(“Navios”) entered into a Third Supplemental Agreement, to amend the Facility Agreement dated November 15, 2007, between Navios and Commerzbank AG and DVB Bank SE, as lenders, and the other parties identified therein. The amendment allowed Navios to borrow an additional $24.0 million to finance the acquisitions of Navios Apollon, Navios Sagittarius and Navios Hyperion, as previously disclosed, as well as amended certain of the covenants and provisions under the facility. The amended facility agreement required prepayment of $12.5 million previously pledged to the lenders, which prepayment took place on January 11, 2010. Among other amendments, the amendment provides that the facility will bear a margin from 1.00% to 1.45% depending on the loan to value ratio. No further principal payments are required to be made until the first quarter of 2012. The Third Supplemental Agreement is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Report and is incorporated herein by reference.
