Euroseas Ltd. Announces Agreement to Purchase Containership Expanding Fleet to 10 Vessels



Maroussi, Athens, Greece, March 22, 2007 - Euroseas Ltd. (NASDAQ: ESEA), an owner and operator of drybulk carriers, container ship and multipurpose vessels and provider of seaborne transportation for dry bulk and containerized cargoes, announced today that it has signed a Memorandum of Agreement to purchase the M/V Bitre Ritscher, a 1,452 teu containership built in 1995 in Germany for $19.5 million.  The vessel is scheduled to be delivered to Euroseas during the period of April 10-13, 2007, at the sellers’ option.  It will be financed partly by bank debt. The vessel has been secured with recently concluded one-year period charter for USD 13,450 per day.


Aristides Pittas, Chairman and CEO of Euroseas commented: "We are pleased to announce the acquisition of the M/V Biter Ritscher. Since we completed our public follow-on offering in February 2007, we have acquired two vessels in line with our investment strategy of purchasing second hand dry cargo vessels in the drybulk, container and multipurpose sectors. We look forward to continuing our fleet expansion by purchasing additional vessels that we believe maximize the returns on our capital invested.”
