Dear Fellow Dorian LPG Shareholder:

        On July 9, 2018, BW LPG Limited ("BW LPG") submitted a revised proposal to Dorian LPG Ltd. ("Dorian") to combine with Dorian in a transaction in which Dorian shareholders would receive 2.12 common shares of BW LPG ("BW LPG Common Shares") for each common share of Dorian ("Dorian Common Shares") they own (the "Revised Proposal"). The Revised Proposal represents an aggregate value of $8.79 per share based on the closing price of the BW LPG Common Shares on July 18, 2018.

        As of July 18, 2018, the Revised Proposal represents:

        On June 15, 2018, Dorian rejected the Initial Proposal. As of the date of this proxy statement, Dorian has not responded to the Revised Proposal other than by issuing a press release confirming receipt of the Revised Proposal.

        We are sending you the enclosed proxy statement and the accompanying WHITE proxy card or WHITE voting instruction form because we are soliciting proxies from Dorian's shareholders to be voted at the 2018 annual meeting of shareholders of Dorian to be held on [·], 2018, at [·] at [·] (including any adjournment or postponement thereof and any meeting of shareholders of Dorian that may be called in lieu thereof, the "Annual Meeting"). At the Annual Meeting, we will seek to elect a slate of three independent and highly qualified candidates to the Dorian board of directors to serve as Class II directors. If elected, those three candidates would comprise all of the Class II directors and three out of seven directors overall.

        We have decided to ask our fellow shareholders to support the election of three independent candidates who we believe are highly qualified to serve as directors of Dorian. We believe they are well-respected members of the business community with extensive industry, financial and board experience who are committed to act in the best interests of Dorian and its shareholders. We believe that, if elected, each of our candidates would be considered an independent director of Dorian, will exercise his or her independent judgment in all matters that come before the Dorian board of directors and has the necessary track-record, strategic vision and experience to maximize shareholder value.

        We urge all Dorian shareholders to make their voices heard by voting to elect these three independent and highly qualified candidates who are open to exploring opportunities to maximize value.

        Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we urge you to vote for the election of the independent candidates nominated by us by signing, dating and returning the enclosed WHITE proxy card or WHITE voting instruction form in the postage-paid envelope (or by submitting your voting


Table of Contents

instructions by Internet or telephone as described on the WHITE proxy card or WHITE voting instruction form) as soon as possible. We urge you not to sign or return Dorian's [·] proxy card or otherwise provide proxies sent to you by Dorian. Doing so, even to withhold on the Dorian board's nominees, will revoke any vote you may have cast for the independent nominees on the WHITE proxy card. If you have returned Dorian's [·] proxy card, you have every right to change your vote by returning a later dated WHITE proxy card. Only your latest-dated validly executed proxy card will count.

        Remember, if your Dorian Common Shares are held through a brokerage firm, bank or other nominee, only it can exercise voting rights with respect to your shares and only upon receipt of specific instructions from you. Accordingly, it is critical that you promptly complete the enclosed WHITE voting instruction form or contact the person responsible for your account and give instructions to have your shares voted for the election of the independent and highly qualified candidates nominated by us.

        If you have any questions or require any assistance in executing or delivering your proxy, please contact our proxy solicitor, MacKenzie Partners, Inc., by telephone at 800-322-2885 or 212-929-5500 or by e-mail at LPGproxy@mackenziepartners.com.

Very truly yours,

2018 ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS
[·], 2018
PROXY STATEMENT
OF
BW LPG LIMITED
BW LPG HOLDING LIMITED
BW EUROHOLDINGS LIMITED
BAUDOIN LORANS
OUMA SANANIKONE
JEFFREY SCHWARZ

        This proxy statement and the enclosed WHITE proxy card or WHITE voting instruction form are being furnished by BW LPG Limited, an exempted company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of Bermuda ("BW LPG"), its wholly owned subsidiary, BW LPG Holding Limited, an exempted company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of Bermuda ("BW LPG Holding"), BW Euroholdings Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of Cyprus ("BW Euroholdings"), Baudoin Lorans, Ouma Sananikone and Jeffrey Schwarz to shareholders of Dorian LPG Ltd., a company incorporated under the laws of the Republic of the Marshall Islands ("Dorian"), in connection with the solicitation of proxies to be voted at the 2018 annual meeting of shareholders of Dorian, including any adjournments or postponements thereof and any meeting of Dorian shareholders held in lieu thereof (the "Annual Meeting"). References to "BW" "we", "us" or "our" refer to BW LPG, BW LPG Holding and/or BW Euroholdings, as the context requires.

        Pursuant to this proxy statement, we are soliciting proxies from the holders of common shares of Dorian ("Dorian Common Shares") to take the following action:

        If any of the Independent Nominees is unable to serve or for good cause will not serve as a director, we reserve the right to nominate a substitute nominee for election as a director. In such event, we will file an amended proxy statement that identifies any such substitute nominee, discloses that any such substitute nominee has consented to being named in our amended proxy statement and to serve as a director of Dorian if elected and includes the information with respect to such substitute nominee required to be disclosed under the proxy rules. In any such case, the WHITE proxy card or WHITE voting instruction form will be voted for such substitute nominee(s) in compliance with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") rules and any other applicable requirements.

        Dorian has announced that the Annual Meeting will be held on [·], 2018 at [·] at [·]. Dorian set the close of business on [·], 2018 as the record date for determining the Dorian shareholders who will be entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting (the "record date").

        This proxy statement and the accompanying WHITE proxy card or WHITE voting instruction form are first being sent or given to holders of shares of Dorian Common Shares on or about [·], 2018.

        As of the date of this proxy statement, BW does not know of any other business that will be presented at the Annual Meeting. If, however, other matters are properly presented at the Annual Meeting but were not known a reasonable time prior to the mailing of the definitive proxy statement or are matters incidental to the conduct of the meeting, and you have signed, dated and returned the enclosed WHITE proxy card or WHITE voting instruction form (or submitted your voting instructions by Internet or telephone as described on the enclosed WHITE proxy card or WHITE voting instruction form), the named proxies will vote the shares represented thereby in their discretion in relation to such business.


Table of Contents

        As of the date of this proxy statement, BW LPG Holding beneficially owns 100 Dorian Common Shares and BW Euroholdings beneficially owns 7,826,460 Dorian Common Shares, which in the aggregate represents approximately 14.2% of the Dorian Common Shares outstanding. Each of BW LPG Holding and BW Euroholdings intends to hold all of such shares through the record date and intends to vote or cause such shares to be voted FOR the election of the Independent Nominees.

        In order to be eligible to make nominations for election to the Dorian board of directors, a shareholder and its proposed nominees must comply with the advance notice and other provisions of Article III, Section 3 of the Bylaws of Dorian LPG Ltd., adopted July 1, 2013 (the "Dorian Bylaws"). BW LPG Holding timely submitted a notice of its intention to nominate the Independent Nominees for election to the Dorian board of directors and related documentation to the Secretary of Dorian on July 16, 2018 in accordance with the Dorian Bylaws.


THIS SOLICITATION IS BEING MADE BY BW AND THE INDEPENDENT NOMINEES AND NOT ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OR MANAGEMENT OF DORIAN OR ANY OTHER PERSON.

