persons to receive Awards; (iv) determine the form and terms of Awards; (v) determine the number of shares of Common Stock subject to Awards; (vi) grant waivers of Plan or Award conditions; (vii) determine the vesting,

	4.	 Eligibility. 

Each Non-Employee Director shall be eligible to be selected as a Participant in the Plan. The Committee shall select
the Non-Employee Directors to receive Awards and shall determine the number of shares of Common Stock subject to a particular Award in such manner as the Committee determines in its sole discretion. 

 

	5.	 Stock Subject to the Plan. 

 

	 	(a)	 Number of Shares. The maximum number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance pursuant to
the Plan shall be 5,750,000 subject to equitable adjustment as provided in Section 5(b) below. Such shares may, in whole or in part, be authorized but unissued shares or shares that shall have been or may be reacquired by the Company in the
open market, in private transactions or otherwise. If any shares subject to an Award are forfeited, cancelled, exchanged or surrendered or if an Award otherwise terminates or expires without a distribution of shares to the Participant, the shares of
Common Stock with respect to such Award shall, to the extent of any such forfeiture, cancellation, exchange, surrender, termination or expiration, again be available for Awards under the Plan. 

  
 3 

	 	(b)	 Equitable Adjustment. In the event that an extraordinary transaction or other event or
circumstance affecting the Common Stock shall occur, including, but not limited to, any extraordinary dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, stock or other property), or recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split,
reorganization, merger, consolidation, spin-off, combination, repurchase, share exchange, sale of assets or other similar transaction or event, and the Committee determines that a change or adjustment in the
terms of any Award is appropriate, then the Committee may, in its sole discretion, make such equitable changes or adjustments or take any other actions that it deems necessary or appropriate (which shall be effective at such time as the Committee in
its sole discretion determines), including, but not limited to (A) causing changes or adjustments to any or all of (i) the number and kind of shares of stock or other securities or property which may thereafter be issued under the Plan in
connection with Awards, (ii) the number and kind of shares of stock or other securities or property issued or issuable in respect of outstanding Awards, and (iii) the exercise price relating to any Award, and (B) canceling outstanding
Awards in exchange for replacement awards or cash. 

  

	6.	 Non-Employee Director Options. 

 

	 	(a)	 General. The Committee may grant one or more Options to a
Non-Employee Director and will determine (i) the number of shares of Common Stock subject to each such Option, (ii) the exercise price of each such Option, (iii) the period during which each
such Option may be exercised, and (iv) all other terms and conditions of each such Option, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 6. 

  

	 	(b)	 Form of Option Award Agreement. Each Option granted pursuant to this Section 6 shall be
evidenced by an Award Agreement. Each Award Agreement shall (i) state that the Option constitutes a Nonqualified Stock Option, (ii) state the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Option relates, (iii) contain such other
provisions (which need not be the same for each Non-Employee Director or Option) as the Committee may from time to time approve, and (iv) comply with and be subject to the terms and conditions of the
Plan. 

  

	 	(c)	 Date of Grant. The date of grant of an Option will be the date on which the Committee makes the
determination to grant such Option, unless otherwise specified by the Committee. 

  

	 	(d)	 Exercise Period. Each Option shall be exercisable within the times or upon the occurrence of one
or more events determined by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement governing such Option, provided that no Option will be exercisable after the expiration of ten years from the date the Option is granted. The Committee also may provide
for an Option to become exercisable at one time or from time to time, periodically or otherwise, in such number of shares of Common Stock or percentage of share s of Common Stock as the Committee determines. Except as otherwise provided in an Award
Agreement and provided that the Non-Employee Director shall have continually served as such from the date of grant through the applicable vesting date, an Option shall become vested on a quarterly basis over a
one year period following the date of grant (at a rate of 1/4 per quarter), such that on the first anniversary of the date of grant, the Option will be fully vested. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as otherwise provided in an Award Agreement,
(i) each outstanding Option shall become immediately vested and exercisable in full upon the death of the Non-Employee Director, and (ii) if the Non-Employee
Director’s membership on the Board terminates by reason of Retirement, Permanent Disability or Partial Disability, any outstanding Option held by such Non-Employee Director shall become immediately vested
and exercisable in full. 

  
 4 

	 	(e)	 Exercise Price. The exercise price of an Option will be determined by the Committee when the
Option is granted and may be not less than 100% of the per share Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock subject to such Option on the date of grant of such Option. Payment for the shares of Common Stock purchased shall be made in accordance
with Section 6(g) of the Plan. 

  

	 	(f)	 Termination. Except as otherwise provided in an Award Agreement, upon the cessation of a Non-Employee Director’s membership on the Board for any reason, vested Options granted to such Non-Employee Director shall expire upon the earliest to occur of
(i) two (2) years from the date of such cessation of Board membership, (ii) the tenth anniversary of the date of grant of the Option, or (iii) the second anniversary of the Non-Employee
Director’s death; provided, the periods set forth in clauses (i) and (iii) may be extended upon Board approval. Any portion of an Option that is not vested on the Non-Employee Director’s
cessation of Board membership for any reason (or does not become vested by reason of such cessation of membership under paragraph (f) above) shall be permanently forfeited on the date such membership ceases.  

 

	 	(g)	 Method and Time of Payment. The Option exercise price shall be paid in full, at the time of
exercise, in cash, in shares of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to such Option exercise price, in a combination of cash and Common Stock or, in the sole discretion of the Committee or as set forth in any Award Agreement, through a
cashless exercise procedure. 

  

	 	(h)	 Elective Options for Non-Employee Directors. Each Non-Employee Director may from time to time elect, in accordance with procedures established by the Committee, to receive in lieu of all or part of any cash fees for services as a director of the Company that would
otherwise be payable to such Non-Employee Director (“Cash Fees”), an Option to purchase shares of Common Stock, which Option shall have a value (as determined in accordance with the Black-Scholes
stock option valuation method) as of the date of grant of such Option equal to the amount of such Cash Fees. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth elsewhere in the Plan, (i) the Option shall remain outstanding for a term of two or
five years from the date of grant, as elected by the Non-Employee Director, and (ii) the Option shall be fully vested and exercisable at the time of grant. 

