started on a positive note, and for the first six months of the year the rates, as reported on the Clarksons Modern Suezmax Tanker Index (&#147;CMSTI&#148;), were $35,808 per day. This is down from $52,398 for the first six months of 2015, but still
at very profitable levels for most operators in the sector. Rates fell throughout the second quarter of 2016, and the last registered CMSTI as of June&nbsp;30, 2016 was $23,602 per day. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As earnings in the sector declined, the same happened with vessel values with prices for a five year old Suezmax, as reported by Clarksons, falling from $60

entered into a $430 million revolving credit facility with a syndicate of lenders in order to refinance its existing credit facility, fund future vessel acquisitions and for general corporate purposes (the &#147;Credit Facility&#148;). Effective
January 2016 the Company and the lenders agreed to increase the facility to $500 million. The new credit facility matures in December 2020. Amounts borrowed under the Credit Facility bear interest at an annual rate equal to LIBOR plus a margin and
the Company pays a commitment fee, which is a percentage of the applicable margin, on any undrawn amounts. There are no mandatory repayments of principal during the term of the Credit Facility, and we pay interest only on drawn amounts and
commitment fee on undrawn amounts. The Company had $385.0 million and $330.0 million outstanding as of June&nbsp;30 2016 and December&nbsp;31, 2015, respectively. The Company was in compliance with its loan covenants under the Credit Facility as of

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The decline in voyage revenues of 14.8% was caused by a decrease in the rates obtained in the market (for further
information see &#147;The Tanker Market 2016&#148; above). This was offset by an increased number of revenue days due to an increase in the number of vessels in our fleet. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Voyage expenses decreased by 34%. The decrease was primarily caused by a decrease in bunker costs and port charges. Bunker prices correlate to the average
price for crude oil which decreased by 29% from the six months ended June&nbsp;30, 2015 compared to the six months ended June&nbsp;30, 2016. The port charges were reduced as a result of more of our vessels being on short-term time-charter contracts
for storage in 2016. The decrease in cost was offset by the increase of number of vessels in our fleet. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Vessel operating expenses increased by 11.8%. The
increase is primarily due to the increase in the number of vessels in our fleet. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">General and administrative expenses increased by 47.1%. This is
primarily due to non-cash items increasing to $2.3 million for the six months ended June&nbsp;30, 2016 from $0.4 million for the six months ended June&nbsp;30, 2015. Non-cash items consist of recognition of costs related to deferred compensation
liabilities and accounting for share-based compensation. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Depreciation expenses increased by 6.4%. The increase was primarily due to the expansion of our
fleet. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Interest expense decreased by 8.3%. The decrease is due to an increase in interest expenses being capitalized to $0.9 million for the six months

drawn on the Credit Facility through 2016. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Equity loss increased by 521.1%. The losses relate to the investment in Nordic American Offshore Ltd

operating activities increased to $104.5 million for the six months ended June&nbsp;30, 2016 from $94.1 million for the six months ended June&nbsp;30, 2015. The increase in cash provided by operating activities is due to an increase in cash received

increased to ($83.0) million for the six months ended June&nbsp;30, 2016 from ($35.8) million for the six months ended June&nbsp;30, 2015. The increase in cash flows used in investing activities is primarily due to an increase in investments in

million for the six months ended June&nbsp;30, 2015. The decrease is due to proceeds from use of the Credit Facility, which is offset by an increase in dividends paid. </P>

Suezmax vessel Gulf Scandic (now named Nordic Harrier) have finished. Gulf Navigation Holding PJSC (GulfNav) was the other party in the arbitration. The case relates to the 6 year bareboat charter with GulfNav of the Gulf Scandic covering the period
2004 to 2010. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">When the vessel was redelivered to the Company by the charterer in October 2010, it was in very poor technical condition. The vessel had
not been operated according to sound maintenance practices by the charterer. The Company had the vessel repaired in the autumn of 2010 and spring of 2011, and made a claim against GulfNav for costs incurred. A London arbitration panel ruled in favor
of NAT at the end of January 2014 and awarded the Company $10.2 million plus direct costs and calculated interest. </P>