        On July 9, 2018, BW LPG submitted a revised proposal to Dorian to combine with Dorian in a transaction in which Dorian shareholders would receive 2.12 common shares of BW LPG ("BW LPG Common Shares") for each common share of Dorian ("Dorian Common Shares") they own (the "Revised Proposal"). The Revised Proposal represents an aggregate value of $8.79 per share based on the closing price of the BW LPG Common Shares on July 18, 2018. As of July 18, 2018, the Revised Proposal represents a premium of 26% to the $6.96 closing price of the Dorian Common Shares on May 25, 2018, the last trading day before BW LPG submitted its initial proposal on May 29, 2018, under which Dorian shareholders would have received 2.05 BW LPG Common Shares for each Dorian Common Share they own (the "Initial Proposal"), a premium of 19% to the long-term historical exchange ratio of Dorian and BW LPG since Dorian's initial public offering ("IPO") and through May 25, 2018, a premium of 12% to the closing price of the Dorian Common Shares on July 18, 2018 and an enterprise value of approximately $1.1 billion, which, based on Dorian's adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") for the financial year ended March 31, 2018 as reported in Dorian's press release relating to its financial results for the quarterly period and fiscal year ended March 31, 2018, represents an enterprise value to adjusted EBITDA multiple of 15.0x.


IMPORTANT

        If elected, the Independent Nominees would serve with Dorian's other four directors and therefore would not constitute a majority of the Dorian board. However, because the Independent Nominees are independent of BW, we believe they will consider without any bias our Revised Proposal and be willing to be outspoken in the boardroom about their views for maximizing shareholder value, which may include pursuing a business combination of Dorian with BW LPG or a third party, or remaining independent. We believe that a vote for the Independent Nominees will increase the likelihood that the Dorian board of directors will consider the views of all shareholders and actively explore strategic opportunities, including a potential combination.

        We are not soliciting proxies to approve a merger or other transaction involving Dorian, including the Revised Proposal. Your vote for the election of the independent candidates nominated by us does not obligate you or any Independent Nominee to approve any transaction between BW LPG and Dorian.

        This proxy statement, any additional proxy solicitation materials of BW and the Independent Nominees and the WHITE proxy card are available at http://www.bwlpg.com/Investor-Centre/BWLPG_DorianLPG_ProposedCombination. None of the information available at such website will be deemed to be incorporated by reference into this proxy statement.

The Sohmen Family Foundation, a foundation organized under the laws of Liechtenstein (the "Foundation"), holds 93.25% of BW Group. As of the date of this proxy statement, BW Group owns approximately 45% of BW LPG.

        For additional information regarding BW LPG, BW LPG Holding, BW Euroholdings and the Independent Nominees and information regarding the directors, officers and employees of BW LPG, BW LPG Holding, BW Euroholdings and their respective affiliates who may be deemed participants in the solicitation of proxies by BW in connection with the Annual Meeting, please see "the BW Independent Nominees" and "Information about the Participants" below.

What are we asking you to vote for?

        We are asking for your proxy to vote FOR the election of the Independent Nominees on the enclosed WHITE proxy card or WHITE voting instruction form.

        The Dorian board of directors currently consists of seven directors and is divided into three classes: Class I, Class II and Class III. Pursuant to Dorian's Articles of Incorporation, dated as of July 1, 2013, as amended April 25, 2014 (the "Dorian Articles of Incorporation"), each class of directors must consist of, as nearly as possible, one-third the total number of directors. Directors elected at the Annual Meeting will hold office for a three-year term and until their successors have been elected and qualified or their death, resignation, removal or the earlier termination of their term of office.

        We are proposing that Baudoin Lorans, Ouma Sananikone and Jeffrey Schwarz be elected to the Dorian board of directors as the Class II directors. We believe that the Independent Nominees are highly qualified to serve on the Dorian board of directors, and are well-respected members of the

i


Table of Contents

business community with extensive industry, finance and board experience who are committed to act in the best interests of Dorian and its shareholders. We also believe that the Independent Nominees have the necessary track-record, strategic vision and experience to maximize shareholder value.

        We believe that the Independent Nominees are independent under the applicable New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") rules and Dorian's corporate governance guidelines. We also believe that the Independent Nominees are independent under the heightened independent standards applicable to audit committee members under the rules of the NYSE and the SEC. None of the Independent Nominees are affiliated with BW LPG, BW LPG Holding, BW Euroholdings or any of their respective affiliates. The Independent Nominees have specifically agreed to exercise their independent judgment in accordance with their fiduciary duties in all matters that come before the Dorian board of directors. Additional information about the Independent Nominees is set forth in this proxy statement under the section titled "Proposal I—The BW Independent Nominees" and in Appendix I and Appendix II to this proxy statement, which we urge you to read.

Why are we soliciting your vote?

        On July 9, 2018, BW LPG submitted a revised proposal to Dorian to combine with Dorian in a transaction in which Dorian shareholders would receive 2.12 BW LPG Common Shares for each Dorian share.

        We believe a vote for the Independent Nominees will let Dorian know that you want Dorian to engage in and continue good faith negotiations with BW LPG regarding the Revised Proposal. We also believe that a vote for the Independent Nominees will increase the likelihood that the Dorian board of directors will consider the views of all shareholders and actively explore strategic opportunities, including a potential combination.

        We believe that the Independent Nominees are highly qualified to serve as directors of Dorian, and are well-respected members of the business community with extensive industry, finance and board experience who are committed to act in the best interests of Dorian and its shareholders. We believe that, if elected, each of the Independent Nominees would be considered an independent director of Dorian under the applicable NYSE rules and Dorian's corporate governance guidelines, will exercise his or her independent judgment in all matters that come before the Dorian board of directors and has the necessary track-record, strategic vision and experience to maximize shareholder value.

If you elect the Independent Nominees to the Dorian board of directors, are you agreeing to a combination of BW LPG and Dorian?

        No. Your vote to elect the Independent Nominees to the Dorian board of directors does not obligate Dorian to agree to combine with BW LPG or obligate you or any Independent Nominee to vote in favor of any transaction between Dorian and BW LPG or otherwise consent to any transaction between BW LPG and Dorian. Even if all three of our Independent Nominees are elected at the Annual Meeting, they will still only constitute a minority of the Dorian board of directors. BW has no agreement with any of the Independent Nominees to agree to the terms of the Revised Proposal if elected to the Dorian board. If elected, we expect that each of the Independent Nominees will work to cause the board to engage with us and independently evaluate the Revised Proposal and any other strategic alternative in the best interests of ALL Dorian shareholders.

        Although we believe the election of the Independent Nominees to the Dorian board of directors is an important step toward encouraging Dorian to enter into and continue good faith negotiations with us with respect to the Revised Proposal, we are not asking the Dorian shareholders to consent to or vote on the Revised Proposal at this time.

Table of Contents

Where and when will the Annual Meeting be held?

        Dorian has announced that the Annual Meeting is scheduled to be held on [·], 2018, at [·] at [·].

Who can vote at the Annual Meeting?

        If you owned Dorian Common Shares, either registered in your name or registered in the name of your brokerage firm, bank or other nominee, at the close of business on [·], 2018, the record date for the Annual Meeting, you are entitled to vote or cause your shares to be voted at the Annual Meeting.

        Many Dorian shareholders hold their shares through a brokerage firm, bank or other nominee ("beneficially"), rather than directly in their own name. As summarized below, there are distinctions between shares held of record and those owned beneficially:

How many shares must be voted in favor of the Independent Nominees to elect them?