  
 5 

	7.	 General Provisions. 

 

	 	(a)	 Compliance with Legal Requirements. The Plan and the granting and exercising of Awards, and the
other obligations of the Company under the Plan and any Award Agreement or other agreement shall be subject to all applicable federal and state laws, rules and regulations and to such approvals by any regulatory or governmental authority or agency
as may be required. 

  

	 	(b)	 Nontransferability. Awards shall not be transferable by a Participant other than by will or the
laws of descent and distribution, and shall be exercisable during the lifetime of a Participant only by such Participant or his guardian or legal representative; provided, however Awards may be transferred pursuant to a domestic relations order
awarding benefits to an “alternate payee” (within the meaning of Code Section 414(p)(8)) that the Committee determines satisfies the criteria set forth in paragraphs (1), (2), and (3) of Code Section 414(p).

  

	 	(c)	 No Right To Continued Directorship. Nothing in the Plan or in any Award granted or any Award
Agreement or other agreement entered into pursuant hereto shall confer upon any Participant the right to continue to serve as a director of the Company or to be entitled to any remuneration or benefits not set forth in the Plan or such Award
Agreement or other agreement. 

  

	 	(d)	 Withholding Taxes. Where a Participant or other person is entitled to receive shares of Common
Stock pursuant to the exercise of an Option or is otherwise entitled to receive shares of Common Stock or cash pursuant to an Award hereunder, the Company shall have the right to require the Participant or such other person to pay to the Company the
amount of any taxes which the Company may be required to withhold before delivery to such Participant or other person of cash or a certificate or certificates representing such shares. 

Unless otherwise prohibited by the Committee or by applicable law, a Participant may satisfy any such withholding tax obligation by any of the
following methods, or by a combination of such methods: (a) tendering a cash payment; (b) authorizing the Company to withhold from the shares of Common Stock or cash otherwise payable to such Participant through such Award having an
aggregate Fair Market Value, determined as of the date the withholding tax obligation arises, equal to the amount of the total withholding tax obligation, and/or (c) delivering to the Company previously acquired shares of Common Stock (none of
which shares may be subject to any claim, lien, security interest, community property right or other right of spouses or present or former family members, pledge, option, voting agreement or other restriction or encumbrance of any nature whatsoever)
having an aggregate Fair Market Value, determined as of the date the withholding tax obligation arises, equal to the amount of the total withholding tax obligation. 

  
 6 

	 	(e)	 Amendment and Termination of the Plan. The Board may at any time and from time to time alter,
amend, suspend, or terminate the Plan in whole or in part; provided that, any such amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan shall be subject to the requisite approval of the stockholders of the Company to the extent stockholder approval is
necessary to satisfy the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act or Rule 16b-3 thereunder, any New York Stock Exchange, Nasdaq or securities exchange listing requirements or any other law or regulation.
Except as otherwise provided herein, no amendment shall materially adversely affect the rights of any Participant under any Award previously granted under the Plan without such Participant’s consent. Unless sooner terminated by the Board, the
Plan will automatically terminate on the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date. If the Plan is terminated, any unexercised Option shall continue to be exercisable in accordance with its terms and the terms of the Plan in effect immediately prior
to such termination. 

  

	 	(f)	 Participant Rights. Except as provided specifically herein, a Participant or a transferee of an
Award shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares of Common Stock covered by any Award until the date of exercise of the Option and the issuance of a certificate to him or her for such shares in respect of such exercise.

  

	 	(g)	 Unfunded Status of Awards. The Plan is intended to constitute an unfunded plan for incentive
compensation. With respect to any payments not yet made to a Participant pursuant to an Award, nothing contained in the Plan or any Award shall give any such Participant any rights that are greater than those of a general creditor of the Company.

  

	 	(h)	 No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued or delivered pursuant
to the Plan or any Award. The Committee shall determine whether cash, other Awards or other property shall be issued or paid in lieu of such fractional shares or whether such fractional shares or any rights thereto shall be forfeited or otherwise
eliminated. 

  

	 	(i)	 Governing Law. The Plan and all determinations made and actions taken pursuant hereto shall be
governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to the conflict of laws principles thereof. 

  

	 	(j)	 Effective Date. The “Effective Date” of this Plan is May 9, 2016.

  

	 	(k)	 Beneficiary. A Participant may file with the Committee a written designation of a beneficiary on
such form as may be prescribed by the Committee and may, from time to time, amend or revoke such designation. If no designated beneficiary survives the Participant, the executor or administrator of the Participant’s estate shall be deemed to be
the grantee’s beneficiary.

practicable following the Closing, Parent and NNA shall cause a certificate of merger effecting the Merger (the “Certificate of Merger”) to be filed with the Office of the Registrar of Corporations of the Republic of the Marshall
Islands, duly executed in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Marshall Islands Business Corporation Act (the date and time of such filing (or, if agreed by the parties hereto, such later time and date as may be expressed therein as the
effective date and time of the Merger) being the “Effective Time”). Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time, Merger Sub shall merge with and into NNA, the separate existence of Merger
Sub shall cease, and NNA shall continue as the surviving corporation in the Merger (the “Surviving Entity”). 
 (c)
Effect of the Merger on Equity Securities. Subject in each case to Sections 2.2(d) and 2.2(e), at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, NNA, any Holder of
shares of NNA Common Stock, any Holder of Parent Common Units, or any other Person: 
 (i) Conversion of NNA Common Stock. Each share
of NNA Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than the shares of NNA Common Stock referenced in Section 2.2(c)(iii) below and other than any share of NNA Common Stock outstanding immediately
prior to the Effective Time that is subject to vesting or other forfeiture conditions (such shares, the “NNA Restricted Shares”)) shall be converted into the right to receive 0.1275 of a validly issued Parent Common Unit (the
“Merger Consideration” and such ratio, the “Exchange Ratio”). Each NNA Restricted Share award outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into an award with respect to a number of Parent
Common Units (rounded up or down to the nearest whole unit) equal to the product of (x) the number of shares of NNA Common Stock subject to such NNA Restricted Share award and (y) the Exchange Ratio, and such award of Parent Common Units
will be subject to the same terms and conditions (including, without limitation, the same vesting conditions) as were applicable to such NNA Restricted Share award immediately prior to the Effective Time. 

