Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On August 7, 2020, Taronis Fuels, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) closed a private placement of Debentures and Warrants (defined below) (the “Offering”). In connection with the Offering the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with several accredited investors (each a “Purchaser”, and collectively the “Purchasers”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to sell to the Purchasers (i) 12.5% original issue discount senior subordinated secured convertible debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $6,665,625 (the “Debentures”), and (ii) common stock purchase warrants for the purchase of 74,062,500 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Warrants”) (collectively, the “Transaction”). The Company received a total of $5,925,000 in gross proceeds from the Offering, taking into account the 12.5% original issue discount, before deducting offering expenses and commissions, including the placement agent’s commission of $605,376, reimbursement of the placement agent’s and lead investor’s legal fees in the aggregate amount of $38,325, and escrow agent fees of $4,000. The Company also agreed to issue to the placement agent, as additional compensation, a common stock purchase warrant for the purchase of 7,406,250 shares of the Company’s common stock, in the same form as the Warrants. The Company has the discretion to re-open the Offering on a limited basis until September 15, 2020 to maximize the gross proceeds of $6,500,000 authorized under the Offering, which if maximized, would increase the total face amount of Debentures sold to $7,312,500 with corresponding increases in the number of Warrants granted and fees incurred, all in accordance with the Transaction documents.

 

The Debentures mature one year from their initial issuance date (the “Maturity Date”), subject to a three-month extension at the Company’s option (such extended date, the “Extended Maturity Date”). The Debentures bear interest at 8% per annum payable quarterly, subject to an increase if an event of default occurs under the Debentures (each an “Event of Default”). The Debentures are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at any time following the original issue date of the Debentures at the Purchasers’ option at a conversion price of $0.09 per share (the “Conversion Price”). The Conversion Price of the Debentures is subject to certain adjustments as provided in the Debentures, including but not limited to, an adjustment after the occurrence of an Event of Default to the lesser of (i) $0.09 and (ii) 80% of the lowest closing price of the Company’s common stock during the twenty (20) trading day period immediately preceding the applicable conversion date. The Debentures also contain certain price protection provisions providing for adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Debentures and the Conversion Price in case of future dilutive offerings. The Debentures are subject to mandatory conversion in the event the Company closes an equity offering of at least $5,000,000 resulting in the listing of the Company’s common stock on a national securities exchange. The Debentures rank senior to all existing and future indebtedness of the Company and its subsidiaries, except for certain outstanding senior indebtedness. The Company may prepay the Debentures at any time prior to the Maturity Date at an amount equal to 120% of the total outstanding amount under the Debentures. If the Company exercises its option with respect to the three-month extension of the Maturity Date, then (i) the Debentures shall increase to an amount equal to 105% of the total outstanding amount under the Debentures and (ii) the Company may prepay the Debentures at any time prior to the Extended Maturity Date at an amount equal to 140% of the total outstanding amount under the Debentures. The Debentures contain customary events of default relating to, among other things, payment defaults as well as breach of representations, warranties, and/or covenants in the transaction documents executed in connection with the Debentures. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, an amount equal to 130% of the principal, accrued but unpaid interest, and other amounts owing under the Debentures will immediately come due and payable at the election of each Purchaser, and all amounts due under the Debentures will bear interest at an increased rate.

 

The Warrants are exercisable for three years from their issuance date at an exercise price of $0.09 per share (the “Exercise Price”). The Warrants also contain certain price protection provisions providing for adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and the Exercise Price in case of future dilutive offerings, except in the case of one or more Exempt Issuances (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).

 

The Company’s obligations under the Debentures are secured by all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries pursuant to a security agreement entered into in connection with the Offering (the “Security Agreement”) by and among the Company, its subsidiaries, and the Purchasers, subject to certain outstanding senior indebtedness. The Company’s obligations under the Debentures are guaranteed by the Company’s subsidiaries pursuant to a subsidiary guarantee entered into in connection with the Offering (the “Subsidiary Guarantee”).

 

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants of the Company, including, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, covenants that restrict the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries, without the prior written consent of the Purchasers, to incur certain additional indebtedness and issue certain equity securities. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Purchasers have certain participation rights in certain future equity and debt offerings by the Company or any of its subsidiaries until the earlier of (i) the date that is 24 months after the closing or (ii) the date that the Purchaser no longer beneficially owns its Debentures and Warrants, subject to customary exceptions.

 

The foregoing description of the terms of the Debentures, Warrants, Purchase Agreement, Security Agreement, Subsidiary Guarantee, and the transactions contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of Debenture, form of Warrant, form of Purchase Agreement, form of Security Agreement, and form of Subsidiary Guarantee, copies of which are filed hereto as Exhibits 10.1, 4.1, 10.2, 10.3, and 10.4, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.