        According to the Dorian Articles of Incorporation, at the Annual Meeting, directors will be elected to the Dorian board of directors by a plurality of the votes cast by holders of Dorian Common Shares entitled to vote in the election. Accordingly, the three candidates who receive the greatest number of FOR votes cast for election will be the duly elected Class II directors of Dorian. Cumulative voting is not permitted.

        Abstentions and "broker non-votes" will not be considered to be votes cast for the election of directors and therefore will have no effect on the outcome of the election of directors. "Broker non-votes" are shares held by a broker that are represented at a meeting of shareholders, but with respect to which brokers are prohibited from exercising voting authority with respect to non-routine matters, such as the election of directors, because the broker has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner and the broker lacks discretionary authority to vote the shares.

        As of the date of this proxy statement, BW LPG Holding beneficially owns 100 Dorian Common Shares and BW Euroholdings beneficially owns 7,826,460 Dorian Common Shares, which in the aggregate represents approximately 14.2% of the Dorian Common Shares outstanding. Each of BW LPG Holding and BW Euroholdings intends to hold all of such shares through the record date and intends to vote or cause such shares to be voted FOR the election of the Independent Nominees.

Table of Contents

How can you vote?

        You can vote your Dorian Common Shares for the election of the Independent Nominees in one of the following ways:

        If you hold your Dorian Common Shares in "street name" with a brokerage firm, bank or other nominee, unless you obtain a "legal" proxy, only your brokerage firm, bank or other nominee can exercise voting rights with respect to your Dorian Common Shares. It is required to vote such Dorian Common Shares in accordance with your instructions. Accordingly, it is critical that you promptly follow the instructions set forth in the WHITE voting instruction form provided by your brokerage firm, bank or other nominee to ensure that your Dorian Common Shares are voted FOR the election of each of the Independent Nominees to the Dorian board of directors. BW recommends that you confirm in writing your instructions to the person responsible for your account and provide a copy of those instructions to BW (c/o MacKenzie Partners, Inc., 1407 Broadway, 27th Floor, New York, NY 10018), so that BW will be aware of all instructions given and can attempt to ensure that those instructions are followed.

        We urge you not to sign or return the [·] proxy card of Dorian or otherwise provide your proxy to Dorian. It will NOT help elect the Independent Nominees if you sign and return the [·] proxy card of Dorian and vote against Dorian's nominees (the "Management Nominees") or withhold your vote for the Management Nominees. Doing so may cancel any previous votes you have cast, including a previous vote FOR the Independent Nominees.

What if you have already signed or returned a [·] proxy card or otherwise provided your proxy to Dorian?

        If you have already signed or returned a [·] proxy card or otherwise provided your proxy to Dorian and you are a Dorian shareholder of record, you may revoke your previously signed or returned [·] proxy card or otherwise provided proxy by signing and returning a later-dated WHITE proxy card in the enclosed postage-paid envelope, by submitting a later-dated proxy by Internet or telephone

(instructions appear on your WHITE proxy card), by attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person or by delivering a written notice of revocation to BW (c/o MacKenzie Partners, Inc., 1407 Broadway, 27th Floor, New York, NY 10018) or to the Secretary of Dorian. Only your latest dated proxy or your vote in person at the Annual Meeting will be counted.

        Please note that if your Dorian Common Shares are held in "street name" by a brokerage firm, bank or other nominee, you must follow the instructions set forth in the WHITE voting instruction form provided by your brokerage firm, bank or other nominee to revoke your earlier vote. BW recommends that you confirm in writing your instructions to the person responsible for your account and provide a copy of those instructions to BW (c/o MacKenzie Partners, Inc., 1407 Broadway, 27th Floor, New York, NY 10018), so that BW will be aware of all instructions given and can attempt to ensure that those instructions are followed.

What happens if you return a signed WHITE proxy card or WHITE voting instruction form without voting instructions?

        If you return a signed WHITE proxy card or WHITE voting instruction form without providing voting instructions, your Dorian Common Shares will be voted FOR the election of each of the Independent Nominees to the Dorian board of directors.

Will any other matters be considered at the Annual Meeting?

        We do not know of any other matters to be presented for approval by the shareholders of Dorian at the Annual Meeting. If, however, other matters are properly presented that (i) we did not know, within a reasonable time before our solicitation, were to be presented at the Annual Meeting or (ii) are matters incident to the conduct of the meeting, the persons named in the enclosed WHITE proxy card or WHITE voting instruction form will vote the Dorian Common Shares represented thereby in accordance with their best judgment in relation to such additional business pursuant to the discretionary authority granted in the proxy.

What is the deadline for submitting proxies?

        Proxies can be submitted until action on the director nominations is taken at the Annual Meeting. However, to be sure that we receive your proxy in time to utilize it, we request that you provide your proxy to us c/o Corporate Election Services, P.O. Box 3230, Pittsburg, PA 15230 as early as possible.

How can proxies be revoked?

        A Dorian shareholder of record may revoke or change his or her proxy instructions, including proxies already given to Dorian (including Dorian's [·] proxy cards), at any time prior to the vote at the Annual Meeting by:

v


Table of Contents

        For information on the revocation of proxies, please see the section titled "Revocation of Proxies."

        Please note that if your Dorian Common Shares are held in "street name" by a brokerage firm, bank or other nominee, you must follow the instructions set forth in the WHITE voting instruction form provided by your brokerage firm, bank or other nominee to revoke your earlier vote. Submitting a later-dated WHITE voting instruction form by Internet or telephone, or mailing a later-dated WHITE voting instruction form, will revoke a previously cast vote. BW recommends that you confirm in writing your instructions to the person responsible for your account and provide a copy of those instructions to BW (c/o MacKenzie Partners, Inc., 1407 Broadway, 27th Floor, New York, NY 10018), so that BW will be aware of all instructions given and can attempt to ensure that those instructions are followed.

What does it mean if I receive more than one WHITE proxy card or WHITE voting instruction form?

        If you hold your Dorian Common Shares in multiple registrations, or in both registered and "street name," you will receive a WHITE proxy card and/or WHITE voting instruction form for each account. Please sign, date and return all WHITE proxy cards and WHITE voting instruction forms you receive. If you choose to vote by Internet or telephone, please vote each WHITE proxy card and WHITE voting instruction form you receive. Only your last dated proxy for each account will be voted.

Who is paying for the solicitation?

        BW LPG will pay all costs of the solicitation and will not seek reimbursement of these costs from Dorian.

Whom should you call if you have any questions about the solicitation?

        If you have any questions, or need assistance in voting your Dorian Common Shares, please contact BW's proxy solicitor, MacKenzie Partners, Inc., by telephone at 800-322-2885 or 212-929-5500 or by e-mail at LPGproxy@mackenziepartners.com.

PROPOSAL I: ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Nomination for Election and Qualifications to Serve as Director

        The Dorian board of directors currently consists of seven directors and is divided into three classes: Class I, Class II and Class III. Pursuant to Dorian's Articles of Incorporation, each class of directors must consist of, as nearly as possible, one-third the total number of directors. Directors elected at the Annual Meeting will hold office for a three-year term and until their successors have been elected and qualified or their death, resignation, removal or the earlier termination of their term of office. BW is seeking your support at the Annual Meeting to elect the three Independent Nominees, who are Baudoin Lorans, Ouma Sananikone and Jeffrey Schwarz, to the Dorian board of directors as Class II directors. If elected, those three candidates would comprise all of the Class II directors and three out of seven directors overall, and would hold office until the 2021 annual meeting of the shareholders of Dorian and their respective successors have been elected and qualified or until their respective death, resignation, removal or the earlier termination of their term of office. Each of the Independent Nominees has consented to being nominated by BW LPG Holding for election to the Dorian board of directors, to being named as an Independent Nominee in this proxy statement and the form of proxy and form of voting instruction form relating to his or her election as a director of Dorian and, if elected, to serving as a director of Dorian.