(ii) Each share of NNA Common Stock, upon being converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to
Section 2.2(c)(i), shall cease to be outstanding and shall be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each Holder of a share of NNA Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time shall thereafter cease to
be a shareholder of NNA or have any rights with respect to such share of NNA Common Stock, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration and any dividends or distributions to which former Holders of NNA Common Stock become entitled all in
accordance with this Article II upon the Surrender of (A) a certificate that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented NNA Common Stock (a “NNA Certificate”) or (B) uncertificated NNA Common Stock
represented by book-entry (“Book-Entry NNA Common Stock”), together with such properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal and such other documents in accordance with Section 2.3. 

(iii) Treatment of NNA-Owned NNA Common Stock and Parent-Owned NNA Common Stock. Any shares of
NNA Common Stock that are owned immediately prior to the Effective Time by any NNA Group Entity or Parent Group Entity (including the Equity Issuance Shares) shall be automatically canceled and shall cease to exist and no consideration shall be
delivered in exchange for such canceled NNA Common Stock. 

  
 14 

 (iv) Common Stock of Merger Sub. Each share of common stock of Merger Sub issued and
outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into one share of common stock of the Surviving Entity. At the Effective Time, the books and records of NNA shall be revised to reflect the cancellation and retirement of all
shares of NNA Common Stock and the conversion of the shares of common stock of Merger Sub into common stock of the Surviving Entity, and the existence of NNA (as the Surviving Entity) shall continue without dissolution. 

(d) Other Effects of the Merger. The Merger shall be conducted in accordance with and shall have the effects set forth in this
Agreement and the applicable provisions of Marshall Islands Limited Business Corporation Act. At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger, the Amended NNA Articles of Incorporation as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time to
read in its entirety as set forth on Exhibit A and from and after the Effective Time, the Amended NNA Articles of Incorporation as so amended shall continue as the articles of incorporation of the Surviving Entity until duly amended in
accordance with applicable Law. From and after the Effective Time, the bylaws of NNA as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall continue as the bylaws of the Surviving Entity until duly amended in accordance with applicable Law. 

(e) No Fractional Units. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, (i) no certificates or scrip representing
fractional Parent Common Units shall be issued in the Merger, (ii) each Holder of shares of NNA Common Stock exchanged pursuant to the Merger who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fractional Parent Common Unit (after taking into
account all shares of NNA Common Stock held by such Holder immediately prior to the Effective Time) of 0.5 or above shall receive from Parent, in lieu of such fractional unit, a full Parent Common Unit, and (iii) any Holder of shares of NNA
Common Stock exchanged pursuant to the Merger who would otherwise have been entitled to receive a fractional Parent Common Unit (after taking into account all shares of NNA Common Stock held by such Holder immediately prior to the Effective Time) of
less than 0.5 shall receive no consideration for such fractional unit, which shall be forfeited. 
 (f) Certain Adjustments. If
between the Execution Date and the Effective Time, whether or not permitted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the number of outstanding shares of NNA Common Stock or Parent Common Units shall be changed into a different number of units,
shares or other securities (including any different class or series of securities) by reason of any dividend or distribution payable in shares or partnership interests, equity interests or Rights, subdivision, reclassification, split, split-up, combination, merger, consolidation, or other similar transaction, or any such transaction shall be authorized, declared or agreed upon with a record date at or prior to the Effective Time, then the Merger
Consideration and any other similarly dependent items shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect fully the effect of such transaction and to provide to Parent, NNA, Merger Sub and the Holders of shares of NNA Common Stock the same economic effect as
contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event, and thereafter, all references in this Agreement to the Merger Consideration, and any other similarly dependent items shall be references to the Merger Consideration and any other similarly
dependent items, as so adjusted; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 2.2(f) shall be deemed to permit or authorize any party hereto to effect any such dividend or distribution payable in shares,
partnership interests, equity interests or Rights, subdivision, reclassification, split, split up, combination, merger, consolidation or other similar transaction, or the authorization, declaration or agreement to do such transaction that is not
otherwise authorized or permitted to be undertaken pursuant to this Agreement.

 SECTION 2.3 Exchange of NNA Common Stock. 

