrying crude oil, fuel oil, heavy diesel oil or lubricating oil as cargo, and of 30,000 dwt and above carrying other oils, which do not comply with the requirements for protectively located segregated ballast tanks		April 5, 2005 for ships delivered on April 5, 1982 or earlier; or 2005 for ships delivered after April 5, 1982

Category 2 —oil tankers of 20,000 dwt and above carrying crude oil, fuel oil, heavy diesel oil or lubricating oil as cargo, and of 30,000 dwt and above carrying other oils, which do comply with the protectively located segregated ballast tank requirements Category 3 —oil tankers of more than 5,000 dwt but less than the tonnage specified for Category 1 and 2 tankers		April 5, 2005 for ships delivered on April 5, 1977 or earlier; 2005 for ships delivered after April 5, 1977 but before January 1, 1978 Anniversary date in 2006 for ships delivered in 1978 and 1979 Anniversary date in 2007 for ships delivered in 1980 and 1981 Anniversary date in 2008 for ships delivered in 1982 Anniversary date in 2009 for ships delivered in 1983 Anniversary date in 2010 for ships delivered in 1984 or later

Under the revised regulations, a flag state may permit continued operation of certain Category 2 or 3 tankers beyond the phase-out date set forth above. The regulations also enable a flag state to allow for some newer single hull oil tankers registered in its country that conform to certain technical specifications to continue operating until the earlier of the anniversary of the date of delivery of the vessel in 2015 or the date on which the vessel reaches 25 years after the date of its delivery. As described below, certain Category 2 and 3 tankers fitted only with double bottoms or double sides may also be allowed by the flag state to continue operations until their 25th anniversary of delivery. Port states are however permitted to deny entry to such tankers, if the tankers are also operating beyond the anniversary of the date of their delivery in 2015.

The December 2003 amendments to Annex I of the MARPOL convention, discussed above, adopted regulation 21 on the prevention of oil pollution from oil tankers carrying heavy grade oil as cargo, or HGO, which includes most grades of marine fuel. The new regulation requires, with certain limited exceptions, that single hull oil tankers of 5,000 dwt and above comply with regulation 13F of Annex 1 (setting out a number of requirements aimed at the prevention of oil pollution in the event of collision or stranding) after April 5, 2005, and that single hull oil tankers of 600 dwt and above but less than 5,000 dwt comply with regulation 13F(7)(a) of Annex 1 (requiring certain modifications to smaller tankers in order to prevent pollution in the event of collision or stranding) no later than the anniversary of their delivery in 2008.

Under regulation 21, HGO means any of the following:

crude oils having a density at 15°C higher than 900 kg/m3;

fuel oils having either a density at 15°C higher than 900 kg/m3 or a kinematic viscosity at 50°C higher than 180 mm2/s; or

bitumen, tar and their emulsions.

Under regulation 21, the flag state may allow continued operation of oil tankers of 5,000 dwt and above, carrying crude oil with a density at 15°C higher than 900 kg/m3 but lower than 945 kg/m3, that conform to certain technical specifications and where, in the opinion of such flag state, the ship is fit to continue such operation, having regard to the size, age, operational area and structural conditions of the ship and provided that the continued operation shall not go beyond the date on which the ship reaches 25 years after the date of its delivery.

The flag state may also allow continued operation of a single hull oil tanker of 600 dwt and above but less than 5,000 dwt, carrying HGO as cargo, if, in the opinion of such flag state, the ship is fit to continue such operation, having regard to the size, age, operational area and structural conditions of the ship, provided that the operation shall not go beyond the date on which the ship reaches 25 years after the date of its delivery.

The flag state may also exempt an oil tanker of 600 dwt and above carrying HGO as cargo if the ship is either engaged in voyages exclusively within an area under the flag state's jurisdiction, or if the ship is engaged in voyages exclusively within an area under the jurisdiction of another party to the MARPOL Convention, provided that party agrees. The same applies to vessels operating as floating storage units of HGO.

Any port state, however, can deny entry of single hull tankers carrying HGO which have been allowed to continue operation under the exemptions mentioned above, into the ports or offshore terminals under the port state's jurisdiction, or deny ship-to-ship transfer of HGO in areas under its jurisdiction except when such transfer is necessary for the purpose of securing the safety of a ship or saving life at sea.

In October 2004, the MEPC adopted a unified interpretation of regulation 13G that clarified the delivery date for converted tankers. Under the interpretation, where an oil tanker has undergone a major conversion that has resulted in the replacement of the forebody, including the entire cargo carrying section, the major conversion completion date shall be deemed to be the date of delivery of the ship, provided that:

the oil tanker conversion was completed before July 6, 1996;

the conversion included the replacement of the entire cargo section and fore-body and the tanker complies with all the relevant provisions of MARPOL Convention applicable at the date of completion of the major conversion; and

the original delivery date of the oil tanker will apply when considering the 15 years of age threshold relating to the first technical specifications survey to be completed in accordance.

Revised Annex I to the MARPOL Convention entered into force in January 2007 and has undergone various minor amendments since then. Revised Annex I incorporates various amendments adopted since the MARPOL Convention entered into force in 1983, including the amendments to regulation 13G (regulation 20) and newly adopted regulation 13H (regulation 21). Revised Annex I also imposes construction requirements for oil tankers delivered on or after January 1, 2010. A further amendment to revised Annex I includes an amendment to the definition of HGO that will broaden the scope of regulation 21. On August 1, 2007 regulation 12A (an amendment to Annex I) came into force requiring fuel oil tanks to be located inside the double hull in all ships with an aggregate oil fuel capacity of 600m3 and above which are delivered on or after August 1, 2010, including ships for which the building contract is entered into on or after August 1, 2007 or, in the absence of a contract, for which the keel is laid on or after February 1, 2008. Non-compliance with the ISM Code or with other IMO regulations may subject a shipowner or bareboat charterer to increased liability, may lead to decreases in available insurance coverage for affected vessels and may result in denial of access to, or detention in, some ports including United States and E.U. ports.

Air Emissions

In September of 1997, the IMO adopted Annex VI to MARPOL to address air pollution. Effective May 2005, Annex VI sets limits on nitrogen oxide emissions from ships whose diesel engines were constructed (or underwent major conversions) on or after January 1, 2000. It also prohibits "deliberate emissions" of "ozone depleting substances," defined to include certain halons and chlorofluorocarbons. "Deliberate emissions" are not limited to times when the ship is at sea; they can for example include discharges occurring in the course of the ship's repair and maintenance. Emissions of "volatile organic compounds" from certain tankers, and the shipboard incineration (from incinerators installed after January 1, 2000) of certain substances (such as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs)) are also prohibited. Annex VI also includes a global cap on the sulfur content of fuel oil and allows for special areas to be established with more stringent controls on sulphur emissions, known as Emission Control Areas, or ECAs (see below).

Annex VI seeks to further reduce air pollution by, among other things, implementing a progressive reduction of the amount of sulphur contained in any fuel oil used on board ships. As of January 1, 2012, the amended Annex VI requires that fuel oil contain no more than 3.50% sulfur. By January 1, 2020, sulfur content must not exceed 0.50%, subject to a feasibility review to be completed no later than 2018. Our vessels consume a regulated amount of bunker fuels sulphur content as per IMO Annex VI and EU Directive requirements. In addition, as per EU Directive 2005/33/EC, we have established a plan to modify and upgrade our vessels' machinery to ensure operation on low-sulphur fuels.

Sulfur content standards are even stricter within certain ECAs. As of July 1, 2010, ships operating within an ECA were not permitted to use fuel with sulfur content in excess of 1.0%, which was further reduced to 0.10% as of January 1, 2015. Amended Annex VI establishes procedures for designating new ECAs. The Baltic Sea and the North Sea have been so designated. On August 1, 2012, certain coastal areas of North America were designated ECAs, and effective January 1, 2014, the applicable areas of the United States Caribbean Sea were designated ECAs. Ocean-going vessels in these areas will be subject to stringent emissions controls and may cause us to incur additional costs. If other ECAs are approved by the IMO or other new or more stringent requirements relating to emissions from marine diesel engines or port operations by vessels are adopted by the EPA or the states where we operate, compliance with these regulations could entail significant capital expenditures, or operational changes, or otherwise increase the costs of our operations.

As of January 1, 2013 MARPOL made mandatory certain measures relating to energy efficiency for new ships in part to address greenhouse gas emission. It makes the Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI) apply to all new ships and the Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plan (SEEMP) apply to all ships.

Amended Annex VI also establishes new tiers of stringent nitrogen oxide emissions standards for new marine engines, depending on their date of installation. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency promulgated equivalent (and in some senses stricter) emissions standards in late 2009.

With effect from January 1, 2010, the Directive 2005/33/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of July 6, 2005, amending Directive 1999/32/EC came into force. The objective of the directive is to reduce emission of sulfur dioxide and particulate matter caused by the combustion of certain petroleum derived fuels. The directive imposes limits on the sulfur content of such fuels as a condition of their use within a Member State territory. The maximum sulfur content for marine fuels used by inland waterway vessels and ships at berth in ports in EU countries after January 1, 2010, is 0.10% by mass.

Safety Requirements

The IMO also adopted the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea, or the SOLAS Convention, and the International Convention on Load Lines, or the LL Convention, which impose a variety of standards that regulate the design and operational features of ships. The IMO periodically revises the SOLAS Convention and LL Convention standards. The May 2012 SOLAS Convention amendments entered into force as of January 1, 2014. Additionally, the May 2013 SOLAS Convention amendments, pertaining to emergency drills, entered into force in January 2015. The Convention on Limitation for Maritime Claims (LLMC) was amended and the amendments went into effect on June 8, 2015. The amendments alter the limits of liability for a loss of life or personal injury claim and a property claim against ship owners.

The operation of our ships is also affected by the requirements set forth in Chapter IX of the SOLAS Convention, which sets forth the IMO's International Management Code for the Safe Operation of Ships and Pollution Prevention, or the ISM Code. The ISM Code requires ship owners and bareboat charterers to develop and maintain an extensive "Safety Management System" that includes the adoption of a safety and environmental protection policy setting forth instructions and procedures for safe operation and describing procedures for dealing with emergencies.

The ISM Code requires that vessel operators obtain a safety management certificate, or SMC, for each vessel they operate. This certificate evidences compliance by a vessel's operators with the ISM Code requirements for a safety management system, or SMS. No vessel can obtain an SMC under the ISM Code unless its manager has been awarded a document of compliance, or DOC, issued in most instances by the vessel's flag state. We believe that we have all material requisite documents of compliance for our offices and safety management certificates for vessels in our fleet for which the certificates are required by the IMO. We renew these documents of compliance and safety management certificates as required.

Non-compliance with the ISM Code and other IMO regulations may subject the shipowner or bareboat charterer to increased liability, may lead to decreases in available insurance coverage for affected vessels and may result in the denial of access to, or detention in, some ports.

Oil Pollution Liability

The IMO has negotiated international conventions that impose liability for oil pollution in international waters and a signatory's territorial waters. Additional or new conventions, laws and regulations may be adopted which could limit our ability to do business and which could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

For example, the IMO has adopted the International Convention on Civil Liability for Oil Pollution Damage of 1969, as amended by different Protocol in 1976, 1984, and 1992, and amended in 2000, or the CLC. Under the CLC and depending on whether the country in which the damage results is a party to the 1992 Protocol to the CLC, a vessel's registered owner is strictly liable for pollution damage caused in the territorial waters of a contracting state by discharge of persistent oil, subject to certain exceptions. The 1992 Protocol changed certain limits on liability, expressed using the International Monetary Fund currency unit of Special Drawing Rights. The limits on liability have since been amended so that compensation limits on liability were raised. The right to limit liability is forfeited under the CLC where the spill is caused by the shipowner's personal fault and under the 1992 Protocol where the spill is caused by the shipowner's personal act or omission by intentional or reckless conduct where the shipowner knew pollution damage would probably result. The CLC requires ships covered by it to maintain insurance covering the liability of the owner in a sum equivalent to an owner's liability for a single incident. We believe that our insurance will cover the liability under the plan adopted by the IMO.

The IMO adopted the International Convention on Civil Liability for Bunker Oil Pollution Damage, or the Bunker Convention, to impose strict liability on shipowners for pollution damage in jurisdictional waters of ratifying states caused by discharges of bunker fuel. The Bunker Convention requires registered owners of ships over 1,000 gross tons to maintain insurance for pollution damage in an amount equal to the limits of liability under the applicable national or international limitation regime (but not exceeding the amount calculated in accordance with the Convention on Limitation of Liability for Maritime Claims of 1976, as amended). With respect to non-ratifying states, liability for spills or releases of oil carried as fuel in ship's bunkers typically is determined by the national or other domestic laws in the jurisdiction where the events or damages occur.

In addition, the IMO adopted an International Convention for the Control and Management of Ships' Ballast Water and Sediments, or the BWM Convention, in February 2004. The BWM Convention's implementing regulations call for a phased introduction of mandatory ballast water exchange requirements to be replaced in time with mandatory concentration limits. The BWM Convention will not become effective until 12 months after it has been adopted by 30 states, the combined merchant fleets of which represent not less than 35% of the gross tonnage of the world's merchant shipping. As of early March 2016, 48 states had adopted the BWM Convention coming close to the 35% threshold. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the BWM Convention has not been ratified. Proposals regarding implementation have recently been submitted to the IMO, but we cannot predict the ultimate timing for ratification. Many of the implementation dates originally written into the BWM Convention have already passed, so that once the BWM Convention enters into force, the period for installation of mandatory ballast water exchange requirements would be extremely short, with several thousand ships a year needing to install ballast water management systems (BWMS). For this reason, on December 4, 2013, the IMO Assembly passed a resolution revising the application dates of the BWM Convention so that they are triggered by the entry into force date and not the original dates in the BWM Convention. This in effect makes all vessels constructed before the entry into force date 'existing' vessels, and allows for the installation of a BWMS on such vessels at the first renewal survey following entry into force. Furthermore, in October 2014 the MEPC met and adopted additional resolutions concerning the BWM Convention's implementation. Upon entry into force of the BWM Convention, mid-ocean ballast water exchange would become mandatory for our vessels. When mid-ocean ballast exchange or ballast water treatment requirements become mandatory, the cost of compliance for ocean carriers could be significant and the costs of ballast water treatments may be material. However, many countries already regulate the discharge of ballast water carried by vessels from country to country to prevent the introduction of invasive and harmful species via such discharges. The United States, for example, requires vessels entering its waters from another country to conduct mid-ocean ballast exchange, or undertake some alternate measure, and to comply with certain reporting requirements . Although we do not believe that the costs of compliance with a mandatory mid-ocean ballast exchange would be material, it is difficult to predict the overall impact of such a requirement on our operations.

The IMO continues to review and introduce new regulations. It is difficult to accurately predict what additional regulations, if any, may be passed by the IMO in the future and what effect, if any, such regulations might have on our operations.

European Union Restrictions

In October 2009, the E.U. amended directive 2005/33/EC to impose criminal sanctions for illicit ship-source discharges of polluting substances, including minor discharges, if committed with intent, recklessly or with serious negligence and the discharges individually or in the aggregate result in deterioration of the quality of water. Aiding and abetting the discharge of a polluting substance may also lead to criminal penalties. Member States were required to enact laws or regulations to comply with the directive by the end of 2010. Criminal liability for pollution may result in substantial penalties or fines and increased civil liability claims.

The E.U. has adopted several regulations and directives requiring, among other things, more frequent inspections of high-risk ships, as determined by type, age, and flag as well as the number of times the ship has been detained. The E.U. also adopted and then extended a ban on substandard ships and enacted a minimum ban period and a definitive ban for repeated offenses. The regulation also provided the E.U. with greater authority and control over classification societies, by imposing more requirements on classification societies and providing for fines or penalty payments for organizations that failed to comply.

Greenhouse Gas Regulation

Currently, the emissions of greenhouse gases from international shipping are not subject to the Kyoto Protocol to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, which entered into force in 2005 and pursuant to which adopting countries have been required to implement national programs to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The 2015 United Nations Convention on Climate Change Conference in Paris did not result in an agreement that directly limits greenhouse gas emissions from ships. As of January 1, 2013, all new ships must comply with two new sets of mandatory requirements, which were adopted by MEPC in July 2011, in part to address greenhouse gas emissions from ships. Currently operating ships will be required to develop Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plans, and minimum energy efficiency levels per capacity mile will apply to new ships. Our vessels comply with these requirements, and we have regular inspections performed by our personnel to ensure continued compliance. The MEPC is also considering market-based mechanisms to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from ships. The E.U. has proposed legislation that would require the monitoring and reporting of greenhouse gas emissions from marine vessels. In April 2013, the European Parliament rejected proposed changes to the E.U. Emissions Law regarding carbon trading. In April 2015, a regulation was adopted requiring that large ships (over 5,000 gross tons) calling at European ports from January 2018 collect and publish data on carbon dioxide omissions. In June 2013 the European Commission developed a strategy to integrate maritime emissions into the overall E.U. strategy to reduced greenhouse gas emissions. For 2020, the E.U. made a unilateral commitment to reduce overall greenhouse gas emissions from its member states by 20% of 1990 levels. The E.U. also committed to reduce its emissions by 20% under the Kyoto Protocol's second period, from 2013 to 2020. In December 2013, the E.U. environmental ministers discussed draft rules to implement monitoring and reporting of carbon dioxide emissions from ships.

In the United States, the EPA has issued a finding that greenhouse gases endanger the public health and safety and has adopted regulations to limit greenhouse gas emissions from certain mobile sources and proposed regulations to limit greenhouse gases from large stationary sources. Although the mobile source emissions regulations do not apply to greenhouse gas emissions from vessels, such regulation of vessels is foreseeable, and the EPA has in recent years received petitions from the California Attorney General and various environmental groups seeking such regulation. Any passage of climate control legislation or other regulatory initiatives by the IMO, the E.U., the U.S. or other countries where we operate, or any treaty adopted at the international level to succeed the Kyoto Protocol, that restrict emissions of greenhouse gases could require us to make significant financial expenditures, including capital expenditures to upgrade our vessels, which we cannot predict with certainty at this time.

International Labour Organization

The International Labour Organization (ILO) is a specialized agency of the United Nations with headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland. The ILO has adopted the Maritime Labor Convention 2006 (MLC 2006). A Maritime Labor Certificate and a Declaration of Maritime Labor Compliance will be required to ensure compliance with the MLC 2006 for all ships above 500 gross tons in international trade. The MLC 2006 entered into force on August 20, 2013. Amendments to the MLC 2006 were adopted in 2014 and more amendments were proposed in 2016. MLC 2006 requires us to develop new procedures to ensure full compliance with its requirements.

The U.S. Oil Pollution Act of 1990 and Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act

The U.S. Oil Pollution Act of 1990, or OPA, established an extensive regulatory and liability regime for the protection and cleanup of the environment from oil spills. OPA affects all "owners and operators" whose vessels trade in the United States, its territories and possessions or whose vessels operate in United States waters, which includes the United States' territorial sea and its 200 nautical mile exclusive economic zone. The United States has also enacted the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, or CERCLA, which applies to the discharge of hazardous substances other than oil, whether on land or at sea. OPA and CERCLA both define "owner and operator" "in the case of a vessel, as any person owning, operating or chartering by demise, the vessel." Although OPA is primarily directed at oil tankers, it also applies to non-tanker ships with respect to the fuel oil, or bunkers, used to power such ships. CERCLA also applies to our operations.

Under OPA, vessel owners and operators are "responsible parties" and are jointly, severally and strictly liable (unless the spill results solely from the act or omission of a third party, an act of God or an act of war) for all containment and clean-up costs and other damages arising from discharges or threatened discharges of oil from their vessels. OPA defines these other damages broadly to include:

injury to, destruction or loss of, or loss of use of, natural resources and the costs of assessment thereof;

injury to, or economic losses resulting from, the destruction of real and personal property;

net loss of taxes, royalties, rents, fees or net profit revenues resulting from injury, destruction or loss of real or personal property, or natural resources;

loss of subsistence use of natural resources that are injured, destroyed or lost;

lost profits or impairment of earning capacity due to injury, destruction or loss of real or personal property or natural resources; and

net cost of increased or additional public services necessitated by removal activities following a discharge of oil, such as protection from fire, safety or health hazards.

OPA contains statutory caps on liability and damages; such caps do not apply to direct cleanup costs. Effective December 21, 2015, the U.S. Coast Guard has adjusted the limits of OPA liability for non-tanker vessels to the greater of $1,100 per gross ton or $939,800. OPA limits the liability depending on the structure and size of the vessel; but for all tankers, other than single-hull tank vessels, over 3,000 gross tons liability is limited to the greater of $2,200 per gross ton or $18,796,800. These limits are subject to periodic adjustment for inflation. These limits of liability do not apply if an incident was proximately caused by the violation of an applicable U.S. federal safety, construction or operating regulation by a responsible party (or its agent, employee or a person acting pursuant to a contractual relationship), or a responsible party's gross negligence or willful misconduct. The limitation on liability similarly does not apply if the responsible party fails or refuses to (i) report the incident where the responsibility party knows or has reason to know of the incident; (ii) reasonably cooperate and assist as requested in connection with oil removal activities; or (iii) without sufficient cause, comply with an order issued under the Federal Water Pollution Act (Section 311 (c), (e)) or the Intervention on the High Seas Act.

The 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico may also result in additional regulatory initiatives or statutes, including the raising of liability caps under OPA. For example, on August 15, 2012, the U.S. Bureau of Safety and Economic Enforcement (BSEE) issued a final drilling safety rule for offshore oil and gas operations that strengthens the requirements for safety equipment, well control systems, and blowout prevention practices. In December 2015, the BSEE announced a new pilot inspection program for offshore facilities. Furthermore, in April 2015, it was announced that new regulations are expected to be imposed in the United States regarding offshore oil and gas drilling. Compliance with any new requirements of OPA may substantially impact our cost of operations or require us to incur additional expenses to comply with any new regulatory initiatives or statutes.

CERCLA contains a similar liability regime whereby owners and operators of vessels are liable for cleanup, removal and remedial costs, as well as damage for injury to, or destruction or loss of, natural resources, including the reasonable costs associated with assessing same, and health assessments or health effects studies. There is no liability if the discharge of a hazardous substance results solely from the act or omission of a third party, an act of God or an act of war. Liability under CERCLA is limited to the greater of $300 per gross ton or $5 million for vessels carrying a hazardous substance as cargo and the greater of $300 per gross ton or $500,000 for any other vessel. These limits do not apply (rendering the responsible person liable for the total cost of response and damages) if the release or threat of release of a hazardous substance resulted from willful misconduct or negligence, or the primary cause of the release was a violation of applicable safety, construction or operating standards or regulations. The limitation on liability also does not apply if the responsible person fails or refused to provide all reasonable cooperation and assistance as requested in connection with response activities where the vessel is subject to OPA.

