On June 28, 2024, we entered into amendment number six to the fifth amended and restated senior secured credit facility to modify certain of the covenants and other terms to permit us to enter into the second lien credit agreement (as defined below) and to incur indebtedness and make certain other conforming changes in connection with our entry into the second lien credit agreement.
June 2024, Second Lien Term Loan, due June 28, 2029
On June 28, 2024, we entered into a second lien credit agreement which provided a term loan in a principal amount of $100,000 with a maturity date of June 28, 2029. The term loan bears an interest rate of SOFR (5.353% at June 30, 2024), plus an applicable margin of 5.875% per annum. Interest is payable quarterly and unpaid interest and principal is due in the aggregate on June 28, 2029. At closing, we incurred $3,623 in lenders fees and debt issuance costs. Proceeds from this term loan in the amount of $82,105 and $15,000 were used to pay towards our revolving credit facility and the outstanding portion of the DDTLA, respectively, under our senior secured credit facility at closing.
April 2024, Term Notes, due June 30, 2042
On April 5, 2024, an omnibus amendment and reaffirmation agreement was executed with reference to the note purchase and private shelf agreement, dated as of July 27, 2021, and two new series B notes (first lien and second lien) were authorized in the amounts of $92,512 and $12,657, with a maturity date of June 30, 2042. Gross proceeds from the initial issuance on April 5, 2024 were $83,282 and $12,292 with the remainder to be issued upon achieving certain permitting-related and other
administrative conditions. The notes bear interest at fixed rates of 6.20% and 8.00%, respectively, per annum and the interest is payable quarterly commencing September 30, 2024. At closing, we incurred $1,296 in lenders fees and debt issuance costs. Proceeds from these notes in the amount of $86,462 were used to pay a portion of the August 2023 construction credit facility. In connection with these notes, we recorded two derivative instruments for make-whole provisions with initial values of $8,733 and $647, respectively, which were recorded as debt discount.

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we drew down an additional $38,280 and at June 30, 2024, $373,852 was outstanding under this facility, net of unamortized debt discount and issuance costs.

We were in default on this credit facility due to administrative errors, for which a waiver was received on June 27, 2024.
Debt Instruments - Energy Asset Acquisitions
As discussed in Note 6, on August 4, 2023, we acquired an energy asset project. The purchase price for phase 1 was $87,964, of which $5,000 was paid in cash, $46,694 was financed through a seller’s note, and we assumed a construction loan on the energy asset project for $36,270. During the year ended December 31, 2023, we paid $18,400 in principal on the seller’s note. In January 2024, the purchase price was increased by $1,147 and we paid off the seller’s note in the amount of $29,441.
On February 26, 2024, the construction loan in the amount of $36,270 was converted into a term loan and has a maturity date of April 2030. The term loan bears a base SOFR interest rate of 5.35% at June 30, 2024, and an applicable margin of 1.635% per annum for four years after the term conversion date and 1.76% per annum for the following two years. The interest and principal are paid quarterly commencing on June 30, 2024. We failed to achieve the final conditions required to convert the term loan on or prior to June 30, 2024, therefore, the $35,696 outstanding balance was classified as current debt at June 30, 2024. We are negotiating a waiver with the lender that will become effective when the final conditions are met, which is expected to be during the quarter ending September 30, 2024.
In the second phase, which closed on January 12, 2024, we acquired BCE, including its interest in a consolidated joint venture and its interests in project subsidiaries developing or with rights to develop solar, battery, and microgrid assets for an adjusted purchase price of $47,956, of which $9,839 was paid in cash and $32,500 was financed through a seller’s note. The note bore interest at a fixed rate of 5.0% per annum and the principal and interest was due in August 2024. The note was amended on August 2, 2024 to provide that it be paid in four installments through December 16, 2024 and bears interest at a rate of 5.0% per annum through August 2, 2024 and a rate of 9.0% per annum thereafter.
