In November 2018, the Company announced a non-binding letter of intent to provide up to $30 million of capital to Strategic by way of: (i) a first tranche of $15 million in 1.5 year first lien secured notes bearing interest at 12% per annum and payable quarterly; and (ii) a second $15 million tranche of notes (for a total of $30 million) on the same terms as the first tranche (the second tranche being callable by the Company on the occurrence of certain events).
