Note 14 —Commitments and Contingencies

Environmental Matters

The Company is subject to federal, state, local and foreign environmental laws and regulations. The Company does not anticipate any expenditures to comply with such laws and regulations that would have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity. The Company believes that its operations comply, in all material respects, with applicable federal, state, local and foreign environmental laws and regulations.

Litigation, Claims and Contingencies

The Company may become party to various legal actions that arise in the ordinary course of its business. The Company is also subject to audit by tax and other authorities for varying periods in various federal, state, local and foreign jurisdictions, and disputes may arise during the course of these audits. It is impossible to determine the ultimate liabilities that the Company may incur resulting from any of these lawsuits, claims, proceedings, audits, commitments, contingencies and related matters or the timing of these liabilities, if any. If these matters were to ultimately be resolved unfavorably, it is possible that such an outcome could have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity. The Company does not, however, anticipate such an outcome and it believes the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

Long-Term Take-or-Pay Natural Gas Purchase Contracts

The Company has entered into quarterly fixed price natural gas purchase contracts with take-or-pay commitments extending through March 2025. As of December 31, 2024, the fixed commitments under these contracts totaled approximately $1.5 million for the year ending December 31, 2025.

Rimere Loan Commitment

In November 2022, the Company entered into a note purchase agreement (the “2022 Note Purchase Agreement”) with Rimere. Pursuant to the 2022 Note Purchase Agreement, the Company irrevocably committed to make available up to $5.5 million in delayed draw loans in exchange for convertible promissory notes issued by Rimere. The convertible promissory notes carry an interest rate of 7% per annum, compounded quarterly, and was to mature in May 2024, subject to certain, specified prepayment clauses. Funding from the loan commitment was used to meet Rimere’s working capital requirements, and, by the end of the third quarter of 2023, the Company had fully funded the $5.5 million loan commitment. In January 2024, the 2022 Note Purchase Agreement was amended, extending the maturity date to the end

of December 2024. In December 2024, the 2022 Note Purchase Agreement was amended, extending the maturity date to the end of June 2025.

Concurrently, through a separately executed note purchase agreement, dated January 8, 2024 (the “2024 Note Purchase Agreement”), the Company agreed to make available up to $10.0 million in additional delayed draw loans to fund Rimere’s working capital needs. In connection with the $10.0 million loan commitment, the related convertible promissory notes issued by Rimere bear interest at 8% per annum, compounded quarterly, and have a maturity date of December 31, 2024, subject to certain, specified prepayment and event of default clauses set forth in the 2024 Note Purchase Agreement. As of December 31, 2024, $6.0 million has been funded by the Company pursuant to the 2024 Note Purchase Agreement. In December 2024, the 2024 Note Purchase Agreement was amended, extending the maturity date to the end of June 2025.
