Subsequent expenditures for conversions and major improvements are also capitalized when they appreciably extend the life, increase the earning capacity or improve the efficiency or safety of the vessels; otherwise these amounts are charged to expense as incurred. Vessels under construction are presented at cost, which includes shipyard installment payments and other vessel costs incurred during the construction period that are directly attributable to the construction of the vessels, including borrowing costs incurred during the construction period.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0&quot;&gt;Expenditures for vessel repair and maintenance are charged against income in the period incurred.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Depreciation&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0&quot;&gt;Depreciation is calculated on a straight line basis over the estimated useful life of the vessel with reference to the cost of the vessel, and estimated scrap value. Remaining useful lives of vessels are periodically reviewed and revised to recognize changes in conditions and such revisions, if any, are recognized over current and future periods. The Company estimates that its vessels have a useful life of 25 years from the completion of its construction (see Note 5).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Assets Held for Sale&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0&quot;&gt;The Company may dispose of certain of its vessels when suitable opportunities occur, including prior to the end of their useful lives.

A voyage is deemed to commence upon the later of the completion of discharge of the vessel&amp;#x2019;s previous cargo or the time it receives a contract that is not cancelable and is deemed to end upon the completion of discharge of the current cargo. A time charter contract is deemed to commence from the time of the delivery of the vessel to an agreed port and is deemed to end upon the re-delivery of the vessel at an agreed port.

In discounting the charter rate differences in future periods, the Company uses its Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) adjusted to account for the credit quality of the charterer. The capitalized above-market (assets) and below-market (liabilities) charters are amortized as a reduction and increase, respectively, to voyage revenues over the remaining term of the charter.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Stock incentive plan awards&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0&quot;&gt;Share-based compensation represents vested and non-vested restricted shares granted to employees and directors as well as to non-employees and are included in &amp;#x201c;Other general and administrative expenses&amp;#x201d; in the &amp;#x201c;Consolidated statements of operations.&amp;#x201d; The shares to employees and directors are measured at their fair value equal to the market value of the Company&apos;s common stock on the grant date.

The shares that contain a time-based service vesting condition are considered non-vested shares on the grant date and the total fair value of such shares is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. In addition, non-vested awards granted to non-employees are recognized on a straight-line basis over the remaining period service is provided.

When the estimate of future undiscounted cash flows, excluding interest charges, expected to be generated by the use of the asset is less than its carrying amount, the Company evaluates the asset for an impairment loss. Measurement of the impairment loss is based on the fair value of the asset. In this respect, management regularly reviews the carrying amount of the vessels in connection with the estimated recoverable amount for each of the Company&amp;#x2019;s vessels.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Other investments &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0&quot;&gt;Investments over which the Company believes it does not exercise any influence are carried at the book value and are adjusted to recognize accrued income and are adjusted for impairment whenever facts and circumstances determine that they are not recoverable.

Although revenue can be identified for these types of charters, management cannot and does not identify expenses, profitability or other financial information for these charters. As a result, management, including the chief operating decision maker, reviews operating results solely by revenue per day and operating results of the fleet and thus the Company has determined that it operates under one reporting segment. Furthermore, when the Company charters a vessel to a charterer, the charterer is free to trade the vessel worldwide and, as a result, the disclosure of geographical information is impracticable.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt 0&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Recent accounting pronouncements&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; text-transform: uppercase; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0in; margin: 0pt 0&quot;&gt;&lt;font style=&quot;text-transform: none&quot;&gt;In May, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (&amp;#x201c;FASB&amp;#x201d;) issued Accounting Standard Update (&amp;#x201c;ASU&amp;#x201d;) No 2014-09, Revenue From Contracts With Customers, which outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. ASU 2015-14 states the following regarding application that should be considered as part of the disclosure requirements under SAB Topic 11M: An entity shall apply one of the following two methods: (i).retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented in accordance with the guidance on accounting changes in ASC&amp;nbsp; 250-10-45-5 through 45-10 (retrospective method) or (ii) retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized at the date of initial application (cumulative effect transition method). This standard is effective for public entities with reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early application is permitted only as of annual reporting periods (including interim reporting periods within those periods) beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company has not yet evaluated the impact, if any, of the adoption of this new standard.&lt;font style=&quot;background-color: yellow&quot;&gt; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; text-transform: uppercase; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0in; margin: 0pt 0&quot;&gt;&lt;font style=&quot;text-transform: none&quot;&gt;In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, &amp;#x201c;Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity&apos;s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern.&amp;#x201d; This ASU establishes specific guidance to an organization&apos;s management on their responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about the organization&apos;s ability to continue as a going concern.

