Risk Factors of this annual report.We caution that these and other forward-looking statements included in this annual report represent our estimates and assumptions only as of the date of this annual report and are not intended to give any assurance as to future results. Many of the forward-looking statements included in this annual
  report are based on our assumptions about factors that are beyond our ability to control or predict. Assumptions, expectations, projections, intentions and beliefs about future events may, and often do, vary from actual results and these differences can be material. The reasons for this include the risks,
  uncertainties and factors described in Item 3. Key InformationD. Risk Factors of this annual report. As a result, the forward-looking events discussed in this annual report might not occur and our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements. Accordingly,
  you should not unduly rely on any forward-looking statements.
We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements contained in this annual report, whether as a result of new information, future events, a change in our views or expectations or otherwise. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all
  of these factors. Further, we cannot assess the impact of each such factor on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to be materially different from those contained in any forward-looking statement.

D. Risk Factors
Risks Related to Our Industry
Our future performance depends on continued growth in LNG production and demand for LNG and LNG shipping.
Our future performance, including our ability to profitably expand our fleet beyond delivery of our seven contracted newbuildings, will depend on continued growth in LNG production and the demand for LNG and LNG shipping. A complete LNG project includes production, liquefaction, storage,
  regasification and distribution facilities, in addition to the marine transportation of LNG. Increased infrastructure investment has led to an expansion of LNG production capacity in recent years, but material delays in the construction of new liquefaction facilities could constrain the amount of LNG
  available for shipping, reducing ship utilization. The rate of growth of the LNG industry has fluctuated due to several factors, including the global economic crisis and continued economic uncertainty, fluctuations in the price of natural gas and other sources of energy, the continued acceleration in natural
  gas production from unconventional sources in regions such as North America and the highly complex and capital intensive nature of new or expanded LNG projects, including liquefaction projects. Continued growth in LNG production and demand for LNG and LNG shipping could be negatively
  affected by a number of factors, including:

    
    
    
    increases in interest rates or other events that may affect the availability of sufficient financing for LNG projects on commercially reasonable terms;
    
    
    
    increases in the cost of natural gas derived from LNG relative to the cost of natural gas generally;
    
    
    
    increases in the production levels of low-cost natural gas in domestic natural gas consuming markets, which could further depress prices for natural gas in those markets and make LNG uneconomical;
    
    
    
    increases in the production of natural gas in areas linked by pipelines to consuming areas, the extension of existing, or the development of new pipeline systems in markets we may serve, or the conversion of existing non-natural gas pipelines to natural gas pipelines in those markets;
    
    
    
    decreases in the consumption of natural gas due to increases in its price, decreases in the price of alternative energy sources or other factors making consumption of natural gas less attractive;
    
    
    
    any significant explosion, spill or other incident involving an LNG facility or carrier;
    
    
    
    infrastructure constraints such as delays in the construction of liquefaction facilities, the inability of project owners or operators to obtain governmental approvals to construct or operate LNG facilities, as well as community or political action group resistance to new LNG infrastructure due to
      concerns about the environment, safety and terrorism;
    
    
    
    labor or political unrest or military conflicts affecting existing or proposed areas of LNG production or regasification;
    
    
    
    decreases in the price of LNG, which might decrease the expected returns relating to investments in LNG projects;
    
    
    
    new taxes or regulations affecting LNG production or liquefaction that make LNG production less attractive; or
    
    
    
    negative global or regional economic or political conditions, particularly in LNG consuming regions, which could reduce energy consumption or its growth.Reduced demand for LNG or LNG shipping, or any reduction or limitation in LNG production capacity, could have a material adverse effect on our ability to secure future time charters upon
5

expiration or early termination of our current charter arrangements, for any ships for which we have not yet secured charters, or for any new ships we acquire beyond our contracted newbuildings, which could harm our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, including cash
  available for dividends to our shareholders.
Demand for LNG shipping could be significantly affected by volatile natural gas prices and the overall demand for natural gas.
Natural gas prices are volatile and are affected by numerous factors beyond our control, including but not limited to the following:

    
    
    
    worldwide demand for natural gas;
    
    
    
    the cost of exploration, development, production, transportation and distribution of natural gas;
    
    
    
    expectations regarding future energy prices for both natural gas and other sources of energy;
    
    
    
    the level of worldwide LNG production and exports;
    
    
    
    government laws and regulations, including but not limited to environmental protection laws and regulations;
    
    
    
    local and international political, economic and weather conditions;
    
    
    
    political and military conflicts; and
    
    
    
    the availability and cost of alternative energy sources, including alternate sources of natural gas in gas importing and consuming countries.Natural gas prices have historically varied substantially between regions. This price disparity between producing and consuming regions supports demand for LNG shipping and any convergence of natural gas prices would adversely affect demand for LNG shipping.
Fluctuations in overall LNG demand growth could adversely affect our ability to secure future time charters.
According to
Clarkson Research Services Limited, or “Clarkson Research”, the world seaborne trade in LNG has grown strongly over the
past two decades, with a compound annual growth rate of 7.1% between 1990 and 2011, with particularly strong growth in 2010
and 2011 as LNG demand increased and new and existing facilities were   able to commence production. However, overall trade
volumes declined by 2.8% in 2012, primarily due to lower production as a result of planned and unplanned outages at various
liquefaction sites and the weakness in the world economy. Based on preliminary trade statistics, world seaborne trade in
LNG trade is estimated to have declined by a further 0.4% in 2013. This marginal fall in trade is a result of limited
liquefaction capacity growth over the course of the year, coupled with import declines in both the United States and Europe
offsetting growth in non-OECD Asia.
Continued economic uncertainty and the continued acceleration of unconventional natural gas production could have an adverse effect on our ability to secure future term charters.
Our future growth depends on our ability to expand relationships with existing customers, establish relationships with new customers and obtain new time charter contracts, for which we will face substantial competition from established companies with significant resources and potential new entrants.
We are seeking to enter into time charter contracts for (i) two of our newbuildings scheduled for delivery in 2014 and 2015, (ii) the GasLog Chelsea, that operates in the spot market, and (iii) the GasLog Skagen, that from 2016 is on a seasonal contract (i.e., employed for seven months and available
  to accept other charters for five months per year). We will also seek to enter into new time charter contracts upon the expiration or early termination of our existing charter arrangements, and upon any expansion of our fleet of owned ships beyond our contracted newbuildings. In addition, we may seek
  to expand the customer base for our ship management services. The process
6

of obtaining charters for LNG carriers is highly competitive and generally involves an intensive screening procedure and competitive bids, which often extends for several months. We believe LNG carrier time charters are awarded based upon a variety of factors relating to the ship and the ship operator,
  including:

    
    
    
    size, age, technical specifications and condition of the ship;
    
    
    
    efficiency of ship operation;
    
    
    
    LNG shipping experience and quality of ship operations;
    
    
    
    shipping industry relationships and reputation for customer service;
    
    
    
    technical ability and reputation for operation of highly specialized ships;
    
    
    
    quality and experience of officers and crew;
    
    
    
    safety record;
    
    
    
    the ability to finance ships at competitive rates and financial stability generally;
    
    
    
    relationships with shipyards and the ability to get suitable berths;
    
    
    
    construction management experience, including the ability to obtain on-time delivery of new ships according to customer specifications; and
    
    
    
    competitiveness of the bid in terms of overall price.We expect substantial competition for providing marine transportation services for potential LNG projects from a number of experienced companies, including other independent ship owners as well as state-sponsored entities and major energy companies that own and operate LNG carriers and may
  compete with independent owners by using their fleets to carry LNG for third parties. Some of these competitors have significantly greater financial resources and larger fleets than we have. A number of marine transportation companiesincluding companies with strong reputations and extensive resources
  and experiencehave entered the LNG transportation market in recent years, and there are other ship owners and managers who may also attempt to participate in the LNG market in the future. This increased competition may cause greater price competition for time charters. As a result of these factors,
  we may be unable to expand our relationships with existing customers or to obtain new customers on a profitable basis, if at all, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, including cash available for dividends to our shareholders.
Hire rates for LNG carriers may fluctuate substantially. If rates are lower when we are seeking a new charter, our revenues and cash flows may decline.
Our ability from time to time to charter or re-charter any ship at attractive rates will depend on, among other things, the prevailing economic conditions in the LNG industry. Hire rates for LNG carriers may fluctuate over time as a result of changes in the supply-demand balance relating to current
  and future ship capacity. This supply-demand relationship largely depends on a number of factors outside our control. The LNG charter market is connected to world natural gas prices and energy markets, which we cannot predict. A substantial or extended decline in demand for natural gas or LNG
  could adversely affect our ability to charter or re-charter our ships at acceptable rates or to acquire and profitably operate new ships. Hire rates for newbuildings are correlated with the price of newbuildings. Hire rates at a time when we may be seeking new charters may be lower than the hire rates at
  which our ships are currently chartered. If hire rates are lower when we are seeking a new charter, our revenues and cash flows, including cash available for dividends to our shareholders, may decline, as we may only be able to enter into new charters at reduced or unprofitable rates or may not be able
  to re-charter our ship, or we may have to secure a charter in the spot market, where hire rates are more volatile. Prolonged periods of low charter hire rates or low ship utilization could also have a material adverse effect on the value of our assets.

An oversupply of LNG carriers may lead to a reduction in the charter hire rates we are able to obtain when seeking charters in the future.
Driven in part by an increase in LNG production capacity, the market supply of LNG carriers has been increasing as a result of the construction of new ships. According to Clarkson Research, from the start of 1996 to the start of 2011, the global fleet of LNG carriers grew from 90 ships (9.4 million
  cbm) to 361 ships (51.6 million cbm), due to the construction and delivery of new LNG carriers. Although the global newbuilding order book dropped steeply between mid-2007 and the start of 2011, orders for an estimated 132 newbuilding LNG carriers were placed in the period from the start of 2011 to
  the start of March 2014, compared to a total of just 10 newbuilding LNG carriers between 2008 and 2010. As of March 1, 2014, the LNG carrier order book totaled 114 ships with an aggregate capacity of 17.7 million cbm. At 32% of the global fleet (in terms of carrying capacity), the current order book
  is notably smaller than the record highs recorded in mid-2006 when it was almost 100% of the existing global fleet. Nevertheless, it is substantially larger than it was at the start of 2011 (approximately 6% of the existing global fleet). This and any future expansion of the global LNG carrier fleet may
  have a negative impact on charter hire rates, ship utilization and ship values, which could be amplified if the expansion of LNG production capacity does not keep pace with fleet growth.
If charter hire rates are lower when we are seeking new time charters, our revenues and cash flows, including cash available for dividends to our shareholders, may decline.
If an active short-term or spot LNG carrier charter market continues to develop, our revenues and cash flows may become more volatile and may decline following expiration or early termination of our current charter arrangements.
Most shipping requirements for new LNG projects continue to be provided on a multi-year basis, though the level of spot voyages and short-term time charters of less than 12 months in duration has grown in the past few years. If an active short-term or spot charter market continues to develop, we
  may enter into short-term time charters upon expiration or early termination of our current charters, for any ships for which we have not secured charters, or for any new ships we acquire beyond our contracted newbuildings. As a result, our revenues and cash flows may become more volatile. In
  addition, an active short-term or spot charter market may require us to enter into charters based on changing market prices, as opposed to contracts based on fixed rates, which could result in a decrease in our revenues and cash flows, including cash available for dividends to our shareholders, if we enter
  into charters during periods when the market price for shipping LNG is depressed.
Further technological advancements and other innovations affecting LNG carriers could reduce the charter hire rates we are able to obtain when seeking new employment, and this could adversely impact the value of our assets.
The charter rates, asset value and operational life of an LNG carrier are determined by a number of factors, including the ships efficiency, operational flexibility and physical life. Efficiency includes speed and fuel economy. Flexibility includes the ability to enter harbors, utilize related docking
  facilities and pass through canals and straits. Physical life is related to the original design and construction, the ongoing maintenance and the impact of operational stresses on the asset. Ship and engine designs are continually evolving. At such time as newer designs are developed and accepted in the
  market, these newer vessels may be found to be more efficient or more flexible or have longer physical lives than our ships. As a result, competition from these more technologically advanced LNG carriers could adversely affect our ability to charter or re-charter our ships and the charter hire rates we
  will be able to secure when we seek to charter or re-charter our ships, and could also reduce the resale value of our ships. This could adversely affect our revenues and cash flows, including cash available for dividends to our shareholders.

Risks associated with operating and managing ocean-going ships could affect our business and reputation.
The operation and management of ocean-going ships carries inherent risks. These risks include the possibility of:

    
    
    
    marine disaster;
    
    
    
    piracy;
    
    
    
    environmental accidents;
    
    
    
    adverse weather conditions;
    
    
    
    grounding, fire, explosions and collisions;
    
    
    
    cargo and property loss or damage;
    
    
    
    business interruptions caused by mechanical failure, human error, war, terrorism, disease and quarantine, or political action in various countries; and
    
    
    
    work stoppages or other labor problems with crew members serving on our ships.An accident involving any of our owned or managed ships could result in any of the following:

    
    
    
    death or injury to persons, loss of property or environmental damage;
    
    
    
    delays in the delivery of cargo;
    
    
    
    loss of revenues from termination of charter contracts or ship management agreements;
    
    
    
    governmental fines, penalties or restrictions on conducting business;
    
    
    
    litigation with our employees, customers or third parties;
    
    
    
    higher insurance rates; and
    
    
    
    damage to our reputation and customer relationships generally.Any of these results could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, including cash available for dividends to our shareholders.
Our insurance may be insufficient to cover losses that may occur to our property or result from our operations.
The operation of any ship includes risks such as mechanical failure, personal injury, collision, fire, contact with floating objects, property loss or damage, cargo loss or damage and business interruption due to a number of reasons, including political circumstances in foreign countries, hostilities and
  labor strikes. In addition, there is always an inherent possibility of a marine disaster, including explosion, spills and other environmental mishaps, and other liabilities arising from owning, operating or managing ships in international trade.
Although we carry protection and indemnity, hull and machinery and loss of hire insurance covering our owned ships consistent with industry standards, we can give no assurance that we are adequately insured against all risks or that our insurers will pay a particular claim. We also may be unable to
  procure adequate insurance coverage at commercially reasonable rates in the future. Even if our insurance coverage is adequate to cover our losses, we may not be able to obtain a timely replacement ship in the event of a loss of a ship. Any uninsured or underinsured loss could harm our business,
  financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, including cash available for dividends to shareholders. Similarly, although we carry ship manager insurance in connection with our management of third-party ships, we can give no assurance that such insurance will adequately insure us against all
  risks associated with our ship management services, that our insurers will pay a particular claim or that we will be able to procure adequate insurance coverage at commercially reasonable rates in the future.
In addition, some of our insurance coverage is maintained through mutual protection and indemnity associations, and as a member of such associations we may be required to make additional payments over and above budgeted premiums if member claims exceed association reserves.

The required drydocking of our ships could be more expensive and time consuming than we anticipate, which could adversely affect our results of operations and cash flows.
Drydockings of our owned ships require significant capital expenditures and result in loss of revenue while our ships are off-hire. Any significant increase in either the number of off-hire days due to such drydockings or in the costs of any repairs carried out during the drydockings could have a
  material adverse effect on our profitability and our cash flows. We may not be able to accurately predict the time required to drydock any of our ships or any unanticipated problems that may arise. If more than one of our ships is required to be out of service at the same time, or if a ship is drydocked
  longer than expected or if the cost of repairs during the drydocking is greater than budgeted, our results of operations and our cash flows, including cash available for dividends to our shareholders, could be adversely affected.
Changes in global and regional economic conditions could adversely impact our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Weak global or regional economic conditions may negatively impact our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows in ways that we cannot predict. Our ability to expand our fleet beyond our contracted newbuildings will be dependent on our ability to obtain financing to fund
  the acquisition of additional ships. In addition, uncertainty about current and future global economic conditions may cause our customers to defer projects in response to tighter credit, decreased capital availability and declining customer confidence, which may negatively impact the demand for our ships
  and services and could also result in defaults under our current charters or termination of our ship management contracts. Global financial markets and economic conditions have been volatile in recent years and remain subject to significant vulnerabilities. In particular, despite recent measures taken by
  the European Union, concerns persist regarding the debt burden of certain Eurozone countries and their ability to meet future financial obligations, and the overall stability of the euro. Furthermore, a tightening of the credit markets may further negatively impact our operations by affecting the solvency
  of our suppliers or customers which could lead to disruptions in delivery of supplies such as equipment for conversions, cost increases for supplies, accelerated payments to suppliers, customer bad debts or reduced revenues. Similarly, such market conditions could affect lenders participating in our
  financing agreements, making them unable to fulfill their commitments and obligations to the Company. Any reductions in activity owing to such conditions or failure by our customers, suppliers or lenders to meet their contractual obligations to the Company could adversely affect our business, financial
  position, results of operation and cash flows, including cash available for dividends to our shareholders.
Disruptions in world financial markets could limit our ability to obtain future debt financing or refinance existing debt.
Global financial markets and economic conditions have been disrupted and volatile in recent years. Credit markets as well as the debt and equity capital markets were exceedingly distressed and at certain times in recent years it was difficult to obtain financing and the cost of any available financing
  increased significantly. If global financial markets and economic conditions significantly deteriorate in the future, we may experience difficulties obtaining financing commitments, including commitments to refinance our existing debt as substantial balloon payments come due under our credit facilities, in
  the future if lenders are unwilling to extend financing to us or unable to meet their funding obligations due to their own liquidity, capital or solvency issues. As a result, financing may not be available on acceptable terms or at all. If financing is not available when needed, or is available only on
  unfavorable terms, we may be unable to meet our future obligations as they come due. Our failure to obtain the funds for these capital expenditures could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, including cash available for dividends to our
  shareholders. In the absence of available financing, we also may be unable to take advantage of further business opportunities or respond to competitive pressures.
10

Compliance with safety and other requirements imposed by classification societies may be very costly and may adversely affect our business.
The hull and machinery of every commercial LNG carrier must be classed by a classification society. The classification society certifies that the ship has been built and subsequently maintained in accordance with the applicable rules and regulations of that classification society. Moreover, every ship
  must comply with all applicable international conventions and the regulations of the ships flag state as verified by a classification society. Finally, each ship must successfully undergo periodic surveys, including annual, intermediate and special surveys performed under the classification societys rules.
If any ship does not maintain its class, it will lose its insurance coverage and be unable to trade, and the ships owner will be in breach of relevant covenants under its financing arrangements. Failure to maintain the class of one or more of our ships could have a material adverse effect on our
  business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, including cash available for dividends to our shareholders.
The LNG shipping industry is subject to substantial environmental and other regulations, which may significantly limit our operations or increase our expenses.
Our operations are materially affected by extensive and changing international, national, state and local environmental laws, regulations, treaties, conventions and standards which are in force in international waters, or in the jurisdictional waters of the countries in which our ships operate and in the
  countries in which our ships are registered. These requirements include those relating to equipping and operating ships, providing security and minimizing or addressing impacts on the environment from ship operations. We have incurred, and expect to continue to incur, substantial costs in complying with
  these requirements, including costs for ship modifications and changes in operating procedures. We also could incur substantial costs, including cleanup costs, civil and criminal penalties and sanctions, the suspension or termination of operations and third-party claims as a result of violations of, or liabilities
  under, such laws and regulations.
In addition, these requirements can affect the resale value or useful lives of our ships, require a reduction in cargo capacity, necessitate ship modifications or operational changes or restrictions or lead to decreased availability of insurance coverage for environmental matters. They could further result
  in the denial of access to certain jurisdictional waters or ports or detention in certain ports. We are required to obtain governmental approvals and permits to operate our ships. Delays in obtaining such governmental approvals may increase our expenses, and the terms and conditions of such approvals
  could materially and adversely affect our operations.
Additional laws and regulations may be adopted that could limit our ability to do business or increase our operating costs, which could materially and adversely affect our business. For example, new or amended legislation relating to ship recycling, sewage systems, emission control (including
  emissions of greenhouse gases) as well as ballast water treatment and ballast water handling may be adopted. The United States has recently enacted ballast water management system legislation and regulations that require more stringent controls of air and water emissions from ocean-going ships. Such
  legislation or regulations may require additional capital expenditures or operating expenses (such as increased costs for low-sulfur fuel) in order for us to maintain our ships compliance with international and/or national regulations. We also may become subject to additional laws and regulations if we
  enter new markets or trades.
We also believe that the heightened environmental, quality and security concerns of insurance underwriters, regulators and charterers will generally lead to additional regulatory requirements, including enhanced risk assessment and security requirements, as well as greater inspection and safety
  requirements on all LNG carriers in the marine transportation market. These requirements are likely to add incremental costs to our operations, and the failure to comply with these requirements may affect the ability of our ships to obtain and, possibly, recover from, insurance or to obtain the required
  certificates for entry into the different ports where we operate.
11

Some environmental laws and regulations, such as the U.S. Oil Pollution Act of 1990, or OPA, provide for potentially unlimited joint, several and/or strict liability for owners, operators and demise or bareboat charterers for oil pollution and related damages. OPA applies to discharges of any oil
  from a ship in U.S. waters, including discharges of fuel and lubricants from an LNG carrier, even if the ships do not carry oil as cargo. In addition, many states in the United States bordering a navigable waterway have enacted legislation providing for potentially unlimited strict liability without regard to
  fault for the discharge of pollutants within their waters. We also are subject to other laws and conventions outside the United States that provide for an owner or operator of LNG carriers to bear strict liability for pollution, such as the Convention on Limitation of Liability for Maritime Claims of 1976,
  or the London Convention.
Some of these laws and conventions, including OPA and the London Convention, may include limitations on liability. However, the limitations may not be applicable in certain circumstances, such as where a spill is caused by a ship owners or operators intentional or reckless conduct. These
  limitations are also subject to periodic updates and may otherwise be amended in the future.
Compliance with OPA and other environmental laws and regulations also may result in ship owners and operators incurring increased costs for additional maintenance and inspection requirements, the development of contingency arrangements for potential spills, obtaining mandated insurance
  coverage and meeting financial responsibility requirements.
Climate change and greenhouse gas restrictions may adversely impact our operations and markets.
Due to concern over the risks of climate change, a number of countries and the International Maritime Organization, or IMO, have adopted, or are considering the adoption of, regulatory frameworks to reduce greenhouse gas emission from ships. These regulatory measures may include adoption of
  cap and trade regimes, carbon taxes, increased efficiency standards and incentives or mandates for renewable energy. Although emissions of greenhouse gases from international shipping currently are not subject to the Kyoto Protocol to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, or
  the Kyoto Protocol, a new treaty may be adopted in the future that includes additional restrictions on shipping emissions to those already adopted under the International Convention for the Prevention of Marine Pollution from Ships, or the MARPOL Convention. Compliance with future changes in
  laws and regulations relating to climate change could increase the costs of operating and maintaining our ships and could require us to install new emission controls, as well as acquire allowances, pay taxes related to our greenhouse gas emissions or administer and manage a greenhouse gas emissions
  program. Revenue generation and strategic growth opportunities may also be adversely affected.
Adverse effects upon the oil and gas industry relating to climate change, including growing public concern about the environmental impact of climate change, may also have an effect on demand for our services. For example, increased regulation of greenhouse gases or other concerns relating to
  climate change may reduce the demand for oil and gas in the future or create greater incentives for use of alternative energy sources. Any long-term material adverse effect on the oil and gas industry could have significant financial and operational adverse impacts on our business that we cannot predict
  with certainty at this time.
We operate our ships worldwide, which could expose us to political, governmental and economic instability that could harm our business.
Because we operate our ships in the geographic areas where our customers do business, our operations may be affected by political, governmental and economic conditions in the countries where our ships operate or where they are registered. Any disruption caused by these factors could harm our
  business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. In particular, our ships frequent LNG terminals in countries including Egypt, Equatorial Guinea and Trinidad as well as transit through the Gulf of Aden and the Strait of Malacca. Economic, political and governmental conditions in these
  and other regions have from time to time resulted in military conflicts, terrorism, attacks on ships, mining of waterways, piracy and other efforts to disrupt shipping. Future hostilities or other political instability in the geographic regions where we operate or may operate could have
12

a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, including cash available for dividends to our shareholders. In addition, our business could also be harmed by tariffs, trade embargoes and other economic sanctions by the United States or other countries
  against countries in the Middle East, Southeast Asia or elsewhere as a result of terrorist attacks, hostilities or diplomatic or political pressures that limit trading activities with those countries.
Terrorist attacks, international hostilities and piracy could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Terrorist attacks, piracy and the current conflicts in the Middle East, and other current and future conflicts, may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, including cash available for dividends to our shareholders. The continuing hostilities in the Middle
  East may lead to additional acts of terrorism, further regional conflicts, other armed actions around the world and civil disturbance in the United States or elsewhere, which may contribute to further instability in the global financial markets. These uncertainties could also adversely affect our ability to
  obtain additional financing on terms acceptable to us, or at all.
In the past, political conflicts have also resulted in attacks on ships, mining of waterways and other efforts to disrupt international shipping, particularly in the Arabian Gulf region. Acts of terrorism and piracy have also affected ships trading in regions such as the South China Sea and the Gulf of
  Aden. Since 2008, the frequency of piracy incidents against commercial shipping vessels has increased significantly, particularly in the Gulf of Aden and off the coast of Somalia. Any terrorist attacks targeted at ships may in the future negatively materially affect our business, financial condition, results of
  operations and cash flows and could directly impact our ships or our customers.
We currently employ armed guards on board certain vessels operating in areas that may be prone to hijacking or terrorist attacks. The presence of armed guards may increase the risk of damage, injury or loss of life in connection with any attacks on our vessels, in addition to increasing crew costs.
We may not be adequately insured to cover losses from acts of terrorism, piracy, regional conflicts and other armed actions, including losses relating to the employment of armed guards.
LNG facilities, shipyards, ships, pipelines and gas fields could be targets of future terrorist attacks or piracy. Any such attacks could lead to, among other things, bodily injury or loss of life, as well as damage to the ships or other property, increased ship operating costs, including insurance costs,
  reductions in the supply of LNG and the inability to transport LNG to or from certain locations. Terrorist attacks, war or other events beyond our control that adversely affect the production, storage or transportation of LNG to be shipped by us could entitle our customers to terminate our charter
  contracts in certain circumstances, which would harm our cash flows and our business.
Terrorist attacks, or the perception that LNG facilities and LNG carriers are potential terrorist targets, could materially and adversely affect expansion of LNG infrastructure and the continued supply of LNG. Concern that LNG facilities may be targeted for attack by terrorists has contributed
  significantly to local community and environmental group resistance to the construction of a number of LNG facilities, primarily in North America. If a terrorist incident involving an LNG facility or LNG carrier did occur, in addition to the possible effects identified in the previous paragraph, the incident
  may adversely affect the construction of additional LNG facilities and could lead to the temporary or permanent closing of various LNG facilities currently in operation.
In the future, the ships we own or manage could be required to call on ports located in countries that are subject to restrictions imposed by the United States and other governments.
The United States and other governments and their agencies impose sanctions and embargoes on certain countries and maintain lists of countries they consider to be state sponsors of terrorism. For example, in 2010, the United States enacted the Comprehensive Iran Sanctions Accountability and
  Divestment Act, or CISADA, which expanded the scope of the former Iran Sanctions Act.
13

Among other things, CISADA expanded the application of the prohibitions imposed by the U.S. government to non-U.S. companies, such as us, and limits the ability of companies and persons to do business or trade with Iran when such activities relate to the investment, supply or export of refined
  petroleum or petroleum products, as well as LNG.
In 2012, President Obama signed Executive Order 13608 which prohibits foreign persons from violating or attempting to violate, or causing a violation of any sanctions in effect against Iran or facilitating any deceptive transactions for or on behalf of any person subject to U.S. sanctions. The Secretary
  of the Treasury may prohibit any transactions or dealings, including any U.S. capital markets financing, involving any person found to be in violation of Executive Order 13608. Also in 2012, the U.S. enacted the Iran Threat Reduction and Syria Human Rights Act of 2012, or the ITRA, which created
  new sanctions and strengthened existing sanctions. Among other things, the ITRA intensifies existing sanctions regarding the provision of goods, services, infrastructure or technology to Irans petroleum or petrochemical sector. The ITRA also includes a provision requiring the President of the United
  States to impose five or more sanctions from Section 6(a) of the Iran Sanctions Act, as amended, on a person the President determines is a controlling beneficial owner of, or otherwise owns, operates, or controls or insures a vessel that was used to transport crude oil from Iran to another country and (1)
  if the person is a controlling beneficial owner of the vessel, the person had actual knowledge the vessel was so used or (2) if the person otherwise owns, operates, or controls, or insures the vessel, the person knew or should have known the vessel was so used. Such a person could be subject to a variety
  of sanctions, including exclusion from U.S. capital markets, exclusion from financial transactions subject to U.S. jurisdiction, and exclusion of such persons vessels from U.S. ports for up to two years. The ITRA also includes a requirement that issuers of securities must disclose to the SEC in their annual
  and quarterly reports filed after February 6, 2013 whether the issuer or any affiliate has knowingly engaged in certain sanctioned activities involving Iran during the timeframe covered by the report. Finally, in January 2013, the U.S. enacted the Iran Freedom and Counter-Proliferation Act of 2012
  which expanded the scope of U.S. sanctions on any person that is part of Irans energy, shipping or shipbuilding sector and operators of ports in Iran, and imposes penalties on any person who facilitates or otherwise knowingly provides significant financial, material or other support to these entities.
Although the ships we own and those we manage have not called on ports in countries subject to sanctions or embargoes or in countries identified as state sponsors of terrorism, including Iran, North Korea and Syria, we cannot assure you that these ships will not call on ports in these countries in
  the future. While we intend to maintain compliance with all sanctions and embargoes applicable to us, U.S. and international sanctions and embargo laws and regulations do not necessarily apply to the same countries or proscribe the same activities, which may make compliance difficult. Additionally, the
  scope of certain laws may be unclear, and these laws may be subject to changing interpretations and application and may be amended or strengthened from time to time, including by adding or removing countries from the proscribed lists. Violations of sanctions and embargo laws and regulations could
  result in fines or other penalties and could result in some investors deciding, or being required, to divest their investment, or not to invest, in us.
Failure to comply with the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and other anti-bribery legislation in other jurisdictions could result in fines, criminal penalties, contract terminations and an adverse effect on our business.
We may operate in a number of countries through the world, including countries known to have a reputation for corruption. We are committed to doing business in accordance with applicable anti-corruption laws and have adopted a code of business conduct and ethics which is consistent and in full
  compliance with the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, or the FCPA. We are subject, however, to the risk that we, our affiliated entities or our or their respective officers, directors, employees and agents may take actions determined to be in violation of such anti-corruption laws, including the
  FCPA. Any such violation could result in substantial fines, sanctions, civil and/or criminal penalties, curtailment of operations in certain jurisdictions, and might adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition. In addition, actual or alleged violations could damage our reputation
  and ability to do business. Furthermore, detecting,
14

investigating, and resolving actual or alleged violations is expensive and can consume significant time and attention of our senior management.
Reliability of suppliers may limit our ability to obtain supplies and services when needed.
We rely, and will in the future rely, on a significant supply of consumables, spare parts and equipment to operate, maintain, repair and upgrade our fleet of ships. Delays in delivery or unavailability of supplies could result in off-hire days due to consequent delays in the repair and maintenance of our
  fleet. This would negatively impact our revenues and cash flows. Cost increases could also negatively impact our future operations, although the impact of significant cost increases may be mitigated to some extent with respect to the vessels that are employed under charter contracts with automatic
  periodic adjustment provisions or cost review provisions.
Governments could requisition our ships during a period of war or emergency, resulting in loss of earnings.
The government of a jurisdiction where one or more of our ships are registered could requisition for title or seize our ships. Requisition for title occurs when a government takes control of a ship and becomes its owner. Also, a government could requisition our ships for hire. Requisition for hire
  occurs when a government takes control of a ship and effectively becomes the charterer at dictated charter rates. Generally, requisitions occur during a period of war or emergency, although governments may elect to requisition ships in other circumstances. Although we would expect to be entitled to
  government compensation in the event of a requisition of one or more of our ships, the amount and timing of payments, if any, would be uncertain. A government requisition of one or more of our ships would result in off-hire days under our time charters and may cause us to breach covenants in certain
  of our credit facilities, and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, including cash available for dividends to our shareholders.
Maritime claimants could arrest our ships, which could interrupt our cash flows.
Crew members, suppliers of goods and services to a ship, shippers or receivers of cargo and other parties may be entitled to a maritime lien against a ship for unsatisfied debts, claims or damages. In many jurisdictions, a maritime lienholder may enforce its lien by arresting a ship. The arrest or
  attachment of one or more of our ships which is not timely discharged could cause us to default on a charter or breach covenants in certain of our credit facilities and, to the extent such arrest or attachment is not covered by our protection and indemnity insurance, could require us to pay large sums of
  money to have the arrest or attachment lifted. Any of these occurrences could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, including cash available for dividends to our shareholders.
Additionally, in some jurisdictions, such as the Republic of South Africa, under the sister ship theory of liability, a claimant may arrest both the ship that is subject to the claimants maritime lien and any associated ship, which is any ship owned or controlled by the same owner. Claimants could
  try to assert sister ship liability against one ship in our fleet for claims relating to another of our ships.
We may be subject to litigation that could have an adverse effect on us.
We may in the future be involved from time to time in litigation matters. These matters may include, among other things, contract disputes, personal injury claims, environmental claims or proceedings, toxic tort claims, employment matters and governmental claims for taxes or duties, as well as other
  litigation that arises in the ordinary course of our business. We cannot predict with certainty the outcome of any claim or other litigation matter. The ultimate outcome of any litigation matter and the potential costs associated with prosecuting or defending such lawsuits, including the diversion of
  managements attention to these matters, could have an adverse effect on us and, in the
15

event of litigation that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on us, could lead to an event of default under certain of our credit facilities.
Risks Related to Our Business
Any limitation in the availability or operation of our ships could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Our owned fleet consists of eight LNG carriers that are in operation and seven newbuildings on order. In addition, in January 2014 we announced an agreement with Methane Services Limited, or MSL, an affiliate of BG Group, to purchase three 145,000 cbm steam-powered LNG carriers, and to
  charter those ships back to BG Group for six-year initial terms, or the Pending Vessel Acquisition. If any of our ships is unable to generate revenues for any significant period of time for any reason, including unexpected periods of off-hire, early charter termination or failure to secure employment for
  any ships for which we have not secured charters, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, including cash available for dividends to our shareholders, could be materially and adversely affected. The impact of any limitation in the operation of our ships or any early charter
  termination would be amplified during the period prior to delivery of our newbuildings, as a substantial portion of our cash flows and income are dependent on the revenues earned by the chartering of our eight LNG carriers in operation and the three ships to be acquired under the Pending Vessel
  Acquisition. In addition, the costs of ship repairs are unpredictable and can be substantial. In the event of repair costs that are not covered by our insurance policies, we may have to pay for such repair costs, which would decrease our earnings and cash flows, including cash available for dividends to our
  shareholders.
Our vessel ownership segment has a limited operating history.
We have provided LNG ship management services through our subsidiary GasLog LNG Services Ltd. or GasLog LNG Services since 2001, but our vessel ownership operating segment has a more limited operating history. The principal assets of our vessel ownership segment are our eight wholly
  owned LNG carriers delivered in 2010 and 2013. As we take delivery of our seven newbuildings on order and the three ships to be acquired under the Pending Vessel Acquisition, an increasingly large portion of our operating results will depend on the performance of our vessel ownership segment.
  Accordingly, we expect our future operating results to differ materially from our historical operating results.
We depend upon two customers for nearly all of our revenues. The loss of either or both of these customers would result in a significant loss of revenues and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
We have historically derived nearly all of our revenues from one customer, BG Group plc or BG Group. For the year ended December 31, 2013, BG Group accounted for 90.7% of our revenues. Following the delivery of our seven new LNG carriers on order and the three ships to be acquired
  under the Pending Vessel Acquisition, they will continue to be a key customer, as four of our newbuildings and the three ships to be acquired under the Pending Vessel Acquisition will be chartered to a subsidiary of BG Group upon delivery for a total of 13 ships chartered to BG Group. Of the
  remaining three newbuildings, one will be chartered to a subsidiary of Shell. We could lose a customer or the benefits of our time charter or ship management arrangements for many different reasons, including if the customer is unable or unwilling to make charter hire or other payments to us because of
  a deterioration in its financial condition, disagreements with us or otherwise. If either or both of these customers terminates its charters, chooses not to re-charter our ships after the initial charter terms or is unable to perform under its charters and we are not able to find replacement charters, we will
  suffer a loss of revenues that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, including cash available for dividends to our shareholders. Our revenues would also be impacted if BG Group terminates or is unable to perform under our ship
  management contracts.

