Harley Marine Services A Full Service Marine Transportation Company

As Harley Marine Services continues to grow, opportunities to enter new markets and business developments emerge. Right now, the most exciting project Harley Marine has embarked upon is building articulated tugs and barges (ATB) to service a long-time, loyal customer. An articulated tug and barge combines the benefits of traditional towing methods and that of a small tanker. With an articulated unit, the stern of the barge is built with a specially designed notch so that a bow of a tugboat can easily fit in place with a connection system. The combined unit provides better maneuverability and steering capabilities while allowing safer and more efficient transportation. Compared to a traditional towed barge, an ATB has higher average speeds and can connect and disconnect at departures and arrivals faster. Additionally, both pieces can function independently like a traditional tug and barge. After a market study and extensive research, Harley Marine Services has partnered with Zidell Marine Corporation of Portland, Oregon and Conrad Industries of Morgan City, Louisiana to build the first ATB in the fleet. The barge portion of the ATB unit is a double hull barge with an overall hull length of 422' 3", a molded beam of 76' 8" and a depth amidships of 27' 10". She will have a carrying capacity of 80,000 barrels and will be paired with a 4,070 horsepower twin-screw tug. The tug will have an overall length of 116', a molded beam of 36' and a depth of 16' 9". The barge will be named DR. ROBERT J. BEALL, after a remarkable doctor and President & CEO of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. Dr. Beall is committed to finding a cure for cystic fibrosis and has been a leader in the fight for 30 plus years. And the tug will be named EMERY ZIDELL, who founded Zidell Marine Corporation

2

and is father to Jay Zidell, current president of the company. Emery was a dear friend and role model for Harley and Lela Franco and supporter of Harley Marine Services. Emery was a generous, philanthropic man and included the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation in his charitable giving. Harley Marine is honored to name these vessels after such significant stewards of the community, this ATB will shine bright in the fleet. The ATB will allow Harley Marine to provide better coastal petroleum transportation services by expediting delivery and will provide better reliability in adverse weather conditions. The purpose-built ATB will not only provide faster delivery speeds, but will allow Harley Marine to utilize less fuel on coastal deliveries, reducing the company’s overall carbon footprint. Utilizing an ATB for longer voyages gives the vessel crew safe and secure access to the barge and cargo tanks during transportation. The ATB will be built with the most technically and environmental friendly equipment available so that Harley Marine can continue to provide a safe, responsible, reliable and efficient service to its customers. Harley Marine expects the ATB to enter service at the end of 2014 and will join the Olympic Tug & Barge fleet based in Seattle, Washington. "We are eager to take delivery of our first ATB," states Harley Franco, Chairman and CEO of Harley Marine Services. "Starting a new delivery method proves our willingness to adapt to a changing market and provide our customers with a service tailored to meet their growing needs." As a leader in the industry, Harley Marine Services considers all new business opportunities and will work to provide the best available marine transportation while protecting the environment. Future plans may include building more ATB's to meet the growing demand of coastal petroleum transportation services.

HMS WELLNESS February is American Heart Month & Vision Awareness Month

Healthy Living, Healthy Vision

Take Care of Yourself!

Good health is an important part of good vision. The healthier you are, the better chance you have of avoiding risks to your eyes. You can lower your risk of eye disease and vision loss if you: Avoid Smoking Quitting smoking can have many good effects on your health. Avoiding smoking can also protect the health of your eyes. By quitting smoking, you can help to possibly reduce your risk of developing several different types of eye diseases. Quitting smoking may reduce your risk of developing:

• Age-related Macular Degeneration

• Cataracts

• Glaucoma

Quitting smoking will also reduce your risk of developing diabetic retinopathy if you are diabetic. Eat Healthy Foods Lifelong good nutrition may lower your risk of some eye diseases. By eating a healthy, balanced diet, you will have a better chance of staying healthy and keeping your eyes healthy. A lifetime diet rich in certain dark green vegetables, such as spinach and kale, may reduce your risk of getting AMD. By eating healthy foods, you will lower your risk of developing other diseases, such as diabetes, which can lead to diabetic eye disease. Diabetes is also a risk factor for developing glaucoma.