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,

Gulf Navigation Holding PJSC (GulfNav) was the other party in the arbitration. The case relates to the 6 year bareboat charter with GulfNav of the Gulf Scandic covering the period 2004 to 2010. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; margin-top: 12pt;"&gt;When the vessel was redelivered to the Company by the charterer in October 2010, it was in very poor technical condition. The vessel had not been operated according to sound maintenance practices by the charterer. The Company had the vessel repaired in the autumn of 2010 and spring of 2011, and made a claim against GulfNav for costs incurred. A London arbitration panel ruled in favor of NAT at the end of January 2014 and awarded the Company $10.2 million plus direct costs and calculated interest. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; margin-top: 0pt;"&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; margin-top: 0pt;"&gt;The arbitration matter with Gulf Navigation was settled in September 2016. In addition to the amount received, the Company made reversal of other related accruals which will have a positive accounting impact of approximately $5.3 million in total. The settlement will be recognized in the Statements of Operations in September when it was received. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; font-weight: bold; margin-top: 18pt;"&gt;Legal Proceedings and Claims &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; margin-top: 6pt;"&gt;The Company may become a party to various legal proceedings generally incidental to its business and is subject to a variety of environmental and pollution control laws and regulations. As is the case with other companies in similar industries, the Company faces exposure from actual or potential claims and legal proceedings. Although the ultimate disposition of legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, it is the opinion of the Company&amp;#8217;s management that the outcome of any claim which might be pending or threatened, either individually or on a combined basis, will not have a materially adverse effect on the financial position of the Company, but could materially affect the Company&amp;#8217;s results of operations in a given year. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman;"&gt;No claims have been filed against the Company for the six months ended June&amp;#160;30, 2016 or the fiscal year 2015, and the Company has not been a party to any legal proceedings for the six months ended June&amp;#160;30, 2016 or the year ended December&amp;#160;31, 2015. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:CommitmentsAndContingenciesDisclosureTextBlock>

LONG-TERM DEBT &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; margin-top: 6pt;"&gt;On October&amp;#160;26, 2012, the Company entered into a $430 million revolving credit facility with a syndicate of lenders in order to refinance its existing credit facility, fund future vessel acquisitions and for general corporate purposes (the &amp;#8220;Credit Facility&amp;#8221;). Effective January 2016 the Company and the lenders agreed to increase the facility to $500 million and to extend its maturity to December 2020. Amounts borrowed under the Credit Facility bear interest at an annual rate equal to LIBOR plus a margin and the Company pays a commitment fee, which is a percentage of the applicable margin, on any undrawn amounts. There are no mandatory repayments of principal during the term of the Credit Facility. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; margin-top: 12pt;"&gt;In connection with the expansion of the Credit Facility in 2015 the Company incurred $4.6 million in deferred financing costs. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; margin-top: 12pt;"&gt;Borrowings under the Credit Facility are secured by first priority mortgages over the Company&amp;#8217;s vessels and assignments of earnings and insurance. Under the Credit Facility; the Company is subject to certain covenants requiring among other things the maintenance of (i)&amp;#160;a minimum amount of equity (ii)&amp;#160;a minimum equity ratio, (iii)&amp;#160;a minimum level of liquidity (iv)&amp;#160;a positive working capital (v)&amp;#160;a minimum market capitalization and (vi)&amp;#160;a minimum market capitalization to total assets ratio. The Credit Facility also includes customary events of default including non-payment, breach of covenants, insolvency, cross default and material adverse change. The Company is permitted to pay dividends in accordance with its dividend policy as long as it is not in default under the Credit Facility. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; margin-top: 12pt;"&gt;The Company had $385.0 million and $330.0 million outstanding as of June&amp;#160;30, 2016 and December&amp;#160;31, 2015, respectively. Presented Long-term Debt in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets of $380.2 million and $324.6 million as of June&amp;#160;30, 2016 and December&amp;#160;31, 2015, respectively, is net of unamortized deferred financing costs. The Company was in compliance with its loan covenants under the Credit Facility as of June&amp;#160;30, 2016 and December&amp;#160;31, 2015. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman;"&gt;The estimated fair value for the long term debt is considered to be approximately equal to the carrying value since it bears a variable interest rate. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:LongTermDebtTextBlock>

The FASB has deferred the effective date of this ASU for reporting periods beginning after December&amp;#160;15, 2017. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this standard, if any, on its consolidated statements and related disclosures. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; margin-top: 12pt;"&gt;In July 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11,&lt;i&gt;&amp;#160;Inventory (Topic 330) &amp;#8211; Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory&lt;/i&gt;,&amp;#160;which requires an entity to measure inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The amendments in the Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December&amp;#160;15, 2016. The adoption is not expected to have material impact on the consolidated financial statements. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; margin-top: 12pt;"&gt;In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15,&lt;i&gt;&amp;#160;Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity&amp;#8217;s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern&lt;/i&gt;,&amp;#160;which provides new authoritative guidance regarding management&amp;#8217;s responsibility to assess an entity&amp;#8217;s ability to continue as a going concern, and to provide related footnote disclosures in certain circumstances. The standard is effective for annual periods ending after December&amp;#160;15, 2016 and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December&amp;#160;15, 2016. The adoption is not expected to have material impact on the consolidated financial statements. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman;"&gt;In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, &lt;i&gt;Leases&lt;/i&gt;, which provides new authoritative guidance on the requirements for lessees to recognize most leases on-balance sheet, lessor accounting remains substantially similar to current U.S. GAAP. The standard is effective for annual periods in fiscal years beginning after December&amp;#160;15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for annual or interim reporting periods for which the financial statements have not previously been issued. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this standard if any, on its consolidated statements and related disclosures. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:NewAccountingPronouncementsPolicyPolicyTextBlock>

