<p><strong>亲爱的股东和投资者，</strong></p>
<p>我很高兴地披露，作为 NAT 的创始人、董事长兼首席执行官，我今天以每股 3.50 美元购买了 200,000 股，使我的总持股量达到 5,300,000 股。</p>
<p>与此同时，我的儿子亚历山大·汉森，NAT 的副董事长也以每股 3.50 美元购买了 200,000 股，使他的持股量达到 5,350,000 股。</p>
<p>此次交易后，我们家族共持有 10,650,000 股，已超过 5% 的门槛，因此需要向市场进行此项强制通知。</p>
<p>与以往一样，汉森家族是公司最大的私人股东集团。</p>
<p>自 1995 年上市以来，NAT 已连续 113 个季度支付股息。</p>
<p>我们集团的前景良好。</p>

<p><strong>关于前瞻性声明的警示性声明</strong></p>
<p>本新闻稿中讨论的事项可能构成前瞻性声明。1995 年《私人证券诉讼改革法》为前瞻性声明提供了安全港保护，以鼓励公司提供有关其业务的前瞻性信息。前瞻性声明包括有关计划、目标、策略、未来事件或表现的声明，以及基本假设和其他非历史事实的声明。</p>
<p>公司希望利用 1995 年《私人证券诉讼改革法》的安全港条款，并在此安全港立法中包含此警示性声明。词语 “相信”、“预期”、“打算”、“估计”、“预测”、“计划”、“潜在”、“将”、“可能”、“应该”、“期望”、“待定” 和类似表达识别前瞻性声明。</p>
<p>本新闻稿中的前瞻性声明基于各种假设，其中许多又基于进一步的假设，包括但不限于我们管理层对历史运营趋势的审查、我们记录中的数据以及来自第三方的其他可用数据。尽管我们相信这些假设在做出时是合理的，但由于这些假设本质上受到重大不确定性和不可预测的偶然事件的影响，并且超出了我们的控制范围，我们无法保证能够实现这些期望、信念或预测。我们没有义务更新任何前瞻性声明，无论是由于新信息、未来事件还是其他原因。</p>
<p>在我们看来，可能导致实际结果与前瞻性声明中讨论的结果显著不同的重要因素包括世界经济和货币的强度、一般市场条件，包括租船费和船舶价值的波动、由于 OPEC 的石油生产水平和全球石油消费及储存的变化而导致的油轮市场需求变化、我们的运营费用变化，包括燃料价格、干船坞和保险费用、我们船舶的市场、融资和再融资的可用性、政府规则和法规的变化或监管机构采取的行动、潜在的待决或未来诉讼的责任、一般国内和国际政治条件、由于事故或政治事件导致的航运路线潜在中断、船舶故障和停租事件，以及公司不时向证券交易委员会提交的报告中描述的其他重要因素，包括招股说明书及相关招股说明书补充、我们的 20-F 表年度报告以及我们的 6-K 表报告。</p>

<div class="lb-trans"><p><strong>关于前瞻性声明的警示性声明</strong></p>
</div><p>Matters discussed in this press release may constitute forward-looking statements. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides safe harbor protections for forward-looking statements in order to encourage companies to provide prospective information about their business. Forward-looking statements include statements concerning plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events or performance, and underlying assumptions and other statements, which are other than statements of historical facts.</p>

</div><p>The Company desires to take advantage of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and is including this cautionary statement in connection with this safe harbor legislation. The words “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “project,” “plan,” “potential,” “will,” “may,” “should,” “expect,” “pending” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements.</p>

</div><p>The forward-looking statements in this press release are based upon various assumptions, many of which are based, in turn, upon further assumptions, including without limitation, our management’s examination of historical operating trends, data contained in our records and other data available from third parties. Although we believe that these assumptions were reasonable when made, because these assumptions are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies which are difficult or impossible to predict and are beyond our control, we cannot assure you that we will achieve or accomplish these expectations, beliefs or projections. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.</p>

</div><p>Important factors that, in our view, could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements include the strength of world economies and currencies, general market conditions, including fluctuations in charter rates and vessel values, changes in demand in the tanker market, as a result of changes in OPEC’s petroleum production levels and worldwide oil consumption and storage, changes in our operating expenses, including bunker prices, drydocking and insurance costs, the market for our vessels, availability of financing and refinancing, changes in governmental rules and regulations or actions taken by regulatory authorities, potential liability from pending or future litigation, general domestic and international political conditions, potential disruption of shipping routes due to accidents or political events, vessels breakdowns and instances of off-hires and other important factors described from time to time in the reports filed by the Company with</p>
