Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On
August 6, 2024, we entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (the “Note Purchase Agreement”), by and between the Company and
the purchaser identified therein (the “Purchaser”), pursuant to which we may issue up to a maximum of $75,000,000 in aggregate
principal amount of 6.50% Convertible Notes due 2029 (the “Convertible Notes”). Pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement,
we agreed to issue and sell, and the Purchaser agreed to purchase, up to $25,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of the Convertible
Notes (the “Initial Notes”). Thereafter, upon the mutual agreement of the Company and the Purchaser, we may issue additional
Convertible Notes for sale in subsequent offerings (the “Additional Notes”), or issue additional notes with modified pricing
terms (the “New Notes”), in the aggregate for both the Additional Notes and the New Notes, up to a maximum of $50,000,000
in one or more private offerings. The Purchaser will acquire, and we will issue, up to $25 million of the Initial Notes on or about August
14, 2024 (the “Initial Closing Date”), and thereafter at such time and date as the Purchaser and the Company mutually agree
to purchase and sell any Additional Notes. Interest on the Convertible Notes will be paid quarterly in arrears on March 30, June 30,
September 30, and December 30, at a rate of 6.50% per year, beginning September 30, 2024. The Convertible Notes will mature on August
14, 2029 and may be redeemed in whole or in part at any time or from time to time at our option on or after August 6, 2027 upon the fulfillment
of certain conditions. The Convertible Notes will be convertible into shares of our common stock at the Purchaser’s sole discretion
at an initial conversion rate of 129.0323 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Convertible Notes, subject to adjustment
as provided in the Note Purchase Agreement. The net proceeds from the offering will be used to repay outstanding indebtedness, make investments
in accordance with our investment objective and investment strategy, and for other general corporate purposes. The Note Purchase Agreement
includes customary representations, warranties, and covenants by the Company.
The
description above is qualified in its entirety by reference to the copy of the Note Purchase Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1
to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
