Stardust Power Inc. (SDST) reports that a prior event of default under its $4,800,000 Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note with Lind Global Asset Management XIII LLC has led Lind to force a partial conversion of the note. The default was triggered when the company’s market capitalization stayed below $15.0 million for ten consecutive trading days, which allows Lind to require conversion of principal into common stock.
On August 17, 2026, Lind elected to convert $150,000 of principal at a conversion price of $0.492 per share, and on August 20, 2026 the company issued 304,878 shares of common stock to Lind. After this conversion, $3,430,000 of principal remained outstanding under the note and the company had 14,523,933 common shares issued and outstanding. The conversion generated no cash proceeds for Stardust Power and may result in additional amounts becoming due, including any mandatory default amount.
Stardust Power Inc. reported the appointment of V. Ray Rivers to its Board of Directors, effective August 10, 2026, to serve until the 2027 annual meeting, also placing him on the Audit and Compensation Committees.
