The purpose of this Amendment No. 3 (“Amendment No. 3”) to the Schedule 13D filed by BlackRock, Inc. (“BlackRock”) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 3, 2018 is to report a change in the percentage of shares of Common Stock of the Issuer beneficially owned by the Reporting Person that resulted from a change in the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as a result of the issuances of additional shares of Common Stock by the Issuer, the closings of which were announced in Form 6-K filings made by the Issuer on August 9, 2019 and November 21, 2019, respectively, and the adjustments to the conversion ratio for the Series B Preferred Shares beneficially owned by the Reporting Person that resulted from such issuances.  This Amendment No. 3 is being filed promptly following notification by the Issuer, on November 20, 2019, of the updated conversion ratio for the Series B Preferred Shares.

ITEM 1.  SECURITY AND ISSUER

This Amendment No. 3 amends the Schedule 13D filed by BlackRock with the SEC on August 3, 2018 (the “Initial BlackRock Statement”), as amended by the Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment No. 1”) to Schedule 13D filed by BlackRock with the SEC on June 3, 2019, and the Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D filed by BlackRock with the SEC on June 7, 2019 (“Amendment No. 2”) (as amended, the “BlackRock Schedule 13D”) regarding the common stock, par value $0.03 per share (“Common Stock”), of Euroseas, Ltd. (the “Issuer”), a corporation organized under the laws of the Republic of the Marshall Islands.  Euroseas, Ltd.’s principal executive offices are located at 4 Messogiou & Evropis Street, 151 24 Maroussi, Greece.
As stated in the Initial BlackRock Statement, that filing adopted as BlackRock’s initial statement of beneficial ownership on Schedule 13D, in respect of the Issuer’s shares of Common Stock, the Schedule 13D in respect of the Issuer’s shares of Common Stock filed on behalf of Tennenbaum Capital Partners, LLC (“TCP”) with the SEC on January 31, 2014 (the “Original TCP Schedule 13D”), as separately amended by TCP on March 20, 2014 (the “TCP Amendment No. 1”), January 14, 2016 (the “TCP Amendment No. 2”), March 8, 2016 (the “TCP Amendment No. 3”), December 19, 2016 (the “TCP Amendment No. 4”), June 12, 2017 (the “TCP Amendment No. 5”), June 11, 2018 (the “TCP Amendment No. 6”), August 3, 2018 (the “TCP Amendment No. 7”), and June 3, 2019 (the “TCP Amendment No. 8and, together with the Original TCP Schedule 13D and TCP Amendment. Nos. 1 through No. 8 thereto, the “TCP Schedule 13D”).
Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment No. 3 does not modify any of the information previously reported on the Initial BlackRock Statement, the Amendment No. 1 or Amendment No. 2 thereto, or the TCP Schedule 13D.  Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Amendment No. 3 shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Initial BlackRock Statement.
