Material Changes and Debt Structure
The Company has significantly increased its debt load through the issuance of $3.2 billion in notes. Key structural features include:
- Amortization: Principal amortizes semi-annually based on schedules in the Indenture. No amortization is payable for specific data center buildings prior to their completion.
- Redemption:
- Post-October 15, 2027: Redeemable at option at prices set in the Indenture.
- Pre-October 15, 2027: Redeemable at 100% of principal plus a "make-whole" premium. Up to 40% of principal may be redeemed using proceeds from certain equity offerings.
- Change of Control: Upon specified events, the Company must offer to repurchase notes at 101% of principal plus accrued interest.
Covenants, Risks, and Management Commentary
Covenants: The Indenture restricts WULF Compute and Guarantors from incurring additional indebtedness, paying dividends, making restricted payments, creating liens, or engaging in certain asset sales and affiliate transactions without meeting specific qualifications.
Completion Guarantee: TeraWulf Inc. has provided a completion guarantee for the Data Center Expansion, obligating the parent company to provide funds if note proceeds and existing equity contributions are insufficient to complete the buildings.
Risks and Forward-Looking Statements: The filing includes standard disclaimers regarding forward-looking statements. Actual results may differ due to market conditions and the ability to complete the offering on anticipated terms. Investors are directed to the "Risk Factors" section of the Form 10-K filed on March 3, 2025.