Any charter termination could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Our charterers have the right to terminate a ships time charter in certain circumstances, such as:

    
    
    
    loss of the ship or damage to it beyond repair;
    
    
    
    if the ship is off-hire for any reason other than scheduled drydocking for a period exceeding 90 consecutive days, or for more than 90 days or 110 days, depending on the charter, in any one-year period;
    
    
    
    defaults by us in our obligations under the charter; or
    
    
    
    the outbreak of war or hostilities involving two or more major nations, such as the United States or the Peoples Republic of China, that would materially and adversely affect the trading of the ship for a period of at least 30 days.A termination right under one ships time charter would not automatically give the charterer the right to terminate its other charter contracts with us. However, a charter termination could materially affect our relationship with the customer and our reputation in the LNG shipping industry, and in
  some circumstances the event giving rise to the termination right could potentially impact multiple charters. Accordingly, the existence of any right of termination could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, including cash available for
  dividends to our shareholders.
If we lose a charter, we may be unable to obtain a new time charter on terms as favorable to us or with a charterer of comparable standing, particularly if we are seeking new time charters at a time when charter rates in the LNG industry are depressed. Consequently, we may have an increased
  exposure to the volatile spot market, which is highly competitive and subject to significant price fluctuations. In the event that we are unable to re-deploy a ship for which a charter has been terminated, we will not receive any revenues from that ship, and we may be required to pay expenses necessary to
  maintain the ship in proper operating condition. In addition, in the event of a charter termination we could be required under certain of our credit facilities to deposit cash in an account held with the applicable lender until we have obtained a new time charter on terms acceptable to such lender, which
  could restrict our cash available for dividends to our shareholders.
Our ship management agreements may be terminated with limited advance notice.
Unlike our time charters, our ship management agreements with a subsidiary of BG Group and Egypt LNG may be terminated at any time by either party with a short period of advance notice. In the event that a ship management agreement is terminated by BG Group other than in connection
  with the sale of a ship, BG Group would generally be entitled to immediately terminate the ship management agreements for the other ships we manage on its behalf. If a customer were to terminate our ship management agreements, we may be unable to find new customers for our ship management
  services or we may choose not to continue providing ship management services to third-party customers, which could adversely impact our revenues and cash flows, including cash available for dividends to our shareholders.
Due to our lack of diversification, adverse developments in the LNG transportation industry could adversely affect our business, particularly if such developments occur at a time when we are seeking a new charter.
Due to our lack of diversification, an adverse development in the LNG transportation industry could have a significantly greater impact on our business, particularly if such developments occur at a time when our ships are not under charter or nearing the end of their charters, than if we maintained
  more diverse assets or lines of businesses.
17

Our contracts for the seven newbuildings we have on order are subject to risks that could cause delays in the delivery of the ships, which could adversely affect our results of operations and cash flows.
Our seven contracted newbuildings are scheduled to be delivered to us on various dates between 2014 and 2016. Significant delays in the delivery of one or more of these ships, which are expected to generate a substantial portion of our contracted revenue in future years, would delay our receipt of
  revenues under the related time charters. For prolonged delays, the customer may terminate the charter and, in addition to the resulting loss of revenues, we may be responsible for additional substantial liquidated damages, which could adversely affect our anticipated results of operations and cash flows,
  including cash available for dividends to our shareholders. In addition, the delivery of any of these ships with substantial defects or unexpected operational problems could have similar consequences.
The delivery of a newbuilding could be delayed because of numerous factors, including, but not limited to:

    
    
    
    shortages of equipment, materials or skilled labor;
    
    
    
    delays in the receipt of necessary construction materials, such as steel, or equipment, such as engines or generators;
    
    
    
    failure of equipment to meet quality and/or performance standards;
    
    
    
    the shipyards over-committing to new ships to be constructed;
    
    
    
    changes in governmental regulations or maritime self-regulatory organization standards;
    
    
    
    political or economic disturbances;
    
    
    
    financial or operating difficulties experienced by equipment vendors or the shipyard;
    
    
    
    required changes to the original ship specifications;
    
    
    
    inability to obtain required permits or approvals;
    
    
    
    disputes with the shipyard;
    
    
    
    inability to finance the construction or conversion of the vessels;
    
    
    
    work stoppages and other labor disputes; and
    
    
    
    adverse weather conditions or any other events of force majeure, including war or hostilities between South Korea, where we have ships on order at Samsung Heavy Industries, and North Korea.GasLog cannot assure that it will complete the Pending Vessel Acquisition.
If GasLog cannot complete the purchase of any of the three ships to be acquired under the Pending Vessel Acquisition for any reason, GasLog will have the discretion to apply the available funds for general corporate purposes, including the acquisition of other ships. Any alternative use of proceeds
  may not generate as much cash flow as the ships to be acquired in the Pending Vessel Acquisition. For more information on the Pending Vessel Acquisition, see Item 4. Information on the CompanyB. Business OverviewOur Fleet.
As we take delivery of our newbuildings, we will need to expand our staff and crew. If we cannot recruit and retain employees and provide adequate compensation, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows may be adversely affected.
Our ability to acquire and retain customers depends on a number of factors, including our ability to man our ships with masters, officers and crews of suitable experience in operating LNG carriers. As we take delivery of our newbuildings, we expect to hire a significant number of seafarers qualified
  to man and operate our new ships, as well as additional shoreside personnel. As the global LNG carrier fleet continues to grow, we expect the demand for technically skilled and experienced officers and crew to increase. This could lead to an industry-wide shortfall of qualified
18

personnel, resulting in increased crew costs, which could constrain our ability to recruit suitable employees to operate our LNG carriers within our budget parameters.
Material increases in crew costs could adversely affect our results of operations and cash flows. In addition, if we cannot recruit and retain sufficient numbers of quality on-board seafaring personnel, we may not be able to fully utilize our expanded fleet, which could have a material adverse effect on
  our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, including cash available for dividends to our shareholders.
We must make substantial capital expenditures to acquire the seven newbuildings we have on order and any additional ships we may acquire in the future.
We are obligated to make substantial capital expenditures to fund our commitments for the seven newbuildings we have on order. We are scheduled to take delivery of the ships on various dates between 2014 and 2016. As of March 26, 2014, the total remaining balance of the contract prices for the
  seven ships was $1.26 billion, which amounts are payable under each shipbuilding contract in installments upon the attainment of certain specified milestones. The largest portion of the purchase price for each ship will come due upon its delivery to us from the shipyard. We intend to fund these
  commitments with available cash, cash from operations, and borrowings under our loan agreement with an aggregate undrawn amount of $435 million as of March 26, 2014. As of March 26, 2014, financing was not secured for $798 million related to the remaining balance of the contract price of four of
  our ships.
To the extent that we are unable to draw down the amounts committed under our credit facilities, whether due to our failure to comply with the terms of such facilities including vessel employment conditions or the lenders failure to fund the committed amounts, we will need to find alternative
  financing. If we are unable to find alternative financing, we will not be capable of funding all of our commitments for capital expenditures relating to our seven contracted newbuildings. In the event that we fail to meet our payment obligations under a shipbuilding contract, we would be in default under
  the applicable contract and the shipbuilder would have the option of cancelling the contract and retaining any previously funded installment payments, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, including cash available for dividends
  to our shareholders.
In addition, we may choose to make substantial capital expenditures to expand the size of our fleet in the future. In order to exercise our options with Samsung Heavy Industries to purchase up to six additional newbuildings, we would need to obtain financing on terms acceptable to us. We expect to
  finance the cost of any new ships through available cash, cash from operations and debt or equity financings. Our ability to obtain bank financing or to access the capital markets may be limited by our financial condition at the time of any such financing or offering, as well as by adverse market
  conditions resulting from, among other things, general economic conditions, changes in the LNG industry and further contingencies and uncertainties that are beyond our control. Even if we are successful in obtaining necessary funds, the terms of any debt financings could limit our ability to further
  expand our fleet and to pay dividends to our shareholders.
We may have difficulty further expanding our fleet in the future.
We may expand our fleet beyond our contracted newbuildings by ordering additional newbuildings or by making selective acquisitions of high-quality secondhand ships to the extent that they are available in the same way that we acquired the GasLog Chelseaand will acquire the three ships under
  the Pending Vessel Acquisition. Our future growth will depend on numerous factors, some of which are beyond our control, including our ability to:

    
    
    
    identify attractive ship acquisition opportunities and consummate such acquisitions;
    
    
    
    obtain newbuilding contracts at acceptable prices;
    
    
    
    obtain required financing on acceptable terms;
    
    
    
    secure charter arrangements on terms acceptable to our lenders;19


    
    
    
    expand our relationships with existing customers and establish new customer relationships;
    
    
    
    recruit and retain additional suitably qualified and experienced seafarers and shore-based employees;
    
    
    
    continue to meet technical and safety performance standards;
    
    
    
    manage joint ventures; and
    
    
    
    manage the expansion of our operations to integrate the new ships into our fleet.During periods in which charter rates are high, ship values are generally high as well, and it may be difficult to consummate ship acquisitions or enter into shipbuilding contracts at favorable prices. In addition, any ship acquisition we complete may not be profitable at or after the time of acquisition
  and may not generate cash flows sufficient to justify the investment. We may not be successful in executing any future growth plans, and we cannot give any assurances that we will not incur significant expenses and losses in connection with such growth efforts.
Our credit facilities are secured by our ships and contain payment obligations and restrictive covenants that may restrict our business and financing activities as well as our ability to pay dividends. A failure by us to meet our obligations under our credit facilities could result in an event of default
  under such credit facilities and foreclosure on our ships.
Our credit facilities impose, and any future credit facility we enter into will impose, operating and financial restrictions on us. These restrictions in our credit facilities generally limit our shipowning subsidiaries ability to, among other things:

    
    
    
    incur additional indebtedness, create liens or provide guarantees;
    
    
    
    provide any form of credit or financial assistance to, or enter into any non-arms length transactions with, us or any of our affiliates;
    
    
    
    sell or otherwise dispose of assets, including our ships;
    
    
    
    engage in merger transactions;
    
    
    
    enter into, terminate or amend any charter;
    
    
    
    amend our shipbuilding contracts;
    
    
    
    change the manager of our ships;
    
    
    
    undergo a change in ownership; or
    
    
    
    acquire assets, make investments or enter into any joint venture agreements outside the ordinary course of business.Our credit facilities also impose certain restrictions relating to us and our other subsidiaries, including restrictions that limit our ability to make any substantial change in the nature of our business or to engage in transactions that would constitute a change of control, as defined in the relevant credit
  facility, without repaying all of our indebtedness in full, or to allow our largest shareholders to reduce their shareholding in us below specified thresholds.
Our credit facilities also impose specified financial covenants that apply to us and our subsidiaries on a consolidated basis. These financial covenants include the following:

    
    
    
    our net working capital (excluding the current portion of long-term debt) must be positive;
    
    
    
    our total indebtedness divided by our total capitalization must not exceed 75%;
    
    
    
    beginning December 31, 2013, the ratio of EBITDA over our debt service obligations (including interest and debt repayments) on a trailing 12 months basis must be no less than 110%;
    
    
    
    beginning December 31, 2013, the aggregate amount of all unencumbered cash and cash equivalents must exceed the higher of 3% of our total indebtedness or $20 million after the first drawdown;20


    
    
    
    we are permitted to pay dividends, provided that we hold unencumbered cash equal to at least 4% of our total indebtedness, subject to no event of default having occurred or occurring as a consequence of the payment of such dividends; and
    
    
    
    our market value adjusted net worth must at all times exceed $350 million.In addition, all of our credit facilities contain covenants requiring that the fair market value of our ships remain above 120% of all amounts outstanding under the applicable facility. In the event that the value of a ship falls below the threshold, we could be required to provide the lender with
  additional security or prepay a portion of the outstanding loan balance, which could negatively impact our liquidity. If we are unable to provide such additional security or prepayment, we may be in breach of covenants under the facility.
Further, the NOK denominated bond agreement signed on June 27, 2013, or the Bond Agreement, for our NOK 500 million bond includes a dividend restriction according to which we may not (i) declare or make any dividend payment or distribution, whether in cash or in kind, (ii) repurchase any
  of our shares or undertake other similar transactions (including, but not limited to, total return swaps related to our shares), or (iii) grant any loans or make other distributions or transactions constituting a transfer of value to our shareholders (items (i), (ii) and (iii) collectively referred to as the
  Distributions) that in aggregate exceed during any calendar year 50% of our consolidated net profit after taxes based on the audited annual accounts for the previous financial year (any unutilized portion of the permitted dividend pursuant to the above may not be carried forward). Notwithstanding the
  above, for the years 2013 and 2014, we may make Distributions up to a maximum of $0.60 per share per annum subject to us, immediately after such distributions, maintaining consolidated Free Liquidity (as defined in the Bond Agreement) of not less than (i) $20,000,000 and (ii) 4% of Total
  Indebtedness (as defined in the Bond Agreement). Any net profit of a Group company related to sale of assets shall in any event not form a basis for any Distributions.
The loan agreement we entered into in March 2012 for a $272.5 million credit facility provides that the lenders thereunder will have an option that gives them the right to request repayment of the facility in full on the fifth anniversary of the delivery of the GasLog Shanghai, which was delivered in
  January 2013. If the lenders exercise this option, we may not have, or be able to obtain, sufficient funds to meet our payment obligations under the facility.
Certain of our credit facilities also contain vessel employment conditions, pursuant to which we could be required in the event of a charter termination to deposit cash in an account held with the applicable lender until we have obtained a new time charter on terms acceptable to such lender. In
  addition, we are required under one of our facilities to secure charters for the ships identified by hull numbers 2043 and 2044, on terms approved by the lenders, at least 60 days prior to the scheduled delivery date of the applicable ship.
Our ability to comply with covenants and restrictions contained in our financing arrangements may be affected by events beyond our control, including prevailing economic, financial and industry conditions. A failure to comply with covenants and restrictions or to meet our payment and other
  obligations could lead to defaults under our credit facilities which could cause our payment obligations to be accelerated. We may not have, or be able to obtain, sufficient funds to make these accelerated payments. Because obligations under our financing arrangements are secured by our ships and are
  guaranteed by our ship-owning subsidiaries, if we are unable to repay debt under our financing arrangements, the lenders could seek to foreclose on those assets, which would materially and adversely impact our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, including cash available for
  dividends to our shareholders. In addition, a default under one of our credit facilities could result in the cross-acceleration of our other indebtedness. For more information regarding our credit facilities, please read Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and ProspectsB. Liquidity and Capital
  ResourcesCredit Facilities.
21

Ship values may fluctuate substantially, which could impact our compliance with the covenants in our loan agreements and, if the values are lower at a time when we are attempting to dispose of ships, could cause us to incur a loss.
Values for ships can fluctuate substantially over time due to a number of different factors, including:

    
    
    
    prevailing economic conditions in the natural gas and energy markets;
    
    
    
    a substantial or extended decline in demand for LNG;
    
    
    
    the level of worldwide LNG production and exports;
    
    
    
    changes in the supply-demand balance of the global LNG carrier fleet;
    
    
    
    changes in prevailing charter hire rates;
    
    
    
    the physical condition of the ship;
    
    
    
    the size, age and technical specifications of the ship;
    
    
    
    demand for LNG carriers; and
    
    
    
    the cost of retrofitting or modifying existing ships, as a result of technological advances in ship design or equipment, changes in applicable environmental or other regulations or standards, customer requirements or otherwise.If the market value of our ships declines, we may breach some of the covenants contained in our credit facilities. If we do breach such covenants and we are unable to remedy the relevant breach, our lenders could accelerate our indebtedness and seek to foreclose on the ships in our fleet securing
  those credit facilities. In addition, if a charter contract expires or is terminated by the customer, we may be unable to re-deploy the affected ships at attractive rates and, rather than continue to incur costs to maintain and finance them, we may seek to dispose of them. Any foreclosure on our ships, or
  any disposal by us of a ship at a time when ship prices have fallen, could result in a loss and could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, including cash available for dividends to our shareholders.
Our debt levels may limit our flexibility to obtain additional financing and pursue other business opportunities.
As of December 31, 2013, we had an aggregate of $1.06 billion of indebtedness outstanding under six credit agreements, of which $104.75 million is repayable within one year which includes $39.49 million under the revolving credit facility, and we had $82.23 million outstanding under the Bond which
  amount is payable in June 2018. As of December 31, 2013 there is an undrawn amount of $10.51 million from the revolving facility of GAS-two Ltd. from which $2.68 million was drawn in January 2014 and the balance is available to be drawn under certain conditions. In addition, there is one loan
  facility with an aggregate undrawn amount of $435 million available that will be used to finance a portion of the contract prices of three of our newbuildings on their deliveries. We may incur additional indebtedness in the future as we grow our fleet. This level of debt could have important consequences
  to us, including the following:

    
    
    
    our ability to obtain additional financing, if necessary, for working capital, capital expenditures, ship acquisitions or other purposes may be impaired or such financing may not be available on favorable terms;
    
    
    
    our costs of borrowing could increase as we become more leveraged;
    
    
    
    we will need a substantial portion of our cash flow to make principal and interest payments on our debt, reducing the funds that would otherwise be available for operations, future business opportunities and dividends to our shareholders;
    
    
    
    our debt level may make us more vulnerable than our competitors with less debt to competitive pressures or a downturn in our industry or the economy generally; and
    
    
    
    our debt level may limit our flexibility in responding to changing business and economic conditions.22

Our ability to service our debt depends upon, among other things, our future financial and operating performance, which will be affected by prevailing economic conditions and financial, business, regulatory and other factors, some of which are beyond our control. If our operating results are not
  sufficient to service our current or future indebtedness, we will be forced to take actions such as reducing or delaying our business activities, acquisitions, investments or capital expenditures, selling assets, restructuring or refinancing our debt or seeking additional equity capital or bankruptcy protection.
  We may not be able to effect any of these remedies on satisfactory terms, or at all.
Our ability to obtain additional debt financing for future acquisitions of ships or to refinance our existing debt may depend on the creditworthiness of our charterers and the terms of our future charters.
Our ability to borrow against the ships in our existing fleet and any ships we may acquire in the future largely depends on the value of the ships, which in turn depends in part on charter hire rates and the ability of our charterers to comply with the terms of their charters. The actual or perceived
  credit quality of our charterers, and any defaults by them, may materially affect our ability to obtain the additional capital resources that we will require to purchase additional ships and to refinance our existing debt as balloon payments come due, or may significantly increase our costs of obtaining such
  capital. Our inability to obtain additional financing or committing to financing on unattractive terms could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, including cash available for dividends to our shareholders.
Our ability to pay dividends may be limited by the amount of cash we generate from operations, by restrictions in our credit facilities and by additional factors unrelated to our profitability.
We intend to pay regular quarterly dividends. The declaration and payment of any dividend is subject to the discretion of our board of directors and the requirements of Bermuda law. The timing and amount of any dividend payments will be dependent on our earnings, financial condition, cash
  requirements and availability, restrictions in our debt agreements, the provisions of Bermuda law and other factors. The amount of cash we generate from operations and the actual amount of cash we will have available for dividends will vary based upon, among other things:

    
    
    
    our earnings, financial condition and cash requirements;
    
    
    
    restrictions in our credit facilities, Bond Agreement and other financing agreements;
    
    
    
    the provisions of Bermuda law affecting the payment of dividends to shareholders;
    
    
    
    the charter hire payments we obtain from our charters as well as the rates obtained from future charters;
    
    
    
    our fleet expansion and associated uses of our cash as well as any financing requirements;
    
    
    
    delays in the delivery of newbuildings and the commencement of payments under charters relating to those ships;
    
    
    
    the level of our operating costs, such as the costs of crews and insurance, as well as the costs of repairs, maintenance or modifications of our ships;
    
    
    
    the number of unscheduled off-hire days for our fleet as well as the timing of, and number of days required for, scheduled drydocking of our ships;
    
    
    
    prevailing global and regional economic or political conditions;
    
    
    
    changes in interest rates;
    
    
    
    the effect of governmental regulations and maritime self-regulatory organization standards on the conduct of our business;
    
    
    
    changes in the basis of taxation of our activities in various jurisdictions;
    
    
    
    modification or revocation of our dividend policy by our board of directors; and
    
    
    
    the amount of any cash reserves established by our board of directors.23

The amount of cash we generate from our operations may differ materially from our profit or loss for the period, which will be affected by non-cash items. We may incur other expenses or liabilities that could reduce or eliminate the cash available for dividends.
Under Bermuda law, a company may not declare or pay dividends if there are reasonable grounds for believing that: (i) the company is, or would after the payment be, unable to pay its liabilities as they become due; or (ii) the realizable value of the companys assets would thereby be less than its
  liabilities. Under our bye-laws, each common share is entitled to dividends as and when any such dividends are declared by our board of directors.
As a result of these and the other factors mentioned above, we may pay dividends during periods when we record losses and may not pay dividends during periods when we record a profit. We can give no assurance that dividends will be paid in the future.
We are a holding company and we depend on the ability of our subsidiaries to distribute funds to us in order to satisfy our financial obligations and to make dividend payments.
We are a holding company. Our subsidiaries conduct substantially all of our operations and own all of our operating assets, including our ships. We have no significant assets other than the equity interests in our subsidiaries. As a result, our ability to pay our obligations and to make dividend
  payments depends entirely on our subsidiaries and their ability to distribute funds to us. The ability of a subsidiary to make these distributions could be affected by a claim or other action by a third party, including a creditor, or by the law of its jurisdiction of incorporation which regulates the payment of
  dividends. If we are unable to obtain funds from our subsidiaries, our board of directors may exercise its discretion not to declare or pay dividends.
Fluctuations in exchange rates and interest rates could result in financial losses for us.
Fluctuations in currency exchange rates and interest rates may have an impact on our financial performance. We receive virtually all of our revenues in dollars, while some of our operating expenses, including employee costs and certain crew costs, are denominated in euros. As a result, we are
  exposed to a foreign exchange risk. However, we also maintain cash balances in euros, which amounted to approximately $8.66 million as of December 31, 2013. Although we monitor exchange rate fluctuations on a continuous basis, we do not currently hedge movements in currency exchange rates. As a
  result, there is a risk that currency fluctuations will have a negative effect on our cash flows and results of operations.
In addition, we are exposed to a market risk relating to fluctuations in interest rates because our credit facilities bear interest costs at a floating rate based on London Interbank Offered Rate, or LIBOR. Significant increases in LIBOR rates could adversely affect our cash flows, results of operations
  and ability to service our debt. Although we use interest rate swaps from time to time to reduce our exposure to interest rate risk, we hedge only a portion of our outstanding indebtedness. There is no assurance that our derivative contracts will provide adequate protection against adverse changes in
  interest rates or that our bank counterparties will be able to perform their obligations.
The derivative contracts used to hedge our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates could result in reductions in our shareholders equity as well as charges against our profit.
We enter into interest rate swaps from time to time for purposes of managing our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates applicable to floating rate indebtedness. As of December 31, 2013, we had 18 interest rate swaps in place with a notional amount of $937.61 million. For the 6 interest rate
  swaps that have been designated as cash flow hedging instruments, the changes in the fair value of the contracts are recognized in our statement of other comprehensive income as cash flow hedge gains or losses for the period, and could affect compliance with the market value adjusted net worth
  covenants in our credit facilities. In addition, the changes in the fair value of the 12 derivative contracts that have not been designated as cash flow hedging instruments are recognized in our statement of profit or loss. Changes in the fair value of any derivative contracts that do not qualify for treatment
  as cash flow hedges for financial reporting purposes would affect, among other things,
24

our profit, earnings per share and affect compliance with the market value adjusted net worth covenants in our credit facilities.
In June 2013, we entered into three Cross Currency Swaps, or CCSs, to exchange interest payments and principal on maturity on the same terms as the Bond Agreement, in order to hedge the variability of the functional currency equivalent cash flows on the bond. As of December 31, 2013, the
  three CCSs had a notional amount of $83.21 million and qualified as cash flow hedging instruments for accounting purposes. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of CCSs is recognized in other comprehensive income while the ineffective portion impacts the statement of profit or loss for the
  period.
There is no assurance that our derivative contracts will provide adequate protection against adverse changes in interest rates or that our bank counterparties will be able to perform their obligations. In addition, as a result of the implementation of new regulation of the swaps markets in the United
  States, the European Union and elsewhere over the next few years, the cost and availability of interest rate and currency hedges may increase or suitable hedges may not be available.
Our earnings and business are subject to the credit risk associated with our contractual counterparties.
We enter into, among other things, time charters, ship management agreements and other contracts with our customers, shipbuilding contracts and refund guarantees relating to newbuildings, credit facilities and commitment letters with banks, insurance contracts and interest rate swaps. Such
  agreements subject us to counterparty credit risk. The ability and willingness of each of our counterparties to perform its obligations under a contract with us will depend upon a number of factors that are beyond our control and may include, among other things, general economic conditions, the condition
  of the natural gas and LNG markets and charter hire rates. Should a counterparty fail to honor its obligations under agreements with us, we could sustain significant losses which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, including
  cash available for dividends to our shareholders.
Our business depends on certain of our senior executives who may not necessarily continue to work for us.
Our success depends to a significant extent upon the abilities and the efforts of our Chairman, Peter G. Livanos, and certain of our senior executives. Mr. Livanos has substantial experience in the shipping industry and has worked with us for many years. He and certain of our senior executives are
  important to the execution of our business strategies and to the growth and development of our business. If Mr. Livanos or one or more of our senior executives ceased to be affiliated with us, we may be unable to recruit other employees with equivalent talent and experience, and our business and
  financial condition could suffer.
We are a partial owner of Egypt LNG Shipping Ltd. The dividends we receive on account of our ownership interest may decline in the future and we may have to write down the value of our investment.
We currently own a 25% stake in Egypt LNG Shipping Ltd., or Egypt LNG, an entity whose principal asset is the LNG carrier Methane Nile Eagle, which is currently operating under a 20-year time charter with a subsidiary of BG Group. The declaration and payment of dividends by Egypt LNG
  is subject to the discretion of its board of directors, which we do not control, as well as other restrictions, including a minimum cash reserve requirement. As a result, the dividends we receive on account of our ownership interest may decline in the future, which would adversely impact our cash flows,
  including cash available for dividends to our shareholders. In the event of an adverse change in the operating results of Egypt LNG resulting from, among other things, unscheduled off-hire days, damage to or loss of the Methane Nile Eagleor early termination of the ships charter, we would expect the
  amount of dividends we receive to be reduced or eliminated, and we may be required to
25

record an impairment of our investment. The loss may limit our ability to borrow against our assets for future credit and could also adversely affect our share price. In addition, we have entered into a shareholders agreement with the other shareholders of Egypt LNG that imposes restrictions, including
  preemption rights, on each partys ability to transfer, grant any security interest over or otherwise dispose of its ownership interest.
Because the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board is not currently permitted to inspect our independent accounting firm, you may not benefit from such inspections.
Auditors of U.S. public companies are required by law to undergo periodic Public Company Accounting Oversight Board or PCAOB inspections that assess their compliance with U.S. law and professional standards in connection with performance of audits of financial statements filed with the SEC.
  Certain European Union countries, including Greece, do not currently permit the PCAOB to conduct inspections of accounting firms established and operating in such European Union countries, even if they are part of major international firms. The PCAOB conducted inspections in Greece in 2008 and
  evaluated our auditors performance of audits of SEC registrants and our auditors quality controls. Currently, however, the PCAOB is unable to conduct inspections in Greece until a cooperation agreement between the PCAOB and the Greek Accounting & Auditing Standards Oversight Board is reached.
  Accordingly, unlike for most U.S. public companies, should the PCAOB again wish to conduct an inspection it is currently prevented from evaluating our auditors performance of audits and its quality control procedures, and, unlike shareholders of most U.S. public companies, our shareholders would be
  deprived of the possible benefits of such inspections.
The formation of a master limited partnership, or MLP, for purposes of the proposed MLP initial public offering may involve issuance of interests to third parties representing a substantial portion of our assets.
In February 2014, we made a confidential submission to the SEC of a draft registration statement on Form F-1 for an initial public offering of units in a MLP to be formed to own certain of our LNG carriers with multi-year charter contracts. If we complete the proposed MLP initial public offering,
  we would contribute certain of our ships or ship-owning subsidiaries to a master limited partnership on terms with which you may not agree or may believe are not in the best interests of the holders of our common shares. The master limited partnership would issue equity securities to public or private
  investors and apply the substantial part of the proceeds to reduce ship-related indebtedness. While any such transaction would reduce our overall indebtedness, it would also reduce our indirect percentage interest in the transferred ships (and ship-owning subsidiaries) and our rights to cash flows related to
  the transferred ships. There is no assurance that the proposed MLP initial public offering will be consummated. See Item 4. Information on the CompanyB. Business OverviewOur Fleet.
Risks Related to Our Common Shares
The price of our common shares may be volatile.
The price of our common shares may be volatile and may fluctuate due to factors including:

    
    
    
    actual or anticipated fluctuations in quarterly and annual results;
    
    
    
    fluctuations in the seaborne transportation industry, including fluctuations in the LNG carrier market;
    
    
    
    mergers and strategic alliances in the shipping industry;
    
    
    
    changes in governmental regulations or maritime self-regulatory organizations standards;
    
    
    
    shortfalls in our operating results from levels forecasted by securities analysts;
    
    
    
    our payment of dividends;
    
    
    
    announcements concerning us or our competitors;26


    
    
    
    the failure of securities analysts to publish research about us, or analysts making changes in their financial estimates;
    
    
    
    general economic conditions;
    
    
    
    terrorist acts;
    
    
    
    future sales of our shares or other securities;
    
    
    
    investors perceptions of us and the LNG shipping industry;
    
    
    
    the general state of the securities markets; and
    
    
    
    other developments affecting us, our industry or our competitors.Securities markets worldwide are experiencing significant price and volume fluctuations. The market price for our common shares may also be volatile. This market volatility, as well as general economic, market or political conditions, could reduce the market price of our common shares despite our
  operating performance.
Increases in interest rates may cause the market price of our common shares to decline.
An increase in interest rates may cause a corresponding decline in demand for equity investments in general. Any such increase in interest rates or reduction in demand for our common shares resulting from other relatively more attractive investment opportunities may cause the trading price of our
  common shares to decline.
We are a foreign private issuer under the NYSE rules, and as such we are entitled to exemption from certain NYSE corporate governance standards, and you may not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all of the NYSE corporate governance
  requirements.
We are a foreign private issuer under the securities laws of the United States and the rules of the NYSE. Under the securities laws of the United States, foreign private issuers are subject to different disclosure requirements than U.S. domiciled registrants, as well as different financial reporting
  requirements. Under the NYSE rules, a foreign private issuer is subject to less stringent corporate governance requirements. Subject to certain exceptions, the rules of the NYSE permit a foreign private issuer to follow its home country practice in lieu of the listing requirements of the NYSE,
  including (i) the requirement that a majority of the board of directors consist of independent directors, (ii) the requirement that the nominating/corporate governance committee be composed entirely of independent directors and have a written charter addressing the committees purpose and
  responsibilities, (iii) the requirement that the compensation committee be composed entirely of independent directors and have a written charter addressing the committees purpose and responsibilities and (iv) the requirement of an annual performance evaluation of the nominating/corporate governance
  and compensation committees.
As permitted by these exemptions, as well as by our bye-laws and the laws of Bermuda, we have one or more non-independent directors serving as committee members on our compensation committee and our corporate governance and nominating committee. As a result, non-independent directors
  may, among other things, participate in fixing the compensation of our management, making share and option awards and resolving governance issues regarding our Company.
Accordingly, in the future you may not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all of the NYSE corporate governance requirements.
We are an emerging growth company and we cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make our common shares less attractive to investors.
We are an emerging growth company, as defined in the JOBS Act, and we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies. We have elected to opt out of the
27

extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards under Section 107(b) of the JOBS Act, which election is irrevocable. We cannot predict if investors will find our common shares less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our common
  shares less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common shares and our unit price may be more volatile. In addition, under the JOBS Act, our independent registered public accounting firm will not be required to attest to the effectiveness of our internal control over
  financial reporting pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act for so long as we are an emerging growth company. For as long as we take advantage of the reduced reporting obligations, the information that we provide to shareholders may be different than information provided by other public
  companies.
Future sales of our equity securities could cause the market price of our common shares to decline.
Sales of a substantial number of our common shares in the public market, or the perception that these sales could occur, may depress the market price for our common shares. These sales could also impair our ability to raise additional capital through the sale of our equity securities in the future.
In the future we may issue additional equity securities which may be pari passu with or senior to our common shares. The issuance by us of additional common shares or other equity securities that are contractually or structurally pari passu with or senior to our common shares would have the
  following effects:

    
    
    
    our shareholders proportionate ownership interest in us will decrease;
    
    
    
    the dividend amount payable per share on our common shares may be lower;
    
    
    
    the relative voting strength of each previously outstanding common share may be diminished; and
    
    
    
    the market price of our common shares may decline.Our shareholders also may elect to sell large numbers of shares held by them from time to time. The number of our common shares available for sale in the public market will be limited by restrictions applicable under securities laws.
Entities controlled by members of the Livanos families are our principal shareholders and will control the outcome of most matters on which our shareholders are entitled to vote; their interests may be different from yours.
Entities controlled by members of the Livanos family, including our Chairman, may be deemed to beneficially own approximately 41.5% of our issued and outstanding common shares. As a result of shareholding, Mr. Livanos can effectively control the outcome of most matters on which our
  shareholders are entitled to vote, including the election of our entire board of directors and other significant corporate actions. The interests of these shareholders may be different from yours.
Provisions in our organizational documents may have anti-takeover effects.
Our bye-laws contain provisions that could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us without the consent of our board of directors. These provisions require an affirmative vote of a majority of the votes attaching to all issued and outstanding shares to approve any merger, consolidation,
  amalgamation or similar transactions. Our bye-laws also provide for restrictions on the time period in which directors may be nominated.
These provisions could make it difficult for our shareholders to replace or remove our current board of directors or could have the effect of discouraging, delaying or preventing an offer by a third party to acquire us, even if the third partys offer may be considered beneficial by many shareholders.
  As a result, shareholders may be limited in their ability to obtain a premium for their shares.
28

Tax Risks
In addition to the following risk factors, you should read Item 10. Additional InformationE. Tax Considerations for a more complete discussion of the material Bermuda and U.S. Federal income tax consequences of owning and disposing of our common shares.
We will have to pay tax on U.S.-source income, which would reduce our earnings.
Under the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, the U.S. source gross transportation income of a ship-owning or chartering corporation, such as ourselves, is subject to a 4% U.S. Federal income tax without allowance for deduction, unless that corporation
  qualifies for exemption from tax under Section 883 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. U.S. source gross transportation income consists of 50% of the gross shipping income that is attributable to transportation that begins or ends, but that does not both begin and end, in
  the United States.
We do not currently qualify for this statutory tax exemption, and therefore we are subject to the 4% U.S. Federal income tax described above. We do not expect any resulting U.S. tax liability to be material or materially reduce the earnings available for distribution to our shareholders for the fiscal
  years ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2014. Changes to our business could change this expectation and in such circumstances we may attempt to qualify for the exemption from tax under Section 883. For a more detailed discussion, see the section entitled Item 10. Additional InformationE.
  Tax ConsiderationsUnited States Federal Income Tax ConsiderationsU.S. Taxation of Our Operating Income.
If we were treated as a passive foreign investment company, certain adverse U.S. Federal income tax consequences could result to U.S. shareholders.
A foreign corporation will be treated as a passive foreign investment company, or PFIC, for U.S. Federal income tax purposes if at least 75% of its gross income for any taxable year consists of certain types of passive income, or at least 50% of the average value of the corporations assets
  produce or are held for the production of those types of passive income. For purposes of these tests, passive income includes dividends, interest, gains from the sale or exchange of investment property and rents and royalties other than rents and royalties that are received from unrelated parties in
  connection with the active conduct of a trade or business. For purposes of these tests, income derived from the performance of services does not constitute passive income. U.S. shareholders of a PFIC are subject to a disadvantageous U.S. Federal income tax regime with respect to the income derived
  by the PFIC, the distributions they receive from the PFIC and the gain, if any, they derive from the sale or other disposition of their shares in the PFIC. If we are treated as a PFIC for any taxable year, we will provide information to U.S. shareholders who request such information to enable them to
  make certain elections to alleviate certain of the adverse U.S. Federal income tax consequences that would arise as a result of holding an interest in a PFIC.
Based on our method of operation, we do not believe that we are a PFIC for this taxable year. In this regard, we intend to treat the gross income we derive or are deemed to derive from our time chartering activities as services income, rather than rental income. Accordingly, we believe that our
  income from our time chartering activities does not constitute passive income, and the assets that we own and operate in connection with the production of that income do not constitute passive assets.
There is, however, no legal authority under the PFIC rules addressing our proposed method of operation. Accordingly, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, or the IRS, or a court of law may not accept our position, and there is a risk that the IRS or a court of law could determine that we are a
  PFIC. Moreover, we could constitute a PFIC for a future taxable year if there were to be changes in the nature and extent of our operations.
If the IRS were to find that we are or have been a PFIC for any taxable year, U.S. shareholders would face adverse tax consequences. Under the PFIC rules, unless those shareholders make certain elections available under the Code, such shareholders would be liable to pay U.S.
29

