State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition
report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.
Nordic American Tankers Ltd. (the “Registrant”) is unable to file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission, without unreasonable effort or expense, its annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the “Annual Report”) within the prescribed due date for such filing. Therefore, the Registrant is filing this form for a 15-day
extension. Additional time is needed for the Registrant to complete its consolidated financial statements and assessment of internal controls over financial reporting for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, and, as a consequence, for the
Registrant’s independent registered public accounting firm to complete its audit procedures and audit of the consolidated financial statements to be included in the Annual Report.