This has also been applied retrospectively to the comparative balance sheets as of December&amp;#160;31, 2015. For the Balance Sheets as of December&amp;#160;31, 2015 the effects of the application are a reduction of Long-term Debt from $330.0 million to $324.6 million and a reduction in Other Non-Current Assets from $15.9 million to $10.5 million. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; margin-top: 12pt;"&gt;No other new accounting policies have been adopted since December&amp;#160;31, 2015. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Recent account pronouncements: &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; margin-top: 6pt;"&gt;In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09,&lt;i&gt;&amp;#160;Revenue from Contracts with Customers&lt;/i&gt;,&amp;#160;which provides new authoritative guidance on the methods of revenue recognition and related disclosure requirements. The FASB has deferred the effective date of this ASU for reporting periods beginning after December&amp;#160;15, 2017. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this standard, if any, on its consolidated statements and related disclosures. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; margin-top: 12pt;"&gt;In July 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11,&lt;i&gt;&amp;#160;Inventory (Topic 330) &amp;#8211; Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory&lt;/i&gt;,&amp;#160;which requires an entity to measure inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The amendments in the Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December&amp;#160;15, 2016. The adoption is not expected to have material impact on the consolidated financial statements. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; margin-top: 12pt;"&gt;In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15,&lt;i&gt;&amp;#160;Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity&amp;#8217;s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern&lt;/i&gt;,&amp;#160;which provides new authoritative guidance regarding management&amp;#8217;s responsibility to assess an entity&amp;#8217;s ability to continue as a going concern, and to provide related footnote disclosures in certain circumstances. The standard is effective for annual periods ending after December&amp;#160;15, 2016 and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December&amp;#160;15, 2016. The adoption is not expected to have material impact on the consolidated financial statements. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman;"&gt;In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, &lt;i&gt;Leases&lt;/i&gt;, which provides new authoritative guidance on the requirements for lessees to recognize most leases on-balance sheet, lessor accounting remains substantially similar to current U.S. GAAP. The standard is effective for annual periods in fiscal years beginning after December&amp;#160;15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for annual or interim reporting periods for which the financial statements have not previously been issued. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this standard if any, on its consolidated statements and related disclosures. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</us-gaap:SignificantAccountingPoliciesTextBlock>

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES </p><p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; margin-top: 6pt;">A summary of the Company&#8217;s significant accounting policies is identified in note 2 of the Company&#8217;s annual financial statements for the year ended December&#160;31, 2015 included in the Company&#8217;s Annual Report on Form 20-F. </p><p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; margin-top: 12pt;">Effective January&#160;1, 2016, the Company adopted ASU 2015-03, <i>Interest &#8211; Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30) &#8211; Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, </i>which required debt issuance costs to a recognized debt liability to be presented in the Balance Sheets as a direct deduction from the debt liability rather than an asset. This has also been applied retrospectively to the comparative balance sheets as of December&#160;31, 2015. For the Balance Sheets as of December&#160;31, 2015 the effects of the application are a reduction of Long-term Debt from $330.0 million to $324.6 million and a reduction in Other Non-Current Assets from $15.9 million to $10.5 million. </p><p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; margin-top: 12pt;">No other new accounting policies have been adopted since December&#160;31, 2015. </p><p style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">Recent account pronouncements: </p><p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; margin-top: 6pt;">In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09,<i>&#160;Revenue from Contracts with Customers</i>,&#160;which provides new authoritative guidance on the methods of revenue recognition and related disclosure requirements. The FASB has deferred the effective date of this ASU for reporting periods beginning after December&#160;15, 2017. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this standard, if any, on its consolidated statements and related disclosures. </p><p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; margin-top: 12pt;">In July 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11,<i>&#160;Inventory (Topic 330) &#8211; Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory</i>,&#160;which requires an entity to measure inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The amendments in the Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December&#160;15, 2016. The adoption is not expected to have material impact on the consolidated financial statements. </p><p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; margin-top: 12pt;">In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15,<i>&#160;Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity&#8217;s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern</i>,&#160;which provides new authoritative guidance regarding management&#8217;s responsibility to assess an entity&#8217;s ability to continue as a going concern, and to provide related footnote disclosures in certain circumstances. The standard is effective for annual periods ending after December&#160;15, 2016 and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December&#160;15, 2016. The adoption is not expected to have material impact on the consolidated financial statements. </p><p style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman;">In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, <i>Leases</i>, which provides new authoritative guidance on the requirements for lessees to recognize most leases on-balance sheet, lessor accounting remains substantially similar to current U.S. GAAP. The standard is effective for annual periods in fiscal years beginning after December&#160;15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for annual or interim reporting periods for which the financial statements have not previously been issued. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this standard if any, on its consolidated statements and related disclosures. </p></div><span></span>