(a) Exchange Agent. Prior to the mailing of the NNA Proxy Statement, Parent shall appoint a bank, trust company or similar Person to
act as exchange agent (the “Exchange Agent”) and establish an exchange fund (the “Exchange Fund”) for the payment of the Merger Consideration and any dividends or distributions payable pursuant to
Section 2.3(c). At or prior to the Closing, Parent shall (i) reserve with the Exchange Agent the Parent Common Units to be issued pursuant to Section 2.2(c)(i), and (ii) authorize the
Exchange Agent to exchange Parent Common Units in accordance with this Section 2.3. Parent shall deposit with the Exchange Agent any additional cash as and when necessary to pay any dividends or distributions payable
pursuant to Section 2.3(c) and 2.3(d) and other amounts required to be paid under this Agreement. Parent shall pay all costs and fees of the Exchange Agent and all expenses associated with the exchange process. Any
Parent Common Units, and any other funds deposited with the Exchange Agent, shall be returned to Parent after the earlier to occur of (x) payment in full of all amounts due to the Holders of shares of NNA Common Stock and (y) the
expiration of the period specified in Section 2.3(e). 
 (b) Exchange Procedures. Promptly after the
Effective Time, Parent shall, or shall cause the Exchange Agent to, mail to each Holder of NNA Common Stock as of the Effective Time whose shares of NNA Common Stock were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration a form of letter
of transmittal (the “Letter of Transmittal”) (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the NNA Certificates shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the NNA Certificates (or lost certificate
affidavit as contemplated by this Section 2.3(b)) to the Exchange Agent or, in the case of Book-Entry NNA Common Stock, upon adherence to the procedures set forth in the Letter of Transmittal, and which shall be in such
customary form and have such other provisions as Parent and NNA may reasonably agree prior to the Effective Time) and instructions for effecting the Surrender of such NNA Certificates (or lost certificate affidavit as contemplated by this
Section 2.3(b)) or Book-Entry NNA Common Stock in exchange for, as applicable, whole Parent Common Units and any dividends or distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.3(c) or
Section 2.3(d). Subject to Section 2.3(c), upon Surrender to the Exchange Agent of such NNA Certificates (or lost certificate affidavit as contemplated by this
Section 2.3(b)) or Book-Entry NNA Common Stock, together with such properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal and such other documents as may reasonably be required by the Exchange Agent, the Holder of an
NNA Certificate (or lost certificate affidavit as contemplated by this Section 2.3(b)) or Book-Entry NNA Common Stock shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor, as applicable, (i) that number and type of whole
Parent Common Units (which shall be in uncertificated book-entry form unless a physical certificate is requested) to which such Holder is entitled pursuant to Sections 2.2(c)(i) and 2.2(e), and (ii) any dividends or
distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.3(c) or Section 2.3(d) to which such Holder is entitled. The instructions for effecting the Surrender of NNA Certificates shall set forth procedures that
must be taken by the Holder of any NNA Certificate that has been lost, destroyed or stolen; it shall be a condition to the right of such Holder to receive the Merger Consideration and any dividends or distributions payable pursuant to
Section 2.3(c) or Section 2.3(d) that the Exchange Agent shall have received, 

  
 16 

 along with the Letter of Transmittal, a duly executed lost certificate affidavit, including an agreement to
indemnify Parent, signed exactly as the name or names of the registered Holder or Holders of shares of NNA Common Stock appeared on the books of NNA immediately prior to the Effective Time, together with a customary bond and such other documents, in
each case, as Parent may reasonably require in connection therewith. After the Effective Time, there shall be no further transfer on the records of NNA or its transfer agent of NNA Certificates or Book-Entry NNA Common Stock; and if such NNA
Certificates or Book-Entry NNA Common Stock are presented to NNA or its transfer agent for transfer, they shall be canceled against delivery of the Merger Consideration and any dividends or distributions payable pursuant to
Section 2.3(c) or Section 2.3(d) as hereinabove provided. Until Surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.3(b), each NNA Certificate or
Book-Entry NNA Common Stock shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such Surrender the Merger Consideration. No interest will be paid or will accrue on
any dividends or distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.3(c) or Section 2.3(d). 

(c) Dividends and Distributions with Respect to Unexchanged NNA Common Stock. No dividends or other distributions with respect to
Parent Common Units issued in the Merger with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the Holder of any NNA Certificate or Book-Entry NNA Common Stock not Surrendered with respect to such Parent Common Units issuable in respect
thereof until the Surrender of such NNA Certificate or Book-Entry NNA Common Stock in accordance with this Section 2.3. Subject to the effect of applicable Law, Parent shall pay, or cause the Exchange Agent to pay, to the
Holder of each NNA Certificate or Book-Entry NNA Common Stock, without interest, (i) at the time of Surrender of such NNA Certificate or Book-Entry NNA Common Stock, the amount of dividends or other distributions previously paid with respect to
the whole Parent Common Units issuable with respect to such NNA Certificate or Book-Entry NNA Common Stock that have a record date after the Effective Time and a payment date on or prior to the time of Surrender and (ii) at the appropriate
payment date, the amount of dividends and distributions payable with respect to such whole Parent Common Units with a record date after the Effective Time and prior to such Surrender and a payment date subsequent to such Surrender. 

(d) No Further Ownership Rights in NNA Common Stock. All Merger Consideration issued upon the Surrender for exchange of NNA
Certificates or Book-Entry NNA Common Stock in accordance with the terms of this Article II shall be deemed to have been issued (and paid) in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shares of NNA Common Stock theretofore
represented by such NNA Certificates or Book-Entry NNA Common Stock, subject, however, to Parent’s obligation, notwithstanding the conversion of shares of NNA Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement, with respect to shares of NNA Common Stock
outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, to pay (or cause NNA to pay) to the Holder of shares NNA Common Stock as of the applicable record date any distributions with a record date at or prior to the Effective Time that may have been
declared or made by NNA with respect to such shares of NNA Common Stock on or prior to the Effective Time and that remain unpaid at the Effective Time. 

  
 17 

 (e) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains
undistributed to the Holders of the NNA Certificates or Book-Entry NNA Common Stock for six (6) months after the Closing Date shall be delivered to Parent, upon demand, and any Holders of the NNA Certificates or Book-Entry NNA Common Stock who
have not theretofore complied with this Section 2.3 shall thereafter look only to Parent and only as general creditors thereof for payment of their claim for the Merger Consideration and any dividends and distributions with
respect to NNA Common Stock or Parent Common Units to which such holders may be entitled. 
 (f) No Liability. To the extent
permitted by applicable Law, none of Parent, Merger Sub, NNA or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any Person in respect of any Merger Consideration or distribution properly delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned
property, escheat or similar Law. If any NNA Certificates or Book-Entry NNA Common Stock shall not have been Surrendered immediately prior to such date on which any Merger Consideration, or any dividends or distributions with respect to the NNA
Common Stock or Parent Common Units in respect of such NNA Certificate or Book-Entry NNA Common Stock would escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity, any such units, cash or distributions in respect of such NNA Certificates or
Book-Entry NNA Common Stock shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of Parent, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto. 

