tem 1.01.     Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On June 20, 2018, Gevo, Inc. (the "Company") entered into an amendment (the "Amendment") to the At-The-Market Offering Agreement, dated February 13, 2018 (as amended, the "Sales Agreement"), with H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (the "Agent"), which provides for the sale and issuance from time to time of common stock of the Company in an "at-the-market" offering (the "ATM Offering"). The Amendment, among other things, provides for an increase in the amount of common stock for issuance and sale under the ATM Offering by up to an additional $10 million of shares of common stock (the "Shares"). The original Sales Agreement provided for the sale and issuance of up to $5 million of shares of common stock in the ATM Offering. To date, the Company has issued 750,843 shares of common stock under the ATM Offering for gross proceeds of approximately $4.97 million, including 745,635 shares of common stock for gross proceeds of approximately $4.9 million since March 31, 2018.
The Shares have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), pursuant to the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-211370), declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") on August 2, 2016 (the "Registration Statement"), and a prospectus, which consists of a base prospectus filed with the Registration Statement, and a prospectus supplement, dated June 20, 2018. Sales of the Shares, if any, may be made by any method permitted by law deemed to be an "at-the-market offering" as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) of the Securities Act, including sales made directly on or through the Nasdaq Capital Market or any other existing trading market for the Shares, in negotiated transactions at market prices prevailing at the time of sale or at prices related to such prevailing market prices and/or any other method permitted by law.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from this offering to fund working capital and for other general corporate purposes, which may include the repayment of outstanding indebtedness.
The Sales Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company, including obligations of the Company to indemnify the Agent for certain liabilities under the Securities Act. Under the terms of the Sales Agreement, the Company will pay the Agent a commission of 2.5% of the gross proceeds from sales of the Shares.
This Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of the Company's common stock in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state.
The foregoing description of the Sales Agreement and the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Sales Agreement and the Amendment, copies of which are filed herewith as Exhibits 1.1 and 1.2, and are incorporated herein by reference. A legal opinion relating to the Shares is filed herewith as Exhibit 5.1.
Item 3.02.     Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
The information provided in Item 8.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02.

al Conversion of
2020
Notes
On June 19, 2018, the Company received conversion notices from the holders of its 12.0% convertible senior secured notes due 2020 (the "2020 Notes") to convert approximately $2.91 million in aggregate principal amount of 2020 Notes for an aggregate of 238,029 shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion rate of 0.0679 shares of common stock per $1 principal amount of 2020 Notes. Upon completion, these conversions reduced the outstanding principal amount of the 2020 Notes to approximately $13.92 million. The Company expects that the holders of its 2020 Notes may continue to convert the outstanding 2020 Notes into the Company's common stock in the future from time to time based on market conditions.

During June 2018, the Company received notices of exercise from 10 holders of its Series K warrants to purchase common stock (the "Series K Warrants") to issue an aggregate of 276,465 shares of common stock for total gross proceeds of approximately $1.25 million.