OPA and CERCLA both require owners and operators of vessels to establish and maintain with the U.S. Coast Guard evidence of financial responsibility sufficient to meet the maximum amount of liability to which the particular responsible person may be subject. Vessel owners and operators may satisfy their financial responsibility obligations by providing a proof of insurance, a surety bond, qualification as a self-insurer or a guarantee. We plan to comply with the U.S. Coast Guard's financial responsibility regulations by providing a certificate of responsibility evidencing sufficient self-insurance.

OPA specifically permits individual states to impose their own liability regimes with regard to oil pollution incidents occurring within their boundaries, provided they accept, at a minimum, the levels of liability established under OPA. Some states have enacted legislation providing for unlimited liability for oil spills. In some cases, states, which have enacted such legislation, have not yet issued implementing regulations defining vessels owners' responsibilities under these laws. We intend to comply with all applicable state regulations in the ports where our vessels call. We believe that we are in substantial compliance with all applicable existing state requirements. In addition, we intend to comply with all future applicable state regulations in the ports where our vessels call.

Other Environmental Initiatives

The U.S. Clean Water Act, or CWA, prohibits the discharge of oil or hazardous substances in U.S. navigable waters unless authorized by a duly-issued permit or exemption, and imposes strict liability in the form of penalties for any unauthorized discharges. The CWA also imposes substantial liability for the costs of removal, remediation and damages and complements the remedies available under OPA and CERCLA. In addition, many U.S. states that border a navigable waterway have enacted environmental pollution laws that impose strict liability on a person for removal costs and damages resulting from a discharge of oil or a release of a hazardous substance. These laws may be more stringent than U.S. federal law. The EPA and USCG have enacted rules relating to ballast water discharge, compliance with which requires the installation of equipment on our vessels to treat ballast water before it is discharged or the implementation of other port facility disposal arrangements or procedures at potentially substantial cost, or otherwise restrict our vessels from entering United States waters.

The EPA regulates the discharge of ballast and bilge water and other substances in United States waters under the CWA. The EPA regulations require vessels 79 feet in length or longer (other than commercial fishing vessels and recreational vessels) comply with a permit that regulates ballast water discharges and other discharges incidental to the normal operation of certain vessels within United States waters—the Vessel General Permit for Discharges Incidental to the Normal Operation of Vessels, or VGP. For a new vessel delivered to an owner or operator after September 19, 2009 to be covered by the VGP, the owner must submit a Notice of Intent at least 30 days before the vessel operates in United States waters. In March 2013, the EPA re-issued the VGP for another five years, and the new VGP took effect in December 2013. The 2013 VGP focuses on authorizing discharges incidental to operations of commercial vessels and the contains ballast water discharge limits for most vessels to reduce the risk of invasive species in United States waters, more stringent requirements for exhaust gas scrubbers and the use of environmentally acceptable lubricants.

U.S. Coast Guard regulations adopted and proposed for adoption under the U.S. National Invasive Species Act, or NISA, also impose mandatory ballast water management practices for all vessels equipped with ballast water tanks entering or operating in United States waters, which require the installation of equipment on our vessels to treat ballast water before it is discharged or the implementation of other port facility disposal arrangements or procedures, or otherwise restrict our vessels from entering United States waters. The U.S. Coast Guard must approve any technology before it is placed on a vessel, but has not yet approved the technology necessary for vessels to meet the foregoing standards.

However, as of January 1, 2014, vessels became technically subject to the phasing-in of these standards. As a result, the USCG has provided waivers to vessels which cannot install the as-yet unapproved technology. The EPA, on the other hand, has taken a different approach to enforcing ballast discharge standards under the VGP. In December 2013, the EPA issued an enforcement response policy in connection with the new VGP in which the EPA indicated that it would take into account the reasons why vessels do not have the requisite technology installed, but will not grant any waivers.

It should also be noted that in October 2015, the Second Circuit Court of Appeals issued a ruling that directed the EPA to redraft the sections of the 2013 VGP that address ballast water. However, the Second Circuit stated that 2013 VGP will remains in effect until the EPA issues a new VGP. It presently remains unclear how the ballast water requirements set forth by the EPA, the USCG, and IMO BWM Convention, some of which are in effect and some which are pending, will co-exist.

The U.S. Clean Air Act of 1970, as amended by the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1977 and 1990, or the CAA, requires the EPA to promulgate standards applicable to emissions of volatile organic compounds and other air contaminants. Our vessels are subject to vapor control and recovery requirements for certain cargoes when loading, unloading, ballasting, cleaning and conducting other operations in regulated port areas. Our vessels that operate in such port areas with restricted cargoes are equipped with vapor recovery systems that satisfy these requirements. The CAA also requires states to draft State Implementation Plans, or SIPs, designed to attain national health-based air quality standards in primarily major metropolitan and/or industrial areas. Several SIPs regulate emissions resulting from vessel loading and unloading operations by requiring the installation of vapor control equipment. As indicated above, our vessels operating in covered port areas are already equipped with vapor recovery systems that satisfy these existing requirements.

However, compliance with future EPA and U.S. Coast Guard regulations could require the installation of certain engineering equipment and water treatment systems to treat ballast water before it is discharged or the implementation of other port facility disposal arrangements or procedures at potentially substantial cost, or may otherwise restrict our vessels from entering U.S. waters.

Vessel Security Regulations

Since the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, there have been a variety of initiatives intended to enhance vessel security. In December 2002, amendments to the SOLAS Convention created a new chapter of the convention dealing specifically with maritime security. The new Chapter XI-2 became effective in July 2004 and imposes various detailed security obligations on vessels and port authorities, and mandates compliance with the ISPS Code. The ISPS Code is designed to enhance the security of ports and ships against terrorism.

To trade internationally, a vessel must attain an International Ship Security Certificate, or ISSC, from a recognized security organization approved by the vessel's flag state. Among the various requirements are:

on-board installation of automatic identification systems to provide a means for the automatic transmission of safety-related information from among similarly equipped ships and shore stations, including information on a ship's identity, position, course, speed and navigational status;

on-board installation of ship security alert systems, which do not sound on the vessel but only alert the authorities on shore;

the development of vessel security plans;

ship identification number to be permanently marked on a vessel's hull;

a continuous synopsis record kept onboard showing a vessel's history, including the name of the ship, the state whose flag the ship is entitled to fly, the date on which the ship was registered with that state, the ship's identification number, the port at which the ship is registered and the name of the registered owner(s) and their registered address; and

compliance with flag state security certification requirements.

Ships operating without a valid certificate may be detained at port until it obtains an ISSC, or it may be expelled from port, or refused entry at port.

Inspection by Classification Societies

Our tankers have been certified as being "in-class" by Lloyds Register of Shipping Germanischer Lloyd, American Bureau of Shipping, Det Norske Veritas and Bureau Veritas, all of which are members of the International Association of Classification Societies (IACS). In December 2013, the IACS adopted new harmonized Common Structure Rules that align with IMO goal standards, which apply to oil tankers and bulk carriers constructed on or after July 1, 2015. Generally, the regulations of vessel registries accepted by international lenders in the shipping industry require that an ocean-going vessel's hull and machinery be evaluated by a classification society authorized by the country of registry. The classification society certifies that the vessel has been built and maintained in accordance with the rules of the classification society and complies with applicable rules and regulations of the vessel's country of registry and the international conventions of which that country is a member. Each vessel is inspected by a surveyor of the classification society in three surveys of varying frequency and thoroughness: every year for the annual survey, every two to three years for intermediate surveys and every four to five years for special surveys. Should any defects be found, the classification surveyor generally issues a notation or recommendation for appropriate repairs, which have to be made by the shipowner within the time limit prescribed. Vessels may be required, as part of the annual and intermediate survey process, to be drydocked for inspection of the underwater portions of the vessel and for necessary repair stemming from the inspection. Special surveys always require drydocking.

Risk of Loss and Insurance Coverage

General

The operation of any tanker vessel involves risks such as mechanical failure, physical damage, collision, property loss, inventory loss or damage and business interruption due to political circumstances in foreign countries, hostilities and labor strikes. In addition, there is always an inherent possibility of marine disaster, including oil spills and other environmental mishaps, and the liabilities arising from owning and operating vessels in international trade. While we believe that our present insurance coverage is adequate, not all risks can be insured against, and there can be no guarantee that any specific claim will be paid, or that we will always be able to obtain adequate insurance coverage at reasonable rates.

Hull and Machinery and War Risk Insurance

We have obtained marine hull and machinery and war risk insurance policies, which provide coverage for the risk of actual or constructive total loss, for all our vessels. Each of our vessels is covered for at least its fair market value.

We have also obtained increased value insurance policies for all of our vessels. Under the increased value insurance, we will be able to recover the sum insured under the policy in addition to the sum insured under our hull and machinery policy in the event of the total loss of the vessel.

Protection and Indemnity Insurance

Protection and indemnity insurance policies, which cover our third-party liabilities in connection with our shipping activities, are provided by mutual protection and indemnity associations, or P&I Associations. These insurance policies cover third-party liability and other related expenses of injury or death of crew, passengers and other third-parties, loss or damage to cargo, claims arising from collisions with other vessels, damage to other third-party property, pollution arising from oil or other substances, and salvage, towing and other related costs, including wreck removal. Protection and indemnity insurance policies are a form of mutual indemnity insurance policies, extended by protection and indemnity mutual associations, or "clubs." Subject to the "capping" of exposure discussed below, our coverage, except for pollution, is unlimited.

Our current protection and indemnity insurance coverage for pollution is up to $1.0 billion per vessel per incident. The P&I Associations that compose the International Group insure approximately 90% of the world's commercial tonnage and have entered into a pooling agreement to reinsure each association's liabilities. As a member of a P&I Association that is a member of the International Group, we are subject to calls payable to the associations based on our claim records as well as the claim records of all other members of the individual associations, and members of the International Group.

Trademarks and Licenses

We have entered into a trademark license agreement with Aegean Oil pursuant to which Aegean Oil has granted us a non-transferable, non-exclusive, perpetual (subject to termination for material breach), world-wide, royalty-free right and license to use certain trademarks related to the Aegean logo and "Aegean Marine Petroleum" in connection with marine fuel supply services.

*Chartered in by us from a third party.

We have positioned our bunkering tankers across our existing service centers and review vessel positioning on a periodic basis and reposition our vessels among our existing or new service centers to optimize their deployment. Our vessels operate within or outside the territorial waters of each geographical location and, under international law, usually fall under the jurisdiction of the country of the flag they carry. Generally, our bunkering tankers, unlike our bunkering barges, are not permanently located within any particular territorial waters and we are free to use all of our bunkering tankers in any geographical location. We have positioned one of our bunkering tankers in Greece, which we use as a floating storage facility, and we have positioned our 550 dwt tanker, the Aegean Orion , as a special purpose vessel in Greece.

In addition, operate land-based storage facilities in the United States, Morocco, Canary Islands, Spain, Panama, and Germany, where we store marine fuel in terminals with storage capacity of approximately 295,000, 218,000, 79,000, 52,000, 32,000, and 20,000 cubic meters, respectively. In addition, we, through our wholly owned subsidiary, Aegean Oil Terminal Corporation, own and operate a land-based storage facility in Fujairah, United Arab Emirates, with storage capacity of 465,000 cubic meters, representing 40.1% of our aggregate storage capacity. We may also consider the construction of land-based storage facilities in other areas depending on market prospects and the availability of financing.

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS

The following management's discussion and analysis of the results of our operations and financial condition should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes to those statements inlcuded elsewhere in this annual report. This discussion includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, such as those set forth in "Item 3. Key Information—D. Risk Factors" and elsewhere in this report.

A.	Operating Results

General

We sell marine petroleum products to customers primarily at a margin over PLATTS prices (benchmark market prices). PLATTS prices are quoted daily by region and by terms of delivery. We have not had a significant number of long-term written agreements with customers. Under a typical sales contract, a customer requests that we quote a fixed price per metric ton for the sale and delivery of a specified volume and classification of marine fuel on a given date. The customer requests a quotation several days prior to the delivery date. We generally do not quote prices for periods in excess of one week. Once an agreement has been made with a customer, we are deemed to be bound to deliver the specified quantity and classification of marine fuel at the quoted fixed price on the specified delivery date to an identified vessel at a named location. We remain responsible for securing the supply of marine fuel from the supplier and delivering the marine fuel to the customer's vessel.

We purchase marine petroleum products from reputable suppliers under either long-term supply contracts or on the spot markets at a margin over PLATTS prices. Except for our service centers in Gibraltar, the United Arab Emirates, the United Kingdom (until September 2015), Las Palmas, Panama, Barcelona, the U.S. East and West Coasts, Germany, and South Africa, we generally take deliveries of the products on the day of, or a few days prior to, the delivery of the products to our customer's vessel. In Gibraltar, the United Arab Emirates, the United Kingdom (until September 2015), Las Palmas, Panama, Barcelona, the U.S. East and West Coasts, Germany, and South Africa, we utilize our owned or leased storage facilities to generally take deliveries of products more than one but less than two weeks prior to delivery of the products to our customers. The cost of our marine fuel purchases is generally fixed at the date of our agreement, which is prior to the loading from the supplier's premises. Generally, under our long-term supply contracts, the supplier undertakes to supply us with a minimum quantity of marine fuel per month, subject to the agreed quantity as per our contract. Price calculations vary from supplier to supplier in terms of the supplier's margins, the referenced PLATTS prices and the calculation of the average PLATTS price. Depending on the agreement with each supplier, the referenced PLATTS price could be the spot price or an average price over a specified period.

We deliver marine petroleum products to our customers mainly through our bunkering vessels. We are responsible for paying our tankers' operating expenses, including the cost of crewing, insuring, repairing and maintaining the vessel, spares and consumable stores, tonnage taxes and other vessel-related expenses. Our bunkering tankers are not used for the transportation of petroleum products across oceans. Accordingly, a significant portion of our vessel operating expenses are fixed or semi-variable ( e.g. , a bunkering tanker's insurance costs, crew wages and certain other costs are incurred irrespective of the number of sales deliveries it makes during a period) and, as a group, represent the most significant operating expense for us other than the cost of the marine petroleum products to be sold to our customers.

We incur overhead costs to support our operations. In general, the logistics of purchasing marine fuel from suppliers and selling and delivering the fuel to customers are managed and coordinated by employees at our marketing and operating office in Greece, employees at our local service centers and the crews of our bunkering tankers.

Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations

We believe that the important measures for analyzing trends in our results of operations consist of the following:

Sales volume of marine fuel. We define the sales volume of marine fuel as the volume of sales of various classifications of marine fuel oil, or MFO, marine diesel oil, or MDO, and marine gas oil, or MGO, for the relevant period, measured in metric tons. The sales volume of marine fuel is an indicator of the size of our operations as it affects both the sales and the cost of marine petroleum products recorded during a given period. Sales volume of marine fuel does not include the sales volume of lubricants due to insignificant volumes for all periods presented.

Gross spread on marine petroleum products and gross spread per metric ton of marine fuel sold. Gross spread on marine petroleum products represents the margin that we generate on sales of marine fuel and lubricants. Gross spread on marine fuel represents the margin that we generate on sales of various classifications of MFO or MGO. Gross spread on lubricants represents the margin that we generate on sales of lubricants. We calculate the gross spreads by subtracting from the sales of the respective marine petroleum product the cost of the marine petroleum product sold. For arrangements in which we physically supply marine petroleum products using our bunkering tankers, costs of marine petroleum products sold represent amounts paid by us for marine petroleum products sold in the relevant reporting period. For arrangements in which marine petroleum products are purchased from our related company, Aegean Oil, cost of marine petroleum products sold represents the total amount paid by us to the physical supplier for marine petroleum products and their delivery to our customers. Gross spread per metric ton of marine fuel sold represents the margins we generate per metric ton of marine fuel sold. We calculate gross spread per metric ton of marine fuel sold by dividing the gross spread on marine fuel by the sales volume of marine fuel. Marine fuel sales do not include sales of lubricants. For arrangements in which we purchase cargos for our floating storage facilities, cargo transportation costs are either included in the purchase price of marine fuels that we paid to the supplier or to a third-party transportation provider.

The following table reflects the calculation of gross spread per metric ton of marine fuel sold for the periods presented:

	For the Year Ended December 31,

	2015		2014		2013		2012		2011

Gross spread per metric ton of marine fuel sold (in U.S. dollars)		22.0		26.6		25.4		25.0		24.0

The following table reconciles our gross spread on marine petroleum products sold to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, gross profit, for all periods presented:

	For the Year Ended December 31,
	2015		2014		2013		2012		2011

	( in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise stated)

Gross profit		331,829		337,094		285,992		302,649		276,298

The amount that we have to pay for marine petroleum products to fulfill a customer order has been the primary variable in determining the prices quoted to customers. Therefore, we evaluate gross spread per metric ton of marine fuel sold and gross spread on marine petroleum products in pricing individual transactions and in long-term strategic pricing decisions. We actively monitor our pricing and sourcing strategies in order to optimize our gross spread on marine petroleum products. We believe that this measure is important to investors because it is an effective intermediate performance measure of the strength of our operations.

Gross spread on marine petroleum products (including gross spread on marine fuel sold and gross spread on lubricants) and gross spread per metric ton of marine fuel sold should not be considered as alternatives to gross profit, operating income, net income or other U.S. GAAP measures and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Gross spread on marine petroleum products and gross spread per metric ton of marine fuel sold do not reflect certain direct and indirect costs of delivering marine petroleum products to our customers (such as crew salaries, vessel depreciation, storage costs, hire charges, other vessel operating expenses and overhead costs) or other costs of doing business.

For all the periods presented, we purchased marine petroleum products in Greece from our related company, Aegean Oil, which is a physical supplier in Greece. The cost of these marine petroleum products was contractually calculated based on Aegean Oil's actual cost of these products plus a margin. For further discussion on our relationship with Aegean Oil, please refer to "Item 7. Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions—B. Related Party Transactions—Aegean Oil S.A."

EBITDA represents net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA does not represent and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income or any other indicator of the Company's performance, as determined by U.S. GAAP, and our calculation of EBITDA may not be comparable to that reported by other companies. EBITDA is included herein because it is a basis upon which we assess our performance and because we believe that it presents useful information to investors regarding the Company's ability to service and/or incur indebtedness. The following table reconciles net income, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, to EBITDA for the periods presented:

	For the Year Ended December 31,

EBITDA		110,806		82,019		83,231			86,448		73,791

Number of markets served. The number of markets served is an indicator of the geographical distribution of our operations and affects both the amount of revenues and expenses that we record during a given period. The number of markets served includes our operations in the Greece (Piraeus and Patra), Gibraltar, United Arab Emirates (Fujairah, Khor Fakkan), Northern Europe (the ARA region and Belgium), Jamaica, Singapore, Canada (Vancouver and Montreal), United Kingdom (Portland until September 2015 and French Atlantic), Southern Caribbean (Trinidad and Tobago), Morocco (Tanger-Med), Canary Islands (Las Palmas and Tenerife beginning in June 2011), Panama, Hong Kong (from September 2012 until June 2013), Spain (Barcelona and Algeciras, beginning in April 2013 and August 2013, respectively), the U.S. East and West Coasts (beginning in December 2013 and December 2014, respectively), the Gulf of Mexico (beginning in December 2014), Germany (beginning in January 2015), Russia (beginning in February 2015), South America (beginning in January 2016) and South Africa (beginning in March 2016).

Average number of operating bunkering vessels . Average number of operating bunkering vessels is the number of operating bunkering vessels in our fleet for the relevant period, as measured by the sum of the number of days each bunkering vessel was used as a part of our fleet during the period divided by the cumulative number of calendar days in the period multiplied by the number of operating bunkering vessels at the end of the period. This figure does not take into account non-operating days due to either scheduled or unscheduled maintenance. The average number of operating bunkering vessels is an indicator of the size of our fleet and operations and affects both the amount of revenues and expenses that we record during a given period.

The following table reflects our sales volume of marine fuel, gross spread on marine petroleum products, gross spread per metric ton of marine fuel sold, number of service centers and average number of operating bunkering vessels for the periods indicated:

	Year Ended December 31,
	2015		2014		2013

Sales of Marine Petroleum Products and Gross Spread on Marine Petroleum Products

Our sales of marine petroleum products and gross spread on marine petroleum products consist of the sales revenue and gross spread that we generate on sales of marine fuel and lubricants.

Our sales of marine petroleum products are driven primarily by the number of our service centers, the number of operating bunkering tankers in our fleet, our sales prices and our credit terms and credit control process. The cost of marine petroleum products sold is driven primarily by availability of marine petroleum products, our purchasing methods, supplier cost prices and credit terms and our internal quality control processes. These drivers, in turn, are affected by a number of factors, including:

our entrance into new markets;

our purchasing methods of marine petroleum products;

our marketing strategy;

our vessel acquisitions and disposals;

PLATTS prices;

conditions in the international shipping and the marine fuel supply industries;

regulation of the marine fuel supply industry;

regulation of the tanker industry;

levels of supply of and demand for marine petroleum products;

levels of competition; and

other factors affecting our industry.

We sell and deliver marine petroleum products to a broad and diversified customer base, including international commercial shipping companies, governments and marine fuel traders and brokers. For the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, none of our customers accounted for more than 10% of our total revenues.

The commercial shipping industry generally purchases marine fuel on a spot basis and historically we have not had any long-term sales volume contracts with customers. On March 1, 2006, however, we entered into a long-term contract to supply minimum quantities of fuel at fixed prices to a commercial customer in Jamaica, which is scheduled to expire on December 31, 2018. As we expand our global network and increase our geographical coverage, we expect some of our customers to enter into long-term sales volume contracts.

In addition to our physical supply operations, from time to time, we may act as a trader, generally in locations where we do not have service centers. This business involves activities whereby we contract with third-party physical suppliers to sell us marine fuel and deliver the marine fuel to a customer in the relevant location. Accordingly, our trading activities do not involve our physical possession of marine fuel and require less complex logistical operations and infrastructure. As such, we typically earn a significantly lower gross spread from our trading activities than from our physical supply activities.

We purchase and take delivery of marine petroleum products from various suppliers under long-term volume contracts or on the spot market. Long-term supply contracts from third-parties allow us to minimize our exposure to supply shortages. In general, at each of our service centers except for Gibraltar, Morocco, the United Arab Emirates, the Canary Islands, Barcelona, the U.S. East and West Coasts, Germany and South Africa, we purchase from local supply sources.

Our cost of marine petroleum products includes purchases from related companies. In Greece, we purchase marine petroleum products from our related company Aegean Oil, which charges us its actual cost of the marine petroleum products plus a margin, pursuant to a supply contract that currently expires on December 31, 2016 and is renewable annually. For further discussion of our marine petroleum products purchases from Aegean Oil, please refer to the section of this annual report entitled "Item 7. Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions—B. Related Party Transactions—Aegean Oil S.A."

