   BRAEMAR   SHIPPING SERVICES PLC 

("Braemar", the "Company" or the "Group")

17 June 2021

Director / PDMR Shareholding

Braemar Shipping Services Plc (LSE: BMS), a leading international provider of shipbroking, financial advisory and logistics services to the shipping and energy industries, announces that it granted the following awards under the Company's Long Term Incentive Plan (the "LTIP") on 14 June 2021 to certain Persons Discharging Managerial Responsibilities ("PDMRs") of the Company:

James Gundy, Group Chief Executive Officer - LTIP award over 300,884 shares

Nicholas Stone, Group COO & Finance Director - LTIP award over 88,495 shares

Peter Mason, General Counsel & Company Secretary - LTIP award over 47,787 shares

These awards are nil cost options to acquire ordinary shares of 10p each in the Company and will vest in three years subject to meeting the performance criteria and the rules of the LTIP. The performance criteria are based on the Company's growth in absolute Total Shareholder Return ("TSR") measured over a three-year performance period ending on 13 June 2024. The amounts shown above represent the maximum possible opportunity, which will vest if growth in TSR is equivalent to a compound annual growth rate ("CAGR") of 22% or more per annum over the three-year performance period. If CAGR over the performance period is less than 12% per annum, none of the awards will vest; if CAGR is 12% per annum, 25% of the award will vest; and if CAGR is between 12% and 22% per annum, the vesting outcome will be calculated on a straight-line basis between 25% and 100%.

TSR reflects movement in share price and reinvestment of dividends over the performance period, with the share prices to be used being the three-month averages ending on 13 June 2021 and 13 June 2024. To ensure sufficient stretch within the targets for awards, the base point measurement (three-month average TSR to 13 June 2021) was raised by a further 10%.

Further information on the LTIP is contained in the Company's 2020 Annual Report.

The notifications set out below provide further details in accordance with the requirements of the EU Market Abuse Regulation, which is part of UK law by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018.
