Plan of Reorganization and Disclosure Statement

On November 14, 2016, the Debtors filed with the Bankruptcy Court
the Joint Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization for International
Shipholding Corporation and its Affiliated Debtors (the Plan of
Reorganization) and the accompanying Disclosure Statement for
Joint Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization for International
Shipholding Corporation and its Affiliated Debtors (the

the compliance of the Disclosure Statement with the Bankruptcy

all current equity interests in the Debtors shall be cancelled and existing equity holders will not receive a distribution on account of their equity interests.

Information contained in the proposed Plan of Reorganization is
subject to change, whether as a result of amendments to the Plan
of Reorganization, third-party actions, or otherwise. The Plan of
Reorganization is subject to acceptance by certain of the Debtors
creditors (as and to the extent required under the Bankruptcy
Code) and confirmation by the Bankruptcy Court. In addition, the
Disclosure Statement is subject to approval by the Bankruptcy
Court. There can be no assurances that the Bankruptcy Court will
approve the Disclosure Statement, that the creditors of the
Debtors will accept the proposed Plan of Reorganization, or that
the Bankruptcy Court will confirm the Plan of Reorganization.

The description of the Plan of Reorganization and the Disclosure
Statement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full
text of the Plan of Reorganization and Disclosure Statement,
copies of which are attached as Exhibit 99.1 and 99.2,
respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated
into this Item 7.01 by reference.

Cautionary Note Regarding the Companys Common Stock

The proposed Plan of Reorganization provides that the Companys
existing common stock will be cancelled and the existing holders
will not receive any distribution. If certain requirements of the
Bankruptcy Code are met, a Chapter 11 plan of reorganization can
be confirmed notwithstanding its rejection by the Companys equity
securityholders and notwithstanding the fact that such equity
securityholders do not receive or retain any property on account
of their equity interests under the plan.

The Company cautions that trading in the Companys common stock
during the pendency of the Chapter 11 case is highly speculative
and poses substantial risks. Even though the Companys common
stock continues to be quoted on the OTC Pink Marketplace, it has
no underlying asset value under the proposed Plan of
Reorganization. The Companys stockholders should not view the
trading activity of its common stock on the OTC Pink Marketplace
or any other market or trading platform as being indicative of
the recovery the Companys stockholders will receive, if any, in
the Chapter 11 case.

Restructuring Support Agreement

On November 18, 2016, the Restructuring Support Agreement (the
Restructuring Support Agreement) between the Debtors and SEACOR
Capital Corp (SEACOR) was approved by the Bankruptcy Court and
became effective and binding on the parties. Under the terms of
the Restructuring Support Agreement, the parties agreed to use
commercially reasonable efforts to implement a financial
restructuring of the Debtors capital structure and financial
obligations within the timeframe and on the terms and conditions
set forth in the Restructuring Support Agreement and attached
term sheet. The Restructuring Support Agreement provides that the
restructuring will be implemented through the Plan of
Reorganization on the terms and conditions described in the
Restructuring Support Agreement and attached term sheet and
otherwise in form and substance acceptable to the Debtors and
SEACOR.

The Restructuring Support Agreement provides that the Debtors
will reimburse SEACOR for reasonable and documented out-of-pocket
fees, including certain legal fees, incurred in connection with
the restructuring and the Restructuring Support Agreement (the
Expense Reimbursement). The order of the Bankruptcy Court
approving the entry into the Restructuring Support Agreement
provided that the Expense Reimbursement may not exceed $1 million
in the aggregate without the prior consent of the unsecured
creditors committee, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed,
or the Bankruptcy Court.

The Restructuring Support Agreement may be terminated by the
Debtors or SEACOR upon the occurrence of certain events. SEACOR
has the right to terminate the Restructuring Support Agreement
if, among other things, the Debtors file a plan or related
disclosure statement in the Chapter 11 cases that is materially
inconsistent with the terms of the Restructuring Support
Agreement and attached term sheet and not otherwise in form and
substance acceptable to SEACOR or fail to comply with certain
milestones within the time periods provided in the Restructuring
Support Agreement. The milestones include covenants by the
Debtors to (i) obtain approval by the Bankruptcy Court of a
disclosure statement with respect to the Plan of Reorganization
on or before December 22, 2016, (ii) obtain entry of an order
confirming the Plan of Reorganization on or before February 2,
2017, which must become a final order no later than 14 days from
the date of entry, and (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts
to consummate the Plan of Reorganization as soon as reasonably
practicable after entry of the confirmation order and in no event
later than 90 days after entry of the confirmation order. The
Debtors may terminate the Restructuring Support Agreement if,
among other things, the board of directors of the Company
determines, in good faith after seeking the advice of outside
counsel, that proceeding with the restructuring and pursuit and
confirmation of the Plan of Reorganization would be inconsistent
with the continued exercise of the Debtors fiduciary duties under
applicable law.