        Pursuant to the Nomination Agreements, BW LPG has agreed to pay certain out-of-pocket expenses incurred by each Independent Nominee in connection with his or her nomination for election to the Dorian board of directors, and subject to certain exceptions, to indemnify each Independent Nominee with respect to losses, claims and other costs and expenses to which such Independent Nominee may become subject or may incur arising out of the solicitation of proxies for the Independent Nominee's election to the Dorian board of directors. The Independent Nominees will not be entitled to receive compensation from BW for serving as Independent Nominees, for being elected to the Dorian board of directors or for service as directors on the Dorian board of directors.

        We believe that each of the Independent Nominees is highly qualified to serve as a director of Dorian and would be considered an independent director of Dorian under the applicable NYSE rules and Dorian's corporate governance guidelines, which guidelines are available at http://dorianlpg.com/investor-center/corporate-governance/default.aspx?section=governancepolicies. None of the information available at such website will be deemed to be incorporated by reference into this proxy statement. We also believe that each of the Independent Nominees would be considered independent under the heightened independent standards applicable to audit committee members under the rules of the NYSE and the SEC.

        In addition, the Independent Nominees understand that, if elected to the Dorian board of directors, each of them will have fiduciary duties to Dorian and its shareholders as a director of Dorian. Each of the Independent Nominees has made a commitment to, if elected, act in the best interests of Dorian and its shareholders and exercise his or her independent judgment in accordance with his or her fiduciary duties in all matters that come before the Dorian board of directors, including any proposal from BW.

Reasons to Vote for the Independent Nominees

        We believe a vote for the Independent Nominees will let Dorian know that you want Dorian to engage in and continue good faith negotiations with BW LPG regarding the Revised Proposal. We believe that the combination of BW LPG and Dorian would create a leading owner and operator of modern Very Large Gas Carriers (VLGCs), and that shareholders of Dorian would realize the significant benefits it would bring to stakeholders of both companies, including a combined fleet with

better geographical coverage that will enable customers to receive improved utilization, scheduling and positioning.

        Specifically, on July 9, 2018, BW LPG submitted the Revised Proposal to combine with Dorian in a transaction in which Dorian shareholders would receive 2.12 BW LPG Common Shares for each Dorian Common Share they own, which consideration represents an aggregate value of $8.79 per share based on the closing price of BW LPG Common Shares on July 18, 2018. As of July 18, 2018, the Revised Proposal represents a premium of 26% to the $6.96 closing price of Dorian Common Shares on May 25, 2018, the last trading day before BW LPG submitted the Initial Proposal, a premium of 19% to the long-term historical exchange ratio of Dorian and BW LPG since Dorian's IPO and through May 25, 2018, a premium of 12% to the closing price of the Dorian Common Shares on July 18, 2018 and an enterprise value of approximately $1.1 billion, which, based on Dorian's adjusted EBITDA for the financial year ended March 31, 2018 as reported in Dorian's press release relating to its financial results for the quarterly period and fiscal year ended March 31, 2018, represents an enterprise value to adjusted EBITDA multiple of 15.0x.

None of the foregoing companies are parents, subsidiaries or affiliates of Dorian or BW.

Mr. Schwarz received a BS in Economics (Summa Cum Laude) and an MBA from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania.

        If elected, we would expect that each of the Independent Nominees will be entitled to such compensation from Dorian as is provided to non-executive directors of Dorian and is described in Dorian's definitive proxy statement in respect of its 2017 annual meeting of shareholders dated July 31, 2017 (the "2017 Dorian Proxy Statement") under the heading "Director Compensation." According to the 2017 Dorian Proxy Statement, Dorian's non-executive directors receive annual compensation of $100,000 (50% in cash and 50% as an equity award in a form determined by Dorian's Compensation

Committee), paid quarterly in arrears. The chairman of the Compensation Committee, the Audit Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee each receive additional annual cash compensation of $15,000. Further, any director serving on a committee of the Dorian board of directors, other than a chairman of a committee, receives additional annual cash compensation of $10,000 per committee. Each director is also reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses in connection with attending meetings of the Dorian board of directors or committees. Each director is fully indemnified by Dorian for actions associated with being a director to the extent permitted under Marshall Islands law. Dorian's directors are also eligible to receive awards under an equity incentive plan that Dorian adopted prior to the completion of its initial public offering. BW believes that the Independent Nominees would be entitled to receive the foregoing compensation and benefits arrangements if elected to the Dorian board of directors. BW also believes that, upon election, the Independent Nominees would be covered by Dorian's director and officer liability insurance, if any, and would be entitled to any other benefits made available to the other directors of Dorian. All information regarding Dorian's director compensation and benefits arrangements set forth in herein is derived solely from the 2017 Dorian Proxy Statement, and BW disclaims any responsibility for the foregoing.

        If elected to the Dorian board of directors, the Independent Nominees will not receive any compensation from BW for their election to the Dorian board of directors or services as directors of Dorian.

        Each of the Independent Nominees may be deemed to have an interest in the election of directors at the Annual Meeting by virtue of his or her nomination for election to the Dorian board of directors and the compensation he or she will receive from Dorian as a director, if elected to the Dorian board of directors, and as described elsewhere in this proxy statement.

        BW does not expect that any of the Independent Nominees will be unable to stand for election, but reserves the right to nominate substitute or additional persons as nominees for any reason, including in the event that (1) the Dorian board of directors is expanded beyond its current size and/or (2) any of the Independent Nominees is unable for any reason, including by reason of the taking or announcement of any action by Dorian that has, or if consummated would have, the effect of disqualifying any such Independent Nominee, to serve as a director or for good cause shown will not serve as a director. In any such case, we will file an amended proxy statement that identifies any such substitute or additional nominee, discloses that any such substitute or additional nominee has consented to being named in our amended proxy statement and to serve as a director of Dorian if elected and includes the information with respect to such substitute or additional nominee required to be disclosed under the proxy rules. In the event that Dorian refuses to permit a substitute or additional nominee as contemplated by this paragraph by reason of the Dorian Bylaws or otherwise, we reserve the right to challenge the Dorian Bylaws or the application of the Dorian Bylaws to such substitute or additional nominees or such other action in an appropriate legal proceeding. In the event that any of the Independent Nominees is unable to serve (or for good cause will not serve) or additional persons are nominated by BW as nominees, the Dorian Common Shares represented by the enclosed WHITE proxy card or WHITE voting instruction form will be voted for the substitute nominees of BW in compliance with SEC rules and any other applicable requirements.

        WE URGE YOU TO VOTE FOR THE ELECTION OF BAUDOIN LORANS, OUMA SANANIKONE AND JEFFREY SCHWARZ BY MARKING, SIGNING, DATING AND RETURNING YOUR WHITE PROXY CARD OR WHITE VOTING INSTRUCTION FORM IN THE ENCLOSED POSTAGE-PAID ENVELOPE TODAY.