(g) Withholding Rights. Parent, Merger Sub, NNA, the Surviving Entity and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold
from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement, without duplication, such amounts, which may include Parent Common Units, as Parent, Merger Sub, NNA, the Surviving Entity or the Exchange Agent reasonably deem to be required to
deduct and withhold with respect to the making of payments under the Code and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, or any provision of state, local or non-U.S. Tax Law. To the extent that amounts
are so withheld or paid over to or deposited with the relevant Governmental Entity, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of whom such deduction and withholding or payment was
made. 
 SECTION 2.4 Plan of Reorganization. For purposes of the Intended Tax Treatment, this Agreement constitutes, and is adopted
as, a “plan of reorganization” for purposes of Sections 354 and 361 of the Code.

documents required to be filed or furnished by NNA or any NNA Subsidiary with or to the SEC have been or will be timely filed or furnished (the “NNA SEC Reports”). Each of the NNA SEC Reports (i) complied in all material
respects with the requirements of applicable Law (including the Exchange Act, the Securities Act and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”)), and
(ii) as of its effective date (in the case of NNA SEC Reports that are registration statements filed pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act) and as of its filing date did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit
to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except for any statements in any NNA SEC Report that may have

by NNA in the reports that it files under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that all such material information is accumulated and communicated
to its management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. NNA’s principal executive officer and its principal financial officer have disclosed, based on their most recent evaluation, to NNA’s auditors and
the audit committee of the NNA Board (x) all significant deficiencies in the designation or operation of internal controls which could adversely affect NNA’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial data and have
identified for NNA’s auditors any material weakness in internal controls and (y) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in NNA’s internal controls.

Statements”). The NNA Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods covered thereby (except as may be indicated in the notes thereto) and present fairly in all material
respects the consolidated financial position of NNA as of the dates indicated therein and the consolidated results of operations and cash flows of NNA for the periods indicated therein, except as otherwise noted therein. Except as set forth in the
NNA Financial Statements, there are no off-balance sheet arrangements that would, individually or in the aggregate, have an NNA Material Adverse Effect. NNA has not had any disagreement with its independent

documents required to be filed or furnished by Parent or any Parent Subsidiary with or to the SEC have been or will be timely filed or furnished (the “Parent SEC Reports”). Each of the Parent SEC Reports (i) complied in all

 29 

 (b) Parent makes and keeps books, records, and accounts and has devised and maintains a
system of internal controls, in each case, as required pursuant to Section 13(b)(2) under the Exchange Act. Parent has established and maintains disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting (as such terms are
defined in paragraphs (e) and (f), respectively, of Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act) as required by Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act and the applicable listing
standards of the NYSE. Such disclosure controls and procedures are reasonably designed to ensure that all material information required to be disclosed by Parent in the reports that it files under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized
and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that all such material information is accumulated and communicated to its management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Parent’s principal executive officer and its principal financial officer have disclosed, based on their most recent evaluation, to Parent’s auditors and the audit committee of the Parent Board (x) all significant deficiencies in the
designation or operation of internal controls which could adversely affect Parent’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial data and have identified for Parent’s auditors any material weakness in internal controls and
(y) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in Parent’s internal controls. 

(c) Since January 1, 2020, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of Parent have made all certifications
(without qualification or exceptions to the matters certified, except as to knowledge) required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and the statements contained in any such certifications are complete and correct, and none of such entities or its officers
have received notice from any Governmental Entity questioning or challenging the accuracy, completeness, form or manner of filing or submission of such certification. As of the Execution Date, and except as disclosed in a Parent SEC Report filed
with the SEC prior to the Execution Date, none of such entities has any knowledge of any material weakness in the design or operation of such internal controls over financial reporting. 

(d) Parent is an “accredited investor” (within the meaning of Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act) and is acquiring the Equity
Issuance Shares pursuant to the NNA Equity Issuance only for its own account and not for the account of others and is not acquiring Equity Issuance Shares with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution thereof in violation
of the Securities Act. Parent acknowledges that the Equity Issuance Shares are being offered in a transaction not involving any public offering within the meaning of the Securities Act and that the such shares have not been registered under the
Securities Act. Parent acknowledges and agrees that the Equity Issuance Shares may not be offered, resold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by Parent absent an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, except pursuant to an
applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

20-F and the Latest Parent Quarter 6-K are collectively referred to as the “Parent Financial Statements”). The Parent Financial Statements have been
prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods covered thereby (except as may be indicated in the notes thereto) and present fairly in all material respects the consolidated financial position of Parent as of
dates indicated therein and the consolidated results of operations and cash flows of Parent for the periods indicated therein, except as otherwise noted therein. Except as set forth in the Parent Financial Statements, there are no off-balance sheet arrangements that would, individually or in the aggregate, have a Parent Material Adverse Effect.

disclosure in the NNA SEC Reports.

No filing of, or amendment or supplement to, the Registration Statement or the NNA Proxy Statement will be made by Parent without providing NNA a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon. Each of Parent and NNA agrees to use its

contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Each of Parent and NNA further agrees
that, if it shall become aware prior to the Closing Date of any information that would cause any of the statements in the Registration Statement or the NNA Proxy Statement to be false or misleading with respect to any material fact, or omit to state
any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not false or misleading, it will promptly inform the other party thereof and take the necessary steps to correct such information
in an amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or the NNA Proxy Statement. 
 (c) Each of NNA and Parent shall
(i) promptly notify the other of receipt of any comments from the SEC or its staff or any other applicable government official and of any requests by the SEC or its staff or any other applicable government official for amendments or supplements

