Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

The information set forth in Item 3 of this Statement is incorporated by reference in its entirety into this Item 6.

June Securities Purchase Agreement

On June 29, 2021, Spring Creek entered into the June Securities Purchase Agreement with the Issuer. On June 30, 2021, pursuant to the terms of the June Securities Purchase Agreement, the Issuer sold and issued to Spring Creek an aggregate of 3,462,124 Public Shares at a purchase price equal to $21.663 per share, for aggregate gross proceeds of $75.0 million.

The June Securities Purchase Agreement required the Issuer to prepare and file a registration statement with the SEC, within 75 days of its closing to register the resale of the Public Shares issued pursuant to the June Securities Purchase Agreement, and to use commercially reasonable efforts to have such registration statement declared effective within 30 days following the filing of the registration statement if there is no review by the SEC, or within 120 days following the filing of the registration statement in the event of such a review.

The June Securities Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, registration rights, warranties and agreements by the Issuer, customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Issuer, including for liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), termination provisions, and other obligations and rights of the parties. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Purchase Agreement were made only for purposes of such agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreement, and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties.

The Issuer paid Nomura Greentech Capital Advisors Securities, LLC a financial advisory fee of $1,312,500 in connection with the transaction contemplated by the June Securities Purchase Agreement.

The foregoing description of the June Securities Purchase Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is attached to this report as Exhibit 99.1.

Note Purchase Agreement

On February 15, 2022, the Issuer entered into the Note Purchase Agreement with Wood River, relating to the issuance and sale $100.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the Notes. The Notes were issued and sold on February 18, 2022 (the “Note Closing Date”).

CUSIP: 04523Y105

Page: Page 8 of 14

Issuance of Convertible Notes. The Notes are governed by a form of indenture (the “Indenture”) incorporated by reference into the Notes. The Notes will bear interest at the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus 5.50% per annum if interest is paid in cash (“Cash Interest”), or, if interest is paid in kind (through an increase in the principal amount of the outstanding Notes or through the issuance of additional Notes), at SOFR plus 6.50% per annum (“PIK Interest”). Under the terms of the investment, SOFR has a floor of 1% and a cap of 3%. The Issuer can elect to make any interest payment through Cash Interest, PIK Interest or any combination thereof. Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on June 30 and December 30, commencing on June 30, 2022. It is expected that the Notes will mature on February 18, 2027, subject to earlier conversion, redemption or repurchase.

The Notes are convertible at the option of the holder at any time until the business day prior to the maturity date, including in connection with a redemption by the Issuer. The Notes are convertible into Public Shares, based on an initial conversion rate of 28.623257 Public Shares per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes (which is equal to an initial conversion price of $34.936625 per share (the “Conversion Price”)), in each case subject to customary anti-dilution and other adjustments (as described in the Indenture). If the closing price per share of the Public Shares on the New York Stock Exchange is at least 130% of the Conversion Price for 20 consecutive trading days, the Issuer may elect to convert the principal and accrued interest owing under the Notes, plus a make-whole amount equal to the sum of the present values of the remaining interest payments that would have otherwise been payable from the date of such conversion, redemption or repurchase, as applicable, through maturity (the “Make-Whole Amount”), into the Public Shares at the Conversion Price.

The Notes will be redeemable by the Issuer at any time and from time to time in the event that the volume weighted average price of the Public Shares for the 10 trading days immediately preceding the date on which the Issuer provides the redemption notice has been at least 130% of the Conversion Price then in effect, at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount of such Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding the redemption date, plus the Make-Whole Amount.

With certain exceptions, upon the occurrence of certain fundamental changes described in the Indenture (each, a “Fundamental Change”), the holders of the Notes may require that the Issuer repurchase all or part of the principal amount of the Notes at a purchase price of 100% of the principal amount of such Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Fundamental Change repurchase date, plus the Make-Whole Amount.

The Indenture includes customary “events of default,” which may result in the acceleration of the maturity of the Notes under the Indenture. The Indenture will also include customary covenants for convertible notes of this type.

The Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Issuer and rank equal in right of payment to all senior unsecured indebtedness of the Issuer, and will rank senior in right of payment to any indebtedness that is contractually subordinated to the Notes.

Standstill Obligations. Pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement, Wood River and Koch have agreed, subject to certain exceptions, that during the period commencing on the Note Closing Date and ending on the one (1) year anniversary of the Note Closing Date (the “Standstill Period”), Koch will not, among other things: (i) acquire any securities of the Issuer if, immediately after such acquisition, Koch would collectively own in the aggregate more than 20.0% of the then outstanding voting securities of the Issuer, (ii) propose or seek to effect any tender or exchange offer, merger or other business combination involving the Issuer or its securities, or make any public statement with respect to such transaction, (iii) make, or in any way participate in any “proxy contest” or other solicitation of proxies, (iv) seek the appointment of any director, or (v) call or seek to call any meeting of stockholders or other referendum or consent solicitation.

Transfer and Conversion Restrictions; Registration Rights. The Note Purchase Agreement restricts Wood River’s and Koch Industries’ ability to transfer or hedge the Notes or the Public Shares, subject to certain exceptions specified in the Note Purchase Agreement. In particular, Wood River will be restricted from transferring the Notes, other than to customary permitted transferees. Prior to the two-year anniversary of the Note Closing Date, Wood River will be restricted from transferring or entering into an agreement that transfers the economic consequences of ownership of the shares underlying the Notes. These restrictions do not apply to, among others, transfers to affiliates. The Note Purchase Agreement restricts Wood River from transferring the Notes or the shares underlying the Notes at any time to any activist investor or competitor of the Issuer.

The Note Purchase Agreement requires the Issuer to prepare and file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), within 75 days of the Note Closing Date to register the resale of the shares underlying the Notes, and to use commercially reasonable efforts to have such registration statement declared effective within 30 days following the filing of the registration statement if there is no review by the SEC, or within 120 days following the filing of the registration statement in the event of such a review.
