EXPLANATORY NOTE

TBS International plc (the "Company") filed a Form 8-K (the "Form 8-K") on January 31, 2011 to report that it had entered into amendments to its various credit facilities.  In making such filing, the Company omitted certain confidential information from Schedule 5.27 of Exhibit 10.1 (the "Exhibit").  Exhibit 10.1 to the Form 8-K/A filed on March 23, 2011 mistakenly contained certain clerical errors that differed from the executed version of such agreement.  Those errors were the use of January 28, 2011 as the date of execution, instead of the correct date of January 27, 2011, and different page breaks resulting from the edgarization process, which in turn affected the page numbers shown in the table of contensts.  The Exhibit correctly reflects an execution date of January 27, 2011, as well as the same page breaks and table of contents page number cross-references as were contained in the executed version of such agreement.  Accordingly, the Company is filing this amendment to the Form 8-K.  Exhibit 10.1 hereto shall be deemed incorporated by reference into Items 1.01 and 2.03 of the Form 8-K.
