The shares of the company and the right to vote for shares

The Company's share capital is NOK 606,165,050 divided into 60,616,505 shares, each having a face value of NOK 10. Each share carries one vote. However, voting and ownership restrictions apply to Shipping Operators, as defined in the articles of association, according to the Articles of Association section 8.

Each shareholder has, subject to the above mentioned restrictions for Shipping Operators as defined in the Articles of Association section 8, the right to vote for the number of shares owned by the actual shareholder and registered in the shareholder's register with the Norwegian Central Securities Depository (VPS) at the time of the general meeting. If a share acquisition has not been registered with the Norwegian Central Securities Depository (VPS) at the time of the general meeting, voting rights for the acquired shares may only be exercised if the acquisition is reported to the Norwegian Central Securities Depository (VPS) and proven at the general meeting. In a share transfer, the parties may agree that the seller can exercise the rights as holder of the shares until the shares have been transferred to the acquirer.

According to the company's assessment, neither the actual owner nor the agent has the right to vote for shares registered on nominee accounts with the Norwegian Central Securities Depository (VPS), cf. the Norwegian Public Limited Liability Companies Act section 4-10. The actual owner may, however, vote for the shares in the event all necessary steps are taken to terminate the custodian registration of the shares, and the shares are transferred to an ordinary account registered with the Norwegian Central Securities Depository (VPS), in the owner's name. Provided that the owner can document such conduct, and he has an actual ownership interest in the company, he may, in the company's opinion, vote for the shares, even though they are not yet registered on an ordinary VPS-account.

The shareholders' rights

A shareholder cannot demand that new items are added to the agenda now, as the deadline for such request has expired, cf. Norwegian Public Limited Liability Companies Act section 5-11 second sentence. A shareholder has the right to make proposals for a resolution regarding the items which will be discussed by the general meeting.

A shareholder has the right to request board members and CEO to provide necessary information to the general meeting that may influence the approval of the annual accounts and the Board of Directors' report; items brought before the general meeting for approval; the company's financial state, including information on other businesses the company may have interest in, and other items to be discussed at the general meeting, unless the information requested may not be disclosed without disproportionate damage to the company.

If additional information is necessary, and an answer not will be given at the general meeting, a written answer shall be prepared within two weeks from the date of the general meeting. Such answer shall be available at the company's office and sent to shareholders requesting the information. If the answer is considered material for evaluation of the circumstances mentioned in the previous paragraph, the answer should be sent to all shareholders with known address.

Registration of attendance to the general meeting

Shareholders who wish to participate the annual general meeting either in person or by proxy, must notify the company of their attendance no later than Monday 24 April 2017 at 12:00 noon.

Proposal from the nomination committee of American Shipping Company ASA to its annual general meeting to be held on 26 April 2017

The nomination committee of American Shipping Company ASA ("AMSC") comprises Arild S. Frick (chairman) and Christine Rødsæther.

Since the annual general meeting in 2016, the nomination committee has held one meeting. The committee has evaluated the board's performance and received input from shareholders and members of both the board and the management.

For AMSC's annual general meeting to be held on 26 April 2017, the nomination committee makes the following unanimous proposal:

1. Election of member to the board

Pursuant to AMSC's articles of association, the board is to comprise of three to nine board members. The board has three members as per today. Of these Annette Malm Justad is up for election this year. The nomination committee recommends that Annette Malm Justad is re-elected as chairperson of the board for a period of two years. The board will thereby comprise of Annette Malm Justad (chairperson), Peter D. Knudsen and Audun Stensvold.

In its work, the nomination committee has emphasized that the board's composition reflects a variety of experience, knowledge and qualifications. This contributes to a balanced view on priorities with regard to different company issues and beneficial decisions for the development of the company. It further strengthens the board's ability to complement, challenge and control the management of the company. To comply with these criteria, the nomination committee suggests that the annual general meeting makes a joint voting for the recommended board.

2. Election of member to the nomination committee

It is proposed that Arild Støren Frick is re-elected as member of the nomination committee for a period of two years.

3. Proposed remuneration to the members of the board

The nomination committee proposes that board remuneration is marginally increased from last year. The following fees are therefore proposed to the members of the board for the period from the annual general meeting 2016 until the annual general meeting 2017:

Chairperson: NOK 465,000 Board members: NOK 360,000

4. Proposed remuneration to the members of the nomination committee

The nomination committee proposes to maintain last year's fee level unchanged. The following fees are proposed to the members of the nomination committee for the period from the annual general meeting in 2016 until the annual general meeting 2017:

Chairman and members: NOK 33,000

In line with the policy of Aker ASA, the board and nomination committee fees to senior executives are paid directly to the employing company. Consequently, the board fee accruing to Audun Stensvold and the nomination committee fee accruing to Arild Støren Frick will be paid to Aker ASA.

GUIDELINES FOR REMUNERATION OF SENIOR MANAGEMENT

In accordance with section 6-16a of the Norwegian Public Limited Liability Companies Act, the Board of Directors of American Shipping Company ASA has prepared a statement on the determination of salary and other remuneration of senior management of the Company. The General Meeting's approval of the guidelines is of an advisory nature to the Board of Directors.

Advisory guidelines

The basis of remuneration of the senior management has been developed in order to create a performance-based system which is founded on the Company's values. This system of reward was designed to contribute to the achievement of good financial results and increase in shareholder value.

The senior management receives a base salary and may also be granted a bonus based on achievement of performance targets. The senior management may also be granted a variable pay as further detailed under "Binding guidelines" below.

The members of the senior management are entitled to 6 months' severance payment. Except for this, the members of the management are not entitled to special benefits beyond ordinary severance pay during available termination notice periods. The members of the senior management participate in a standard pension and insurance scheme. The Company does not offer share option programs to the management.

Binding guidelines

In 2014, American Shipping Company ASA implemented an incentive scheme pursuant to which members of the senior management received a base salary in addition to a variable pay based on the award of synthetic shares in order to align performance payments with shareholder value creation. The system is based on awarding a certain number of synthetic shares to each member of the senior management team. The holder of the synthetic shares receives cash payments equal to the dividend paid to the shareholders. Further, the annual share price increase, if any, is paid as a cash bonus at the end of the year. There is a cap on the maximum compensation payable to each member of the management team. For the year 2017 members of the senior management has been allocated the following amount of synthetic shares:

Pål Lothe Magnussen, CEO	350,000 shares
Morten Bakke, CFO	200,000 shares
Leigh Jaros, Controller	50,000 shares

The Company also has an incentive scheme for the senior management, where the Company can offer the senior management to purchase shares in the Company, subject to lock-up restrictions, with a view to incentivize long-term value creation and performance by the management.

Remuneration to members of the senior management

During 2016, Mr. Magnussen was awarded 350,000 synthetic shares. Under his synthetic share agreement, the total bonus payment paid during 2016 was USD 161 thousand. The cap on his salary for 2016 was NOK 7 million. During 2016, Mr. Bakke was awarded 200,000 synthetic shares, resulting in bonus payments of USD 70 thousand. The cap on his salary for 2016 was NOK 4 million. During 2016, Ms. Jaros was awarded 50,000 synthetic shares, resulting in bonus payments of USD 23 thousand. The cap on Ms. Jaros' salary was USD 253 thousand per year.

During 2016, Mr. Magnussen purchased 30,000 shares with a price reduction of 20% to the closing price to compensate for the lock-up restrictions on the shares for a period of three years.

The remuneration of the senior management is in accordance with the guidelines for remuneration for 2016.
