On October 15, 2013, the Sweetwater County Commissioners approved the issuance of a $34.0 million Sweetwater County, State of Wyoming, Taxable Industrial Development Revenue Bond (Lost Creek Project), Series 2013 (the “Sweetwater IDR Bond”) to the State of Wyoming, acting by and through the Wyoming State Treasurer, as purchaser. On October 23, 2013, the Sweetwater IDR Bond was issued, and the proceeds were in turn loaned by Sweetwater County to Lost Creek ISR, LLC pursuant to a financing agreement dated October 23, 2013 (the “State Bond Loan”). The State Bond Loan called for payments of interest at a fixed rate of 5.75% per annum on a quarterly basis commencing January 1, 2014. The principal was scheduled to be paid in 28 quarterly installments commencing January 1, 2015.

 

During the term of the State Bond Loan, the Sweetwater County Commissioners and the State of Wyoming approved two separate deferrals of principal payments during the downturn in the uranium market and our period of reduced production operations. Following those deferrals, quarterly principal payments resumed on October 1, 2022, and were scheduled to continue until October 1, 2024.

 

On March 27, 2024, we pre-paid the remaining $4.4 million due on the bond loan. The State Bond Loan was secured by all the assets of the Lost Creek Project. All releases of collateral have been obtained following the final repayment of the facility.