The following table reflects our cost of marine petroleum products sold, including the cargo transportation cost, incurred from third-party suppliers and from our related company suppliers for the periods indicated.

	Year Ended December 31,
	2015		2014		2013
	(in thousands of U.S. dollars)
Third-party suppliers		3,716,726		5,934,927		5,602,389
Related company suppliers		136,724		351,526		423,353
Total		3,853,450		6,286,453		6,025,742

We seek to increase our sales of marine petroleum products and our gross spread on marine petroleum products on an integrated basis, through expansion into new markets, acquisitions of double hull bunkering tankers and the diversification and further optimization of purchasing methods. Our gross spread on marine petroleum products differs for each of our service centers, reflecting the different competitive conditions that exist in the markets served by them. Factors affecting competitive conditions in a market that we service include customer demand, availability of supplies and the strength and number of competitors that operate in the market. We believe that for any new service centers that we may establish, gross spread on marine petroleum products may be lower than for our existing service centers. We also believe that the competitive conditions in the markets served by our existing service centers may generally be more favorable to us than those in other markets that we may consider for future expansion.

Voyage Revenues

Our voyage revenues, included in our total revenues, are primarily derived from the employment of our vessels, the Naxos and the Karpathos , under contracts with Aegean VIII, a company owned and controlled by relatives of Mr. Dimitris Melisanidis, our founder and Head of Corporate Development. During the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, we recorded revenue of $5.3 million and $3.4 million, respectively, in aggregate under these contracts.

Four of our vessels, the Aegean III , the Aegean VIII , the Aegean Tiffany , and the Aegean Breeze I, are employed under a contract with an unaffiliated third-party for the distribution of refined marine petroleum products to Greek ports. During the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, we recognized $2.3 million, $2.7 million and $3.3 million, respectively, of revenue under this contract.

Two of our vessels, the Amorgos and the Karpathos , were employed under contracts with Aegean V, a company owned and controlled by relatives of Mr. Dimitris Melisanidis. During the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, we recorded revenue of $0, $1.8 million, and $8.8 million, respectively, under these contracts, which expired during 2014.

During the year ended December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013, several of our vessels were employed under contracts with Aegean Oil, a company owned and controlled by relatives of Mr. Dimitris Melisanidis. During the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013, we recorded aggregate revenue of $2.7 million, $0, and $0, respectively, under these contracts.

During the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, the Aegean III , the Aegean VIII , the Aegean Tiffany , and the Aegean Breeze I , were employed under contracts with Hellenic Environmental Center, a company owned and controlled by relatives of Mr. Dimitris Melisanidis and recorded revenue of $0.1, $0.1 and $0.1, respectively.

Our voyage revenues are also derived from the employment of our vessels under charter agreements and the employment of our bunkering tankers under contracts with other unaffiliated third parties. During the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, we recorded revenue of $18.4 million, $22.4 million and $12.8 million, respectively, under these contracts.

Please also refer to the table in Note 18 to our consolidated financial statements included herein.

Other Revenues

Other revenues, included in our total revenues, consist of brokerage and agency fees, throughput fees, demurrages and storage fees. These revenues are recognized when services are performed and collectability is reasonably assured. Please also refer to the table in Note 18 to our consolidated financial statements included herein.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of marine petroleum products consists of purchase costs of marine petroleum products and direct receiving costs of marine petroleum products, as described above. Cost of voyage revenues consists of voyage expenses and vessel operating expenses attributable to the voyage revenue we earn from the chartering out of our vessels. These costs include salaries and wages of the crew, depreciation and other operating expenses of the vessels such as repairs, maintenance, stores, spare parts, insurance, consumables and bunkers consumption. Cost of other revenues consists of direct costs of incurring other revenues.

Selling and Distribution expenses

We separately present the selling and distribution expenses due to its individual significance to perform our operations. These expenses generally represent indirect expenses incurred for selling and distribution and related to the delivery of the products and services to the customers.

The selling and distribution expenses mainly consist of the following:

salaries of our traders and shoreside personnel responsible for operation of our vessels and the distribution and supervision of our marine petroleum products and lubricant products;

salaries and wages of the shipboard personnel, mainly under short-term contracts, of the owned vessels used for the delivery of the marine petroleum products to the end customer using these vessels;

depreciation and amortization of dry-docking costs and other operating expenses of the owned vessels (such as repair, maintenance, stores, spare parts, insurance, consumables) and bunkers consumption of the owned vessels used for the delivery of the marine petroleum products to the end customer using these vessels;

vessel hire charges related to the hiring of third-party vessels used for the delivery of the marine petroleum products to the end customer;

storage costs, which mainly consist of the expenses of our floating storage facilities and our owned and leased on-land storage facilities;

bad debt provision, which has remained low in the past several years due to our effective credit control process and we expect it will remain at low levels; and

other costs, which mainly consist of port expenses, brokerage fees, laboratory analysis expenses, advertising expenses, supervising, inspections and survey costs.

We employ salaried employees at our offices in Greece, New York, Belgium, Singapore and Germany, where most of our sales and marketing, operations and technical departments are located, and at each of our service centers. We maintain a minimal number of salaried employees at our service centers, where we typically employ a local operations manager and staff to support the logistical aspects of our operations.

The cost of our vessels depreciates on a straight-line basis over the expected useful life of each vessel. We follow the deferral method of accounting for drydocking costs under which actual costs incurred are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the period through the date the next drydocking is scheduled.

Our selling and distribution costs have been reduced over the past three years by selling our older or single hull vessels, which we assessed to be non-essential for our business. During the year ended December 31, 2015, our selling and distribution costs decreased due to the effects of the decrease in marine fuel prices on our bunker consumption.

General and administrative expenses

We separately present the general and administrative expenses, which mainly consist of the salaries and wages of the management and the general directors, the office administrative, legal, accounting and finance personnel, the depreciation of the office property, equipment and other fixed assets and the general office expenses, legal, auditing and professional fees, communal charges, travel expenses, maintenance of the Company's property, rent and utilities. During the year ended December 31, 2015, our general and administrative expenses have increased due to the expansion of our business into new service centers.

Interest and Finance Costs

We have historically incurred interest expense and financing costs in connection with long-term debt to partially finance the acquisitions of our vessels and other non-current assets and in connection with short-term bank borrowings obtained for working capital purposes and business acquisitions. We capitalize interest incurred during the construction periods for financing our investments in bunkering vessels and storage facilities We have incurred and expect to continue incurring interest expense and financing costs under our existing credit facilities used to finance the construction of our newbuilding bunkering tankers and our other senior secured credit facilities and convertible senior notes. We expect that interest and finance costs will increase further due to increased drawdowns under our credit facilities to finance our operations and capital expenditures.

Income Taxes

We are incorporated in the Marshall Islands. Under Marshall Islands law, we are not subject to tax on income or capital gains. Under the laws of the countries of incorporation of our vessel-owning subsidiaries and our subsidiaries that operate service centers and the laws of the countries of our vessels' registration, our vessel-owning companies are generally not subject to tax on our income that is characterized as shipping income.

Income taxes have been provided for based upon the tax laws and rates in effect in the countries in which our operations are conducted and income is earned. There is no expected relationship between the provision for/or benefit from income taxes and income or loss before income taxes because the countries in which we operate have taxation regimes that vary not only with respect to the nominal rate, but also in terms of the availability of deductions, credits and other benefits. Variations also arise because income earned and taxed in any particular country or countries may fluctuate from year to year. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the anticipated future tax effects of temporary differences between the financial statement basis and the tax basis of our assets and liabilities using the applicable jurisdictional tax rates in effect at the year end. A valuation allowance for deferred tax assets is recorded when it is more likely than not that some or all of the benefit from the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

Our corporate income tax exposure is in taxable jurisdictions, such as Gibraltar, Jamaica, Singapore, Belgium, the United States, Canada and Germany.

Our business is affected by taxes imposed on the purchase and sale of marine petroleum products in various jurisdictions in which we operate from time to time. These taxes include income, sales, excise, goods and services taxes, value-added taxes and other taxes. Other than in the United States, Canada and Belgium, we do not pay a material amount of tax in any jurisdiction in which we operate. For the year ended 2015, our income tax amounted to $3.4 million. For the year ended December 31, 2014, our income tax amount to $0.5 million and for the year ended December 31, 2013, we recorded a tax benefit of $1.0 million. The income tax amounts are mainly attributable to our United States, Canadian and Belgian operations.

Results of Operations

Year ended December 31, 2015 compared to the year ended December 31, 2014

Sales of Marine Petroleum Products. Sales of marine petroleum products decreased by $2,435.5 million, or 37.0%, to $4,155.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to $6,591.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease of $3,083.9 million related to a decrease in the price of marine fuel and a decrease of $6.6 million related to a decrease in lubricants sales, which was partially offset by an increase of $655.0 million which was attributable to an increase in marine fuel sales volume. Sales volume of marine fuel increased by 2,150,093 metric tons, or 19.0%, to 13,482,478 metric tons for the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to 11,332,385 metric tons for the year ended December 31, 2014, due to our expansion into new markets.

Voyage Revenues. Voyage revenues decreased by $1.6 million, or 5.3%, to $28.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to $30.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. The decrease was attributable to the expiration of the charter out of our leased vessel, the Charleston .

Other Revenues. Other revenues increased by $7.0 million, or 17.3%, to $47.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to $40.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. The increase in other revenues for the year ended December 31, 2015, was attributable to the storage revenue we received from our facility in Fujairah.

Revenues from related companies. Revenues from related companies included in the sales of marine petroleum products and voyage revenues for the year ended December 31, 2015 were $11.7 million and $8.2 million, respectively, compared to $31.2 million and $5.3 million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2014. Voyage revenues from related companies increased mainly due to revenues of $2.7 million under our new contract with Aegean Oil.

Cost of revenue . The cost of sales of marine petroleum products decreased by $2,433.0 million, or 38.7%, to $3,853.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to $6,286.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. The decrease in the cost of marine petroleum products was attributable to the decrease in the price of marine fuel. The cost of purchases from related parties included in the cost of sales of marine petroleum products decreased by $214.8 million, or 61.1%, to $136.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2015 due to the price decline of approximately 50%, compared to $351.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. The cost of voyage and other revenues for the year ended December 31, 2015 increased by $8.1 million, or 21.1%, to $46.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2015 due to costs related to our storage facility in Fujairah, compared to $38.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Gross Profit and Gross Spread on Marine Petroleum Products. Gross spread on marine petroleum products decreased slightly by $2.4 million, or 0.8%, to $302.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to $304.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. The contribution of the gross profit on voyage and other revenues for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $14.0 million and $15.8 million, respectively, compared to 15.7 million and $16.9 million respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2014. Our gross spread per metric ton of marine fuel sold during the year ended December 31, 2015 decreased by $4.2, or 15.8%, to $22.0, compared to $26.6 for the year ended December 31, 2014. Gross spreads per metric ton do not generally increase or decrease proportionately with the price of marine fuel. Accordingly, gross spread on marine petroleum products, as a percentage of total revenues, for the year ended December 31, 2015, increased to 7.1%, from 4.6%, for the year ended December 31, 2014. Gross spread on marine petroleum products and gross spread per metric ton of marine fuel sold are non-U.S. GAAP measures and should not be considered as alternatives to operating income, net income or other U.S. GAAP measures and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Please see "—Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations" for a reconciliation of gross spread on marine petroleum products to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure.

Selling and Distribution. Selling and distribution expenses decreased by $15.7 million, or 7.1%, to $205.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to $220.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. This decrease was mainly due to the drop in our bunkers consumption after the decrease in marine fuel prices.

General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses increased by $5.2 million, or 13.6%, to $43.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to $38.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. This increase derives from the new offices we established during the year as a result of our expansion into new markets.

Interest and Finance Costs. Interest and finance costs increased by $3.7 million, or 10.9%, to $37.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to $33.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, mainly due to the end of the interest capitalization period.

Income taxes. Income tax expense increased by $3.0 million, or 750%, to $3.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to $0.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, mainly due to the higher operating income of our taxable entities.

Year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the year ended December 31, 2013

Sales of Marine Petroleum Products. Sales of marine petroleum products increased by $308.5 million, or 4.9%, to $6,591.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to $6,282.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase of $1.7 million related to an increase in lubricants sales and an increase of $802.4 million related to an increase in marine fuel sales, which was partially offset by a decrease of $495.6 million which was attributable to a 8.0% decrease in the average price of marine fuel (using average prices for the year ended December 31, 2014). Sales volume of marine fuel increased by 1,391,324 metric tons, or 14.0%, to 11,332,385 metric tons for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to 9,941,061 metric tons for the year ended December 31, 2013, due to expansion to new markets in the U.S. East Coast.

Voyage Revenues. Voyage revenues increased by $5.4 million, or 21.6%, to $30.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to $25.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. The increase was attributable to our efforts to increase our vessels utilization by chartering out more vessels not currently operating on the sale of marine petroleum products.

Other Revenues. Other revenues increased by $13.2 million, or 48.5%, to $40.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to $27.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. Other revenues for the year ended December 31, 2014 were attributable to the barging revenues separately charged to our customers in the U.S. East Coast, where we commenced operations in December 2013.

Revenues from related companies. Revenues from related companies included in the sales of marine petroleum products and voyage revenues for the year ended December 31, 2014 were $31.2 million and $5.3 million, respectively, compared to $22.8 million and $8.8 million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2013. Voyage revenues from related companies decreased mainly due to revenues from Aegean V of $1.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to $8.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Cost of revenue . The cost of sales of marine petroleum products increased by $260.8 million, or 4.3%, to $6,286.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to $6,025.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. The increase in the cost of marine petroleum products was attributable to the increase in the volumes sold. The cost of purchases from related parties included in the cost of sales of marine petroleum products decreased by $71.9 million, or 17.0%, to $351.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 due to the decrease in the price of marine fuel, compared to $423.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. The cost of voyage and other revenues for the year ended December 31, 2014 increased by $15.3 million, or 66.5%, to $38.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 due to the increase in voyage and other revenues, compared to $23.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Gross Profit and Gross Spread on Marine Petroleum Products. Gross spread on marine petroleum products increased by $47.8 million, or 18.6%, to $304.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to $256.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. The increase in our gross spread on marine petroleum products mainly resulted from the increase in volume delivered. The contribution of the gross profit on voyage and other revenues for the year ended December 31, 2014 was $15.7 million and $16.9 million, respectively, compared to $8.8 million and $20.4 million respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2013. Our gross spread per metric ton of marine fuel sold during the year ended December 31, 2014 increased by $1.2, or 4.7%, to $26.6, compared to $25.4 for the year ended December 31, 2013. Gross spreads per metric ton do not generally increase or decrease proportionately with the price of marine fuel. Accordingly, gross spread on marine petroleum products, as a percentage of total revenues, for the year ended December 31, 2014, increased to 4.6%, from 4.1%, for the year ended December 31, 2013. Gross spread on marine petroleum products and gross spread per metric ton of marine fuel sold are non-U.S. GAAP measures and should not be considered as alternatives to operating income, net income or other U.S. GAAP measures and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Please see "—Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations" for a reconciliation of gross spread on marine petroleum products to the most directly comparable U.S.GAAP measure.

Selling and Distribution. Selling and distribution expenses increased by $19.2 million, or 9.5%, to $220.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to $201.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. This increase was mainly due to our acquisition of the U.S. East Coast business incurred on December 18, 2013. Please also refer to Note 3 to our consolidated financial statements included herein.

General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses increased by $8.4 million, or 28.3%, to $38.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to $29.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. This increase derives from our expansion in the U.S. East Coast during the year ended December 31, 2014.

Interest and Finance Costs. Interest and finance costs increased by $5.8 million, or 20.6% to $33.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to $28.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, mainly due to our issuance of 4.00% Convertible Unsecured Senior Notes due 2018.

Income taxes. Income taxes increased by $1.4 million, or 140%, to $0.4 million income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to $1.0 million income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2013, mainly due to the higher operating income of our taxable entities.

Inflation

Inflation has had only a moderate effect on our expenses given recent economic conditions. In the event that significant global inflationary pressures appear, these pressures would increase our operating costs.

Critical Accounting Policies

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of such financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our consolidated financial statements. Historically our estimates have been fairly accurate; however, actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.

Critical accounting policies are those that reflect significant judgments of uncertainties and potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. These estimates would change in the future if they constantly deviate from the actual results or if the financial circumstances change. We have described below what we believe to be our most critical accounting policies, because they generally involve a comparatively higher degree of judgment in their application. For a description of all our significant accounting policies, see Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included herein.

Trade Receivables and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

We extend credit on an unsecured basis to many of our customers. There is uncertainty over the level of collectability of customer accounts. Our management is responsible for approving credit limits above certain amounts, setting and maintaining credit standards, and managing the overall quality of our credit portfolio. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers and adjust credit limits based upon payment history and the customer's current credit worthiness. Accounts receivable are deemed past due based on contractual terms agreed with our customers.

We continuously monitor collections and payments from our customers and maintain a provision for estimated credit losses based upon our historical experience with our customers, current market and industry conditions of our customers and any specific customer collection issues that we have identified.

We transfer ownership of eligible trade accounts receivable to a third-party purchaser without recourse in exchange of cash. The factoring of trade accounts receivable under the agreement is accounted for as a sale. Proceeds from the transfer reflect the face value of the account less a discount. The receivables sold pursuant to this factoring agreement are excluded from trade accounts receivable on our consolidated balance sheets and are reflected as cash provided by operating activities on our consolidated statements of cash flows. We do not record a servicing asset or liability on our consolidated balance sheets because we estimate that the fee we receive is at fair value. Servicing fees are recorded in the interest and finance costs in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. We continue to service, administer and collect the receivables sold under this program. The third-party purchaser has no recourse to our assets for failure of debtors to pay when due.

Accounts and notes receivable are reduced by an allowance for amounts that may become uncollectible in the future. At the end of each reporting period, we calculate an allowance for doubtful accounts based on an aging schedule where we apply set percentages to categories of overdue trade receivables. These set percentages are based on historical experience and currently available management information on customer accounts. Furthermore, we provide appropriate allowances for any specific customer collection issue we identify which allowance is calculated on a case-by-case basis. Trade receivables are written off when it becomes apparent based upon age or customer circumstances that such amounts will not be collected.

We believe the level of our allowance for doubtful accounts is reasonable based on our experience and our analysis of the net realizable value of our trade receivables during each reporting period. The estimates driving the calculation of our allowance for doubtful accounts have not changed in the past periods and we do not expect these estimates to change in the foreseeable future because they have resulted and we believe that they will continue to result in accurate calculations of our allowance for doubtful accounts. We cannot guarantee that we will continue to experience the same credit loss rates that we have experienced in the past, since adverse changes in the marine industry or changes in the liquidity or financial position of our customers could have a material adverse effect on the collectability of our trade receivables and our future operating results. If credit losses exceed established allowances, our results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected.

Vessel Depreciation

We record the value of our vessels at their cost (which includes acquisition costs directly attributable to the vessel, capitalized interest and expenditures made to prepare the vessel for its initial voyage) less accumulated depreciation and impairment, if any. We depreciate our vessels on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Depreciation is based on cost less the estimated residual scrap value.

We estimate the useful lives for our bunkering and in-land waterway tankers to be 30 years and 45 years, respectively, from the date of initial delivery to us from the shipyard. Furthermore, we estimate the useful life of our floating storage facilities to be 30 years from the date of acquisition. Secondhand vessels are depreciated from the date of their acquisition through their remaining estimated useful lives. However, when regulations place limitations on the ability of a vessel to trade, its useful life is adjusted to end at the date such regulations become effective. We estimate the residual scrap values of our vessels to be $175 per light-weight ton. We form these estimates based on our experience and the prevailing practices of other companies in the bunkering and shipping industries.

An increase in the estimated useful life of a tanker or in its estimated residual value would have the effect of decreasing the annual depreciation charge and extending it into later periods. A decrease in the estimated useful life of a tanker or in its estimated residual value would have the effect of increasing the annual depreciation charge and may result in an impairment charge. A 20% decrease in the remaining estimated useful lives of our vessels would increase our depreciation charge for the year ended December 31, 2015 by $4.3 million.

Our estimates of the useful lives of our vessels and of the residual scrap values of our vessels have not changed in the past periods.

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

We evaluate the carrying amounts of our long-lived assets to determine if events have occurred which would require modification to their carrying values. In evaluating useful lives and carrying values of long-lived assets, we review certain indicators of potential impairment, such as vessel sale and purchase prices in the marketplace, business plans and overall market conditions. If an indicator of impairment exists, we determine undiscounted projected net operating cash flow for each vessel or group of vessels and compare it to the relevant carrying value. In developing estimates of future cash flows, we rely upon estimates made by management with regard to our vessels, including future deliveries, operating expenses, and the estimated remaining useful lives of the vessels. These assumptions are based on historical trends as well as future expectations and are consistent with the plans and forecasts used by management to conduct its business. The variability of these factors depends on a number of conditions, including uncertainty about future events and general economic conditions; therefore, our accounting estimates might change from period to period. As a consequence, our estimates of undiscounted cash flows involve sensitivity tests on the sales volume, average inflation rate, and gross spread. In the event that undiscounted projected net operating cash flows were less than carrying value, we would estimate the fair value of the related asset and record a charge to operations calculated by comparing the asset's carrying value to the estimated fair value. When performing impairment assessments, management would generally consider vessel valuation reports obtained from third-party valuation specialists.

The fair market value of the vessels that we currently own or may acquire in the future may increase or decrease depending on a number of factors, including general economic and market conditions affecting the international marine fuel supply industry, supply and demand for bunkering tankers, costs of newbuildings and governmental or other regulations. If we sell any vessel when vessel prices have fallen and before we have recorded impairment adjustment to our financial statements, the sale may be at less than the vessel's carrying amount on our financial statements, resulting in a loss. Such loss could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and our ability to pay dividends to our shareholders.

Goodwill and intangible assets

Intangible assets consist of concession agreements, in the United Kingdom (until September 2015), Canary Islands and Panama, a non-compete covenant in Belgium, an acquired time chartering agreement in the United States (until September 2014) and goodwill derived from the Company's acquisitions in Belgium, Canada and United States. In connection with the acquisitions of Portland Bunkers International Limited, Las Palmas Business and Panama, we recorded identifiable intangible assets and concession agreements which convey to an exclusive right to perform bunkering operations in the port of Portland, Las Palmas and Panama over a specified period of time. In September 2015, we ceased our operations in the Portland terminal and we wrote off the unamortized value of the intangible asset associated with the concession agreement we were granted by the Portland Port Authorities. These assets are being amortized over their useful life. In connection with our acquisition of the U.S. East Coast business, we acquired an agreement for the chartering-in of a barging vessel. We recorded the estimated fair value of this acquired agreement, which includes a fixed day rate that is below the day rate available as of the acquisition date, and we amortized it over the duration of the contract. Goodwill derived from our acquisitions is not amortized, but reviewed as of December 31 of each year for impairment. We also evaluate goodwill for impairment at any time that events occur or circumstances change indicating a possible impairment. The Company tests for goodwill impairment using the two-step process. The first step is a screen for potential impairment, while the second step measures the amount of impairment. Fair values are derived using discounted cash flow analysis.

