{'exclusive economic zone': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'concerned coastal nations': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'marine resources': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'ocean deposits': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'mineral resources': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'eez': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'marine water energy': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'ships': [0, 0, 1, 9], 'marine organisms': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'fishing': [1, 0, 0, 0], 'exploitation': [0, 0, 0, 2], 'exclusive right': [1, 0, 0, 1], 'conservation': [3, 1, 9, 28], 'submarine cables': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'navigation': [1, 1, 1, 3]}

Option 4, "Navigation of ships and laying down submarine cables," is the correct answer as it is not an exclusive right of the concerned coastal nations over the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ).

Let`s analyze the other options to understand why they are exclusive rights of coastal nations within their EEZ:

Option 1, "Survey and exploitation of mineral resources of ocean deposits," is an exclusive right because coastal nations have sovereignty over the resources in their EEZ and can explore and exploit them.

Option 2, "Exploitation of marine water energy and marine organisms including fishing," is also an exclusive right. Coastal nations have the authority to manage and regulate the exploitation of marine energy and resources within their EEZ.

Option 3, "Conservation and management of marine resources," is another exclusive right. Coastal nations have the responsibility to protect and sustainably manage the marine resources within their EEZ.

In conclusion, the correct answer is option 4, as navigation of ships and laying down submarine cables are not exclusive rights of the concerned coastal nations over the EEZ.