Agreement pursuant to the NNA Board Recommendation. NNA shall use its reasonable best efforts to solicit from the Holders of shares of NNA Common Stock proxies in favor of the Merger and to take all other action necessary or advisable to secure the
NNA Stockholders Approval. The NNA Proxy Statement shall include a copy of the NNA Fairness Opinion and (subject to Section 5.3), the NNA Special Committee Recommendation and the NNA Board Recommendation. Notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement to the contrary, unless this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Sections 7.1, 7.2, 7.3 or 7.4, NNA shall submit this Agreement for approval by the Holders of shares of NNA Common Stock
at such NNA Stockholders Meeting. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, NNA may, and at the request of Parent shall, postpone or adjourn the NNA Stockholders Meeting (i) to solicit additional proxies for the purpose of
obtaining the NNA Stockholders Approval, (ii) for the absence of a quorum, and (iii) to allow reasonable additional time for the filing and/or mailing of any supplemental or amended disclosure that after consultation with outside legal

Agreement not being fulfilled, or (y) impede, frustrate, interfere with, delay, postpone or adversely affect the Transactions, and (ii) that Parent will not, and will cause each other Parent Group Entity not to, directly or indirectly,
transfer, assign or otherwise dispose of any shares of NNA Common Stock owned by Parent or such other Parent Group Entity. Parent consents to, and has caused or shall cause, to the extent necessary and to the extent permitted by the Governing
Documents thereof, each other Parent Group Entity to consent to, this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

such NNA Alternative Proposal or other change in circumstances related thereto; provided, however, that any material revisions to such NNA Alternative Proposal (it being agreed that any change in the purchase price in such NNA Alternative Proposal

NNA and Parent shall cooperate fully with respect to any filing, submission or communication with a Governmental Entity having jurisdiction over the Merger. Such cooperation shall include each of the parties hereto: (i) providing, in the
case of oral communications with a Governmental Entity, advance notice of any such communication and, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, an opportunity for the other party to participate; (ii) providing, in the case of written
communications, an opportunity for the other party to comment on any such communication and provide the other with a final copy of all such communications; and (iii) complying promptly with any request for information from a Governmental Entity
(including an additional request for information and documentary material). All cooperation shall be conducted in such a manner so as to preserve all applicable privileges.

 SECTION 5.8 Tax Opinion. 

(a) Parent and NNA shall cooperate with each other in obtaining, and shall use their respective reasonable efforts to obtain, a tax opinion
from Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson LLP (“Parent Tax Counsel”) to NNA, dated as of the Closing Date, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to NNA (and any similar opinion to be attached as an exhibit to
the Registration Statement), substantially to the effect that for U.S. federal income tax purposes the Merger (either alone or together with the Second Merger, if applicable) should be treated as a “reorganization” within the meaning of
Section 368(a) of the Code and that Section 367(a) of the Code should not cause Parent to be treated as other than a corporation with respect to any transfer of property thereto in connection with the Merger (other than, in certain
circumstances, a transfer by a holder of NNA Common Stock that is a United States person and that holds 5% or more by vote or by value (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations
Section 1.367(a)-3(b)(1)(i)) of Parent immediately following the Merger) (the “Merger Tax Opinion”). For the avoidance of doubt, the Merger Tax Opinion shall not be a condition to
closing. Each of Parent and NNA shall use its reasonable efforts to deliver to Parent Tax Counsel for purposes of the Merger Tax Opinion a “Tax Representation Letter,” dated as of the Closing Date (and, if requested, dated as of the date
the Registration Statement shall have been declared effective by the SEC), signed by an officer of Parent or NNA, as applicable, and containing representations of Parent or NNA, as applicable, in each case, as shall be reasonably necessary or
appropriate to enable Parent Tax Counsel to render the Merger Tax Opinion and any opinion required to be issued in connection with the filing of the Registration Statement. 

(b) Parent and NNA shall cooperate, including by making structural changes that are not reasonably expected to impede or materially delay
consummation of the Merger, with each other and shall use their reasonable efforts to obtain the Intended Tax Treatment. Each of Parent and NNA shall not, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries not to, take any action that is reasonably likely to,
or fail to take any action which failure is reasonably likely to, prevent or impede the Intended Tax Treatment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Parent and NNA agree that at the request of NNA, or if Parent so elects, Parent shall,
as part of the plan of reorganization, cause the Surviving Entity to merge with and into a newly organized entity that is treated as an entity disregarded as separate from Parent for U.S. federal income tax purposes (“Newco”), with
Newco as the surviving entity (the “Second Merger”); provided, that the Second Merger shall occur as promptly as practicable after both (i) the Effective Time shall have occurred and (ii) all third party consents necessary
to consummate the Second Merger shall have been obtained; provided, further that, from the time NNA makes the request or Parent makes the election, as applicable, for the Second Merger, each of the parties hereto shall use its commercially
reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all appropriate action, and to do or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Law to consummate and make effective the Second Merger as promptly as practicable
after the Effective Time. 
 SECTION 5.9 D&O Insurance. 

(a) For a period of six years after the Effective Time, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, the Surviving Entity shall, and
Parent shall cause the Surviving Entity to, (i) indemnify and hold harmless against any reasonable costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and all other reasonable costs, expenses and obligations (including experts’
fees, travel expenses, court costs, retainers, transcript fees, duplicating, printing and binding costs, as well as telecommunications, postage and courier charges) paid or incurred in 

