December Common Stock Offering

 

In December of 2020, the Company and the lenders under the Orion Credit Agreement (the “Selling Stockholders”) (see Note 14. “Debt” for the names of the lenders/Selling Stockholders) completed a public offering of the Company’s common stock. In connection with this public offering, the Company and the Selling Stockholders entered into an underwriting agreement pursuant to which (i) the Company agreed to issue and sell to the underwriters 19,822,219 shares of the Company’s common stock, plus up to 5,177,781 shares of common stock pursuant to an option to purchase additional shares, and (ii) the Selling Stockholders agreed to sell to the underwriters 14,696,320 shares of common stock, in each case at a price to the public of $6.50 per share. The underwriters exercised their option to purchase additional shares, resulting in the issuance and sale by the Company at the closing of the offering of a total of 25,000,000 shares of common stock. The offering closed on December 4, 2020.

 

Gross proceeds from the sale of common stock by the Company in the offering were $162.5 million. The Company did not receive any proceeds from the sale of common stock in the offering by the Selling Stockholders. Upon closing of the offering, the number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding was 319,706,758.

 

The Company and the Selling Stockholders paid underwriting discounts and commissions of $0.2275 per share, and net proceeds to the Company were approximately $156.3 million after deducting such underwriting discounts and commissions and other estimated offering expenses.

  

In addition, in connection with the offering, the Company and its directors and officers entered into a customary 90-day lock-up agreement with the underwriters party to the underwriting agreement. As part of the offering, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC waived lock-up restrictions entered into in connection with the common stock offering consummated on October 2, 2020 with respect to all of the shares sold in this offering by the Company and the Selling Stockholders. J.P. Morgan Securities LLC also waived all remaining lock-up restrictions applicable to the Selling Stockholders, including with respect to the then-outstanding warrants held by the Selling Stockholders to purchase up to 2,700,000 shares of common stock (which warrants were issued pursuant to the Orion Credit Agreement), and the Selling Stockholders did not enter into new lock-up agreements in connection with the offering.

 

Orion Credit Agreement -- Payoff of All Obligations

 

On November 30, 2020, the Company, its subsidiary guarantors, and the Orion Agent entered into a payoff letter with respect to the Orion Credit Agreement (the “Orion Payoff Letter”). Pursuant to the Orion Payoff Letter, on December 7, 2020, the Company paid a total of $87.3 million to the Orion Agent, representing the outstanding principal, accrued but unpaid interest, prepayment premium, fees, costs and other expenses due and owing under the Orion Facility and the Orion Credit Agreement and related loan documents, in full repayment of the Company’s outstanding indebtedness under the Orion Facility and the Orion Credit Agreement and related loan documents. In accordance with the Orion Payoff Letter, the aggregate prepayment premium set forth in the Orion Credit Agreement was reduced from approximately $14.9 million to $4 million and the Orion Agent, on behalf of itself and the lenders, agreed that any portion of the prepayment premium that would otherwise be required to be paid pursuant to the Orion Credit Agreement in excess of $4 million was waived by the Orion Agent and the lenders.

 

Concurrently with the Orion Agent’s receipt of full payment pursuant to the Orion Payoff Letter, the Orion Agent released all of the collateral from the liens granted under the security documents associated with the Orion Facility (which included the release of $11.2 million of restricted cash to the Company, which became unrestricted cash), and the Company and its subsidiaries were unconditionally released from their respective obligations under the Orion Credit Agreement (and related loan documents) and the Orion Facility without further action. With the termination of the Orion Facility and the Orion Credit Agreement and related loan documents, the lenders no longer have the right to appoint representatives to attend the Company’s Board of Director meetings as observers.

 

Warrant Exercise

 

On December 7, 2020, all remaining Orion Warrants were exercised to purchase a total of 2,700,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for an aggregate exercise price of $653,400 (or $0.242 per share).

 

Enbridge/Series 1 Preferred Shares – Payoff of All Obligations

 

In December 2020, the Company, FCE Ltd., and Enbridge entered into a payoff letter (the “Enbridge Payoff Letter”) pursuant to which the Company paid all amounts owed to Enbridge under the terms of the Series 1 Preferred Shares. As of December 31, 2020, the amount owed to Enbridge under the Series 1 Preferred Shares totaled Cdn. $27.4 million, which included Cdn. $4.3 million of principal and Cdn. $23.1 million of accrued dividends.

Concurrent with receipt of the payment from the Company, Enbridge surrendered its Series 1 Preferred Shares in FCE Ltd., and the Guarantee and the January 2020 Letter Agreement (in each case as defined above) were terminated. All obligations related to the Series 1 Preferred Shares were extinguished upon payment.