2

Stay Active Staying active is part of a healthy lifestyle that can improve your overall health. Exercising regularly can reduce your risk of developing problems that can lead to eye disease. Control Your Blood Pressure Controlling your blood pressure is not just a good idea for your heart. It is also a good idea for protecting your eyesight. High blood pressure can increase your risk for glaucoma. It may also increase your risk for diabetic retinopathy if you have diabetes. Protect Your Eyes from the Sun You already know that you need to wear sunscreen to protect your skin from ultraviolet (UV) rays when you are outdoors. But do you know that you also need to wear protective sunglasses to protect your eyes from those same UV rays? Source: http://www.preventblindness.org/healthy-living-healthy-vision

HMS WELLNESS February is American Heart Month & Vision Awareness Month Eat Better Why Eat Better? A healthy diet is one of your best weapons for fighting cardiovascular disease. When you eat a heart-healthy diet (foods low in saturated and trans fat, cholesterol, sodium and added sugars, and foods high in whole grain fiber, lean protein, and a variety of colorful fruits and vegetables) you improve your chances for feeling good and staying healthy– for life! However, an alarmingly high number of us are not making healthy food choices. Recent studies show that more than 90% of us fail to consistently eat a heart-healthy diet. Our poor eating habits mean more of us have risk factors for heart disease, stroke, diabetes and obesity. How Does Better Eating Affect My Health? Let’s face it, you can’t build a healthy body on a diet of hamburgers and french fries. If you are frequently skipping out on veggies, fruit, low-fat dairy, fiber-rich whole grains, and lean meats including fish, your body is missing the basic building blocks for a healthy life. Healthy foods are the fuel our bodies use to make new cells and create the energy we need to thrive and fight diseases. What Can I Do to Eat Better? Stock your kitchen with healthy food Healthy eating requires planning, but a little bit of thought goes a long way toward a better life. Buy less junk and more produce. The American Heart Association recommends that you eat a wide variety of nutritious foods daily from each of the basic food groups. To get the nutrients you need, choose foods like vegetables, fruits, fiber-rich whole-grain breads and cereals and fat-free or low-fat dairy products most often. Check out our heart-healthy recipes and nutrition information. Track what you eat! For a few days, keep a journal or use an online food tracker. This habit helps you see where you need to improve your choices. Eat vegetables and fruits. They are high in vitamins, minerals and fiber — and they’re low in calories. Eating a variety of deeply colored fruits and vegetables may help you control

2

your weight and your blood pressure. Eat unrefined fiber-rich whole-grain foods. A diet rich in fiber can help promote weight loss because fiber keeps you feeling fuller longer so you eat less. It can also help lower your blood cholesterol. Eat fish at least twice a week. Recent research shows that eating (2) 3.5 oz. servings of oily fish per week containing omega-3 fatty acids (salmon, trout, and herring) may help lower your risk of death from coronary artery disease. For additional protein, choose skinless lean meats and poultry and prepare them without adding saturated and trans fat. Select fat-free, 1 percent fat, and low-fat dairy products. Cut back on saturated and trans fats, cholesterol and added sugars. Cut down on foods containing partially hydrogenated vegetable oils to reduce trans fat in your diet. Aim to eat less than 300 milligrams of cholesterol each day. Choose and prepare foods with little or no salt. Aim to eat less than 1500 milligrams of sodium per day. Limiting sugary drinks to no more than 36 oz. per week is a great way to reduce added sugars in your diet. Savor new flavors! It may take a bit of adjustment to learn to enjoy a heart-healthy diet, but those who make the switch can find plenty of nutritious choices that are every bit as tasty. Many switchers will tell you that greasy fast-food choices no longer seem appealing. Source: http://mylifecheck.heart.org/Multitab.aspx?NavID=10&CultureCode=en-US

Strolling through the average supermarket,

shoppers find literally hundreds (if not

thousands) of items to make their lives easier.

Individually wrapped snack cakes, plastic

baggies to store sandwiches for lunch,

unbreakable soda bottles, and disposable razors,

diapers, and shampoo bottles. Unless

specifically requested, even the bags we use to

carry home our goods are often plastic.

