Key Details

• The announcement was made February 20, 2026 and was reported in an 8-K filed February 23, 2026 (Item 1.01).
• Notes involved: 9.25% Senior Secured Notes due Dec 31, 2028 and 9.00% Senior Secured Convertible Notes due Dec 31, 2028.
• The ad hoc noteholder group agreed to forbear (i.e., temporarily refrain from enforcement actions) under the existing amended and restated indenture.
• The forbearance extension is short-term, running through February 27, 2026.

Why It Matters This filing confirms the company has secured a short, temporary extension from its noteholders, which pauses creditor remedies for the stated period and gives the company limited additional time to address near-term debt issues or negotiations. For investors, that means an immediate reduction in the risk of enforcement actions during the extension window—but it is a short extension, not a long-term restructuring or debt resolution. The company’s filing also includes standard forward-looking statement disclosures and points investors to prior SEC/SEDAR filings for risk factors and further detail.
