Saxena White P.A. Has Filed a Securities Fraud Class Action Suit Against Britannia Bulk Holdings Inc. in the Southern District of New York


BOCA RATON, FL--(Marketwire - November 20, 2008) - Notice is hereby given that Saxena White P.A. has filed suit on behalf of shareholders Britannia Bulk Holdings Inc. ("Britannia" or the "Company") (PINKSHEETS: BBLKF) formerly (NYSE: DWT) in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York.

The complaint seeks damages for violations of federal securities laws on behalf of all investors who acquired Britannia Bulk Holdings Inc. common stock pursuant or traceable to the Company's Registration Statement and Prospectus (collectively, the "Registration Statement") issued in connection with its June 17, 2008 initial public offering ("IPO"). Britannia Bulk is an international provider of drybulk shipping and maritime logistics services with a focus on transporting drybulk commodities in and out of the Baltic region.

On June 17, 2008, Britannia Bulk accomplished its IPO of 8.3 million shares at $15.00 per share for net proceeds of $116.2 million, pursuant to the Registration Statement. In its first day of trading, Britannia Bulk stock closed at $13.85 per share. Then, on October 28, 2008, Britannia Bulk issued a press release announcing that the Company expected a significant net loss for the third quarter of 2008 compared to the net income achieved during the second quarter of 2008. The loss was due to problems with hedges the Company had entered into earlier in the year which clearly violated the Company's investment policy described in the Prospectus.

Following this disclosure, the Company's stock collapsed to $0.16 per share. The following day, the Company disclosed that it had been notified by its lenders that they were accelerating all of its subsidiary's obligations under a $170 million lending facility. This would ultimately result in the subsidiary being placed into administration under insolvency laws in the United Kingdom.