OTHER MATTERS

        Except for the matters discussed above, BW knows of no other matters to be presented for approval by the shareholders of Dorian at the Annual Meeting. If, however, other matters are properly presented that (i) we did not know, within a reasonable time before our solicitation, were to be presented at the Annual Meeting or (ii) are matters incident to the conduct of the meeting, the persons named in the enclosed WHITE proxy card or WHITE voting instruction form will vote the Dorian Common Shares represented thereby in accordance with their best judgment in relation to such additional business pursuant to the discretionary authority granted in the proxy.


BACKGROUND OF THE SOLICITATION

        As part of the regular evaluation of its business, BW LPG considers a variety of strategic options and transactions. In connection with such evaluation process, and consistent with its view that a larger fleet with better geographical coverage will drive value for BW LPG's customers, BW LPG has from time to time considered pursuing strategic transactions with other shipping companies, including Dorian.

        In furtherance thereof, representatives of BW have from time to time had informal conversations with representatives of Dorian and certain of its shareholders regarding the potential exploration of a strategic transaction between BW LPG and Dorian.

        On May 29, 2018, Andreas Sohmen-Pao, the Chairman of the Board of Directors of BW LPG, telephoned John Hadjipateras, Dorian's Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, to inform Mr. Hadjipateras that BW LPG strongly believes in the strategic merit of a combination of BW LPG and Dorian and that Mr. Sohmen-Pao would be sending Mr. Hadjipateras a letter shortly thereafter setting forth a proposal for such a combination.

        Following the telephone call between Mr. Sohmen-Pao and Mr. Hadjipateras, Mr. Sohmen-Pao sent the following letter to Mr. Hadjipateras.

        On May 30, 2018, BW LPG held an investor call to discuss its financial results for the first quarter of 2018 as well as the Initial Proposal.

        On June 15, 2018, Mr. Hadjipateras sent a letter to Mr. Sohmen-Pao stating that the Dorian board of directors had reviewed the Initial Proposal with its outside advisers and had unanimously decided to decline it. Also on June 15, 2018, Dorian issued a press release announcing that the Dorian board of directors had declined the Initial Proposal, made available an investor presentation regarding its response to the Initial Proposal and held an investor call to discuss Dorian's financial results for the three months and fiscal year ended March 31, 2018, during which call Dorian's response to the Initial Proposal was also discussed.

        On June 18, 2018, Martin Ackermann, Chief Executive Officer of BW LPG, contacted Mr. Hadjipateras to seek to arrange an informal meeting while they were both in New York City for an industry conference. Despite Mr. Ackermann making himself widely available to meet with Mr. Hadjipateras on June 18 and 19, 2018, no such meeting occurred.

        Also on June 18, 2018, representatives of Citigroup Global Markets Inc. ("Citi"), BW LPG's financial advisor, contacted representatives of Evercore Group L.L.C. ("Evercore"), Dorian's financial advisor, to discuss the Initial Proposal, but the representatives of Evercore responded that Evercore was not prepared to discuss the Initial Proposal with Citi at that time.

        On June 26, 2018, BW LPG sent the following letter to the Dorian board of directors highlighting Dorian shareholder support for the Initial Proposal and clarifying certain details regarding the Initial Proposal.

        On July 5, 2018, BW LPG Holding purchased 100 Dorian Common Shares.

        On July 9, 2018, BW LPG sent the following letter to Dorian's board of directors setting out the Revised Proposal.

        We continue to believe that the proposed combination of Dorian and BW LPG is a unique and compelling opportunity to maximize value for the shareholders of both companies.

        Accordingly, on behalf of the BW LPG board of directors, we are presenting this revised proposal for a combination of BW LPG and Dorian, under which Dorian shareholders would receive 2.12 BW LPG shares for each Dorian share. Following BW LPG's dual-listing on the NYSE and the completion of the transaction, Dorian shareholders would own approximately 46% of the combined company.

        Based on BW LPG's share price of NOK 32.86 per share and an NOK/USD exchange rate of 8.03, our revised proposal values each Dorian share at $8.67 per share, which represents:

Sincerely,

Andreas Sohmen-Pao   Martin Ackermann
Chairman of the Board of Directors   Chief Executive Officer

BW LPG Holding demanded prompt access to the requested books and records, and included a deadline of July 13, 2018 for Dorian to provide such access. On July 12, 2018, Dorian's counsel sent a letter to Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton LLP ("Cleary Gottlieb"), counsel to BW, acknowledging receipt of the Demand Letter and noting that Dorian expected to respond to it promptly.

In particular, such election may increase the likelihood of the Company (i) engaging in and continuing discussions and negotiations with BW LPG with respect to the Revised Proposal, (ii) entering into a definitive acquisition agreement with BW LPG with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Revised Proposal and/or (iii) consummating the transactions contemplated by the Revised Proposal and certain other transactions in connection therewith.

        BW LPG Holding beneficially owns 100 Dorian Common Shares. In addition, BW Euroholdings, a wholly owned subsidiary of BW Group, beneficially owns 7,826,460 Dorian Common Shares. BW Group, as the owner of approximately 45% of BW LPG as of the date of this proxy statement, may be deemed to beneficially own the 100 Dorian Common Shares held by BW LPG Holding and the 7,826,460 Dorian Common Shares held by BW Euroholdings. The Foundation, as the owner of 93.25% of BW Group, may also be deemed to beneficially own such Dorian Common Shares.

        Each of the Independent Nominees may be deemed to have an interest in the election of directors at the Annual Meeting by virtue of being a nominee for election to the Dorian board of directors. In addition, as of the date of this proxy statement, Mr. Schwarz and certain of his associates directly or indirectly beneficially own 141,850 Dorian Common Shares, as further described in Appendix II hereto, and therefore Mr. Schwarz has interests in the election of directors at the Annual Meeting and the transactions contemplated by the Revised Proposal as a beneficial owner of Dorian Common Shares.

        Except as disclosed in this proxy statement (including the Appendices attached hereto), none of the Participants or any of their respective associates have any substantial or material interest, direct or indirect, by security holdings or otherwise, in the election of directors at the Annual Meeting. The Participants do not know of any other matters to be presented for approval by the shareholders of Dorian at the Annual Meeting.

        With respect to arrangements or understandings any Participant or any of its associates has with any person with respect to any future transactions to which Dorian or any of its affiliates will or may be a party, BW has entered into certain customary engagement letters and/or related agreements or understandings with its advisors entered into in connection with the proposed combination of Dorian and BW LPG and the nomination of the Independent Nominees. Further, informal arrangements and understandings exist among the Foundation, BW Group, BW Euroholdings, BW LPG and BW LPG

Holding with respect to their collective support of the proposed combination of Dorian and BW LPG and the nomination of the Independent Nominees. BW LPG Holding has also entered into the Nomination Agreements described above.

        Other than as disclosed in this proxy statement, there are no agreements, arrangements or understandings between any Participant (including any Independent Nominee) or any other person in connection with the nomination of the Independent Nominees.