  
 44 

 
connection with investigating, defending, being a witness in or participating in (including on appeal), or preparing to investigate, defend, be a witness in or participate in, any Proceeding
arising from acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including the transactions contemplated by this Agreement), including any Proceeding relating to a claim for indemnification or advancement brought by an NNA D&O
Indemnified Party), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities, penalties and amounts paid in settlement (including all interest, assessments and other charges paid or payable in connection with or in respect of any thereof) in
connection with any actual or threatened Proceeding arising from acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including the transactions contemplated by this Agreement), and, upon receipt by the Surviving Entity of an undertaking
by or on behalf of the NNA D&O Indemnified Party to repay such amount if it shall be determined in a final and non-appealable judgment entered by a court of competent jurisdiction that the NNA D&O
Indemnified Party is not entitled to be indemnified, provide advancement of expenses with respect to each of the foregoing to, all NNA D&O Indemnified Parties and (ii) honor all rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses,
elimination of liability and exculpation from liabilities for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) now existing in favor of the NNA D&O Indemnified Parties as
provided in the Governing Documents of any NNA Group Entity, under applicable the Law of the Republic of the Marshall Islands or otherwise, and shall ensure that the Governing Documents of NNA (or their successor entities) shall, for a period of six
years following the Effective Time, contain provisions substantially no less advantageous with respect to indemnification, advancement of expenses, elimination of liability and exculpation of their present and former directors and officers, than are
set forth in the Governing Documents of NNA as of the Execution Date. Any right of an NNA D&O Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 5.9(a) shall not be amended, repealed, terminated or otherwise modified at any
time in a manner that would adversely affect the rights of such NNA D&O Indemnified Party as provided herein, and shall be enforceable by such NNA D&O Indemnified Party and their respective heirs and Representatives against Parent, the
Surviving Entity and their respective successors and assigns. 
 (b) For a period of six years after the Effective Time, the Surviving Entity
shall, Parent shall cause the Surviving Entity to, maintain officers’ and directors’ liability insurance with a nationally reputable carrier covering each NNA D&O Indemnified Party who is or at any time prior to the Second Effective
Time was covered by the existing officers’ and directors’ liability insurance applicable to the NNA Group Entities (“D&O Insurance”), on terms substantially no less advantageous to the NNA D&O Indemnified Parties,
as applicable, than such existing insurance with respect to acts or omissions, or alleged acts or omissions, at or prior to the Effective Time (whether claims, actions or other Proceedings relating thereto are commenced, asserted or claimed before
or after the Effective Time); provided, however, that the Surviving Entity shall not be required to pay an annual premium for the D&O Insurance for the NNA D&O Indemnified Parties in excess of 300% of the current annual premium
currently paid by the NNA Group Entities for such insurance, but shall purchase as much of such coverage as possible for such applicable amount. Parent shall have the right to cause such coverage to be extended under the applicable D&O Insurance
by obtaining a six-year “tail” policy on terms and conditions no less advantageous to the NNA D&O Indemnified Parties than the existing D&O Insurance, and such “tail” policy shall
satisfy the provisions of this Section 5.9. 

  
 45 

 (c) The provisions of this Section 5.9 shall survive the
consummation of the Merger for a period of six years and expressly are intended to benefit each of the NNA D&O Indemnified Parties; provided, however, that in the event that any claim or claims for indemnification or advancement
set forth in this Section 5.9 are asserted or made within such six-year period, all rights to indemnification and advancement in respect of any such claim or claims shall continue
until disposition of all such claims. The rights of any NNA D&O Indemnified Party under this Section 5.9 shall be in addition to any other rights such NNA D&O Indemnified Party may have under the Governing Documents
of any NNA Group Entity or applicable Law. 
 (d) In the event Parent or any of its successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or
merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving entity in such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then and in either such case, Parent shall
cause proper provision to be made so that its successors and assigns, as the case may be, shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 5.9. 

SECTION 5.10 Litigation. NNA shall give Parent the opportunity to participate in the defense or settlement of any securityholder
litigation against NNA and/or the members of the NNA Board, in each case, relating to the Merger, this Agreement or any of the Transactions, provided that NNA shall not be required to provide information if doing so would be reasonably
expected to threaten the loss of any attorney-client privilege or other applicable legal privilege or protective doctrine; provided, further, that NNA shall not settle any such litigation without the written consent of Parent (such consent
not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). 
 SECTION 5.11 Special Committee. Prior to the Effective Time, none
of the NNA Group Entities shall, without the consent of the NNA Special Committee, eliminate the NNA Special Committee, or revoke or diminish the authority of the NNA Special Committee, or remove or cause the removal of any director of the NNA Board
that is a member of the NNA Special Committee either as a member of such board or such committee without the affirmative vote of the members of the NNA Board, including the affirmative vote of each of the other members of the NNA Special Committee.
For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 5.11 shall not apply to the filling in accordance with the provisions of the applicable Governing Documents of any vacancies caused by the death, incapacity or resignation of any
director. 
 SECTION 5.12 Stock Exchange Listing; Delisting and Deregistration. Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts
to cause the Parent Common Units to be issued in the Merger to be approved for listing on the NYSE (subject, if applicable, to notice of issuance), and NNA shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the shares of NNA Common Stock issued in the
NNA Equity Issuance to be and remain listed on the NYSE until the Closing. NNA will cooperate and use its reasonable best efforts to cause the delisting of shares NNA Common Stock from the NYSE and the deregistration of such securities under the
Exchange Act as promptly as practicable following the Closing in compliance with applicable Law.

occur on or before such date; or 

  
 48 

 (b) a Governmental Entity shall have issued an order, decree or ruling or taken any other

Section 7.2(b) shall have complied with Section 5.3, Section 5.4 and Section 5.7. 

SECTION 7.3 Termination by NNA. This Agreement may be terminated by NNA (which termination may be effected by the NNA
Special Committee without the consent, authorization or approval of the NNA Board) at any time prior to the Effective Time if the Parent Parties shall have breached or failed to perform any of their respective representations, warranties, covenants
or agreements set forth in this Agreement (or if any of the representations or warranties of the Parent Parties set forth in this Agreement shall fail to be true), which breach or failure (i) would (if it occurred or was continuing as of the
Closing Date) give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 6.3(a) (with or without the passage of time) and (ii) is incapable of being cured, or is not cured, by the Parent Parties prior to the Outside
Date; provided that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 7.3 shall not be available to NNA if, at such time, the condition set forth in Section 6.2(a) cannot be
satisfied (with or without the passage of time). 
 SECTION 7.4 Termination by Parent. This Agreement may be terminated by
Parent at any time prior to the Effective Time (a) if NNA shall have breached or failed to perform any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement (or if any of the representations or warranties of

 SECTION 7.5 Expenses.

