Capital Product Partners

These port calls represented approximately 0.5% of the total port calls made by all the vessels owned by CPLP in 2017. They each occurred while the respective vessel was chartered out to an unaffiliated charterer or sub-charterer under the instructions of such charterer or sub-charterer. With respect to the vessels chartered out to PCTC, as the vessel owner, we earned revenues at the agreed daily charter rates from PCTC under the applicable time charters. PCTC in turn earned revenues at the agreed freight or hire rate from the sub-charterers that employed the vessels. CPLP’s aggregate revenue attributable to the number of days that our vessels under time charters remained in ports in Iran or Sudan and the port call made by the M/T Aiolos in Sudan described above was approximately $1.5 million, representing approximately 0.6% of our total revenues during the year ended December 31, 2017. We do not attribute profits to specific voyages.

Stated in its 2016 SEC report “Of the vessels in our fleet, one vessel made one port call to Iran, which represented approximately 0.2% of our total calls in 2015. In addition, a vessel owned by our affiliate, Capital Maritime, made one port call to Iran. As part of the voyage charter arrangements between our affiliate Capital Maritime and third-party charterers, Capital Maritime or its manager may pay fees and expenses related to the port calls made in Iran through a private third-party agent in Iran appointed by the third-party charterer, which in 2015 did not include any payments for refueling or bunkers for the vessels making such port calls.”  (https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1392326/000119312516467071/d140476d20f.htm)

According to its Annual Report filed with the SEC for fiscal year 2018: "In March 2018, one vessel owned by us and chartered under a time charter party to Product & Crude Tanker Chartering Inc. (“PCTC”), a subsidiary of Capital Maritime, our sponsor, made a port call to Iran to load crude oil. This port call represented less than 0.05% of the total port calls made by all our vessels in 2018. It occurred while the vessel was chartered out to an unaffiliated sub-charterer, under the instructions of such sub-charterer. As the vessel owner, we earned revenues at the agreed daily charter rate from PCTC under the applicable time charter. PCTC in turn earned revenues at the agreed freight rate from the sub-charterer that employed the vessel. CPLP’s aggregate revenue attributable to the number of days that our vessel under time charter remained in a port in Iran was approximately $0.1 million, representing less than 0.04% of our total revenues during the year ended December 31, 2018. This vessel was part of the Tanker Business spun-off in March 2019. In addition, in February 2018, the vessel M/T Amore Mio II, which we sold in October 2018, made a port call to Iran to load crude oil while employed under a voyage charter to an unaffiliated third party. This port call represented less than 0.05% of the total port calls made by all the vessels owned by CPLP in 2018. The aggregate revenue attributable to this voyage was approximately $1.5 million, representing approximately 0.5% of our total revenues during the year ended December 31, 2018. We do not attribute profits to specific voyages. (https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1392326/000119312519122567/d736127d20f.htm)

Other than as described above, no vessel owned or chartered by Capital Maritime made any port calls to countries targeted by economic sanctions during 2018.

As part of the voyage charter arrangements between us and third-party charterers or sub-charterers, we or our Manager may pay fees and expenses related to the port calls made in Iran through a private third-party agent in Iran appointed by the third-party charterer or sub-charterer. In 2018, no such payments were made for re-fueling or bunkers for the vessels making such port calls. We believe the port calls to Iran were made in full compliance with applicable economic sanctions laws and regulations, including those of the United States, the European Union and other relevant jurisdictions. See also “Item 4B: Business Overview—Regulation” for information on the port calls made by certain our vessels and those of our affiliates to Iran."

Further, in 2017, vessels owned or chartered-in by CMTC (including the vessels chartered-in from CPLP by PCTC under time charters as described above) made the following port calls to Iran and Sudan: 12 port calls to Iran to load crude oil, five port calls to Iran to discharge vegetable oils, one port call to Sudan to load molasses and two port calls to Sudan to discharge palm and vegetable oils.

These port calls represented 1.7% of the total port calls made by all the vessels owned or chartered-in by CMTC in 2017. They each occurred while the respective vessel was chartered out to an unaffiliated charterer or sub-charterer under the instructions of such charterer or sub-charterer. The aggregate revenue attributable to the number of days that the vessels under time charters remained in ports in Iran or Sudan and port calls in Iran and Sudan made by vessels under voyage charters to unaffiliated charterers or sub-charterers was approximately $35.2 million, representing approximately 10.0% of CMTC’s total revenues during the year ended December 31, 2017. CMTC does not attribute profits to specific voyages.
