On April 22, 2022, the Company entered into a Master Equipment Financing Agreement with Trinity Capital Inc., as the Lender (the “Financing Agreement”). The Financing Agreement provides for up to $35 million of borrowings to finance the Company’s acquisition of blockchain computing equipment. The Company received a loan of $20 million at closing, with the remaining $15 million fundable upon the Company's request, if requested no later than December 31, 2022, subject to certain customary conditions. The loan draws have a term of 36 months from issuance with a monthly rate factor of at least 0.032198 payable monthly on the total cost of the equipment purchased with such borrowing. The Financing Agreement contains standard financial reporting requirements and certain other affirmative obligations, failure of which to comply with could result in an event of default under the Financing Agreement. In such an event, the Lender could exercise certain remedies including, but not limited to, declaring that all amounts outstanding under the Financing Agreement, together with accrued interest, be declared immediately due and payable. The Company received funding of $20 million at close, which included closing costs of $701,624 and security deposit of $643,960. |
