This Amendment No. 1 amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on September 7, 2021 (the “Original Schedule 13D”) relating to shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), of Navios Maritime Acquisition Corporation (the “Issuer”). This amendment to the Original Schedule 13D constitutes an exit filing for Navios Maritime Partners L.P. (“NMM”).

Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction.

Item 4 is hereby supplemented by adding the following:

On August 25, 2021, the Issuer, NMM and Navios Acquisition Merger Sub. Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of NMM (“Merger Sub”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”). Pursuant to, and subject to the terms and conditions of, the Merger Agreement, on October 15, 2021, the Merger Sub merged with and into the Issuer (the “Merger”), and each of the 44,117,647 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by NMM was cancelled in the Merger. In the Merger, each of the outstanding shares of common stock of Merger Sub was converted into a share of common stock of the surviving company in the Merger. As such that surviving company is now a wholly owned subsidiary of the NMM.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of NNA.

Items 5(a), (b) and (e) are hereby supplemented by adding the following:

By virtue of the Merger, as of October 15, 2021, NMM no longer beneficially owned shares of Common Stock. As a result, this amendment to the Original Schedule 13D constitutes an exit filing for NMM.
