INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS FORM 6-K REPORT

On November 23, 2016, Hunter Maritime Acquisition Corp. (the "Company") consummated its initial public offering ("IPO") of 15,000,000 units (the "Units"). Each Unit consists of one Class A common share of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Class A Common Shares"), and one-half of one warrant of the Company ("Warrant"), each whole Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Class A Common Share for $11.50 per share. The Units were sold at a price of $10.00 per unit, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $150,000,000.

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Company completed the private sale of 3,333,333 warrants (the "Private Placement Warrants") to the Company's sponsor, Bocimar Hunter NV (the "Sponsor") at a purchase price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrant, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $5,000,000. The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Warrants sold as part of the Units in the IPO, except that (i) the Private Placement Warrants are exercisable at the option of the holder on a cashless basis so long as they are held by the original purchaser or its permitted transferees and such cashless exercise is permitted under the laws of the Company's corporate jurisdiction, (ii) the Private Placement Warrants are not redeemable by the Company, and (iii) the Private Placement Warrants (including the Class A Common Shares issuable upon exercise thereof) may not, subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold until 30 days after the completion of the Company's initial business combination.

A total of $150,000,000, comprised of $147,000,000 of the proceeds from the IPO, including $5,250,000 of the underwriters' deferred discount, and $3,000,000 of the proceeds of the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, was placed in a trust account maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee. Except for the withdrawal of investment earnings to pay the Company's income taxes and working capital expenses, the funds held in the trust account will not be released from the trust account until the earliest of (i) the completion of the Company's initial business combination, (ii) the redemption of the Company's public shares if it is unable to complete its initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO, subject to applicable law, or (iii) the redemption of the Company's public shares properly submitted in connection with a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to the Company's amended and restated articles of incorporation that would affect the substance or timing of the Company's obligation to redeem 100% of its public shares if the Company has not consummated an initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO.

In connection with the IPO, the Company entered into the following agreements, forms of which were previously filed as exhibits to the Company registration statement on Form F-1 (File No. 333-214058):
