1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On October 7, 2020, the Southern Ohio Port Authority ("SOPA") issued certain revenue Bonds (as defined below) pursuant to an Indenture of Trust dated as of October 1, 2020 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Indenture"), between SOPA and UMB Bank, N.A., as Trustee ("Trustee"), and loaned the proceeds from their sale to PureCycle: Ohio LLC ("PCO"), an Ohio limited liability company and indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of PureCycle Technologies, Inc. (the "Company"), pursuant to a Loan Agreement dated as of October 1, 2020, between SOPA and PCO (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Loan Agreement") to be used to, among other things, acquire, construct and equip the Company's first commercial-scale recycling facility in Lawrence County, Ohio (the "Ironton Facility"). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture.
The Bonds were offered in three series, including (i) Exempt Facility Revenue Bonds (PureCycle Project), Tax-Exempt Series 2020A ("Series 2020A Bonds"); (ii) Subordinate Exempt Facility Revenue Bonds (PureCycle Project), Tax-Exempt Series 2020B ("Series 2020B Bonds"); and (iii) Subordinated Exempt Facility Revenue Bonds (PureCycle Project), Taxable Series 2020C ("Series 2020C Bonds" and, together with the Series 2020A Bonds and the Series 2020B Bonds, the "Bonds").
All of the Bonds are Outstanding under the Indenture. PureCycle Technologies LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company ("PCT LLC"), purchased $246,750,000 in aggregate principal amount of Bonds Outstanding under the Indenture on March 5, 2024, of which $216,750,000 in aggregate principal amount are Series 2020A Bonds.
On May 7, 2024, PCT LLC and Pure Plastic LLC ("Pure Plastic"), a Delaware limited liability company, executed a bond purchase agreement (as subsequently amended and restated to reflect the appropriate denomination of bonds, the "Amended and Restated Bond Purchase Agreement"), whereby Pure Plastic purchased approximately $94.3 million in aggregate par amount of Bonds owned by PCT LLC (the "Purchased Bonds"), including (i) a portion of the Series 2020A Bonds, (ii) all of the Series 2020B Bonds, and (iii) all of the Series 2020C Bonds, at a purchase price of $800 per $1,000 principal amount of the Purchased Bonds. Affiliates of Pure Plastic are greater than 5% beneficial owners of the Company.
On May 10, 2024, Pure Plastic executed a Payoff and Release Letter (the "Payoff and Release Letter"), which memorialized extinguishment of the Company's obligations under the $40 million term loan provided to the Company pursuant to the Term Loan Credit Agreement ("Term Loan Credit Agreement") dated as of May 8, 2023, and subsequently amended, among the Guarantors (as defined therein) and Pure Plastic (as Lender, Administrative Agent, and Security Agent), which was scheduled to mature on December 31, 2025 (the "Term Loan Facility").
The Company was also required to pay a 12% prepayment premium on the outstanding principal and interest paid in order to prepay the Term Loan Facility (the "Prepayment Premium"), plus certain expenses. The Company issued warrants ("Series B Warrants") to Pure Plastic pursuant to the Series B Warrant Agreement to satisfy the Prepayment Premium (the "Series B Warrant Agreement"). The Series B Warrants entitle Pure Plastic to purchase approximately 3.1 million shares of the Company's Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share any time after six months from the execution of the Series B Warrant Agreement. The Series B Warrants are expected to expire on December 1, 2030.
The Company is also party to a Revolving Credit Facility pursuant to a credit agreement (the "Revolving Credit Agreement") dated as of March 15, 2023, with PureCycle Technologies Holdings Corp. and PCT LLC (the "Guarantors"), Sylebra Capital Partners Master Fund, LTD, Sylebra Capital Parc Master Fund, and Sylebra Capital Menlo Master Fund (collectively, the "Lenders"), and Madison Pacific Trust Limited (the "Administrative Agent" and "Security Agent"). In conjunction with PCT LLC's sale of approximately $94.3 million of Bonds, on May 10, 2024,  the Company, the Guarantors, the Administrative Agent, the Security Agent and the Lenders executed a Limited Consent and Fifth Amendment to the Credit Agreement ("Limited Consent and Fifth Amendment to Credit Agreement") to permit the Disposition of Bonds (as defined therein), as well as to provide certain administrative revisions to eliminate the Intecreditor Agreement (as defined therein) and references to the Term Loan Credit Agreement. The lenders and their affiliates are greater than 5% beneficial owners of the Company.
The foregoing descriptions of the
Amended and Restated Bond Purchase Agreement, Payoff and Release Letter, Series B Warrant Agreement, and Limited Consent and Fifth Amendment to Credit Agreement are not complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Amended and Restated Bond Purchase Agreement, Payoff and Release Letter, Series B Warrant Agreement, and Limited Consent and Fifth Amendment to Credit Agreement, which are attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 through 10.4.
Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
The information contained under "Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement" above is incorporated here by reference. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture), the amount outstanding under the Bonds may be accelerated.
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
The information contained under "Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement" above is incorporated here by reference. The Company offered and sold the Series B Warrants to Pure Plastic in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") and Regulation D thereunder. Pure Plastic represented that it is an "accredited investor" within the meaning of Regulation D under the Securities Act and that it acquired the securities for investment purposes, and not with a current view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution, resale, pledging, fractionalization, subdivision or other disposition thereof. The securities are not registered under the Securities Act and such securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws.
