Satellogic Announces $30 Million Strategic Investment from Tether Investments Limited

Satellogic Inc. (NASDAQ: SATL) (“Satellogic” or the “Company”), a leader in sub-meter resolution Earth Observation (“EO”) data collection, today announced that Nettar Group, Inc. (the “Borrower”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (the “Note Purchase Agreement”) led by Tether Investments Limited (the “Purchaser”), pursuant to which the Borrower agreed to issue floating rate secured convertible promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $30 million (the “Secured Convertible Notes”) to the Purchaser (the “Offering”). The net proceeds from the Offering, after deducting transaction fees and other debt issuance costs, were approximately $27.6 million. The Borrower has the ability to issue additional Secured Convertible Notes, provided the aggregate principal amount outstanding does not exceed $50 million.

“The proceeds from Tether’s investment in Satellogic will help advance our mission as we continue to focus on our U.S. strategy, the National Security market, and our global Space Systems opportunities,” said Emiliano Kargieman, CEO & Founder of Satellogic.

“This new facility will provide necessary funding as we look to continue expanding in 2024,” added Rick Dunn, CFO of Satellogic.

The Secured Convertible Notes initially bear interest at a rate of SOFR plus 6.50% per annum, subject to an additional 4.0% per annum if certain events of default occur and are continuing. The Secured Convertible Notes are guaranteed by the Company and each of the Company’s material subsidiaries (other than the Borrower), and are secured by substantially all of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ assets (including all of its and their intellectual property). As noted above, the Borrower may issue additional Secured Convertible Notes under the terms thereof to other third parties, provided the aggregate principal amount outstanding does not exceed $50 million. The Secured Convertible Notes mature on April 12, 2028.

The Secured Convertible Notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s Class A ordinary share (the “Class A Ordinary Shares”) at an initial conversion price of $1.20 (or 833 Class A Ordinary Shares per $1,000 principal amount of Secured Convertible Notes), subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. Conversion of the Secured Convertible Notes held by the Purchaser into Class A Ordinary Shares is subject to CFIUS Approval (as defined in the Secured Convertible Notes).
