TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / May 6, 2022 / Eagle Graphite Incorporated (TSXV:EGA) (“Eagle Graphite”, “Eagle”, “We”, or the “Company”) has entered into a binding Letter of Intent (“LOI”) restructuring the terms of approximately US$2.4 mln of secured debt associated with a supply agreement that has remained unfulfilled since 2013.
The LOI, signed on May 5, 2022, provides for Eagle to:
- Make three payments of US$75,000 by July 31, 2022, September 30, 2022, and March 31, 2023, respectively.
- Make available for pick up, from inventory, 30 tonnes of graphite by June 30, 2022. (The agreed value of the shipped graphite will be deducted from the total amount due.)
- Repay the balance of the outstanding principal of US$1,532,000 by September 30, 2023.
- Upon satisfaction of a. through c. above the debt would be considered fully paid.
Furthermore, providing payments are made as scheduled:
- The purchaser has agreed to forbear from enforcing its security, and
- Accumulated interest of more than US$870,000 would effectively be forgiven.
The CEO of Eagle Graphite, Jamie Deith, states “This agreement is an exciting achievement for us. This binding LOI markedly improves our financial situation, and is a crucial first step in our efforts to move the project forward. We are grateful to have a customer that supports our objective of being a long term reliable domestic source of graphite for North America.”
As of the Company’s most recent quarter end, the value of the unsatisfied commitment stood at US$1,532,000 (the “Principal”) plus accrued interest of no less than US$867,918. Prior to executing the LOI the combined liability of no less than US$2,399,918 (approximately C$3,050,000) stood due upon demand.