VOTING AND PROXY PROCEDURES

        If your Dorian Common Shares are registered in your own name, the accompanying WHITE proxy card will be voted in accordance with your instructions. You may submit a proxy in favor of the election of the Independent Nominees by Internet up until 11:59 pm Eastern Time the day before the Annual Meeting, by telephone up until 11:59 pm Eastern Time the day before the Annual Meeting, or by simply signing, dating and returning the enclosed WHITE proxy card in the postage-paid envelope provided. You may direct your shares to be voted FOR all of the INDEPENDENT NOMINEES by marking the box titled "FOR ALL NOMINEES" under Proposal I on the enclosed WHITE proxy card and signing, dating and returning it in the accompanying postage-paid envelope. You may withhold your vote for all of the Independent Nominees by marking the box titled "WITHHOLD FOR ALL NOMINEES" under Proposal I on the enclosed WHITE proxy card and signing, dating and returning it in the accompanying postage-paid envelope. You may withhold your vote from any one or more of the Independent Nominees by marking the box titled "FOR ALL NOMINEES, WITH EXCEPTIONS" under Proposal I and writing down the name of any such Independent Nominee for whom you are withholding your vote in the space provided on the enclosed WHITE proxy card and signing, dating and returning it in the accompanying postage-paid envelope. You may also submit a proxy by Internet or by telephone by following the instructions set forth in the enclosed WHITE proxy card. If your WHITE proxy card is signed and dated but no direction is given with respect to the election of Independent Nominees, your shares will be voted FOR the election of each of the Independent Nominees.

        If your Dorian Common Shares are held in "street name" by a brokerage firm, bank or other nominee, you must follow the instructions set forth in the WHITE voting instruction form provided by your brokerage firm, bank or other nominee to instruct them how to vote your shares. BW recommends that you confirm in writing your instructions to the person responsible for your account and provide a copy of those instructions to BW (c/o MacKenzie Partners, Inc., 1407 Broadway, 27th Floor, New York, NY 10018), so that BW will be aware of all instructions given and can attempt to ensure that those instructions are followed.


BW STRONGLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE "FOR" THE ELECTION OF THE INDEPENDENT NOMINEES AT THE ANNUAL MEETING.

        As of the date of this proxy statement, BW does not know of any other matters to be presented for approval by Dorian's shareholders at the Annual Meeting. If, however, other matters are properly presented, but were not known a reasonable time prior to the mailing of the definitive proxy statement or are matters incidental to the conduct of the meeting, the persons named as proxies in the enclosed WHITE proxy card or WHITE voting instruction form will vote the shares represented thereby in accordance with their discretion pursuant to the authority granted in the proxy.

        Your vote is very important. If you do not plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we encourage you to read this proxy statement and sign and return your completed WHITE proxy card or WHITE voting instruction form prior to the Annual Meeting so that your shares will be represented and voted in accordance with your instructions. Even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting in person, we recommend that you authorize a proxy to vote your Dorian Common Shares in advance as described above so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to attend the Annual Meeting. If your shares are held by a brokerage firm, bank or other nominee, you may vote your shares in person at the meeting only if you obtain a "legal" proxy from your brokerage firm, bank or other nominee.

REVOCATION OF PROXIES

        A shareholder of record may revoke or change his or her proxy instructions, including proxies already given to Dorian, at any time prior to the vote at the Annual Meeting by:

        BW requests that a copy of any revocation delivered to Dorian be mailed to MacKenzie at the address listed above, so that BW will be aware of all revocations and can more accurately determine if and when the requisite proxies for the election of the Independent Nominees to the Dorian board of directors have been received.

        Please note that if your Dorian Common Shares are held in "street name" by a brokerage firm, bank or other nominee, you must follow the instructions set forth in the WHITE voting instruction form provided by your brokerage firm, bank or other nominee to revoke your earlier vote. Submitting a later-dated WHITE voting instruction form by Internet or telephone, or mailing a later-dated WHITE voting instruction form, will revoke a previously cast vote.

        BW or MacKenzie may contact Dorian shareholders, including those who have revoked their proxies, to solicit their vote FOR the Independent Nominees.


QUORUM AND VOTING

        According to publicly available information, Dorian's authorized capital stock consists of 500,000,000 shares, of which 450,000,000 are designated as common shares and 50,000,000 are designated as preferred shares. There were 55,228,723 Dorian Common Shares outstanding as of June 26, 2018, as reported in Dorian's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018. Each shareholder is entitled to one vote, in person or by proxy, for each Dorian Common Share standing in his, her or its name on the books of Dorian on the record date on any matter submitted to the shareholders at the Annual Meeting. Dorian has disclosed that the Dorian

24


Table of Contents

board of directors set the record date for the Annual Meeting as [·], 2018. Only shareholders of record as of the close of business on the record date will be entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. There is no cumulative voting in the election of Dorian directors. Beneficial owners of Dorian Common Shares who are not shareholders of record may cause their Dorian Common Shares to be voted at the Annual Meeting by following the instructions specified in the WHITE voting instruction form.

        The presence, in person or by proxy, of the holders of record of Dorian Common Shares entitled to cast at least one-third of the total number of votes eligible to be cast by holders of the Dorian Common Shares issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting as of the close of business on the record date will constitute a quorum. Your shares will be counted towards the quorum only if you submit a valid proxy (or one is submitted on your behalf by your brokerage firm, bank or other nominee) or if you vote in person at the meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted towards the quorum requirement. "Broker non-votes" are shares held by a broker that are represented at a meeting of shareholders, but with respect to which brokers are prohibited from exercising voting authority with respect to non-routine matters, such as the election of directors, because the broker has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner and the broker lacks discretionary authority to vote the shares.

        Directors will be elected by a plurality of the votes present at the Annual Meeting or by proxy and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. The three nominees receiving the most "FOR" votes (among votes properly cast in person or by proxy) will be elected. These three nominees will serve as the Class II directors on the Dorian board of directors. Abstentions and broker non-votes will not be considered to be votes cast for the election of directors and therefore will have no effect on the outcome of the election of directors.

        As of the date of this proxy statement, the 100 Dorian Common Shares beneficially owned by BW LPG Holding and the 7,826,460 Dorian Common Shares beneficially owned by BW Euroholdings together represent approximately 14.2% of the Dorian Common Shares outstanding. Each of BW LPG Holding and BW Euroholdings beneficially owned all of its Dorian Common Shares on the record date and intends to vote or cause such Dorian Common Shares to be voted FOR the election of the Independent Nominees.

        Other than the election of directors, we do not know of any other matters to be presented for approval by the shareholders of Dorian at the Annual Meeting. If, however, other matters are properly presented that (i) we did not know, within a reasonable time before our solicitation, were to be presented at the Annual Meeting or (ii) are matters incident to the conduct of the meeting, the persons named in the enclosed WHITE proxy card or WHITE voting instruction form will vote the Dorian Common Shares represented thereby in accordance with their best judgment in relation to such additional business pursuant to the discretionary authority granted in the proxy.

        Your vote is extremely important. We urge you to mark, sign, date and return the enclosed WHITE proxy card or WHITE voting instruction form to vote FOR the election of the Independent Nominees.


SOLICITATION OF PROXIES

        This proxy solicitation is being made by BW LPG, BW LPG Holding, BW Euroholdings and the Independent Nominees. Proxies may be solicited by mail, courier services, advertising, publications of general distribution, telephone, Internet, facsimile or other electronic means or in person. Solicitation may also be made by the other Participants, none of whom will receive special or additional compensation in connection with such solicitation.