(b) If this Agreement is validly terminated by NNA pursuant to Section 7.3, then Parent shall pay to NNA (or its
designated Affiliate) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by NNA an amount equal to the NNA Expenses, and such payment shall be made within five Business Days after such termination. 

  
 49 

 (c) Each party acknowledges that the agreements contained in this
Section 7.5 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that, without these agreements, Parent and Merger Sub, on the one hand, and NNA, on the other hand, would not enter into this
Agreement. The parties acknowledge that payment of the Parent Expenses or the NNA Expenses, as applicable, if, as and when requires pursuant to this Section 7.5 shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy with respect
thereto, except as expressly set forth in Section 7.6. 
 SECTION 7.6 Effect of Certain Terminations. In
the event of termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Article VII, written notice thereof shall be given to the other party or parties, specifying the provision of this Agreement pursuant to which such termination is made, and this
Agreement, except for the provisions of Section 2.1(a), Section 4.5(d), Section 5.5, Section 5.6, this Article VII and Article
VIII, shall forthwith become null and void and there shall be no liability on the part of any party to this Agreement and all rights and obligations of the parties hereto under this Agreement shall terminate, except for the provisions of
Section 2.1(a), Section 4.5(d), Section 5.5, Section 5.6, this Article VII and Article VIII shall survive such termination; except
that nothing herein shall relieve any party hereto from any liability for any intentional or willful and material breach by such party of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement and all rights and
remedies of a non-breaching party under this Agreement in the case of such intentional or willful and material breach, at law or in equity, shall be preserved. For the avoidance of doubt, no termination of
this Agreement pursuant to this Article VII shall affect the transactions contemplated by Section 2.1, including the consummation of the NNA Equity Issuance.

instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the consummation of the Merger, except for those covenants and agreements contained herein that by their terms apply or are to be performed in whole or in part after the Effective Time.

 SECTION 7.8 Enforcement of this Agreement. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that an award of money damages would be
inadequate for any breach of this Agreement by any party and any such breach would cause the non-breaching parties irreparable harm. Accordingly, the parties hereto agree that prior to the termination of this
Agreement, in the event of any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement by one of the parties, the parties will also be entitled, without the requirement of posting a bond or other security, to equitable relief, including injunctive relief and
specific performance, provided such party is not in material default hereunder. Subject to Section 7.5(e), such remedies will not be the exclusive remedies for any breach of this Agreement but will be in addition to
all other remedies available at law or equity to each of the parties. 
 SECTION 7.9 No Waiver Relating to Claims for Fraud/Willful
Misconduct. The liability of any party under this Article VII shall be in addition to, and not exclusive of, any other liability that such party may have at law or in equity based on such party’s (a) fraudulent
acts or omissions or (b) willful misconduct. None of the provisions set forth in this Agreement shall be deemed to be a waiver by or release of any party of any right or remedy that such party may have at law or equity based on any other
party’s fraudulent acts or omissions or willful misconduct nor shall any such provisions limit, or be deemed to limit, (i) the amounts of recovery sought or awarded in any such claim for fraud or willful misconduct, (ii) the time
period during which a claim for fraud or willful misconduct may be brought, or (iii) the recourse that any such party may seek against another party with respect to a claim for fraud or willful misconduct.

Islands, and each of the parties hereby irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom) in any such suit, action or proceeding and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent
permitted by Law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court or that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an
inconvenient forum. Process in any such suit, action or proceeding may be served on any party anywhere in the world, whether within or without the jurisdiction of any such court. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT
TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING (WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. 

SECTION 8.3 Entire Agreement; Amendments, Consents and Waivers. This Agreement and the exhibits and schedules
hereto and thereto constitute the entire agreement between and among the parties hereto pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions, whether oral or written, of the

Agreement (including the representations and warranties set forth in Articles III and IV), (a) the parties acknowledge and agree that neither the NNA Group Entities nor any other Person has made, and the Parent Group Entities
are not relying upon, any covenant, representation or warranty, expressed or implied, as to the NNA Group Entities or as to the accuracy or completeness of any information regarding any NNA Group Entity furnished or made available to any Parent

Entity’s or any NNA Group Entity’s use of or reliance on, any such information or any information, documents or material made available to the Parent Group Entities or NNA Group Entities, as applicable, in any “data rooms,”
“virtual data rooms,” management presentations or in any other form in expectation of, or in connection with, the transactions contemplated hereby. Subject to compliance with applicable Law, prior to the Closing, any provision of this
Agreement may be (a) consented to or waived in writing by the party benefited by the provision or (b) amended or modified at any time by an agreement in writing by the parties hereto; provided, however, that, in addition to
any other approvals required by NNA’s constituent documents or under this Agreement, the foregoing consents, waivers, amendments or modifications in clauses (a) and (b), and any decision or determination by NNA under this Agreement

(including pursuant to Section 7.8)), must be approved by, in the case of consents, waivers, amendments or modifications, or such decisions or determinations, by the NNA Special Committee. No amendment, supplement,
modification or waiver of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by the parties hereto. The failure of a party to exercise any right or remedy shall not be deemed or constitute a waiver of such right or remedy in the future. No
waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provision hereof (regardless of whether similar), nor shall any such waiver constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressly
provided. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, following receipt of the NNA Stockholders Approval, there shall be no amendment or change to the provisions of this Agreement which by applicable Laws or stock exchange rule would
require further approval by the Holders of NNA Public Stock, as applicable, without such approval. 
 SECTION 8.4 Binding Effect; No
Third-Party Beneficiaries; and Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is
intended to confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, any rights, benefits or obligations hereunder, except (i) as provided in Section 5.9 and
(ii) for the right of the Holders of NNA Common Stock to receive the Merger Consideration. No party hereto may assign, transfer, dispose of or otherwise alienate this Agreement or any of its rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement
(whether by operation of law or otherwise). Any attempted assignment, transfer, disposition or alienation in violation of this Agreement shall be null, void and ineffective. 

SECTION 8.5 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced
