EXPLANATORY NOTE
DEREGISTRATION OF UNSOLD SECURITIES
Grindrod Shipping Holdings Ltd.
(the “Company”), a public company incorporated in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Singapore, is filing
this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 (the “Amendment”) to the following registration statements on Form S-8 (each, a
“Registration Statement” and, collectively, the “Registration Statements”), previously filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to terminate all offerings and deregister any and all securities,
registered but unsold or otherwise unissued as of the date hereof under the Registration Statements:
| · | Registration Statement No. 333-236168, filed with the SEC on January 30, 2020, registering the sale, pursuant
to the Company’s 2018 Forfeitable Share Plan, of 953,191 ordinary shares, no par value (“Ordinary Shares”) of
the Company; and |
| · | Registration Statement No. 333-263494, filed with the SEC on March 11, 2022, registering the sale, pursuant
to the Company’s 2018 Forfeitable Share Plan, of 1,931,002 Ordinary Shares. |
For ease of reference, all share
numbers above are as stated in the original Registration Statement, without giving pro forma effect to any adjustments, as applicable,
for any subsequent events such as stock splits occurring after the original filing date of the Registration Statement.
On June 20, 2024, at an extraordinary
general meeting of the Company’s shareholders, the Company’s shareholders approved a selective capital reduction (“SCR”),
pursuant to Section 78G of the Companies Act 1967 of Singapore, which is expected to become effective in the third quarter of calendar
year 2024 and in which the Company would cancel all the Ordinary Shares other than the Ordinary Shares held by the Company’s majority
shareholder, Good Falkirk (MI) Limited (“GF”), a wholly-owned Subsidiary of Taylor Maritime Investments Limited, resulting
in GF owning 100% of the Ordinary Shares of the Company.
In connection with the SCR, the
Company has terminated any and all offerings of its securities pursuant to the Registration Statements. In accordance with the undertaking
made by the Company in Part II, Item 9(a)(3) of each of the Registration Statements to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective
amendment, any of the securities that had been registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Company hereby removes
from registration any and all securities registered but unsold or otherwise unissued under the Registration Statements as of the date
hereof, and terminates the effectiveness of the Registration Statements. After giving effect to this Amendment, there will be no remaining
securities registered by the Company pursuant to the Registration Statements.

of 1933, as amended, the Registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing
on Form S-8 and has duly caused these Post-Effective Amendments to the Registration Statements to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned,