Federal income tax at the then prevailing income tax rates on ordinary income plus interest upon excess distributions and upon any gain from the disposition of our common shares, as if the excess distribution or gain had been recognized ratably over the shareholders holding period. Please read Item
  10. Additional InformationE. Tax ConsiderationsUnited States Federal Income Tax ConsiderationsTaxation of United States HoldersPFIC Status and Significant Tax Consequences for a more detailed discussion of the U.S. Federal income tax consequences to U.S. shareholders if we are treated as a
  PFIC.
The enactment of proposed legislation could affect whether dividends paid by us constitute qualified dividend income eligible for the preferential rate.
Legislation has been proposed in the United States Senate that would deny the preferential rate of U.S. Federal income tax currently imposed on qualified dividend income with respect to dividends received from a non-U.S. corporation, unless the non-U.S. corporation either is eligible for benefits of
  a comprehensive income tax treaty with the United States or is created or organized under the laws of a foreign country which has a comprehensive income tax system. Because Bermuda has not entered into a comprehensive income tax treaty with the United States and imposes only limited taxes on
  corporations organized under its laws, it is unlikely that we could satisfy either of these requirements. Consequently, if this legislation were enacted in its current form the preferential rate of U.S. Federal income tax discussed under the heading Item 10. Additional InformationE. Tax
  ConsiderationsUnited States Federal Income Tax ConsiderationsTaxation of United States HoldersDistributions on Our Common Shares may no longer be applicable to dividends received from us. It is not possible to predict with certainty whether or in what form the proposed legislation will be enacted.
ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY
A. History and Development of the Company
GasLog Ltd. was incorporated in Bermuda on July 16, 2003. GasLog Ltd. and its subsidiaries are primarily engaged in the ownership, operation and management of vessels in the LNG market, providing maritime services for the transportation of LNG on a worldwide basis and LNG vessel
  management services. The Group conducts its operations through its vessel-owning subsidiaries and through its vessel management services subsidiary.
Our company and its founders have a long history in shipping and in LNG carriers. Our largest shareholder is Ceres Shipping Ltd. or Ceres Shipping, whose founding familys shipping activities commenced more than 100 years ago and who is currently controlled by our Chairman, Peter G. Livanos.
  The late Mr. George P. Livanos, father of our current Chairman, established the predecessor to Ceres Shipping. Ceres Shipping also has interests in tankers, dry bulk carriers and containerships. Ceres Shipping entered the LNG sector in 2001 by undertaking the management of BG Groups owned fleet of
  LNG carriers through our subsidiary GasLog LNG Services, and in 2003 GasLog Ltd. was incorporated. Until 2010, when we took delivery of the GasLog Savannahand the GasLog Singapore, our business principally consisted of providing technical ship management services, as well as plan approval and
  construction supervision services for newbuilding LNG carriers. As a result, we have had a longer presence in LNG shipping than many other independent owners currently operating in the sector. Our members of senior management have an average of 27 years of shipping expertise. For a description of
  our historical and current capital expenditures, see Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and ProspectsB. Liquidity and Capital ResourcesCapital Expenditures.
On April 4, 2012, we completed our initial public offering, or IPO, and our common shares began trading on the New York Stock Exchange on March 30, 2012 under the ticker symbol GLOG. On January 22, 2014, we completed a follow-on public offering and concurrent private placement of
  our common shares. We maintain our principal executive offices at Gildo Pastor Center, 7 Rue du Gabian, MC 98000, Monaco. Our telephone number at that address is +377 97 97 51 15. We are registered with the Registrar of Companies in Bermuda under registration number
30

33928. We maintain a registered office in Bermuda at Clarendon House, 2 Church Street, Hamilton, HM 11, Bermuda. There have been no public takeover offers by third parties for our shares nor any public takeover offers by us for the shares of another company which have occurred during the last
  and current financial years.
B. Business Overview
Overview
We are a growth-oriented international owner, operator and manager of LNG carriers providing support to international energy companies as part of their LNG logistics chain. After giving effect to the Pending Vessel Acquisition, our owned fleet will consist of 18 wholly-owned LNG carriers,
  including 11 ships on the water (two ships delivered in 2010, five ships delivered in 2013, one on-the-water ship acquired in 2013, and the three ships being acquired pursuant to the Pending Vessel Acquisition), and seven LNG carriers on order at one of the worlds leading LNG shipbuilder, Samsung
  Heavy Industries. After giving effect to the Pending Vessel Acquisition, we will manage and operate 20 LNG carriers, which include our 11 owned ships on the water, 8 ships owned or leased by BG Group, a leading participant in the global energy and natural gas markets, and one additional LNG
  carrier in which we have a 25% interest. We are also supervising the construction of our newbuildings. After giving effect to the Pending Vessel Acquisition, 15 of our 18 owned ships including all our newbuildings are, or when delivered will be, high-specification LNG carriers equipped with modern tri-
  fuel diesel electric propulsion technology, or TFDE. We have multi-year time charter contracts for seven of the eight ships that have been delivered, five of our newbuildings on order and the three ships to be acquired under the Pending Vessel Acquisition. From December 31, 2013, these contracts are
  expected to provide total contracted revenue of $2.5 billion during their initial terms, which expire between 2015 and 2026.
In addition to our committed order book, we have options to purchase six additional LNG carriers from Samsung Heavy Industries that expire at the end of the first quarter of 2014. We also have a 25% interest in an additional ship, the Methane Nile Eagle, a 2007-built LNG carrier technically
  managed by us that is currently operating under a 20-year time charter to a subsidiary of BG Group.
The total contract price for our seven newbuildings on order as of March 26, 2014, was approximately $1.39 billion, of which $129.14 million was paid as of March 26, 2014. The balance is payable under each shipbuilding contract in installments upon the attainment of certain specified milestones, with
  the largest portion of the purchase price for each ship coming due upon its delivery. We have entered into one loan agreement with an aggregate undrawn amount of $435 million as of March 26, 2014 to finance a portion of the contract prices of three of our newbuildings on order. In January 2014, in
  connection with the Pending Vessel Acquisition, we obtained a commitment from Citibank, N.A., London Branch, or Citibank, for $325.5 million of debt financing with a two year maturity. The aggregate cost of the ships under the Pending Vessel Acquisition is $468 million, which will be financed by
  borrowings under the Citibank facility as well as proceeds from our January 2014 public offering and concurrent private placement.
Our current time charters have initial terms of up to 10 years and include options that permit the charterers to extend the terms for successive periods under hire rate provisions that are comparable to those prevailing at the end of the expiring term. We will continue to evaluate the attractiveness of
  longer and shorter term chartering opportunities as the commercial characteristics of the LNG carrier industry evolve. We have structured our order book of new LNG carriers to have staggered delivery dates, facilitating a smooth integration of the ships into our fleet as well as significant annual growth
  through 2016. This has the additional advantage of spreading our exposure to the re-employment of these ships over several years upon expiration of their current charters.
Each of our 18 owned LNG carriers is designed with a capacity of between approximately 145,000 cbm and 174,000 cbm. We believe this size range maximizes their operational flexibility, as these ships are compatible with most existing LNG terminals around the world. All but one of the LNG
  carriers in our owned fleet will be sister ships (in groups of ten, four and three ships), which
31

allows us to benefit from economies of scale and operating efficiencies in ship construction, crew training, crew rotation and shared spare parts. Upon delivery of the last of our seven contracted newbuildings in 2016 and after giving effect to the Pending Vessel Acquisition, our owned fleet will have an
  average age of 4 years, making it one of the youngest in the industry. By comparison, as of March 1, 2014, the average age for the global fleet including LNG carriers of all sizes is 10.8 years, according to Clarkson Research.
Our wholly owned subsidiary, GasLog LNG Services, exclusively handles the technical management of our fleet, including plan approval for new ship orders, supervision of ship construction and planning and supervision of drydockings, as well as technical operations, crewing, training, maintenance,
  regulatory and classification compliance and health, safety, security and environmental, or HSSE, management and reporting. As the sole technical manager of BG Groups owned fleet of LNG carriers for over 12 years, we have established a track record for the efficient, safe and reliable operation of
  LNG carriers, which is evidenced by our safety performance and the limited off-hire days of the 20 ships currently operating under our management.
With the global demand for natural gas increasing and LNGs share of the international natural gas trade expanding within the sector, we strongly believe that this is a favorable time to grow an LNG vessel owner through the addition of modern vessels. The LNG shipping business is characterized by
  significant barriers to entry, as it requires a large amount of capital, qualified ship personnel, a high degree of technical management capabilities and deep and long-standing relationships with customers and suppliers. We believe we are well positioned to access additional growth opportunities, based on
  our experience, our high standards for quality, our strong track record in LNG safety and technical management and our long-standing relationships with leading LNG charterers, shipbuilders, shipbrokers and lenders.

Pending Vessel Acquisition
On January 15, 2014 we announced an agreement with Methane Services Limited, an affiliate of BG Group, to purchase three 145,000 cbm steam-powered LNG carriers, and to charter those ships back to BG Group for six-year initial terms. BG Group will have unilateral options to extend the term
  of the time charters for two of the ships for a period of either three or five years. The ships to be acquired will be nominated by BG Group from an agreed group of six sister ships built in 2006 and 2007. We supervised the construction of all six ships for BG Group and have provided technical
  management for the ships since delivery. The aggregate cost to GasLog for the ships is expected to be approximately $468 million. We estimate that upon their acquisition, these ships will generate approximately $426.3 million of incremental contracted revenue over their initial charter terms. In
  connection with the Pending Vessel Acquisition, GasLog obtained a commitment from Citibank for $325.5 million of debt financing with a two year maturity. We expect to use borrowings under the Citibank facility as well as proceeds from our January 2014 public offering and concurrent private
  placement to fund the purchase price for the Pending Vessel Acquisition. The closing of the transaction is subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including the completion of definitive documentation and necessary financing. We expect the transaction to close in the second quarter of 2014.
Proposed Master Limited Partnership Offering
In February 2014, we made a confidential submission to the SEC of a draft registration statement on Form F-1 for an initial public offering of units in a MLP to be formed to own certain of our LNG carriers with multi-year charter contracts. The proceeds of the proposed MLP initial public offering
  would principally be used to reduce indebtedness. Completion of the proposed MLP initial public offering is subject to further board authorization as well as completion of the SEC review process.

    Indicates the expiration of the initial term. The charterers have unilateral options to extend the term of the time charters for periods ranging from 30 months to 10 years, depending on the charter and whether all extension options under the charter are exercised.The Company also currently holds six options to purchase 174,000 cbm newbuildings from Samsung, each of which would be built against a very high specification. They all have scheduled delivery dates within 2017. Four of those options are at fixed prices and two are at prices to be mutually agreed.
  Currently, all six options will expire at the end of the first quarter, 2014.
The key characteristics of our owned fleet include the following:

    
    
    
    each ship is sized at between approximately 145,000 cbm and 174,000 cbm capacity, which places our ships in the medium- to large-size class of LNG carriers; we believe this size range maximizes their operational flexibility, as these ships are compatible with most existing LNG terminals around the
      world, and minimizes excess LNG boil-off;
    
    
    
    all but one of our ships, including the newbuilds, are sister ships (in groups of ten, four and three ships);33


    
    
    
    each ship is double-hulled, which is standard in the LNG industry;
    
    
    
    each ship has a membrane containment system incorporating current industry construction standards, including guidelines and recommendations from Gaztransport and Technigaz (the designer of the membrane system) as well as updated standards from our classification society;
    
    
    
    each of our ships is modern steam powered or tri-fuel diesel electric propulsion technology;
    
    
    
    Bermuda is the flag state of each ship;
    
    
    
    each of our delivered ships has received, and each of our newbuildings is expected to receive, an ENVIRO+ notation from our classification society, which denotes compliance with its published guidelines concerning the most stringent criteria for environmental protection related to design
      characteristics, management and support systems, sea discharges and air emissions; and
    
    
    
    upon delivery of the last of our seven contracted newbuildings in 2016, our owned fleet will have an average age of 4 years, making it one of the youngest in the industry, compared to a current average age of 10.8 years for the global LNG carrier fleet including LNG carriers of all sizes as of
      March 1, 2014 (as estimated by Clarkson Research).In addition to our owned fleet, we have a 25% ownership interest in Egypt LNG Shipping Ltd., an entity whose principal asset is the Methane Nile Eagle. The Methane Nile Eagleis a 145,000 cbm LNG carrier that was built in 2007. It is currently chartered to a subsidiary of BG Group under a 20-
  year time charter, which is subject to extension for up to 10 years at BG Groups option.
Managed Fleet
Through GasLog LNG Services, we provide technical ship management services for 12 LNG carriers owned by third parties in addition to management of the eight LNG carriers currently operating in our owned fleet. We supervised the construction by Samsung Heavy Industries of each LNG carrier
  in our managed fleet, and each ship has operated under our technical management since its delivery from the shipyard.

    The Methane Nile Eagleis owned by Egypt LNG Shipping Ltd., in which we indirectly hold a 25% equity interest. BG Asia Pacific Ptd. Limited, a subsidiary of BG Group, and Eagle Gas Shipping Co. E.S.A., an entity affiliated with the government of Egypt, have 25% and 50% equity interests, respectively, in Egypt LNG Shipping Ltd.Ship Time Charters
We provide the services of our owned ships under time charters. A time charter is a contract for the use of the ship for a specified term at a daily hire rate. Under a time charter, the ship owner
34

provides crewing and other services related to the ships operation, the cost of which is covered by the hire rate, and the customer is responsible for substantially all of the ship voyage costs (including bunker fuel, port charges and canal fees and LNG boil-off).
We have entered into three master time charters with a subsidiary of BG Group that establish the general terms under which the GasLog Savannah, the GasLog Singapore, the GasLog Shanghai, the GasLog Santiago, the GasLog Sydney and the GasLog Skagen are, and the four newbuildings
  identified by hull numbers 2072, 2073, 2102 and 2103 will be, chartered to BG Group. We enter into separate confirmation memorandums for each ship in order to supplement the master time charter and specify the charter term, extension options (if any), hire rate and other provisions applicable to each
  ships charter. For the three vessels to be acquired under the Pending Vessel Acquisition we will enter into separate time charters for each vessel.
We have entered into maiden voyage time charter agreements and time charter agreements with a subsidiary of Shell, establishing the terms under which the GasLog Seattle and the newbuilding identified by hull number 2042 will be chartered to Shell.
Since delivery to GasLog, the GasLog Chelseahas been trading in the LNG shipping spot market. In 2013 the vessel completed two short term time charters.
The following discussion describes the material terms of the time charters for our owned ships.
Initial Term, Extensions and Redelivery
The initial terms of the time charters for the GasLog Savannah, the GasLog Singapore, the GasLog Shanghai, the GasLog Santiago, the GasLog Sydneyand the GasLog Skagenbegan upon delivery of the ships and will terminate in 2015, 2016, 2018, 2018, 2019 and 2021, respectively. The charter for
  the GasLog Skagenprovides for full employment for three years and a subsequent five year seasonal charter under which the ship is employed for seven months and available to accept other charters for five months. BG Group has options to extend the terms of the charters as follows: for the GasLog
  Savannahand the GasLog Singaporefor up to 7.5 years; for the GasLog Shanghai, the GasLog Santiagoand the GasLog Sydney, for up to 8 years; for the GasLog Skagenfor up to 10 years (on the seasonal charter basis); in each case at specified hire rates.
Our time charters for the four newbuildings that will be chartered to BG Group will begin upon the delivery of each ship, which is scheduled for various dates in 2016. The initial charter terms for the ships will terminate for two ships in 2026 and for two ships in 2023. BG Group has options to
  extend terms of the charters for Hulls No. 2072 and No. 2073 for up to 5 years and Hulls No. 2102 and No. 2103 for up to 8 years, all at specified hire rates.
The initial term of the time charter for the GasLog Seattlebegan, and for Hull No. 2042 will begin, upon delivery of the ship following an initial period during which the ships will operate under a maiden voyage time charter, the purpose of which is to facilitate completion by Shell of an operational
  discharge inspection of the ship. Hull No. 2042 is scheduled for delivery in 2014. The time charters for the GasLog Seattleand Hull No. 2042 will terminate in 2020 and 2021, respectively. In each case, Shell has options to extend the charter terms for up to 10 years at specified hire rates.
The initial term of the time charters for the three vessels to be acquired under the Pending Vessel Acquisition will begin upon delivery to GasLog and will terminate in 2020. BG Group will have options to extend the term of the time charters for two of the ships for an additional period of either
  three or five years beyond 2020.
The terms and period for fixtures of the GasLog Chelseavary from charter to charter, as is the nature of trading in the spot market. Commencing in mid-2014, the vessel will be fixed for an initial 7 month term with options for further extension.
Our time charters provide for redelivery of the ship to us at the expiration of the term, as such term may be extended upon the charterers exercise of its extension options (if any), or upon earlier termination of the charter (as described below). Under all of our charters, the charterer has the right to
  extend the term for most periods in which the ship is off-hire, as described below. Our
35

charter contracts do not provide the charterers with options to purchase our ships during or upon expiration of the charter term.
Hire Rate Provisions
Hire rate refers to the basic payment from the customer for use of the ship. Under all of our time charters, the hire rate is payable to us monthly in advance in U.S. dollars. Depending on the time charter contract, there are three methods by which the daily hire rate for our owned ships is
  determined:

    
    
    
    Under the first method, the hire rate includes two componentsa capital cost component and an operating cost component. The capital cost component relates to the cost of the ships purchase and is a fixed daily amount that is structured to provide a return on our invested capital. Some of the
      charters provide for the capital cost component to increase by a specified amount during any option period. The operating cost component is a fixed daily amount that increases annually at a fixed percentage. Although the daily amount of the operating cost component is fixed (subject to a specified
      annual increase), it is intended to correspond to the costs of operating the ship and related expenses. In the event of a material increase or decrease in the actual costs we incur in operating the ship, a clause in the charter provides each party the right in certain circumstances to seek a review and
      potential adjustment of the operating cost component. Under one of our time charters, the hire rate for an initial period of three years is as discussed above and the subsequent five years are a seasonal charter under which the ship is committed for seven consecutive months at a fixed monthly
      charter hire (one component) and available to accept other charters for the remaining five months.
    
    
    
    Under the second method, the hire rate includes only one component that is a fixed daily amount that will either remain the same or increase by a specified amount during any option period as compared to the firm period.
    
    
    
    Under the third method, the hire rate for an initial period of up to two years, at the charterers option, will be set at the prevailing market rate for a comparable ship, subject to a cap and a floor. Following such initial period, the hire rate will be calculated based on three componentsa capital cost
      component, an operating cost component and a ship management fee. The capital cost component is a fixed daily amount, which will increase by a specified amount during any option period. The daily amount of the operating cost component, which is intended to fully pass-through to the charterer
      the costs of operating the ship, is set annually and adjusted at the end of each year to compensate us for the actual costs we incur in operating the ship. Drydocking expenses are budgeted in advance and are reimbursed by the charterers immediately following a drydocking. The ship management
      fee is a daily amount set in line with industry practice for fees charged by ship managers and is intended to compensate us for management of the ship.The hire rates for each of our ships may be reduced if the ship does not perform to certain of its specifications or if we are in breach of our obligations under the charter. We have had no instances of hire rate reductions since the first two of our owned ships commenced operations in 2010.
Off-Hire
When a ship is off-hireor not available for servicea time charterer generally is not required to pay the hire rate, and we remain responsible for all costs, including the cost of any LNG cargo lost as boil-off during such off-hire periods. Our time charters provide an annual allowance period for us to
  schedule preventative maintenance work on the ship. A ship generally will be deemed off-hire under our time charters if there is a specified time outside of the annual allowance period when the ship is not available for the charterers use due to, among other things, operational deficiencies (including the
  failure to maintain a certain guaranteed speed), drydocking for repairs, maintenance or inspection, equipment breakdowns, deficiency of personnel or neglect of duty by the ships officers or crew, deviation from course, or delays due to accidents, quarantines, ship
36

detentions or similar problems. We have obtained loss of hire insurance to protect us against loss of income as a result of a ship being off-hire. See Risk of Loss, Insurance and Risk ManagementLoss of Hire Insurance.
All ships are drydocked at least once every five years as required by the ships classification society for a special survey. Our ships are considered to be off-hire under our time charters during such periods.
Ship Management and Maintenance
Under our time charters, we are responsible for the technical management of our ships, including engagement and provision of qualified crews, employment of armed guards for transport in certain high-risk areas, maintaining the ship, arranging supply of stores and equipment, cleaning and painting
  and ensuring compliance with applicable regulations, including licensing and certification requirements, as well as for drydocking expenses under certain charters. We provide these management services through our wholly owned subsidiary, GasLog LNG Services.
Termination and Cancellation
Under our time charters, each party has certain termination rights which include, among other things, the automatic termination of a charter upon loss of the relevant ship. Either party may elect to terminate a charter upon the occurrence of specified defaults or upon the outbreak of war or
  hostilities involving two or more major nations, such as the United States or the Peoples Republic of China, if such war or hostilities materially and adversely affect the trading of the ship for a period of at least 30 days. In addition, our charterers have the option to terminate a charter if the relevant
  ship is off-hire for any reason other than scheduled drydocking for a period exceeding 90 consecutive days, or for more than 90 days or 110 days, depending on the charter, in any one-year period. Certain of our charters give the charterer a termination option for shorter periods of off-hire, if such off-hire
  is due to an uncured breach of our obligations to maintain the applicable ship.
In addition to its termination rights, Shell has the right to convert the time charter with respect to the relevant ship into a bareboat charter upon the occurrence of specified defaults or in the event that Shells quality assurance review is not successfully completed upon delivery of the ship.
All of the time charters applicable to our newbuildings permit the charterer to cancel the charter in the event of a prolonged delay in the delivery of the ship from the shipyard, and in certain circumstances obligate us to pay liquidated damages to the charterer in the event of a less significant
  delivery delay. However, the cancellation and liquidated damages provisions in our charters are structured to mirror the provisions of our contracts with the shipyard, giving us the right to receive liquidated damages from the shipyard or cancel the shipbuilding contract in the same circumstances that
  would trigger the charterers right to cancel the charter contract or receive liquidated damages because of delivery delays.
Shipbuilding Contracts
We have entered into shipbuilding contracts with Samsung Heavy Industries in respect of each of our seven newbuildings, which have an aggregate contract price of approximately $1.39 billion. As of March 26, 2014, the outstanding balance of $1.26 billion in the aggregate was payable under each
  contract in installments upon steel cutting, keel laying and launching of the ship, with the largest portion of the purchase price for each ship coming due upon its delivery. All of our obligations under the shipbuilding contracts are payable in U.S. dollars.
37

As of December 31, 2013, our remaining payment obligations under the shipbuilding contracts were as follows:

    Amounts do not reflect an installment of $9.96 million paid in 2014.The shipbuilding contracts provide for the seven newbuildings to be delivered and ready for immediate operation on various dates in 2014 through 2016. The shipbuilding contracts require Samsung Heavy Industries to pay us liquidated damages in the event of certain delays in the delivery of a ship
  unless such delays are attributable to a force majeure event, and in the event of a prolonged delay we would have the right to cancel the contract and receive a refund of any installment payments previously made on the ship.
In the event that we fail to meet our payment obligations under a shipbuilding contract, we would be in default under the applicable contract and would be obligated to pay interest under the contract. If such a default by us were to continue for more than five business days, the delivery date of the
  applicable ship would be delayed by one day for each day that we remain in default, and if a default by us were to continue for more than 15 business days, Samsung Heavy Industries would have the option of cancelling the applicable shipbuilding contract and retaining any installment payments
  previously funded by us under the contract.
In addition to our newbuildings on order, we have options with Samsung Heavy Industries to order six additional LNG carriers. The option contracts expire at the end of the first quarter of 2014. We have not yet decided whether we will exercise the options.
Ship Management Services and Construction Supervision
Management of our owned fleet, which includes plan approval for new ship orders, supervision of ship construction and planning and supervision of drydockings, as well as technical operations, crewing, training, maintenance, regulatory and classification compliance and HSSE management and
  reporting, is provided in-house by our wholly owned subsidiary, GasLog LNG Services, an entity incorporated in Bermuda with an office in Piraeus, Greece. In addition to management of our owned fleet, through GasLog LNG Services we provide technical ship management services for a fleet of 12
  ships, which consists of 11 ships we manage on behalf of BG Group (three of which will be acquired under the Pending Vessel Acquisition) and the Methane Nile Eagle, a ship in which we have a 25% ownership interest. During the year ended December 31, 2013, ship management services provided to
  external customers accounted for approximately 7.52% of our consolidated revenues.
Construction Supervision
We supervise and manage the construction of our newbuildings through GasLog LNG Services. We have employees on-site at Samsung Heavy Industries in South Korea whose responsibilities include inspecting the ships under construction for non-conformities, attending trials of the ship and its
  machinery and equipment, consulting with the shipyard in the event of any modifications to the ships specifications, reviewing the shipyards choice of suppliers and sub-contractors and keeping our management informed of the progress of the construction. Through GasLog LNG Services, we also
  supervised the construction of the 11 LNG carriers in BG Groups owned fleet and the Methane Nile Eagle, all of which were constructed at Samsung Heavy Industries.

Technical and Operational Management
Pursuant to ship management agreements, through GasLog LNG Services we manage the day-to-day aspects of ship operations, including crewing, training, insurance, maintenance and repair, procurement of supplies, regulatory and classification compliance and HSSE management and reporting, for
  our owned fleet and for the 12 ships in our managed fleet. We utilize certain third-party sub-contractors and suppliers in carrying out our technical management responsibilities. In the case of ships owned by BG Group and Egypt LNG, the crewing and other operational costs are fully passed-through to
  the ship owner, and for our technical management services the customers pay us a management fee per ship per month.
In connection with our ship management services, we also enter into consultant service agreements pursuant to which we provide specialized services relating to the management of LNG carriers. These services include the development and installation of a ships ship management system, which
  includes installing onboard hardware and software systems and providing related training to the ships personnel.
The terms of our ship management agreements and related contracts permit the customer to terminate our services for any reason upon a short period of advance notice, and both parties have termination rights upon the occurrence of specified defaults. In the event of the loss of a ship, or the
  owners sale of a ship to a third party, the ship management agreement in respect of the ship would terminate automatically. Under our ship management agreements with BG Group, in some circumstances BG Group would obligated to reimburse us for certain crew support and severance costs incurred
  as a result of a termination of the ship management agreement by BG Group.
Competition
We operate in markets that are highly competitive and based primarily on supply and demand. Generally, competition for LNG time charters is based primarily on price, ship availability, size, age, technical specifications and condition, LNG shipping experience, quality and efficiency of ship
  operations, shipping industry relationships and reputation for customer service, and technical ability and reputation for operation of highly specialized ships. In addition, through GasLog Chelseawe operate in the spot market that covers short-term charters of one year or less.
Although we believe that we are one of the few independent owners that focus on newly-built, technically advanced LNG carriers and provide in-house technical management of the fleet, other independent shipping companies also own and operate, and in some cases manage, LNG carriers and have
  new ships under construction. There are other ship owners and managers who may also attempt to participate in the LNG market in the future. We believe that our strategy of focusing on charter contracts with initial terms of five to ten years, as well as the scale of our technical ship management
  operations, differentiates us to some extent from other independent owners.
In addition to independent owners, some of the major oil and gas producers own LNG carriers and have in the recent past contracted for the construction of new LNG carriers. National gas and shipping companies also have large fleets of LNG carriers that have expanded and may continue to
  expand. Some of these companies may compete with independent owners by using their fleets to carry LNG for third parties.
Crewing and Employees
As of December 31, 2013 we had 103 full-time employees and 23 contractors and outsourced employees, all of whom are based in our offices in Piraeus, Greece, Monaco, or the newbuildings site at Samsung Heavy Industries in South Korea. In addition to our shoreside employees and sub-
  contractors, we had approximately 1,037 seafaring staff serving on our owned and managed ships. These seafarers are retained through crewing agencies based in Ukraine, the Philippines and Spain or, in the case of Greek seafarers, through short-term employment contracts. As we take delivery of our
  newbuildings, we expect to retain a significant number of additional seafarers qualified to man and operate our new ships, as well as additional shoreside personnel. We intend to focus our hiring
39

efforts in the Ukrainian, Philippine and Spanish markets, where we have crewing agency agreements in place, and in Greece.
LNG marine transportation is a specialized area requiring technically skilled officers and crew with specialized training. We regard attracting and retaining motivated, well-qualified seagoing personnel as a top priority, and we offer our crew competitive compensation packages. In addition, we provide
  intensive onboard training for our officers and crews to instill a culture of the highest operational and safety standards. As a result, we have historically enjoyed a high retention rate among our officers and other seafarers. In 2013, our retention rate was 93.0% for senior officers, 96.0% for other officers
  and 96.7% for shore staff.
Although we have historically experienced a high retention rate for our seafarers, the demand for technically skilled officers and crews to serve on LNG carriers has been increasing as the global fleet of LNG carriers continues to grow. This increased demand has and may continue to put inflationary
  pressure on crew costs. However, we expect that the impact of cost increases would be mitigated to some extent by certain provisions in our time charters, including review provisions and cost pass-through provisions.
Classification, Inspection and Maintenance
Every large, commercial seagoing ship must be classed by a classification society. The classification society certifies that the ship is in class, signifying that the ship has been built and maintained in accordance with the rules of the classification society and complies with applicable rules and
  regulations of the ships country of registry and the international conventions of which that country is a member. In addition, where surveys are required by international conventions and corresponding laws and ordinances of a flag state, the classification society will undertake them on application or by
  official order, acting on behalf of the authorities concerned. The classification society also undertakes on request other surveys and checks that are required by regulations and requirements of the flag state. These surveys are subject to agreements made in each individual case and/or to the regulations of
  the country concerned.
To ensure each ship is maintained in accordance with classification society standards and for maintenance of the class certificate, regular and extraordinary surveys of hull and machinery, including the electrical plant, and any special equipment classed are required to be performed periodically. Surveys
  are based on a five-year cycle that consists of annual surveys, intermediate surveys that are typically completed between the second and third years of every five-year cycle, and comprehensive special surveys (also known as class renewal surveys) that are completed at each fifth anniversary of the ships
  delivery.
All areas subject to surveys as defined by the classification society are required to be surveyed at least once per five-year class cycle, unless shorter intervals between surveys are otherwise prescribed. All ships are also required to be drydocked at least once during every five-year class cycle for
  inspection of their underwater parts and for repairs related to inspections. If any defects are found, the classification surveyor will issue a recommendation which must be rectified by the ship owner within prescribed time limits. We intend to drydock our ships at five-year intervals that coincide with the
  completion of the ships special survey.
Most insurance underwriters make it a condition for insurance coverage that a ship be certified as in class by a classification society that is a member of the International Association of Classification Societies. All but one of our delivered ships is certified by the American Bureau of Shipping, or
  ABS; the other delivered ship is certified by the Det Norske Veritas. Each ship has been awarded ISM certification and is currently in class. Under our shipbuilding contracts, all of our contracted newbuildings must be certified prior to delivery to us.

    2021Risk of Loss, Insurance and Risk Management
The operation of any ship has inherent risks. These risks include mechanical failure, personal injury, collision, property loss or damage, ship or cargo loss or damage and business interruption due to a number of reasons, including mechanical failure, political circumstances in foreign countries,
  hostilities and labor strikes. In addition, there is always an inherent possibility of marine disaster, including explosion, spills and other environmental mishaps, and the liabilities arising from owning and operating ships in international trade.
We maintain hull and machinery insurance on all our owned ships against marine and war risks in amounts that we believe to be prudent to cover such risks. In addition, we maintain protection and indemnity insurance on all our owned ships up to the maximum insurable limit available at any given
  time. We also maintain ship manager insurance in respect of our managed fleet. While we believe that our insurance coverage will be adequate, not all risks can be insured, and there can be no guarantee that we will always be able to obtain adequate insurance coverage at reasonable rates or at all, or
  that any specific claim we may make under our insurance coverage will be paid.
Hull & Machinery Marine Risks Insurance and Hull & Machinery War Risks Insurance
We maintain hull and machinery marine risks insurance and hull and machinery war risks insurance on our owned ships, which cover loss of or damage to a ship due to marine perils such as collisions, fire or lightning, and loss of or damage to a ship due to war perils such as acts of war, terrorism or
  piracy. Each of our ships is insured under these policies for a total amount that exceeds what we believe to be its fair market value. We also maintain hull disbursements and increased value insurance policies covering each of our owned ships, which provide additional coverage in the event of the total or
  constructive loss of a ship. Our marine risks insurance policies contain deductible amounts for which we will be responsible, but there are no deductible amounts under our war risks policies or our total loss policies.
Loss of Hire Insurance
We have obtained loss of hire insurance to protect us against loss of income as a result of a ship being off-hire or otherwise suffering a loss of operational time for events falling under the terms of our hull and machinery insurance or hull and machinery war risks insurance. Under our
41

loss of hire policy, our insurer will pay us the hire rate agreed in respect of each ship for each day, in excess of a certain number of deductible days, for the time that the ship is out of service as a result of damage, for a maximum of 180 days. The number of deductible days for the ships in our fleet is
  14 days per ship.
Additionally, we buy piracy loss of hire and kidnap and ransom insurance when our ships are ordered to sail through the Indian Ocean to insure against potential losses relating to the hijacking of a ship and its crew by pirates.
Protection and Indemnity Insurance
Protection and indemnity insurance is typically provided by a protection and indemnity association, or P&I association, and covers third-party liability, crew liability and other related expenses resulting from injury to or death of crew, passengers and other third parties, loss of or damage to cargo,
  third-party claims arising from collisions with other ships (to the extent not recovered by the hull and machinery policies), damage to other third-party property, pollution arising from oil or other substances and salvage, towing and other related costs, including wreck removal.
Our protection and indemnity insurance covering our owned ships is provided by P&I associations that are members of the International Group of Protection and Indemnity Clubs, or International Group. The thirteen P&I associations that comprise the International Group insure approximately 90% of
  the worlds commercial tonnage and have entered into a pooling agreement to reinsure each associations liabilities. Insurance provided by a P&I association is a form of mutual indemnity insurance.
Our protection and indemnity insurance is currently subject to limits of $3 billion per ship per event in respect of liability to passengers and seamen, $2 billion per ship per event in respect of liability to passengers, and $1 billion per ship per event in respect of liability for oil pollution.
As a member of a P&I association, we will be subject to calls payable to the P&I association based on the International Groups claim records as well as the claim records of all other members of the P&I association of which we are a member.
Permits and Authorizations
We are required by various governmental and quasi-governmental agencies to obtain certain permits, licenses, financial assurances and certificates with respect to our ships. The kinds of permits, licenses, financial assurances and certificates required will depend upon several factors, including the
  waters in which the ship operates, the nationality of the ships crew and the age of the ship. We have obtained all permits, licenses, financial assurances and certificates currently required to operate our ships. Additional laws and regulations, environmental or otherwise, may be adopted which could limit
  our ability to do business or increase the cost of our doing business.
Environmental and Other Regulation
The carriage, handling, storage and regasification of LNG are subject to extensive laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment, health and safety and other matters. These laws and regulations include international conventions and national, state and local laws and regulations in
  the countries where our ships now or in the future will operate, or where our ships are registered. Compliance with these laws and regulations may entail significant expense and may impact the resale value or useful lives of our ships. Our ships may be subject to both scheduled and unscheduled
  inspections by a variety of governmental, quasi-governmental and private organizations, including the local port authorities, national authorities, harbor masters or equivalent, classification societies, flag state administrations (countries of registry) and charterers. Our failure to maintain permits, licenses,
  certificates or other authorizations required by some of these entities could require us to incur substantial costs or result in the temporary suspension of the operation of one or more of our ships or lead to the invalidation or reduction of our insurance coverage.
42