This standard is effective for public entities with reporting periods beginning after December&amp;nbsp;15, 2015 and should be applied on a retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. The Company&amp;#x2019;s adoption of this standard will result in the &amp;#x201c;Deferred charges, net&amp;#x201d; of $700,606 as of December 31, 2015 to be presented against the related debt liability.&lt;font style=&quot;background-color: yellow&quot;&gt; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; text-transform: uppercase; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0in; margin: 0pt 0&quot;&gt;&lt;font style=&quot;text-transform: none&quot;&gt;In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11,&amp;nbsp;Simplifying&amp;nbsp;the Measurement of Inventory to simplify the measurement of inventory using first-in, first out (FIFO) or average cost method. According to this ASU an entity should measure inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. This update is effective for public entities with reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted.

The standard amends the existing accounting standards for lease accounting and adds additional disclosures about leasing arrangements. &amp;nbsp;The ASU requires lessees to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by most leases, while lessor accounting remains largely unchanged. The new leases standard requires a modified retrospective transition approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after, the date of initial application, with an option to use certain transition relief. This update is effective for public entities with reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted for all entities.

ASU 2015-14 states the following regarding application that should be considered as part of the disclosure requirements under SAB Topic 11M: An entity shall apply one of the following two methods: (i).retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented in accordance with the guidance on accounting changes in ASC&amp;nbsp; 250-10-45-5 through 45-10 (retrospective method) or (ii) retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized at the date of initial application (cumulative effect transition method).

  &lt;/table&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0&quot;&gt;During 2014 the Company acquired one bulk carrier vessel. M/V &amp;#x201c;Eirini P&amp;#x201d; was acquired on May 26, 2014 for a purchase price plus costs required to make the vessel available for use of $21,323,935. In November and December 2015 the Company sold for scrap three of its vessels, M/V Tiger Bridge, M/V Marinos and M/V Despina P, for a net price of $2,728,440, $ 2,090,010 and $2,526,892 respectively. After sales commissions of 4%, which includes the 1% payable to Eurochart, and other sale expenses, the Company recorded a gain of $535,169, a loss of $280,373 and a gain of $206,790, respectively from the sale of the vessels. In December 2015, the Company agreed to sell for scrap M/V Aristides NP for an amount of $2,805,521. The vessel was classified as held for sale, for the year ended December 31, 2015. The Company received a deposit for the sale of $1,122,208 which was classified as &amp;#x201c;Liability for asset held for sale&amp;#x201d; in the &amp;#x201c;Consolidated Balance Sheets&amp;#x201d;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0&quot;&gt;In the fourth quarter of 2013, management reassessed the estimated useful life of its container vessels based on the further decrease in charter rates and the decrease in the age of vessels scrapped including the container vessels the Company scrapped in the second quarter of 2013. Market reports indicated that from 2000 till 2011 the scrapping age of containerships was close to thirty years while during 2012 and 2013, when charter rates and secondhand values of the containership market remain at the bottom of the market cycle, the average scrapping age of containership carriers scrapped was approximately 24 and 22 years, respectively. Based on the latter data, the Company decided to revise its estimate of the useful life of its containerships from 30 years to 25 years to reflect mid-cycle conditions effective October 1, 2013. The effect of this change of estimate on the depreciation of the Company&apos;s vessels increased depreciation charge by approximately $2.5 million in each of 2014 and 2015 or $0.46 and $0.38 loss per share, basic and diluted for the year ended December 31, 2014 and 2015, respectively.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify&quot;&gt;The Company&apos;s impairment analysis as of December 31, 2014 indicated that the carrying amount of one of its bulk-carriers (M/V Aristides NP) was not recoverable and thus, a non-cash impairment loss of $3.5 million, or $0.64 loss per share basic and diluted, was recorded in its books (please see Note 15). The Company performed the undiscounted cash flow test as of December 31, 2015 and determined the carrying amounts of its vessels not held for sale were recoverable. M/V Aristides NP, held for sale as of December 31, 2015, was written-down to its fair value resulting in a non-cash loss of $1.64 million, or $0.26 loss per share basic and diluted, recorded in its books. These amounts are presented in the &quot;Impairment loss and loss on write-down of vessel held for sale&quot; line in the &quot;Operating Expenses&quot; section of the &quot;Consolidated Statements of Operations&quot;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0&quot;&gt;Vessels with a carrying value of $82.58 million (2014: $111.15 million) have been mortgaged as security for the loans.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</us-gaap:PropertyPlantAndEquipmentDisclosureTextBlock>

