MPC Container Ships ASA: Exercise of Additional Options for Exhaust Gas Cleaning Systems ("scrubbers") and Charter Agreements for Charters for Scrubber-retrofitted Vessels

CEO Constantin Baack comments in relation to the announcement: "We are excited to have concluded charters for six scrubber-retrofitted vessels in our fleet. The transaction adds charter coverage at attractive rates and provides significant upside potential post 1 January 2020. Equally important, the transaction demonstrates an increasing interest from liner companies for scrubber-linked charters and MPC Container Ships is well-positioned to become a preferred partner for charterers through the platform and the flexibility it has to offer to its customers."