We believe that our ships are operated in material compliance with applicable environmental laws and regulations and that our ships in operation have all material permits, licenses, certificates or other authorizations necessary for the conduct of our operations. In fact, each of our delivered ships have
  received, and each of our seven newbuildings on order is expected to receive, an ENVIRO, an ENVIRO+ or a CLEAN notation from our classification societies, which denote compliance with their published guidelines concerning stringent criteria for environmental protection related to design
  characteristics, management and support systems, sea discharges and air emissions. Because environmental laws and regulations are frequently changed and may impose increasingly stricter requirements, however, it is difficult to accurately predict the ultimate cost of complying with these requirements or
  the impact of these requirements on the resale value or useful lives of our ships. Moreover, additional legislation or regulation applicable to the operation of our ships that may be implemented in the future, such as in response to a serious marine incident like the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the
  Gulf of Mexico, could negatively affect our profitability.
International Maritime Regulations
The IMO, the United Nations agency for maritime safety and the prevention of pollution by ships, has adopted several international conventions that regulate the international shipping industry, including the International Convention on Civil Liability for Oil Pollution Damage, the International
  Convention on Civil Liability for Bunker Oil Pollution Damage, and the MARPOL Convention. The MARPOL Convention establishes environmental standards relating to oil leakage or spilling, garbage management, sewage, air emissions, handling and disposal of noxious liquids and the handling of
  harmful substances in packaged form. The International Safety Management Code for the Safe Operation of Ships and for Pollution Prevention, or ISM Code, promulgated by the IMO, requires, among other things, that the party with operational control of a ship develop an extensive safety
  management system, including the adoption of a policy for safety and environmental protection setting forth instructions and procedures for operating its ships safely and also describing procedures for responding to emergencies. Through GasLog LNG Services, we have developed a safety management
  system for our ships that meets these requirements.
Ships that transport gas, including LNG carriers, are also subject to regulation under the International Gas Carrier Code, or IGC Code, published by the IMO. The IGC Code prescribes design and construction standards for ships involved in the transport of gas. Compliance with the IGC Code
  must be evidenced by a Certificate of Fitness for the Carriage of Liquefied Gases of Bulk. Each of our ships is in compliance with the IGC Code and each of our newbuilding contracts requires that the ship receive certification that it is in compliance with applicable regulations before it is delivered. Non-
  compliance with the IGC Code or other applicable IMO regulations may subject a ship owner or a bareboat charterer to increased liability, may lead to decreases in available insurance coverage for affected ships and may result in the denial of access to, or detention in, some ports.
In September 1997, the IMO adopted Annex VI to MARPOL to address air pollution from ships. Annex VI came into force on May 19, 2005. It sets limits on sulfur oxide and nitrogen oxide emissions from ship exhausts and prohibits deliberate emissions of ozone depleting substances, such as
  chlorofluorocarbons. Annex VI also includes a global cap on the sulfur content of fuel oil and allows for special areas to be established with more stringent controls on sulfur emissions. Annex VI has been ratified by some, but not all, IMO member states. In October 2008, the Marine Environment
  Protection Committee, or MEPC, of the IMO approved amendments to Annex VI regarding particulate matter, nitrogen oxide and sulfur oxide emissions standards. These amendments entered into force in July 2010. They seek to reduce air pollution from ships by establishing a series of progressive
  standards to further limit the sulfur content in fuel oil, which would be phased in by 2020, and by establishing new tiers of nitrogen oxide emission standards for new marine diesel engines, depending on their date of installation. Additionally, more stringent emission standards could apply in coastal areas
  designated as Emission Control Areas, or ECAs. The European Union Directive 2005/EC/33, which became effective on January 1, 2010, parallels Annex VI and requires ships to use reduced sulfur content fuel for their main and auxiliary engines. Our owned ships currently in operation comply with
  the relevant legislation and have the relevant certificates,
43

and we intend to take all necessary steps to obtain International Air Pollution Prevention certificates evidencing compliance with Annex VI requirements for all of our ships.
Although the United States is not a party, many countries have ratified the International Convention on Civil Liability for Oil Pollution Damage, 1969, as amended, or the CLC. Under this convention and depending on whether the country in which the damage results is a party to the 1992
  Protocol to the CLC, a ships registered owner is strictly liable for pollution damage caused in the territorial waters of a contracting state by discharge of persistent oil, subject under certain circumstances to certain defenses and limitations. Ships trading to states that are parties to these conventions must
  provide evidence of insurance covering the liability of the owner. In jurisdictions where the CLC has not been adopted, various legislative schemes or common law govern, and liability is imposed either on the basis of fault or in a manner similar to the CLC.
The IMO also has adopted the International Convention on Civil Liability for Bunker Oil Pollution Damage, or the Bunker Convention, which imposes liability on ship owners for pollution damage in jurisdictional waters of ratifying states caused by discharges of bunker fuel and requires registered
  owners of ships over 1,000 gross tons to maintain insurance for pollution damage in an amount equal to the limits of liability under the applicable national or international limitation regime. We maintain insurance in respect of our owned ships that satisfies these requirements.
Noncompliance with the ISM Code or with other IMO regulations may subject a ship owner or bareboat charterer to increased liability, may lead to decreases in available insurance coverage for affected ships and may result in the denial of access to, or detention in, some ports, including United
  States and European Union ports.
United States
Oil Pollution Act and CERCLA
Because our ships could trade with the United States or its territories or possessions and/or operate in U.S. waters, our operations could be impacted by the U.S. Oil Pollution Act of 1990, or OPA, which establishes an extensive regulatory and liability regime for environmental protection and
  cleanup of oil spills, and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, or CERCLA, which imposes liability for cleanup and natural resource damage from the release of hazardous substances (other than oil). Under OPA, ship owners, operators and bareboat charterers
  are responsible parties who are jointly, severally and strictly liable (unless the spill results solely from the act or omission of a third party, an act of God or an act of war) for all containment and clean-up costs and other damages arising from oil spills from their ships. OPA currently limits the liability of
  responsible parties with respect to ships over 3,000 gross tons to the greater of $2,000 per gross ton or $17,088,000 per double hull ship and permits individual states to impose their own liability regimes with regard to oil pollution incidents occurring within their boundaries. Some states have enacted
  legislation providing for unlimited liability for discharge of pollutants within their waters. CERCLA applies to owners and operators of ships and contains a similar liability regime. Liability under CERCLA is limited to the greater of $300 per gross ton or $5.0 million for ships carrying a hazardous
  substance as cargo and the greater of $300 per gross ton or $0.5 million for any other ship.
These limits of liability do not apply under certain circumstances, however, such as where the incident is caused by violation of applicable U.S. Federal safety, construction or operating regulations, or by the responsible partys gross negligence or willful misconduct. In addition, a marine incident that
  results in significant damage to the environment, such as the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, could result in amendments to these limitations or other regulatory changes in the future. We maintain the maximum pollution liability coverage amount of $1 billion per incident for our owned ships. We also
  believe that we will be in substantial compliance with OPA, CERCLA and all applicable state regulations in the ports where our ships will call.
OPA also requires owners and operators of ships to establish and maintain with the National Pollution Fund Center of the U.S. Coast Guard evidence of financial responsibility sufficient to meet the limit of their potential strict liability under the act. Such financial responsibility can be
44

demonstrated by providing a guarantee from an appropriate guarantor, who can release the required guarantee to the National Pollution Fund Center against payment of the requested premium. We have received the mandatory certificates of financial responsibility from the U.S. Coast Guard in respect of
  all of our delivered ships and intend to receive such certificates in the future for each of our ships required to have them.
Clean Water Act
The U.S. Clean Water Act of 1972, or CWA, prohibits the discharge of oil, hazardous substances and ballast water in U.S. navigable waters unless authorized by a duly-issued permit or exemption, and imposes strict liability in the form of penalties for any unauthorized discharges. The CWA also
  imposes substantial liability for the costs of removal, remediation and damages and complements the remedies available under OPA and CERCLA. Furthermore, most U.S. states that border a navigable waterway have enacted environmental pollution laws that impose strict liability on a person for
  removal costs and damages resulting from a discharge of oil or a release of a hazardous substance. These laws may be more stringent than U.S. Federal law.
The United States Environmental Protection Agency, or EPA, has enacted rules requiring ballast water discharges and other discharges incidental to the normal operation of certain ships within United States waters to be authorized under the Ship General Permit for Discharges Incidental to the
  Normal Operation of Ships, or the VGP. To be covered by the VGP, owners of certain ships must submit a Notice of Intent, or NOI, at least 30 days before the ship operates in United States waters. Compliance with the VGP could require the installation of equipment on our ships to treat ballast
  water before it is discharged or the implementation of other disposal arrangements, and/or otherwise restrict our ships from entering United States waters. In March 2013, the EPA published a new VGP to replace the existing VGP, which expired in December 2013. The new VGP includes numeric
  effluent limits for ballast water expressed as the maximum concentration of living organisms in ballast water expressed as the maximum concentration of living organisms in ballast water. The new VGP also imposes a variety of changes for non-ballast water discharges including more stringent Best
  Management Practices for discharges of oil-to-sea interfaces in an effort to reduce the toxicity of oil leaked into U.S. water. We have submitted NOIs for all of our delivered ships and intend to submit NOIs for our ships in the future where required and do not believe that the costs associated with
  obtaining and complying with the VGP will have a significant impact on our operations.
Clean Air Act
The U.S. Clean Air Act of 1970, as amended by the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1977 and 1990, or the CAA, requires the EPA to promulgate standards applicable to emissions of volatile organic compounds and other air contaminants. Our ships may be subject to vapor control and recovery
  requirements for certain cargoes when loading, unloading, ballasting, cleaning and conducting other operations in regulated port areas and emission standards for so-called Category 3 marine diesel engines operating in U.S. waters. The marine diesel engine emission standards are currently limited to new
  engines beginning with the 2004 model year. On April 30, 2010, the EPA adopted final emission standards for Category 3 marine diesel engines equivalent to those adopted in the amendments to Annex VI to MARPOL, which will apply in two stages, beginning in 2011 and 2016. However, our tri-fuel
  diesel electric LNG carriers have the ability to burn natural gas as fuel to power the ship, which can significantly reduce relevant emissions compared with steam-powered ships.
The CAA also requires states to adopt State Implementation Plans, or SIPs, designed to attain national health-based air quality standards in primarily major metropolitan and/or industrial areas. Several SIPs regulate emissions resulting from ship loading and unloading operations by requiring the
  installation of vapor control equipment. The MEPC has designated the area extending 200 miles from the territorial sea baseline adjacent to the Atlantic/Gulf and Pacific coasts and the eight main Hawaiian Islands as an ECA, which entered into force in August 2012, under the Annex VI amendments.
  Fuel used by vessels operating in the ECA cannot exceed 1.0% sulfur, dropping to
45

0.1% sulfur in 2015. From 2016, NOx after-treatment requirements will also apply. Similar restrictions will be phased in for the newly-designated Caribbean ECA adjacent to Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands beginning in 2014. Our vessels can store and burn low-sulfur fuel oil or alternatively burn
  natural gas which contains no sulfur. Additionally, burning natural gas will ensure compliance with IMO tier III NOx emission limitations without the need for after-treatment. Charterers must supply compliant fuel for the vessels before ordering vessels to trade in areas where restrictions apply. As a
  result, we do not expect such restrictions to have a materially adverse impact on our operations or costs.
Other Environmental Initiatives
U.S. Coast Guard regulations adopted under the U.S. National Invasive Species Act, or NISA, impose mandatory ballast water management practices for all ships equipped with ballast water tanks entering U.S. waters, which could require the installation of equipment on our ships to treat ballast
  water before it is discharged or the implementation of other port facility disposal arrangements or procedures, and/or otherwise restrict our ships from entering U.S. waters. In June 2012, the U.S. Coast Guard rule establishing standards for the allowable concentration of living organisms in ballast water
  discharged in U.S. waters and requiring the phase-in of Coast Guard approved ballast water management systems, or BWMS became effective. The Coast Guard will review the practicability of implementing a more stringent ballast water discharge standard and publish the results no later than January
  1, 2016. The rule requires installation of Coast Guard approved BWMS by new vessels constructed on or after December 1, 2013 and existing vessels as of their first drydocking after January 1, 2016. Several states have adopted legislation and regulations relating to the permitting and management of
  ballast water discharges.
At the international level, the IMO adopted an International Convention for the Control and Management of Ships Ballast Water and Sediments in February 2004, or the BWM Convention. The Conventions implementing regulations call for a phased introduction of mandatory ballast water
  exchange requirements, to be replaced in time with mandatory concentration limits. The BWM Convention will not enter into force until 12 months after it has been adopted by 30 states, the combined merchant fleets of which represent not less than 35% of the gross tonnage of the worlds merchant
  shipping. To date, a sufficient number of countries have not adopted this convention for it to enter into force. However, the IMOs Marine Environment Protection Committee passed a resolution in March 2010 encouraging the ratification of the Convention and calling upon those countries that have
  already ratified to encourage the installation of ballast water management systems. While we believe that our delivered ships comply with existing requirements, if new ballast water treatment requirements are instituted, the cost of compliance could increase for ocean carriers. It is difficult to accurately
  predict the overall impact of such a requirement on our operations.
Greenhouse Gas Regulations
The MEPC of IMO adopted two new sets of mandatory requirements to address greenhouse gas emissions from ships at its July 2011 meeting. The Energy Efficiency Design Index requires a minimum energy efficiency level per capacity mile and is applicable to new vessels, and the Ship Energy
  Efficiency Management Plan is applicable to currently operating vessels. The requirements, which entered into force in January 2013, could cause us to incur additional compliance costs. To meet the requirements, we have an agreement with ABS for the development of a Company Energy Efficiency
  Management Plan and the Ship-specific Energy Efficiency Management Plan based on certain documents issued by the IMO. The IMO is also considering the development of a market-based mechanism for greenhouse gas emissions from ships, but it is impossible to predict the likelihood that such a
  standard might be adopted or its potential impact on our operations at this time.
The European Union has indicated that it intends to propose an expansion of the existing European Union emissions trading scheme to include emissions of greenhouse gases from marine ships. In the United States, the EPA has issued a finding that greenhouse gases endanger the public health and
  safety and has adopted regulations under the CAA to limit greenhouse gas emissions
46

from certain mobile sources and large stationary sources. Although the mobile source emissions do not apply to greenhouse gas emissions from ships, the EPA is considering a petition from the California Attorney General and environmental groups to regulate greenhouse gas emissions from ocean-going
  ships. Any passage of climate control legislation or other regulatory initiatives by the IMO, the European Union, the United States or other countries where we operate, or any treaty adopted at the international level to succeed the Kyoto Protocol, that restrict emissions of greenhouse gases could require
  us to make significant financial expenditures that we cannot predict with certainty at this time.
We believe that LNG carriers, which have the inherent ability to burn natural gas to power the ship, and in particular LNG carriers like ours that utilize fuel-efficient diesel electric propulsion, can be considered among the cleanest of large ships in terms of emissions.
Ship Security Regulations
A number of initiatives have been introduced in recent years intended to enhance ship security. On November 25, 2002, the Maritime Transportation Security Act of 2002, or MTSA, was signed into law. To implement certain portions of the MTSA, the U.S. Coast Guard issued regulations in July
  2003 requiring the implementation of certain security requirements aboard ships operating in waters subject to the jurisdiction of the United States. Similarly, in December 2002, amendments to SOLAS created a new chapter of the convention dealing specifically with maritime security. This new chapter
  came into effect in July 2004 and imposes various detailed security obligations on ships and port authorities, most of which are contained in the newly created International Ship and Port Facilities Security Code, or ISPS Code. Among the various requirements are:

    
    
    
    on-board installation of automatic information systems to enhance ship-to-ship and ship-to-shore communications;
    
    
    
    on-board installation of ship security alert systems;
    
    
    
    the development of ship security plans; and
    
    
    
    compliance with flag state security certification requirements.The U.S. Coast Guard regulations, intended to align with international maritime security standards, exempt non-U.S. ships from MTSA ship security measures, provided such ships have on board a valid International Ship Security Certificate that attests to the ships compliance with SOLAS security
  requirements and the ISPS Code. We have implemented the various security measures required by the IMO, SOLAS and the ISPS Code and have approved ISPS certificates and plans certified by the applicable flag state on board all our ships.

ITEM 5. OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS
The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes to those statements included elsewhere in this annual report. This discussion includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. As a
  result of many factors, such as those set forth under Item 3. Key InformationD. Risk Factors and elsewhere in this annual report, our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements. Please see the section Forward-Looking Statements at the beginning of this
  annual report.
Overview
We are a growth-oriented international owner, operator and manager of LNG carriers. Our owned fleet consists of 18 wholly owned LNG carriers, including two ships delivered to us in 2010, five ships delivered to us in 2013, one on-the-water ship acquired in 2013, the three ships that will be
  acquired under the Pending Vessel Acquisition and seven LNG carriers on order. We currently manage and operate 20 LNG carriers including the ships under the Pending Vessel Acquisition, and we are supervising the construction of our newbuildings. We have secured multi-year and seasonal time
  charter contracts for seven of the ships already delivered to us, five of our seven newbuildings on order and the three ships under the Pending Vessel Acquisition. From December 31, 2013 these contracts are expected to provide total contracted revenue of $2.5 billion during their initial terms, which
  expire between 2015 and 2026.
In addition to our committed order book, we have options to purchase six additional LNG carriers from Samsung Heavy Industries that expire in the end of the first quarter of 2014, and we have a 25% interest in an additional ship, the Methane Nile Eagle, a 2007-built LNG carrier owned by Egypt
  LNG and technically managed by us that is currently operating under a 20-year time charter to a subsidiary of BG Group. The information about our owned fleet presented in this annual report does not include our ownership interest in the Methane Nile Eagle.
We manage our business and analyze and report our results of operations on the basis of two segments: vessel ownership and vessel management. Our vessel ownership segment generates revenues by chartering our ships to customers on time charters at rates that are generally fixed but contain a
  variable component, such as an inflation adjustment or an adjustment based on the actual expenses we incur in operating the ship. Our current time charters have initial terms of up to ten years and include options that permit the charterers to extend the terms for successive periods under hire rate
  provisions that are comparable to those prevailing at the end of the expiring term. We will continue to evaluate the attractiveness of longer and shorter term chartering opportunities as the commercial characteristics of the LNG carrier industry evolve. We have structured our order book of new LNG
  carriers to have staggered delivery dates, facilitating a smooth integration of the ships into our fleet as well as significant annual growth through 2016. This has the additional advantage of spreading our exposure to the re-employment of these ships over several years upon expiration of their current
  charters.
Six of our owned ships, the GasLog Savannah, the GasLog Singapore, the GasLog Shanghai, the GasLog Santiago, the GasLog Sydneyand the GasLog Skagenhave been chartered to BG Group since their delivery from the shipyard under multi-year time charters. The GasLog Seattle has been
  chartered to Shell since its delivery from the shipyard under multi-year time charter. We have entered into fixed time charter agreements with BG Group and Shell pursuant to which five of our newbuildings and the three ships to be acquired from under the Pending Vessel Acquisition will be chartered
  to BG Group upon delivery and one of our newbuildings will be chartered to Shell upon delivery. The GasLog Chelseahas been operating in the spot market since its delivery.
Our vessel management segment, the operations of which are carried out through our wholly owned subsidiary GasLog LNG Services, generates revenues by offering plan approval and construction supervision services in connection with newbuilding LNG carriers and providing technical ship
  management services, including crewing, training, maintenance, regulatory and classification compliance and HSSE management and reporting, for our owned fleet as well as the ships in our managed fleet. Under the vessel management segment, we also record revenues for
49

commercial management services that are invoiced by GasLog Ltd. to our own fleet in accordance with the relevant commercial management agreements. These revenues are eliminated in the consolidation of our accounts.
A. Operating Results
Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations
We believe the principal factors that will affect our future results of operations include:

    
    
    
    the number of LNG carriers in our owned and managed fleets;
    
    
    
    the timely delivery of our ships under construction;
    
    
    
    our ability to maintain good working relationships with our existing customers and our ability to increase the number of our customers through the development of new working relationships;
    
    
    
    the performance of their charter obligations by subsidiaries of BG Group and Shell;
    
    
    
    the supply-demand relationship for LNG shipping services;
    
    
    
    our ability to successfully re-employ the ships we own, including our LNG carriers on order, at economically attractive rates;
    
    
    
    the effective and efficient technical management of the ships under our management;
    
    
    
    our ability to obtain acceptable debt financing in respect of our capital commitments;
    
    
    
    our ability to obtain and maintain regulatory approvals and to satisfy technical, health, safety and compliance standards that meet our customers requirements; and
    
    
    
    economic, regulatory, political and governmental conditions that affect shipping and the LNG industry, which include changes in the number of new LNG importing countries and regions, as well as structural LNG market changes impacting LNG supply that may allow greater flexibility and
      competition of other energy sources with global LNG use.In addition to the general factors discussed above, we believe certain specific factors have impacted, or will impact, our results of operations. These factors include:

    
    
    
    the hire rate earned by our owned ships;
    
    
    
    unscheduled off-hire days;
    
    
    
    the fees we receive for construction supervision and technical ship management services;
    
    
    
    the level of our ship operating expenses, including crewing costs, insurance and maintenance costs;
    
    
    
    our access to capital required to acquire additional ships and/or to implement our business strategy;
    
    
    
    our level of debt, the related interest expense and the timing of required payments of principal;
    
    
    
    mark-to-market changes in interest rate swaps and foreign currency fluctuations; and
    
    
    
    the level of our general and administrative expenses, including salaries and costs of consultants.Principal Components of Revenues and Expenses
Revenues
Vessel Ownership
Our vessel ownership revenues are driven primarily by the number of LNG carriers in our owned fleet, the amount of daily charter hire that they earn under time charters and the number of operating days during which they generate revenues. These factors, in turn, are affected by our
50

decisions relating to ship acquisitions and disposals, the amount of time that our ships spend in drydock undergoing repairs, maintenance and upgrade work, the age, condition and technical specifications of our ships as well as the relative levels of supply and demand in the LNG carrier charter market.
  Under the terms of some of our time charter arrangements, the operating cost component of the daily hire rate is intended to correspond to the costs of operating the ship. Accordingly, we will receive additional revenue under certain of our time charters through an annual escalation of the operating cost
  component of the daily hire rate and, in the event of more material increases in a ships operating costs, we may be entitled to receive additional revenues under those charters. Under our other time charter arrangements, most of our operating costs are passed-through to the charterer in the form of an
  adjustment to the operating cost component of the daily hire rate. We believe these adjustment provisions provide substantial protection against significant cost increases. See Item 4. Information on the CompanyB. Business OverviewShip Time ChartersHire Rate Provisions for a more detailed
  discussion of the hire rate provisions of our charter contracts.
Our LNG carriers are employed through time charter contracts. Revenues under our time charters are recognized when services are performed, revenue is earned and the collection of the revenue is reasonably assured. The charter hire revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of
  the relevant time charter. We do not recognize revenue during days when the ship is off-hire. Advance payments under time charter contracts are classified as liabilities until such time as the criteria for recognizing the revenue are met.
The table below provides additional information about our contracted charter revenues based on contracts in effect as of December 31, 2013 for the 12 ships in our owned fleet for which we had secured time charters, including the contracts for five of our newbuildings on order. Other than the
  assumptions reflected in the footnotes below, including our assumption that the newbuildings are delivered on schedule, the table below does not reflect events occurring after December 31, 2013 including the charter party agreements for the three ships to be acquired under the Pending Vessel
  Acquisition. The table below reflects only our contracted charter revenues for the 12 ships in our owned fleet for which we have secured time charters, and it does not reflect the costs or expenses we will incur in fulfilling our obligations under the charters, nor does it include other revenues we may earn,
  such as revenues for technical management of customer-owned ships. In particular, the table does not reflect any time charter revenues for our two LNG carriers on order for which we have not yet secured time charter contracts, revenues from GasLog Chelsearelated to contracts signed after December
  31, 2013, contracted revenues for the three ships to be acquired under the Pending Vessel Acquisition or any additional ships we may acquire in the future, nor does it reflect the options under our time charters that permit our charterers to extend the time charter terms for successive multi-year periods
  at comparable charter hire rates. The entry into time charter contracts for the two remaining newbuildings on order, the GasLog Chelsea, any additional ships we may acquire or the exercise of options extending the terms of our existing charters, would result in an increase in the number of contracted
  days and the contracted revenue for our fleet in the future. Although the contracted charter revenues are based on contracted charter hire rate provisions, they reflect certain assumptions, including assumptions relating to future ship operating costs. We consider the assumptions to be reasonable as of the
  date of this annual report, but if these assumptions prove to be incorrect, our actual time charter revenues could differ from those reflected in the table. Furthermore, any contract is subject to various risks, including performance by the counterparties or an early termination of the contract pursuant to its
  terms. If the charterers are unable or unwilling to make charter payments to us, or if we agree to renegotiate charter terms at the request of a charterer or if contracts are prematurely terminated for any reason, we would be exposed to prevailing market conditions at the time, and our results of
  operations and financial condition may be materially adversely affected. Please see Item 3. Key InformationD. Risk Factors. For these reasons, the contracted charter revenue information presented below is not fact and should not be relied upon as being necessarily indicative of future results, and
  readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on this information. Neither the Companys independent auditors, nor any other independent accountants, have compiled, examined or performed any procedures with respect to the information presented in the table, nor have they expressed any
51

opinion or any other form of assurance on such information or its achievability, and assume no responsibility for, and disclaim any association with, the information in the table.

    Does not reflect two short-term contracts of GasLog Chelseathat were signed after December 31, 2013. These contracts, for their firm duration, will contribute additional revenue of $21.92 million and 250 additional contracted days.Vessel Management
The revenues of GasLog LNG Services, our wholly owned subsidiary, are driven primarily by the number of ships operating under our technical management and the amount of the fees we earn for each of these ships as well as the amount of fees that we earn for plan approval and construction
  supervision of newbuilding LNG carriers. In addition to revenues from external customers, GasLog LNG Services receives revenues for technical management, plan approval and construction supervision services provided to our owned fleet. These revenues are eliminated in the consolidation of our
  accounts. Under the vessel management segment, we also record revenues for commercial management services that are invoiced by GasLog Ltd. to our own fleet in accordance with the relevant commercial management agreements. These revenues are also eliminated in the consolidation of our accounts.
Revenue from ship management and ship construction project supervision contracts is recognized in the statement of profit or loss when earned and when it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to us and such benefits can be measured reliably.
52

Vessel Operating and Supervision Costs
Vessel Ownership
Vessel operating and supervision costs of our owned fleet consist of two components: voyage expenses and ship operating expenses. Under our time charter arrangements, charterers bear substantially all voyage expenses, including bunker fuel, port charges and canal tolls, but not commissions, which
  we have historically paid to unaffiliated ship brokers based on a flat fee per ship. Commissions are recognized as expenses on a pro rata basis over the duration of the period of the time charter.
We are generally responsible for ship operating expenses, which include costs for crewing, insurance, repairs, modifications and maintenance, including drydocking, lubricants, spare parts and consumable stores and other miscellaneous expenses, as well as the associated cost of providing these items
  and services. However, as described above, the hire rate provisions of our time charters are intended to reflect the operating costs borne by us. Our charters contain provisions that significantly reduce our exposure to increases in operating costs, including review provisions and cost pass-through provisions.
  Ship operating expenses are recognized as expenses when incurred.
Our vessel ownership segment pays fees to GasLog LNG Services in connection with our own newbuildings on order for plan approval and construction supervision services provided by GasLog LNG Services and to cover third-party expenses incurred by GasLog LNG Services in respect of the
  newbuildings. These fees, other than any inter-segment profit, are capitalized as part of the asset value of our ships. The fees paid for technical ship management services, which are considered expenses of the vessel ownership segment (and corresponding revenues of GasLog LNG Services), are eliminated
  in the consolidation of our accounts.
Vessel Management
Vessel operating and supervision costs of GasLog LNG Services include staff costs, such as salaries, social security and training for the technical management team and project specialists, and project-related expenses.
Depreciation of Fixed Assets
Vessel Ownership
The majority of our consolidated depreciation expenses relate to the cost of our owned ships. We depreciate the cost of our ships on the basis of two components: a vessel component and a drydocking component. The vessel component is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the expected useful
  life of each ship, based on the cost of the ship less its estimated residual value. We estimate the useful lives of our ships to be 35 years from the date of delivery from the shipyard. Furthermore, we estimate the residual values of our ships to be 10% of the initial ship cost, which represents our estimate
  of the market value of the ship at the end of its useful life.
We must periodically drydock each of our ships for inspection, repairs and maintenance and any modifications to comply with industry certification or governmental requirements. All our owned ships are required to be drydocked for these inspections at least once every five years. At the time of
  delivery of a ship from the shipyard, we estimate the drydocking component of the cost of the ship, which represents the estimated cost of the ships first drydocking based on our historical experience with similar types of ships. The drydocking component of the ships cost is depreciated over a five-year
  period.
Vessel Management
Depreciation expenses in GasLog LNG Services, our ship management company, are less significant than the depreciation expenses in our vessel ownership segment. They relate to property renovation costs and the costs of furniture, computer software and other equipment. Furniture,
53

software, computer equipment and other equipment are depreciated based on expected useful lives of three to five years.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses consist principally of personnel costs for administrative and support staff, board of directors fees, expense recognized in connection with equity-settled compensation, rent, utilities, travel expenses, legal expenses, training for crew familiarization and other advisor
  costs.
Financial Costs
We incur interest expense on the outstanding indebtedness under our existing credit facilities and our swap arrangements that qualify for treatment as cash flow hedges for financial reporting purposes, which we include in our financial costs. Financial costs also include amortization of other loan
  issuance costs incurred in connection with establishing our existing credit facilities. We will incur additional interest expense and other borrowing costs in the future on our outstanding borrowings and under the undrawn or future borrowings. For a description of our credit facilities, including our loan
  agreements, see Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and ProspectsB. Liquidity and Capital ResourcesCredit Facilities.
Interest expense and the amortization of loan issuance costs that relate directly to a specific loan to finance an LNG carrier under construction and are incurred during the construction period are capitalized as part of the cost of the ship. Otherwise, interest expense and amortization of loan issuance
  costs are expensed as incurred.
Financial Income
Financial income consists of interest income, which will depend on the level of our cash deposits, investments and prevailing interest rates. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis.
Gain/(Loss) on Swaps
Any gain or loss derived from the fair value of the swaps at their inception, the ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the swaps that cannot be recognized in other comprehensive income and net interest settled, the movement in the fair value of the swaps that have not been designated
  as hedges and the amortization of the cumulative unrealized loss for the swaps that hedge accounting was discontinued are presented as gain or loss on swaps in our consolidated statements of profit or loss.
Share of Profit of Associate
The share of profit of associate consists of our share of profits from our 25% ownership interest in Egypt LNG, a Bermuda exempted company whose principal asset is the LNG carrier Methane Nile Eagle. Our share of the profits or losses arising out of our interest in Egypt LNG is reported in our
  vessel ownership segment.

Revenues:
Consolidated revenues increased by 129.41%, or $88.70 million, to $157.24 million during the year ended December 31, 2013, from $68.54 million during the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase is attributable to an increase in revenues in the vessel ownership segment of $89.13 million,
  partially offset by a decrease in revenues in the vessel management segment from external customers of $0.43 million.
Vessel ownership segment:In our vessel ownership segment, revenues increased by 158.37%, or $89.13 million, to $145.41 million during the year ended December 31, 2013, from $56.28 million during the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase is due to the delivery of the GasLog
  Shanghai, the GasLog Santiago, the GasLog Sydney, the GasLog Skagen, the GasLog Chelsea, and the GasLog Seattleon January 28, 2013, March 25, 2013, May 30, 2013, July 25, 2013, October 4, 2103 and December 9, 2013, respectively and the commencement of their charter party agreements.
Vessel management segment:Revenues of GasLog LNG Services increased by 23.23%, or $3.97 million, to $21.06 million, from $17.09 million, of which $11.83 million and $12.26 million was from external customers, during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The
  increase of $4.40 million in inter-segment revenues is mainly attributable to a $2.28 million increase in management fees and other services provided to the GasLog Shanghai, the GasLog Santiago, the GasLog Sydney, the GasLog Skagen, the GasLog Chelsea, and the GasLog Seattle, $1.37 million from
  the commercial management fees in accordance with the commercial management agreements signed in 2013 and $0.78 million increase in revenues from newbuilding supervision. Revenues from newbuilding supervision, management fees and other services provided to our vessel ownership segment are
  eliminated in the consolidation of Group revenues. The newbuilding supervision program will be effective until all of our Group newbuildings are delivered. The decrease in revenue from external customers of $0.43 million is attributable to a decrease in the performance bonus we received from BG
  Group for the management of its ships of $0.25 million and a decrease of $0.18 million in revenues earned from all other services provided to external customers.
Vessel Operating and Supervision Costs:
Consolidated vessel operating and supervision costs increased by 138.36%, or $20.27 million, to $34.92 million during the year ended December 31, 2013, from $14.65 million during the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase is mainly attributable to an increase of $21.64 million in vessel
  operating expenses in the vessel ownership segment.
Vessel ownership segment:Vessel operating costs in the segment increased by 200.74% or $21.64 million, to $32.42 million during the year ended December 31, 2013, from $10.78 million during the year ended December 31, 2012, primarily due to operating expenses of the six vessels
  delivered in 2013 and increased technical maintenance expenses due to the planned underwater inspections and maintenance of the main engines for the two vessels delivered in 2010.
Vessel management segment:Vessel operating and supervision costs of GasLog LNG Services increased by 7.98%, or $0.62 million, to $8.39 million during the year ended December 31, 2013, from $7.77 million during the year ended December 31, 2012, due to new employees hired in order
  to fulfill new requirements from our existing customers.
General and Administrative Expenses:
Consolidated general and administrative expenses increased by 5.99%, or $1.22 million, to $21.60 million during the year ended December 31, 2013, from $20.38 million during the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase is mainly attributable to an increase of $2.02 million in vessel ownership
  segment, an increase of $0.58 million in unallocated segment, partially offset by a decrease of $0.03 million in vessel management.
Vessel ownership segment:General and administrative expenses in the segment increased by $2.02 million, to $2.17 million during the year ended December 31, 2013, from $0.15 million during the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase in general and administrative expenses is mainly
56

attributable to the six vessels delivered in 2013 and the commercial management fee of $1.37 million that is eliminated on a Group basis.
Vessel management segment:General and administrative expenses in the segment decreased slightly by 0.39%, or $0.03 million, to $7.73 million during the year ended December 31, 2013, from $7.76 million during the year ended December 31, 2012.
Unallocated:Unallocated general and administrative expenses increased by 4.65%, or $0.58 million, to $13.06 million during the year ended December 31, 2013, from $12.48 million during the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase is mainly attributable to an increase of $1.78 million
  in personnel costs due to an increase in the number of employees and an increase in other personnel-related expenses related to the planned growth, an increase of $0.88 million in legal and professional services, partially offset by a decrease of $1.87 million in equity-settled compensation expense
  attributable to the segment because the old plan fully vested upon completion of our IPO in April 2012 while the amortization for the 2013 plan started on April 29, 2013 and a decrease of $0.21 million in all other expenses.
Financial Costs:
Consolidated financial costs increased by 138.65%, or $16.18 million, to $27.85 million during the year ended December 31, 2013, from $11.67 million during the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase is mainly attributable to an increase of $12.75 million in the vessel ownership segment and an
  increase of $3.44 million in the unallocated segment.
Vessel ownership segment:Financial costs in the segment increased by 110.01%, or $12.75 million, to $24.34 million during the year ended December 31, 2013, from $11.59 million during the year ended December 31, 2012, as a result of the interest expense on outstanding indebtedness.
  During the year ended December 31, 2013, we had an average of $673.29 million of outstanding indebtedness with a weighted average interest rate of 2.99% and during the year ended December 31, 2012, we had an average of $269.10 million of outstanding indebtedness with a weighted average interest
  rate of 3.94%. The weighted average interest does not include the interest for swaps that do not qualify for hedge accounting since the interest for such swaps is classified under Gain/(loss) on swaps.
Unallocated: Financial costs in the segment increased by $3.44 million, to $3.46 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, from $0.02 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase is mainly related to the interest expense for the bond issued on June 27, 2013.
Financial Income:
Consolidated financial income decreased by 64.96%, or $0.76 million to $0.41 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, from $1.17 million during the year ended December 31, 2012. The decrease is mainly attributable to decreased interest income from our decreased average fixed time deposits.
Gain/(loss)on Swaps:
Consolidated gain on swaps increased by $18.28 million to $11.50 million during the year ended December 31, 2013, from $6.78 million loss during the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase is attributable to the vessel ownership segment.
Vessel ownership segment:In our vessel ownership segment, gain on swaps increased by $18.28 million to $11.50 million during the year ended December 31, 2013, from $6.78 million loss during the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase is attributable to an increase of $24.01 million
  in unrealized loss on interest rate swaps, partially offset by the $5.73 million realized loss on interest rate held for trading. Unrealized gain on swaps, net increased by 354.13% or $24.01 million, to $17.23 million gain during the year ended December 31, 2013, from $6.78 million loss during the year ended
  December 31, 2012. The increase is mainly attributable to a $24.45 million increase in gain from the mark-to-market valuation of our interest rate swaps which are carried at fair value
57

through profit or loss at inception and our interest rate swaps for which hedge accounting was discontinued during 2013, a decrease of $1.74 million in loss recognized at inception of the interest swaps, partially offset by a $2.29 million that was reclassified from equity to the profit or loss statement related
  to the interest rate swaps for which hedge accounting was discontinued.
Share of Profit of Associate:
Our consolidated share of profits from our interest in Egypt LNG increased by 36.11%, or $0.39 million, to $1.47 million during the year ended December 31, 2013, from $1.08 million during the year ended December 31, 2012, mainly because of the scheduled drydocking in 2012, which resulted in
  lower revenues associated with the off-hire days and increased repairs and maintenance normally undertaken during the drydocking period.
Profit for the Year:
Consolidated profit increased by $52.68 million, to $56.93 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, from $4.25 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 as a result of the aforementioned factors.

