Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
|
Shares of Class B Common Stock of the Issuer were issued to each of Yorktown IX, Yorktown X and Yorktown XI on June 21, 2023, in connection with the distribution via a dividend of the newly authorized Class B Common Stock
to the Issuer’s holders of existing common stock of record as of the close of business, New York City time, on May 12, 2023 (the “Distribution”). Concurrent with the Distribution, the existing common stock
was reclassified as shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Class A Common Stock” and together with the Class B Common Stock, the “Common Stock”).
Stockholders of the Issuer are not required to pay for shares of Class B Common Stock received in the Distribution, or to surrender or exchange shares of Class A Common Stock in order to receive Class B Common Stock.
Prior to the initial public offering of the common stock of the Issuer, Yorktown IX, Yorktown X and Yorktown XI (collectively, the “Yorktown Funds”) each owned common units in Ramaco Development, LLC, a
Delaware limited liability company (“Ramaco Development”). Each of the Yorktown Funds used funds provided by their respective limited partners in order to acquire its units in Ramaco Development.
The Issuer was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware to become a holding company for Ramaco Development’s assets and operations. Pursuant to the terms of a corporate reorganization that was completed immediately prior to the
closing of the Issuer’s initial public offering, (i) a newly formed subsidiary of the Issuer merged with and into Ramaco Development and (ii) each of the Yorktown Funds and other unitholders of Ramaco Development exchanged all of their interests in
Ramaco Development for all of the Issuer’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock (prior to the issuance of shares of common stock in the Issuer’s initial public offering). As a result of the reorganization, Ramaco Development became a
direct, wholly owned subsidiary of the Issuer.

2017, filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Issuer’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on February 7, 2017, and is incorporated herein by reference.

referred to in this Item 4.

addition, the Reporting Persons or their designees to the Issuer’s board of directors may engage in discussions with management, the board of directors, and shareholders of the Issuer and other relevant parties or encourage such persons to consider

structure, including changes in management or the composition of the Issuer’s board of directors.
Except for the matters set forth in Items 3, 5 and the first paragraph of this Item 4, the Reporting Persons have no plans or proposals which relate to, or could result in, any of the matters referred to in paragraphs (a) through (j) inclusive