An additional fixed management fee (see below) is paid to the Manager for the provision of various management services. Vessel management fees paid to the Manager amounted to $4,891,024, $4,894,559 and $4,151,335 in 2013, 2014 and 2015, respectively. The fixed management fee paid to the Manager amounted to, $1,900,000 and $2,000,000 in 2013, 2014 and 2015, respectively.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0&quot;&gt;The management agreement provides for an annual adjustment of the daily management fee due to inflation to take effect January 1 of each year. Laid-up vessels are billed for half of the daily fee for the period they are laid-up. The Company&amp;#x2019;s Master Management Agreement with the Manager &amp;#x2013; originally effective as of January 1, 2011 and with an initial term of five years until January 1, 2016. The amended and restated Master Management Agreement will automatically be extended after the initial period for an additional five year period unless terminated on or before the 90th day preceding the initial termination date. Pursuant to the Master Management Agreement, each ship owning company has signed &amp;#x2013; and each future ship owning company when a vessel is acquired will sign - with the Manager a management agreement with the rate and term of these agreements set in the Master Management Agreement effective at such time. The new agreement was amended and restated as of January 1, 2012 to reflect a 5% discount of the daily vessel management fee for the period during which the number of the Euroseas owned vessels (including vessels in which Euroseas is a part owner) managed by the Manager is greater than 20 (&amp;#x201c;volume discount&amp;#x201d;); it was further renewed as of January 1, 2014 for a new five year term until January 1, 2019. As of December 31, 2015, there are 11 vessels in the Company&amp;#x2019;s fleet and 11 vessels in the fleet of the Company&amp;#x2019;s Euromar LLC joint venture. Starting January 1, 2013, the management fee was adjusted to 720 Euros per vessel per day in operation and 360 Euros per vessel per day in lay-up before the 5% discount. The fee remained unchanged for the years starting January 1, 2014, January 1, 2015 and January 1, 2016 as well. After the 5% discount, Euroseas pays to the Manager a fee of 685 Euros per vessel per day in operation and 342.5 Euros per vessel per day in lay-up, as the number of vessels wholly or partly owned by Euroseas and managed by the Manager has been in excess of 20. These fees are recorded under &amp;#x201c;Related party management fees&amp;#x201d; in the &amp;#x201c;Consolidated statements of operations&amp;#x201d;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0&quot;&gt;In addition to the vessel management services, the Manager provides management services for the Company&amp;#x2019;s needs as a public company. In 2013, compensation for such services to the Company as a public company was $1,900,000 and at $2,000,000 for 2014 and 2015; the fee was agreed to remain at $2,000,000 for 2016. These amounts are recorded in &amp;#x201c;Other general and administrative expenses&amp;#x201d; in the &amp;#x201c;Consolidated statements of operations.&amp;#x201d;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0&quot;&gt;Amounts due to or from related company represent net disbursements and collections made on behalf of the vessel-owning companies by the Management Company during the normal course of operations for which a right of off-set exists.

Among other things, in order to qualify for this exemption, the company operating the ships must be incorporated in a country, which&lt;b&gt; &lt;/b&gt;grants an equivalent exemption from income taxes to U.S corporations. All the Company&amp;#x2019;s ship-operations subsidiaries satisfy this particular criterion. In addition, more than 50% of the value of the stock must be owned, directly or indirectly, by individuals who are residents as defined in the countries of incorporation or another foreign country that grants an equivalent exemption to U.S corporations, the &amp;#x201c;50% Ownership Test&amp;#x201d;, or, the stock is &amp;#x201c;primarily and regularly traded on an established securities market&amp;#x201d; in our country of organization, in another country that grants an &amp;#x201c;equivalent exemption&amp;#x201d; to United States corporations, or in the United States, the &amp;#x201c;Publicly-Traded Test&amp;#x201d;.

     &lt;td style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;On November 6, 2015 an award of 68,400 non-vested restricted shares under the 2014 Plan, was made to 19 key persons of which 50% will vest on July 1, 2016 and 50% on July 1, 2017; awards to officers and directors amounted to 40,040 shares and the remaining 28,360 shares were awarded to employees of Eurobulk.&lt;br clear=&quot;all&quot; /&gt; &lt;/td&gt;

  &lt;/table&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0&quot;&gt;All non-vested restricted shares are conditional upon the grantee&amp;#x2019;s continued service as an employee of the Company, Eurobulk or as a director until the applicable vesting date. The grantee does not have the right to vote on such non-vested restricted shares until they vest or exercise any right as a shareholder of these shares, however, the non-vested shares will accrue dividends as declared and paid which will be retained by the Company until the shares vest at which time they are payable to the grantee. As non-vested restricted share grantees accrue dividends on awards that are expected to vest, such dividends are charged to retained earnings.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0&quot;&gt;The Company estimates the forfeitures of non-vested restricted shares to be immaterial.

