Note 9 – Convertible debentures and loan due to related party
On December 23, 2013, the Company entered into a Senior Convertible Promissory Note (the "Note") with Michaelson Capital Special Finance Fund LP, ("Michaelson"), for the principal amount of $3,000,000 with interest at 4% per annum for a term of three years. On April 1, 2016, the Company amended the Note increasing the total principal amount to $3,150,000 increasing the conversion price to $3.54 from $3.37, and extending the term until December 23, 2018. The amended Note was a senior secured obligation which paid interest only on a monthly basis in arrears at a rate of 4% per annum, unless earlier converted in accordance with the terms of the agreement prior to such date. The Note was secured by an all asset lien and was senior in right of payment to any unsecured indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Note.
On December 14, 2017, the Company, through principal payment of $3,150,000 to Michaelson (the "Payment"), terminated the Senior Convertible Promissory Note with Michaelson. Through the Note, Michaelson was the Company's principle debt holder and a beneficial holder of approximately 5% of the Company's shares outstanding. There were no pre-payment penalties paid by the Company, as Michaelson provided a waiver of the pre-payment penalties that were contained in the Note. By completing the Payment, the Company has satisfied all of its obligations under the Note and the Note was cancelled. Below is a summary of the terms of the Note, as amended.
The Company could prepay all of the outstanding principal and interest due and payable under this Note in full, at any time prior to the maturity date for an amount equal to 120% of the then outstanding principal and interest due and payable as of the date of such prepayment.
In connection with the acquisition of American DG Energy, the Company assumed a loan from John N. Hatsopoulos, the Company's Co-Chief Executive Officer and a Company Director. The loan is in the amount of $850,000 and bears interest at 6%, payable quarterly, and matures and becomes due and payable on May 25, 2018.