Although the Debtors intend to pursue the restructuring in
accordance with the terms set forth in the Restructuring Support
Agreement and attached term sheet, there can be no assurance that
the Debtors will be successful in completing a restructuring or
any other similar transaction on the terms set forth in the
Restructuring Support Agreement and attached term sheet, on
different terms, or at all.

The description of the Restructuring Support Agreement is
qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the
Restructuring Support Agreement, a copy of which is filed as
Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated
into this Item 7.01 by reference.

Cautionary Note

The information contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K
(including the exhibits) is for informational purposes only and
does not constitute an offer to buy, nor a solicitation of an
offer to sell, any securities of the Company, nor does it
constitute a solicitation of a vote or consent from any persons
on the Plan of Reorganization. Securityholders are urged to read
the disclosure materials, including the Disclosure Statement,
because they contain important information regarding the
restructuring.

Monthly Operating Report

On November 15, 2016, the Company filed a Monthly Operating
Report for the month of October 2016 with the Bankruptcy Court.
The Monthly Operating Report is furnished as Exhibit 99.3 to this
Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated into this Item 7.01
by reference.

Cautionary Statement Regarding the Monthly Operating Report

The Company cautions investors and potential investors not to
place undue reliance on the information contained in the Monthly
Operating Report, which was not prepared for the purpose of
providing the basis for an investment decision relating to any of
the securities of the Company. The Monthly Operating Report is
limited in scope, covers a limited time period, and has been
prepared solely for the purpose of complying with the monthly
reporting requirements of the Bankruptcy Court. The Monthly
Operating Report was not audited or reviewed by an independent
registered public accounting firm and was not prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the
United States. The Monthly Operating Report is in a format
prescribed by applicable bankruptcy laws and remains subject to
future adjustment and reconciliation. Therefore, the Monthly
Operating Report does not necessarily contain all information
required in filings to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the Exchange Act), or may present such information
differently from the presentation of information in Exchange Act
reports. There can be no assurance that, from the perspective of
an investor or potential investor in the Companys securities, the
Monthly Operating Report is complete. The Monthly Operating
Report also contains information for periods which are shorter or
otherwise different from those required in Exchange Act reports,
and such information might not be indicative of the Companys
financial condition or operating results for the period that
would be reflected in the Companys financial statements or in its
Exchange Act reports. Results set forth in the Monthly Operating
Report should not be viewed as indicative of future results.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements and information included herein may constitute
forward-looking statements, as such term is defined in Section
21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, relating
to future events. Such statements are only predictions and
involve risks and uncertainties, resulting in the possibility
that actual events will differ materially from such predictions
as a result of certain risk factors. Important factors that could
cause actual results to differ materially from those in the
forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the
ability to consummate the sale of the specialty business assets;
the ability to confirm and consummate the Plan of Reorganization;
risks attendant to the Chapter 11 process, including the effects
thereof on the Debtors business and on the interests of various
constituents, the length of time that the Debtors might be
required to operate in Chapter 11 and the continued availability
of operating capital during the pendency of the Chapter 11
proceedings; risks associated with third party motions in any
Chapter 11 case, which may interfere with the ability to confirm
and consummate a plan of reorganization; potential adverse
effects on the Debtors liquidity or results of operations;
increased costs to execute the restructuring; effects on the
market price of the Companys common stock; and the risk factors
and known trends and uncertainties as described in the Companys
Annual Report on Form 10-K. Readers are cautioned not to place
undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only to
managements plans, assumptions and expectations as of the date of
this Current Report on Form 8-K. The Company disclaims any duty
to update or alter any forward-looking statements, except as
required by applicable law.

Exchange Act Reports

The Company has suspended the filing of its regular periodic
reports on Form 10-K and Form 10-Q with the SEC. The Company,
however, intends to furnish copies of the Monthly Operating
Reports that are required to be submitted to the Bankruptcy Court
under cover of Current Reports on Form 8-K and to continue to
file Forms 8-K disclosing material developments concerning the
Company.
