INFINITY
ENERGY RESOURCES, INC. COMPLETES $12 MILLION PRIVATE PLACEMENT
PLANS
TO SEEK APPROVAL FROM NICARAGUAN GOVERNMENT
FOR
FIVE DRILLING SITES
OVERLAND
PARK, Kansas (May 8, 2015) – Infinity Energy Resources, Inc. (OTCQB: IFNY) (“the Company”), an independent
oil and gas exploration and development company, today announced that it has completed the private placement of a $12.0 million
principal amount Senior Secured Convertible Note (the “Note”) and a Warrant to purchase 18,000,000 shares of the Company’s
common stock (the “Warrant”) with an institutional investor.
The
Company also announced that it will host an investor conference call at 11:15 a.m. Eastern Time on Friday, May 15, 2015 to provide
investors with further details regarding the financing and its plans to proceed with exploratory activities (see details below).
At
the closing on May 7, 2015, the investor acquired the Note by paying $450,000 in cash and issuing a promissory note, secured by
cash, with a principal amount of $9,550,000 (the “Investor Note”). Assuming all amounts payable to the Company under
the Investor Note are paid, the private placement will result in gross proceeds of $10.0 million before placement agent fees and
other expenses associated with the transaction, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. The Company will use the initial
proceeds from the closing to retire certain outstanding obligations, including the 2015 area and training fees relating to its
oil and gas concessions offshore Nicaragua (the “Concessions”), and to provide additional working capital.
The
Company will receive the remaining cash proceeds upon each voluntary or mandatory prepayment of the Investor Note. The investor
may, at its option and at any time, voluntarily prepay the Investor Note, in whole or in part.
The
investor must prepay the Investor Note, in whole or in part, upon the occurrence of one or more mandatory prepayment events. These
include (i) the investor’s conversion of the Note into shares of common stock upon which the investor will be required to
prepay the Investor Note, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, for each subsequent conversion of the Note and (ii) the Company’s
delivering a mandatory prepayment notice to the investor after it has received governmental authorizations from the Nicaraguan
authorities necessary to commence drilling on at least five sites within the Concessions, among other conditions.
The
Note matures on the three-year anniversary of its issuance, bears interest at 8% per annum, and is convertible at any time at
the option of the holder into shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.50 per share (the “Conversion Price”).
As a part of the private placement, the Company issued a Warrant to the investor giving it the right to purchase up to an aggregate
of 18,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share. The Warrant is exercisable commencing
six months from the date of issuance for a period of seven years from the date of issuance.
If
the Company issues or sells shares of its common stock, rights to purchase shares of its common stock, or securities convertible
into shares of its common stock for a price per share that is less than the Conversion Price or Warrant exercise price then in
effect, the then current Conversion Price and Warrant exercise prices will be decreased to equal such lower price.
The
investor has no right to convert the Note or exercise the Warrant to the extent that such conversion or exercise would result
in the investor being the beneficial owner of in excess of 9.99% of the Company’s common stock.
The
Note ranks senior to the Company’s existing and future indebtedness and is secured by all of the assets of the Company,
excluding the Concessions.
“We
are very excited to announce the completion of this private placement,” stated Stanton E. Ross, Chief Executive Officer
of Infinity Energy Resources, Inc. “We will immediately request permission from the Nicaraguan government to move forward
with the identification of possible drill site locations, and a required supplemental environmental study will begin this month.
Upon our receipt of the government’s authorization for us to drill five wells, we believe we will have the financing to
move forward with initial exploratory drilling on our 1.4 million-acre oil and gas Concessions in the Caribbean Sea offshore Nicaragua.
With the closing of this private placement, we intend to finalize our previously announced partnership with Granada Exploration
LLC over the next few weeks.”
“While
the prospective issuance of additional common stock upon conversion of the Note and the exercise of the Warrant has the potential
to significantly increase the number of IFNY shares outstanding, the financing will allow the Company to maintain ownership of
a much larger interest in the Concessions than previously anticipated,” concluded Ross.
WestPark
Capital, Inc. served as placement agent in this transaction.
The
foregoing description of the private placement, the Note, the Investor Note and related documents is a summary and does not purport
to be complete. Please refer to the Form 8-K that the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission today for a complete
description of the transaction, including the documents.