    Unallocated items consist of expenses of GasLog Ltd. related to administrative functions and compensation paid to senior management.During each of the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, we had an average of 2.0 ships operating in our owned fleet and an average of 14.0 ships under our technical management. During the year ended December 31, 2012, we had an average of 4.6 ships under construction supervision, as
  compared to the year ended December 31, 2011, when we had an average of 0.7 ships under construction supervision.
Revenues:
Consolidated revenues increased by 3.11%, or $2.07 million, to $68.54 million during the year ended December 31, 2012, from $66.47 million during the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase is attributable to an increase in revenues in the vessel management segment from external customers of
  $1.55 million and an increase in revenues in the vessel ownership segment of $0.52 million.
Vessel ownership segment:In our vessel ownership segment, revenues increased by 0.93%, or $0.52 million, to $56.28 million during the year ended December 31, 2012, from $55.76 million during the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase is due to the extension of the charter party
  agreements for the two owned ships in May 2011, which increased the amount of revenue recorded on a straight-line basis. In addition there were two more operating days in 2012.
Vessel management segment:Revenues of GasLog LNG Services increased by 28.59%, or $3.80 million, to $17.09 million, from $13.29 million, of which $12.26 million and $10.71 million was from external customers, during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. This
  increase in revenue from external customers of $1.55 million is attributable to increased professional services and additional assignments, partially offset by a decrease in the performance bonus we received from BG Group for the management of its ships. The increase of $2.25 million in inter-segment
  revenues is mainly attributable to an increase of $2.99 million in revenue from newbuilding supervision, an increase of $0.09 million in revenue from predelivery management fees for the first two vessels that will be delivered in 2013, partially offset by a decrease of $0.80 million in consultancy services
  fees charged to the vessel ownership segment since the consultancy services were terminated in June 2011. Revenues from newbuilding supervision, predelivery management fees and consultancy services are eliminated on a Group basis. The newbuilding program will be effective until 2016 when all of our
  Group newbuildings will be delivered.
59

Vessel Operating and Supervision Costs:
Consolidated vessel operating and supervision costs increased by 13.13%, or $1.70 million, to $14.65 million during the year ended December 31, 2012, from $12.95 million during the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase is mainly attributable to an increase of $0.78 million in employee costs
  related to new employees hired to fulfill new requirements from our existing customers and an increase of $0.68 million in the vessel ownership segment.
Vessel ownership segment:Vessel operating costs in the segment increased by 6.73%, or $0.68 million, to $10.78 million during the year ended December 31, 2012, from $10.10 million during the year ended December 31, 2011, primarily due to increased technical maintenance and crew
  expenses.
Vessel management segment:Vessel operating and supervision costs of GasLog LNG Services increased by 65.67%, or $3.08 million, to $7.77 million during the year ended December 31, 2012, from $4.69 million during the year ended December 31, 2011, due to new employees hired in order
  to fulfill new requirements from our existing customers and due to an increase in the number of the owned ships under construction supervision, which amounts are eliminated in consolidation.
General and Administrative Expenses:
Consolidated general and administrative expenses increased by 27.38%, or $4.38 million, to $20.38 million during the year ended December 31, 2012, from $16.00 million during the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase is mainly attributable to an increase of $2.87 million in unallocated
  segment and an increase of $1.70 million in vessel management, partially offset by a decrease of $0.99 million in vessel ownership segment.
Vessel ownership segment:General and administrative expenses in the segment decreased by 86.84%, or $0.99 million, to $0.15 million during the year ended December 31, 2012, from $1.14 million during the year ended December 31, 2011. The $1.14 million in general and administrative
  expenses allocated to the vessel ownership segment for the year ended December 31, 2011 included $0.80 million of fees paid by the vessel ownership segment to the vessel management segment in connection with consultancy services relating to newbuildings under construction during 2011. These
  consultancy fees were recorded as revenue of the vessel management segment and eliminated on consolidation. The consultancy services agreement was terminated in June 2011. The decrease in general and administrative expenses of $0.99 million derives mainly from the aforementioned decrease in
  consultancy service fees and a decrease of $0.17 million in legal fees due to the registration expenses for the vessel-owning companies in 2011.
Vessel management segment:General and administrative expenses in the segment increased by 28.26%, or $1.71 million, to $7.76 million during the year ended December 31, 2012, from $6.05 million during the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase in general and administrative
  expenses is attributable to an increase of $1.30 million in training and familiarization costs for the seamen that will join the newbuildings upon delivery, an increase of $0.16 million in legal and professional fees, an increase of $0.10 million in office expenses and an increase of $0.15 million in other
  general and administrative expenses during the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to the year ended December 31, 2011.
Unallocated:Unallocated general and administrative expenses increased by 29.86%, or $2.87 million, to $12.48 million during the year ended December 31, 2012, from $9.61 million during the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase is mainly attributable to (a) an increase of $1.38
  million in personnel costs due to an increase in the number of employees and an increase in other personnel-related expenses related to the planned growth and the reporting and compliance requirements of being a public company, (b) an increase of $0.29 million in directors fees, (c) an increase of
  $1.06 million in travel expenses, (d) an increase of $1.05 million in legal and professional fees, (e) an increase of $0.75 million in managers liability insurance. This increase in unallocated general and administrative expenses was partially offset by a $0.82 million decrease in equity-settled compensation
  expense, a decrease of $0.60 million in foreign exchange losses and a decrease of $0.24 million in other unallocated expenses.
60

Financial Costs:
Consolidated financial costs increased by 21.18%, or $2.04 million, to $11.67 million during the year ended December 31, 2012, from $9.63 million during the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase is mainly attributable to the vessel ownership segment.
Vessel ownership segment:Financial costs in the segment increased by 21.11%, or $2.02 million, to $11.59 million during the year ended December 31, 2012, from $9.57 million during the year ended December 31, 2011, as a result of the interest expense on outstanding indebtedness used to
  finance the purchase of the GasLog Savannahand the GasLog Singapore. During the year ended December 31, 2012, we had an average of $269.10 million of outstanding indebtedness with a weighted average interest rate of 3.94% and during the year ended December 31, 2011, we had an average of
  $296.70 million of outstanding indebtedness with a weighted average interest rate of 2.92%. The increase in average interest rate is due to the Group entering into an additional fixed interest rate swap agreement related to the GAS-one Ltd. facility in October 2011.
Financial Income:
Consolidated financial income increased by $1.13 million to $1.17 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from $0.04 million during the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase is mainly attributable to increased interest income from fixed time deposits due to the increase in cash and cash
  equivalents and short-term investments following our IPO.
Loss on Swaps:
Consolidated loss on interest rate swaps, net increased by $4.05 million to $6.78 million during the year ended December 31, 2012, from $2.73 million during the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase is attributable to the vessel ownership segment.
Vessel ownership segment:In our vessel ownership segment, loss on interest rate swaps increased by $4.05 million to $6.78 million during the year ended December 31, 2012, from $2.73 million during the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase is attributable to a $4.62 million loss from
  the mark-to-market valuation of six interest rate swaps signed in 2012 and carried at fair value through profit and loss, partially offset by the decrease of $0.17 million in loss relating to the ineffective portion of the changes in the fair value of the interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedging
  instruments and a $0.40 million decrease in loss recognized at the inception of the interest swaps signed in 2012 and designated as cash flow hedging instruments.
Share of Profit of Associate:
Our consolidated share of profits from our interest in Egypt LNG decreased by 17.56%, or $0.23 million, to $1.08 million during the year ended December 31, 2012, from $1.31 million during the year ended December 31, 2011, mainly because of the scheduled drydocking in 2012, which resulted in
  lower revenues associated with the off-hire days and increased repairs and maintenance normally undertaken during the drydocking period.
Profit for the Year:
Consolidated profit decreased by 69.02%, or $9.47 million, to $4.25 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, from $13.72 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 as a result of the aforementioned factors.
Customers
Historically, we have derived nearly all of our revenues from one customer, BG Group. For the year ended December 31, 2013, we received 90.7% of our revenues from BG Group, 0.5% of our revenues from Egypt LNG, an entity in which we have a 25% ownership interest, 1.3% of our revenues
  from Shell, 6.9% of our revenues from various charterers in the spot market and 0.6%
61

from another customer. For the year ended December 31, 2012, we received 97.4% of our revenues from BG Group, 1.2% of our revenues from Egypt LNG and 1.4% from another customer.
Seasonality
Since our owned ships are mainly employed under multi-year, fixed-rate charter arrangements, seasonal trends do not impact the revenues earned by our vessel ownership segment during the year. In the future, seasonality may impact the revenues of our ships operating under spot or seasonal charter
  arrangements. Seasonality also does not have a significant impact on revenues earned by our vessel management segment, as we provide technical ship management and ship construction supervision services under fixed-rate agreements.
Additionally, our business is not subject to seasonal borrowing requirements.
B. Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2013, GasLog has financed its capital requirements with contributions from its shareholders, proceeds from our IPO, operating cash flows and long-term bank borrowings. Our primary short-term liquidity needs are to fund our ship operating expenses, finance the purchase and
  construction of our newbuildings and secondhand ships and service our existing debt. Our long-term liquidity needs primarily relate to debt repayment and scheduled installment payments to the shipyard in respect of newbuilds due to be delivered. In monitoring our working capital needs, we project our
  charter hire income and ships maintenance and running expenses, as well as debt service obligations, and seek to maintain adequate cash reserves in order to address any budget overruns.
We anticipate that our primary sources of funds will be available cash, cash from operations and borrowings under our loan agreements, along with any borrowings under new credit facilities or proceeds of equity financings that we may pursue from time to time. We believe that these sources of
  funds will be sufficient to meet our liquidity needs, although there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain future financing on terms acceptable to us.
On January 22, 2014, we completed a follow-on public equity offering of 10,925,000 common shares and a concurrent private placement of 2,317,460 common shares at a price of $15.75 per share. The net proceeds from the public offering and the private placement, after deducting underwriting
  discounts and other offering expenses, were approximately $199.4 million. As of March 26, 2014, we had available $350.4 million under a Form F-3 shelf registration statement for future issuances of securities in the public market.
Our funding and treasury activities are intended to maximize investment returns while maintaining appropriate liquidity. Cash and cash equivalents are held primarily in U.S. dollars with approximately 8% held in euros as of December 31, 2013. On June 21, 2013, we entered into three CCSs to
  exchange interest payments and principal on maturity on the same terms as the Bond Agreement and designated the CCSs as hedges of the variability of the USD functional currency equivalent cash flows on the bond. Refer to Note 21 to our audited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere
  in this annual report for details on our swap arrangements.
In 2012, the Company adopted what it considers to be conservative risk management policies to be used as a guideline in managing risks arising from our business and treasury activities. The Treasury Policies and Procedures aim to ensure that: responsibilities for treasury activities are delegated
  appropriately; treasury risks are identified, quantified and actively managed in a timely manner; and treasury transactions are properly authorized, controlled, reported and monitored.
In addition, during 2012 the Company established a set of Counterparty Risk Policies and Procedures formalizing our counterparty credit risk management process with an aim to protect against unwarranted credit exposures and to seek to manage counterparty risk. The purpose of the Counterparty
  Risk Policies and Procedures is to: provide general principles to guide counterparty credit risk management process; identify and actively manage counterparty risks; and delegate authority to approve additional counterparty risk on the Company.
62

As of December 31, 2013, we had $103.80 million of cash and cash equivalents, of which $3.09 million was held in a retention account in connection with the next installment and interest payment due under the credit facilities entered into by our subsidiaries GAS-two Ltd. and GAS-three Ltd., $28.78
  million was held in time deposits and $8.15 million was held in ship management client accounts. Moreover, as of December 31, 2013, we had $4.50 million held in time deposits with an initial duration of more than three months but less than a year that have been classified as short-term investments. The
  funds in the ship management client accounts were held on behalf of customers of our vessel management segment to cover operating expenses of customer-owned ships operating under our management.
As of December 31, 2013, we had an aggregate of $1.06 billion of indebtedness outstanding under six credit agreements, of which $104.75 million is repayable within one year, which includes $39.49 million under the revolving credit facility, and we had $82.23 million outstanding under our bond that
  is payable in June 2018.
As of December 31, 2013 there is an undrawn amount of $10.51 million from the revolving facility of GAS-two Ltd. from which $2.68 million was drawn in January 2014 and the balance is available to be drawn under certain conditions. In addition, there is one loan facility with an aggregate undrawn
  amount of $435 million available that will be used to finance a portion of the contract prices of three of our newbuildings up on their deliveries. For more details, see Capital Expenditures.
The total contract price for our seven newbuildings on order as of December 31, 2013, was approximately $1.39 billion, of which $119.17 million was paid as of December 31, 2013. The balance is payable under each shipbuilding contract in installments upon the attainment of certain specified
  milestones, with the largest portion of the purchase price for each ship coming due upon its delivery. We are scheduled to take delivery of the seven newbuildings on various dates in 2014, 2015 and 2016. As noted above, as of December 31, 2013, we had one unused loan facility available to us
  aggregating $435 million to finance a portion of the contract prices for three newbuildings. The balance of the total contract price will be funded by available cash, cash from operations and new financings. We also have options to acquire up to six additional newbuilding LNG carriers that expire in the
  end of the first quarter of 2014. In the event we decide to exercise these options, we expect to finance the costs with cash from operations and a combination of debt and equity financing.
As our fleet expands, we will evaluate changes to the quarterly dividend consistent with our cash flow and liquidity position. Our policy is to pay dividends in amounts that will allow us to retain sufficient liquidity to fund our obligations as well as execute our business plan going forward. Our board
  of directors will determine the timing and amount of all dividend payments, based on various factors, including our earnings, financial condition, cash requirements and availability, restrictions in our credit facilities and the provisions of Bermuda law. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee that we will be able
  to pay quarterly dividends. See Item 3. Key InformationD. Risk Factors and Item 8. Financial InformationA. Consolidated Financial Statements and Other Financial InformationDividend Policy for a discussion of risks related to our ability to pay dividends.
Working Capital Position
Taking into account generally expected market conditions, we anticipate that cash flow generated from operations will be sufficient to fund our operations, including our working capital requirements, and to make the required principal and interest payments on our indebtedness during the next 12
  months.
As of December 31, 2013, our current assets totaled $126.23 million while current liabilities totaled $158.83 million, resulting in a negative working capital position of $32.6 million. Current liabilities include an amount of $39.49 million being the outstanding revolving facility (refer to Credit Facilities
  below) that will be extended to future periods on its due date.

    278,811The net cash movements during the year ended December 31, 2013, differ significantly from those of the year ended December 31, 2012, in line with the Companys growth and fleet expansion.
Net Cash From Operating Activities
Net cash from operating activities increased by $61.83 million, to $86.75 million in the year ended December 31, 2013, from $24.92 million during the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase was due to an increase of $93.78 million in revenue collections, favorable changes in cash from ship
  management creditors amounting to $7.55 million and a decrease of $4.71 million in security collaterals, partially offset by an increase of $28.04 million in payments for general and administrative expenses, operating expenses and inventories, an increase of $10.45 million in cash paid for interest and $5.73
  million in realized losses on interest rate swaps held for trading.
Net Cash Used In Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities increased by $722.90 million, to $935.52 million in the year ended December 31, 2013, from $212.62 million in the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase is mainly attributable to a $928.46 million increase in payments for the construction costs of
  newbuildings and the acquisition of the second hand vessel, a decrease of $0.46 million in interest income received partially offset by a $1.08 million decrease in payments for other tangible assets, the net decrease in short-term investments of $203.90 million, an increase of $0.69 million of dividends we
  received from Egypt LNG and $0.36 million we received from Egypt LNG as a return of capital.
Net Cash From Financing Activities
Net cash from financing activities increased by $561.67 million, to $840.48 million in the year ended December 31, 2013, from $278.81 million in the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase is mainly attributable to $1,026.20 million drawn from our bank loan facilities and the bond (2012: nil) and
  a decrease of $1.44 million in payment of loan issuance costs, partially offset by an increase of $21.37 million in dividend payments and an increase of $115.19 million in bank loan repayments. The cash from financing activities in the year ended December 31, 2012 was further affected by the net IPO
  proceeds of $310.74 million and the capital contributions received from our pre-IPO shareholders of $18.66 million (2013: nil).

Net cash from operating activities decreased by 7.70%, or $2.08 million, to $24.92 million in the year ended December 31, 2012, from $27.00 million in the year ended December 31, 2011. The decrease was due to an increase of $2.54 million in cash paid for interest, an increase of $6.20 million in
  payments for general and administrative expenses, operating expenses and inventories, and an increase of $2.36 million in security collaterals, which items were partially offset by an increase of $3.49 million in revenue collections and favorable changes in cash from ship management creditors amounting to
  $5.53 million.
Net Cash Used In Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities increased by $126.16 million to $212.62 million in the year ended December 31, 2012, from $86.46 million in the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase was mainly attributable to $103.82 million placed in time deposits with initial durations of more than three
  months but less than a year, a $22.40 million increase in payments for the construction costs of newbuildings and a $0.33 million increase in payments for other tangible assets, a $0.50 million decrease in return of capital we received from Egypt LNG and also a decrease of $0.14 million of dividends we
  received from Egypt LNG, partially offset by an increase of $0.98 million in interest income received.
Net Cash From Financing Activities
Net cash from financing activities increased by $222.52 million to $278.81 million in the year ended December 31, 2012, from $56.29 million in the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase was mainly attributable to the proceeds from the completion of our IPO of $314.26 million and a $2.43
  million decrease in scheduled bank loan repayments, partially offset by a $6.14 million increase in dividends paid, a $74.31 million decrease in capital contributions that we received from our pre-IPO shareholders, a $11.46 million increase in payments of loan issuance costs and a $2.24 million increase in
  payments of IPO costs.

    for certain of our facilities, a first priority assignment of all earnings and insurances related to the ship owned by the respective borrower.Our business is not subject to seasonal borrowing requirements.
Covenants and Events of Default
Our credit facilities impose certain operating and financial restrictions on us. These restrictions generally limit our subsidiaries ability to, among other things:

    
    
    
    incur additional indebtedness, create liens or provide guarantees;
    
    
    
    provide any form of credit or financial assistance to, or enter into any non-arms length transactions with, us or any of our affiliates;
    
    
    
    sell or otherwise dispose of assets, including our ships;

    undergo a change in ownership; or
    
    
    
    acquire assets, make investments or enter into any joint venture arrangements outside of the ordinary course of business.Our credit facilities also impose specified financial covenants that apply to us and our subsidiaries on a consolidated basis. These financial covenants include the following:

    
    
    
    our net working capital (excluding the current portion of long-term debt) must be positive;
    
    
    
    our total indebtedness divided by our total capitalization must not exceed 75%;67


    
    
    
    beginning December 31, 2013, the ratio of EBITDA over our debt service obligations (including interest and debt repayments) on a trailing 12 months basis must be no less than 110%;
    
    
    
    beginning December 31, 2013, the aggregate amount of all unencumbered cash and cash equivalents must exceed the higher of 3% of our total indebtedness or $20 million after the first drawdown;
    
    
    
    we are permitted to pay dividends, provided that we hold unencumbered cash equal to at least 4% of our total indebtedness, subject to no event of default having occurred or occurring as a consequence of the payment of such dividends; and
    
    
    
    our market value adjusted net worth must at all times exceed $350 million.Our credit facilities also impose certain restrictions relating to us and our other subsidiaries, including restrictions that limit our ability to make any substantial change in the nature of our business or to engage in transactions that would constitute a change of control, as defined in the relevant credit
  facility, without repaying all of our indebtedness in full, or to allow our largest shareholders to reduce their shareholding in us below specified thresholds.
The loan agreement we entered into in March 2012 for a $272.5 million credit facility provides that the lenders thereunder will have an option that gives them the right to request repayment of the facility in full on the fifth anniversary of the delivery of the GasLog Shanghai, which was delivered in
  January 2013.
Certain of our credit facilities also contain vessel employment conditions, pursuant to which we could be required in the event of a charter termination to deposit cash in an account held with the applicable lender until we have obtained a new time charter on terms acceptable to such lender. In
  addition, we are required under one of our facilities to secure charters for the ships identified by hull numbers 2043 and 2044, on terms approved by the lenders, at least 60 days prior to the scheduled delivery date of the applicable ship.
Our credit facilities contain customary events of default, including nonpayment of principal or interest, breach of covenants or material inaccuracy of representations, default under other material indebtedness and bankruptcy. In addition, each facility contains covenants requiring that the fair market
  value of the ship securing the facility remains above 120% of all amounts outstanding under the applicable facility. In the event that the value of a ship falls below the threshold, we could be required to provide the lender with additional security or prepay a portion of the outstanding loan balance, which
  could negatively impact our liquidity.
The Company is not in default under any of its credit facilities.
Senior Unsecured Notes
On June 27, 2013, we issued a NOK 500 million (or $83.21 million based on the exchange rate on June 27, 2013) bond that will mature on June 27, 2018. The Bond bears interest at NIBOR plus margin. Interest payments shall be made in arrears on a quarterly basis. The carrying amount of the
  Bond, net of unamortized financing costs, as of December 31, 2013 is $79.78 million. We may redeem the Bond in whole or in part as follows: (a) with settlement date at any time from June 27, 2016 to but not included June 27, 2017 at 105.00% of par plus accrued interests on redeemed amount, (b) with
  settlement date at any time from June 27, 2017 to but not including December 27, 2017 at 103.00% of par plus accrued interests on redeemed amount, and (c) with settlement date at any time from December 27, 2017 to but not including the maturity date at 101.75% of par plus accrued interests on
  redeemed amount.
As issuer of the Bond we are required to comply with the financial covenants listed below:

    
    
    
    total indebtedness divided by total capitalization must not exceed 75%;
    
    
    
    beginning December 31, 2013, the ratio of EBITDA over debt service obligations (including interest and debt repayments) on a trailing 12 months basis must be no less than 110%;68


    
    
    
    beginning December 31, 2013, the aggregate amount of all unencumbered cash and cash equivalents must exceed the higher of 3% of total indebtedness or $20,000,000 after the first drawdown; and
    
    
    
    the Groups market value adjusted net worth must at all times exceed $350,000,000.In addition we are not permitted to (i) declare or make any dividend payment or distribution, whether in cash or in kind, (ii) repurchase any of our shares or undertake other similar transactions (including, but not limited to total return swaps related to shares in the issuer), or (iii) grant any loans or
  make other distributions or transactions constituting a transfer of value to its shareholders (items (i), (ii) and (iii) collectively referred to as the Distributions) that in aggregate exceed during any calendar year 50% of the Groups consolidated net profit after taxes based on the audited annual accounts
  for the previous financial year (any un-utilized portion of the permitted dividend pursuant to the above may not be carried forward). Notwithstanding the above, for the years 2013 and 2014, the issuer may make Distributions up to a maximum of 60 cents per share per annum subject to the issuer,
  immediately after such distributions, maintaining consolidated free liquidity of not less than (i) $20,000,000 and (ii) 4% of total indebtedness. Any net profit of a Group company related to sale of assets shall in any event not form a basis for any Distributions.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
For information about our exposure to market risks, see Item 11. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Capital Expenditures
We make capital expenditures from time to time in connection with the expansion and operation of our owned fleet. In 2010 we took delivery of two LNG carriers and in 2013 we took delivery of six LNG carriers and acquired a second-hand vessel. During the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012
  and 2011, we funded $1.04 billion, $109.35 million and $86.95 million, respectively, of construction and delivery costs, including installment payments on newbuildings, with funds borrowed under credit facilities and the Bond, capital contributions from our pre-IPO shareholders and proceeds from our IPO.
As of December 31, 2013, our commitments for capital expenditures related to the seven contracted LNG carriers on order. In 2014, we signed an agreement with MSL, an affiliate of BG Group to purchase three LNG carriers from MSLs fleet and to charter those ships back to MSL for six-year
  initial terms. The outstanding commitment for our seven newbuildings on order and the three ships that will be acquired from MSL as of March 26, 2014 was approximately $1.73 billion. Amounts are payable under each shipbuilding contract in installments upon the attainment of certain specified
  milestones in each ships construction, with the largest portion of the purchase price for each ship coming due upon its delivery.
We intend to fund these commitments with borrowings under one loan agreement we have entered into with an aggregate undrawn amount of $435 million as of March 26, 2014, the loan agreement to be entered into pursuant to the commitment from Citibank for $325.5 million of debt financing, new
  debt agreements, the proceeds from our IPO and the proceeds from our follow-on equity offering and private placement. In the event we decide to exercise our options to order six additional ships from Samsung, we expect to finance the costs with cash from operations and a combination of debt and
  equity financing.
To the extent that we are unable to draw down the amounts committed under our credit facilities, we will need to find alternative financing. If we are unable to find alternative financing, we will not be capable of funding all of our commitments for capital expenditures relating to our contracted
  newbuildings, which could adversely impact our ability to pay dividends to our shareholders, and materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

Critical Accounting Policies
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB. The preparation of those financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments
  that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosure at the date of our financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions. Critical accounting policies are those that reflect significant judgments of
  uncertainties and potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. We have described below what we believe are our most critical accounting policies, because they generally involve a comparatively higher degree of judgment in their application. For a description
  of all our principal accounting policies, see Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this annual report.
Ship Cost, Lives and Residual Value
When determining ship cost, we recognize both the installment payments paid to the shipyard along with any directly attributable costs of bringing the ships to their working condition incurred during the construction periods as ship costs. Directly attributable costs incurred during the ship construction
  period consist of capitalized borrowing costs, commissions, on-site supervision costs, costs for sea trials, certain spare parts and equipment, lubricants and other ship delivery expenses. Any vendor discounts are deducted from the cost of our ships. Subsequent expenditures for conversions and major
  improvements are also capitalized when the recognition criteria are met.
The ship cost component is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the expected useful life of each ship, based on the cost of the ship less its estimated residual value. We estimate the useful lives of our ships to be 35 years from the date of delivery from the shipyard, which we believe is within
  industry standards and represents the most reasonable useful life for each of our ships. Furthermore, we estimate the residual values of our ships to be 10% of the initial ship cost, which represents our estimate of the current market value of the ships as if they were at the end of their useful lives at the
  time we make such estimate. The estimated residual value of our ships may not represent the fair market value at any one time, in part because there has historically been very little scrapping of LNG carriers and because market prices of scrap values tend to fluctuate. We might revise our estimate of
  the residual values of our ships in the future in response to changing market conditions.
An increase in the estimated useful lives of our ships or in their residual value would have the effect of decreasing the annual depreciation charge and extending it into later periods. A decrease in the useful life of our ships or their residual value would have the effect of increasing the annual
  depreciation charge.
When we are faced with regulations that place significant limitations on the ability of one of our ships to trade on a worldwide basis, we adjust the ships useful life to end at the date such regulations become effective.
We must periodically drydock each of our ships for inspection, repairs and any modifications. At the time of delivery of a ship from the shipyard, we estimate the drydocking component of the cost of the ship, representing estimated costs to be incurred during the first drydocking at the drydock yard
  for a special survey and parts and supplies used in making required major repairs that meet the recognition criteria, based on our historical experience with similar types of ships.
We use judgment when estimating the period between drydockings performed, which can result in adjustments to the estimated amortization of the drydocking expense. If a ship is disposed of before its next drydocking, the remaining balance of the deferred drydock is written off and forms part of
  the gain or loss recognized upon disposal of ships in the period when contracted. We expect that our ships will be required to be drydocked approximately 60 months after their delivery from the shipyard and thereafter every 30 or 60 months our ships will be required to undergo special or intermediate
  surveys and be drydocked for major repairs and maintenance that cannot be performed
70

while the ships are operating. We amortize our estimated drydocking expenses for the first special survey over five years, but this estimate might be revised in the future.
Costs that will be capitalized as part of the future drydockings will include a variety of costs incurred directly attributable to the drydocking and costs incurred to meet classification and regulatory requirements, as well as expenses related to the dock preparation and port expenses at the drydock
  shipyard, general shipyard expenses, expenses related to hull, external surfaces and decks, expenses related to machinery and engines of the vessel, as well as expenses related to the testing and correction of findings related to safety equipment on board. Drydocking costs do not include vessel operating
  expenses such as replacement parts, crew expenses, provisions, lubricants consumption, insurance, management fees or management costs during the drydocking period. Expenses related to regular maintenance and repairs of our vessels are expensed as incurred, even if such maintenance and repair occurs
  during the same time period as our drydocking.
Ordinary maintenance and repairs that do not extend the useful life of the asset are expensed as incurred. Major renovation costs and modifications are capitalized and depreciated over the estimated remaining useful life.
Fair Value of Derivative Financial Instruments
Our risk management policies permit the use of derivative financial instruments to manage interest rate risk and foreign exchange risk. Changes in fair value of derivative financial instruments that are not designated as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes are recognized in earnings.
A substantial majority of the fair value of our derivative instruments and the change in fair value of our derivative instruments from period to period result from our use of interest rate swap agreements. The fair value of our interest rate swap agreements in the estimated amount that we would
  receive or pay to terminate the agreements at the reporting date, taking into account current interest rates and the current credit worthiness of both us and the swap counterparties. The estimated amount is the present value of estimated future cash flows, being equal to the difference between the
  benchmark interest rate and the fixed rate in the interest rate swap agreement, multiplied by the notional principal amount of the interest rate swap agreement at each interest reset date.
The fair value of our interest and currency swap agreements at the end of each period are most significantly affected by the interest rate implied by market-observable data such as LIBOR yield curve, and forward foreign exchange rates. While the fair value of our interest and currency swap
  agreements are typically more sensitive to changes in short-term rates, significant changes in the long-term benchmark interest and foreign exchange rates also materially impact our interest and currency swap agreements.
The fair value of our interest and currency swap agreements are also affected by changes in our specific credit risk included in the discount factor. Following the implementation of IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement in January 1, 2013, the Group adjusts its derivative liabilities fair value to reflect its
  own credit risk and the counterparties risk. The estimate of the Groups credit risk is based on the credit rating of other companies in the LNG industry where publicly available, the rating of the global transportation industry where the shipping industry is included and the feedback that the Group
  receives from its lenders as part of the margin setting for the new loan agreements. The counterparties credit risk is estimated either by using the credit default swap rates obtained from public information or, if not available, by using the credit rating of the counterparties.
The LIBOR yield curve and our specific credit risk are expected to vary over the life of the interest rate swap agreements. The larger the notional amount of the interest rate swap agreements outstanding and the longer the remaining duration of the interest rate swap agreements, the larger the
  impact of any variability in these factors will be on the fair value of our interest rate swaps. We economically hedge the interest rate exposure on a significant amount of our long-term debt and for long durations. As such, we have historically experienced, and we expect to continue to experience,
  material variations in the period-to-period fair value of our derivative instruments.
71

Although we measure the fair value of our derivative instruments utilizing the inputs and assumptions described above, if we were to terminate the agreements at the reporting date, the amount we would pay or receive to terminate the derivative instruments may differ from our estimate of fair
  value. If the estimated fair value differs from the actual termination amount, an adjustment to the carrying amount of the applicable derivative asset or liability would be recognized in earnings for the current period. Such adjustments could be material. See Note 21 to our consolidated financial statements
  included elsewhere in this annual report for the effects on the change in fair value of our derivative instruments on our consolidated statements of profit or loss.
Measurement of Equity-Settled Employee Benefits Expense
The Group used an accepted valuation methodology to value the Stock Appreciation Rights granted in 2013. The inputs are based on observable market data and managements estimates. Details of the valuation methodology and significant assumptions used are set out in Note 18 of the consolidated
  financial statements included elsewhere in this annual report.
Impairment of Goodwill
We review goodwill for impairment at least annually. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill has been allocated to the cash-generating unit representing our management company, GasLog LNG Services, which was acquired by us in 2005.
In order to determine whether goodwill has been impaired, we estimate the value-in-use of the cash-generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated. The value-in-use calculation requires us to estimate the future cash flows expected to arise from the cash-generating unit and also a suitable
  discount rate in order to calculate present value representing recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit. In determining the value-in-use of the cash-generating unit as of December 31, 2013, we used cash flow projections based on financial budgets approved by us covering a four-year period and a
  terminal multiple of 8. Growth assumptions were based on conservative estimates and considered the number of ships expected to be under our management for which contracts were in place at the end of each year. The key assumptions used in the value-in-use calculations are as follows:

    
    
    
    average inflation of 2% per annum;
    
    
    
    a discount rate of 8% per annum;
    
    
    
    annual growth rate of nil; and
    
    
    
    1 euro = 1.38 U.S. dollars.We assessed the recoverable amount of goodwill at the end of each annual reportable period and concluded that goodwill associated with our cash-generating unit was not impaired. We believe that any reasonably possible further change in the key assumptions on which the recoverable amount is
  based would not cause the carrying amount of the cash-generating unit to exceed its recoverable amount.
Impairment of Vessels
The Group evaluates the carrying amounts of its vessels to determine whether there is any indication that those vessels have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of vessels is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss, if any.
Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to
  the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted. The projection of cash flows related to vessels is complex and requires management to make various estimates including future freight rates, earnings from the vessels and discount rates. All of these items have been historically
  volatile. In assessing the fair value less cost to sell of the vessel, the
72

Group obtains vessel valuations from leading, independent and internationally recognized ship brokers on an annual basis or when there is an indication that an asset or assets may be impaired. If an indication of impairment is identified, the need for recognizing an impairment loss is assessed by
  comparing the carrying amount of the vessels to the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value in use. No impairment loss was recognized for any of the periods presented in the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this annual report.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements

C. Research and Development, Patents and Licenses, etc.
We incur from time to time expenditures relating to inspections for acquiring new vessels. Such expenditures are insignificant and are expensed as they are incurred.
D. Trend Information
LNG Supply
According to Clarkson Research, the global seaborne trade of LNG cargoes was approximately 239 million tons per annum, or mtpa in 2012, almost the same as in 2011, albeit marginally down (by 2.8%). Declines in LNG exports from countries such as Yemen, Indonesia, Egypt and Algeria were
  partly offset by the commencement of production from the Pluto LNG project in Australia. Based on preliminary trade statistics, world seaborne trade in LNG trade is estimated to have declined by a further 0.4% in 2013. This marginal fall in trade is a result of limited liquefaction capacity growth over
  the course of the year, coupled with import declines in both the United States and Europe offsetting growth in non-OECD Asia. Looking ahead, based on the public announcements of major LNG producers, new LNG production volumes should become available in the 2014-2015 timeframe from projects
  in Angola, Australia, Papua New Guinea, Malaysia and Algeria, which should in turn support a growth in global LNG volumes. In the longer term, the United States may become a significant exporter of LNG, based on the existence of one project currently under development and several more projects
  in the design stage, as well as the release of a study in December 2012 commissioned by the U.S. Department of Energy that concluded that LNG exports would have a net beneficial effect on the U.S. economy. Very large gas discoveries offshore East Africa may also result in both Mozambique and
  Tanzania potentially becoming significant exporters of LNG in the longer term.
LNG Demand
Since 2008, the relatively low price of natural gas in the United States compared with the much higher prices paid by LNG buyers in the Far East and elsewhere has supported the long distance transport of LNG. Japan has been a key demand driver for LNG since the 2011 earthquake and tsunami.
  Japan, together with China, South Korea, India, and Brazil saw their seaborne LNG imports increase in 2012, compared to 2011. In 2012, GasLog also saw an increase in opportunities for multi-year charters of LNG ships on order. While over time various factors may cause the gas price disparity between
  regions to narrow, we believe that demand for gas, including LNG, will remain strong over at least the next several years in countries that must import oil and gas for fuel and feedstock.
Global LNG Fleet
According to Clarkson Research, the global fleet of dedicated LNG carriers stood at 387 ships of 55.6 million cbm as of March 1, 2014. In 2013, eighteen LNG carriers were delivered, and forty-four orders were placed, of which four were multi-gas carriers and one was a bunkering vessel. This high
  level of ordering was driven in part by the significant developments in plans for new liquefaction projects. Seven 1960s and 1970s built LNG carriers were reportedly sold for scrap in
73

2013 and the first two months of 2014, and ships of a similar age and propulsion-type have experienced idle time.
We believe that the development of new LNG supply projects and growing global demand for natural gas should support the existing order backlog for vessels and should also drive a need for more LNG carriers in the future. In addition, LNG project developers are typically large multinational oil
  and gas companies that have high standards for safety and reliability and a preference for modern LNG carriers with fuel-efficient ship design and propulsion, which should support the ability of experienced LNG operators, such as GasLog, to obtain new charters over new or less experienced operators.
  However, various factors, including changes in prices and demand for LNG can materially affect the competitive dynamics that currently exist.

77

William M. Friedrich, who serves as our senior independent director, acts as a liaison to facilitate communication between independent directors and our Chairman to ensure that the board functions in an effective manner.
B. Compensation of Directors and Senior Management
Our non-executive directors receive:

    
    
    
    an annual fee of $100,000;
    
    
    
    an additional annual fee of $20,000 to the senior independent director;
    
    
    
    additional annual fees of $100,000 to the Chairman of the board, $50,000 to the chairman of the audit and risk committee and $20,000 to the chairmen of the compensation committee, corporate governance and nominating committee and HSSE committee; and
    
    
    
    additional annual fees of $25,000 to each member of the audit and risk committee and $10,000 to each member of the compensation committee, corporate governance and nominating committee and HSSE committee (in each case other than the chairmen of such committees).The board of directors may determine that a portion of the above fees will be paid in shares rather than cash.
In addition, our directors receive reimbursement for their out-of-pocket expenses including travel costs and other short-term benefits. We do not have any service contracts with our directors that provide for benefits upon termination of their services.
For 2013, our executive officers were Paul Wogan, Simon Crowe (from April 2013), Henrik Bjerregaard (until March 31) and Graham Westgarth (from January 2013). Compensation for our executive officers in 2013 consisted of base salary and employee benefits that are generally provided to
  employees, including eligibility to receive a cash incentive bonus pursuant to our Management Incentive Plan, or MIP. The MIP provides all shore-based personnel (which includes our executive officers) an opportunity to earn a cash incentive payment based on a target percentage of the participants
  annual base salary, or ABS, subject to the achievement of pre-established individual and Company performance objectives, as well as a factor based on Company discretion. Each participants target percentage of ABS and the weightings assigned to the individual and Company performance objectives
  and the Company discretionary component are dependent on the participants organization (band) level. No amounts will be paid under the MIP to any participant who fails to achieve 50% of his or her target individual performance objectives. In 2013, the Company performance objectives were
  measured against three equally-weighted key business indicators: Free Cash Flow per Share, Absolute Return on Invested Capital and three-year rolling average Relative Total Shareholder Return. In addition, Company performance is evaluated against a safety factor based on Total Recordable Cases
  Frequency, in which a failure to meet the safety target may result in a reduction of the Company performance payout factor. We also established stretch goals under the individual and Company performance objectives, which if met would result in a payout at 120% of the individuals target percentage of
  ABS. The Company discretionary component may not increase an individuals payment to more than 200% of his or her target percentage of ABS. The amounts paid to our executive officers in 2013 pursuant to the MIP were determined based on the following weightings: individual performance (30%),
  Company performance (50%) and Company discretion (20%).
The aggregate amount of cash compensation, including cash incentive compensation, paid to our executive officers for the year ended December 31, 2013 was $2.79 million (which includes a relocation bonus for Graham Westgarth and does not include garden leave payments for Henrik Bjerregaard).
In addition, each of our executive officers was eligible to receive equity-based compensation awards in accordance with the 2013 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan, or the Plan. In May 2013, we granted our executive officers an aggregate of 202,865 stock appreciation rights and 40,324
  restricted stock units under the Plan, with an aggregate fair value as of the grant date of
78

$963,725.63. The stock appreciation rights have an exercise price per share of $13.26 and will vest in three equal annual installments, beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date, subject to the recipients continued service. The restricted stock units vest on the third anniversary of the grant date,
  subject to the recipients continued service. The stock appreciation rights and the restricted stock units may be settled in cash or common shares, or a combination thereof, at our discretion.
In the future, we intend to determine during the February meeting of the board of the directors which individuals, if any, will receive equity-based compensation awards under the Plan for such year and the amount of awards each participant will receive. In addition, we intend to grant such awards
  on April 1 of such year (or, should April 1 of such year fall on a weekend or bank holiday, on the first business day thereafter).
We did not set aside or accrue any amounts in the year ended December 31, 2013 to provide pension, retirement or similar benefits to our directors or executive officers.
Special Bonus
In July 2011, our board of directors approved the award of a special bonus of $3.8 million in the aggregate to certain key members of management for their achievements in the successful negotiation of commercial terms and conditions with the shipyard for the construction of two of the Groups
  newbuildings (Hull Number 2016 and Hull Number 2017). The balance is payable in installments consistent with the payments due to the shipyard. A total amount of $1.67 million was paid during the year ended December 31, 2013 pursuant to the special bonus. As of December 31, 2013, there is no
  outstanding amount in respect of the special bonus. See Note 17 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this annual report.
C. Board Practices
Our board of directors consists of nine members. The board of directors may change the number of directors to not less than three, nor more than fifteen. Each director shall be elected to serve until the next annual meeting of shareholders or until his successor is elected or appointed, except in the
  event of removal, death, disability, disqualification or resignation. A vacancy on the board created by removal, death, disability, disqualification or resignation of a director, or as a result of an increase in the size of the board, may be filled by the shareholders or by the board of directors.
We are a foreign private issuer under the securities laws of the United States and the rules of the NYSE. Under the securities laws of the United States, foreign private issuers are subject to different disclosure requirements than U.S. domiciled registrants, as well as different financial reporting
  requirements. Under the NYSE rules, a foreign private issuer is subject to less stringent corporate governance requirements. Subject to certain exceptions, the rules of the NYSE permit a foreign private issuer to follow its home country practice in lieu of the listing requirements of the NYSE,
  including (i) the requirement that a majority of the board of directors consist of independent directors, (ii) the requirement that the nominating committee be composed entirely of independent directors and have a written charter addressing the committees purpose and responsibilities, (iii) the
  requirement that the compensation committee be composed entirely of independent directors and have a written charter addressing the committees purpose and responsibilities and (iv) the requirement of an annual performance evaluation of the nominating and corporate governance and compensation
  committees. A majority of our board of directors qualify as independent. We have one or more non-independent directors serving as committee members on our compensation committee and our corporate governance and nominating committee. As a result, non-independent directors may, among other
  things, participate in fixing the compensation of our management, making share and option awards and resolving governance issues regarding our Company. Accordingly, in the future you may not have the same protections afforded to shareholders of companies that are subject to all of the NYSE
  corporate governance requirements.

