The international shipping income exclusion exempts 100% of shipping income from taxation. Net income before income taxes includes both shipping and non-shipping income. After an allocation of deductible indirect costs between shipping and non-shipping income, the exclusion of the exempt shipping income from taxable income resulted in a loss for income tax purposes related to non-exempt income.

| (2) |
The tax benefit associated with U.S.-source shipping income exempt under Section 883 was approximately $60 million.
