The Issuer’s principal executive offices are located at 27 Signal Road, Stamford, Connecticut 06902. Unless otherwise indicated, each capitalized term used but not defined herein shall have the meaning assigned to such term in the Schedule 13D.

On October 8, 2018, BW LPG delivered a letter (the “Withdrawal Letter”) to the Issuer notifying the Issuer of BW LPG’s withdrawal of its all-stock proposal for a combination of BW LPG with the Issuer and, in connection therewith, its withdrawal of its intention to nominate three independent candidates to stand for election to the Issuer’s Board of Directors at the Issuer’s 2018 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. The foregoing description of the Withdrawal Letter does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Withdrawal Letter, which is attached as Exhibit 99.13 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.

Also on October 8, 2018, BW LPG issued a press release announcing the withdrawal of its all-stock proposal for a combination of BW LPG and the Issuer, which is attached as Exhibit 99.14 hereto.

As the Reporting Persons have previously disclosed, the Reporting Persons expect to review from time to time their investment in the Issuer and in the future may, depending on the Issuer’s business, assets, operations, financial condition, prospects and other factors, decide to: (i) purchase additional Common Shares, options or other securities of the Issuer in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise; (ii) sell all or a portion of the Common Shares, options or other securities now beneficially owned or hereafter acquired by them; (iii) propose one or more director nominees for the Issuer’s Board of Directors or take other actions with respect to the election of the Issuer’s directors; (iv) engage in discussions and negotiations or enter into other transactions with a view to combining BW LPG with the Issuer or otherwise obtaining direct or indirect control of the Issuer; (v) acquire assets of the Issuer and its subsidiaries; and (vi) engage in such other proposals as the Reporting Persons may deem appropriate under the circumstances, including plans or proposals which may relate to, or could result in, any of the matters referred to in Item 4 of Schedule 13D.
