(Attach Extra Sheets if Needed)
Navigator Holdings Ltd. (the “Registrant”) is unable to file its Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 (the “Report”) within the prescribed time period without unreasonable effort or expense, because the Registrant needs additional time to implement an agreement in connection with its $75.0 million credit agreement entered into in March 2019 (the “Terminal Facility”), used for the payment of project costs relating to the ethylene export marine terminal, to correct a technical inconsistency in the Terminal Facility, which has only just come to light, involving a restriction on taking affirmative action regarding the treatment of the borrower as a corporation for U.S. federal, state or local income tax purposes. As a result of such inconsistency only coming to light very recently and the work required to correct this error (which is slower than usual due to the Registrant’s employees working remotely from home during the COVID-19 pandemic), the Registrant is unable to file the Report within the prescribed time period. In accordance with Rule 12b-25 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Registrant will have filed the Report within fifteen calendar days following the prescribed due date in compliance with Rule 12b-25(b).
