          <p> <strong>ABOUT COOLCO</strong> </p>
          <p> CoolCo is an LNG Carrier pure play with a balanced portfolio of short and longer-term charters, the cash flows from which form the basis of the Company&#8217;s quarterly dividend for common shareholders. In addition to the built-in and funded
            growth from two newbuilds scheduled to deliver in the second half of 2024, CoolCo&#8217;s strategy includes ongoing assessment of opportunities for vessel acquisitions and potential consolidation in a fragmented market segment. Through its in-house
            vessel management platform, CoolCo manages and operates its LNG transportation and infrastructure assets for a range of the world&#8217;s leading companies in addition to providing such services to third parties. CoolCo benefits from the scale and
            stature of Eastern Pacific Shipping and its affiliates, encompassing CoolCo&#8217;s largest shareholder and the owner of one of the world&#8217;s largest independent shipping fleets, which strengthen the Company&#8217;s strategic position with regard to
            shipyards, financial institutions, and access to dealflow. CoolCo supports the world&#8217;s decarbonization and energy security needs and has stated its intention to reduce its emissions by 10-15% through its LNGe upgrade program, as part of a
            fleet-wide improvement target of 35% between 2019 and 2030. </p>