The board of directors and our Companys management engage in an ongoing review of our corporate governance practices in order to oversee our compliance with the applicable corporate governance rules of the New York Stock Exchange and the SEC.
We have adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics for all directors, officers, employees and agents of the Company.
This document and other important information on our governance are posted on our website and may be viewed at http://www.gaslogltd.com. We will also provide a paper copy of any of these documents upon the written request of a shareholder at no cost. Shareholders may direct their
  requests to the attention of our Head of Legal, Line Køhler Ljungdahl, c/o GasLog Monaco S.A.M., Gildo Pastor Center, 7 Rue du Gabian, MC 98000, Monaco.
D. Employees
As of December 31, 2013, we had 103 full-time employees and 23 contractors and outsourced employees, all of whom are based in our offices in Piraeus, Greece, Monaco, or the newbuildings site at Samsung Heavy Industries in South Korea. In addition to our shoreside employees and sub-
  contractors, we had approximately 1,037 seafaring staff serving on our owned and managed ships. These seafarers are retained through crewing agencies based in Ukraine, the Philippines and Spain or, in the case of Greek seafarers, through short-term employment contracts. As we take delivery of our
  newbuildings, we expect to retain a significant number of additional seafarers qualified to man and operate our new ships, as well as additional shoreside personnel. We intend to focus our hiring efforts in the Ukrainian, Philippine and Spanish markets, where we have crewing agency agreements in place,
  and in Greece. The number of our shoreside employees, sub-contractors and seafaring staff increased significantly in 2012 due to the contracted expansion of our fleet.
LNG marine transportation is a specialized area requiring technically skilled officers and crew with specialized training. We regard attracting and retaining motivated, well-qualified seagoing personnel as a top priority, and we offer our crew competitive compensation packages. In addition, we provide
  intensive onboard training for our officers and crews to instill a culture of the highest operational and safety standards. As a result, we have historically enjoyed a high retention rate among our officers and other seafarers. In 2013, our retention rate was 93.0% for senior officers, 96.0% for other officers
  and 96.7% for shore staff.
Although we have historically experienced a high retention rate for our seafarers, the demand for technically skilled officers and crews to serve on LNG carriers has been increasing as the global fleet of LNG carriers continues to grow. This increased demand has and may continue to put inflationary
  pressure on crew costs. However, we expect that the impact of cost increases would be mitigated to some extent by certain provisions in our time charters, including review provisions and cost pass-through provisions.
E. Share Ownership
The common shares beneficially owned by our directors and executive officers and/or entities affiliated with these individuals is disclosed in Item 7. Major Shareholders and Related Party TransactionsA. Major Shareholders below. For information regarding arrangements for involving the employees

(Falconera), which may be deemed attributable to Mr. Livanos because he is an officer and a board member of Falconera. Mr. Livanos has a majority ownership interest in Blenheim Holdings through
      Ceres Shipping Ltd., and he is a beneficial owner of other shares held indirectly through Blenheim Holdings for the benefit of Mr. Livanos and members of his family. Mr. Livanoss ownership interest changed in connection with the sale of shares by Blenheim Holdings to the Alexander S. Onassis Foundation, or the Onassis Foundation, in December 2011 (see note 2), the
      purchase by Blenheim Holdings of certain outstanding manager shares in January 2012, and a transfer by Blenheim Holdings of 657,090 shares to one of its minority shareholders in March 2014 in exchange for such shareholders interest in Blenheim Holdings. Mr. Livanos effectively controls the Company through direct and indirect ownership interests.(2)
    
    
    
    By virtue of common shares held indirectly through its wholly owned subsidiary, Olympic LNG Investments Ltd. The shares were acquired from Blenheim Holdings in December 2011 and from the Company in a private placement in January 2014. The Alexander S.

B. Related Party Transactions
Restrictive Covenant Agreement
On April 4, 2012, Peter G. Livanos and Blenheim Holdings entered into a Restrictive Covenant Agreement with us, pursuant to which Mr. Livanos is prohibited from directly or indirectly owning, operating or managing LNG vessels, other than pursuant to his involvement with us. The restrictions will
  terminate in the event that Mr. Livanos ceases to beneficially own at least 20% of our issued and outstanding share capital.
Notwithstanding these restrictions, Mr. Livanos is permitted to engage in the following activities:

    
    
    
    passive ownership (a) of minority interests in any business that is not primarily engaged in owning, operating or managing LNG vessels or (b) constituting less than 5% of any publicly listed company; and
    
    
    
    non-passive participation in a business that acquires an interest in the ownership, operation or management of LNG vessels, provided that as promptly as reasonably practicable either (A) the business enters into an agreement to dispose of such competitive activity and such disposition is completed
      within a reasonable time, or (B) Mr. Livanoss participation in such business is changed so as to satisfy the exception for passive ownership of minority interests in a business that is not primarily engaged in a competitive activity.The restrictions described above do not apply to transactions by independent fund managers not acting under the direction or control of Mr. Livanos or Blenheim Holdings.
In addition, under the terms of the restrictive covenant agreement, Mr. Livanos and Blenheim Holdings agreed that, subject to the exceptions described below, they would not sell or dispose of any of our common shares owned by them as of the date of the agreement for a period of 18 months
  following the closing of GasLogs initial public offering.
As noted above, Mr. Livanos and Blenheim Holdings are permitted under the terms of the restrictive covenant agreement to dispose of our common shares in the following circumstances:

    
    
    
    pursuant to any transfer by Blenheim Holdings to its shareholders (including any division of the ownership interests in Blenheim Holdings of Mr. Livanos and members of the Radziwill family), provided that the transferee or transferees agree to be bound by the share transfer restrictions of the
      restrictive covenant agreement;
    
    
    
    pursuant to any private sale to a strategic investor in the Company, provided that the strategic investor agrees to be bound by the share transfer restrictions of the restrictive covenant agreement;
    
    
    
    in connection with any sale or transfer that would result in a change in control of the Company, provided that such change in control has been approved by our board of directors; and
    
    
    
    in transactions relating to shares acquired following the effective date of the restrictive covenant agreement.For purposes of the restrictive covenant agreement, a change of control means Mr. Livanos and Blenheim Holdings cease to beneficially own, in the aggregate, at least 38% of the issued and outstanding share capital of the Company. The share transfer restrictions described above will terminate as
  to any person that ceases to beneficially own, or does not beneficially own, at least 20% of our issued and outstanding share capital.
Registration Rights Agreement
On April 4, 2012, we entered into a registration rights agreement with certain of our shareholders, pursuant to which we granted such shareholders and their transferees the right, under certain circumstances and subject to certain restrictions, including restrictions included in the lock-up agreements to
  which they will be a party, to require us to register under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, our common shares held by those persons. Under the registration rights agreement, certain of our shareholders and their transferees have the right to
84

request us to register the sale of shares held by them on their behalf and may require us to make available shelf registration statements permitting sales of shares into the market from time to time over an extended period. While these demand registration rights are subject to certain timing and other
  restrictions, there is no limit on the number of times a shareholder may exercise such rights. In addition, those persons have the ability to exercise certain piggyback registration rights in connection with registered offerings initiated by us. Our shareholders who are party to the registration rights agreement
  own a total of 38,951,742 common shares entitled to these registration rights. In March 2014, these shareholders submitted a Demand Registration Request (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) to the Company. In response to the Request, as required under the Registration Rights
  Agreement, the Company is preparing a Registration Statement on Form F-3 registering the common shares entitled to registration rights in addition to other common shares held by the Companys directors and officers.
Subscription Agreements
On January 16, 2014, we entered into subscription agreements with certain of our directors and officers for a concurrent private placement of 2,317,460 common shares at a price of $15.75 per share.
Indemnification Agreements
We have entered into indemnification agreements with our directors and officers which provide, among other things, that we will indemnify our directors and officers, under the circumstances and to the extent provided for therein, for expenses, damages, judgments, fines, settlements and fees that they
  may be required to pay in actions or proceedings to which they are or may be made a party by reason of such persons position as a director, officer, employee or other agent of the Company, subject to, and to the maximum extent permitted by, applicable law.
Office Space and Related Arrangements
Through our subsidiary GasLog LNG Services, we lease our office space in Piraeus, Greece from an entity controlled by Ceres Shipping, Nea Dimitra Ktimatikh Kai Emporikh S.A. The lease agreement is filed with the Greek authorities, and has been entered into on market rates.
We lease our office space in London, England from Unisea Maritime Limited, an entity controlled by our chairman, Peter Livanos. We pay a fixed bi-monthly fee that is consistent with market rates for use of the office space and receptionist services.
GasLog LNG Services has also entered into an agreement with Seres S.A., an entity controlled by the Livanos family, for the latter to provide catering services to the staff based in our Piraeus office. Amounts paid pursuant to the agreement are generally less than€10 per person per day, but are
  slightly higher on special occasions. In addition, GasLog LNG Services has entered into an agreement with Seres S.A. for the latter to provide telephone and documentation services for our staff based in Piraeus. Amounts paid pursuant to the agreement are less than€100,000 per year.
Through our subsidiary GasLog Monaco S.A.M., we made payments to Ceres Monaco S.A.M., an affiliate of Ceres Shipping, for our office space in Monaco. Ceres Monaco S.A.M. leased operating space pursuant to a service agreement with a third-party property owner, and we occupied a portion of
  the leased space. The service level agreement was terminated in April 2012 when GasLog Monaco S.A.M. signed a rent agreement directly with the third party property owner. The amount of $0.03 million charged in the year ended December 31, 2013 relates to reimbursement of certain expenses paid by
  Ceres Monaco S.A.M. on behalf of the GasLog Monaco S.A.M.
Egypt LNG
We have a 25% ownership interest in Egypt LNG, whose principal asset is the LNG carrier Methane Nile Eagle, which is currently operating under a 20-year time charter with a subsidiary of BG Group. Through our subsidiary GasLog LNG Services, we supervised the construction of the
85

Methane Nile Eagle, which was delivered from the shipyard in 2007. Pursuant to a ship management agreement between GasLog LNG Services and Egypt LNG, the vessel has operated under our technical management since its delivery. From January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2013, we received a total of
  approximately $0.71 million in revenues from Egypt LNG in respect of our vessel management services.
Insurance Brokerage
We procure insurance for our ships through C Transport Maritime S.A.M., an affiliate of Ceres Shipping, which has a dedicated insurance function. This relationship is covered by an insurance and claims handling agreement under which we pay C Transport Maritime S.A.M. $10,000 per owned ship
  per annum and $3,000 per managed ship per annum, which we believe is consistent with market rates.
Shipbuilding Commissions
Pursuant to commission agreements with Samsung Heavy Industries, commissions due from the shipyard in relation to three of our newbuilding orders will be paid and for the GasLog Shanghai, the GasLog Santiago, the GasLog Sydney, the GasLog Skagenand the GasLog Seattle, such commissions
  were paid by Samsung Heavy Industries to DryLog Investments Ltd., an affiliate of Ceres Shipping. Upon receipt of the commissions, DryLog Investments Ltd. forwards the payments to our ship-owning subsidiaries, after deducting handling fees for each payment. In the aggregate, these handling fees will
  amount to less than $100,000 for the three newbuildings on order, the GasLog Shanghai, the GasLog Santiago, the GasLog Sydney, the GasLog Skagenand the GasLog Seattle.
Employee Incentive Program
In May 2009, Ceres Shipping provided a promissory letter to our subsidiary, GasLog LNG Services, relating to the funding of an employee incentive program we established for key employees of GasLog LNG Services. Pursuant to the promissory letter, Ceres Shipping agreed to contribute to GasLog
  LNG Services an amount equal to 2.8% of all dividends declared by us. These contributions from Ceres Shipping were in turn distributed to key employees of GasLog LNG Services through its wholly owned subsidiary, GasLog LNG Services Employee Incentive Scheme Ltd. The contributions by Ceres
  Shipping totaled $483,000 and $238,000 during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2011, respectively, and were recorded by us as non-cash capital contributions. The promissory letter from Ceres Shipping was terminated on August 31, 2012, and the related employee incentive program was terminated
  in 2013.
Other Transactions
For a description of additional related party transactions, see Note 17 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this annual report.
Procedures for Review and Approval of Related Party Transactions
Related party transactions, which means transactions in which the Company or one of its subsidiaries is a participant and any of the Companys directors, executive officers or significant shareholders, or any members of their immediate families or entities controlled by them, have a direct or indirect
  interest, will be subject to review and approval or ratification by our audit and risk committee in accordance with the Related Party Transaction Policy adopted by such committee.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
A. Consolidated Statements and Other Financial Information
See Item 18. Financial Statements below.
Legal Proceedings
We have not been involved in any legal proceedings that we believe may have a significant effect on our business, financial position, results of operations or liquidity, and we are not aware of any proceedings that are pending or threatened that may have a material effect on our business, financial
  position, results of operations or liquidity. From time to time, we may be subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business, principally property damage and personal injury claims. We expect that these claims would be covered by insurance, subject to customary deductibles.
  However, those claims, even if lacking merit, could result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources.
Dividend Policy
We paid our first cash dividend since becoming a public company in March 2012 on December 17, 2012 in an amount of $0.11 per share. We have subsequently paid dividends to holders of our common shares of $0.11 per share on March 25, 2013, June 11, 2013 and September 13, 2013, and $0.12
  per share on December 9, 2013 and March 25, 2014.
As our fleet expands, we will evaluate changes to the quarterly dividend consistent with our cash flow and liquidity position. Our policy is to pay dividends in amounts that will allow us to retain sufficient liquidity to fund our obligations as well as execute our business plan going forward. The
  declaration and payment of any dividend is subject to the discretion of our board of directors and the requirements of Bermuda law. In addition, our credit facilities impose limitations on our ability to pay dividends. Our board of directors will determine the timing and amount of all dividend payments,
  based on various factors, including our earnings, financial condition, cash requirements and availability, restrictions in our credit facilities and the provisions of Bermuda law. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to pay quarterly dividends. See Item 3. Key InformationD. Risk
  FactorsRisks Related to Our Business for a discussion of risks related to our ability to pay dividends.

A. Share Capital
Our authorized share capital consists of 500,000,000 shares, par value $0.01 per share, of which 62,863,166 common shares were issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2013.
Pursuant to our bye-laws, subject to any resolution of the shareholders to the contrary, our board of directors is authorized to issue any of our authorized but unissued common shares. There are no limitations on the right of non-Bermudians or non-residents of Bermuda to hold or vote our shares.
B. Memorandum of Association
We are an exempted company incorporated under the laws of Bermuda. We are registered with the Registrar of Companies in Bermuda under registration number 33928. We were incorporated on July 16, 2003 under the name Gaslog Ltd. We effected a change of name from Gaslog Ltd. to
  GasLog Ltd. on August 23, 2011 in compliance with the Companies Act. Our registered office is located at Clarendon House, 2 Church Street, Hamilton, HM 11, Bermuda.
The objects of our business are unrestricted, and the Company has the capacity of a natural person. We can therefore undertake activities without restriction on our capacity.
Common Shares
Holders of our common shares have no pre-emptive, redemption, conversion or sinking fund rights. Holders of our common shares are entitled to one vote per share on all matters submitted to a vote of holders of common shares. Unless a different majority is required by law or by our bye-laws,
  resolutions to be approved by holders of our common shares require approval by a simple majority of votes cast at a meeting at which a quorum is present.
In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of our common shares are entitled to share equally and ratably in our assets, if any, remaining after the payment of all of our debts and liabilities, subject to any liquidation preference on any issued and outstanding preference
  shares.
Preference Shares
Pursuant to Bermuda law and our bye-laws, our board of directors by resolution may establish one or more series of preference shares having such number of shares, designations, dividend rates,
88

relative voting rights, conversion or exchange rights, redemption rights, liquidation rights and other relative participation, optional or other special rights, qualifications, limitations or restrictions as may be fixed by the board without any further shareholder approval.
Dividend Rights
Under Bermuda law, a company may not declare or pay dividends if there are reasonable grounds for believing that: (i) the company is, or would after the payment be, unable to pay its liabilities as they become due; or (ii) the realizable value of its assets would thereby be less than its liabilities.
  Under our bye-laws, each common share is entitled to dividends if, as and when dividends are declared by our board of directors.
Any cash dividends payable to holders of our common shares listed on the NYSE will be paid to American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, our transfer agent in the United States for disbursement to those holders.
Variation of Rights
If at any time we have more than one class of shares, the rights attaching to any class, unless otherwise provided for by the terms of issue of the relevant class, may be varied with the sanction of a resolution passed by a majority of the issued shares of such class. Our bye-laws specify that the
  creation or issue of shares ranking equally with existing shares will not, unless expressly provided by the terms of issue of existing shares, vary the rights attached to existing shares.
Transfer of Shares
Our board of directors may in its absolute discretion and without assigning any reason refuse to register the transfer of a share that it is not fully paid. Our board of directors may also refuse to recognize an instrument of transfer of a share unless it is accompanied by the relevant share certificate
  and such other evidence of the transferors right to make the transfer as our board of directors shall reasonably require. In addition, our board of directors may refuse to register the transfer of a share unless all applicable consents, authorizations and permissions of any governmental body or agency in
  Bermuda have been obtained. Subject to these restrictions, a holder of common shares may transfer the title to all or any of his common shares by completing a form of transfer in the form set out in our bye-laws (or as near thereto as circumstances admit) or in such other common form as the board
  may accept. The instrument of transfer must be signed by the transferor and transferee, although in the case of a fully paid share our board of directors may accept the instrument signed only by the transferor.
Meetings of Shareholders
We are required to convene at least one general meeting of shareholders each calendar year. Bermuda law provides that a special general meeting of shareholders may be called by the board of directors of a company and must be called upon the request of shareholders holding not less than 10% of
  the paid-up capital of the company carrying the right to vote at general meetings. Bermuda law also requires that shareholders be given at least five days advance notice of a general meeting, but an unintentional failure notice to any person does not invalidate the proceedings at a meeting. Our bye-laws
  provide that the Chairman or our board of directors may convene an annual general meeting or a special general meeting. Under our bye-laws, at least 10 days notice of an annual general meeting or a special general meeting must be given to each shareholder entitled to vote at such meeting. This
  notice requirement is subject to the ability to hold such meetings on shorter notice if such notice is agreed: (i) in the case of an annual general meeting, by all of the shareholders entitled to attend and vote at such meeting; or (ii) in the case of a special general meeting, by a majority in number of the
  shareholders entitled to attend and vote at the meeting holding not less than 95% in nominal value of the shares entitled to vote at such meeting. The quorum required for a general meeting of shareholders is one or more persons present in person throughout the meeting and representing in person or by
  proxy in excess of 50% of all issued and
89

outstanding common shares. General meetings can be convened at a location in or outside of Bermuda. Our bye-laws provide that our board of directors may, but is not required to, make arrangements permitting shareholders to participate in general meetings by such telephonic, electronic or other
  communications facilities or means as permit all persons participating in the meeting to communicate with each other simultaneously and instantaneously.
Access to Books and Records and Dissemination of Information
Members of the general public have a right to inspect public documents of the Company available at the office of the Registrar of Companies in Bermuda. These documents include the Companys memorandum of association, including its objects and powers, and certain alterations to the
  memorandum of association. Our shareholders have the additional right to inspect the bye-laws of the Company, minutes of general meetings and the Companys audited financial statements, which must be presented to the annual general meeting. The Companys register of members is also open to
  inspection by shareholders and by members of the general public without charge. The register of members is required under Bermuda law to be open for inspection for not less than two hours in any business day (subject to the ability of a company to close the register of members for not more than
  thirty days in a year). The Company is required to maintain its share register in Bermuda but may, subject to the provisions of the Companies Act, establish a branch register outside of Bermuda. The Company is required to keep at its registered office a register of directors and officers that is open for
  inspection for not less than two hours in any business day by members of the public without charge. Bermuda law does not, however, provide a general right for shareholders to inspect or obtain copies of any other corporate records.
Election and Removal of Directors
Our bye-laws provide that our board shall consist of no less than three directors and no more than fifteen directors, as the board of directors may from time to time determine. Our board of directors consists of eight directors.
Any shareholder wishing to propose for election as a director someone who is not an existing director or is not proposed by our board must give notice of the intention to propose the person for election. Where a director is to be elected at an annual general meeting, that notice must be given not
  less than 90 days nor more than 120 days before the anniversary of the last annual general meeting prior to the giving of the notice or, in the event the annual general meeting is called for a date that is not 30 days before or after such anniversary, the notice must be given not later than 10 days
  following the earlier of the date on which notice of the annual general meeting was posted to shareholders or the date on which public disclosure of the date of the annual general meeting was made. Where a director is to be elected at a special general meeting that notice must be given not later than 10
  days following the earlier of the date on which notice of the special general meeting was posted to shareholders or the date on which public disclosure of the date of the special general meeting was made.
A director may be removed by the shareholders, provided notice of the shareholders meeting convened to remove the director is given to the director. The notice must contain a statement of the intention to remove the director and must be served on the director not less than 14 days before the
  meeting. The director is entitled to attend the meeting and be heard on the motion for his or her removal.
Proceedings of Board of Directors
Our bye-laws provide that our business is to be managed and conducted by our board of directors. Bermuda law requires that our directors be individuals, but there is no requirement in our bye-laws or Bermuda law that directors hold any of our shares. There is also no requirement in our bye-laws
  or Bermuda law that our directors must retire at a certain age.
The remuneration of our directors is determined by the board of directors, and there is no requirement that a specified number or percentage of independent directors must approve any
90

such determination. Our directors may also be paid all travel, hotel and other expenses properly incurred by them in connection with our business or their duties as directors.
Director Conflicts of Interest
Any conflict of interest question involving one or more of the Companys directors will be resolved by the audit and risk committee of the board of directors.
In the event that a director has a direct or indirect interest in any contract or arrangement with the Company, provided that the director discloses such interest as required by Bermuda law, such director is entitled under our bye-laws to vote in respect of any such contract or arrangement in which he
  or she is interested unless he or she is disqualified from voting by the Chairman of our board of directors. In the event that the Chairman has disclosed a direct or indirect interest in a contract or arrangement with us, the determination as to whether the Chairman and any other interested director should
  be disqualified from voting will be made by a majority of the disinterested directors.
Bermuda law prohibits any director (including the spouse or children of the director or any company of which such director, spouse or children own or control more than 20% of the capital or loan debt) from borrowing from us (except loans made to directors who are bona fide employees or former
  employees pursuant to an employees share scheme) unless shareholders holding 90% of the total voting rights have consented to the loan.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Section 98 of the Companies Act provides generally that a Bermuda company may indemnify its directors, officers and auditors against any liability which by virtue of any rule of law would otherwise be imposed on them in respect of any negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust, except
  in cases where such liability arises from fraud or dishonesty of which such director, officer or auditor may be guilty in relation to the company. Section 98 further provides that a Bermuda company may indemnify its directors, officers and auditors against any liability incurred by them in defending any
  proceedings, whether civil or criminal, in which judgment is awarded in their favor or in which they are acquitted or granted relief by the Supreme Court of Bermuda pursuant to section 281 of the Companies Act.
We have adopted provisions in our bye-laws that provide that we shall indemnify our officers and directors in respect of their actions and omissions, except in respect of their fraud or dishonesty. Our bye-laws provide that the shareholders waive all claims or rights of action that they might have,
  individually or in right of the Company, against any of the Companys directors or officers for any act or failure to act in the performance of such directors or officers duties, except in respect of any fraud or dishonesty of such director or officer. Section 98A of the Companies Act permits us to purchase
  and maintain insurance for the benefit of any officer or director in respect of any loss or liability attaching to him in respect of any negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust, whether or not we may otherwise indemnify such officer or director. We have purchased and maintain directors and
  officers liability insurance for such purpose. We have also entered into indemnification agreements with our directors and officers. See Item 7. Major Shareholders and Related Party TransactionsB. Related Party Transactions.
Amendment of Memorandum of Association and Bye-laws
Bermuda law provides that the memorandum of association of a company may be amended by a resolution passed at a general meeting of shareholders. Our bye-laws provide that no bye-law shall be rescinded, altered or amended, and no new bye-law shall be made, unless it shall have been
  approved by a resolution of our board of directors and by a resolution of our shareholders including the affirmative votes of at least a majority of all issued and outstanding shares.
Under Bermuda law, the holders of an aggregate of not less than 20% in par value of a companys issued share capital or any class thereof have the right to apply to the Supreme Court of Bermuda for an annulment of any amendment of the memorandum of association adopted by
91

shareholders at any general meeting, other than an amendment which alters or reduces a companys share capital as provided in the Companies Act. Where such an application is made, the amendment becomes effective only to the extent that it is confirmed by the Bermuda court. An application for an
  annulment of an amendment of the memorandum of association must be made within twenty-one days after the date on which the resolution altering the companys memorandum of association is passed and may be made on behalf of persons entitled to make the application by one or more of their
  number as they may appoint in writing for the purpose. No application may be made by shareholders voting in favor of the amendment.
Amalgamations, Mergers and Business Combinations
The amalgamation of a Bermuda company with another company or corporation (other than certain affiliated companies) requires the amalgamation agreement to be approved by the companys board of directors and by its shareholders. Unless the companys bye-laws provide otherwise, the approval
  of 75% of the shareholders voting at such meeting is required to approve the amalgamation agreement, and the quorum for such meeting must be two persons holding or representing more than one-third of the issued shares of the company. Our bye-laws provide that a merger or an amalgamation must
  only be approved by the affirmative votes of a majority of the votes attaching to all issued and outstanding shares entitling the shareholder to vote on such resolutions.
Under Bermuda law, in the event of an amalgamation or merger of a Bermuda company with another company or corporation, a shareholder of the Bermuda company who did not vote in favor of the amalgamation or merger and who is not satisfied that fair value has been offered for such
  shareholders shares may, within one month of notice of the shareholders meeting, apply to the Supreme Court of Bermuda to appraise the fair value of those shares.
Shareholder Suits
Class actions and derivative actions are generally not available to shareholders under Bermuda law. The Bermuda courts, however, would ordinarily be expected to permit a shareholder to commence an action in the name of a company to remedy a wrong to the company where the act complained of
  is alleged to be beyond the corporate power of the company or illegal, or would result in the violation of the companys memorandum of association or bye-laws. Furthermore, consideration would be given by a Bermuda court to acts that are alleged to constitute a fraud against the minority shareholders
  or, for instance, where an act requires the approval of a greater percentage of the companys shareholders than that which actually approved it.
When the affairs of a company are being conducted in a manner that is oppressive or prejudicial to the interests of some part of the shareholders, one or more shareholders may apply to the Supreme Court of Bermuda, which may make such order as it sees fit, including an order regulating the
  conduct of the companys affairs in the future or ordering the purchase of the shares of any shareholders by other shareholders or by the company.
Our bye-laws contain a provision which provides that in the event any dispute arises concerning the Companies Act or out of our bye-laws, including whether there has been a breach of the Companies Act or our bye-laws by an officer or director, any such dispute shall be subject to the exclusive
  jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of Bermuda. In addition, our bye-laws contain a provision by virtue of which our shareholders waive any claim or right of action that they have, both individually and on our behalf, against any director or officer in relation to any action or failure to take action by such
  director or officer, except in respect of any fraud or dishonesty of such director or officer.
Capitalization of Profits and Reserves
Pursuant to our bye-laws, our board of directors may (i) capitalize any part of the amount of our share premium or other reserve accounts or any amount credited to our profit and loss account or otherwise available for distribution by applying such sum in paying up unissued shares to be
92

allotted as fully paid bonus shares pro rata (except in connection with the conversion of shares) to the shareholders; or (ii) capitalize any sum standing to the credit of a reserve account or sums otherwise available for dividend or distribution by paying up in full, partly paid or nil paid shares of those
  shareholders who would have been entitled to such sums if they were distributed by way of dividend or distribution.
Calls on Shares and Forfeiture
In the event of any issuance by the Company of shares that are not fully paid, our board of directors may make such calls as it thinks fit upon the holders of such partly paid shares in respect of any amounts unpaid on such shares (and not made payable at fixed times by the terms and conditions of
  issue). If a call on partly paid shares is not paid on or before the day appointed for payment thereof, the holder of such shares may at the discretion of our board of directors be liable to pay the Company interest on the amount of such call and our board of directors may direct the secretary of the
  Company to forward such shareholder a notice in writing demanding payment. If the requirements of such notice are not complied with, any such share may at any time thereafter, until the payment of all amounts due, be forfeited by a resolution of our board of directors to that effect, and such share
  shall thereupon become the property of the Company and may be disposed of as our board of directors shall determine.
Untraced Shareholders
Our bye-laws provide that our board of directors may forfeit any dividend or other monies payable in respect of any shares that remain unclaimed for six years from the date when such monies became due for payment. In addition, we are entitled to cease sending dividend warrants and checks by
  post or otherwise to a shareholder if such instruments have been returned undelivered to, or left uncashed by, such shareholder on at least two consecutive occasions or, following one such occasion, reasonable enquires have failed to establish the shareholders new address. This entitlement ceases if the
  shareholder claims a dividend or cashes a dividend check or a warrant.
Certain Provisions of Bermuda Law
We have been designated by the Bermuda Monetary Authority as a non-resident for Bermuda exchange control purposes. This designation allows us to engage in transactions in currencies other than the Bermuda dollar, and there are no exchange control restrictions on our ability to transfer funds
  (other than funds denominated in Bermuda dollars) in and out of Bermuda or to pay dividends to U.S. residents who are holders of our common shares.
The Bermuda Monetary Authority has given its consent for the issue and free transferability of all our common shares to and between non-residents of Bermuda for exchange control purposes, provided that our shares remain listed on an appointed stock exchange, which includes the NYSE.
  Approvals or permissions given by the Bermuda Monetary Authority do not constitute a guarantee by the Bermuda Monetary Authority as to our performance or our creditworthiness. Accordingly, in giving such consent or permissions, the Bermuda Monetary Authority shall not be liable for the financial
  soundness, performance or default of our business or for the correctness of any opinions or statements expressed in this annual report. Certain issues and transfers of common shares involving persons deemed resident in Bermuda for exchange control purposes require the specific consent of the Bermuda
  Monetary Authority.
In accordance with Bermuda law, share certificates are only issued in the names of companies, partnerships or individuals. In the case of a shareholder acting in a special capacity (for example as a trustee), certificates may, at the request of the shareholder, record the capacity in which the
  shareholder is acting. Notwithstanding such recording of any special capacity, we are not bound to investigate or see to the execution of any such trust. We will take no notice of any trust applicable to any of our shares, whether or not we have been notified of such trust.

D. Exchange Controls and Other Limitations Affecting Security Holders
Under Bermuda law, there are currently no restrictions on the export or import of capital, including foreign exchange controls or restrictions that affect the remittance of dividends, interest or other payments to non-resident holders of our common shares.
We have been designated by the Bermuda Monetary Authority as a non-resident for Bermuda exchange control purposes. This designation allows us to engage in transactions in currencies other than the Bermuda dollar, and there are no exchange control restrictions on our ability to transfer funds
  (other than funds denominated in Bermuda dollars) in and out of Bermuda or to pay dividends to U.S. residents who are holders of our common shares.
Under Bermuda law, exempted companies are companies formed for the purpose of conducting business outside Bermuda from a principal place of business in Bermuda. As an exempted company, we may not, without a license or consent granted by the Minister of Finance, participate in certain
  business transactions, including transactions involving Bermuda landholding rights and the carrying on of business of any kind, for which we are not licensed in Bermuda.
E. Tax Considerations
Bermuda Tax Considerations
The following discussion represents the opinion of Conyers Dill & Pearman Limited regarding the material Bermuda tax consequences to us of our activities and, subject to the limitations described above, to you as a holder of our common shares. At the present time, there is no Bermuda income or
  profits tax, withholding tax, capital gains tax, capital transfer tax, estate duty or inheritance tax payable by us or by our shareholders in respect of our shares. We have obtained an assurance from the Minister of Finance of Bermuda under the Exempted Undertakings Tax Protection Act 1966 of Bermuda,
  as amended, that, in the event that any legislation is enacted in Bermuda imposing any tax computed on profits or income, or computed on any capital asset, gain or appreciation or any tax in the nature of estate duty or inheritance tax, such tax shall not, until March 31, 2035, be applicable to us or to
  any of our operations or to our shares, debentures or other obligations except insofar as such tax applies to persons ordinarily resident in Bermuda or is payable by us in respect of real property owned or leased by us in Bermuda. Given the limited duration of the Bermuda Minister of Finances
  assurance, we cannot assure you that we will not be subject to any Bermuda tax after March 31, 2035.
United States Federal Income Tax Considerations
The following discussion represents the opinion of Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP regarding the material U.S. Federal income tax consequences to us of our activities and, subject to the limitations described above, to you as a holder of our common shares.
The following discussion of U.S. Federal income tax matters is based on the Code, judicial decisions, administrative pronouncements, and existing and proposed regulations issued by the U.S. Department of the Treasury, all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect. This
  discussion does not address any U.S. state or local taxes. You are encouraged to consult your own tax advisor regarding the particular U.S. Federal, state and local and foreign income and other tax consequences of acquiring, owning and disposing of our common shares that may be applicable to you.
U.S. Taxation of Our Operating Income
Our subsidiaries have elected (or are in the process of electing) to be treated as disregarded entities for U.S. Federal income tax purposes. As a result, for purposes of the discussion below, our subsidiaries are treated as branches rather than as separate corporations.
95

U.S. Taxation of Shipping Income
Subject to the discussion of effectively connected income below, unless we are exempt from U.S. Federal income tax under the rules contained in Section 883 of the Code, we will be subject to U.S. Federal income tax under the rules of Section 887 of the Code, which would impose on us a 4%
  U.S. income tax in respect of our U.S. source gross transportation income (without the allowance for deductions).
For this purpose, U.S. source gross transportation income includes 50% of the shipping income that is attributable to transportation that begins or ends (but that does not both begin and end) in the United States. Shipping income attributable to transportation exclusively between non-U.S. ports is
  generally not subject to any U.S. income tax.
For this purpose, shipping income means income that is derived from:
(i)
    
    
    
    the use of ships;(ii)
    
    
    
    the hiring or leasing of ships for use on a time, operating or bareboat charter basis;(iii)
    
    
    
    the participation in a pool, partnership, strategic alliance, joint operating agreement or other joint venture we directly or indirectly own or participate in that generates such income; or(iv)
    
    
    
    the performance of services directly related to those uses.Under Section 883 of the Code and the regulations thereunder, we will be exempt from U.S. Federal income tax on our U.S. source gross transportation income if:
(i)
    
    
    
    we are organized in a foreign country (the country of organization) that grants an equivalent exemption to corporations organized in the United States; and(ii)
    
    
    
    either(a)
    
    
    
    more than 50% of the value of our shares is owned, directly or indirectly, by individuals who are residents of our country of organization or of another foreign country that grants an equivalent exemption to corporations organized in the United States (the 50% Ownership Test), or(b)
    
