8 (NASDAQ:CAFD) Files An 8-K Entry into a Material Definitive AgreementItem 1.01.Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On June 28, 2018, Solbright Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into Note Purchase Agreements (the “Purchase Agreements”) with certain “accredited investors” (collectively, the “Holders”), to which the Holders will purchase 10% Secured Convertible Promissory Notes of the Company (the “Convertible Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of up to $5,000,000 (the “Note Purchase and Sale Transaction”). The Company will use the net proceeds from the sale of the Convertible Notes to repay certain of the Company’s existing indebtedness and for working capital and general corporate purposes.
The Convertible Notes will have an aggregate principal balance of up to $5,000,000, and a stated maturity date of December 31, 2018. The principal on the Convertible Notes bears interest at a rate of 10% per annum, which is also payable on maturity. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the interest rate will increase by an additional 10% per annum. Amounts due under the Convertible Notes may be converted into shares (“Conversion Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (“Common Stock”) at any time at the option of the Holders, or automatically upon the occurrence of certain events, at a conversion price of $1.00 per share (the “Conversion Price”). Upon the occurrence of an event of default under the terms of the Convertible Notes, and the passage of 15 business days following the Holders giving notice of such event of default to the Company, the entire unpaid principal balance of the Convertible Note, together with any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, will become due and payable, without presentment, demand, or protest of any kind. The Conversion Price and number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Notes is subject to adjustment from time to time for subdivision or consolidation of shares, or upon the issuance by the Company of additional shares of Common Stock, or common stock equivalents, at a price lower than the Conversion Price while the Convertible Notes are outstanding, or other standard dilutive events. The Company has agreed to provide the Holders with registration rights covering the Conversion Shares.
In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes, the Company entered into a Pledge Agreement with the Holders, to which the Company granted the Holders, a security interest in 50% of the shares of the Company’s subsidiaries. All of the Convertible Notes issued under the Purchase Agreements rank pari passu with all other Convertible Notes issued in connection with the Note Purchase and Sale Transaction.
The Company used approximately $3,400,000 of the net proceeds from the Note Purchase and Sale Transaction to repay outstanding indebtedness and other obligations owing from the Company to certain existing noteholders (the “Existing Noteholders”) under convertible notes the Company issued to such Existing Noteholders (the “Existing Notes”) to Note Purchase Agreements between the Company and the Existing Noteholders, as amended, extended, restated, modified or supplemented. The Company also exchanged the remaining $1,113,437 due under certain of the Existing Notes for (a) an aggregate of 1,200,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, (b) additional warrants to purchase an aggregate of 900,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, at an exercise price of $0.38 per share, and (iii) replacement convertible promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $700,000, convertible into shares of the Company’s Common Stock at a price of $1.00 per share.
In addition, the Company entered into a commitment letter with one of the Existing Noteholders, to which, in consideration for the Company’s issuance to such Existing Noteholderof 1,500,000 restricted shares of the Company’s Common Stock, the Existing Noteholder agreed to provide the Company with up to $2,500,000 of additional funding, subject to mutual acceptance of such funding, before December 31, 2018.
