| Item 1.01 | Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On December 19, 2024, BigBear.ai Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into separate, privately negotiated exchange agreements (the “Exchange Agreements”) with a limited number of holders of the Company’s existing 6.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”), to exchange approximately $182.3 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Notes for $182.3 million in aggregate principal amount of the Company’s new 6.00% Convertible Senior Secured Notes due 2029 (the “2029 Notes”) and approximately $0.4 million in cash, with such cash payment representing the accrued and unpaid interest on such 2026 Notes through December 27, 2024 (the “Exchange Transaction”). The Exchange Transaction is expected to settle on or about December 27, 2024, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.
The 2029 Notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed, on a senior, secured basis, by the Company and certain of its existing and future direct and indirect subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions (the “guarantors”), and will initially be secured on a first-priority basis by substantially all assets of the Company and such guarantors, subject to certain exceptions. The initial conversion price of the 2029 Notes will be equal to 115% of the daily volume-weighted average price per share of the Company’s common stock on the date of execution of the Exchange Agreements, and the initial conversion rate per $1,000 principal amount of the 2029 Notes will be a number of shares of common stock equal to $1,000 divided by such initial conversion price. The conversion rate and conversion price will be subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events. However, until the Company has obtained the stockholder approval contemplated by certain listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange, the number of shares of common stock deliverable upon conversion of the 2029 Notes will be limited to comply with these listing standards, and any shares of common stock that would otherwise have been deliverable upon conversion will instead be settled in cash.
Upon completion of the Exchange Transaction, the aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Notes outstanding will be approximately $17.7 million. The Company will not receive any cash proceeds from the issuance of the 2029 Notes pursuant to the Exchange Transaction.
The Exchange Transaction and the guarantees have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) or any other securities laws. The shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the 2029 Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act or any other securities laws, and the 2029 Notes and such shares cannot be offered or sold except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and any other applicable securities laws.
The form of the Exchange Agreements is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein. The foregoing description of the Exchange Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibit.
