OSG Completes Spin-Off of its International Business, International Seaways

TAMPA, Fla. –
Overseas Shipholding Group, Inc. (NYSE: OSG) (the “Company” or “OSG”)
announced today that it has completed the previously announced
separation of OSG into two independent, publicly traded companies:
Overseas Shipholding Group and International Seaways (NYSE: INSW).

“Today marks the start of an exciting new chapter for OSG. We are now a
more sharply focused company with a leading and diversified position in
the Jones Act market,” said Sam Norton, OSG’s SVP & President and CEO of
the U.S. Flag Strategic Business Unit. “We are confident that this focus
will allow us to leverage our trusted operating franchise and strong
balance sheet to address growth opportunities and drive shareholder
value. We will continue to focus on the quality of our operations so as
to ensure the delivery of safe, clean, reliable, incident-free
transportation services to our customers,” Norton concluded.

At 5:00 p.m. on Nov. 30, 2016, 100 percent of the shares of
International Seaways were distributed to OSG shareholders and warrant
holders. OSG shareholders received 0.3333 shares of International
Seaways common stock for every one share of OSG common stock held at
5:00 p.m. on November 18, 2016, the record date for the spin-off.

For each OSG warrant held on the record date, OSG warrant holders
received 0.3333 shares of INSW common stock for every one share of OSG
common stock they would have received if they exercised those warrants
immediately prior to the distribution date (or approximately 0.06332
INSW shares per warrant). OSG shareholders and warrant holders received
cash in lieu of any fractional shares.

International Seaways common stock will begin “regular way” trading on
the NYSE under the symbol “INSW” on December 1, 2016.