The principal financial liabilities of the Company consist of long-term loans, derivatives including interest rate swaps and accounts payable due to suppliers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Interest rate risk &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0&quot;&gt;The Company enters into interest rate swap contracts as economic hedges to manage its exposure to variability in its floating rate long term debt. Under the terms of the interest rate swaps the Company and the bank agreed to exchange, at specified intervals the difference between a paying fixed rate and receiving floating rate interest amount calculated by reference to the agreed principal amounts and maturities. Interest rate swaps allow the Company to convert long-term borrowings issued at floating rates into equivalent fixed rates. Even though the interest rate swaps were entered into for economic hedging purposes, the derivatives described below (see Note 16) do not qualify for hedge accounting, under the guidance relating to &lt;i&gt;Derivatives and Hedging&lt;/i&gt;, as the Company does not have currently written contemporaneous documentation identifying the risk being hedged and, both on a prospective and retrospective basis, performing an effectiveness test to support that the hedging relationship is highly effective. Consequently, the Company recognizes the change in fair value of these derivatives in the &amp;#x201c;Loss on derivatives, net&amp;#x201d; in the &amp;#x201c;Consolidated statements of operations.&amp;#x201d; As of December 31, 2015, the Company had three open swap contracts for a notional amount of $30.0 million.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: -42.55pt; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 42.55pt&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Concentration of credit risk&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0&quot;&gt;Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to significant concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and trade accounts receivable. The Company places its temporary cash investments, consisting mostly of deposits, with high credit qualified financial institutions. The Company performs periodic evaluation of the relative credit standing of these financial institutions that are considered in the Company&amp;#x2019;s investment strategy. The Company limits its credit risk with accounts receivable by performing ongoing credit evaluations of its customers&amp;#x2019; financial condition and generally does not require collateral for its accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2015, there were no customers with trade accounts receivable accounting for more than 10% of the customer&amp;#x2019;s 2015 hire revenues.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: -42.55pt; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 42.55pt&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Fair value of financial instruments&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0&quot;&gt;The Company follows guidance relating to &amp;#x201c;Fair value measurements&amp;#x201d;, which establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosure about fair value measurements.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;This statement enables the reader of the financial statements to assess the inputs used to develop those measurements by establishing a hierarchy for ranking the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. The statement requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value will be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0&quot;&gt;Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0&quot;&gt;Level 2: Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0&quot;&gt;Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0&quot;&gt;The fair value of the Company&amp;#x2019;s interest rate swap agreements is determined using a discounted cash flow approach based on market-based LIBOR swap rates.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;LIBOR swap rates are observable at commonly quoted intervals for the full terms of the swaps and therefore are considered Level 2 items. As of December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2015 no fair value measurements for assets or liabilities under Level 3 were recognized in the Company&amp;#x2019;s consolidated financial statements.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;table cellpadding=&quot;0&quot; cellspacing=&quot;0&quot; style=&quot;border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%&quot;&gt;

The review indicated that such carrying amount was not recoverable for one of the Company&amp;#x2019;s vessels; the M/V Aristides NP. The Company recognized the total impairment losses of $3.5 million in 2014 which was included in the &amp;#x201c;Consolidated statements of operations&amp;#x201d; for the period. On December 21, 2015 the Company agreed to sell M/V Aristides NP for scrap. The vessel was sold for a net price of $2,671,811. The vessel was delivered to her new owners on January 16, 2016. As of December 31, 2015 the vessel was classified as &amp;#x201c;Held for Sale&amp;#x201d;. This resulted in a write-down of $1,641,885 representing the difference between the vessel&amp;#x2019;s carrying value and its fair value. This amount was included in the &amp;#x201c;Consolidated statements of operations&amp;#x201d; for the period.

The fair value of the long term borrowings are estimated based on current interest rates offered to the Company for similar loans. LIBOR rates are observable at commonly quoted intervals for the full terms of the loans and hence fair value of the long-term bank loans are considered Level 2 items in accordance with the fair value hierarchy due to their variable interest rate, being the LIBOR.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 0.7pt&quot;&gt;The fair value of the Company&amp;#x2019;s &amp;#x201c;Other investment&amp;#x201d; approximates its carrying value (see Note 17 &amp;#x2013; &amp;#x201c;Investment in Joint Venture and Other Investment&amp;#x201d;) and is considered a Level 3 item.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 0.7pt&quot;&gt;The key input that determines the fair value of the Company&amp;#x2019;s &amp;#x201c;Other investment&amp;#x201d; is the required rate of return for preferred equity investments in investment opportunities of similar risk which is not observable and hence is considered a level 3 item. The Company considers the initial dividend rate of 19% p.a. as the appropriate rate for its fair value calculation and monitors market conditions for similar investment and other possible developments specific to its investment that might provide indications for changes in the required rate of return it uses in its fair value measurement.

