files this Registration Statement on Form S-8 relating to its common stock, par value $.01 per
share (&#147;Common Stock&#148;), which may be sold upon the exercise of options or pursuant to other types
of equity-based awards granted under its General Maritime Corporation 2001 Stock Incentive Plan (as
amended and restated, effective December&nbsp;16, 2008) (the &#147;Plan&#148;).
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On December&nbsp;16, 2008, pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger and Amalgamation,
dated as of August&nbsp;5, 2008, by and among the Registrant, Arlington Tankers Ltd. (&#147;Arlington&#148;),
Archer Amalgamation Limited (&#147;Amalgamation Sub&#148;), Galileo Merger Corporation (&#147;Merger Sub&#148;) and
General Maritime Subsidiary Corporation (formerly General Maritime Corporation) (&#147;Historic General
Maritime&#148;), Merger Sub merged with and into Historic General Maritime, with Historic General
Maritime continuing as the surviving entity (the &#147;Merger&#148;), and Amalgamation Sub amalgamated with
Arlington (the &#147;Amalgamation&#148; and, together with the Merger, collectively, the &#147;Mergers&#148;). As a
result of the Mergers, Historic General Maritime and Arlington each became a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Registrant. In addition, upon the consummation of the Mergers, the Registrant
assumed the obligations of Historic General Maritime under the Plan, and each option to purchase a
share of the common stock of Historic General Maritime outstanding immediately prior to the
effective time of the Merger (the &#147;Effective Time&#148;) has become an option to acquire 1.34 shares of
the Registrant&#146;s Common Stock at a price per share equal to the quotient of (i)&nbsp;the aggregate
exercise price for the shares of the common stock of Historic General Maritime purchasable pursuant
to such option immediately prior to the Effective Time, divided by (ii)&nbsp;the aggregate number of
shares of the Registrant&#146;s Common Stock deemed purchasable pursuant to such option in accordance
with the foregoing.

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Registrant is a Marshall Islands corporation. The Marshall Islands Business Corporations
Act, or the MIBCA, provides that Marshall Islands corporations may indemnify any of their directors
or officers who are or are threatened to be a party to any legal action resulting from fulfilling
their duties to the corporation against reasonable expenses, judgments and fees (including
attorneys&#146; fees) incurred in connection with such action if the director or officer acted in good
faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to
believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment,
order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of no contest, or its equivalent, will not create a
presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed
to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal
action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. However, no
indemnification will be permitted in cases where it is determined that the director or officer was
liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his duty to the corporation, unless the
court in which such action was brought determines that the person is fairly and reasonably entitled
to indemnity, and then only for the expenses that the court deems proper. A corporation is
permitted to advance payment for expenses occurred in defense of an action if its board of
directors decides to do so. In addition, Marshall Islands corporations may purchase and maintain
insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director or officer of the corporation against
any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in such capacity whether or not the
corporation would have the power to indemnify him against such liability under the provisions of
the MIBCA.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Registrant&#146;s amended and restated articles of incorporation and its by-laws provide that
the Registrant will indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted under the
MIBCA. The Commission has indicated that, to the extent that indemnification for liabilities
arising under U.S.&nbsp;federal securities laws may be permitted to directors or officers under the
MIBCA or the Registrant&#146;s articles of incorporation or by-laws, such indemnification is against
public policy and thus unenforceable.

under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant&#146;s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a)
or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in the Registration
Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial <I>bona

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">(h)&nbsp;Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to
directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions,
or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than
the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling
person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted
by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered,
the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by
controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be
governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Estimated, in accordance with 17 CFR 230.457(c), solely for the purpose of calculating the
registration fee. The proposed maximum offering price per share is based on the average of the
high and low prices reported by the New York Stock Exchange on December 18, 2008, which is
within five (5) business days prior to the date of this Registration Statement.
(2)
This fee has been calculated under Section 6(b) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "Securities Act"), by multiplying the proposed maximum aggregate offering price by
0.00003930.
(3)
An aggregate of $5,019.34 was previously paid in connection with 1,212,199 unsold shares of
the 1,500,000 shares of common stock registered under the Registration Statement on Form S-8
(No. 333-128896) filed on October 7, 2005 ($6,211.03 in fees paid) by General Maritime
Subsidiary Corporation (formerly General Maritime Corporation), the successor to the
Registrant following the Merger, as described in the Explanatory Note, which unsold shares were removed from registration as of December 17, 2008. Accordingly, pursuant to Rule 457(p)
under the Securities Act, $715.61 of such aggregate of $5,019.34 is being offset against the
total registration fee of $715.61 due in connection with this Registration Statement.