We calculated the fair value of the reporting unit using the discounted cash flow method, and determined that the fair value of the reporting unit exceeded its book value, including the goodwill. The discounted cash flows calculation is subject to historical data and to management judgment related to revenue growth, capacity utilization, the weighted average cost of capital of approximately 8%, and the future price of marine fuel products. Although we believe that the assumptions used to evaluate potential impairment are reasonable and appropriate, such assumptions are subjective. We perform sensitivity tests on our sale volume, gross spread, net operating cash flows, average inflation and growth rate. No impairment loss was recorded for any of the periods presented.

Deferred Drydock Cost

Our vessels are generally required to be drydocked approximately every 30 to 60 months for major repairs and maintenance that cannot be performed while the vessels are operating. We capitalize the costs associated with drydockings as they occur and amortize these costs on a straight-line basis over the period between drydockings. Costs capitalized as part of the drydocking include actual costs incurred at the drydock yard and parts used in making such repairs that are reasonably made in anticipation of reducing the duration or cost of the drydocking; cost of travel, lodging and subsistence of our personnel sent to the drydocking site to supervise; and the cost of hiring a third-party to oversee a drydocking. We believe that these types of capitalized costs are consistent with practice among other companies in our industry that apply this method of accounting and that our policy of capitalization reflects the economics and market values of the vessels.

Although many companies in our industry apply this method of accounting for deferred drydock costs, some companies apply other methods of accounting, such as expensing drydock costs as incurred. If we were to adopt that method of accounting as our accounting policy, our drydock costs would have been as disclosed under the heading "As Incurred" in the table below, for the periods presented therein.

	Average Number of Vessels				Drydock Costs
Year Ended December 31,	Bunkering		Non-bunkering		As Reported		As Incurred
					(in thousands of U.S. dollars)
2015		48.8		14.9		6,704		8,690
2014		50.2		14.8		5,536		10,229
2013		53.8		9.2		7,078		8,929

The table above discloses the average number of vessels that we have owned in each of the periods presented and the drydock costs that we have reported. In the future, depending on the date a newly-purchased secondhand vessel is drydocked prior to its delivery to us, we may pay drydocking costs and incur subsequent amortization expense of these costs sooner after delivery than if the vessel had been owned by us throughout its life. This would increase our average drydocking expenses in periods immediately following the acquisition.

We expect to first pay drydocking costs and incur subsequent amortization expense of these costs approximately 30 months after the delivery of each of our newbuilding vessels under our newbuilding program. This would decrease our average drydocking expenses in periods immediately following the acquisition of a newbuilding vessel since we would have no such costs to amortize in respect of these vessels until they were first drydocked. Under our newbuilding program, we contracted for the construction of 31 double hull newbuilding bunkering tankers, which were delivered to us between 2007 and 2012.

Our estimates of the frequency of required drydocking of our vessels have not changed in the past periods. We do not expect these estimates to change in the future because we believe they will continue to accurately represent the frequency of drydocking inspections necessary for the maintenance of our vessels.

Recent Developments

On January 8, 2016, we commenced bunker trading operations in the South American market.

On March 31, 2016, we commenced physical supply operations in South Africa's Algoa Bay.

On March 23, 2016, we took delivery of Umnenga , a 66,895 dwt double-hull bunkering tanker built in 1993, to deploy in our service station in South Africa. The vessel was purchased from a third-party seller for $8.6 million. The vessel purchase was financed with a portion of the proceeds we received from a new $13 million credit facility, with the remainder of proceeds used to repay the 2008 Overdraft Facility (see "B.–Liquidity and Capital Resources" below).

On April 14, 2016, we signed a Memorandum of Agreement to sell our vessel Aegean Champion , a 23,400 dwt double hull bunkering tanker built in 1991, to a third-party purchaser for a purchase price of $5.7 million, resulting in a total loss of approximately $1.5 million. We expect to deliver this vessel to its new owner on May 9, 2016.

B.	Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our treasury activities are controlled centrally by our treasury department, which is located at our offices in Greece. Our treasury department administers our working capital resources, including our current accounts, time deposits, overdrafts and bank loans. Our liquidity objective is to maintain an optimum daily net cash position, which takes into consideration immediate working capital and operational requirements, as well as short- to medium-term capital expenditure requirements, but which would not result in an unnecessary net cash surplus. In this way, we seek to maximize available cash to reinvest in our business. Our policy is to minimize the use of time deposits, financial instruments or other forms of investments, which we believe generate lower levels of return than the return on our invested capital.

Our cash is primarily denominated in U.S. dollars because our sales of marine petroleum products are denominated in U.S. dollars. Our service centers pay their operating expenses in various currencies, primarily the Euro, the United Arab Emirates dirham, the Gibraltar pound, the Canadian dollar, the Jamaican dollar, the Singapore dollar, the Russian ruble, the South African rand, and the Brazilian real. Our treasury department transfers cash to our service centers monthly on an as-needed basis and, accordingly, we maintain low levels of foreign currency at our service centers.

Under the laws of jurisdictions where our subsidiaries are located, there are currently no restrictions on the export or import of capital, including foreign exchange controls or restrictions that materially affect the remittance of dividends, loans, interest or other payments. Most of our vessel-owning subsidiaries have long-term bank loans outstanding that were obtained to partially finance the acquisition cost of their vessels. Most of these vessel-owning companies are not permitted to pay any dividends without the lender's prior consent. However, these vessel-owning companies generally do not generate third-party revenues and do not possess material amounts of excess cash. Therefore, these restrictions on our vessel-owning companies' ability to pay dividends to us should not materially impact our ability to meet our cash obligations. Accordingly, there are no significant restrictions on our ability to access and mobilize our capital resources located around the world.

We have funded our business primarily through: (i) cash generated from operations, (ii) equity capital and convertible notes issuances, (iii) short-term borrowings from banks, (iv) long-term bank debt and (v) trade receivables purchase agreements. We believe that our working capital resources are sufficient for our present requirements.

We have revolving credit facilities that provide for borrowings up to certain amounts for working capital purposes as well as a sublimit for the issuance of standby letters of credit. Furthermore, we have long-term debt facilities with several banks used to partially finance the acquisition costs of several of our vessels or land-based storage facilities. The credit agreements for the long-term debt facilities are secured with first priority mortgages over certain of our vessels or land-based storage facilities.

Convertible Bond

4.00% Convertible Unsecured Senior Notes due 2018 . On October 23, 2013, we issued $75.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.00% Convertible Unsecured Senior Notes, or the Initial Notes, which are due November 1, 2018. The full over allotment option granted was exercised and an additional $11.3 million Initial Notes were purchased by the underwriters. Accordingly, $86.3 million in aggregate principal amount of the Initial Notes was sold, resulting in aggregate net proceeds of approximately $83.4 million after the underwriters' commissions. We have bifurcated, at the issuance date, the $86.3 million principal amount of the Initial Notes into liability and equity components of $72.7 million and $13.6 million, respectively, by first determining the carrying amount of the liability component of the Initial Notes by measuring the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an associated equity component. The equity component was calculated by deducting the fair value of the liability component from the total proceeds received at issuance.

On January 16, 2015, we issued an additional $48.3 million aggregate principal amount of the Initial Notes, or the New Notes, and together with the Initial Notes, the Notes, including the full exercise by the underwriters of the overallotment option, resulting in aggregate net proceeds of approximately $52.2 million after the underwriters' commissions and before expenses. The New Notes have the same terms (other than issue date and public offering price) as the Initial Notes and rank pari passu with, and vote together with, the holders of the Initial Notes. The New Notes also have the same CUSIP number and ISIN as the Initial Notes and are fungible with the Initial Notes for trading purposes.

As of December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the aggregate outstanding liability under the Notes was $120.6 and $75.4 million, respectively.

Trade Receivables Purchase Agreement

On October 17 2011, AMP entered into a factoring agreement for up to $102.5 million pursuant to which we transfer ownership of eligible trade accounts receivables to a third party purchaser without recourse in exchange for cash. Proceeds from the transfer reflect the face value of the account less a discount. The receivables sold pursuant to this factoring agreement are included in the trade receivables on the consolidated balance sheets and are reflected as cash provided by operating activities on the consolidated statements of cash flows. The third party purchaser has no recourse to our assets for failure of debtors to pay when due. We renewed the agreement on November 12, 2012, on October 2, 2013, November 12, 2013, and November 13, 2014. On November 13, 2015, the factoring agreement was amended and restated to, among other things, reduce the purchase limit to up to $56.2 million. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, we sold $178.5 million and $473.8 million trade accounts receivables, respectively, pursuant to this agreement.

Covenants

Our credit facilities generally contain financial covenants, which require us to maintain, among other things:

minimum net equity of between $175.0 million to $250.0 million, depending on the applicable credit facility;

consolidated net tangible net worth of $410.0 million;

minimum market value adjusted net worth or book net worth of between $175.0 million and $410.0 million;

minimum solvency ratio on the statutory financial statements of our subsidiary ANWE of 20%;

minimum working capital of $125 million;

minimum interest coverage ratio of at least 1.9-to-one;

minimum current ratio of 1.15-to-one;

aggregate minimum liquidity of between $25.0 million and $30.0 million and minimum liquidity ratio of more than 0.50-to-one;

maximum ratio of total liabilities to total assets of between 0.70-to-one and 0.75-to-one; and

minimum consolidated leverage ratio of 0.75-to-one.

The agreements governing our indebtedness also contain restrictions and undertakings, including, among other things:

the requirement to maintain the listing of our shares of common stock on the NYSE;

restrictions on our payment of dividends and distribution of assets;

restrictions on our incurrence of debt;

the requirement to maintain a minimum value of collateral;

restrictions on our ability to merge or consolidate;

restrictions on our ability to acquire additional vessels;

restrictions on changes in our business activities; and

change of control restrictions.

Our secured credit facilities are generally secured by, among other things:

a first priority mortgage over each of the applicable pledged vessels or storage facility in favor of each of our lenders;

assignments of earnings, insurances and requisition of compensation of each of the mortgaged vessels; and

corporate guarantees.

A violation of any of the financial covenants contained in our credit facilities described above may constitute an event of default under our credit facilities, which, unless cured within the grace period set forth under the credit facility, if applicable, or waived or modified by our lenders, provides our lenders with the right to, among other things, require us to post additional collateral, enhance our equity and liquidity, increase our interest payments, pay down our indebtedness to a level where we are in compliance with our loan covenants, sell vessels in our fleet, reclassify our indebtedness as current liabilities and accelerate our indebtedness and foreclose their liens on our vessels and the other assets securing the credit facilities, which would impair our ability to continue to conduct our business.

Furthermore, certain of our credit facilities contain a cross-default provision that may be triggered by a default under one of our other credit facilities. A cross-default provision means that a default on one loan would result in a default on certain of our other loans. Because of the presence of cross-default provisions in certain of our credit facilities, the refusal of any one lender under our credit facilities to grant or extend a waiver could result in certain of our indebtedness being accelerated, even if our other lenders under our credit facilities have waived covenant defaults under the respective credit facilities. If our secured indebtedness is accelerated in full or in part, it would be very difficult in the current financing environment for us to refinance our debt or obtain additional financing and we could lose our vessels and other assets securing our credit facilities if our lenders foreclose their liens, which would adversely affect our ability to conduct our business.

Moreover, in connection with any waivers of or amendments to our credit facilities that we have obtained, or may obtain in the future, our lenders may impose additional operating and financial restrictions on us or modify the terms of our existing credit facilities. These restrictions may further restrict our ability to, among other things, pay dividends, make capital expenditures or incur additional indebtedness, including through the issuance of guarantees. In addition, our lenders may require the payment of additional fees, require prepayment of a portion of our indebtedness to them, accelerate the amortization schedule for our indebtedness and increase the interest rates they charge us on our outstanding indebtedness.

As of December 31, 2015, we were in compliance with all of the financial covenants contained in our credit facilities.

Liquidity and Uses of Cash

Cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, amounted $139.3 million and $129.6 million, respectively. The table below illustrates our working capital and working capital excluding cash and debt as of December 31, 2015 and 2014. Working capital is defined as current assets less current liabilities.

The marine fuel supply industry is capital intensive. The timing and levels of operational cash flows are important aspects of our business. Our periodic cash flows from operations are mainly dependent on our periodic working capital, excluding cash and debt. Accordingly, we use working capital excluding cash and debt to monitor changes in our operational working capital accounts such as trade receivables, inventories and trade payables, and to assess the current strength and to predict the future state of our cash flows from operations. Our periodic working capital excluding cash and debt is partly driven by our sales volume growth rates for the relevant periods. As a result, the higher the sales volume growth rates are, the larger the working capital investment needed to purchase and sell the increased quantities of fuel. A larger working capital investment decreases our operational cash flows for the relevant periods. Furthermore, significant period-on-period movement in the average outstanding days of our trade receivables, inventories and trade payables considerably impacts our periodic working capital excluding cash and debt positions and our operational cash flows. Finally, significant fluctuations in marine fuel prices materially affect our periodic working capital excluding cash and debt. A period-on-period increase in marine fuel prices increases the level of working capital investment needed to purchase the same quantity of marine fuel. Accordingly, we would have to increase our working capital investment at a multiple of the increase in marine fuel prices in order to increase our sales volumes.

	As of December 31,
	2015		2014

	(in thousands of U.S. dollars)

Working capital		341,841		202,593
Working capital excluding cash and debt		477,594		428,326

Our working capital, excluding cash (and restricted cash) and debt, increased to $477.6 million as of December 31, 2015 from $428.3 million as of December 31, 2014. Our working capital position also increased to $341.8 million as of December 31, 2015 from $202.6 million as of December 31, 2014.

As of December 31, 2015, we had $1.077 million in available liquidity, which includes unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $139.3 million and available undrawn amounts under our working capital facilities of $937.2 million to finance working capital requirements.

We primarily use our cash to fund marine petroleum product purchases for resale to our customers. Except for transactions with our related company, Aegean Oil, in which we usually have extended unsecured trade credit, we obtain secured trade credit from our suppliers against a standby letter of credit. In certain cases, we purchase quality marine petroleum products from certain suppliers at discounted prices with cash on or near delivery. Our ability to fund marine petroleum product purchases, obtain trade credit from our suppliers and provide standby letters of credit is critical to the success of our business. Increases in oil prices negatively impact our liquidity by increasing the amount of cash needed to fund marine petroleum product purchases as well as reducing the volume of marine petroleum products which can be purchased on a secured credit basis from our suppliers.

We also use our cash to fund the acquisition or construction costs of vessels and our land-based storage terminal in Fujairah, as well as to fund the maintenance cost of our vessels. The following table illustrates the cash paid for the acquisition and construction of vessels, the construction of the Fujairah terminal and the cash paid for drydocking of our vessels for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013.

	Year Ended December 31,
	2015		2014		2013
	(in thousands of U.S. dollars)
Payments for vessel acquisitions		-		7,786		-
Payments for vessel construction		2,979		2,730		1,585
Payments for drydocking		9,502		10,304		8,999
Payments for other fixed assets under construction		5,391		61,405		62,675
Payments for other fixed assets		771		7,955		5,136

We do not anticipate any payments for vessel construction in the coming years due to the completion of our newbuilding vessels. Currently, we have no bunkering tankers on order.

Currently, we intend to purchase only secondhand double hull bunkering tankers, which are generally more costly than secondhand single hull bunkering tankers. Payments for drydocking are expected to remain the same during the year 2016.

We intend to fund our growth strategy, which may include further acquisitions of additional vessels or investments in other energy-related projects using either cash on hand and cash flow from operations or new long-term bank debt.

We anticipate that, assuming market conditions are consistent with our historical experience, cash on hand, internally generated cash flow and borrowings under our credit facilities will be sufficient to fund our future expansion and our working capital requirements. In the future we may consider raising funds through additional equity or debt offerings, depending on our future business plans.

Our beliefs, intentions, plans and expectations concerning liquidity and our ability to obtain financing are based on currently available information. To the extent this information proves to be inaccurate, or if circumstances change, future availability of trade credit or other sources of financing may be reduced and our liquidity would be adversely affected. Factors that may affect the availability of trade credit, or other financing, include our performance, the state of worldwide credit markets, and our levels of outstanding debt. In addition, we may decide to raise additional funds to respond to competitive pressures or changes in market conditions, to fund future growth, or to acquire vessels. We cannot guarantee that financing will be available when needed or desired, or on terms favorable to us.

Cash Flow

Net Cash Used In/Provided by Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $49.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to $182.2 million for the same period in 2014. This decrease was mainly attributable to the decrease in fuel prices towards the end of the year December 31, 2015 and the prepayments to oil suppliers.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $182.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to $40.6 million for the same period in 2013. This increase was directly attributable to the fuel price decrease towards the end of the year ended December 31, 2014.

Net Cash Used In/Provided by Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $7.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to $59.5 million for the same period in 2014. During 2015, we paid $3.0 million for the construction of our non self-propelled tanker barge, the PT40 , and $5.4 million in connection with the construction of our storage facility in Fujairah. Furthermore, $1.5 million of restricted cash was released due to revocation of letters of guarantees from port authorities.

Net cash used in investing activities was $59.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to $181.8 million for the same period in 2013. During 2014, we paid $61.4 million mainly for the construction of our storage facility in Fujairah and $7.8 million for the acquisition of the vessel New Jersey . Furthermore, we received net cash consideration of $16.2 million for the sale of our tankers, Aegean Flower, Aegean X, Aegean XI, Aegean XII, PT36, Leader and Aegean Daisy .

Net Cash Used In/Provided by Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $28.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to $50.3 million provided by financing activities for the same period in 2014. This decrease was mainly due to our 4.00% Convertible Unsecured Senior Notes due 2018 and our new long term loan agreement that partly financed our working capital requirements. Furthermore, during the year ended December 31, 2015, we paid financing costs of $9.0 million, while we declared and paid dividends of $3.9 million to our shareholders.

Net cash used in financing activities was $50.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to $126.0 million provided by financing activities for the same period in 2013. This decrease was mainly due to repayment of short-term borrowings. Furthermore, during the year ended December 31, 2014, we paid financing costs of $3.3 million, while we declared and paid dividends of $0.3 million to non-controlling parties and of $2.4 million to our shareholders.

C.	Research and development, patents and licenses, etc.

Not applicable.

D.	Trend information.

During the year ended December 31, 2015, our sales volume of marine fuel increased by 19.0%, as compared to the prior year, which was mainly due to our expansion in new markets and the increase in sales volumes. Sales volumes are expected to increase further during 2016 in light of our presence in new markets such as South America and South Africa.

We plan to continue to expand our operations into new markets during 2016 and further diversify revenue and enhance flexibility.

In addition to our bunkering operations, we market and distribute marine lubricants under the Alfa Marine Lubricants brand. Starting in 2011, we have currently built up an extensive production and distributing network in major and minor worldwide ports for our brand. Within 2016, we expect to continue expanding our branded supply and we expect our sales volumes to increase, as we expand our market share.

Our success in attracting business has been due, in part, to our willingness to extend trade credit on an unsecured basis to our customers after suitable credit analysis of them. Adverse changes in world credit markets may adversely affect our ability to do business with customers whose creditworthiness may no longer meet our criteria. Volatility in the price of marine fuel and lubricants may also affect our working capital requirements.

E.	Off-balance sheet arrangements.

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

F.	Tabular disclosure of contractual obligations.

Fujairah in-land storage facility: In July 2010, Mr. Melisanidis, our founder and Head of Corporate Development, transferred to us, for no consideration, all of the shares of Aegean Oil Terminal Corporation, a company that possesses a 25-year terminal lease agreement with the Municipality of Fujairah. The lease agreement may be automatically renewed for an additional 25 years. We completed the construction of the new facility in the fourth quarter of 2014. We have paid $205.3 million, net of capitalized interest, for construction and other related costs during the construction period.

Legal Proceedings

In the ordinary course of business, we may be subject to legal proceedings and claims for damages or penalties relating to, among other things, personal injury, property casualty and environmental contamination. We expect that these claims will be covered by our insurance policies, subject to customary deductibles. While these claims (even if lacking merit), could result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources. In the opinion of management, our liability (if any) under any pending litigation or administrative proceedings (other than as set forth below), even if determined adversely, would not materially affect our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

In November 2005, an unrelated party filed a declaratory action against one of our subsidiaries before the First Instance Court of Piraeus, Greece. The plaintiff asserted that he was instrumental in the negotiation of our eight-year Fuel Purchase Agreement with a government refinery in Jamaica and sought a judicial affirmation of his alleged contractual right to receive a commission of $0.01 per metric ton of marine fuel over the term of the contract. In December 2008, the First Instance Court of Piraeus dismissed the plaintiff's action as vague and inadmissible, however we appealed that decision on the grounds that there was no contract between us and the plaintiff and that the court lacked jurisdiction. While the action was pending in Greece, the plaintiff commenced a new action involving the same cause of action before the Commercial Court of Paris, France, which dismissed that action in June 2009. The plaintiff's appeal of the dismissal was denied by the Paris Court of Appeal in February 2010. In January 2012, the plaintiff commenced a new action relating to the same allegations before the Commercial Court of Paris, which was dismissed on June 27, 2012 in favor of the competence and jurisdiction of the Greek courts. In July 2012, the plaintiff filed a "contredit," an appeal procedure under French law. In November 2013, the Court held that there is no matter pending in Greece that would allow the French courts to decline jurisdiction to the benefit of the Greek proceedings. As a result, the case is to return to the Commercial Court of Paris which should have to examine the admissibility of Mr. Varouxis' claim in France. The relevant pleadings were issued on December 18, 2015. According to its decision, the French Court held that Mr. Varouxis is entitled to partial compensation based on a half of his claim fee of $0.01 per metric ton sold but limited to the amount of $670 with respect to the years 2005 to 2008. The judgment is enforceable subject to the submission by Mr. Varouxis to AMP of a bank guarantee as counter-security covering the reimbursement to AMP of the said sum plus interest. Until now, Mr. Varouxis has been unable to submit a properly worded bank guarantee. In the meantime, both AMP and Mr. Varouxis have filed contrary appeals versus the decision issued. We are not in a position to comment further on this matter at this time.

