Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
As previously disclosed, SusGlobal Energy Corp. (the "Company") issued promissory notes on October 29, 2021, March 3, 2022, and March 7, 2022 (collectively, the "Promissory Notes"). The October 29, 2021 promissory note was in the principal amount of $1,471,000 and the March 3, 2022 and March 7, 2022 promissory notes were in a total principal amount of $2,400,000.
As also previously disclosed, on August 16, 2022, the Company was sent a notice of default from each holder of these Promissory Notes. The defaults were caused by the Promissory Notes not being repaid on or before the August 15, 2022 maturity date of each of the Promissory Notes. The notices of default allowed for a cure period of 5 trading days.
On September 15, 2022, the Company and the holders entered into an Amendment to the Promissory Notes (the "Amendment") which served as a cure to the previously issued default notices.
Pursuant to the Amendment, the parties agreed that the outstanding principal amount of each Promissory Note increased by ten (10%) percent. The October 29, 2021 promissory note now has a principal amount of $1,618,100 and the March 3, 2022 and March 7, 2022 promissory notes now have a total principal amount of $2,640,000.
The parties further agreed that the Maturity Date for each Promissory Note was extended to November 15, 2022 and, subject to certain conditions, the Maturity Date would be automatically extended to January 15, 2023 provided that the holders do not notify the Company in writing prior to the Maturity Date that the automatic extension of the Maturity Date has been cancelled.
The Company agreed to use its best efforts to promptly facilitate the conversion of the Promissory Note into shares of the Company's common stock.
With regard to the October Promissory Note, the holder agreed to not convert more than $100,000 in any one conversion notice and the holder agreed not to issue an additional conversion notice unless and until any previously issued conversion shares have been sold by the holder, or exceed 10% of the daily trading volume in selling the Company’s shares. In the event that the October Promissory Note is fully converted and the conversion shares sold, thereafter, the March Promissory Notes may both be converted at the holders’ discretion on a pari-passu basis; provided, however, that no conversion request shall exceed $50,000 for each March Promissory Note and each holder shall not sell more than 5% of the daily trading volume in selling the Company’s shares.
The foregoing description of the terms of the Amendment is a summary and does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 4.1 hereto.
Item 2.03 Creation of Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement by a Registrant.
