Pursuant to Proposal No. 1 and as set forth in the Companys Amended and Restated Articles of

distribute the funds in the Companys trust account to those shareholders holding shares of the
Companys common stock sold in the Companys initial public offering and to Excel Maritime Carriers
Ltd. with respect to the shares of common stock included in 625,000 of the 1,125,000 of its insider
units. The Company has set April 17, 2009 as the record date for determining the shareholders
entitled to receive liquidating distributions. The Company has instructed its transfer agent,
Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, to close its stock transfer books as of the close of

Pursuant to the Companys plan of dissolution and liquidation, the distribution of

Companys common stock originally issued in its initial public offering (as of the record date of
April 17, 2009), the amount held in trust, together with interest (net of applicable taxes). No
payments will be made with respect to any of the Companys outstanding warrants or to any of the

offering except for Excel Maritime Carriers Ltd. with respect to the shares of common stock
included in 625,000 of the 1,125,000 of its insider units.