| Item 6. |
Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
|
The information provided or incorporated by reference in Item 3 and Item 4 is hereby incorporated by reference herein.
Class A and Class B Common Stock
Concurrent with the Distribution, the Issuer’s existing common stock was reclassified as Class A Common Stock pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and the Class B Common Stock was
distributed to existing holders of the Class A Common Stock on June 21, 2023. Each holder of existing common stock received a distribution of 0.2 shares of Class B Common Stock for every one share of existing common stock held on the record date
(with cash in lieu of any fractional share interests).
Voting Rights. Holders of shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share held of record on all matters to be voted upon by the
stockholders. The holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock shall vote together as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders. The holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock do not have
cumulative voting rights in the election of directors.
Dividend Rights. Holders of shares of the Issuer’s Class A Common Stock are entitled to ratably receive dividends when and if declared by the Issuer’s board of directors out of
funds legally available for that purpose, subject to any statutory or contractual restrictions on the payment of dividends and to any prior rights and preferences that may be applicable to any outstanding preferred stock. Holders of shares of the
Issuer’s Class B Common Stock are entitled to ratably receive a quarterly dividend tied to the financial performance of the CORE Assets (as defined in the Prospectus), subject to the discretion of the Issuer’s board of directors, the requirements
of applicable law, any statutory or contractual restrictions on the payment of dividends and to any prior rights and preferences that may be applicable to any outstanding preferred stock.
Liquidation Rights. Upon the Issuer’s liquidation, dissolution, distribution of assets or other winding up, the holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive ratably the assets
available for distribution to the stockholders after payment of liabilities and the liquidation preference of any of the Issuer’s outstanding shares of preferred stock. Holders of shares of our Class B Common Stock will not have any specific rights
with respect to the CORE Assets (as defined in the Prospectus).
Other Matters. The shares of Class A Common Stock have no preemptive or conversion rights and are not subject to further calls or assessment by the Issuer. There are no redemption
or sinking fund provisions applicable to the Class A Common Stock. The Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation permits the Issuer’s board of directors, in its sole discretion, to convert all of the outstanding shares of Class B
Common Stock into shares of Class A Common Stock based on an exchange ratio determined by a 20-day trailing VWAP for each class of stock. All outstanding shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock are fully paid and non-assessable.
Registration Rights Agreement
In connection with the closing of the initial public offering of the Issuer, the Issuer entered into a registration rights agreement (“Registration Rights Agreement”) with each of the Yorktown Funds and
certain other stockholders of the Issuer. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Issuer has agreed to register the sale of shares of Common Stock under certain circumstances.
Demand Rights
At any time after the 180 day lock-up period and subject to certain limitations each of the Yorktown Funds (or their permitted transferees) (together with the ECP Mezz Funds, other Yorktown affiliates and certain management members, the “Holders”) (the “Demand Holders”) has the right to require the Issuer, by written notice, to prepare and file a registration statement registering the offer and sale of a
certain number of its shares of Common Stock. Generally, the Issuer is required to provide notice of the request to certain other holders of the Common Stock who may, in certain circumstances, participate in the registration. Subject to certain
exceptions, the Issuer is not obligated to effect a demand registration within 90 days after the closing of any underwritten offering of shares of its common stock. Further, each of the Demand Holders is entitled to no less than three demand
registrations.
The Issuer is not obligated to effect more than a total of two demand registrations within any 365 day period. Once the Issuer is eligible to effect a registration on Form S-3, any such demand registration may be for a shelf registration
statement. The Issuer is required to use reasonable best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of any such registration statement until the earlier of (i) 180 days (or two years in the case of a shelf registration statement) after the effective
date thereof or (ii) the date on which all shares covered by such registration statement have been sold (subject to certain extensions).
In addition, each of the Demand Holders (or their permitted transferees) has the right to require the Issuer, subject to certain limitations, to effect a distribution of any or all of its shares of Common Stock by means of an underwritten
offering. In general, any demand for an underwritten offering (other than the first requested underwritten offering made in respect of a prior demand registration and other than a requested underwritten offering made concurrently with a demand
registration) shall constitute a demand request subject to the limitations set forth above.
Piggyback Rights
Subject to certain exceptions, if at any time the Issuer proposes to register an offering of Common Stock or conduct an underwritten offering, whether or not for its own account, then the Issuer must notify the Holders (or their permitted
transferees) of such proposal to allow them to include a specified number of their shares of Common Stock in that registration statement or underwritten offering, as applicable.
Conditions and Limitations; Expenses
The registration rights will be subject to certain conditions and limitations, including the right of the underwriters to limit the number of shares to be included in a registration and the Issuer’s right to delay or withdraw a registration
statement under certain circumstances. The Issuer will generally pay all registration expenses in connection with its obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement, regardless of whether a registration statement is filed or becomes effective.
The foregoing description of the Registration Rights Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Registration Rights Agreement filed as Exhibit 4.1 to the Issuer’s Current
Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 14, 2017, and is incorporated herein by reference.
Shareholders’ Agreement
In connection with the closing of the initial public offering of the Issuer, the Issuer entered into a shareholders’ agreement (“Shareholders’ Agreement”) with the ECP Mezz Funds and the Yorktown Funds.
Voting and Governance Matters
Among other things, the Shareholders’ Agreement provides the Yorktown Funds and the ECP Mezz Funds with the right to designate a number of nominees (each Yorktown Funds nominee, a “Yorktown Director” and
each ECP Mezz Funds nominee, an “ECP Director”) to the Issuer’s board of directors such that:
• at least 5 directors of the board are Yorktown Directors for so long as the Yorktown Funds and their affiliates collectively beneficially own at least 50% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock;
• at least 3 directors of the board are Yorktown Directors for so long as the Yorktown Funds and their affiliates collectively beneficially own less than 50% but at least 25% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock;
• at least 2 directors of the board are Yorktown Directors for so long as the Yorktown Funds and their affiliates collectively beneficially own less than 25% but at least 10% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock;
• at least 1 director of the board is a Yorktown Director for so long as the Yorktown Funds and their affiliates collectively beneficially own less than 10% but at least 5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock;
• once the Yorktown Funds and their affiliates collectively own less than 5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Yorktown Funds will not have any board designation rights;
• at least 2 directors of the board are ECP Directors for so long as the ECP Mezz Funds and their affiliates collectively beneficially own at least 10% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock;
• at least 1 director of the board is a ECP Director for so long as the ECP Mezz Funds and their affiliates collectively beneficially own less than 10% but at least 5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock; and
• once the ECP Funds and their affiliates collectively own less than 5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the ECP Mezz Funds will not have any board designation rights;
The designation rights of the Yorktown Funds and the ECP Mezz Funds are exercisable at the option of each of the Yorktown Funds and the ECP Mezz Funds and each of the Yorktown Funds and the ECP Mezz Funds may designate a number of directors to
serve on the Issuer’s board of directors that is less than the number shown above (or none at all). The designation rights of the ECP Mezz Funds and the Yorktown Funds will terminate automatically as to each such party upon the later of (i) the
time at which such party no longer has the right to designate an individual for nomination to the Issuer’s board of directors under the Shareholders’ Agreement, and (ii) the time at which the Yorktown Funds and the ECP Mezz Funds cease to hold in
aggregate at least 50% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. Additionally, the designation rights of the Yorktown Funds will terminate automatically upon the Yorktown Funds providing written notice to the ECP Mezz Funds and the Issuer.
Pursuant to the Shareholders’ Agreement, the Yorktown Funds have designated Bryan H. Lawrence and Peter A. Leidel as designees to the Issuer’s board of directors.
Pursuant to the Shareholders’ Agreement, each of the Issuer, the ECP Mezz Funds and the Yorktown Funds agrees not to take any actions that would affect the provisions of the Shareholders’ Agreement and the intention of the parties with respect
to the composition of the Issuer’s board of directors as therein stated. Each of the ECP Mezz Funds and the Yorktown Funds agrees to cast all votes to which such stockholder is entitled in respect of its shares of Common Stock, whether at any
annual or special meeting, by written consent or otherwise, so as to cause to be elected to the Issuer’s board of directors those individuals designated in accordance with the Shareholders’ Agreement (as described above) and to otherwise effect the
intent of the Issuer board representation provisions of the Shareholders’ Agreement. Each of the ECP Mezz Funds and the Yorktown Funds agrees not to take action to remove each other’s director nominees from office pursuant to the Issuer’s Articles
of Incorporation unless such removal is for cause.