        BW LPG has retained MacKenzie for solicitation and advisory services in connection with this proxy solicitation. MacKenzie will solicit proxies from brokerage firms, banks, other nominees and other institutional holders. It is anticipated that MacKenzie will employ approximately [·] persons to solicit proxies from shareholders of Dorian for the Annual Meeting. For these services, MacKenzie is to receive a fee of up to approximately $[·], plus reimbursement for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses. BW LPG has agreed to indemnify MacKenzie against certain liabilities and expenses, including certain liabilities under the federal securities laws. The business address of each MacKenzie employee would be the same as that of his or her respective employer. Although no precise estimate can be made at the present time, the total expenditures by BW in furtherance of, or in connection with, the solicitation of Dorian's shareholders is estimated to be $[·]. As of the date of this proxy statement, BW has incurred approximately $[·] of total expenditures in furtherance of, or in connection with, the solicitation of Dorian shareholders.

        None of the other Participants has individually retained any person to provide proxy solicitation or advisory services in connection with this proxy solicitation.

        We will request brokerage firms, banks and other nominees and fiduciaries to forward all materials related to this proxy solicitation to the beneficial owners of Dorian Common Shares held of record. BW may reimburse these record holders for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in so doing.

        BW will bear all expenses related to any solicitation of proxies by BW and will not seek reimbursement of these costs from Dorian.


DEADLINE FOR SUBMITTING SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS AND DIRECTOR NOMINATIONS FOR THE NEXT ANNUAL MEETING

        Shareholder proposals intended to be included in Dorian's proxy statement and voted on at Dorian's 2019 Annual Meeting of Shareholders must be received at Dorian's corporate headquarters at Dorian LPG Ltd., c/o Dorian LPG (USA) LLC, 27 Signal Road, Stamford, CT 06902, attention: Secretary, on or before [·], 2019. Applicable SEC rules and regulations as well as the Dorian Bylaws govern the submission of shareholder proposals, including director nominations, and Dorian's consideration of them for inclusion in Dorian's 2019 notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders and Dorian's 2019 proxy statement.

        To bring before the 2019 Annual Meeting of Shareholders any business not included in the meeting's proxy statement (including to nominate a candidate director not named in the proxy statement), a shareholder must (i) give timely written notice of that business to Dorian's Secretary and (ii) qualify as a shareholder of record both on the date the shareholder supplies notice and through the record date for the 2019 Annual Meeting. To be timely, the notice must be delivered to or mailed and received by Dorian no earlier than [·], 2019 (90 days prior to [·], 2019, the one-year anniversary of the Annual Meeting) and no later than [·], 2019 (60 days prior to [·], 2019). The public disclosure of any adjournment of an annual meeting of the shareholders will not extend the time period allotted to shareholders to give notice. Where the shareholder wishes to nominate a candidate for director, the written notice must contain the information concerning the shareholder and each nominee as required by Article III, Section 3 of the Dorian Bylaws, which is discussed in the 2017 Dorian Proxy Statement at "Board Meeting and Board Committee Information—Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and Director Nominations." For all other proposals, the shareholder's written notice must include the information set forth in Article II, Section 2 of the Dorian Bylaws.

        The foregoing bylaw provisions do not affect a shareholder's ability to request inclusion of a proposal in Dorian's proxy statement within the procedures and deadlines set forth in Rule 14a-8 of the SEC's proxy rules as referenced above. A proxy may confer discretionary authority to vote on any matter at a meeting if Dorian does not receive notice of the matter within the time frames described in

26


Table of Contents

the paragraph above. The officer presiding at the meeting may exclude matters that are not properly presented in accordance with the applicable SEC rules and regulations and the Dorian Bylaws.


APPRAISAL RIGHTS

        No appraisal rights or similar dissenter's rights are available in connection with this proxy solicitation. In addition, shareholders will not have rights of appraisal or similar dissenter's rights with respect to any matter to be acted upon at the Annual Meeting.


SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS, DIRECTORS AND MANAGEMENT OF DORIAN

        We intend to incorporate by reference certain information regarding the security ownership of certain beneficial owners, directors and management of Dorian that is expected to be contained in the Dorian proxy statement for the Annual Meeting that will be filed by Dorian with the SEC. Dorian has not yet publicly filed the definitive Dorian proxy statement for the Annual Meeting with the SEC. Once Dorian publicly files such definitive proxy statement, BW will supplement this proxy statement to include any relevant additional or revised information from such proxy statement and file revised proxy materials with the SEC.


FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

        This proxy statement includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements relating to the solicitation of proxies of Dorian's shareholders in connection with the nomination of the Independent Nominees and regarding BW LPG's proposed business combination transaction with Dorian (including the benefits, results, effects and timing of a transaction), all statements regarding BW LPG's (and BW LPG's and Dorian's combined) expected future financial position, results of operations, cash flows, financing plans, business strategy, budgets, capital expenditures, competitive positions, growth opportunities, plans and objectives of management, and statements containing the words such as "anticipate," "approximate," "believe," "plan," "estimate," "expect," "project," "could," "would," "should," "will," "intend," "may," "potential," "upside," and other similar expressions.

        Statements in this proxy statement concerning the business outlook or future economic performance, anticipated profitability, revenues, expenses or other financial items, and product or services line growth of BW LPG (and the combined businesses of BW LPG and Dorian), together with other statements that are not historical facts, are forward-looking statements that are estimates reflecting the best judgment of BW LPG based upon currently available information. Such forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain, and shareholders and other potential investors must recognize that actual results may differ materially from BW LPG's expectations as a result of a variety of factors, including, without limitation, those discussed below. The forward-looking statements in this proxy statement are based upon various assumptions, many of which are based, in turn, upon further assumptions, including without limitation, management's examination of historical operating trends, data contained in BW LPG's records and other data available from unrelated parties.

        Such forward-looking statements are based upon management's current expectations and include known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which BW LPG is unable to predict or control, that may cause BW LPG's actual results, performance or plans with respect to Dorian to differ materially from any future results, performance or plans expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These statements involve risks, uncertainties and other factors discussed below and detailed from time to time in BW LPG's filings with the Oslo Bors contained on BW LPG's website.

27


Table of Contents

        Risks and uncertainties related to the proposed transaction with Dorian include, but are not limited to, uncertainty as to whether BW LPG will further pursue, enter into or consummate the transaction on the terms set forth in the proposal or on other terms, potential adverse reactions or changes to business relationships resulting from the announcement or completion of the transaction, uncertainties as to the timing of the transaction, adverse effects on BW LPG's stock price resulting from the announcement or consummation of the transaction or any failure to complete the transaction, competitive responses to the announcement or consummation of the transaction, the risk that regulatory or other approvals required for the consummation of the transaction are not obtained or are obtained subject to terms and conditions that are not anticipated, costs and difficulties related to the integration of Dorian's businesses and operations with BW LPG's businesses and operations, the inability to obtain, or delays in obtaining, cost savings and synergies from the transaction, unexpected costs, liabilities, charges or expenses resulting from the transaction, litigation relating to the transaction, the inability to retain key personnel, and any changes in general economic and/or industry specific conditions.

        Many of these factors are beyond BW LPG's control. BW LPG cautions investors that any forward-looking statements made by BW LPG are not guarantees of future performance. BW LPG disclaims any obligation to update any such factors or to announce publicly the results of any revisions to any of the forward-looking statements to reflect future events or developments.


ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

        Certain information regarding the compensation of directors and executive officers and certain other matters regarding Dorian's officers and directors as well as certain other information regarding the Annual Meeting will be contained in Dorian's proxy statement for the Annual Meeting. BW does not make any representation as to the accuracy or completeness of the information that will be contained in Dorian's proxy statement for the Annual Meeting.