EXPLANATORY NOTE
General Maritime Corporation (formerly Galileo Holding Corporation) (the "Registrant") hereby
files this Registration Statement on Form S-8 relating to its common stock, par value $.01 per
share ("Common Stock"), which may be sold upon the exercise of options or pursuant to other types
of equity-based awards granted under its General Maritime Corporation 2001 Stock Incentive Plan (as
amended and restated, effective December 16, 2008) (the "Plan").
On December 16, 2008, pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger and Amalgamation,
dated as of August 5, 2008, by and among the Registrant, Arlington Tankers Ltd. ("Arlington"),
Archer Amalgamation Limited ("Amalgamation Sub"), Galileo Merger Corporation ("Merger Sub") and
General Maritime Subsidiary Corporation (formerly General Maritime Corporation) ("Historic General
Maritime"), Merger Sub merged with and into Historic General Maritime, with Historic General
Maritime continuing as the surviving entity (the "Merger"), and Amalgamation Sub amalgamated with
Arlington (the "Amalgamation" and, together with the Merger, collectively, the "Mergers"). As a
result of the Mergers, Historic General Maritime and Arlington each became a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Registrant. In addition, upon the consummation of the Mergers, the Registrant
assumed the obligations of Historic General Maritime under the Plan, and each option to purchase a
share of the common stock of Historic General Maritime outstanding immediately prior to the
effective time of the Merger (the "Effective Time") has become an option to acquire 1.34 shares of
the Registrant's Common Stock at a price per share equal to the quotient of (i) the aggregate
exercise price for the shares of the common stock of Historic General Maritime purchasable pursuant
to such option immediately prior to the Effective Time, divided by (ii) the aggregate number of
shares of the Registrant's Common Stock deemed purchasable pursuant to such option in accordance
with the foregoing.

Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The Registrant is a Marshall Islands corporation. The Marshall Islands Business Corporations
Act, or the MIBCA, provides that Marshall Islands corporations may indemnify any of their directors
or officers who are or are threatened to be a party to any legal action resulting from fulfilling
their duties to the corporation against reasonable expenses, judgments and fees (including
attorneys' fees) incurred in connection with such action if the director or officer acted in good
faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to
believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment,
order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of no contest, or its equivalent, will not create a
presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed
to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal
action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. However, no
indemnification will be permitted in cases where it is determined that the director or officer was
liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his duty to the corporation, unless the
court in which such action was brought determines that the person is fairly and reasonably entitled
to indemnity, and then only for the expenses that the court deems proper. A corporation is
permitted to advance payment for expenses occurred in defense of an action if its board of
directors decides to do so. In addition, Marshall Islands corporations may purchase and maintain
insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director or officer of the corporation against
any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in such capacity whether or not the
corporation would have the power to indemnify him against such liability under the provisions of
the MIBCA.
The Registrant's amended and restated articles of incorporation and its by-laws provide that
the Registrant will indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted under the
MIBCA. The Commission has indicated that, to the extent that indemnification for liabilities
arising under U.S. federal securities laws may be permitted to directors or officers under the
MIBCA or the Registrant's articles of incorporation or by-laws, such indemnification is against
public policy and thus unenforceable.

Item 9. Undertakings.
(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective
amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i)
To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of
1933;
(ii)
To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective
date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment
thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the
information set forth in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of
securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from
the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the
form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the
aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change
in the maximum offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table
in the effective Registration Statement; and,
(iii)
To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution
not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such
information in the Registration Statement;
provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information
required to be included in post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in
periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to
Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the
Registration Statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such
post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial
bona fide
offering thereof.
4
Table of Contents
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities
being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(6) That, for the purpose of determining liability of a Registrant under the Securities Act
of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, each undersigned Registrant
undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of an undersigned Registrant pursuant to this
registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the
purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following
communications, the undersigned Registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered
to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
(i)
Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of an undersigned Registrant relating
to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;
(ii)
Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf
of an undersigned Registrant or used or referred to by an undersigned Registrant;
(iii)
The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering
containing material information about an undersigned Registrant or its securities
provided by or on behalf of an undersigned Registrant; and
(iv)
Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by an undersigned
Registrant to the purchaser.
(b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability
under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a)
or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in the Registration
Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona
fide
offering thereof.
(h) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to
directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions,
or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than
the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling
person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted
by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered,
the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by
controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be
governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