After March 25, 2012, Eton Park and Rh&amp;ocirc;ne have the option to convert part or all of their holdings in the Company&amp;#x2019;s stock at a conversion ratio based on the ratio of the net asset market values of the Company and the Joint Venture, or the ratio of the Company&amp;#x2019;s market value multiplied by 0.925 and the net asset market value of the Joint Venture whichever is to the advantage of the Company. No conversion can take place if any of the net asset market values are negative. Management of the vessels and various administrative services pertaining to the vessels are performed by the Manager and its affiliates; strategic, financial and reporting services are provided by Euroseas.

The Company is entitled to a &amp;#x201c;payment-in-kind&amp;#x201d; dividend at a rate of 19% per year compounded annually from the date of issuance. Euromar LLC can return any undistributed Escrowed Funds to the Company after the second anniversary of the agreement while after the fifth anniversary any undistributed Escrowed Funds will be returned to the Company and Preferred Units will be issued by Euromar LLC for any accrued dividends at the time.

Euromar LLC is in negotiations with the banks and expects to successfully restructure its credit facilities.&lt;font style=&quot;font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt&quot;&gt; &lt;/font&gt;If Euromar does not succeed in refinancing these payments, it might be forced to liquidate part or all of its assets in order to meet its debt obligations. If such liquidation were to occur at present market values which are below the carrying amounts of Euromar LLC&amp;#x2019;s vessels, it would result in Euromar recording losses on the sale of the vessels. In such a case, our equity investment in Euromar would suffer a partial or complete loss. Furthermore, if the proceeds from the sale of the vessels are not sufficient to repay both Euromar&amp;#x2019;s debt obligations and our preferred investment in Euromar LLC, our preferred investment would also incur a partial or complete loss.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</us-gaap:EquityMethodInvestmentsDisclosureTextBlock>

  &lt;/table&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10pt; text-align: justify; margin: 0pt 0&quot;&gt;On January 27, 2014, the Company entered into an agreement to sell 25,000 shares of its Series B Convertible Perpetual Preferred Shares (&quot;Series B Preferred Shares&quot;) to a fund managed by Tennenbaum Capital Partners, LLC (&quot;TCP&quot;) and 5,700 shares to Preferred Friends Investment Company Inc, an affiliate of the Company, for total net proceeds of approximately $29 million. The redemption amount of the Company&amp;#x2019;s Series B Preferred Shares is $1,000 per share. The Company used the proceeds for the acquisition of vessels and general corporate purposes. The Series B Preferred Shares will pay dividends (in cash or in-kind at the option of the Company, subject to certain exceptions) during the first five years at a rate of 0% or 5%, depending on the trading price of the Company&apos;s common stock. In addition, if a cash dividend is paid on the Company&apos;s common stock during such time, then if the dividend paid on the Series B Preferred Shares is 5%, the holders of Series B Preferred Shares shall receive such dividend in cash and shall also receive an additional cash dividend in an amount equal to 40% of the common stock dividend it would have received on an as-converted basis. If, however, the dividend on the Series B Preferred Shares is 0%, then the holders of Series B Preferred Shares shall receive a cash dividend equal to the greater of 100% of the common stock dividend it would have received on an as-converted basis and 5%. If a cash dividend is paid on the Company&apos;s common stock after the first five years, the holders of Series B Preferred Shares shall receive an additional cash dividend in an amount equal to 40% of the common stock dividend it would have received on an as-converted basis. The dividend rate will increase to 12% in years six and seven and to 14% thereafter. The Series B Preferred Shares can be converted at the option of their holders at any time, and at the option of the Company only if certain share price and liquidity milestones are met. Each Series B Preferred Share is convertible into common stock at a conversion price of $12.25 (as adjusted in September 2015 following the shareholders&amp;#x2019; rights offering of the Company) subject to further adjustment for certain events. The Series B Preferred Shares are redeemable in cash by the Company at any time after the fifth anniversary of the original issue date. Holders of the Series B Preferred Shares may require the Company to redeem their shares only upon the occurrence of certain corporate events.
