Other Events
           This Current Report on Form 6-K amends and replaces the Current Report on Form 6-K filed by Oceanaut, Inc., a Marshall Islands corporation, on April 6, 2009 (SEC File No. 001-33336):
     On April 6, 2009, Oceanaut, Inc. (the “ Company ”) held a previously disclosed special meeting of its shareholders to consider and vote upon: the dissolution of the Company and the Plan of Liquidation for the Company ( Proposal 1 ”); and an adjournment of the shareholder meeting in the event the Company needed to solicit additional proxies if there are not sufficient votes at the originally scheduled time of the special meeting to approve Proposal 1 (“P roposal 2 ”). The voting results for each proposal is as follows:
    Proposal 1 — To approve the dissolution of the Company and the Plan of Liquidation. Of the 19,800,700 votes cast by the shareholders on the proposal at the special meeting, 19,760,261 votes were cast in favor of the proposal, 2,000 votes were cast against the proposal and 38,439 votes were cast in abstention.
 
    Proposal 2 — To permit the Company’s board of directors, in its discretion, to adjourn or postpone the special meeting if necessary for further solicitation of proxies if there are not sufficient votes at the originally scheduled time of the special meeting to approve Proposal 1. Of the 19,800,700 votes cast by the shareholders on the proposal at the special meeting, 18,649,061 votes were cast in favor of the proposal, 1,113,200 votes were cast against the proposal and 38,439 votes were cast in abstention.
          In accordance with Proposal 1 and as set forth in the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation, the officers of the Company will proceed to take action to dissolve the Company and distribute the funds in the Company’s trust account to those shareholders holding shares of the Company’s common stock sold in the Company’s 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 instructed its transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, to close its stock transfer books as of the close of business on April 13, 2009 and the NYSE AMEX will suspend trading. The distributions are expected to be made on or about April 14, 2009.
          As a result, the Company expects to liquidate the amounts held in its trust account, which consist of the proceeds from the Company’s initial public offering and accrued interest (net of applicable taxes). Payable upon presentation, liquidating distributions of approximately $8.26 per share of common stock will be made to holders of shares of common stock issued in the Company’s 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. No payments will be made with respect to any of the Company’s outstanding warrants or to any of the Company’s initial shareholders with respect to the shares owned by them prior to the initial public 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).
          The Company will file a Certificate of Termination of Registration on Form 15 with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the purpose of deregistering its securities under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. As a result, the Company will no longer be a public reporting company and its securities will cease trading on the NYSE AMEX.

 


 

     On April 6, 2009, the Company filed a press release announcing that its shareholders voted to approve the dissolution of the Company and the Plan of Liquidation. The press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
