On July 29, 2022, the Company entered into a Convertible Note Purchase Agreement with Lubar Opportunities Fund I ("LOFI"), of which Mr. David Lubar, a Company director, manages in his capacity as President and CEO of Lubar & Co and Hallador Alternative Assets Fund, LLC ("HAAF"), of which Mr. David C. Hardie, a Company director, manages in his capacity as Managing Member of Hallador Management, LLC whereby the Company issued a convertible promissory note to LOFI in the amount of $5.0 million (the "Note") on July 29, 2022, will issue a convertible promissory note to LOFI in the amount of $3.0 million on August 8, 2022, and a convertible promissory note to HAAF in the amount of $1.0 million on August 8, 2022. The Convertible Note Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and representation rights and provisions under which the Company will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement covering the resale of shares of the Company’s Common Stock that may be issued upon conversion of any of the foregoing promissory notes. Further, the Company and the purchasers of the Notes will agree to indemnify one another in the event certain liabilities arise in connection with sale of Company Common Stock pursuant to the registration statement. The foregoing description of the Convertible Note Purchase Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full extent of such document, a copy of which is attached to this Report as
Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
The funds received from the Note will be used to provide additional working capital to the Company. The Note will mature on December 29, 2028 and will accrue interest at 8% per annum.
Pursuant to the terms of the Note, the holder of the Note may convert the entire principal balance and all accrued and unpaid interest then outstanding during the period beginning August 18, 2022 and ending on August 17, 2024 into shares of the Company Common Stock (the "Conversion Shares") at a per share conversion price of $6.254. Each Conversion Share will consist of one share of our Common Stock. The conversion price and number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the July 29, 2022 Note are subject to adjustment from time to time for any subdivision or consolidation of the Company’s Common Stock and other standard dilutive events.
At any time on or after August 18, 2025, the Company may, at its option and upon 30 days written notice provided to the holder, elect to redeem the Note (in whole and not in part) and the holder shall be obligated to surrender the Note, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the outstanding principal balance, together with any accrued but unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date. After receipt of such redemption notice from the Company, the holder may, at its option, elect to convert the principal balance and accrued interest into Conversion Shares by giving written notice of such election to the Company no later than five days prior to the date fixed for redemption. The foregoing description of the Note is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such document, a copy of which is attached to this Report as
Exhibit 10.2, and is incorporated herein by reference.