To humans, these are items of comfort, if not

necessity. But to marine animals, they can be a

floating minefield. Did you know that over 2

million plastic bottles are used every 5 minutes

in the U.S.? As little as 10% of these plastic

bottles are recycled while the rest end up in

landfills or in our oceans. Not to mention, 14

billion pounds of trash are dumped into the

ocean each year and in the North Pacific there is a

garbage patch twice the size of Texas where 100

million marine mammals and turtles are killed

each year by plastic in the ocean. Not only is our

marine life being affected, but an estimated 70%

of North Pacific sea birds eat too much plastic

trash and starve to death. Many don’t realize the

negative aspect that these containers have on our

environment.

What can you do to help? It’s simple, try and

2

reduce the amount of plastic water bottles you

purchase. A great alternative is a reusable water

bottle filled with filtered tap water. If each person in

the U.S. replaced their disposable bottled water with

a reusable container filled with tap water, billions of

plastic receptacles would be kept out of the ocean.

Not only will this help save the ocean but it will also

help save you money.

MENTORING SPOTLIGHT Research on why people have become masterful in a niche – professions, trades, sports, science and the arts, highlights the importance of having mentors. Talk to any great software engineer, project manager, athlete or artist and they will tell you that their mentor(s) made the difference. We’ve all heard the quote that “great scientists stand on the shoulders of those who preceded them.” Mentor/mentee partnerships were the earliest forms of learning and professional development. Today having multiple mentors is a necessity because so much is changing around us. No one person can coach others in all the domains of a complex workplace. Mentors — who may be older or younger than you — are those who know more about a certain area of expertise than you do. Mentoring is a learning and development partnership between a professional with in-depth experience and knowledge in a specific area and a protégé seeking learning and coaching in the same area.

Finding a mentor is up to you. Look around and determine the different people in your region you might turn to for extra coaching and support. Once you find someone you think can help, look for ways you can help him/her as well. Mentor/mentee partnerships work best when they are two-way streets. Listen generously to what mentors need. You will find it easier to ask them for what you need.

SAFETY INCENTIVE PROGRAM

Winning Tip: By: Joseph Miranda, OTB When going to connect or disconnect any cargo hose or loading arm, be sure you are aware of the particulars of the cargo being transferred. Petroleum products can have many harmful vapors in them, such as H2S and/or benzene. When any harmful vapors are even suspected, be sure to wear your company provided 3M respirator with the correct 6000 series acid gas cartridge. If you do not currently have a respirator or do not know which cartridge to use for your application, then please contact your supervisor and remedy the situation immediately. On December 24, 2013 a fleet directive was issued that all barge personnel are to be clean-shaven to a point that your 3M respirator will make a tight seal. It is also smart to have SCBA’s available for the times when the vapors prove to be beyond the safety threshold and is required by some terminals.

Practical Safety Drills

Many times when safety drills are conducted they are done at the galley table as a discussion of “what if’s”. Although these discussions bring to light some of the situations we might face, they do little to gauge how we would respond in an actual emergency. Practical drills, which simulate an emergency, will let the crew know where crewmembers need work and where they are strong. For instance, by holding an unannounced fire drill, you can see where some people react in such a way that would be harmful or beneficial to the situation and work with that individual to improve the response. One such fire drill could consist of a flashing red light (like a bicycle light) placed in a likely fire area with a sign that describes the fire. Other signs in the area could close off certain exits and entrances. The person who finds the red flashing light will then have to respond as if it was a real fire. When the alarm sounds you can then gauge how the crew responds as a unit to diffuse or minimize the danger. In a real response you want to know that everyone involved will not panic and work to keep themselves, crewmembers and the vessel safe. And, in that order. Another reason to repeat these drills is that repetition will help the response be automatic. If you have reached beside the galley fridge for the fire extinguisher 7 times while drilling then it will be automatic to look by the galley fridge when the range catches fire. A person will become familiar and comfortable with the location of the response equipment aboard his vessel.

SAFETY SPOTLIGHT

How did SOCAL manage to have ZERO

Injuries, Illnesses, Incidents or Spills

for the entire month of December?

