Oslo, Norway - MPC Container Ships ASA ("MPCC" or the "Company") is pleased to
announce the acquisition of two 3,500 TEU vessels and a charter agreement
package for a total of 10 vessels, including the new acquisitions, thereby
strengthening the Company's backlog and improving earnings visibility.

The acquisition consists of two 3,500 TEU vessels at a total price of USD 47.25
million. The vessels are expected to be handed over from their current owner in
the third quarter of 2024 and will be delivered into pre-agreed firm 36-month
time charter contracts with a top-tier liner company. These vessels are
anticipated to generate aggregate revenues of approximately USD 55 million over
the charter period, ensuring the acquisition price is fully covered by the
corresponding EBITDA and recycling value at the end of the charters.

In addition, MPCC has entered into an agreement to charter out five 1,700 TEU
and three 2,800 TEU vessels on 24-26-month contracts to the same top-tier liner
company at attractive rates. These contracts are fixed approximately six months
forward on average and will be delivered into their new charters during the
fourth quarter of 2024 and the first quarter of 2025. In total, the new charter
agreements, including the newly acquired vessels, will add USD 155-195 million
to the Company's backlog and increase contract coverage to 90% of open days
remaining in 2024, 64% in 2025, and 34% in 2026.

"While our strategy remains focused on fleet renewal and optimization, we are
pleased to announce new value-enhancing strategic measures, taking advantage of
the current strong and dynamic market," said MPCC's Co-CEO and CFO, Moritz
Fuhrmann. "The acquisition of two 3,500 TEU vessels built in 2009 is a strategic
move that comes with pre-agreed charters, effectively de-risking the investment.
Together with a comprehensive charter package on existing vessels, this
underscores our strong competitive position and our ability to secure attractive
agreements with top-tier liner companies. This not only enhances our revenue
visibility but also strengthens our partnership with a leading industry player,
contributing to our long-term growth and shareholder value creation."
