On April 20, 2020, UAL entered into a warrant agreement with the U.S. Treasury Department, pursuant to which UAL agreed to issue to the U.S. Treasury Department warrants to purchase up to approximately 4.6 million shares of common stock, pro rata in conjunction with the initial issuance of, and increases to, the principal amount outstanding under the PSP Note (the "PSP Warrants"). Through June 30, 2020, UAL issued PSP Warrants to purchase up to approximately 4.2 million shares of common stock, with such warrants accounted for as equity instruments. The PSP Warrants have a strike price of $31.50 per share (which was the closing price of UAL's common stock on The Nasdaq Stock Market on April 9, 2020). The PSP Warrants will expire five years after issuance, and are exercisable either through net share settlement, in cash or in shares of UAL common stock, at UAL's option. The PSP Warrants contain customary anti-dilution provisions and registration rights and are freely transferable. Pursuant to the terms of the PSP Warrants, PSP Warrant holders do not have any voting rights. The relative fair value of the PSP Warrants is recorded within stockholder's equity and as a discount reducing the CARES Act grant credit.
If the Company borrows any amounts under the CARES Act Loan Program, UAL expects to issue to the U.S. Treasury Department additional warrants to purchase shares of UAL common stock. For example, if the Company borrows the full amount currently available of $4.5 billion, the Company would issue warrants to purchase approximately 14.2 million shares of UAL common stock at a strike price of $31.50 per share (which was the closing price of UAL's common stock on The Nasdaq Stock Market on April 9, 2020), on the same terms as the PSP Warrants. If the Company borrows less than the full amount, the amount of warrants issued is expected to be reduced by a proportional amount.
On April 21, 2020, UAL entered into an underwriting agreement (the "Underwriting Agreement") with Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC and Barclays Capital Inc. (collectively, the "Underwriters"), relating to the issuance and sale by UAL of 39,250,000 shares of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share, at a price to the public of $26.50 per share. Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, UAL granted the Underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 3,925,000 shares of UAL common stock on the same terms, and such option was exercised in full, resulting in total proceeds of approximately $1.1 billion.
On June 15, 2020, UAL entered into an equity distribution agreement (the "Distribution Agreement") with Citigroup Global Markets Inc., BofA Securities, Inc. and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC (collectively, the "Managers"), relating to the issuance and sale from time to time by UAL (the "ATM Offering"), through the Managers, of up to 28,000,000 shares of UAL's common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Shares"). Sales of the Shares, if any, under the Distribution Agreement may be made in any transactions that are deemed to be "at the market offerings" as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Under the terms of the Distribution Agreement, UAL may also sell Shares to any Manager, as principal for its own account, at a price agreed upon at the time of sale. If UAL sells Shares to a Manager as principal, UAL will enter into a separate agreement with such Manager. As of June 30, 2020, 0.5 million shares were sold in the ATM Offering at an average price of $41.05 per share, with proceeds totaling approximately $22 million.