On December 18, 2014, we and Aegean Bunkering (USA) LLC, or the Aegean Parties, filed a one-count complaint for breach of contract against Hess in New York Supreme Court, New York County (653887/2014), alleging that Hess breached certain express representations and warranties in representing its financial condition in an agreement pursuant to which Hess sold its bunker oil business to Aegean Bunkering (USA) LLC (the "Agreement"). In the complaint, the Aegean Parties sought approximately $28 million in compensatory damages, exclusive of interest and costs. On February 9, 2015, Hess filed an answer to the complaint. During the course of discovery, through co-counsel Boies Schiller & Flexner LLP, the Aegean Parties filed a motion for leave to amend the complaint on December 15, 2015. The proposed amended complaint added a claim for fraud and fraudulent inducement in connection with the Agreement, seeking approximately $127 million in compensatory damages, exclusive of interest and costs, and punitive damages in an amount to be determined at trial. On Hess's consent, the Aegean Parties' motion to amend the complaint was granted on January 15, 2016. On February 3, 2016, Hess filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint in part, specifically, the fraud and fraudulent inducement claim and portions of the contract claim. The Aegean Parties' responded to the motion to dismiss on March 4, 2016, and Hess submitted its reply on March 18, 2016. The parties are now awaiting a decision from the Court. We are not in a position to comment further on this matter at this time.

We have supplied bunkers through agreements with various entities of O.W. Bunker, which filed for bankruptcy in November 2014. We issued notice to O.W. Bunker for the request of payment for the value of the bunkers supplied. Our exposure for these supplies amounts to $5.5 million, of which we recorded $3.1 million as a provision for doubtful accounts in the statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2015. We believe that O.W. Bunker was never the rightful owner of the bunkers and we are currently trying to work out escrow or other practical solutions with the end users. For our main action before the Pireus Multi-Member Court of First Instance for the supply of m/v Champion Trade r and our claim for the relevant invoice value, the court issued its judgment and accepted our claim in full for the principal amount of $0.4 million plus interest as of December 1, 2014. We expect to recover the amount of at least $2.3 million.

One of our subsidiaries, Aegean Oil Terminal Corporation, has provided storage facilities through agreements to Alco Shipping Services LLC, Alco Fuel Trading LLC and House of Gas Trading DMCC. In breach of their obligations under the agreements, the debtors failed to deliver any products to the terminal and to pay the invoices in the principal sum of $1.3 million. Following various demands for payment and in the absence of payment we have terminated the agreement and commenced legal proceedings against the debtors in the High Court of London. After lodging with the court the relevant application, claim for and witness statement, we received a sealed order from the High Court in London giving us permission to service the Claim Form and Particulars of Claim out of the jurisdiction upon the debtors in UAE. The U.K. Foreign and Commonwealth Office has now returned the service process request with the documents unserved due to the fact that the debtors have moved offices or still pending. The debtors do not have a valid defense and once the claim form is served upon them, we expect to proceed to obtain a summary judgment from the High Court in London. As soon as a judgment is obtained, we expect to proceed to execute the same by way of arrest and sale of their assets.

Dividend Policy

Our policy is to pay regular cash dividends on a quarterly basis on shares of our common stock so long as we have sufficient capital or earnings to do so. While we cannot assure you that we will continue to do so in the future, and subject to, among other things, legal requirements, our ability to obtain financing on terms acceptable to us and our ability to satisfy financial covenants contained in our financing arrangements, we paid dividends of $0.02 per share in April 2016 with respect to the fourth quarter of 2015, $0.02 per share in December 2015 with respect to the third quarter of 2015, $0.02 per share in September 2015 with respect to the second quarter of 2015, and June 2015 for the first quarter of 2015. We paid dividends of $0.02 per share in March 2015 with respect to the fourth quarter of 2014, $0.02 per share in December 2014 with respect to the third quarter of 2014, and $0.01 per share in September and June of 2014 for the second and first quarters of 2014, respectively . We anticipate retaining most of our future earnings, if any, for use in our operations and the expansion of our business. Any further determination as to dividend policy will be made by our Board of Directors and will depend on a number of factors, including the requirements of Marshall Islands law, our future earnings, capital requirements, financial condition and future prospects and such other factors as our Board of Directors may deem relevant.

Marshall Islands law generally prohibits the payment of dividends other than from surplus, when a company is insolvent or if the payment of the dividend would render the company insolvent.

In addition, we may incur expenses or liabilities, including extraordinary expenses, which could include costs of claims and related litigation expenses, or be subject to other circumstances in the future that reduce or eliminate the amount of cash that we have available for distribution as dividends or for which our Board of Directors may determine requires the establishment of reserves. Our Board of Directors may determine to finance our growth with cash from operations, which would reduce or even eliminate the amount of cash available for the payment of dividends.

Our ability to pay dividends is also subject to our ability to satisfy financial covenants contained in our financing arrangements. See "Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—B. Liquidity and Capital Resources—Credit Facilities."

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Not applicable.

B.	Memorandum and Articles of Association.

Our amended and restated articles of incorporation have been filed as exhibit 3.1 to the Registration Statement on Form F-1 (Registration No. 333-129768) with the SEC on November 17, 2005. Our second amended and restated bylaws are filed as exhibit 1.3 to this annual report. The information contained in these exhibits is incorporated by reference herein.

Below is a summary of the description of our capital stock, including the rights, preferences and restrictions attaching to each class of stock. Because the following is a summary, it does not contain all information that you may find useful. For more complete information, you should read our amended and restated articles of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws, which are incorporated by reference herein.

Purpose

Our purpose, as stated in our amended and restated articles of incorporation, is to engage in any lawful act or activity for which corporations may now or hereafter be organized under the BCA. Our amended and restated articles of incorporation and second amended and restated bylaws do not impose any limitations on the ownership rights of our shareholders.

Authorized Capitalization

Under our amended and restated articles of incorporation, our authorized capital stock consists of 100,000,000 shares of common shares, par value $0.01 per share, of which 50,036,853 shares were issued and outstanding as of April 19, 2016 and 25,000,000 preferred shares, par value $0.01 per share, of which no shares are issued and outstanding.

Description of Common Shares

Each outstanding common share entitles the holder to one vote on all matters submitted to a vote of shareholders. Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any outstanding shares of preferred shares, holders of shares of common shares are entitled to receive ratably all dividends, if any, declared by our Board of Directors out of funds legally available for dividends. Upon our dissolution or liquidation or the sale of all or substantially all of our assets, after payment in full of all amounts required to be paid to creditors and to the holders of shares of our preferred shares having liquidation preferences, if any, the holders of our shares of common shares will be entitled to receive pro rata our remaining assets available for distribution. Holders of our shares of common shares do not have conversion, redemption or preemptive rights to subscribe to any of our securities. The rights, preferences and privileges of holders of shares of common shares are subject to the rights of the holders of any preferred shares that we may issue in the future.

Description of Preferred Shares

Our amended and restated articles of incorporation authorize our Board of Directors to establish one or more series of preferred shares and to determine, with respect to any series of preferred shares, the terms and rights of that series, including the designation of the series, the number of shares of the series, the preferences and relative, participating, option or other special rights, if any, and any qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such series, and the voting rights, if any, of the holders of the series.

We have designated 100,000 preferred shares as Series A Participating Preferred Stock in connection with the adoption of our Stockholders Rights Agreement. See "—Stockholders Rights Agreement" below.

Directors

Our directors are elected by a majority of the votes cast by shareholders entitled to vote. There is no provision for cumulative voting.

Our Board of Directors must consist of at least three members. Shareholders may change the number of directors only by amending the bylaws, which requires the affirmative vote of holders of 70% or more of the outstanding shares of capital stock entitled to vote. The Board of Directors may change the number of directors only by a vote of not less than 66 2/3% of the entire Board of Directors. At each annual meeting of shareholders, directors to replace those directors whose terms expire at such annual meeting shall be elected to hold office until the third succeeding annual meeting of shareholders. Each director shall serve his respective term of office until his successor shall have been duly elected and qualified, except in the event of his death, resignation, removal, or the earlier termination of his term of office. Our Board of Directors has the authority to fix the amounts that shall be payable to the members of the Board of Directors for attendance at any meeting or for services rendered to us.

Interested Transactions

Our second amended and restated bylaws provide that a contract or transaction between us and one or more of our directors or officers, or between us and any other corporation, partnership, association or other organization in which one or more of its directors or officers are our directors or officers, or have a financial interest, will not be void or voidable, if (i) the material facts as to the relationship or interest and as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to our Board of Directors or its committee and the Board of Directors or the committee in good faith authorizes the contract or transaction by the affirmative vote of a majority of disinterested directors, or, if the votes of the disinterested directors are insufficient to constitute an act of the Board of Directors as provided in the BCA, by unanimous vote of the disinterested directors; or (ii) the material facts as to the relationship or interest are disclosed to the shareholders, and the contract or transaction is specifically approved in good faith by the vote of the shareholders; or (iii) the contract or transaction is fair to us as of the time it is authorized, approved or ratified, by the Board of Directors, its committee or the shareholders.

Shareholder Meetings

Under our second amended and restated bylaws, annual shareholder meetings will be held at a time and place selected by our Board of Directors. The meetings may be held in or outside of the Marshall Islands. Special shareholder meetings may be called at any time by our Board of Directors, the chairman of the board, or the president. No business may be conducted at the special meeting other than the business brought before the special meeting by our Board of Directors, the chairman of the board, or the president. Our Board of Directors may set a record date between 15 and 60 days before the date of any meeting to determine the shareholders that will be eligible to receive notice and vote at the meeting. One or more shareholders representing at least one-third of the total voting rights of our total issued and outstanding shares present in person or by proxy at a shareholder meeting shall constitute a quorum for the purposes of the meeting.

Dissenters' Rights of Appraisal and Payment

Under the BCA, our shareholders have the right to dissent from various corporate actions, and receive payment of the fair market value of their shares. In the event of any further amendment of our amended and restated articles of incorporation, a shareholder also has the right to dissent and receive payment for his or her shares if the amendment alters certain rights in respect of those shares. The dissenting shareholder must follow the procedures set forth in the BCA to receive payment. In the event that we and any dissenting shareholder fail to agree on a price for the shares, the BCA procedures involve, among other things, the institution of proceedings in the high court of the Republic of the Marshall Islands or in any appropriate court in any jurisdiction in which our shares are primarily traded on a local or national securities exchange.

Shareholders' Derivative Actions

Under the BCA, any of our shareholders may bring an action in our name to procure a judgment in our favor, also known as a derivative action, provided that the shareholder bringing the action is a holder of our common shares both at the time the derivative action is commenced and at the time of the transaction to which the action relates.

Limitations on Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors

The BCA authorizes corporations to limit or eliminate the personal liability of officers and directors to corporations and their shareholders for monetary damages for breaches of directors' fiduciary duties. Our amended and restated articles of incorporation include a provision that eliminates the personal liability of directors for monetary damages for actions taken as a director to the fullest extent permitted by law.

Our amended and restated articles of incorporation and second amended and restated bylaws provide that we must indemnify our officers and directors to the fullest extent authorized by law if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. We are also expressly authorized to advance certain expenses (including attorneys' fees and disbursements and court costs) to our directors and officers and carry directors' and officers' insurance policies providing indemnification for our directors, officers and certain employees for some liabilities. We believe that these indemnification provisions and insurance are useful to attract and retain qualified directors and executive officers.

The limitation of liability and indemnification provisions in our amended and restated articles of incorporation and second amended and restated bylaws may discourage shareholders from bringing a lawsuit against directors for breach of their fiduciary duty. These provisions may also have the effect of reducing the likelihood of derivative litigation against directors and officers, even though such an action, if successful, might otherwise benefit us and our shareholders. In addition, your investment may be adversely affected to the extent we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors and officers pursuant to these indemnification provisions.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

There is currently no pending material litigation or proceeding involving any of our directors, officers or employees for which indemnification is sought.

Anti-Takeover Effect of Certain Provisions of our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws

Several provisions of our amended and restated articles of incorporation and second amended and restated bylaws, which are summarized below, may have anti-takeover effects. These provisions are intended to avoid costly takeover battles, lessen our vulnerability to a hostile change of control and enhance the ability of our Board of Directors to maximize shareholder value in connection with any unsolicited offer to acquire us. However, these anti-takeover provisions, which are summarized below, could also discourage, delay or prevent (1) the merger or acquisition of our Company by means of a tender offer, a proxy contest or otherwise that a shareholder may consider in its best interest and (2) the removal of incumbent officers and directors.

Classified Board of Directors

Our amended and restated articles of incorporation provide for the division of our Board of Directors into three classes of directors, with each class as nearly equal in number as possible, serving staggered, three year terms. Approximately one-third of our Board of Directors will be elected each year. This classified board provision could discourage a third party from making a tender offer for our common shares or attempting to obtain control of us. It could also delay shareholders who do not agree with the policies of our Board of Directors from removing a majority of our Board of Directors for two years.

Blank Check Preferred Stock

Under the terms of our amended and restated articles of incorporation, our Board of Directors has authority, without any further vote or action by our shareholders, to issue up to 25 million shares of blank check preferred shares. Our Board of Directors may issue preferred shares on terms calculated to discourage, delay or prevent a change of control of us or the removal of our management.

Election and Removal of Directors

Our amended and restated articles of incorporation prohibit cumulative voting in the election of directors. Our amended and restated articles of incorporation and second amended and restated bylaws require parties other than the Board of Directors to give advance written notice of nominations for the election of directors. Our amended and restated articles of incorporation and second amended and restated bylaws also provide that our directors may be removed only for cause and only upon the affirmative vote of the holders of 70% or more of the outstanding shares of our capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors. These provisions may discourage, delay or prevent the removal of incumbent officers and directors.

Business Combinations

Although the BCA does not contain specific provisions regarding "business combinations" between corporations organized under the laws of the Republic of Marshall Islands and "interested shareholders," we have included these provisions in our amended and restated articles of incorporation. Our amended and restated articles of incorporation contain provisions which prohibit us from engaging in a business combination with an interested shareholder for a period of three years after the date of the transaction in which the person became an interested shareholder, unless:

prior to the date of the transaction that resulted in the shareholder becoming an interested shareholder, our Board of Directors approved either the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the shareholder becoming an interested shareholder;

upon consummation of the transaction that resulted in the shareholder becoming an interested shareholder, the interested shareholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding for purposes of determining the number of shares outstanding those shares owned (i) by persons who are directors and also officers and (ii) employee stock plans in which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer;

at or subsequent to the date of the transaction that resulted in the shareholder becoming an interested shareholder, the business combination is approved by the Board of Directors and authorized at an annual or special meeting of shareholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of at least 70% of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested shareholder; or

the shareholder became an interested shareholder prior to the consummation of the initial public offering of our common shares under the Securities Act.

For purposes of these provisions, a "business combination" includes mergers, consolidations, exchanges, asset sales, leases and other transactions resulting in a financial benefit to the interested shareholder and an "interested shareholder" is any person or entity that beneficially owns 20% or more of the shares of our outstanding voting stock and any person or entity affiliated with or controlling or controlled by that person or entity.

Limited Actions by Shareholders

Our second amended and restated bylaws provide that any action required or permitted to be taken by our shareholders must be effected at an annual or special meeting of shareholders or by the unanimous written consent of our shareholders. Our second amended and restated bylaws also provide that our Board of Directors, the chairman of the board, or the president may call special meetings of our shareholders and the business transacted at the special meeting is limited to business brought before the special meeting by our Board of Directors, Chairman or President. Accordingly, shareholders are prevented from calling a special meeting for shareholder consideration of a proposal over the opposition of our Board of Directors and shareholder consideration of a proposal may be delayed until the next annual meeting.

Supermajority Provisions

The BCA generally provides that the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote at a meeting of shareholders is required to amend a corporation's articles of incorporation, unless the articles of incorporation requires a greater percentage. Our amended and restated articles of incorporation provide that the following provisions in the articles may be amended only by an affirmative vote of 70% or more of the outstanding shares of our capital stock entitled to vote:

the Board of Directors shall be divided into three classes;

directors may only be removed for cause and by an affirmative vote of the holders of 70% or more of the outstanding shares of our capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors;

the shareholders are authorized to alter, amend or repeal our bylaws by an affirmative vote of 70% or more of the outstanding shares of our capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors;

the Company may not engage in any business combination with any interested shareholder for a period of three years following the transaction in which the person became an interested shareholder; and

the Company shall indemnify directors and officers to the full extent permitted by law, and the company shall advance certain expenses (including attorneys' fees and disbursements and court costs) to the directors and officers.

Advance Notice Requirements for Shareholders Proposals and Director Nominations

Our amended and restated articles of incorporation and second amended and restated bylaws provide that shareholders seeking to nominate candidates for election as directors or to bring business before an annual meeting of shareholders must provide timely notice of their proposal in writing to the corporate secretary. Generally, to be timely, a shareholder's notice must be received at our principal executive offices not less than 120 days nor more than 180 days prior to the one year anniversary of the immediately preceding year's annual meeting of shareholders. Our amended and restated articles of incorporation and second amended and restated bylaws also specify requirements as to the form and content of a shareholder's notice. These provisions may impede a shareholder's ability to bring matters before an annual meeting of shareholders or make nominations for directors at an annual meeting of shareholders.

Stockholders Rights Agreement

We entered into a Stockholders Rights Agreement, or the Agreement, with Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as Rights Agent, as of August 14, 2009. Under the Agreement, we declared a dividend payable of one preferred stock purchase right, or Right, for each outstanding share of our common stock, to our stockholders of record at the close of business on August 14, 2009. Each Right entitles the registered holder to purchase from us a unit consisting of one one-thousandth of a share of our Series A Participating Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share. The Rights will separate from the common stock and become exercisable after the earlier of (1) the 10th day (or such later date as determined by our Board of Directors) after public announcement that a person or group acquires ownership of 15% or more of shares of our common stock or (2) the 10th business day (or such later date as determined by our Board of Directors) after a person or group announces a tender or exchange offer, which would result in that person or group holding 15% or more of shares of our common stock. On the distribution date, each holder of a Right will be entitled to purchase for $100, or the Exercise Price, a fraction (1/1000th) of one share of our Series A Participating Preferred Stock, which has similar economic terms as one share of our common stock.

If an acquiring person, or an Acquiring Person, acquires more than 15% of the shares of our common stock, then each holder of a Right (except that Acquiring Person) will be entitled to buy at the Exercise Price, a number of shares of our common stock which has a market value of twice the Exercise Price. Any time after the date an Acquiring Person obtains more than 15% of shares of our common stock and before that Acquiring Person acquires more than 50% of outstanding shares of our common stock, we may exchange each Right owned by all other Rights holders, in whole or in part, for one share of our common stock. The Rights expire on the earliest of (i) August 14, 2019 or (ii) the redemption of the Rights by us or (iii) the exchange of the Rights as described above. We can redeem the Rights at any time on or prior to the earlier of the tenth business day following the public announcement that a person has acquired ownership of 15% or more of shares of our common stock, or August 14, 2019. The terms of the Rights and the Agreement may be amended to make changes that do not adversely affect the rights of the Rights holders (other than the Acquiring Person). The Rights do not have any voting rights. The Rights have the benefit of certain customary anti-dilution protections.

C.	Material contracts.

We refer you to "Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—B. Liquidity and Capital Resources—Credit Facilities," "Item 7. Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions—B. Related Party Transactions" and "Item 10. Additional Information—B. Memorandum and Articles of Association" for a discussion of our material agreements that we have entered into outside the ordinary course of our business during the two-year period immediately preceding the date of this annual report.

Other than as set forth above, there were no material contracts, other than contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business, to which we were a party during the two year period immediately preceding the date of this annual report.

D.	Exchange controls.

Under Marshall Islands, Greek law and the law of jurisdictions where our service centers and marketing offices are located, there are currently no restrictions on the export or import of capital, including foreign exchange controls or restrictions that materially affect the remittance of dividends, interest or other payments to non-resident holders of our common stock.

Taxation.

The following is a discussion of the material Greek, Marshall Islands, Liberian, Belgium, Canadian, German and U.S. federal income tax consequences to our Company and to a "U.S. Holder" and a "Non-U.S. Holder," as each term is defined below. This discussion does not purport to deal with the tax consequences of owning common stock to all categories of investors, some of which, such as dealers in securities, investors whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar and investors that own, actually or under applicable constructive ownership rules, 10% or more of our common stock, may be subject to special rules. This discussion deals only with shareholders who own the common stock as a capital asset. Moreover, this discussion is based upon laws, regulations and other authorities in effect as of the date hereof, all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect. You are encouraged to consult your own tax advisors concerning the overall tax consequences arising in your own particular situation under U.S. federal, state, local and foreign law of the ownership of shares of our common stock.

Greek Tax Considerations

AMP has established an office in Greece which provides services to AMP and AMP's office in Cyprus. Under the laws of Greece, and in particular under Greek Law 3427/2005, the income of AMP's Greek office is calculated on a cost plus basis on expenses incurred by that office. This determination is subject to periodic review every five years. The profit margin set by the Greek Ministry of Economy and Finance for the period 2011 to 2015 is 5.42%. With respect to the period of 2016 to 2020, we have submitted the relevant feasibility study to the Greek Ministry of Economy and Finance which provides for a profit margin of 5%. The relevant study is pending for approval and once confirmed it will apply retroactively from January 1, 2016. AMP's income, as calculated by applying the applicable profit margin, is subject to Greek corporate income tax at the rate of 29%, 26%, and 26%, respectively, for the fiscal years 2015, 2014 and 2013. All expenses to which the profit margin applies are deducted from gross income for Greek corporate income tax purposes. Accordingly, under Greek Law 3427/2005, as currently applied to us, we expect that AMP will continue to have no liability for any material amount of Greek income tax.

Additionally, according to new tax legislation ratified on January 11, 2013, all vessels with a non-Greek flag, which are managed by Greek or foreign ship management companies established in Greece, bear tonnage tax on the basis of the gross tonnage and age of the vessel. Our vessels did not incur material tax liabilities as a result of this new legislation.

Marshall Islands Tax Considerations

In the opinion of Seward & Kissel LLP, our Marshall Islands counsel, the following are the material Marshall Islands tax consequences to us of our activities and to our shareholders of the ownership of our common stock. We are incorporated in the Marshall Islands. Under current Marshall Islands law, we are not subject to tax on income or capital gains, and no Marshall Islands withholding tax or income tax will be imposed upon payments of dividends by us to our shareholders or proceeds from the disposition of our common stock, provided such shareholders are not residents of the Marshall Islands. There is no income tax treaty between the United States and the Republic of the Marshall Islands.

Liberian Tax Considerations

Under the Consolidated Tax Amendments Act of 2010, nonresident Liberian corporations are wholly exempted from Liberia taxation effective as of 1977. Therefore, our Liberian subsidiaries will be wholly exempt from Liberian income taxation.

Belgium Tax Considerations

Our operations in Belgium, through our subsidiaries Aegean Bunkers at Sea NV, or ABAS, and ANWE, are subject to Belgium income taxation. For the year ended December 31, 2015, our operations in Belgium were taxed at a rate of 33.99%. Please see Note 25 to our consolidated financial statements included herein for further discussion on our tax liability in Belgium.