LONG-TERM DEBT </p><p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; margin-top: 6pt;">On October&#160;26, 2012, the Company entered into a $430 million revolving credit facility with a syndicate of lenders in order to refinance its existing credit facility, fund future vessel acquisitions and for general corporate purposes (the &#8220;Credit Facility&#8221;). Effective January 2016 the Company and the lenders agreed to increase the facility to $500 million and to extend its maturity to December 2020. Amounts borrowed under the Credit Facility bear interest at an annual rate equal to LIBOR plus a margin and the Company pays a commitment fee, which is a percentage of the applicable margin, on any undrawn amounts. There are no mandatory repayments of principal during the term of the Credit Facility. </p><p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; margin-top: 12pt;">In connection with the expansion of the Credit Facility in 2015 the Company incurred $4.6 million in deferred financing costs. </p><p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; margin-top: 12pt;">Borrowings under the Credit Facility are secured by first priority mortgages over the Company&#8217;s vessels and assignments of earnings and insurance. Under the Credit Facility; the Company is subject to certain covenants requiring among other things the maintenance of (i)&#160;a minimum amount of equity (ii)&#160;a minimum equity ratio, (iii)&#160;a minimum level of liquidity (iv)&#160;a positive working capital (v)&#160;a minimum market capitalization and (vi)&#160;a minimum market capitalization to total assets ratio. The Credit Facility also includes customary events of default including non-payment, breach of covenants, insolvency, cross default and material adverse change. The Company is permitted to pay dividends in accordance with its dividend policy as long as it is not in default under the Credit Facility. </p><p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; margin-top: 12pt;">The Company had $385.0 million and $330.0 million outstanding as of June&#160;30, 2016 and December&#160;31, 2015, respectively. Presented Long-term Debt in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets of $380.2 million and $324.6 million as of June&#160;30, 2016 and December&#160;31, 2015, respectively, is net of unamortized deferred financing costs. The Company was in compliance with its loan covenants under the Credit Facility as of June&#160;30, 2016 and December&#160;31, 2015. </p><p style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman;">The estimated fair value for the long term debt is considered to be approximately equal to the carrying value since it bears a variable interest rate. </p></div><span></span>

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES </p><p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; font-weight: bold; margin-top: 6pt;">Nordic Harrier </p><p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; margin-top: 6pt;">The arbitration hearings involving the Suezmax vessel Gulf Scandic (now named Nordic Harrier) have finished. Gulf Navigation Holding PJSC (GulfNav) was the other party in the arbitration. The case relates to the 6 year bareboat charter with GulfNav of the Gulf Scandic covering the period 2004 to 2010. </p><p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; margin-top: 12pt;">When the vessel was redelivered to the Company by the charterer in October 2010, it was in very poor technical condition. The vessel had not been operated according to sound maintenance practices by the charterer. The Company had the vessel repaired in the autumn of 2010 and spring of 2011, and made a claim against GulfNav for costs incurred. A London arbitration panel ruled in favor of NAT at the end of January 2014 and awarded the Company $10.2 million plus direct costs and calculated interest. </p><p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; margin-top: 0pt;">&#160;</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; margin-top: 0pt;">The arbitration matter with Gulf Navigation was settled in September 2016. In addition to the amount received, the Company made reversal of other related accruals which will have a positive accounting impact of approximately $5.3 million in total. The settlement will be recognized in the Statements of Operations in September when it was received. </p><p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; font-weight: bold; margin-top: 18pt;">Legal Proceedings and Claims </p><p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman; margin-top: 6pt;">The Company may become a party to various legal proceedings generally incidental to its business and is subject to a variety of environmental and pollution control laws and regulations. As is the case with other companies in similar industries, the Company faces exposure from actual or potential claims and legal proceedings. Although the ultimate disposition of legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, it is the opinion of the Company&#8217;s management that the outcome of any claim which might be pending or threatened, either individually or on a combined basis, will not have a materially adverse effect on the financial position of the Company, but could materially affect the Company&#8217;s results of operations in a given year. </p><p style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Times New Roman;">No claims have been filed against the Company for the six months ended June&#160;30, 2016 or the fiscal year 2015, and the Company has not been a party to any legal proceedings for the six months ended June&#160;30, 2016 or the year ended December&#160;31, 2015. </p></div><span></span>

Early adoption is permitted for annual or interim reporting periods for which the financial statements have not previously been issued.
