SYLEBRA CAPITAL MENLO MASTER FUND, as a Lender

ORLANDO, Fla. – August 21, 2023 – PureCycle Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: PCT), today, announced its intention to offer, subject to market conditions and other factors, $200.0 million aggregate principal amount at maturity of its Green Convertible Senior Notes due 2030 (the “notes”) in a private offering (the “offering”) to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). PureCycle also expects to grant the initial purchaser of the notes an option to purchase, for settlement during a period of 13 days from, and including, the date the notes are first issued, up to an additional $30.0 million aggregate principal amount of the notes. Each $1,000 principal amount at maturity of notes will be issued at a discount to the principal amount at maturity. An amount equal to the difference between the issue price and the principal amount at maturity will accrete from the original issue date through August 15, 2027.

Entities affiliated with Sylebra Capital Management have indicated an interest in purchasing up to $75.0 million aggregate principal amount at maturity of notes.

PureCycle intends to allocate an amount equal to the net proceeds from this offering to the financing and refinancing of recently completed and future Eligible Green Projects (as defined below) in the United States. In particular, PureCycle intends to allocate the net proceeds from this offering to make payments on certain long-lead items and fund initial outside battery limits engineering design work, both associated with a multi-line purification facility to be built in Augusta, Georgia. Pending such allocation, PureCycle intends to use the remaining net proceeds for general corporate purposes.

“Eligible Green Projects” means: (i) investments in acquisitions of buildings; (ii) building developments or redevelopments; (iii) renovations in existing buildings; and (iv) tenant improvement projects, in each case, that have received, or are expected to receive, in the three years prior to the issuance of the Notes or during the term of the Notes, a Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Silver, Gold or Platinum certification (or environmentally equivalent successor standards).

Holders of the notes may convert all or any portion of their notes at their option at any time prior to the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date. Upon conversion, PureCycle will pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of its common stock or a combination of cash and shares of its common stock, at PureCycle’s election.

Holders of the notes have the right to require PureCycle to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their notes on August 15, 2027 at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount at maturity of the notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, August 15, 2027.

In addition, if PureCycle undergoes a “fundamental change,” then holders of the notes may require PureCycle to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their notes at repurchase price equal to 100% of the accreted principal amount of the notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the applicable fundamental change repurchase date.

Prior to August 20, 2025, the notes will not be redeemable at PureCycle’s option. On a redemption date occurring on or after August 20, 2025 and on or before the 40th scheduled trading day before the maturity date, PureCycle may redeem for cash all or any portion of the notes (subject to certain exceptions and restrictions), at PureCycle’s option, if the last reported sale price per share of PureCycle’s common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect for a specified period of time. The redemption price will be equal to 100% of the accreted principal amount of the notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date. The interest rate, conversion rate and other terms of the notes are to be determined upon pricing of the offering.

There can be no assurance that the offering will be completed. The notes will be offered to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act. Neither the notes nor the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes, if any, have been, nor will be, registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from such registration requirements.

This announcement is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy any of these securities and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale is unlawful.
