Capital Clean Energy Carriers Corp., a Marshall Islands corporation (the &#147;<I>Company</I>&#148;), of proxies from our shareholders (the &#147;<I>Shareholders</I>&#148;), for use at our annual meeting of shareholders (the &#147;<I>Annual
Meeting</I>&#148;) to be held at our principal executive offices at 3 Iassonos Street, 18537 Piraeus, Greece, at 11:30 a.m. Greek time, on December&nbsp;5, 2024 and at any adjournments or postponements thereof, pursuant to the enclosed Notice of
Annual Meeting. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">This is our first Annual Meeting of Shareholders since our conversion to a corporation. On August&nbsp;26, 2024 (the
&#147;<I>Effective Time</I>&#148;), we completed our conversion from a Marshall Islands limited partnership named &#147;Capital Product Partners L.P.&#148; (the &#147;<I>Partnership</I>&#148;) to a Marshall Islands corporation named &#147;Capital
Clean Energy Carriers Corp.&#148; (the &#147;<I>Conversion</I>&#148;). Upon the Effective Time, among other things, (i)&nbsp;each common unit of the Partnership (the &#147;<I>Common Units</I>&#148;) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the
Effective Time was converted into one common share, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the &#147;<I>Common Shares</I>&#148;) and (ii)&nbsp;the 348,570 general partner units of the Partnership and all of the incentive distribution rights of
the Partnership, in each case outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Date, were converted into an aggregate of 3,500,000 Common Shares. The Common Shares are listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market (&#147;<I>Nasdaq</I>&#148;) under
the symbol &#147;CCEC&#148;. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Conversion is deemed a continuation of the existence of the Partnership in the form of a Marshall
Islands corporation, with the existence of the Company deemed to have commenced on the date the Partnership commenced its existence. Upon the Conversion, the Second Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Partnership (as
amended, the &#147;<I>Partnership Agreement</I>&#148;) and the Certificate of Limited Partnership have terminated and no longer govern the affairs of the Partnership, but instead, the affairs of the Company are governed by the Marshall Islands
Business Corporations Act, the Articles of Incorporation of the Company and the Bylaws of the Company. Capital GP L.L.C. (&#147;<I>CGP LLC</I>&#148; or the &#147;<I>General Partner</I>&#148;), the former general partner of the Partnership, no longer
has management or consent rights with respect to the Partnership pursuant to the Partnership Agreement. As of the Effective Date, each of the members of the board of directors of the Partnership was appointed to serve as an initial director of the
Company, until the first Annual Meeting and until their successor is elected and qualified, or until such director&#146;s earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal. The Board of Directors has formed the following Board committees: an
audit committee (the &#147;<I>Audit Committee</I>&#148;), a compensation committee (the &#147;<I>Compensation Committee</I>&#148;), a conflicts committee (the &#147;<I>Conflicts Committee</I>&#148;) and a nominating committee (the
&#147;<I>Nominating Committee</I>&#148;). In addition to the Board committees, the Board has formed an environmental, social and governance committee (the &#147;<I>ESG Committee</I>&#148;). </P>

of Directors is required to make a subjective determination that no relationships exist which, in the opinion of the Board of Directors, would interfere with the exercise of the director&#146;s independent judgment in carrying out his or her
responsibilities. After reviewing the information presented to it, our Board of Directors has determined that each of Messrs. Christacopoulos, Forman, Hussey, Kozuki and Rasterhoff and Ms.&nbsp;Tsoukala is &#147;independent&#148; within the meaning

committee discussions and public disclosure, as appropriate. The Board of Directors is responsible for overseeing our management in the execution of its risk management responsibilities and for reviewing our approach to risk management. The Board of
Directors administers this risk oversight function either through the full Board of Directors or through the Audit Committee, each of which examines various components of the risks to which we are exposed as part of its responsibilities. An overall
review of risk is inherent in the Board of Director&#146;s consideration of our long- and short-term strategies, acquisitions and significant financial matters. The Audit Committee oversees financial risks (including risks associated with accounting
and financial reporting), legal and compliance risks and other risk management functions. </P>

respectively, as compensation for services related to the management of our business and affairs, including the appointment and performance of relevant duties of the chief executive officer, chief financial officer, and a number of additional
officers. Following the Conversion, our executive officers are paid for their services as our officers pursuant to the Executive Services Agreement with CGP LLC. Officers, employees and affiliates of CGP LLC who provide services to us pursuant to
the Executive Services Agreement may participate in employee benefit plans and arrangements sponsored by Capital Maritime, CGP LLC or their affiliates, including plans that may be established in the future. If any officer and consultant appointed by
CGP LLC or its affiliates resigns under the relevant provisions of their employment and consultancy agreement with CGP LLC or its affiliates due to a &#147;Change of Control&#148; as defined in the Executive Services Agreement, the Company will pay
any compensation provided in such employment and consultancy agreement. See above &#147;Certain Relationships and Related Transactions&#151;Other Transactions&#151;Executive Services Agreements&#148; for additional information. In determining the
amount to be paid to CGP LLC under the Executive Services Agreement, our Board of Directors considered the costs incurred and expected to be incurred by CGP LLC in providing the services within industry standards. </P>

requirements, in order to align the interest of such persons with those of our Shareholders. In determining the amount of these grants, the Board of Directors may consider the then-current market price of our Common Shares, the aggregate holdings of
such recipients and their respective affiliates, the results of our operations for the year, and the contribution of such recipients to our results. </P>
