Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement

As previously disclosed, on January 20, 2021, HC2 Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“HC2” or the “Company”) provided notice to U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), of its intent to use the net cash proceeds from the sale of Beyond6, Inc. to redeem $67,716,000 aggregate principal amount of HC2’s 11.500% Senior Secured Notes due 2021 (the “2021 Notes”), pursuant to the Indenture, dated as of November 20, 2018 (the “2021 Indenture”), among the Company, the guarantors party thereto and the Trustee, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2021 Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest since December 1, 2020 (the last regularly scheduled interest payment date preceding the redemption date) to the redemption date of February 19, 2021.

On January 22, 2021, the Company provided notice to the Trustee of its intent to also use a portion of the net proceeds of the Notes Offering (as defined below) to redeem the remaining $272,693,000 aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2021 Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest since December 1, 2020 to the redemption date of February 21, 2021.

As previously disclosed, on February 1, 2021, the Company issued $330,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 8.500% Senior Secured Notes due 2026 (the “Notes Offering”).

Substantially concurrently with the closing of the Notes Offering, the Company deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee sufficient funds to make the redemption payments described above on the respective redemption dates. Upon deposit of such funds with the Trustee, the 2021 Indenture was satisfied and discharged in accordance with its terms. As a result of the satisfaction and discharge of the 2021 Indenture, the Company and the guarantors party to the 2021 Indenture have been released from their obligations with respect to the 2021 Indenture and the 2021 Notes, except with respect to those provisions of the 2021 Indenture that, by their terms, survive the satisfaction and discharge of the 2021 Indenture.
