On
November 13, 2007, PetroHunter Energy Corporation (“PetroHunter”)
completed the sale to several accredited investors of Series A
8.5%
Convertible Debentures in the aggregate principal amount of
$6,956,387. Of the debentures placed, $476,387 was to
investors in an earlier private placement that was never
completed. The debentures are further described in Item 2.03
below.
|
|
The
debenture holders also received five-year warrants that allow the
holders
to purchase a total of 46,375,914 shares of common stock at prices
ranging
from $0.24 to $0.27 per
share.
|
|
Repayment
of the Debentures is secured by PetroHunter’s shares of its Australian
subsidiary.
|
|
Proceeds
of the financing will be used for further development of PetroHunter’s
resource properties and for working
capital.
|
|
PetroHunter
has agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and
Exchange Commission in order to register the resale of the shares
issuable
upon conversion of the debentures and the shares issuable upon exercise
of
the warrants that were issued to the Investors and the placement
agent.