Canada Tax Considerations

Our operations in Canada, through our subsidiary ICS Petroleum, are subject to Canada income taxation. For the year ended December 31, 2015, our operations in Montreal were taxed at a rate of 26.9% and our operations in Vancouver were taxed at a rate of 26.0%. Please see Note 25 to our consolidated financial statements included herein for further discussion on our tax liability in Canada.

U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations

In the opinion of Seward & Kissel LLP, our U.S. counsel, the following are the material U.S. federal income tax consequences to us of our activities and to U.S. Holders and Non-U.S. Holders, as defined below, of investing in our common stock. The following discussion of U.S. federal income tax matters is based on the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, judicial decisions, administrative pronouncements, and existing and proposed regulations issued by the U.S. Department of the Treasury, or the Treasury Regulations, all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect. References in the following discussion to "we" and "us" are to Aegean Marine Petroleum Network Inc. and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.

U.S. Federal Income Taxation of Our Company

We conduct business in the United States through certain subsidiaries. These subsidiaries will generally be subject to U.S. federal income tax at a rate of 35% as well as U.S. state and local income tax in the jurisdictions in which they operate. Dividends paid by our U.S. subsidiaries are generally subject to U.S. federal withholding tax at a rate of 30%.

A foreign corporation is subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net basis only if it is engaged in a trade or business in the United States. A foreign corporation which is engaged in a trade or business in the United States will be subject to U.S. federal income tax and branch profits tax at a combined rate of up to 54.5% on its income which is effectively connected with its U.S. trade or business, or Effectively Connected Income.

Income from the sale of inventory property outside of the United States by a foreign corporation will be treated as Effectively Connected Income if the corporation has a fixed place of business in the United States to which such income is attributable, unless (1) the property is sold for use, consumption or disposition outside of the United States, and (2) the foreign corporation has a fixed place of business in a foreign country which materially participates in the sale.

While we or certain of our foreign subsidiaries may have a place of business in the United States, we believe that none of their income from the sale of inventory property would be treated as Effectively Connected Income under the rules discussed above. Specifically, we anticipate that (1) all of our sales of petroleum products will occur outside the United States; (2) such products will be sold for use, consumption or disposition outside the United States, and (3) one of our foreign offices will materially participate in such sales. Therefore, we anticipate that none of our income from the sale of inventory property will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net basis.

If any portion of our income is treated as Effectively Connected Income, then such income will be subject to U.S. federal income tax and branch profits tax at a combined rate of up to 54.5%.

U.S. Federal Income Taxation of U.S. Holders

As used herein, the term "U.S. Holder" means a beneficial owner of our common stock that is a U.S. citizen or resident, U.S. corporation or other U.S. entity taxable as a corporation, an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source, or a trust if a court within the U.S. is able to exercise primary jurisdiction over the administration of the trust and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust.

If a partnership holds our common stock, the tax treatment of a partner will generally depend upon the status of the partner and upon the activities of the partnership. If you are a partner in a partnership holding our common stock, you are encouraged to consult your tax advisor.

Distributions

Subject to the discussion below under the heading "Passive Foreign Investment Company," any distributions made by us with respect to our common stock to a U.S. Holder will generally constitute dividends, which may be taxable as ordinary income or "qualified dividend income" as described in more detail below, to the extent of our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. Distributions in excess of our earnings and profits will be treated first as a nontaxable return of capital to the extent of the U.S. Holder's tax basis in our common stock on a dollar-for-dollar basis, and thereafter as capital gain. Because we are not a U.S. corporation, U.S. Holders that are corporations will not be entitled to claim a dividends received deduction with respect to any distributions they receive from us. Dividends paid with respect to our common stock will generally be treated as "passive category income" or, in the case of certain types of U.S. Holders, "general category income" for purposes of computing allowable foreign tax credits for U.S. foreign tax credit purposes.

Dividends paid on our common stock to a U.S. Holder who is an individual, trust or estate, or a U.S. Individual Holder, will generally be treated as "qualified dividend income" that is taxable to such U.S. Individual Holder at preferential tax rates provided that: (1) the common stock is readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States (such as the NYSE on which our common stock is traded); (2) we are not a "passive foreign investment company" for the taxable year during which the dividend is paid or the immediately preceding taxable year (which we do not believe we are, have been or will be); (3) the U.S. Individual Holder has owned the common stock for more than 60 days in the 121-day period beginning 60 days before the date on which the common stock becomes ex-dividend; and (4) the U.S. Individual Holder is not under an obligation to make related payments with respect to positions in substantially similar or related property. There is no assurance that any dividends paid on our common stock will be eligible for these preferential rates in the hands of a U.S. Individual Holder. Any dividends paid by us that are not eligible for these preferential rates (including dividends paid to U.S. Holders other than U.S. Individual Holders) will be taxed as ordinary income.

Special rules may apply to any "extraordinary dividend," generally a dividend in an amount which is equal to or in excess of ten percent of a shareholder's adjusted tax basis (or fair market value in certain circumstances) in its common stock. If we pay an "extraordinary dividend" on our common stock that is treated as "qualified dividend income," then any loss derived by a U.S. Individual Holder from the sale or exchange of such common stock will be treated as long-term capital loss to the extent of such dividend.

Sale, Exchange or Other Disposition of Common Stock

A U.S. Holder generally will recognize taxable gain or loss upon a sale, exchange or other disposition of our common stock in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized by the U.S. Holder from such sale, exchange or other disposition and the U.S. Holder's tax basis in such common stock. Subject to the discussion under the heading "Passive Foreign Investment Company" below, such gain or loss will be treated as long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder's holding period of the common stock is greater than one year at the time of the sale, exchange or other disposition; otherwise it will be treated as short-term capital gain or loss. Long-term capital gains of a U.S. Individual Holder are taxable at preferential tax rates under current law. Such capital gain or loss will generally be treated as U.S. source income or loss, as applicable, for U.S. foreign tax credit purposes. A U.S. Holder's ability to deduct capital losses is subject to certain limitations.

3.8% Tax on Net Investment Income

For taxable years beginning after December 31, 2012, a U.S. Holder that is an individual, estate, or, in certain cases, a trust, will generally be subject to a 3.8% tax on the lesser of (1) the U.S. Holder's net investment income for the taxable year and (2) the excess of the U.S. Holder's modified adjusted gross income for the taxable year over a certain threshold (which in the case of individuals is between $125,000 and $250,000). A U.S. Holder's net investment income will generally include distributions made by us which constitute a dividend for U.S. federal income tax purposes and gain realized from the sale, exchange or other disposition of our common stock. This tax is in addition to any income taxes due on such investment income.

If you are a U.S. Holder that is an individual, estate or trust, you are encouraged to consult your tax advisors regarding the applicability of the 3.8% tax on net investment income to the ownership and disposition of our common stock.

Passive Foreign Investment Company

A foreign corporation will be treated as a "passive foreign investment company," or a PFIC, for U.S. federal income tax purposes if 75% or more of its gross income consists of certain types of "passive income" or 50% or more of its assets produce or are held for the production of such "passive income." If a corporation owns at least 25% (by value) of the shares of another corporation, it is treated for purposes of these tests as owning a proportionate share of the assets of the other corporation and as receiving directly a proportionate share of the other corporation's income. "Passive income," for this purpose, generally includes dividends, interest, royalties, rents and gains from commodities and securities transactions. We presently believe that we are not a PFIC and do not anticipate becoming a PFIC. This is, however, a factual determination made on an annual basis based on our activities, income and assets, among other factors, and is subject to change.

If we are classified as a PFIC, a U.S. Holder of our common stock could be subject to increased U.S. federal income tax liability upon the sale or other disposition of our common stock or upon the receipt of amounts treated as "excess distributions." Under these rules, the excess distribution and any gain upon a sale of our common stock would be allocated ratably over the U.S. Holder's holding period for the common stock, and the amount allocated to the current taxable year and any taxable year prior to the first taxable year in which we were a PFIC would be taxed as ordinary income in the current taxable year. The amounts allocated to each of the other taxable years would be subject to tax at the highest marginal rates on ordinary income in effect for the applicable class of taxpayer for that year, and an interest charge for the deemed tax deferral benefit would be imposed on the resulting tax liability as if such tax liability had been due with respect to each such other taxable year. In addition, shareholders of a PFIC may not receive a "step-up" in tax basis on common stock acquired from a decedent. In addition, a U.S. Holder would be required to file annual information returns with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, or the IRS, if we were to be classified as a PFIC. U.S. Holders should consult with their own U.S. tax advisors with respect to the U.S. tax consequences of investing in our common stock as well as the specific application of the "excess distribution" rule and other rules discussed in this paragraph.

The effect of the PFIC rules on a U.S. Holder may be mitigated if a U.S. Holder makes a valid and timely "mark-to-market" election or "qualified electing fund" election. We will notify U.S. Holders in the event we conclude that we will be treated as a PFIC for any taxable year. U.S. Holders are encouraged to consult their tax advisors regarding the application of the PFIC rules, including eligibility for, and the manner and advisability of, making certain elections with respect to our common stock in the case that we are determined to be a PFIC.

U.S. Federal Income Taxation of Non-U.S. Holders

A beneficial owner of common stock that is not a U.S. Holder (other than a partnership) is referred to herein as a "Non-U.S. Holder."

Dividends on Common Stock

Non-U.S. Holders generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax or withholding tax on dividends received from us with respect to our common stock, unless such dividend is effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder's conduct of a trade or business in the United States. If the Non-U.S. Holder is entitled to the benefits of a U.S. income tax treaty with respect to those dividends, that income is subject to U.S. federal income tax only if it is attributable to a permanent establishment maintained by the Non-U.S. Holder in the United States.

Sale, Exchange or Other Disposition of Common Stock

Non-U.S. Holders generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax or withholding tax on any gain realized upon the sale, exchange or other disposition of our common stock, unless:

the Non-U.S. Holder is an individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more during the taxable year of disposition and other conditions are met; or

the gain is effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder's conduct of a trade or business in the United States. If the Non-U.S. Holder is entitled to the benefits of a U.S. income tax treaty with respect to that gain, that gain is subject to U.S. federal income tax only if it is attributable to a permanent establishment maintained by the Non-U.S. Holder in the United States.

If a Non-U.S. Holder is engaged in a U.S. trade or business for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the income from the common stock, including dividends and the gain from the sale, exchange or other disposition of the common stock that is effectively connected with the conduct of that U.S. trade or business will generally be subject to U.S. federal income tax in the same manner as discussed in the previous section relating to the taxation of U.S. Holders. In addition, earnings and profits of a corporate Non-U.S. Holder that are attributable to such effectively connected income, subject to certain adjustments, may be subject to an additional U.S. federal branch profits tax at a rate of 30%, or at a lower rate as may be specified by an applicable U.S. income tax treaty.

Information Reporting

Individuals who are U.S. Holders (and to the extent specified in the applicable Treasury Regulations, certain individuals who are non-U.S. Holders and certain U.S. entities) who hold "specified foreign financial assets" (as defined in section 6038D of the Code and the applicable Treasury Regulations) are required to file IRS Form 8938 (Statement of Specified Foreign Financial Assets) with information relating to each such asset for each taxable year in which the aggregate value of all such assets exceeds $75,000 at any time during the taxable year or $50,000 on the last day of the taxable year. Specified foreign financial assets would include, among other assets, our common stock, unless the common stock were held through an account maintained with a U.S. financial institution. Substantial penalties apply to any failure to timely file IRS Form 8938, unless the failure is shown to be due to reasonable cause and not due to willful neglect. Additionally, the statute of limitations on the assessment and collection of U.S. federal income tax with respect to a taxable year for which the filing of IRS Form 8938 is required may not close until three years after the date on which IRS Form 8938 is filed. U.S. Holders (including U.S. entities) and Non-U.S. Holders are encouraged to consult their own tax advisors regarding their reporting obligations under section 6038D of the Code.

Other Taxes

In addition to the tax consequences discussed above, we may be subject to tax in one or more other jurisdictions where we conduct activities. Although we currently do not pay a material amount of tax in any jurisdiction in which we operate, there can be no assurance that this will not change.

ITEM 11.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Price Risk

Our price risk has been minimal because we have generally purchased inventory for which we have already had a binding sales contract in place. We generally do not fix future prices for delivery of fuel in excess of one week and our suppliers generally use average PLATTS pricing in their calculation of cost prices to us. Accordingly, our exposure to price risk has covered a period of only a few days. For the year ended December 31, 2015, we imported and stored cargos of marine fuel prior to resale to our customers. Accordingly, in some regions, we purchased fuel before entering into a binding sales contract with a customer. We believe that our exposure to price risk in these locations covers a period of one to two weeks. From time to time, we take positions in fuel pricing contracts. Our policy is to not use fuel related derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. Generally, fuel pricing contracts may be used to hedge exposure to changes in the net cost of marine fuel purchases. Upon settlement, if the contracted net price of marine fuel purchased is less than the settlement price, the seller of the fuel pricing contract is required to pay the buyer an amount equal to the difference between the contracted price and the settlement price. Conversely, if the contracted price is greater than the settlement price, the buyer is required to pay the seller the settlement sum. If we take positions in fuel pricing contracts or other derivative instruments, we could suffer losses in the settling or termination of these agreements. This could adversely affect our results of operation and cash flow.

During the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, we entered into fuel pricing contracts for 14,553,635 and 7,784,141 metric tons, respectively. These derivatives are intended to serve as an approximate hedge for the net cost of fuel purchases. Our fuel pricing contracts do not qualify as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes and therefore gains or losses are recognized in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. Fuel pricing contracts are settled on a monthly basis using quoted market prices of the underlying commodity. The fair value of these instruments as of December 31, 2015 was an asset of $22.4 million. The fair value of these instruments as of December 31, 2014 was an asset of $18.9 million. During the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, we recognized a gain of $45.8 million and a gain of $50.5 million, respectively. In the future, we may enter into long-term fixed price sales commitments, which fix the prices of future fuel sales. Furthermore, we may use cargo storage in our other service centers or we might import larger cargos of fuel for storage, which would increase our oil price risk. Furthermore, in the future, we might execute cargo trading transactions to arbitrage the price of marine fuel, which method would increase our oil price risk. Finally, we may enter into derivative contracts in the forms of swaps or futures in order to mitigate the risk of market price fluctuations in marine fuel. Please refer to Note 16 to our consolidated financial statements included at the end of this annual report which provides additional information on our derivatives as of December 31, 2015 and 2014.

Interest Rate Risk

We are subject to market risks relating to changes in interest rates as we have significant amounts of floating rate long-term debt and short-term borrowings outstanding. During the year ended December 31, 2015, we paid interest on this debt mainly based on LIBOR plus an average spread of 2.4% on our bank loans. A one percent increase in LIBOR would have increased our interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2015 from $22.4 million to $27.3 million. We expect to repay our borrowings on a periodic basis using cash flows from operations.

We enter into interest rate swap agreements from time to time in order to economically hedge our exposure to variability in our floating rate long-term debt. As of December 31, 2015, we had one interest rate swap agreement in place. The total notional principal amount of this swap as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 was $4.2 million and $5.2 million, respectively. This swap has specified rates and duration. Please refer to the table in Note 16 of our consolidated financial statements included at the end of this annual report for a summary of the terms of this interest rate.

Under our interest rate swap transactions, the bank makes quarterly floating-rate payments to us for the relevant amount based on the floating interest rate and we make quarterly payments to the bank on the relevant amount at the respective fixed rates.

Our interest rate swap does not meet hedge accounting criteria under accounting guidance relating to hedge accounting. Although we are exposed to credit-related losses in the event of non-performance in connection with such swap agreement, because the counterparty is rated A or better at the time of the transaction, we consider the risk of loss due to its nonperformance to be minimal. Through this swap transaction, we effectively hedged the interest rate exposure of our 2010 Newbuilding Secured Loan Facility, of which $4.2 million was outstanding as of December 31, 2015.

Exchange Rate Risk

We have conducted the vast majority of our business transactions in U.S. dollars. We have purchased marine petroleum products in the international oil and gas markets and our vessels have operated in international shipping markets; both these international markets transact business primarily in U.S. dollars. Accordingly, our total revenues have been fully denominated in U.S. dollars and our cost of marine petroleum products, which, for the year ended December 31, 2015, comprised approximately 93% of our total operating expenses, have been denominated in U.S. dollars. Our balance sheet is mainly comprised of dollar-denominated assets including trade receivables, inventories and the cost of vessels, and liabilities including trade payables, short-term borrowings and long-term loans. Our foreign exchange losses in recent periods have mainly arisen from the translation of assets and liabilities of our service centers that are denominated in local currency. Accordingly, the impact of foreign exchange fluctuations on our consolidated statements of income has been minimal.

MATERIAL MODIFICATIONS TO THE RIGHTS OF SECURITY HOLDERS AND USE OF PROCEEDS

Material Modifications to the Rights of Security Holders

We have adopted a stockholders' rights agreement, pursuant to which each share of our common stock includes one preferred stock purchase right that entitles the holder to purchase from us a unit consisting of one-thousandth of a share of our Series A Participating Preferred Stock if any third-party seeks to acquire control of a substantial block of our common stock without the approval of our Board of Directors. See "Item 10. Additional Information—B. Memorandum and Articles of Association—Stockholders Rights Agreement" included in this annual report for a description of our stockholders rights agreement.

ITEM 15.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Disclosure controls and procedures.

Our President and Principal Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2015. Based on that evaluation, our President and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.

(b) Management's annual report on internal control over financial reporting.

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act and for the assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting.

Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our President and Principal Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and effected by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

●

Pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;

●

Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and

●

Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management conducted the evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting using the control criteria framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) published in its report entitled Internal Control-Integrated 2013 Framework.

Management, with the participation of our President and Principal Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, assessed the effectiveness of the design and operation of our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act as of December 31, 2015. B ased upon that evaluation, our President and Principal Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting were effective as of December 31, 2015.

The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, as of December 31, 2015 has been audited by Deloitte Hadjipavlou Sofianos & Cambanis S.A, an independent registered public accounting firm. Their audit report on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting is presented in "Item 18. Financial Statements."

The registered public accounting firm that audited the consolidated financial statements, Deloitte Hadjipavlou Sofianos & Cambanis S.A., has issued an attestation report on our internal control over financial reporting, appearing on page F- 3 of the consolidated financial statements filed as a part of this annual report.

(d) Changes in internal control over financial reporting.

Management, with the participation of our President and Principal Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, assessed the effectiveness of the design and operation of our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act as of December 31, 2014. Based upon that evaluation, our management concluded that as of December 31, 2014, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective due to the material weaknesses noted below:

a) Our controls over the preparation and review of bank reconciliations did not operate effectively and, as a result, we failed to identify an overstatement of cash and cash equivalents and short-term borrowings caused by a transfer payment within the Company that could not be processed by the bank.

The impact of the classification error on our consolidated balance sheet and statement of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2014 included in our earnings release for the three months and year ended December 31, 2014 was (i) an overstatement of cash and cash equivalents of $13.5 million, (ii) an overstatement of short term borrowings of $13.5 million and (iii) an understatement of net cash used in financing activities of $13.5 million.

b) There was an absence of an effectively-designed control to identify and disclose transactions with new related parties.

The impact of the above design deficiency on the consolidated balance sheet and statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2014 was (i) an overstatement of revenues–third-parties of $9.9 million, (ii) an understatement of revenues–related companies of $9.9 million, (iii) an overstatement of trade receivables of $0.4 million and (iv) an understatement of amounts due from related parties of $0.4 million.

The classification errors discussed above were identified subsequent to the issuance of our earnings release for the three months and year ended December 31, 2014. The classification errors were corrected in the audited consolidated balance sheet, statement of income and statement of cash flows for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014.

The following changes were made to our internal control over financial reporting during the year ended December 31, 2015 to remediate the material weaknesses, as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2014:

a) We enhanced our controls over the preparation and review of bank and short-term borrowing reconciliations.

b) We designed a new control over the identification and disclosure of transactions with new related parties.

The abovementioned controls were operational since the second and third quarter, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2015 and management concluded that the controls are operating effectively.

ITEM 16A.

AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL EXPERT

In accordance with the rules of the NYSE, the exchange on which our common stock is listed, we have appointed an audit committee whose members as of December 31, 2015 are Messrs. Konomos, Papanicolaou and Koutsomitopoulos, and Mr. Konomos has been determined to be a financial expert by our Board of Directors and independent, as that term is defined in the listing standards of the NYSE.

PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES BY THE ISSUER AND AFFILIATED PURCHASES

On October 16, 2014, we announced that our Board of Directors authorized a new share repurchase program under which we may repurchase up to $20 million of our outstanding common stock over the next two years. Purchases under the program may be made from time to time for cash in open market transactions at prevailing market prices or in privately negotiated transactions. The timing and amount of purchases under the program are determined by our management, based on their evaluation market conditions, capital allocation alternatives, and other factors . The program does not require us to purchase any specific number or amount of shares of our common stock and may be suspended or reinstated at any time in our discretion and without notice. We will execute purchases only during periods where the executive team and the Board of Directors are not aware of material inside information that would likely affect a seller's decision to sell. As of December 31, 2015, no shares have been repurchased under this plan.

ITEM 16G.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Pursuant to an exception for foreign private issuers, we, as a Marshall Islands company, are not required to comply with the corporate governance practices followed by U.S. companies under the NYSE listing standards. We believe that our established practices in the area of corporate governance are in line with the spirit of the NYSE standards and provide adequate protection to our shareholders. In this respect, we have voluntarily adopted NYSE required practices, such as (a) having a majority of independent directors, (b) establishing audit, compensation and nominating committees and (c) adopting a Code of Ethics.

There are two significant differences between our corporate governance practices and the practices required by the NYSE. The NYSE requires that non-management directors meet regularly in executive sessions without management. The NYSE also requires that all independent directors meet in an executive session at least once a year. As permitted under Marshall Islands law and our bylaws, our non-management directors do not regularly hold executive sessions without management and we do not expect them to do so in the future.

The NYSE requires companies to adopt and disclose corporate governance guidelines. The guidelines must address, among other things: director qualification standards, director responsibilities, director access to management and independent advisers, director compensation, director orientation and continuing education, management succession and an annual performance evaluation. We are not required to adopt such guidelines under Marshall Islands law and we have not adopted such guidelines.

Information about our corporate governance practices may also be found on our website, http://www.ampni.com, under "Investor Relations—Corporate Governance."

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Aegean Marine Petroleum Network, Inc.

Majuro, Republic of the Marshall Islands

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Aegean Marine Petroleum Network, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2015. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Aegean Marine Petroleum Network, Inc. and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2015, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015, based on the criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated April 28, 2016 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Aegean Marine Petroleum Network, Inc.

