Insights
TL;DR: Majority owners confirm ~81.9% stake and commit $20.0M to acquire additional shares, reinforcing control.
The amendment clarifies ownership levels and documents a subscription agreement whereby EAH will invest $19,999,998.35 to acquire 4,123,711 shares at $4.85 per share using working capital. This transaction formalizes further capital transfer to the issuer and preserves EAH's controlling position. The filing also records governance and participation rights granted to BNDESPAR tied to a concurrent BDR purchase, which could affect board composition and future equity offerings. Disclosures show no other transactions in the past 60 days by the reporting persons.
TL;DR: A structured subscription plus strategic BDR arrangement secures capital and embeds governance rights for a minority purchaser.
The Subscription Agreement is a straightforward capital injection by the majority holder into the issuer at a negotiated price, with closing conditioned on standard shareholder approval procedures and timing tied to a Schedule 14C mailing. The accompanying letter with BNDESPAR grants limited governance and anti-dilution protections while preserving EAH as the largest owner. These documented rights and conditions are material to control dynamics and future equity transactions.