    
    
    our common shares are primarily and regularly traded on an established securities market in our country of organization, in another country that grants an equivalent exemption to U.S. corporations, or in the United States (the Publicly-Traded Test).Bermuda, the jurisdiction in which we are incorporated, grants an equivalent exemption to U.S. corporations. Therefore, we will be eligible for the exemption under Section 883 of the Code if we satisfy either the 50% Ownership Test or the Publicly-Traded Test. Although we have satisfied the 50%
  Ownership Test in the past, it may be difficult or impossible for us to establish that we satisfy the 50% Ownership Test because our common shares will be traded on the NYSE and will be widely held.
As to the Publicly-Traded Test, the regulations under Section 883 of the Code provide, in pertinent part, that stock of a foreign corporation will be considered to be primarily traded on an established securities market in a country if the number of shares of each class of stock that is traded during
  any taxable year on all established securities markets in that country exceeds the number of shares in each such class that is traded during that year on established securities markets in any other single country. We believe that our common shares, which are, and will continue to be, the sole class of our
  issued and outstanding stock, is, and will continue to be, primarily traded on NYSE, which is an established securities market for these purposes.
The Publicly-Traded Test also requires our common shares to be regularly traded on an established securities market. Since our common shares, listed on the NYSE, are our only class of outstanding stock, this test will be satisfied if (i) our common shares are traded on the market, other than in
  minimal quantities, on at least 60 days during the taxable year (or 1/6 of the days in a short taxable year); and (ii) the aggregate number of shares of our common shares traded on such market during the taxable year is at least 10% of the average number of shares of our common shares outstanding
  during such year (as appropriately adjusted in the case of a short taxable year). We
96

believe we satisfy, and will continue to satisfy, the trading frequency and trading volume tests. However, even if we do not satisfy both tests, these tests are deemed satisfied if our common shares are traded on an established securities market in the United States and are regularly quoted by dealers
  making a market in such shares. We believe this is and will continue to be the case.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, we will satisfy the Publicly-Traded Test only if we can establish that among the group of persons who each own, either actually or constructively under certain stock attribution rules, 5% or more of our common shares, or 5% Shareholders, there are sufficient
  qualified shareholders to demonstrate that non-qualified 5% Shareholders cannot own 50% or more of our common shares for more than half the number of days during the taxable year. In order to satisfy this requirement, a sufficient number of 5% Shareholders must verify that they are qualified
  shareholders by providing certain information to us, including information about their countries of residence for tax purposes and their actual and/or constructive ownership of our common shares. We do not currently satisfy the foregoing requirements of the Publicly Traded Test.
We are currently not entitled to this exemption under Section 883 for any taxable year. As a result, we are subject to the 4% U.S. Federal income tax under Section 887 on our U.S. source gross transportation income (subject to the discussion of effectively connected income below).
Because we are unable to qualify for the exemption under Section 883, our U.S. source gross transportation income that is considered to be effectively connected with the conduct of a U.S. trade or business is subject to the U.S. corporate income tax currently imposed at rates of up to 35% (net of
  applicable deductions). In addition, we may be subject to the 30% U.S. branch profits tax on earnings effectively connected with the conduct of such trade or business, as determined after allowance for certain adjustments, and on certain interest paid or deemed paid attributable to the conduct of our
  U.S. trade or business.
Our U.S. source gross transportation income would be considered effectively connected with the conduct of a U.S. trade or business only if:
(i)
    
    
    
    we had, or were considered to have, a fixed place of business in the United States involved in the earning of U.S. source gross transportation income; and(ii)
    
    
    
    substantially all of our U.S. source gross transportation income was attributable to regularly scheduled transportation, such as the operation of a ship that followed a published schedule with repeated sailings at regular intervals between the same points for voyages that begin or end in the United
      States.We believe that we will not meet these conditions because we will not have, or permit circumstances that would result in having, such a fixed place of business in the United States or any ship sailing to or from the United States on a regularly scheduled basis.
In addition, income attributable to transportation that both begins and ends in the United States is not subject to the tax rules described above. Such income is subject to either a 30% gross-basis tax or to U.S. corporate income tax on net income at rates of up to 35% (and the branch profits tax
  discussed above). Although there can be no assurance, we do not expect to engage in transportation that produces shipping income of this type.
Taxation of Gain on Sale of Shipping Assets
Regardless of whether we qualify for the exemption under Section 883 of the Code, we will not be subject to U.S. income taxation with respect to gain realized on a sale of a ship, provided the sale is considered to occur outside of the United States (as determined under U.S. tax principles). In
  general, a sale of a ship will be considered to occur outside of the United States for this purpose if title to the ship (and risk of loss with respect to the ship) passes to the buyer outside of the United States. We expect that any sale of a ship will be so structured that it will be considered to occur outside
  of the United States.
97

Taxation of United States Holders
You are a U.S. holder if you are a beneficial owner of our common shares and you are a U.S. citizen or resident, a U.S. corporation (or other U.S. entity taxable as a corporation), an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. Federal income taxation regardless of its source, or a trust if a court
  within the United States is able to exercise primary jurisdiction over the administration of the trust and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust.
If a partnership holds our common shares, the tax treatment of a partner will generally depend upon the status of the partner and upon the activities of the partnership. If you are a partner in a partnership holding our common shares, you should consult your tax advisor.
Distributions on Our Common Shares
Subject to the discussion of passive foreign investment companies, or PFICs, below, any distributions with respect to our common shares that you receive from us generally will constitute dividends to the extent of our current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under U.S. tax
  principles). Distributions in excess of our earnings and profits will be treated first as a nontaxable return of capital to the extent of your tax basis in our common shares (on a dollar-for-dollar basis) and thereafter as capital gain.
Because we are not a U.S. corporation, if you are a U.S. corporation (or a U.S. entity taxable as a corporation), you will not be entitled to claim a dividends-received deduction with respect to any distributions you receive from us.
Dividends paid with respect to our common shares will generally be treated as passive category income for purposes of computing allowable foreign tax credits for U.S. foreign tax credit purposes.
If you are an individual, trust or estate, dividends you receive from us should be treated as qualified dividend income taxed at a maximum preferential rate of 15% or 20%, depending on the income level of the individual, provided that:
(i)
    
    
    
    our common shares are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States (such as the NYSE);(ii)
    
    
    
    we are not a PFIC for the taxable year during which the dividend is paid or the immediately preceding taxable year (see the discussion below under PFIC Status and Significant Tax Consequences);(iii)
    
    
    
    you own our common shares for more than 60 days in the 121-day period beginning 60 days before the date on which the common shares become ex-dividend;(iv)
    
    
    
    you are not under an obligation to make related payments with respect to positions in substantially similar or related property; and(v)
    
    
    
    certain other conditions are met.Special rules may apply to any extraordinary dividend. Generally, an extraordinary dividend is a dividend in an amount that is equal to (or in excess of) 10% of your adjusted tax basis (or fair market value in certain circumstances) in a share of our common shares. If we pay an extraordinary
  dividend on our common shares that is treated as qualified dividend income and if you are an individual, estate or trust, then any loss derived by you from a subsequent sale or exchange of such common shares will be treated as long-term capital loss to the extent of such dividend.
There is no assurance that dividends you receive from us will be eligible for the preferential tax rates applicable to qualified dividend income. Dividends you receive from us that are not eligible for the preferential tax rates will be taxed at ordinary income rates.
In addition, even if we are not a PFIC, under proposed legislation, dividends of a corporation incorporated in a country without a comprehensive income tax system paid to U.S. holders who are individuals, estates or trusts would not be eligible for the 15% or 20% maximum tax rate. Although the
  term comprehensive income tax system is not defined in the proposed legislation, we believe this rule would apply to us because we are incorporated in Bermuda. As of the date hereof,
98

it is not possible to predict with certainty whether or in what form this proposed legislation will be enacted.
Sale, Exchange or Other Disposition of Common Shares
Provided that we are not a PFIC for any taxable year, you generally will recognize taxable gain or loss upon a sale, exchange or other disposition of our common shares in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized by you from such sale, exchange or other disposition and your
  tax basis in such shares. Such gain or loss will be treated as long-term capital gain or loss if your holding period is greater than one year at the time of the sale, exchange or other disposition. Such capital gain or loss will generally be treated as U.S. source income or loss, as applicable, for U.S. foreign
  tax credit purposes. Your ability to deduct capital losses against ordinary income is subject to limitations.
Unearned Income Medicare Contribution Tax
Each U.S. holder who is an individual, estate or trust is generally subject to a 3.8% Medicare tax on the lesser of (i) such U.S. holders net investment income for the relevant taxable year, and (ii) the excess of such U.S. holders modified adjusted gross income for the taxable year over a certain
  threshold (which in the case of individuals will be between $125,000 and $250,000, depending on the individuals circumstances). For this purpose, net investment income generally includes dividends on and capital gains from the sale, exchange or other disposition of our common shares, subject to certain
  exceptions. You are encouraged to consult your own tax advisor regarding the applicability of the Medicare tax to your income and gains from your ownership of our common shares.
PFIC Status and Significant Tax Consequences
In General
Special U.S. income tax rules apply to you if you hold shares in a non-U.S. corporation that is classified as a PFIC for U.S. income tax purposes. In general, under Section 1297 of the Code, we will be treated as a PFIC in any taxable year in which, after applying certain look-through rules, either:
(i)
    
    
    
    at least 75% of our gross income for such taxable year consists of passive income (e.g., dividends, interest, capital gains and rents derived other than in the active conduct of a rental business); or(ii)
    
    
    
    at least 50% of the average value of our assets during such taxable year consists of passive assets (i.e., assets that produce, or are held for the production of, passive income).Income we earn, or are deemed to earn, in connection with the performance of services will not constitute passive income. By contrast, rental income will generally constitute passive income (unless we are treated under certain special rules as deriving our rental income in the active conduct of a
  trade or business).
There are legal uncertainties involved in determining whether the income derived from time chartering activities constitutes rental income or income derived from the performance of services. In Tidewater Inc. v. United States, 565 F.2d 299 (5th Cir. 2009), the Fifth Circuit held that income derived
  from certain time chartering activities should be treated as rental income rather than services income for purposes of a provision of the Code relating to foreign sales corporations. In recently published guidance, however, the IRS stated that it disagreed with the holding in Tidewater, and specified that
  time charters should be treated as service contracts. Since we have chartered all our ships to unrelated charterers on the basis of time charters and since we expect to continue to do so, we believe that we are not a PFIC. We have received an opinion from our counsel, Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP, that
  (i) the income we receive from time chartering activities and assets engaged in generating such income should not be treated as passive income or assets, respectively, and (ii) for the taxable year during which our initial public offering occurred and each taxable year
99

thereafter, we should not be a PFIC. This opinion is based and its accuracy is conditioned on representations, valuations and projections provided by us regarding the nature of our assets, income and charters to our counsel. While we believe these representations, valuations and projections to be accurate,
  the shipping market is volatile and no assurance can be given that they will continue to be accurate. Moreover, we have not sought, and we do not expect to seek, an IRS ruling on this matter. As a result, the IRS or a court could disagree with our position. No assurance can be given that this result will
  not occur. In addition, although we intend to conduct our affairs in a manner to avoid, to the extent possible, being classified as a PFIC with respect to any taxable year, we cannot assure you that the nature of our operations will not change in the future, or that we can avoid PFIC status in the future.
If we were to be treated as a PFIC for any taxable year, you generally would be subject to one of three different U.S. Federal income tax regimes, as discussed below, depending on whether or not you make certain elections. Additionally, starting in 2013, for each year during which you own our
  common shares, we are a PFIC and the total value of all PFIC stock that you directly or indirectly own exceeds certain thresholds, you will be required to file IRS Form 8621 with your U.S. Federal income tax return to report your ownership of our common shares.
Taxation of U.S. Holders That Make a Timely QEF Election
If we were a PFIC and if you make a timely election to treat us as a Qualifying Electing Fund for U.S. tax purposes (a QEF Election), you would be required to report each year your pro rata share of our ordinary earnings and our net capital gain for our taxable year that ends with or within
  your taxable year, regardless of whether we make any distributions to you. Such income inclusions would not be eligible for the preferential tax rates applicable to qualified dividend income (as discussed above under Taxation of United States HoldersDistributions on Our Common Shares). Your
  adjusted tax basis in our common shares would be increased to reflect such taxed but undistributed earnings and profits. Distributions of earnings and profits that had previously been taxed would result in a corresponding reduction in your adjusted tax basis in our common shares and would not be taxed
  again once distributed. You generally would recognize capital gain or loss on the sale, exchange or other disposition of our common shares. Even if you make a QEF Election for one of our taxable years, if we were a PFIC for a prior taxable year during which you held our common shares and for which
  you did not make a timely QEF Election, you would also be subject to a more adverse regime described below under Taxation of U.S. Holders That Make No Election.
You would make a QEF Election by completing and filing IRS Form 8621 with your U.S. income tax return for the year for which the election is made in accordance with the relevant instructions. If we were to become aware that we were to be treated as a PFIC for any taxable year, we would
  notify all U.S. holders of such treatment and would provide all necessary information to any U.S. holder who requests such information in order to make the QEF Election described above with respect to us.
Taxation of U.S. Holders That Make a Timely Mark-to-Market Election
Alternatively, if we were to be treated as a PFIC for any taxable year and, as we believe, our common shares are treated as marketable stock, you would be allowed to make a mark-to-market election with respect to our common shares, provided you complete and file IRS Form 8621 with your
  U.S. income tax return for the year for which the election is made in accordance with the relevant instructions. If that election is made, you generally would include as ordinary income in each taxable year the excess, if any, of the fair market value of our common shares at the end of the taxable year
  over your adjusted tax basis in our common shares. You also would be permitted an ordinary loss in respect of the excess, if any, of your adjusted tax basis in our common shares over its fair market value at the end of the taxable year (but only to the extent of the net amount previously included in
  income as a result of the mark-to-market election). Your tax basis in our common shares would be adjusted to reflect any such income or loss amount. Gain realized on the sale, exchange or other disposition of our common shares would be treated as ordinary income, and
100

any loss realized on the sale, exchange or other disposition of the common shares would be treated as ordinary loss to the extent that such loss does not exceed the net mark-to-market gains previously included by you.
Taxation of U.S. Holders That Make No Election
Finally, if we were treated as a PFIC for any taxable year and if you did not make either a QEF Election or a mark-to-market election for that year, you would be subject to special rules with respect to (i) any excess distribution (that is, the portion of any distributions received by you on our
  common shares in a taxable year in excess of 125% of the average annual distributions received by you in the three preceding taxable years, or, if shorter, your holding period for our common shares) and (ii) any gain realized on the sale, exchange or other disposition of our common shares. Under these
  special rules:
(i)
    
    
    
    the excess distribution or gain would be allocated ratably over your aggregate holding period for our common shares;(ii)
    
    
    
    the amount allocated to the current taxable year would be taxed as ordinary income; and(iii)
    
    
    
    the amount allocated to each of the other taxable years would be subject to tax at the highest rate of tax in effect for the applicable class of taxpayer for that year, and an interest charge for the deemed deferral benefit would be imposed with respect to the resulting tax attributable to each such
      other taxable year.United States Federal Income Taxation of Non-U.S. Holders
You are a non-U.S. holder if you are a beneficial owner of our common shares (other than a partnership for U.S. tax purposes) and you are not a U.S. holder.
Distributions on Our Common Shares
You generally will not be subject to U.S. income or withholding taxes on a distribution received from us with respect to our common shares, unless the income arising from such distribution is effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business in the United States. If you are entitled to
  the benefits of an applicable income tax treaty with respect to that income, that income generally is taxable in the United States only if it is attributable to a permanent establishment maintained by you in the United States.
Sale, Exchange or Other Disposition of Our Common Shares
You generally will not be subject to U.S. income tax or withholding tax on any gain realized upon the sale, exchange or other disposition of our common shares, unless:
(i)
    
    
    
    the gain is effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business in the United States. If you are entitled to the benefits of an applicable income tax treaty with respect to that gain, that gain generally is taxable in the United States only if it is attributable to a permanent establishment
      maintained by you in the United States; or(ii)
    
    
    
    you are an individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more during the taxable year of disposition and certain other conditions are met.Gain that is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States (or so treated) generally will be subject to U.S. Federal income tax (net of certain deductions) at regular U.S. Federal income tax rates. If you are a corporate non-U.S. holder, your earnings and profits that
  are attributable to the effectively connected income (subject to certain adjustments) may be subject to an additional U.S. branch profits tax at a rate of 30% (or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable tax treaty).
101

United States Backup Withholding and Information Reporting
In General
In general, if you are a non-corporate U.S. holder, dividend payments (or other taxable distributions) made within the United States will be subject to information reporting requirements and backup withholding tax if you:
(i)
    
    
    
    fail to provide us with an accurate taxpayer identification number;(ii)
    
    
    
    are notified by the IRS that you have failed to report all interest or dividends required to be shown on your Federal income tax returns; or(iii)
    
    
    
    in certain circumstances, fail to comply with applicable certification requirements.If you are a non-U.S. holder, you may be required to establish your exemption from information reporting and backup withholding by certifying your status on IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8ECI or W-8IMY, as applicable.
If you sell our common shares to or through a U.S. office or broker, the payment of the sales proceeds is subject to both U.S. backup withholding and information reporting unless you certify that you are a non-U.S. person, under penalties of perjury, or you otherwise establish an exemption. If you
  sell our common shares through a non-U.S. office of a non-U.S. broker and the sales proceeds are paid to you outside the United States, then information reporting and backup withholding generally will not apply to that payment.
However, U.S. information reporting requirements (but not backup withholding) will apply to a payment of sales proceeds, even if that payment is made outside the United States, if you sell our common shares through a non-U.S. office of a broker that is a U.S. person or has certain other
  connections with the United States.
Backup withholding tax is not an additional tax. Rather, you generally may obtain a refund of any amounts withheld under backup withholding rules that exceed your income tax liability by accurately completing and timely filing a refund claim with the IRS.
Tax Return Disclosure
U.S. individuals that hold certain specified foreign financial assets (which include shares in a foreign corporation) are subject to U.S. return disclosure obligations (and related penalties for failure to disclose). Such U.S. individuals are required to file IRS Form 8938 with their U.S. Federal income tax
  returns. You are encouraged to consult your own tax advisors concerning the filing of IRS Form 8938.

H. Documents on Display
We are subject to the informational requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. In accordance with these requirements, we file reports and other information as a foreign private issuer with the SEC. You may inspect and copy our public filings without
  charge at the public reference facilities maintained by the SEC at 100 F Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20549. Please call the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330 for further information about the public reference room. You may obtain copies of all or any part of such materials from the SEC upon payment of

I. Subsidiary Information
Not applicable.
ITEM 11. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to various market risks, including interest rate and foreign currency exchange risks. The Group makes use of derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps to maintain the desired level of exposure arising from these risks.
A discussion of our accounting policies for derivative financial instruments is included in Note 2 to our audited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report. Further information on our exposure to market risk is included in Note 20 to our audited consolidated financial
  statements included elsewhere in this report.
The following analyses provide quantitative information regarding our exposure to market risks.
Interest Rate Risk
We are subject to market risks relating to changes in interest rates because we, through our subsidiaries, have floating rate debt outstanding. Significant increases in interest rates could adversely affect our operating margins, results of operations and our ability to service our debt. From time to time,
  we have used interest rate swaps to reduce our exposure to market risk from changes in interest rates. The principal objective of these contracts is to minimize the risks and costs associated with our floating rate debt and is not for speculative or trading purposes. We expect to continue to use interest rate
  swaps in the future as we deem appropriate to manage our exposure to interest rate risk.
The aggregate principal amount of our outstanding floating rate debt as of December 31, 2013 was $1.06 billion. As an indication of the extent of our sensitivity to interest rate changes, an increase in LIBOR by 10 basis points would have decreased our profit during the years ended December 31,
  2013 and 2012 by approximately 0.39% or $0.22 million and 2.82% or $0.12 million, respectively, based upon our debt level during such years.
We expect our exposure to interest rate changes to increase in the future as a result of an increase in our borrowings under our current and future loan agreements. Borrowings under these floating rate debt facilities will be used to finance a portion of the contract prices of our newbuildings on
  order.
Interest Rate Swaps
The principal terms of the interest rate swaps are disclosed in Note 21 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this annual report. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the notional amount of the swaps designated as cash flow hedging instruments was $307.43 million and $719.90
  million, respectively, and the notional amount of the swaps held for trading was $630.19 million and $143.00 million, respectively.
Under these swap transactions, the bank counterparty effects quarterly floating-rate payments to the Company for the relevant amount based on the three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR, and the Company effects quarterly payments to the bank on the relevant amount at the respective fixed rates.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
We generate all of our revenue in U.S. dollars, and the majority of our expenses, including debt repayment obligations under our credit facilities and a portion of our administrative expenses, are denominated in U.S. dollars. However, a portion of the ship operating expenses of our vessel ownership
  segment, primarily crew wages, and a large portion of our administrative expenses, are denominated in euros. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, approximately $12.99 million and $6.14 million, respectively, of our outstanding liabilities were denominated in euros.
103

Depreciation in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to the euro will increase the U.S. dollar cost of us paying expenses denominated in euros. Accordingly, there is a risk that currency fluctuations will have a negative effect on our cash flows. As an indication of the extent of our sensitivity to
  changes in exchange rate, a 10% increase in the average euro/dollar exchange rate would have decreased our profit and cash flows during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 by approximately $4.12 million and $2.65 million, respectively, based upon our expenses during such years. We do not
  currently hedge movements in currency exchange rates, but our management monitors exchange rate fluctuations on a continuous basis. We may seek to hedge this currency fluctuation risk in the future. We expect our exposure to movements in currency exchange rates to increase in the future as our
  fleet increases.
Inflation and Cost Increases
We do not expect inflation to have a significant impact on us in the current economic environment and foreseeable future, other than potentially in relation to crew costs. LNG transportation is a specialized area and the number of LNG carriers has increased rapidly in recent years. As a result, there
  has been an increased demand for qualified crews, which has and will continue to put inflationary pressure on crew costs. The impact of cost increases would be mitigated to some extent by certain provisions in our time charters, including review provisions and cost pass-through provisions.

PART II
ITEM 13. DEFAULTS, DIVIDEND ARREARAGES AND DELINQUENCIES
There has been no material default in the payment of principal, interest, sinking or purchase fund installments or any other material default relating to the Groups debt. There have been no arrears in payment of dividends on, or material delinquency with respect to, any class of preference shares of
  the Group.
ITEM 14. MATERIAL MODIFICATIONS TO THE RIGHTS OF SECURITY HOLDERS AND USE OF PROCEEDS
In May 2013, our board of directors and our shareholders approved certain amendments to our bye-laws authorizing the board of directors to designate from time to time one or more series of preference shares. The description of our bye-laws in Item 10Additional InformationB. Memorandum and
  Articles of Association reflect these amendments.
ITEM 15. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
A. Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act as of December 31, 2013.
  Based on our evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2013.
B. Managements Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act and for the assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our internal controls
  over financial reporting are designed under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles
  generally accepted in the United States of America.
Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as
  necessary to permit preparation of our financial statements in accordance with IFRS, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized
  acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of the inherent limitations of internal controls over financial reporting, misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the
  controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting using criteria issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in the Internal Control-Integrated Framework (1992 framework). Based on the
  evaluation, our management concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting are effective as of December 31, 2013.

ITEM 16.G. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Statement of Significant Differences Between Our Corporate Governance Practices and the New York Stock Exchange Corporate Governance Standards for U.S. Non-Controlled Issuers
Overview
Pursuant to certain exceptions for foreign private issuers, we are not required to comply with certain of the corporate governance practices followed by U.S. companies under the New York Stock Exchange listing standards. However, pursuant to Section 303.A.11 of the New York Stock Exchange
  Listed Company Manual and the requirements of Form 20-F, we are required to state any significant ways in which our corporate governance practices differ from the practices required by the New York Stock Exchange. We believe that our established practices in the area of corporate governance are in
  line with the spirit of the New York Stock Exchange standards and provide adequate protection to our shareholders. The significant differences between our corporate governance practices and the New York Stock Exchange standards applicable to listed U.S. companies are set forth below.
Corporate Governance, Nominating and Compensation Committee
Pursuant to NYSE Rules 303A.04 and 303A.05, the New York Stock Exchange requires that a listed U.S. company have a nominating/corporate governance committee and a compensation committee, each composed entirely of independent directors. As permitted under Bermuda law, we have one or
  more non-independent directors serving as committee members on our compensation committee and our corporate governance and nominating committee.
NYSE Rules 303A.02 and 303A.05 contain independence requirements for compensation committee directors and compensation committee advisers for U.S. listed companies, as required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010. Bermuda law does not have similar
  requirements, therefore we may not adhere to these new requirements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of GasLog Ltd.
Hamilton, Bermuda
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of GasLog Ltd. and its subsidiaries (the Group) as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of profit or loss, comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows for each of the three
  years in the period ended December 31, 2013. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Groups management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Group
  is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of
  expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Groups internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles
  used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of GasLog Ltd. and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31,
  2013, in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

    Under the agreements signed with an entity jointly-owned by the Livanos and Radziwill families (the Joint Venture Partner), the Group initially held 51% in these four vessel-owning companies. In June 2011 the Joint Venture Partner sold its 49% non-controlling interest in the issued shares of GAS-
      three Ltd., GAS-four Ltd., GAS-five Ltd. and GAS-six Ltd. to Ceres Shipping. Ceres Shipping contributed the 49% interest in the aforementioned four vessel-owning companies to Blenheim Holdings, who in turn contributed the 49% interest in these four vessel-owning companies to GasLog, which
      contributed the same to GasLog Carriers Ltd. Contribution of these four vessel-owning companies by Ceres Shipping was a non-cash transaction for the Group. Following the completion of this transaction, GAS-three Ltd., GAS-four Ltd., GAS-five Ltd. and GAS-six Ltd. are 100% owned by the
      Group.All entities in the Group have a December 31styear end. During 2013 the Group employed an average of 119 employees (2012: 110 and 2011: 63).
On July 11, 2011 and September 5, 2011, the Group transferred its ownership of two dormant subsidiaries, GasLog Holdings Limited and GasLog Services Limited, respectively, to Ceres Shipping (a related company). The Group transferred all outstanding shares of each of the dormant entities to
  Ceres Shipping in non-cash transactions for no consideration. Aggregate cash and net liabilities of the two entities of $56,426 and $81,212, respectively, were transferred to Ceres Shipping in the transactions, resulting in a gain of $24,786, which is recorded in the consolidated statement of profit or loss.
On March 29, 2012, the Group entered into (i) an underwriting agreement with a group of underwriters to sell 23,500,000 shares of the Groups common shares at a public offering price of $14.00 per share, for an aggregate public offering price of $329,000,000, (ii) subscription agreements with certain
  of the Groups directors and officers for a concurrent private placement of 261,670 shares of the Groups common shares at the public offering price of $14.00 per share.
The Group completed its IPO and concurrent private placement on April 4, 2012, at which time the Group issued 23,761,670 common shares. The net proceeds from the IPO and concurrent private placement, including the underwriting discount of $18,095,000 and offering costs of $4,915,223, was
  $309,653,157.
GasLogs common shares began trading on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) on March 30, 2012 under the ticker symbol GLOG.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
Statement of compliance
The consolidated financial statements of GasLog and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (the IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (the IASB).
Basis of preparation and approval
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for derivative financial instruments recorded at fair value at the end of each year. Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services.
The principal accounting policies are set out below.
The financial statements are expressed in U.S. dollars (USD), which is the functional currency of the Groups subsidiaries.
On February 27, 2014, the financial statements were authorized on behalf of GasLogs board of directors for issuance and filing.
Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of GasLog and entities controlled by the company (its subsidiaries). Control is achieved where GasLog:

    
    
    
    has power over the investee;F-10


    
    
    
    is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and
    
    
    
    has the ability to use its power to affect its returns.Income and expenses of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date control is obtained and up to the date control ceases. Acquisitions of businesses, including entities under common control, are accounted for using the
  acquisition method.
All intra-group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated in full on consolidation.
The other investors in subsidiaries in which the Group has less than 100% interest hold a non-controlling interest in the net assets of these subsidiaries. Non-controlling interest is stated at the non-controlling interests proportion of the net assets of the subsidiaries where the Group has less than
  100% interest. Subsequent to initial recognition the carrying amount of non-controlling interest is increased or decreased by the non-controlling interests share of subsequent changes in the equity of such subsidiaries. Total comprehensive income is attributed to a non-controlling interest even if this results
  in the non-controlling interest having a deficit balance.
Changes in the Groups ownership interests in subsidiaries that do not result in the Group losing control over the subsidiaries are accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying amounts of the Groups interests and the non-controlling interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative
  interests in the subsidiaries. Any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognized directly in equity and attributed to owners of the Group.
Goodwill
Goodwill arising in a business combination is recognized as an asset at the date that control is acquired (the acquisition date). Goodwill is measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree, and the fair value of the
  acquirers previously held equity interest in the acquiree (if any) over the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. If, after reassessment, the Groups interest in the fair value of the acquirees identifiable net assets exceeds the sum of the
  consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree and the fair value of the acquirers previously held equity interest in the acquiree (if any), the excess is recognized immediately in profit or loss as a bargain purchase gain.
Goodwill is not amortized but is reviewed for impairment at least annually. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to each of the Groups cash-generating units expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. Cash-generating units to which goodwill has been allocated
  are tested for impairment annually, or more frequently when there is an indication that the unit may be impaired. If the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit
  and then to the other assets of the unit pro-rata on the basis of the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. An impairment loss recognized for goodwill is not reversed in a subsequent period.
On disposal of a subsidiary, the attributable amount of goodwill is included in the determination of the profit or loss on disposal.
Investment in associates
An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence and that is neither a subsidiary nor an interest in a joint venture. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control over those policies.
The results, assets and liabilities of associates are included in these financial statements using the equity method of accounting, except when the investment is classified as held for sale, in which case it is accounted for under IFRS 5Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations.
F-11

An impairment assessment of investments in associates is performed when there is an indication that the asset has been impaired or the impairment losses recognized in prior years no longer exist.
When the Groups share of losses exceeds the carrying amount of the investment, the investment is reported at nil value and recognition of losses is discontinued except to the extent of the Groups commitment.
Accounting for revenues and related operating expenses
The Groups revenues comprise revenues from time charters for the charter hire of its vessels, management fees, project supervision income and other income earned during the period in accordance with existing contracts.
Revenue from vessel management and vessel construction project supervision contracts is recognized when earned and when it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the Group and such a benefit can be measured reliably.
A time charter represents a contract entered into for the use of a vessel for a specific period of time and a specified daily charter hire rate. Time charter revenue is recognized as earned on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant time charter starting from the vessels delivery to the
  charterer, except for the off-hire period, when a charter agreement exists, the vessel is made available and services are provided to the charterer and collection of the related revenue is reasonably assured. Unearned revenue includes revenue received prior to the balance sheet date relating to services to
  be rendered after the balance sheet date. Accrued revenue represents income recognized in advance as a result of the straight-line revenue recognition in respect of charter agreements that provide for varying charter rates.
Time charter hires received in advance are classified as liabilities until such time as the criteria for recognizing the revenue as earned are met (Note 13).Associated voyage expenses primarily consist of commissions and bunkers consumed during vessels unemployment, which are recognized on a pro-
  rata basis over the duration of the period of the time charter. All other voyage expenses and operating costs are expensed as incurred.
Financial income and costs
Interest income is recognized on an accruals basis. Dividend income is recognized when the right to receive payment is established.
Interest expense and other borrowing costs are recognized on an accrual basis. Interest expense and other borrowing costs incurred during the vessel construction period, and relating directly to the vessel, are capitalized as part of the cost of the vessel.
Foreign currencies
For the purpose of the consolidated financial statements, the results and financial position of each Group entity are expressed in USD, which is the functional currency of the Group and the presentation currency for the consolidated financial statements, because the Groups vessels operate in
  international shipping markets, in which revenues and expenses are primarily settled in USD, vessel management and vessel construction supervision contracts are primarily settled in USD and the Groups most significant assets and liabilities are paid for and settled in USD.
Transactions in currencies other than the USD are recognized at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At the end of each reporting period, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in other currencies are retranslated into USD at the rates prevailing at that date. All
  resulting exchange differences are recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss in the period in which they arise.
Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs, including interest expense and amortization of loan issuance costs, directly attributable to a loan to finance a vessel under construction, representing an asset that takes a
F-12

substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale, are added to the cost of the vessel, until such time as the vessel is substantially ready for its intended use or sale.
Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalization. All other borrowing costs are expensed as incurred.
Deferred financing costs for undrawn facilities
Commitment, arrangement, structuring, legal and agency fees incurred for obtaining new loans or refinancing existing facilities are recorded as deferred loan issuance costs and classified contra to debt while the fees incurred for the undrawn facility are classified under non-current assets in the
  statement of financial position and will be classified contra to debt on the drawdown dates.
Deferred financing costs are deferred and amortized to financial costs over the term of the relevant loan, using the effective interest method.
Vessels under construction
Newbuilding vessels are presented at cost less identified impairment losses, if any. Costs relating to the newbuilding vessels include shipyard installment payments and other vessel costs incurred during the construction period that are directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of the vessels,
  including borrowing costs incurred during the construction period.
Upon completion of the construction, the vessels are presented on the statement of financial position in accordance with the Tangible fixed assets: Property, plant and equipment policy as described below.
Tangible fixed assets: Property, plant and equipment
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment loss. The initial cost of an asset comprises its purchase price and any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to its working condition.
The cost of a LNG vessel is split into two components, a vessel component and a drydocking component. Depreciation for the vessel component is calculated on a straight-line basis, after taking into account the estimated residual values, over the estimated useful life of this major component of
  the vessels. Residual value is estimated as 10% of the initial vessel cost and represents the Groups estimate of the current selling price assuming the vessel is already of age and condition expected at the end of its useful life.
The LNG vessels are required to undergo a drydocking overhaul every five years to restore their service potential and to meet their classification requirements. The drydocking component is estimated at the time of a new vessels delivery from the shipyard and is measured based on the estimated
  cost of the first drydocking based on the Groups historical experience with similar types of vessels. For subsequent drydockings actual costs are capitalized when incurred. The drydocking component is depreciated over the period of five years until the next drydocking.
The expected useful lives of all long-lived assets are as follows:
Vessel LNG vessel component
    
    35 years Drydocking component
    
    5 yearsFurniture, computer, software and other office equipment
    
    3-5 yearsLeasehold improvements
    
    12 years (or remaining term of the lease)The useful lives of all assets and the depreciation method are reviewed annually to ensure that the method and period of depreciation are consistent with the expected pattern of economic benefits from items of property, plant and equipment. The residual value is also reviewed at each financial
  period-end. If expectations differ from previous estimates, the changes are accounted for prospectively in earnings in the period of the change and future periods.
F-13

Ordinary maintenance and repairs that do not extend the useful life of the asset are expensed as incurred. Major renovation costs and modifications are capitalized and depreciated over the estimated remaining useful life.
When assets are sold, they are derecognized and any gain or loss resulting from their disposals is included in earnings.
Impairment of tangible fixed assets
All assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Whenever the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognized in the consolidated statement of
  profit or loss. The recoverable amount is the higher of an assets net selling price and value in use. The net selling price is the amount obtainable from the sale of an asset in an arms length transaction less the costs of disposal, while value in use is the present value of estimated future cash flows
  expected to arise from the continuing use of an asset and from its disposal at the end of its useful life. Recoverable amounts are estimated for individual assets or, if it is not possible, for the cash-generating unit. Each vessel is considered to be a single cash-generating unit. The net selling price of the
  vessels is estimated from market-based evidence by appraisal that is normally undertaken by professionally qualified brokers.
Provisions
Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that the Group will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The amount recognized as a provision is
  the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Where a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is
  the present value of those cash flows. When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, a receivable is recognized as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of the receivable can be
  measured reliably.
Inventories
Inventories represent lubricants and provisions on board the vessel and in the event of vessels unemployment the bunkers on board the vessel. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost calculated on a first in, first out basis, and net realizable value.
Financial instruments
Financial assets and liabilities are recognized when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. All financial instruments are initially measured at fair value. Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when a Group entity becomes a party to the contractual
  provisions of the instruments. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or
  financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition.

    
    
    
    Cash and cash equivalentsCash represents cash on hand and deposits with banks which are repayable on demand. Cash equivalents represent short-term, highly liquid investments which are readily convertible into known amounts of cash with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase that are subject to
  an insignificant risk of change in value.

    
    
    
    Short-term investmentsShort-term investments represent short-term, highly liquid time deposits placed with financial institutions which are readily convertible into known amount of cash with original maturities of
F-14

more than three months but less than 12 months at the time of purchase that are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.

    
    
    
    Trade receivablesTrade receivables are carried at the amount expected to be received from the third party to settle the obligation. Bad debts are written off during the year in which they are identified. An estimate is made for doubtful receivables based on a review of all outstanding amounts at year end.

    
    
    
    BorrowingsBorrowings are measured at amortized cost, using the effective interest method. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the settlement of the borrowings is recognized over the term of the borrowings.