Doug Houghton, General Manager - The whole culture has really changed over the past several years. Andre Nault has done a great job of eliminating hazards and getting all of us engaged in thinking Safety at all times. Kelly Moore is constantly communicating Safety and educating the barge crews. Mike Castagnola and the engineers are doing a great job of reducing mechanical issues. Mike Golden and all the captains are constantly discussing ways to run their vessels incident free. One advantage we have is a real seasoned complement of crew both on the barges and the tugs. We have held all employees accountable to follow policies and procedures. The biggest factor that I think has changed our trend is a high moral and a sense of teamwork. The SoCal Team - Tankermen, Engineers, Captains, Shore-side Personnel and Management - all have a sense of pride to be part of the Harley Marine team. I hope we can continue on this path and make 2014 our safest year ever. Kelly Moore, Manager Petroleum Barge Operations - I feel that the whole SoCal Team comes together as one unit to tackle all of the challenges that we are faced with. With the great attitudes and hard work of the entire Team (management and fleet), all working towards the common goal, this has directly resulted in our safety record. We have built relationships and have trust within the fleet.

I think we’ve overcome obstacles, the crews have bought into our safety culture from boots on the ground, Management - Engineering, Operations, Safety, getting out in the fleet and they know that we’re their advocate. Captain Michael Golden, Port Captain - First, I think part of this is that the whole SoCal team is getting better at what they all do. There is better communication and planning to prevent people from being in a rush. All safety meetings and drills that are generated from the boats through the Wheelhouse Management System are reviewed and replied to. The seriousness, repercussions and final outcome of accidents and injuries to our company have become more aware to the employees from the management team. There is in-depth follow-up and conclusion of accidents/injuries. We review the Safety Stand Downs and Monthly Safety packets, which include reviews of company-wide lessons learned, near misses and accidents/injuries. Maintenance and repair issues are getting done to keep equipment safe and operable to standard. My feeling is that the existing employees have all been doing a great job at increasing the bar to a higher standard. It is a combined effort throughout the SoCal Team.

Retirement Planning – Fourth Quarter 2013 Market Commentary Heading into last year, investors viewed 2013 with caution – if not downright pessimism. Europe was still struggling with its government spending and debt troubles. China, whose meteoric rise had accounted for much of the world’s growth over the preceding decade, was slumping. The US recovery continued to be hampered by skeptical employers who were reluctant to hire and a Congress that only added to the uncertainty. In spite of it all, both domestic and international investment markets generated strong gains for the year 2013. Domestic equity markets not only reached all-time highs, they blew right past them. The S&P 500 Index (the benchmark for large company stock performance) had its best year since 1997, while the Russell 2000 Index (the benchmark for small company stock performance) enjoyed the fourth best year in its history – up close to 40%. Many stock performance indices were up over 30% for the year. Such strong performance in the face of a relatively weak economy has many people wondering how this can happen. One major factor, and one of the oldest truisms on Wall Street is “Don’t fight the Fed!” With the Federal Reserve keeping interest rates low in order to encourage borrowing, support housing, and stimulate investment – investors needed to buy stocks in order to generate any reasonable return on investment. Skeptics who focused on the potential downside risks of “easy money” missed out on an incredible year. The key questions now are whether the real economy can now catch up to investment markets, and whether investment markets can keep their gains while the Fed decreases the stimulus program. Another important factor and lesson for retirement plan investors, is that markets are very unpredictable in the short term. Few pundits predicted the banner year that we experienced in 2013. More often than not, basing investment strategy on short-term factors is a losing proposition. This is why we always recommend a well-diversified, long-term approach. It’s a lesson that is easy to forget when seemingly obvious troubles lurk on the horizon. Investment Market Results Domestic stocks ended the year on a tear. The S&P 500 index gained 10.5% for the quarter, and 32.4% for the year. International markets also did well for both the quarter and year, although they could not keep up with a hot US market. The MSCI EAFE (Europe Asia Far East) Index returned 5.75% for the quarter and 23.29% for the year. Bond/fixed income investments lost value as the Fed began reducing stimulus in December. For the year, treasury bonds were down 2.7% and corporate bonds decreased by 1.5%. Only high-yield bonds (aka junk bonds) had a positive return for the year, up 7.4%.