Majuro, Republic of the Marshall Islands

We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Aegean Marine Petroleum Network, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2015, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. The Company's management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company's principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the company's board of directors, management, and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of the inherent limitations of internal control over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015, based on the criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2015 of the Company and our report dated April 28, 2016 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.

2.	Significant Accounting Policies:

Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and include for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2015, the accounts and operating results of the Company. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company consolidates subsidiaries where it holds a controlling financial interest or it has an interest in a variable interest entity (VIE). The condition for a controlling financial interest is ownership of majority of the voting interest of over 50% of the outstanding voting shares or the power to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly affect the entity's economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses of the entity that could potentially be significant to the entity or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the entity. Noncontrolling interest in both equity and results of operations of subsidiaries are presented separately.

Use of Estimates: The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Foreign Currency Transactions: The functional currency of Aegean and its material subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar because the Company purchases and sells marine petroleum products in the international oil and gas markets and because the Company's vessels operate in international shipping markets; both of these international markets transact business primarily in U.S. dollars. The Company's accounting records are maintained in U.S. dollars. Transactions involving other currencies during the year are converted into U.S. dollars using the exchange rates in effect at the time of the transactions. At the balance sheet dates, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in other currencies are adjusted to reflect the year-end exchange rates. Resulting gains or losses are reflected separately in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

Cash and Cash Equivalents: The Company considers highly liquid investments such as time deposits and certificates of deposit with an original maturity of three months or less at time of purchase to be cash equivalents.

Restricted Cash: Restricted cash consists of interest-bearing deposits with certain banks as cash collateral against outstanding short-term facilities and retention accounts that can only be used for the purposes of repayment of current portions of long-term loans. Restricted cash also includes interest-bearing deposits with an international bank as cash collateral against standby letters of credit issued by the same bank to a shipyard. Restricted cash is classified as non-current when the funds are to be used to acquire non-current assets.

Trade Receivables, net: Management is responsible for approving credit to customers, setting and maintaining credit standards, and managing the overall quality of the credit portfolio. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers based upon payment history and the assessments of customers' credit worthiness. The Company generally provides payment terms of approximately 30 days. The Company continuously monitors collections and payments from its customers and maintains a provision for estimated credit losses based upon its historical experience with its customers, current market conditions of its customers, and any specific customer collection issues. Accounts receivable are reduced by an allowance for amounts that may become uncollectible in the future. The Company had accounts receivable of $317,152 and $360,074, before allowances for doubtful accounts of $7,278 and $5,851 as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Allowances for doubtful accounts are summarized as follows:

	Allowances for doubtful accounts
Balance, December 31, 2012	$	3,503
- Recoveries		(1,374	)
- Additions		493
Balance, December 31, 2013		2,622

The Company transfers ownership of eligible trade account receivable to a third-party purchaser without recourse in exchange for cash. The factoring of trade accounts receivable under the agreement is accounted for as a sale. Proceeds from the transfer reflect the carrying amount of the trade account receivable less a discount. The trade account receivables sold pursuant to this factoring agreement are excluded from trade receivables in the consolidated balance sheets and the proceeds are reflected as cash provided by operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows. The Company continues to service, administer and collect the trade account receivables sold under this program. The Company does not record a servicing asset or liability on the consolidated balance sheets as the Company estimates the fee it receives is at fair value. Servicing fees received are recorded in the interest and finance costs in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

2.	Significant Accounting Policies: (Continued)

Insurance Claims: Insurance claims are recorded on the accrual basis once recovery is virtually certain under the related insurance policies and the Company can make an estimate of the amount to be reimbursed. Insurance claims represent the claimable expenses, net of deductibles, incurred through December 31 of each year, which are expected to be recovered from insurance companies.

Inventories: Inventories comprise marine fuel oil ("MFO"), marine gas oil ("MGO"), lubricants, stores and victuals which are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by the first in, first out method. Inventory costs include expenditures directly incurred in bringing the inventory to its existing condition and location.

Vessel Cost: Vessels are stated at cost, which consists of the contract price and any material expenses incurred upon acquisition (initial repairs, improvements and delivery expenses, interest and on-site supervision costs incurred during the construction periods). Subsequent expenditures for conversions and major improvements are also capitalized when they appreciably extend the life, increase the earning capacity or improve the efficiency or safety of the vessels; otherwise these amounts are charged to expense as incurred.

Advances and milestone payments made to shipyards during construction periods are classified as "Advances for vessels under construction and acquisitions" until the date of delivery and acceptance of the vessel, at which date they are reclassified to "Vessels, cost". Advances for vessels under construction also include supervision costs, amounts paid under engineering contracts, capitalized interest and other expenses directly related to the construction of the vessels.

Amounts of interest to be capitalized during the asset acquisition period are determined by applying an interest rate ("the capitalization rate") to the average amount of accumulated expenditures for the asset during the period. The capitalization rates used in an accounting period are based on the rates applicable to borrowings outstanding during the period. The Company does not capitalize amounts in excess of actual interest expense incurred in the period. If the Company's financing plans associate a specific new borrowing with a qualifying asset, the Company uses the rate on that borrowing as the capitalization rate to be applied to that portion of the average accumulated expenditures for the asset that does not exceed the amount of that borrowing. If average accumulated expenditures for the asset exceed the amounts of specific new borrowings associated with the asset, the capitalization rate applied to such excess is a weighted average of the rates applicable to other borrowings of the Company.

Vessels acquired as a part of an acquisition are recognized at their fair value as at the date of the acquisition.

Vessel Depreciation on Ocean- going Bunkering Tankers: Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the vessels, after considering the estimated salvage value. Each vessel's estimated salvage value is equal to the product of its light-weight tonnage and the estimated scrap rate. Management estimates the useful life of the Company's bunkering tankers to be 30 years from the date of initial delivery from the shipyard. Management estimates the useful life of the Company's floating storage facilities to be 30 years from the date of acquisition. Secondhand vessels are depreciated from the date of their acquisition through their remaining estimated useful life. However, when regulations place limitations on the ability of a vessel to trade, its useful life is adjusted to end at the date such regulations become effective.

Vessel Depreciation on In-Land Waterway Bunkering Tankers: Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the vessels, after considering the estimated salvage value. Each vessel's estimated salvage value is equal to the product of its light-weight tonnage and the estimated scrap rate. Management estimates the useful life of the in-land waterway bunkering tankers to be 45 years from the date of the initial delivery from the shipyard.

Other fixed assets, net: Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets, after considering any estimated salvage value.

Intangible Assets: These assets are being amortized over their useful life.

Intangible assets acquired in a business combination and recognized separately from goodwill are initially recognized at their fair value at the acquisition date. Subsequent to initial recognition, intangible assets acquired in a business combination are reported at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses, if any. These assets are being amortized over their useful life.

Goodwill: Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the net of the fair value of the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and the fair value of liabilities assumed in business acquisitions. As required by the goodwill topic of the FASB Accounting Standard Codification (ASC) Topic 350, Intangibles Goodwill and Other, goodwill is not amortized, but tested as of December 31 of each year for impairment. The Company also evaluates goodwill for impairment at any time that events occur or circumstances change indicating a possible impairment. The Company tests for goodwill impairment using the two-step process. The first step of the goodwill impairment test, used to identify potential impairment, compares the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. The second step of the goodwill impairment test, used to measure the amount of impairment loss, compares the implied fair value of reporting unit goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. Fair value of the reporting units is derived using discounted cash flow analysis.

2.	Significant Accounting Policies: (Continued)

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets: Accounting guidance requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets held and used or to be disposed of by an entity, be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. In evaluating useful lives and carrying values of long-lived assets, the Company reviews certain indicators of potential impairment, such as vessel sale and purchase prices in the marketplace, business plans and overall market conditions. When the estimate of undiscounted cash flows, excluding interest charges, expected to be generated by the use of the asset and any future disposal is less than its carrying amount, the asset should be evaluated for an impairment loss. In developing estimates of future cash flows, the Company relied upon estimates made by management with regard to the Company's vessels and its other fixed assets, including future deliveries and storage throughput usage, operating expenses, and the estimated remaining useful lives of the vessels or other fixed assets. These assumptions are based on historical trends as well as future expectations and are consistent with the plans and forecasts used by management to conduct its business. The variability of these factors depends on a number of conditions, including uncertainty about future events and general economic conditions; therefore, the Company's accounting estimates might change from period to period. In the event that undiscounted projected net operating cash flows were less than carrying value, the Company would estimate the fair value of the related asset and record a charge to operations calculated by comparing the asset's carrying value to the estimated fair value. Measurement of the impairment loss is based on the fair value of the asset as determined by management considering third-party valuations and discounted future cash flows attributable to the vessel or asset group. The Company regularly reviews the carrying amount of its long-lived assets.

Accounting for Drydocking Costs: The Company's vessels are generally required to be drydocked every 30 to 60 months for major repairs and maintenance that cannot be performed while the vessels are in operation. The Company follows the deferral method of accounting for drydocking costs whereby actual costs incurred are deferred and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the period through the date the next drydocking is scheduled to become due. Unamortized drydocking costs of vessels that are sold are written off against income in the year of the vessel's sale.

Leases : Leases are classified as capital leases if they meet at least one of the following criteria: (i) the leased asset automatically transfers title at the end of the lease term; (ii) the lease contains a bargain purchase option; (iii) the lease term equals or exceeds 75% of the remaining estimated economic life of the leased asset; (iv) or the present value of the minimum lease payments equals or exceeds 90% of the excess of fair value of the leased property. If none of the above criteria is met, the lease is accounted for as an operating lease.

The Company records vessels under capital leases as fixed assets at the lower of the present value of the minimum lease payments at inception of the lease or the fair value of the vessel. Vessels under capital leases are amortized over the estimated remaining useful life of the vessel or until the end of the lease term, if shorter. Assets held under capital leases are presented as "Advances for vessels under construction and acquisitions" in the balance sheet until the vessel is deemed ready for its intended use and the balance is reclassified to "Vessels, cost". The current portion of capitalized lease obligations are reflected in the balance sheet in "Accrued and other current liabilities" and remaining long-term capitalized lease obligations are presented as "Other non-current liabilities".

Financing Costs: Fees incurred for obtaining new loans or refinancing existing loans are deferred and amortized to interest expense over the life of the related debt using the effective interest method. Unamortized fees relating to loans repaid or refinanced are generally expensed in the period the repayment or refinancing is made.

2.	Significant Accounting Policies: (Continued)

Convertible Senior Notes : In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC), Topic 470, Debt, for convertible debt instruments that contain cash settlement options upon conversion at the option of the issuer, the Company determines the carrying amount of the liability and equity component of its convertible notes by first determining the carrying amount of the liability component by measuring the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an associated equity component. The carrying amount of the equity component representing the embedded conversion option is determined by deducting the fair value of the liability component from the total proceeds. The resulting debt discount is amortized to interest cost using the effective interest method over the period the debt is expected to be outstanding as an additional non-cash interest expense. Transaction costs associated with the instrument are allocated pro-rata between the debt and equity components.

Pension and Retirement Benefit Obligations: The vessel-owning companies included in the consolidation employ the crew on board under short-term contracts (usually up to nine months) and accordingly, they are not liable for any pension or post retirement benefits. The Company's full-time Greek employees are covered by state-sponsored pension funds for which the Company is required to contribute a portion of the monthly salary of these employees to the fund (i.e., a defined contribution plan). Upon retirement of these employees, the state-sponsored pension funds are responsible for paying the employees' retirement benefits and accordingly, the Company has no obligation for these benefits.

Accounting for Revenues and Expenses: Revenues are principally earned from the physical supply of marine petroleum products via the Company's bunkering tankers. Sales of marine petroleum products and cost of sales of marine petroleum products are recorded in the period when the marine petroleum products are loaded onto the customer's vessel. In Greece, revenues are earned from the sale of marine petroleum products through a related party physical supplier (refer to Note 5). These sales and the respective cost of sales are recorded in the period when the related party physical supplier delivers the marine petroleum products to the customer.

For arrangements in which the Company physically supplies marine petroleum products via its own bunkering tankers, cost of marine petroleum products sold represents amounts paid by the Company for marine petroleum products sold in the period being reported on. For arrangements in which marine petroleum products are purchased from the Company's related party physical supplier, cost of marine petroleum products sold represents the total amount paid by the Company to the physical supplier for marine petroleum products and the delivery thereof to the Company's customer.

Revenues are also generated from voyage agreements of the Company's vessels. Under a voyage charter the revenues and associated voyage costs are recognized over the duration of the voyage. A voyage is deemed to commence upon the later of the completion of discharge of the vessel's previous cargo or upon vessel arrival to the agreed upon port based on the terms of a voyage contract and is not cancelable and voyage is deemed to end upon the completion of discharge of the delivered cargo.

The Company also recognizes other revenues which mainly derive from brokerage and agency fees, throughput fees and storage fees. These revenues are recognized when services are performed and collectability is reasonably assured.

Operating expenses are accounted for on the accrual basis. The selling and distribution expenses generally represent indirect expenses incurred for selling and distribution and related to the delivery of the products and services to the customers. The general and administrative expenses are presented separately and represent the administrative cost of managing the Company such as the office administrative personnel, the maintenance of the Company's office property, equipment and other fixed assets and its depreciation, and all the general office expenses, professional fees, travel expenses and utilities.

Repairs and Maintenance: All vessel repair and maintenance expenses, including drydocking costs (representing only non-scheduled repairs and maintenance work undertaken on a vessel's engine) and underwater inspections are expensed in the year incurred. Such costs are included in other operating expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

Income Taxes: The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method, as required by the generally accepted accounting principles for income taxes reporting. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are established for temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of the Company's assets and liabilities at each period end corresponding to those jurisdictions subject to income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for all temporary items and an offsetting valuation allowance is recorded to the extent that it is not more likely than not that the asset will be realized. Deferred tax is measured based on tax rates and laws enacted at the balance sheet date in any jurisdiction.

Income tax regulations in the different countries in which the Company operates under which the Company's uncertain income tax positions are determined could be interpreted differently resulting in tax obligations differing from those currently presented. In this sense, the income tax returns of the Company's primary tax jurisdictions remain subject to examination by related tax authorities.

Earnings per Common Share: Basic earnings per common share are computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Net income available to common stockholders is calculated as net income less that amount allocable to non-vested share-based payment awards that contain rights to receive non-forfeitable dividends or dividend equivalents and participate equally in undistributed earnings. Non-vested share-based payment awards have no contractual obligations to share in the losses of the entity and are therefore excluded from the calculation of loss per share. Diluted earnings per common share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised. Dilution has been computed by the treasury stock method whereby all of the Company's dilutive securities are assumed to be exercised and the proceeds used to repurchase common shares at the weighted average market price of the Company's common stock during the relevant periods. The incremental shares (the difference between the number of shares assumed issued and the number of shares assumed purchased) are included in the denominator of the diluted earnings per share computation. Non-vested shares are included in the calculation of the diluted earnings per shares, based on the weighted average number of non-vested shares assumed to be outstanding during the period.

Contingencies: The Company accrues for a loss if the Company deems it probable that a liability has been incurred at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the amount of that loss can be reasonably estimated. If the Company deems it reasonably possible that a liability has been incurred, the nature of the contingency and an estimate of the amount of loss is disclosed in the notes to the financial statements.

Financial Instruments: The carrying amounts of the current financial assets and current financial liabilities reported in the consolidated balance sheets approximate their respective fair values because of the short term nature of these financial instruments. Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash are considered Level 1 items as they represent liquid assets with short-term maturities. The fair value of the revolving credit facilities is estimated based on current rates offered to the Company for similar debt of the same remaining maturities. The carrying value approximates the fair market value for the floating rate loans and revolving credit facilities due to their variable interest rate, being EURIBOR or LIBOR. LIBOR and EURIBOR rates are observable at commonly quoted intervals for the full terms of the loans and hence floating rate loans are considered Level 2 items in accordance with the fair value hierarchy. The Convertible Senior Notes have a fixed rate and their estimated fair values were determined through Level 2 inputs of the fair value hierarchy (quoted price in the over-the counter-market). The estimated fair value of the Convertible Senior Notes at December 31, 2015 and 2014, is $116,218 and $100,792, respectively, compared to a carrying value net of finance charges of $118,031 and $73,522, respectively.

The Company enters into derivative contracts in order to mitigate the risk of market price fluctuations in fuel and the interest rate risk deriving from its loan agreements. The derivative instruments are classified according to the guidance of the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) for derivative instruments and hedging activities. The Company currently does not apply hedge accounting to its derivative instruments.

Interest Rate Swap : Changes in the estimated fair value of the interest rate swap are recognized as components of interest and finance costs in the consolidated statement of income. The fair value of the contract is recorded in the Company's consolidated balance sheet in non-current liabilities.

Fuel Pricing Contracts: Changes in the estimated fair value of the fuel pricing contracts are recognized as components of cost of revenue in the consolidated statement of income. The fair value of the outstanding fuel pricing contracts is presented in the Company's consolidated balance sheet in current assets/liabilities. The Company classifies cash flows related to derivative financial instruments within cash used in operating activities in the consolidated statement of cash flows.

For more information on the Company's derivatives, see Note 16.

Gains/Losses on sale of subsidiary: Gains or losses that result from a loss of a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary are recorded in earnings and are classified as non-operating gains and losses.

Assets Held for Sale: It is the Company's policy to dispose of vessels when suitable opportunities occur and not necessarily to keep them until the end of their useful life. The Company classifies vessels as being held for sale when the following criteria are met: (i) management possessing the necessary authority has committed to a plan to sell the vessels, (ii) the vessels are available for immediate sale in their present condition, (iii) an active program to find a buyer and other actions required to complete the plan to sell the vessels have been initiated, (iv) the sale of the vessels is probable, and transfer of the asset is expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year and (v) the vessels are being actively marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable in relation to their current fair value and actions required to complete the plan indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be made or that the plan will be withdrawn. Vessels classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. These vessels are not depreciated once they meet the criteria to be classified as held for sale. Furthermore, in the period a vessel meets the held for sale criteria in accordance with ASC Topic 360, Property, Plant and Equipment, a loss is recognized for any reduction of the vessel's carrying amount to its fair value less cost to sell.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements:

Going concern : In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15 "Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (Sub-Topic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern., which provides guidance on determining when and how to disclose going-concern uncertainties in the financial statements. The new standard requires management to perform interim and annual assessments of an entity's ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date the financial statements are issued. The ASU applies to all entities and is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods thereafter, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of ASU 2014-15 on its consolidated financial statements.

Interest—Imputation of Interest: To simplify the presentation of debt issuance costs, the amendments under Accounting Standard Update No. 2015-03, issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from that debt liability, consistent with the presentation of a debt discount. The amendments in this Update for public entities are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years and are expected to affect the Company's treatment of the Convertible Senior Notes issued subsequently according to ASC Topic 470, Debt.

2.	Significant Accounting Policies: (Continued)

Revenue from Contracts with Customers: In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB"), issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" ("ASU 2014-09"), which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle is that a company should recognize revenue when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 defines a five-step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing U.S. GAAP. This standard is effective for public entities with reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early application is permitted only as of annual reporting periods (including interim reporting periods within those periods) beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of this adoption on its consolidated financial statements.

Measurement of Inventory: In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11 "Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory" to reduce the complexity and cost of the subsequent measurement of inventory, in particular when using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) or average cost methods. The provisions of ASU 2015-11 specifically exclude inventory that is measured using the last-in, first-out (LIFO) or the retail inventory method. Entities should measure inventory within the scope of ASU 2015-11 at the lower of cost and net realizable value. ASU 2015-11 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of ASU 2015-10 on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Measurement of Financial Assets and Liabilities: In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01 "Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities" to enhance the reporting model for financial instruments to provide users of financial statements with more decision-useful information. ASU 2016-01 particularly relates to the fair value and impairment of equity investments, financial instruments measured at amortized cost, and the use of the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes. ASU 2016-01 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is only permitted for certain particular amendments within ASU 2016-01, where financial statements have not yet been issued. The Company is currently assessing the impact of ASU 2016-01 on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Leases: In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 "Leases" to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 creates a new Accounting Standards Codification Topic 842 "Leases" to replace the previous Topic 840 "Leases." ASU 2016-02 affects both lessees and lessors, although for the latter the provisions are similar to the previous model, but updated to align with certain changes to the lessee model and also the new revenue recognition provisions contained in ASU 2014-09 (see above). ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of ASU 2016-02 on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Stock Compensation : In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Stock Compensation, which is intended to simplify several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment award transactions. The guidance will be effective for the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that year. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

3.	Significant Acquisitions:

U.S. East Coast Business: On December 18, 2013, the Company, via its subsidiary Aegean Bunkering USA, acquired Hess 's U.S. East Coast operations (the "US East Coast Business"), for a total consideration of $30,000 plus the inventory acquired on closing which amounted to $97,390. The U.S. East Coast business includes physical supplies of marine fuel products to seagoing ships in ports and at sea. The bunkering operations supply the heavily trafficked ports of New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Norfolk and Charleston, and include approximately 250,000 cubic meters of leased tank storage. This transaction marks the Company's entry into supplying customers in the U.S. and increases its exposure to U.S. clients worldwide, including leading cruise lines.

The following table presents the fair value of the assets and liabilities as of the acquisition date.

Purchase Price	December 18, 2013
Cash consideration to sellers	$	127,390
Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities Acquired
Inventories		97,390
Lease agreement		1,915
Total fair value of assets and liabilities acquired		99,305
Goodwill	$	28,085

Goodwill, which arose on the acquisition, constitutes a premium paid by the Company over the fair value of the net assets of the U.S. East Coast Business, which is attributable to anticipated benefits from the unique position of the U.S. East Coast Business in the markets in which it operates.

The preparation of pro-forma information of the Company as though the acquisition had occurred at the beginning of the prior reporting year and of comparable information for the previous reporting year is impracticable due to different accounting principles and policies applied and due to the fact that Hess historically operated the U.S. East Coast business primarily as part of its integrated distribution network. Therefore, meaningful historical revenue information is not available. As such, the Company has not presented pro forma earnings information for the year ended December 31, 2013.

The goodwill presented in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets is analyzed as follows:

	Year Ended December 31,
	2015			2014

12.	Goodwill and intangible assets: (continued)

Intangible assets: The Company also has identified finite-lived intangible assets associated with concession agreements acquired with the purchase of the Las Palmas and Panama subsidiaries with remaining weighted-average amortization period of 12.5 years and a non-compete covenant acquired with the Aegean NWE Business with remaining amortization period of 0.8 years. The total remaining weighted-average amortization period of finite-lived intangible assets is 12.0 years as of December 31, 2015. The values recorded have been recognized at the date of the acquisition and are amortized on a straight line basis over their useful life.

