        <commentContent>C.K. Limited is the trustee of two trusts (the "Trusts") that indirectly hold all of the shares of Greenwich Holdings Limited and Famatown Finance Limited. Accordingly, C.K. Limited, as trustee, may be deemed to beneficially own the Common Shares of the Issuer that are beneficially owned by Greenwich Holdings Limited. Mr. Fredriksen established the trusts for the benefit of his immediate family. He is neither a beneficiary nor a trustee of either Trust. Therefore, Mr. Fredriksen has no economic interest in such Common Shares and disclaims any control over such Common Shares, save for any indirect influence he may have with C.K. Limited, as the trustee of the Trusts, in his capacity as the settlor of the Trusts.</commentContent>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Calibri, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0 0 12pt"><B>ATHENS, GREECE, October 3, 2025 - </B>ATHENS, GREECE, October

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Calibri, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0 0 12pt"><B>About Star Bulk </B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Calibri, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0 0 12pt">Star Bulk is a global shipping company providing worldwide seaborne
transportation solutions in the dry bulk sector. Star Bulk&rsquo;s vessels transport major bulks, which include iron ore, minerals and
grain, and minor bulks, which include bauxite, fertilizers and steel products. Star Bulk was incorporated in the Marshall Islands on December
13, 2006 and maintains executive offices in Athens, New York, Stamford and Singapore. Its common stock trades on the Nasdaq Global Select
Market under the symbol &ldquo;SBLK&rdquo;. As of the date of this release on a fully delivered basis and as adjusted for the delivery
of a) the vessels agreed to be sold and b) the five firm Kamsarmax vessels currently under construction, we own a fleet of 142 vessels,
with an aggregate capacity of 14.2 million dwt consisting of 17 Newcastlemax, 15 Capesize, 1 Mini Capesize, 7 Post Panamax, 42 Kamsarmax,
1 Panamax, 48 Ultramax and 11 Supramax vessels with carrying capacities between 55,569 dwt and 209,537 dwt.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Calibri, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0 0 12pt">In addition, in November 2021, we took delivery of the Capesize
vessel Star Shibumi, under a seven-year charter-in arrangement and in 2024, we took delivery of the vessels Star Voyager, Star Explorer,
Stargazer, Star Earendel, Star Illusion and Star Thetis, each subject to a seven-year charter-in arrangement.</P>
