Forward-Looking Statements
This communication contains “forward-looking
statements”, including as defined under applicable laws, such as the US Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking
statements provide the Company’s current expectations or forecasts of future events. Forward-looking statements include statements
about the Company’s expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, intentions, assumptions and other statements that are not historical
facts or that are not present facts or conditions. Words or phrases such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,”
“estimate,” “expect,” “hope,” “intend,” “may,” “ongoing,” “plan,”
“potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “will” or similar words or phrases,
or the negatives of those words or phrases, may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not necessarily
mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties and
are based on potentially inaccurate assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expected or implied by
the forward-looking statements. The Company’s actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in forward-looking statements
for many reasons, including as described in the Company’s filings with the SEC. Accordingly, you should not unduly rely on these
forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this communication. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially
include, but are not limited to, the Company’s operating or financial results; the Company’s liquidity, including its ability
to service its indebtedness; competitive factors in the market in which the Company operates; shipping industry trends, including charter
rates, vessel values and factors affecting vessel supply and demand; future, pending or recent acquisitions and dispositions, business
strategy, areas of possible expansion or contraction, and expected capital spending or operating expenses; risks associated with operations;
broader market impacts arising from war (or threatened war) or international hostilities; risks associated with pandemics, including effects
on demand for oil and other products transported by tankers and the transportation thereof; and other factors listed from time to time
in the Company’s filings with the SEC. Except to the extent required by law, the Company expressly disclaims any obligations or
undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect any change in the
Company’s expectations with respect thereto or any change in events, conditions, or circumstances on which any statement is based.
You should, however, review the factors and risks the Company describes in the reports it files and furnishes from time to time with the
SEC, which can be obtained free of charge on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