On September 25, 2015, the Company ceased its operation in the Portland terminal and wrote-off the intangible asset associated with the concession agreement. The impairment charge on the disposal of $5,308 was calculated as the initial cost less the accumulated amortization. This loss is included under the impairment charge in the consolidated statements of income.

In connection with the acquisition of the U.S. East Coast business, the Company acquired an agreement for the charter-in of a barging vessel, which expired on September 9, 2014. This contract included fixed day rate that was below day rate available as of the acquisition date.

On October 23, 2013 the Company issued $75,000 aggregate principal amount of 4% Convertible Unsecured Senior Notes ("Notes"), which are due November 1, 2018. The full overallotment option granted was exercised and an additional $11,250 Notes were purchased by the underwriters. Accordingly, $86,250 in aggregate principal amount of Notes was sold, resulting in aggregate net proceeds of approximately $83,447 after the underwriters' commissions.

The holders may convert their Notes to common stock at any time on or after May 1, 2018, but prior to maturity. However, holders may also convert their Notes prior to May 1, 2018, under the following circumstances: (1) if the closing price of the common stock reaches and remains at or above 130% of the conversion price of $14.23 per share of common stock, or 70.2679 shares of common stock per $1,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes, in effect on that last trading day, for at least 20 trading days in the period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the calendar quarter immediately preceding the calendar quarter in which the conversion occurs; (2) during the five consecutive trading-day period after any five consecutive trading-day period in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes for each day of that period was less than 98% of the closing price of the Company's common stock multiplied by then applicable conversion rate; or (3) if specified distributions to holders of the Company's common stock are made or specified corporate events occur.

Since the Notes contain a cash settlement option upon conversion at the option of the issuer, the Company has bifurcated, at the issuance date, the $86,250 principal amount of the Notes into liability and equity components of $72,696 and $13,554, respectively, by first determining the carrying amount of the liability component of the Notes by measuring the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an associated equity component. The equity component was calculated by deducting the fair value of the liability component from the total proceeds received at issuance.

(n)

On January 16, 2015, the Company issued $48,300 aggregate principal amount of 4% Convertible Unsecured Senior Notes ("Notes"), which are due November 1, 2018. The Notes bear the same conversion terms with the 4% Convertible Unsecured Senior Notes issued on October 23, 2013.

The additional Notes contain a cash settlement option upon conversion at the option of the issuer, the Company has bifurcated, at the issuance date, the $48,300 principal amount of the Notes and the premium received of $5,313 into liability and equity components of $41,076 and $12,537, respectively, by first determining the carrying amount of the liability component of the Notes by measuring the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an associated equity component. The equity component was calculated by deducting the fair value of the liability component from the total proceeds received at issuance. Net proceeds from the Notes amounted to $51,802 after the underwriters commissions.

The Company's interest expense associated with these Notes is based on an effective interest rate of 9% and the difference from the interest payable upon the Notes is amortized until the expiration of the Notes and included under interest and finance cost in the accompanying consolidated statements of income (Note 21).

The total interest expense related to the Notes in the Company's consolidated financial statements statement of income for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 amounted to $10,131, $6,148 and $1,143, respectively, of which $4,082, $2,297 and $419 are non-cash amortization of the discount on the liability component and of the transaction costs allocated to the liability component, $6,462, $3,450 and $652 are the contractual interest payable semi-annually at a coupon rate of 4% per year.

The Company uses derivatives in accordance with its overall risk management strategy. The changes in the fair value of these derivatives are recognized immediately through earnings. For additional information on its derivatives accounting policy, see Note 2.

The following describes the Company's derivative classifications: The Company enters into interest rate swap contracts to economically hedge its exposure to variability in its floating rate long-term debt. Under the terms of the interest rate swaps, the Company and the bank agreed to exchange at specified intervals the difference between paying fixed rate and floating rate interest amount calculated by reference to the agreed principal amount and maturity. Interest rate swaps allow the Company to convert long-term borrowings issued at floating rates to equivalent fixed rates.

As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company was committed to the following 15 year interest rate swap arrangement with a call option for the bank to terminate it after 5 years duration, on March 31, 2016:

	Interest Rate Index	Principal Amount				As of December 31, 2015 Fair Value/ Carrying Amount of Liability				Weighted-average remaining term				Fixed Interest Rate
U.S. Dollar-denominated Interest Rate Swap	Euribor		$	4,233			$	420				10.25				2.35	%

U.S. Dollar-denominated Interest Rate Swap	Euribor		$	5,178			$	592				11.25				2.35	%

The Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the counterparty to the interest rate swap agreement. In order to minimize counterparty risk, the Company enters into derivative transactions with counterparties that are rated AAA or at least A at the time of the transactions.

The Company uses fuel pricing contracts to hedge exposure to changes in the net cost of marine fuel purchases. The Company has the right of offset with the counterparty of the fuel pricing contracts, and settles outstanding balances on a monthly basis. Therefore, these amounts are presented on a net basis in the consolidated balance sheets (on a gross basis: an asset of $46,949 and a liability of $24,533 as of December 31, 2015 and an asset of $43,499 and a liability of $24,558 as of December 31, 2014).

Fuel pricing contracts		18,941			-		18,941			-

Total	$	18,349			-		18,349		$	-

The fair value of the interest rate swaps is determined using the discounted cash flow method based on market-based Euribor rates swap yield curves, taking into account current interest rates. Valuation models require a variety of inputs, including contractual terms, market prices, yield curves, credit spreads, measures of volatility, and correlations of such inputs.

The Company uses observable inputs to calculate the mark-to-market valuation of the fuel pricing derivatives. Fuel pricing contracts are valued using quoted market prices of the underlying commodity. During the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company entered into fuel pricing contracts for 14,553,635 metric tons and 7,784,141 metric tons, respectively.

The Company's derivatives trade in over-the-counter markets, and as such, model inputs are generally observable and do not require significant management judgment. Such instruments are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Environmental and Other Liabilities: The Company accrues for the cost of environmental liabilities when management becomes aware that a liability is probable and is able to reasonably estimate the Company's exposure. Currently, management is not aware of any such claims or contingent liabilities for which a provision should be established in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The Company's Protection and Indemnity ("P&I") insurance policies cover third-party liability and other expenses related to injury or death of crew, passengers and other third-parties, loss or damage of cargo, claims arising from collisions with other vessels, damage to other third-party property, and pollution arising from oil or other substances. The Company's coverage under the P&I insurance policies, except for pollution, are unlimited. Coverage for pollution is $1,000,000 per vessel per incident.

Legal Matters

In November 2005, an unrelated party filed a declaratory action against one of the Company's subsidiaries before the First Instance Court of Piraeus, Greece. The plaintiff asserted that he was instrumental in the negotiation of the Company's eight-year Fuel Purchase Agreement with a government refinery in Jamaica and sought a judicial affirmation of his alleged contractual right to receive a commission of $0.01 per metric ton of marine fuel over the term of the contract. In December 2008, the First Instance Court of Piraeus dismissed the plaintiff's action as vague and inadmissible, however the Company appealed that decision on the grounds that there was no contract between the Company and the plaintiff and that the court lacked jurisdiction. While the action was pending in Greece, the plaintiff commenced a new action involving the same cause of action before the Commercial Court of Paris, France, which dismissed that action in June 2009. The plaintiff's appeal of the dismissal was denied by the Paris Court of Appeal in February 2010. In January 2012, the plaintiff commenced a new action relating to the same allegations before the Commercial Court of Paris, which was dismissed on June 27, 2012 in favor of the competence and jurisdiction of the Greek courts. In July 2012, the plaintiff filed a "contredit," an appeal procedure under French law. In November 2013, the Court held that there is no matter pending in Greece that would allow the French courts to decline jurisdiction to the benefit of the Greek proceedings. As a result, the case is to return to the Commercial Court of Paris which should have to examine the admissibility of Mr. Varouxis' claim in France. The relevant pleadings were issued on December 18, 2015. According to its decision the French Court held that Varouxis is entitled to a part compensation based on a half of its claim fee of $0.01 per metric ton sold but limited to the amount of $670,000 with respect to the years 2005 to 2008. The Judgement is enforceable subject to the submission by Mr Varouxis to AMP of a bank guarantee as counter-security covering the reimbursement to AMP of the said sum plus interest. Until now Mr. Varouxis has been unable to submit a properly worded bank guarantee. In the meantime, both AMP and Mr. Varouxis have filed contrary appeals versus the decision issued. In any event our position continues to be that this claim is unwarranted and lacking in merit. The Company is not in a position to comment further on this matter at this time.

On December 18, 2014, the Company and Aegean Bunkering (USA) LLC, or the Aegean Parties, filed a one-count complaint for breach of contract against Hess Corporation, or Hess, in New York Supreme Court, New York County (653887/2014). In the complaint, the Aegean Parties allege that Hess breached certain express representations and warranties in representing its financial condition in an agreement pursuant to which Hess sold its bunker oil business to Aegean Bunkering (USA) LLC. The Aegean Parties claim approximately $28,000 in compensatory damages, exclusive of interest and costs. On February 9, 2015, Hess filed an answer to the complaint. During the course of discovery, through co-counsel Boies Schiller & Flexner LLP, the Aegean Parties filed a motion for leave to amend the complaint on December 15, 2015. The proposed amended complaint added a claim for fraud and fraudulent inducement in connection with the Agreement, seeking approximately $127 million in compensatory damages, exclusive of interest and costs, and punitive damages in an amount to be determined at trial. On Hess's consent, the Aegean Parties' motion to amend the complaint was granted on January 15, 2016. On February 3, 2016, Hess filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint in part, specifically, the fraud and fraudulent inducement claim and portions of the contract claim. The Aegean Parties' responded to the motion to dismiss on March 4, 2016, and Hess submitted its reply on March 18, 2016. The parties are now awaiting a decision from the Court. The Company is not in a position to comment further on this matter at this time.

17.	Commitments and Contingencies: (Continued)

The Company has supplied bunkers through agreements with various entities of the O.W. Bunker Group, which filed for bankruptcy in November 2014. The Company issued notice to members of the O.W. Bunker Group for the request of payment for the value of the bunkers supplied. The Company's exposure for these supplies amounts to $5,474, of which $3,129 was recorded as a provision for doubtful accounts in the statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2015. The Company believes that the respective members of the O.W. Bunker Group were never the rightful owners of the bunkers and is currently trying to work out escrow or other practical solutions with the end users. For the Company's main action before the Pireus Multi-Member Court of First Instance for the supply of M/V CHAMPION TRADER and its claim for the relevant invoice value, the Court issued its Judgment and accepted our claim in full for the principal amount of $415 plus interest as of December 1, 2014. The Company expects to recover the amount of at least $2,298.

One of the Company's subsidiaries, Aegean Oil Terminal Corporation, has provided storage facilities through agreements to Alco Shipping Services LLC, Alco Fuel Trading LLC and House of Gas Trading DMCC. In breach of their obligations under the agreements the debtors failed to deliver any products to the terminal and to pay the invoices in the principal sum of $1.3 million. Following various demands for payment and in the absence of payment we have terminated the agreement and commenced legal proceedings against the debtors in the High Court of London. After lodging with the Court the relevant application, claim for and witness statement the Company received a sealed order from the High Court in London giving the Company the permission to service the Claim Form and Particulars of Claim out of the jurisdiction upon the debtors in UAE. The UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office have now returned the service process request with the documents unserved due to the fact that the Debtors have moved offices or still pending. The Debtors do not have a valid defense and once the claim form is served upon them the Company expects to proceed to obtain a summary judgment from the High Court in London. As soon as a judgment is obtained The Company expects to proceed to execute same by way of arrest and sale of their assets.

Various claims, suits, and complains, including those involving government regulations and product liability, arise in the ordinary course of business. In addition, losses may arise from disputes with charterers and agents and insurance and other claims with suppliers relating to the operations of the Company's vessels. Currently, management is not aware of any such claims or contingent liabilities for which a provision should be established in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

22.	Equity Incentive Plan:

In March 2015, the Company adopted a 2015 equity incentive plan which replaced in full the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan. The Company has reserved a total of 5,091,402 shares of common stock for issuance under the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan, consisting of 91,402 common shares that remained unissued under the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan plus an additional 5,000,000 common shares. Under the terms of the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan, the compensation committee may grant new options exercisable at a price per common share to be determined by our Board of Directors but in no event less than fair market value as of the date of grant. The 2015 Equity Incentive Plan also permits the Company's compensation committee to award restricted stock, restricted stock units, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, dividend equivalent rights, unrestricted stock, and performance shares. The 2015 Equity Incentive Plan expires in March 2025.

The Company measures stock-based compensation cost at grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award which is determined by the closing price of the Company's common stock traded on the NYSE on the grant date, and recognizes the cost as expense on a straight-line basis (net of estimated forfeitures) over the requisite service period. The expense is recorded in the general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income. Aegean is incorporated in a non-taxable jurisdiction and accordingly, no deferred tax assets are recognized for these stock-based incentive awards.

All grants of non-vested stock issued under the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan are subject to accelerated vesting upon certain circumstances set forth in the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan.

The following table summarizes the status of the Company's non-vested shares outstanding for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014:

	Nonvested Stock			Weighted Average Grant Date Market Price
At December 31, 2013		1,569,102		$	8.52
Granted		1,069,500			9.97
Vested		(718,769	)		10.94

Forfeited		(1,500	)		8.37
At December 31, 2015		1,965,983		$	11.05

The total fair value of shares at vesting date during the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 were $14,556, $7,462 and $853, respectively based on the closing share price at each vesting date.

23.	Common Stock, Treasury Stock and Additional Paid-In Capital:

Authorized Capital

Aegean was formed on June 6, 2005, under the laws of the Marshall Islands. Aegean's authorized common and preferred stock since inception consisted of 100,000,000 common shares (all in registered form), par value $0.01 per share and 25,000,000 preferred shares (all in registered form), par value $0.01 per share. The holders of the common shares are entitled to one vote on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders and to receive all dividends, if any. The Company's Board of Directors shall have the authority to establish such series of preferred stock and with such designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or special rights and qualifications, limitations or restrictions as shall be stated in the resolutions providing for the issue of such preferred stock.

Share Issuance and Repurchase

On October 3, 2005, Aegean acquired from Leveret 8% of the total then-issued and outstanding common stock of Aegean, representing the entire interests in Leveret of members of Mr. Dimitris Melisanidis' family (other than Mr. Melisanidis himself) for a price of $35,000. Those shares were cancelled upon repurchase, in accordance with a resolution of the Board of Directors of Aegean. The repurchased shares represented the entire beneficial ownership of those members of Mr. Melisanidis' family. The excess of the purchase price over the par value of the acquired shares was reflected first as a deduction from additional paid-in capital and, upon exhaustion of the balance of additional paid-in capital, as a deduction from retained earnings.

On June 8, 2005, Aegean issued 30,472,827 common shares (as restated for the split-ups of common stock, described below), with a $0.01 par value per share, to Leveret and Leveret contemporaneously contributed its direct and indirect ownership in the companies described in Note 1 to Aegean.

23.	Common Stock, Treasury Stock and Additional Paid-In Capital: (Continued)

Preferred Share Purchase Rights

In August 2009, the Company authorized and declared a dividend distribution of one preferred share purchase right (a "Right") on each outstanding share of its common stock. The dividend distribution was made to shareholders of record as of August 14, 2009. The rights will separate from the common stock and become exercisable upon the earlier of (i) ten days following the public announcement or disclosure that a person or group (an "Acquiring Person") has acquired beneficial ownership, or obtained the right to acquire, 15 percent or more of the outstanding common stock or (ii) ten business days following the commencement of, or the announcement of an intention to make, a tender offer or exchange offer, the consummation of which would result in such a group or person becoming an Acquiring Person (the "Distribution Date"). On the Distribution Date, each Right holder will be entitled to purchase for $100 (the "Exercise Price") one one-thousandth of a share of a new series of junior participating preferred stock. In the event that an Acquiring Person acquires more than 15 percent of the outstanding common stock, each Right holder (except the Acquiring Person) will be entitled to purchase at the Exercise Price, shares of common stock having a market value equal to twice the Exercise Price. Any time after the date an Acquiring Person obtains more than 15 percent of the outstanding common shares and before that Acquiring Person acquires more than 50 percent of the outstanding common shares, the Company may exchange each Right owned by all other Rights holders, in whole or in part, for one common share. The Rights expire on the earliest of (i) August 14, 2019 or (ii) the redemption of the Rights by the Company or (iii) the exchange of the Rights as described above. The Company can redeem the Rights at any time on or prior to the earlier of the tenth business day following the public announcement that a person has acquired ownership of 15 percent or more of the outstanding common shares, or August 14, 2019. The Rights do not have any voting rights. The Rights have the benefit of certain customary anti-dilution protections. As of December 31, 2015, no such events had occurred, and no rights have been exercised.

Dividends

The Company declared and paid dividends of $3,926, $2,403 and $1,884 during the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Additional Paid in Capital

The amounts presented in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as additional paid-in capital comprise (i) payments made by the pre-IPO stockholders at various dates to finance vessel acquisitions in excess of the amounts of bank loans obtained and advances for working capital, (ii) the estimated value of certain incidental employee services provided to the Company by certain related companies for no consideration, (iii) an allocation of costs for office services historically shared with and the use of office equipment owned by related companies, and (iv) the difference between the par value of the shares issued in the initial and the secondary public offerings the net proceeds obtained for those shares.

24.	Earnings Per Common Share:

The computation of basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year using the two-class method. The computation of diluted earnings per share assumes the granting of non-vested share-based compensation awards (refer to Note 22), for which the assumed proceeds upon grant are deemed to be the amount of compensation cost attributable to future services and not yet recognized using the treasury stock method, to the extent dilutive.

As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company excluded 1,965,983 and 1,849,749 non vested shares, respectively, as anti-dilutive. Non-vested share-based payment awards that contain rights to receive non forfeitable dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) and participate equally in undistributed earnings are participating securities, and thus, are included in the two-class method of computing earnings per share.

The treasury stock method is used in calculating diluted earnings per share for the Notes as the Company expects to settle the principal in cash.

The components of the calculation of basic earnings per common share and diluted earnings per common share are as follows:

	Year Ended December 31,
	2015			2014			2013

Net income attributed to AMPNI shareholders	$	35,880		$	17,590		$	27,063

With respect to the period of 2016 to 2020, the Company has submitted the relevant feasibility study to the Greek Ministry of Economy and Finance which provides for a profit margin of 5%. The relevant study is pending for approval and once confirmed it will apply retroactively from January 1, 2016. AMP's income, as calculated by applying the 5.42% profit margin, as applicable, is subject to Greek corporate income tax at the rate of 29%, 26% and 26% for the fiscal year 2015, 2014 and 2013. All expenses to which the profit margin applies are deducted from gross income for Greek corporate income tax purposes. Furthermore, AMP is exempt from Greek other tax, charge or contribution in favor of the Greek State or any third-party, on income derived from all its transactions worldwide in petroleum products, lubricants and similar commodities, the object of which lies outside of Greece.

25.	Income Taxes: (Continued)

Generally, under the laws of the countries of the vessel-owning companies' and the Manager's incorporation and/or vessels' registration, the vessel-owning companies and the Manager were not subject to tax on shipping income. However, the vessel-owning companies are subject to registration and tonnage taxes, which have been included in other operating expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

The Company files income tax returns in the all federal jurisdiction and various provincial jurisdictions of its taxable subsidiaries. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by taxing authorities. Open tax years in Canada range from 2012 to 2015 and in Belgium and in the U.S.A. from 2013 to 2015. Upon examination in subsequent years, if net operating loss carry forwards and tax credit carry forwards are utilized, the Canadian and Belgian jurisdictions can reduce net operating loss carry forwards and tax credit carry forwards utilized in the year being examined if they do not agree with the carry forward amount.

26.	Business Segments and Geographical Information:

The Company is primarily a physical supplier in the downstream marine petroleum products industry. Marine petroleum products mainly consist of different classifications of marine fuel oil, marine gas oil and lubricants.

The Company cannot and does not identify expenses, profitability or other financial performance measures by type of marine petroleum product supplied, geographical area served, nature of services performed or on anything other than on a consolidated basis (although the Company is able to segregate revenues on these various bases). As a result, management, including the chief operating decision maker, reviews operating results on a consolidated basis only. Therefore, the Company has determined that it has only one operating segment.

The Company is domiciled in the Marshall Islands but provides no services in that location. It is impracticable to disclose revenues from external customers attributable to individual foreign countries because where the customer is invoiced is not necessarily the country of domicile. In addition, due to the nature of the shipping industry, where services are provided on a worldwide basis, the country of domicile of the customer does not provide useful information regarding the risk that this disclosure is intended to address.

The Company's long-lived assets mainly consist of bunkering tankers, which are positioned across the Company's existing territories and which management, including the chief operating decision maker, reviews on a periodic basis and reposition among the Company's existing or new territories to optimize the vessel per geographical territory ratio. The Company's vessels operate within or outside the territorial waters of each geographical location and, under international law, shipping vessels usually fall under the jurisdiction of the country of the flag they sail. The Company's vessels are not permanently located within particular territorial waters and the Company is free to mobilize all its vessels worldwide at its own discretion.

27.	Sale of Subsidiary:

On February 25, 2013, the Company entered into an agreement with a third-party to sell its ownership interest (55.5%) in Aegean Oil Terminals (Panama). The remaining interest had been previously presented as a non-controlling interest on the consolidated financial statements. Under the terms of the agreement, an amount of $6,318 was paid to the Company. Also, an amount of $3,384 was distributed from Aegean Oil Terminals as dividends to Aegean and an amount of $2,713 to the non-controlling interest in accordance with the ownership interests. The Company's gain from the sale of its ownership interest in Aegean Oil Terminals is included in Gain on sale of subsidiary on the accompanying consolidated statement of income. The net effect of the cash received from the sale and the transfer of cash balances to the owners is reflected in Proceeds from Sale of subsidiary, net of cash surrendered in the investing activities of the consolidated statement of cash flows.

Under a separate agreement with the purchaser, the Company simultaneously agreed to lease from the purchaser fuel storage facilities at the ports of Panama.

28.	Subsequent Events:

Delivery of vessel: On March 23, 2016, the Company took delivery of Umnenga , a 66,895 dwt double hull bunkering tanker built in 1993 to deploy in its service station in South Africa. The vessel was purchased from a third-party seller for $8,625. The purchase was financed by a new credit facility of $13,000, with the remainder of proceeds used to repay the 2008 overdraft facility of $7,000.

Sale of vessel: On April 14, 2016, the Company signed a Memorandum of Agreement to sell its vessel Aegean Champion, a 23,400 dwt double hull bunkering tanker built in 1991, to a third-party purchaser, for a purchase price of $5,700, resulting in a total loss of approximately $1,500. We expect to deliver this vessel to its new owner on May 9, 2016.