    
    
    
    Derivative financial instrumentsThe Group enters into a variety of derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to interest rate and foreign exchange rate risks, including, interest rate swaps and cross currency swaps.
Derivative financial instruments are initially recognized at fair value, and are subsequently remeasured to their fair value at each reporting date. The resulting gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss immediately unless the derivative is designated and effective as a hedging instrument, in which
  event the timing of the recognition in profit or loss depends on the nature of the hedge relationship. Derivatives are presented as assets when their valuation is favorable to the Group and as liabilities when unfavorable to the Group.
The Groups criteria for classifying a derivative instrument as a hedge include: (1) the hedge transaction is expected to be highly effective in achieving offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows attributable to the hedged risk; (2) the effectiveness of the hedge can be reliably measured; (3) there is
  adequate documentation of the hedging relationships at the inception of the hedge; and (4) for cash flow hedges, the forecasted transaction that is subject to the hedges must be highly probable.
The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is recognized in other comprehensive income. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognized immediately in profit or loss. Amounts previously recognized in other
  comprehensive income and accumulated in equity are reclassified to profit or loss in the periods when the hedged item affects profit or loss, in the same line item as the recognized hedged item. Hedge accounting is discontinued when the Group revokes the hedging relationship, when the hedging
  instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, or when it no longer qualifies for hedge accounting. Any gain or loss accumulated in equity at that time remains in equity and is recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss when the forecast transaction occurs. When a forecast
  transaction is no longer expected to occur, the gain or loss accumulated in equity is recognized immediately in the statement of profit or loss.
Share-based payment arrangements
Equity-settled share-based payments to employees and others providing similar services are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments on the grant date. Details regarding the determination of the fair value of equity-settled share-based transactions are set out in Note 18.
The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity-settled share-based payments is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the Groups estimate of equity instruments that will eventually vest, with a corresponding increase in equity. At the end of each reporting
  period, the Group revises its estimate of the number of equity instruments expected to vest. The impact of the revision of the original estimates, if any, is recognized in the consolidated statement of income such that the cumulative expense reflects the revised estimate, with a corresponding adjustment to
  the equity-settled employee benefits reserve.
F-15

Critical accounting judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
  amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. The Groups management evaluates whether estimates should be made on an ongoing basis, utilizing historical experience, consultation with experts and other methods the management considers reasonable in the particular circumstances.
  However, uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that could require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of the asset or liability in the future.
Judgments: In the process of applying GasLogs accounting policies, management has made the following judgments, apart from those involving estimations, that had the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements.
Vessel construction cost capitalization: The Group recognized installments paid to the shipyard in accordance with the contract and any directly attributable costs of bringing the vessels to their working condition incurred during construction period as vessel costs (Note 5). Directly attributable costs
  incurred during vessel construction period consisted of commissions, on-site supervision costs, costs for sea trials, certain spare parts and equipment, lubricants and other vessel delivery expenses. Any vendor discounts were deducted from the cost of the vessels.
The key sources of estimation uncertainty are as follows:
Vessel lives and residual value: Vessels are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. The estimates and assumptions that have the most significant effect on the vessel carrying amount relate to the estimation of the useful life of an LNG vessel of 35 years and the residual value which is estimated
  as 10% of the initial vessel cost (Note 5).
An increase in the estimated useful life of a vessel or in its residual value would have the effect of decreasing the annual depreciation charge and an increase in the estimated useful life of a vessel would also extend annual depreciation charge into later periods. A decrease in the useful life of a
  vessel or its residual value would have the effect of increasing the annual depreciation charge and potentially resulting in an impairment loss.
When regulations place significant limitations over the ability of a vessel to trade on a worldwide basis, the vessels useful life is adjusted to end at the date such regulations become effective. The estimated residual value of a vessel may not represent the fair market value at any one time as in part
  market prices of scrap rates tend to fluctuate.
Impairment of Vessels: The Group evaluates the carrying amounts of its vessels to determine whether there is any indication that those vessels have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of vessels is estimated in order to determine the extent of the
  impairment loss, if any.
Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to
  the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted. The projection of cash flows related to vessels is complex and requires management to make various estimates including future freight rates, earnings from the vessels and discount rates. All of these items have been historically
  volatile. In assessing the fair value less cost to sell of the vessel, the Group obtains vessel valuations from leading, independent and internationally recognized ship brokers on an annual basis or when there is an indication that an asset or assets may be impaired. If an indication of impairment is identified,
  the need for recognizing an impairment loss is assessed by comparing the carrying amount of the vessels to the higher of the fair value less cost to sell and the value in use. No impairment loss was recognized for any of the periods presented.
Deferred drydocking cost: The Group recognizes drydocking costs as a separate component of the vessels carrying amount and amortizes the drydocking cost on a straight-line basis over the
F-16

estimated period until the next drydocking. If the vessel is disposed of before the next drydocking, the remaining balance of the deferred drydock is written-off and forms part of the gain or loss recognized upon disposal of vessels in the period when contracted. The Group expects that its vessels will be
  required to be drydocked in approximately 60 months after their delivery from the shipyard, and thereafter every 30 or 60 months will be required to undergo special or intermediate surveys and drydocked for major repairs and maintenance that cannot be performed while the vessels are operating. The
  Group amortizes its estimated drydocking expenses for the first special survey over five years, but this estimate might be revised in the future. Management estimates costs capitalized as part of the drydocking component as costs to be incurred during the first drydocking at the drydock yard for a special
  survey and parts and supplies used in making such repairs that meet the recognition criteria, based on historical experience with similar types of vessels.
Measurement of equity-settled share-based payments expense: As described in Note 18, the Group used an accepted valuation methodology to value the Stock Appreciation Rights granted in 2013. The inputs are based on observable market data and managements estimates. Details of the valuation
  methodology and significant assumptions used are set out in Note 18.
Impairment of goodwill: Determining whether goodwill is impaired requires an estimation of the recoverable amount, which is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use, of the cash-generating units to which goodwill has been allocated. The value in use calculation requires the Group
  to estimate the future cash flows expected to arise from the cash-generating unit and a suitable discount rate in order to calculate present value. Details of the impairment analysis are set out in Note 3. No impairment loss was recognized for any of the periods presented.
Fair value of derivative financial instruments: Our risk management policies permit the use of derivative financial instruments to manage interest rate risk and foreign exchange risk. Changes in fair value of derivative financial instruments that are not designated as cash flow hedges for accounting
  purposes are recognized in earnings.
A substantial majority of the fair value of our derivative instruments and the change in fair value of our derivative instruments from period to period result from our use of interest rate swap agreements. The fair value of our interest rate swap agreements is the estimated amount that we would
  receive or pay to terminate the agreements at the reporting date, taking into account current interest rates and the current credit worthiness of both us and the swap counterparties. The estimated amount is the present value of estimated future cash flows, being equal to the difference between the
  benchmark interest rate and the fixed rate in the interest rate swap agreement, multiplied by the notional principal amount of the interest rate swap agreement at each interest reset date.
The fair value of our interest and currency swap agreements at the end of each period are most significantly affected by the interest rate implied by market-observable data such as LIBOR yield curve, and forward foreign exchange rates. While the fair value of our interest and currency swap
  agreements are typically more sensitive to changes in short-term rates, significant changes in the long-term benchmark interest and foreign exchange rates also materially impact our interest and currency swap agreements.
The fair value of our interest and currency swap agreements are also affected by changes in our specific credit risk included in the discount factor. Following the implementation of IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement in January 1, 2013, the Group adjusts its derivative liabilities fair value to reflect its
  own credit risk and the counterparties risk. The estimate of the Groups credit risk is based on the credit rating of other companies in the LNG industry where publicly available, the rating of the global transportation industry where the shipping industry is included and the feedback that the Group
  receives from its lenders as part of the margin setting for the new loan agreements. The counterparties credit risk is estimated either by using the credit default swap rates obtained from public information or, if not available, by using the credit rating of the counterparties.
The LIBOR yield curve and our specific credit risk are expected to vary over the life of the interest rate swap agreements. The larger the notional amount of the interest rate swap agreements outstanding and the longer the remaining duration of the interest rate swap agreements, the larger the
  impact of any variability in these factors will be on the fair value of our interest rate swaps. We
F-17

economically hedge the interest rate exposure on a significant amount of our long-term debt and for long durations. As such, we have historically experienced, and we expect to continue to experience, material variations in the period-to-period fair value of our derivative instruments.
Although we measure the fair value of our derivative instruments utilizing the inputs and assumptions described above, if we were to terminate the agreements at the reporting date, the amount we would pay or receive to terminate the derivative instruments may differ from our estimate of fair
  value. If the estimated fair value differs from the actual termination amount, an adjustment to the carrying amount of the applicable derivative asset or liability would be recognized in earnings for the current period. Such adjustments could be material. See Note 21 for the effects on the change in fair
  value of our derivative instruments on our consolidated statements of profit or loss.
Adoption of new and revised IFRS
(a) Standards and interpretations adopted in the current period
The following standards and amendments relevant to the Group were effective in the current period:
In May 2011, the IASB issued IFRS 13Fair Value Measurement which establishes a single source of guidance for fair value measurements under IFRS standards. IFRS 13 defines fair value, provides guidance on its determination and introduces consistent requirements for disclosures on fair value
  measurements. Following the adoption of this standard, the Group adjusted its derivative liabilities fair values to reflect its credit risk. The fair value as determined by the forecasted expected cash flows discounted with the risk-free interest rate was further adjusted to incorporate the Groups own credit
  risk and the credit risk of the counterparties. The Groups own credit risk is estimated by taking into account the credit rating of other companies in the LNG Industry where publicly available, the rating of the global transportation industry where the shipping industry is included and the feedback that
  the Group received from its lenders as part of the margin setting for the new loan agreements. For counterparties credit risk, either the credit default swap rates were obtained from public information or, if not available, the credit rating of the counterparties was used. The new standard is effective for
  fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2013. As of December 31, 2013, due to the fact that the Groups rating was lower than the rating of its counterparties, the adoption of IFRS 13 has resulted in the Groups Derivative financial instruments liabilities being decreased by $77,112, Other
  comprehensive income being increased by $622,775 and the Gain on swaps being decreased by $545,663.
In May 2011, the IASB issued standards relating to consolidated financial statements, including IFRS 10Consolidated Financial Statements, IFRS 11Joint Arrangements, IFRS 12Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities, and amendments to IAS 27Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements, and
  IAS 28Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures. These standards and amendments, among other things, update the definition of control under IFRS and consolidate the disclosure requirements for interests in other entities and were effective for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2013, with
  retrospective application required. These standards and amendments did not have any impact on the Groups financial results and position.
In June 2011, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 19Employee Benefits that change the accounting for defined benefit plans and termination benefits. Following the adoption of these changes, the Group recognizes changes in defined benefit obligations when they occur, thus eliminating the
  corridor approach permitted under the previous version of IAS 19 which the Group previously applied. The amendments require all actuarial gains and losses to be recognized immediately through other comprehensive income. The revised standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after
  January 1, 2013. The amendments of IAS 19 have been applied retrospectively. The change in accounting policy resulted in unrecognized actuarial gains of $80,072 as of December 31, 2011 being recognized. As of December 31, 2012, the change in this accounting policy has resulted in the Groups
  reserves being increased by $31,668, Other non-current liabilities being decreased by $61,082 and the General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2012 being decreased by $29,414. As of December 31, 2013, the change in accounting
F-18

policy has resulted in the Groups opening reserves being increased by $31,668, the Other non-current liabilities being decreased by $63,861, the Retained Earnings being increased by $29,414 and the General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2013 being increased by $2,779.
In June 2011, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 1Presentation of Financial Statements, which provides guidance on the presentation of items contained in other comprehensive income and their classification within other comprehensive income. The amendments to IAS 1 introduce new terminology
  for the statement of comprehensive income and income statement. Under the amendments to IAS 1 that are effective for the annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2012, the income statement was renamed as statement of profit or loss. In addition, the amendments to IAS 1 require additional
  disclosures to be made in the other comprehensive income section such that items of other comprehensive income are grouped into two categories: (a) items that will not be reclassified subsequently to profit or loss; and (b) items that will be reclassified subsequently to profit or loss when specific
  conditions are met. The presentation of items of other comprehensive income has been modified accordingly. Other than the above mentioned presentation changes which were applied retrospectively, the application of the amendments to IAS 1 does not result in any impact on profit or loss, other
  comprehensive income and total comprehensive income.
In December 2011, the IASB issued amendments to IFRS 7Financial Instruments: Disclosures, which introduces disclosure requirements about rights of offset and related arrangements for financial instruments under an enforceable master netting agreement or similar arrangements, even if they are
  not set off under IAS 32Financial Instruments: Presentation. The amendments of IFRS 7 that are effective for the fiscal year beginning on January 1, 2013 did not have any impact on the Groups consolidated financial statements.
In May 2012, the IASB issued theAnnual Improvements to IFRSs-2009-2011 Cycle, which contains amendments to its standards and the related Basis for Conclusions. It includes changes to IFRS 1First Time Adoption of International Reporting Standards, IAS 1Presentation of Financial Statements,
  IAS 16Property Plant and Equipment, IAS 32Financial Instruments: Presentation and IAS 34Interim Financial Reporting. These amendments that are effective for the fiscal year beginning on January 1, 2013 did not have any impact on the Groups consolidated financial statements.
(b) Standards and amendments in issue not yet adopted
At the date of authorization of these financial statements, the following standards and amendments relevant to the Group were in issue but not yet effective:
In October 2010, the IASB reissued IFRS 9Financial Instruments. IFRS 9 specifies how an entity should classify and measure financial assets and financial liabilities. The new standard requires all financial assets to be subsequently measured at amortized cost or fair value depending on the business
  model of the legal entity in relation to the management of the financial assets and the contractual cash flows of the financial assets. The standard also requires a financial liability to be classified as either at fair value through profit or loss or at amortized cost. The release of IFRS 9 (2013) on November
  19, 2013 contained consequential amendments which removed the mandatory effective date of IFRS 9 leaving the effective date open pending the finalization of the impairment and classification and measurement requirement and permitted an entity to apply the requirements on the presentation of gains
  and losses on financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss without applying the other requirements, meaning the portion of the change in fair value related to changes in the entitys own credit risk can be presented in other comprehensive income rather than within profit or loss. In
  addition it introduced a new chapter to IFRS 9 on hedge accounting, putting in place a new hedge accounting model that is designed to be more closely aligned with how entities undertake risk management activities when hedging financial and non-financial risk exposures. At its November 2013 meeting,
  the IASB tentatively decided that the mandatory effective date will be no earlier than annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2017, with retrospective application required. Management will evaluate the impact of this standard on the Groups financial statements once the mandatory effective date
  is set. Until such time as a
F-19

detailed review has been completed it is not practicable to provide reasonable estimate of that effect.
In December 2011, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 32Financial Instruments: Presentation, which clarifies some of the requirements for offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities on the statement of financial position. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1,
  2014, with retrospective application required. Management anticipates that the implementation of this standard will not have a material impact on the financial statements as it relates to additional disclosures.
In May 2013, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 36Impairment of Assets on the impairment of non-financial assets. This amendment removes the requirement of disclosure of the recoverable amount of an asset or cash generating unit when there is no impairment loss and requires disclosure of
  how the fair value less costs of disposal has been measured when an impairment loss has been recognized or reversed during the period. The amended standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2014, with retrospective application required. Management anticipates that the
  implementation of this standard will not have a material impact on the financial statements.
In June 2013, the IASB published a limited scope amendment to IAS 39Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement and the forth coming chapter on hedge accounting in IFRS 9Financial Instruments. This amendment provides some relief from the requirement to cease hedge accounting
  when a derivative is required to be novated to a central counterparty or entity acting in a similar capacity, under certain circumstances. The amended standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2014, with retrospective application required. Management anticipates that the
  implementation of this standard will not have a material impact on the Groups financial statements.
In November 2013, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 19 Employee Benefits to clarify the requirements that relate to how contributions from employees or third parties that are linked to service should be attributed to periods of service. In addition, it permits a practical expedient if the amount of
  the contributions is independent of the number of years of service, in that contributions, can, but are not required, to be recognized as a reduction in the service cost in the period in which the related service is rendered. The amended standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 1,
  2014. Management anticipates that this amendment will not have a material impact on the Groups financial statements.
In December 2013, the IASB issued theAnnual Improvements to IFRSs-2010-2012 Cycle, which includes changes to IFRS 2 Share-based Payment, IFRS 3 Business Combination, IFRS 8 Operating Segments, IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement, IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment, IAS 38 Intangible
  Assets and IAS 24 Related Party Disclosures. These amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2014. Management anticipates that these amendments will not have a material impact on the Groups financial statements.
In December 2013, the IASB issued theAnnual Improvements to IFRSs-2011-2013 Cycle, which includes changes to IFRS 1 First-time Adoption of International Financial Standards, IFRS 3 Business Combinations, IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurementand IAS 40Investment Property.These amendments
  are effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2014. Management anticipates that these amendments will not have any impact on the Groups financial statements.
3. Goodwill
Goodwill resulted from the acquisition in 2005 of Ceres LNG Services Ltd., the vessel management company, which represents a cash-generating unit. On September 30, 2011, Ceres LNG Services Ltd. was renamed GasLog LNG Services Ltd. As of December 31, 2013, the Group assessed the
  recoverable amount of goodwill, and concluded that goodwill associated with the Groups vessel management company was not impaired. The recoverable amount of the vessel management operations is determined based on a value-in-use calculation which uses cash flow to be
F-20

generated based on financial budgets approved by management covering a four year period until 2017 and terminal multiple of 8.
Growth is based on the number of vessels expected to be under management based on the shipbuilding contracts in place at the end of the year. Management believes that any reasonably possible further change in the key assumptions on which recoverable amount is based would not cause the
  carrying amount of the cash-generating unit to exceed its recoverable amount.
The key assumptions used in the value-in-use calculations are as follows:
(i)
    
    
    
    Average inflation of 2% per annum;(ii)
    
    
    
    A discount rate of 8% per annum;(iii)
    
    
    
    Annual growth rate of nil; and(iv)

    One of the Groups subsidiaries, GasLog LNG Services Ltd. provides vessel management services to Egypt LNG Shipping Ltd., the LNG vessel owning company, in which another subsidiary, GasLog Shipping Company Ltd., holds a 25% ownership interest.(b)
    
    
    
    The Group received consulting fees from Ceres Marine Partners Ltd., a company under common control with the Group, in respect of services provided to Ceres Marine Partners by members of GasLogs management team. This agreement was terminated in September 30, 2011.(c)
    
    
    
    Through the subsidiary GasLog LNG Services Ltd., the Group leases office space in Piraeus, Greece, from an entity controlled by Ceres Shipping, Nea Dimitra Ktimatikh Kai Emporikh S.A. The lease agreement is filed with the Greek authorities. In addition, until March 2012, the Group reimbursed Nea Dimitra for part of the costs of the buildings internet line. Since April

In connection with the office space arrangements, the subsidiary GasLog Monaco S.A.M. has entered into a
      service level agreement with Ceres Monaco S.A.M. The service level agreement was terminated in April 2012 when GasLog Monaco S.A.M. signed a rent agreement directly with the thirdF-30

party property owner. The amount changed in the year ended December 31, 2013 relates to reimbursement of some expenses paid by Ceres Monaco S.A.M. on behalf of the GasLog Monaco S.A.M.(e)
    
    
    
    GasLog LNG Services has also entered into an agreement with Seres S.A., an entity controlled by the Livanos family, for the latter to provide catering services to the staff based in the Piraeus office.

      owned vessel per annum and $3,000 per managed vessel per annum.(g)
    
    
    
    In May 2009, Ceres Shipping provided a promissory letter to GasLog LNG Services Ltd., relating to the funding of an employee incentive program established for key employees of GasLog LNG Services Ltd. Pursuant to the promissory letter, Ceres Shipping undertakes the responsibility to contribute to GasLog LNG Services Ltd. an amount equal to 2.8% of all dividends
      declared by GasLog. These contributions from Ceres Shipping are in turn distributable to key employees of GasLog LNG Services Ltd. through its wholly owned subsidiary, Ceres LNG Services Employee Incentive Scheme Ltd. This promissory letter was effective until August 31, 2012. The contribution by Ceres Shipping for the year ended December 31, 2011 was $238,000
      and has been recorded as a non-cash capital contribution by owners of the Group and a charge to General and administrative expense.(h)

    5,445,773Peter G. Livanos, served as our chief executive officer for the period January 7, 2012 until January 8, 2013 and received a nominal salary of one euro.
In July 2011, GasLogs board of directors approved the award of a special bonus of $3,800,000 in the aggregate to certain key members of management for their achievements in the successful negotiation of commercial terms and conditions with the shipyard for the construction of two of the Groups
  newbuilding vessels (the GasLog Shanghai and the GasLog Santiago). The special bonus is directly related to the services provided by these key members of management during the vessel construction contract negotiations phase and is not related to any other services provided to the Group by these key
  members of management. The special bonus therefore represents an employee benefit directly attributable to the construction of the vessels and it is included in Vessels. A portion of the special bonus was accelerated and paid in January 2012, in connection with the resignation of GasLogs former chief
  executive officer. A total amount of $1,672,000 was paid during the year ended December 31, 2013 (2012: $1,843,000). As of December 31, 2013, there are no outstanding obligations in respect of the special bonus (2012: $1,672,000).

18. Share-Based Payments
Pre IPO Incentive Plan
On January 1, 2010, GasLog granted its manager and subsidiary manager shares to its key management personnel, including executives and senior employees (the Beneficiaries) of GasLog (2,541,602 manager shares) and GasLog LNG Services Ltd. (859,894 subsidiary manager shares) in order for
  the Beneficiaries to have a strong incentive to perform their responsibilities under their respective contracts of employment. In accordance with the terms of the grant, the Beneficiaries had full voting, participation in earnings and dividend rights, but they could not sell, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose
  of in whole or in part, any of the legal title or beneficial ownership of the shares issued to the Beneficiary or his nominee, until the completion of the IPO.
On August 25, 2011, 391,510 manager shares of GasLog were converted into common A shares and were transferred to a third party. This transaction resulted in an accelerated vesting for these shares. As a result of the accelerated vesting, the Group recognized $412,018 of additional compensation in
  the year ended December 31, 2011. In January 2012 the former chief executive officer of GasLog, Jeppe Jensen, resigned from his executive position and his position on the board of directors. In connection with his resignation, GasLog entered into a separation agreement with Mr. Jensen pursuant to
  which the 801,346 manager shares held by Mr. Jensen were immediately converted to common shares and were purchased by Blenheim Holdings Ltd. Immediately prior to the completion of the IPO on April 4, 2012, all outstanding manager shares and subsidiary manager shares vested immediately and
  were converted into common shares.
Both conversions resulted in the accelerated recognition of $1,794,656 of compensation expense, which was charged to earnings in 2012.
Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan
On May 17, 2013, GasLog granted to executives, managers and certain employees of GasLog and GasLog LNG Services Ltd., Restricted Stock Units (RSU) and Stock Appreciation Rights (SAR) in accordance with its 2013 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan (the Plan). The RSUs will vest
  on April 29, 2016 while the SARs will vest incrementally with one-third of the SARs vesting on each of April 29, 2014, 2015 and 2016. The compensation cost for the SARs is recognized on an accelerated basis as though each separately vesting portion of the SARs is a separate award. Prior to the
  exercise date the holders will not have any voting rights and will not be entitled to dividends or other distributions.
The grant date was determined to be May 17, 2013, being the date the Group provided each concerned employee with the relevant agreements, which include information about the grant date, vesting and exercise periods, number of RSUs and SARs awarded, the exercise price in the case of SARs,
  and other information and which were signed by the employee as evidence of acceptance.
In accordance with the terms of the Plan, there are only service condition requirements. The awards will be settled in cash or in shares which is at the sole discretion of the compensation committee of the board of directors and hence these have been treated as equity settled as the Group has no
  present obligation to settle in cash. The amount to be settled for each SAR exercised is computed in each case, as the excess, if any, of the fair market value (the closing price of shares) on the exercise date over the exercise price of the SAR.

The fair value of the SARs has been calculated based on the Modified Black-Scholes-Merton method. Expected volatility was based on historical share price volatility for the period since the
F-32

IPO. The expected dividend is based on managements expectations of future payments on the grant date. The significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of the SARs is set out below:

    %The fair value of the RSUs was determined by using the grant date closing price of $13.26 per share and adjusting for the effect of the expected dividends which holders of RSUs are not entitled using a risk-free interest rate of 0.4% for the three years until the expiry of the RSUs which resulted in a
  fair value of $11.95 per RSU.

    Vessel off-hires and drydocking days that could occur but are not currently known are not taken into consideration; in addition early delivery of the vessels by the charterers is not accounted for. For time charters that have charter hire rates at prevailing market rates, revenue calculations include an estimate of the amount of the operating cost component.GasLog has issued performance guarantees in favor of Samsung for the outstanding commitments relating to the vessels under construction.
Future gross minimum lease revenues disclosed in the above table excludes the revenues of the vessels that are under construction as of December 31, 2013 (Note 5). For these vessels, the following charter party agreements have been signed:

    
    
    
    On May 11, 2011, GAS-eight Ltd. signed time charter agreement whereby the vessel will be time chartered out for the period from their delivery for seven years, with charterer options to extend the agreement for additional periods.
    
    
    
    In January 2013, GAS-eleven Ltd. and GAS-twelve Ltd. signed time charter agreements with a subsidiary of BG Group for the employment of the vessels for ten years starting from the date of their delivery, with charterer options to extend the agreements for additional periods.
    
    
    
    In August 2013, GAS-thirteen Ltd. and GAS-fourteen Ltd. signed time charter agreements with a subsidiary of BG Group for the employment of the vessels for seven years starting from the date of their delivery, with charterer options to extend the agreements for additional periods.(d)
    
    
    
    Other GuaranteesAs of December 31, 2013, GasLog LNG Services Ltd. has provided bank guarantees as follows:

    
    
    
    Up to $1,250,000 (2012: $1,250,000) to third parties relating to the satisfactory performance of its ship management activities;
    
    
    
    $894,766 (2012: $661,382) relating to the social security fund for Greek seamen; and
    
    
    
    Bank guarantee of $20,000 (2012: $20,000) to the Greek Ministry of Finance relating to the satisfactory performance of the obligations arising under Greek laws 89/1967, 378/1968 as amended by law 814/1978.20. Financial Risk Management
The Groups activities expose it to a variety of financial risks, including market price risk, liquidity risk and credit risk. The Groups overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on the Groups financial
  performance. The Group makes use of derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps to moderate certain risk exposures.
Market risk
Interest rate risk:Interest rate risk is the risk that interest costs will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. The Groups financial income and operating cash flows fluctuate based on changes in market interest rates as the Group has loans that bear interest at floating rates. The Group uses
  interest rate swaps to manage its exposure to interest rate movements on bank borrowings. At December 31, 2013, the Group has hedged 64.83% of its variable rate interest
F-34

exposure relating to its existing and undrawn loan facilities and Bond by swapping the variable rate for a fixed rate (2012: 62.34%).
The fair value of the interest rate swaps at December 31, 2013 was estimated as a loss of $5,725,653 (2012: $31,328,456). The effective movement in the fair value of the interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedging instruments (Note 21) amounting to $6,082,906 gain (2012: $15,992,827 loss and
  2011: $431,533 loss) was recognized directly in equity.
Interest rate sensitivity analysis:The interest rate swap agreements described below are subject to market risk as they are recorded at fair value in the statement of financial position at year end. The fair value of interest rate swap liabilities increases when interest rates decrease and decreases when
  interest rates increase. At December 31, 2013, if interest rates had increased or decreased by 10 basis points with all other variables held constant, the positive/(negative) impact, respectively, on the fair value of the interest rate and cross currency swaps would have amounted to approximately $4,519,765
  (2012: 3,806,220). This amount would have affected the other comprehensive income by $1,525,944 (2012: $3,030,543) and the gain/(loss) on swaps by $2,993,821 (2012: 775,677). During the year ended December 31, 2013, if interest rates had increased or decreased by 10 basis points with all other variables
  held constant, the increase/(decrease), respectively, in interest expense on the un-hedged portion of the Groups loans would have amounted to approximately $221,198 (2012: $119,104 and 2011: $216,280).
Other price risk:The decrease in the market value of shares of Egypt LNG Shipping Ltd. in response to unfavorable market conditions resulting in a decrease in charter rates and vessel values could negatively impact the value of investment in associate. Therefore, management might conclude that
  impairment is necessary in the future.
Currency risk:Currency risk is the risk that the value of financial instruments will fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates. Currency risk arises when future commercial transactions and recognized assets and liabilities are denominated in a currency that is not the Groups functional
  currency. The Group is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from various currency exposures primarily with respect to general and crew costs denominated in Euros. The Group has entered into cross currency swaps (Note 21) to hedge its currency exposure from the Bond. In addition, management
  monitors the exchange rate fluctuations on a continuous basis. As an indication of the extent of our sensitivity to changes in exchange rate, a 10% increase in the average euro/dollar exchange rate would have decreased our profit and cash flows during the year ended December 31, 2013 by $4,117,908,
  based upon our expenses during the year (2012: $2,653,310 and 2011: $2,017,298).
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that arises when the maturity of assets and liabilities does not match. An unmatched position potentially enhances profitability, but can also increase the risk of losses. The Group minimizes liquidity risk by maintaining sufficient cash and cash equivalents and by having
  available adequate amounts of undrawn credit facilities. The Group is not significantly exposed to liquidity risk resulting from the commitments under the vessel construction contracts as bank facilities will be contracted to meet the obligations.
The following tables detail the Groups expected cash flows for its non-derivative financial liabilities. The tables have been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the Group can be required to pay. The table includes both interest and
  principal cash flows. Variable future interest payments were determined based on an average LIBOR plus the margins applicable to the Groups loans at the end of each year presented.

The following tables detail the Groups expected cash flows for its derivative financial liabilities. The table has been drawn up based on the undiscounted contractual net cash inflows and outflows on derivative instruments that settle on a net basis. When the amount payable or receivable is not fixed,
  the amount disclosed has been determined by reference to the projected interest rates as illustrated by the yield curves existing at the end of the reporting period. The undiscounted contractual cash flows are based on the contractual maturities of the derivatives.

Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty will fail to discharge its obligations and cause a financial loss. The Group is exposed to credit risk in the event of non-performance by any of the counterparties. To limit this risk, the Group deals exclusively with creditworthy financial institutions and
  customers.

    7,256,534For the three years ended December 31, 2013, the Groups revenue was mainly earned from one customer and accounts receivable were not collateralized; however, management believes that the credit risk is partially offset by the creditworthiness of the Groups counterparty. The Group did not
  experience significant credit losses on its accounts receivable portfolio during the three years ended December 31, 2013. The carrying amount of financial assets recorded in the consolidated financial statements represents the Groups maximum exposure to credit risk. Management monitors exposure to
  credit risk, and they believe that there is no substantial credit risk arising from the Groups counter parties.
The credit risk on liquid funds and derivative financial instruments is limited because the counterparties are banks with high credit-ratings assigned by international credit-rating agencies.

The Group enters into fixed interest rate swap agreements which convert the floating interest rate exposure into a fixed interest rate in order to hedge a portion of the Groups exposure to fluctuations in prevailing market interest rates. Under the interest rate swaps, the bank counterparty effects
  quarterly floating-rate payments to the Group for the notional amount based on the three-
F-37

month U.S. dollar LIBOR, and the Group effects quarterly payments to the bank on the notional amount at the respective fixed rates.

    In 2013, hedge accounting for these interest rate swaps was discontinued because the effectiveness criteria were not met. The cumulative loss of $11,601,190 from the period that the hedges were effective will be recycled to the profit or loss in the same manner as the hedged item will affect profit or loss, (i.e., amortized until the maturity of the hedging transaction). The
      amount that was reclassified to profit or loss for the year ended December 31, 2013 is $2,292,972.The derivative instruments listed above qualified as cash flow hedging instruments for accounting purposes as of December 31, 2013 with the exception of the seven agreements for which the effectiveness criteria were not met as mentioned above.
For the swaps with Danish Ship Finance that was signed in June 2013, there was a loss recognized at inception of $317,440 which was charged against earnings and is presented in the consolidated statement of profit or loss under (Loss)/gain on swaps which included fees and evidence that the
  respective transaction prices exceeded the valuation based on observable market data. For the four swap agreements entered into by the Group during the year ended December 31, 2012, there was a loss of $2,060,253 recognized on inception, charged against earnings which is included in (Loss)/gain on
  swaps.
For the year ended December 31, 2013, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated as cash flow hedging instruments amounting to $6,082,906 gain has been recognized in Other comprehensive income (December 31, 2012: $15,992,827 loss). The gain of $8,820 relating to
  the ineffective portion was recognized during the year ended December 31, 2013, in the profit or loss under (Loss)/gain on swaps (December 31, 2012: $104,010 loss).

Cross currency swap agreements (CCS)
In June, 2013, GasLog entered into three CCSs to exchange interest payments and principal on maturity on the same terms as the Bond (Note 11) thereby hedging the variability of the USD functional currency equivalent cash flows on the Bond. The CCSs qualified as cash flow hedging instruments

    11,497,718Fair value measurements
The fair value of the interest rate swaps at the end of reporting period was determined by discounting the future cash flows using the interest rate yield curves at the end of reporting period and the credit risk inherent in the contract. The fair value of the CCSs at the end of the reporting period was
  determined by discounting the future cash flows that are estimated based on forward exchange rates and contract forward rates, discounted at a rate that reflects the credit risk of the counterparties. The Group uses its judgment to make assumptions that are mainly based on market observable data for
  the estimation of the counterparty risk and the Groups own risk that are considered for the calculation of the fair value of the interest rate and cross currency swaps. The interest rate swaps and CCSs meet Level 2 classification, according to the fair value hierarchy as defined by IFRS 7. There were no
  financial instruments in Levels 1 and 3 and no transfers between Levels 1, 2 or 3 during the periods presented. The definitions of the Levels, provided by IFRS 7 are based on the degree to which the fair value is observable:

    
    
    
    Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
    
    
    
    Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices); and
    
    
    
    Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).22. Taxation
Under the laws of the countries of the Groups domestication/incorporation and/or vessels registration, the Group is not subject to tax on international shipping income. However, it is subject to registration and tonnage taxes, which are included in vessel operating and supervision costs in the
  consolidated statement of income.
Under the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code), the U.S. source gross transportation income of a ship-owning or chartering corporation, such as GasLog, is subject to a 4% U.S. Federal income tax without allowance for deduction, unless that corporation qualifies
  for exemption from tax under Section 883 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. U.S. source gross transportation income consists of 50% of the gross shipping income that is attributable to transportation that begins or ends, but that does not both begin and end, in the
  United States.
The Group qualified for this exemption in 2011. For 2012 and 2013 the Group did not qualify for this exemption, however the effect on the results is insignificant.

23. Segment Reporting
The Groups chief operating decision maker (the CODM) is the Chief Executive Officer who reviews the results of the operating segments when making decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance. The segments are: (1) vessel ownership and (2) vessel management.
As of December 31, 2013, the vessel ownership segment consisted of seven LNG carriers operating on long-term, fixed rate time charter contracts and one LNG carrier operating on spot market, seven newbuildings on order at Samsung Heavy Industries Shipyard and the Groups participation in
  Egypt LNG Shipping Ltd. (Note 4). As of December 31, 2012, the vessel ownership segment consisted of two LNG carriers operating on long-term, fixed rate time charter contracts, installments paid for the vessels under construction and the Groups participation in Egypt LNG Shipping Ltd.
As of December 31, 2013, the vessel management segment managed a total of 20 vessels, 8 of which were vessels owned by the Group and included in vessel ownership segment and the remaining 12 of which were owned by external customers, one of which is a related party. During the year ended
  December 31, 2013, the vessel management segment had construction supervision projects for an average of 4.2 vessels owned by the Group. As of December 31, 2012, the vessel management segment managed a total of 14 vessels, 2 of which were vessels owned by the Group and included in vessel
  ownership segment and the remaining 12 of which were owned by external customers, one of which is a related party. During the year ended December 31, 2012, the vessel management segment had construction supervision projects for an average of 4.6 vessels. The segment results are evaluated by
  CODM based on the operating efficiency and the profit earned by the managed vessels.
The segment income statement comprises revenues and expenses directly attributable to each segment. Transactions between the segments are eliminated.
The segment non-current assets consist of the non-current assets used directly for segment operations. Current assets are allocated to segments to the extent that they are directly attributable to segment operations, including cash balances, inventories, outstanding receivables and prepayments.
Segment liabilities comprise segment operating liabilities including trade payables, ship management creditors, other liabilities and interest-bearing long-term debt.
Unallocated items primarily comprise assets and liabilities as well as financial income and expenses relating to the Groups administrative functions including compensation paid to senior management and directors and other costs, as well as financial investment activities.
Transactions with the other segments are based on various existing service agreements and are eliminated on consolidation. Eliminations primarily comprise of revenue earned by the vessel management segment which are operating costs of the vessel ownership segment and of intercompany
  receivables/payables between these two segments and elimination of intercompany profit/loss capitalized as vessel costs for construction supervision services provided by the vessel management segment.
The Group considers the global market as a whole, as the individual vessels are not limited to specific parts of the world. Furthermore, the internal management reporting does not provide geographical information on revenue from external customers or non-current assets. Consequently, it is not
  possible to provide such information.

Basic earnings per share (EPS) was calculated by dividing the net profit for the year attributable to the owners of the common shares by the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding during the year. Manager shares and subsidiary manager shares contained the right to
  receive non-forfeitable dividends (whether paid or unpaid) and participated equally with common shares in undistributed earnings and therefore were participating securities and, thus, are included in the two-class method of computing basic earnings per share for 2012 and 2011. In 2013, there were no
  participating securities as the manager shares and subsidiary manager shares were converted to common shares prior to the completion of the IPO.
Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing the profit for the year attributable to the owners of the Group by the weighted average number of all potential ordinary shares assumed to have been converted into common shares.

25. Subsequent Events
In January 2014, GasLog signed an agreement with Methane Services Ltd. (MSL), an affiliate of BG Group, to purchase three LNG carriers from MSLs fleet and to charter those ships back to MSL for six-year initial terms. MSL also has the option to extend the term of the time charters for two
  of the ships for a period of either three or five years at its election. The ships to be acquired will be nominated by MSL from an agreed group of six sister ships built at Samsung in 2006 and 2007. GasLog supervised the construction of all six ships and has provided technical management for them since
  delivery. The aggregate cost to GasLog for the ships is expected to be approximately $468 million. Each LNG carrier to be acquired is a modern, steam powered and has a cargo capacity of 145,000 cubic meters.
In February 2014, GasLog Partners L.P. (the MLP), a subsidiary of the Company, made a confidential submission to the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) of a draft registration statement on Form F-1 for an initial public offering of units in a MLP formed to own certain
  of GasLogs LNG carriers with multi-year charters. The proceeds of the offering would principally be used to reduce indebtedness. Completion of the initial public offering is subject to further Board authorization as well as completion of the SEC review process.
On January 22, 2014, GasLog completed a follow-on public offering of 10,925,000 common shares, including 1,425,000 common shares issued upon the exercise in full by the underwriters of their option to purchase additional shares. The public offering price was $15.75 per share. GasLog also sold
  2,317,460 common shares at the public offering price in a private placement to certain of its directors and officers and one of its major shareholders. Following the aforementioned equity raising, Mr Peter G. Livanos beneficially owns 42.3% of GasLogs common shares.
In connection with the acquisition of the three ships from MSL, GasLog has obtained commitments from Citibank, N.A. London Branch for a $325.5 million of debt financing with a two year maturity and a short-term bridge loan facility for up to $100.0 million. However, as a result of the funds
  raised from the equity offering noted above, the bridge loan facility was cancelled.
On February 27, 2014, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.12 per common share payable on March 25, 2014 to shareholders of record as of March 10, 2014.
