Dear Valued Customer:

Since the aftermath of the incident, OOCL have been closely monitoring the situation and adjusting our Tianjin operations by observing the safety announcements made by the local authorities.   OOCL personnel from our Tianjin office are all safe and no OOCL vessels were impacted by the explosions.   

Some of the terminals at the Port of Tianjin have already reported to be back to normal operations and we have observed only a slight impact to our vessel service schedules.  Restrictions on handling dangerous cargo are still in place following a recent announcement by the authorities, and under the current environment we will continue to work with our customers and related parties on contingency plans.

Yours faithfully
Customer Service Department
OOCL (CHINA) LTD
