EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Current Report on Form 8-K/A (the “Amendment”) updates information disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed on May 13, 2021
(the “Original Form 8-K”) relating to the 2021 Annual Meeting of Shareholders of Genco Shipping & Trading Limited (the “Company”) held on May 13, 2021 (the “Annual Meeting”). The sole purpose of this Amendment is to disclose the Company’s
decision regarding how frequently it will conduct future advisory votes on executive compensation.
As previously reported in the Original Form 8-K, at the Annual Meeting, an advisory vote was conducted on the preferred frequency with
which the Company should hold an advisory vote on the approval of the compensation of its named executive officers. A plurality of the votes cast were in favor of holding such advisory votes on executive compensation every year. The Company's
Board of Directors has considered the outcome of this advisory vote and has determined that the Company will hold an advisory vote on executive compensation every year until the next stockholder advisory vote on such preferred frequency, which is
required to occur no later than the Company’s 2027 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.
