Item 1.01Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

Item 2.03Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation Under an Off Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant

 

On December 26, 2017, Workhorse Group Inc. (the “Company”) announced its plans to spin-off SureFly, Inc., a Delaware company and indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“SureFly”) which encompasses the Company’s aviation division into a separate publicly traded company. The Company intends to retain a portion of the ownership of SureFly following the completion of the spin-off. The press release regarding the spin-off of SureFly is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

 

In addition, on December 26, 2017, as part of its initial efforts to spin-off SureFly, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with several existing institutional investors (the “Spin-Off Investors”) pursuant to which the company issued original issue discount Senior Secured Notes (the “Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $5,750,000 in consideration of gross proceeds of $5,000,000 paid by the Spin-Off Investors.

 

The Notes do not bear interest and mature on June 30, 2018. Workhorse Technologies Inc., an Ohio company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the company (“WTI”) and SureFly entered into a Guaranty with the Spin-Off Investors, SureFly entered into a Pledge and Security Agreement with the Spin-Off Investors and WTI entered into a Pledge Agreement with the Spin-Off Investors.

 

The Spin-Off Investors have the right but not the obligation to convert the Notes into Series A Preferred Stock of SureFly at a pre-money valuation of $33,000,000 and warrants to purchase a number of shares of common stock equal to 30% of the number of shares of common stock underlying the Series A Preferred Stock at an exercise price equal to 125% of the conversion price of the Series A Preferred Stock. 

 

The issuance of the Notes is being made in reliance upon an exemption from registration provided under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

 

The above descriptions of the agreements and the Notes are qualified in their entirety by reference to the forms attached hereto as exhibits.
