Asia Europe Trade - Rate Restoration

Dear Valued Customers,

The ocean freight rate for Asia Europe Trade continues to be below the required level to cover
basic operating costs for a prolonged period.  Considering the need to provide sustainable services
for the long term, we are now announcing a revenue restoration program .

With effect from August 1, 2012, freight rates for westbound traffic from Asia to Europe will be
increased by USD300 per TEU.  It covers shipment from the Far East (including Japan) , India
Sub-Con and Middle East to North Europe, the Mediterranean and the Black Sea.

For further information, please kindly contact our local Sales Representatives.

Thank You for your understanding and continued support to OOCL.
