As previously reported on a current report on Form 8-K filed in November 12, 2015 and as amended on December 7, 2015, on November 9, 2015 and December 4, 2015, Workhorse Group Inc. (the “Company”), entered into Securities Purchase Agreements with several accredited investors (the “Investors”) providing for the sale by the Company to the Investors of 6% Convertible Promissory Notes in the aggregate amount of $13,534,426 (the "Notes"). In addition to the Notes, the Investors also received stock purchase warrants (the “Warrants”) to acquire an aggregate of 1,366,979 shares of common stock of the Company. The Warrants are exercisable for five years at an exercise price of $5.28.

On December 16, 2015, the Company and the Investors entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Convertible Promissory Note providing that the Notes mature on the earliest of (i) two years from the date of issuance, (ii) the day immediately prior to the Company’s listing of its common stock on The Nasdaq Stock Market or the NYSE MKT (the “Listing”) or (iii) a change of control (collectively, the "Maturity Date"). At the option of the Investors, all or a portion of the Notes may be converted into shares of common stock of the Company at $3.50 per share (the “Offering Price”). The Notes are convertible into shares of common stock of the Company automatically on the Maturity Date at the lowest of the Offering Price, lower of the opening and closing prices of the Company’s common stock on the trading immediately prior to the Listing or the price per share paid by public investors in an underwritten public offering conducted in connection with the Listing or the per share consideration paid in a change of control. Attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Amendment No. 2 to Form 8-K Current Report is a pro-forma balance sheet providing an illustration of the Company following the conversion of the Notes in full and the resulting shareholders’ equity of $9,051,556. There is no guarantee that the Company will be successful in listing on The Nasdaq Stock Market, the NYSE MKT or any other such exchange or that the Notes will be converted as illustrated.

The foregoing information is a summary of each of the agreements involved in the transactions described above, is not complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of those agreements, each of which is attached an exhibit to this Amendment No. 2 to Current Report on Form 8-K. Readers should review those agreements for a complete understanding of the terms and conditions associated with this transaction.