        Some banks, brokers and other nominee record holders may be participating in the practice of "householding" proxy statements and annual reports. This means that only one copy of this proxy statement may have been sent to multiple Dorian shareholders in your household. We will promptly deliver a separate copy of the document to you if you write or call our proxy solicitor, MacKenzie Partners, Inc., 1407 Broadway, 27th Floor, New York, NY 10018. Stockholders may call toll-free at (800) 322-2885. Banks and brokers may call collect at (212) 929-5500.

If BW determines to proceed, it expects that it would solicit proxies for the election of one or more nominees (together with the Nominee, the "Nominees") as directors of Dorian (collectively, the "Proxy Contest") at the 2018 annual stockholders' meeting of Dorian or any postponements or adjournments thereof (the "Annual Meeting").

        A.    Responsibilities of Nominee.    

        (a)   You agree (i) to be named as a Nominee in any and all materials prepared by BW in connection with the Proxy Contest, (ii) to provide true and complete information concerning, among other things, your ownership of securities of Dorian and BW and your background, experience, abilities and integrity, as may be reasonably requested from time to time by BW (including, without limitation, (A) all information provided in connection with any directors and officers questionnaire or other information request list (any such questionnaire or request, a "Questionnaire") submitted by you or BW to Dorian in connection with the Proxy Contest and (B) all information required under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (collectively, the "Exchange Act") to be disclosed in any proxy statement, consent solicitation statement or other materials prepared by BW in connection with the Proxy Contest (collectively, the "Proxy Materials")), and not to omit information that is material, (iii) that your agreement to be a Nominee, and the information referred to in clause (ii) of this paragraph (a) may be disclosed by BW in the Proxy Materials or as otherwise required by applicable law, and (iv) if elected, to serve as a director of Dorian, and in that capacity to act in the best interests of Dorian and its stockholders and to exercise your independent judgment in accordance with your fiduciary duties in all matters that come before the Board. You represent that the information supplied to BW in any completed Questionnaire, in your response to any follow-up questions from BW and any related supplement provided by you (together, the "Nominee Information") relating to your being a Nominee is true and complete and does not omit information that may be material. You agree that you will promptly provide BW with (x) any updates to (1) the information you have previously supplied to BW in order to satisfy your obligation under clause (a)(ii) of this Section A and (2) your representations and other information in the Nominee Information, and (y) such additional information as may reasonably be requested by BW in connection with your nomination for election to the Board.

        B.    Responsibilities of BW.    Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, BW is not obligated to nominate you to the Board or to commence or take any other action with respect to the Proxy Contest.

        C.    Compensation.    You shall not be entitled to any compensation from BW or any of its affiliates in connection with your service as a Nominee. You agree that if you are elected as a director of Dorian, you shall seek compensation, if any, for acting in such capacity solely from Dorian.

        D.    Expenses.    BW LPG agrees that for the period starting from the date of this Agreement and ending at the earlier of (x) your election to the Board (or if the election or qualification of members to the Board is contested on any grounds, such later date that such contest is resolved) and (y) the date you have been notified by BW that it will not commence the Proxy Contest or has abandoned the Proxy Contest or will not nominate you to the Board or has abandoned your nomination to the Board or that the requisite number of votes for your election to the Board has not been obtained (such period, the "Restricted Period"), BW LPG will (i) promptly reimburse you for all reasonable and documented, out-of-pocket expenses (including travel and lodging) incurred in the performance of your responsibilities as a Nominee, and (ii) directly pay for the reasonable legal fees and expenses incurred by one independent legal counsel selected collectively by and acting on behalf of all Nominees proposed by BW for election as independent directors of Dorian (the "Independent Counsel"). The foregoing right to reimbursement and payment shall be in addition to your rights of indemnification set forth in this Agreement.

        E.    Indemnification.    

        (a)   As a material inducement to you to become a Nominee, BW LPG hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless you from and against any and all losses, claims and other costs and expenses, including, without limitation, all damages, liabilities, judgments, amounts paid or payable in settlement and other expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and costs of investigation) (collectively, "Losses"), to which you may become subject or which you may incur in connection with being made, or threatened with being made, a party or witness (or in any other capacity) to any proceeding at law or in equity or before any governmental agency or board or any other body whatsoever (whether arbitral, civil, criminal, trial, appeal, administrative, formal, informal, investigative or other), to the extent arising out of the Proxy Contest or your being a Nominee (an "Action"), except to the extent that such Loss arises or results from a final determination by a court of competent jurisdiction of your willful misconduct or any untrue statement or omission made by you or made by BW in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished by you expressly for use in the Proxy Materials, other filings that may be made in connection with the Proxy Contest, and any submissions of information that may be made in connection with the Proxy Context the public; it being understood that you are furnishing the Nominee Information, and any other information provided by you that is described in clause (a) of Section A, expressly for use in the Proxy Materials, other filings that may be made in connection with the Proxy Contest, and any submissions of information that may be made in connection with the Proxy Contest.

        (b)   In the event of the commencement or threatened commencement of any Action in respect of which you may seek indemnification from BW LPG hereunder, you will give prompt written notice thereof to BW LPG; provided that the failure to so provide prompt notice shall not relieve BW LPG of its indemnification obligations hereunder except to the extent that BW LPG is materially prejudiced as a result thereof. BW LPG shall timely pay all fees and disbursements of the Independent Counsel for its representation of you and the other Nominees in respect of such Action; however, you shall have the right to retain separate counsel, provided, that you shall be responsible for the fees of such counsel and costs of such participation unless either (i) you and BW LPG mutually agree in writing to the retention of such counsel, or (ii) representation of you and other Nominees by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to a conflict of interest between you and them. BW LPG shall in no event be

liable for any settlement by you of any such Action effected without the prior written consent of BW LPG, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

        (c)   BW LPG shall not settle, without your prior written consent, any Action in any manner that would impose any penalty, obligation or limitation on you (other than monetary damages for which BW LPG agrees to be wholly responsible) or that would contain an acknowledgement of wrongdoing on your part.

        (d)   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, if BW LPG has made payments to you pursuant to the indemnification provisions hereof and you subsequently are reimbursed by a third party therefor, you will remit such subsequent reimbursement to BW LPG.

        (e)   For the avoidance of doubt, your right of indemnification pursuant to this Section E shall continue after the Annual Meeting has taken place but only for events that occurred prior to the Annual Meeting and subsequent to the date hereof.

        F.    General.    Notices and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and delivered by an internationally-recognized expedited delivery courier with tracking capability, if mailed to you, then to the address set forth above under your name, and, if mailed to BW, then to the address indicated above in the letterhead. The failure of a party to insist upon strict adherence to any term contained herein shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such party's rights thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or to any other term contained herein. In the event that any one or more provisions of this Agreement are deemed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then such provision(s) shall be deemed severed to the least extent possible without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement. This Agreement (i) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to any conflict of laws principles that would result in the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction; (ii) contains the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter contained herein and may not be modified or amended except by mutual written consent; (iii) shall not be assignable, in whole or in part, by either party without the prior written consent of the other party, except that BW may, in its sole discretion, assign any or all of its rights, interests or obligations hereunder to Dorian; (iv) shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties and their respective heirs, representatives, successors, and assigns; and (v) may be executed in counterparts and delivered by facsimile signatures.
