8 Apr 2025capital raising announcement▼ Bad

Took on $1.2 million of Viking-level debt directly, issuing FK Venture LLC an unsecured convertible note (10% interest, convertible at $0.15/share, about 8 million shares) to restructure an existing Viking obligation -- routine post-merger debt consolidation.

5 Jan 2022capital raising announcement▼ BadMajor

One day later, sold the same investor $100 million face value of new Series G Preferred Stock -- but the investor paid only $5 million cash upfront, financing the rest with its own promissory notes back to Camber payable through 2022, plus warrants on 100 million more shares -- a deal whose headline size is mostly paper unless the investor's own notes get paid.

4 Jan 2022capital raising announcement▼ BadMajor

Took out a new kind of financing -- a straight $25 million loan (a $26.3 million note with 5% OID) from its Series C-era investor, convertible at $1.50/share, secured by Camber's assets and a pledge of Viking shares, guaranteed by Viking itself, and paired with warrants on 50 million shares at $10-$20 -- a much larger, harder-secured facility than the preferred-stock rounds that preceded it.

12 July 2021capital raising announcement▼ BadMajor

Opened a new $15 million Series C tranche (1,575 shares) tied to the February 2021 re-signed Viking merger agreement -- the same investor relationship, financing the same deal, for the third time.

13 Jan 2021capital raising announcement● NeutralMajor

During the Dec 2020 pivot to a direct Viking stock purchase, paid off $20.9 million Viking owed to lender EMC Capital Partners by issuing EMC 1,890 shares of Camber Series C Preferred Stock (plus $325,000 cash from Viking) -- a debt-for-equity swap that both cleaned up Viking's balance sheet and let Camber add 145,384,615 more Viking shares to its holding.

23 June 2020capital raising announcement▼ BadMajor

Opened another Series C tranche -- 630 shares for $6 million -- explicitly tied to the pending Viking merger, with a clause forcing Camber to buy the shares back at 110% of face value if the merger fails.

13 May 2020capital raising announcement▼ BadMajor

Confirmed the SylvaCap Media marketing deal and disclosed the dilution toll of Series C conversions: only 6.7 million shares outstanding as of May 2020 even after a 5x increase in authorized shares, with the conversion-premium price down to $0.6721 and falling -- and admitted it still needed a transaction to regain NYSE compliance.

5 Feb 2020capital raising announcement● NeutralMajor

As part of the original Camber-Viking merger agreement, loaned Viking $5 million via a 10.5% secured note (maturing 2022) and simultaneously opened a fresh Series C Preferred sale -- financing both sides of the deal it was trying to close.

21 May 2019capital raising announcement● Neutral

Director Alan Dreeben converted all 44,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock he held into 503 common shares plus $25,000 cash, releasing $1.1 million of liquidation preference -- cleaning up the cap table ahead of the planned Lineal Star Holdings reverse merger, which would itself unwind seven months later.

7 Dec 2018capital raising announcement▼ BadMajor

Opened yet another Series C facility -- up to $28 million (2,941 shares) -- with an amended $2.5 million initial closing and new trading-volume conditions on further draws; the 24.95% dividend rate continues.

1 Nov 2018capital raising announcement▼ BadMajor

The Series C investor fully converted the original April 2016 debenture -- just $495,000 of principal -- into 20,037,653 shares, almost all of it from ballooning conversion-premium shares rather than the principal itself, a stark illustration of how punishing the conversion terms had become; separately entered a fresh October 2018 Series C purchase agreement for more capital.

28 Sept 2018capital raising announcement▼ BadMajor

Completed the tenth and final closing of the October 2017 Series C facility -- the full $16 million contracted in October 2017 has now been drawn, over eleven months and ten separate tranches.

12 Mar 2018capital raising announcement▼ BadMajor

Drew a sixth Series C closing, but only $1 million instead of the $5 million the October 2017 agreement called for at this stage -- the investor scaling back its own commitment.

27 Nov 2017capital raising announcement▼ BadMajor

Opened a much larger $16 million Series C facility (October 2017 agreement, 24.95% dividend rate) with the same institutional investor, drawing $2 million at signing and a further $1 million in this filing's 'Second Closing' -- proceeds earmarked partly to satisfy International Bank of Commerce, the lender behind the ~$36.9 million default that would later force the 2018 N&B Energy asset sale already on record.

6 Feb 2017capital raising announcement▼ BadMajor

Amended the Rogers loan again and, for the first time, borrowed directly from a member of its own board: director Alan Dreeben lent the company $1 million (a $1.05 million note with 5% OID) -- insider lending starts here, years before the pattern already on record for later officers.

21 Nov 2016capital raising announcement▼ BadMajor

Sold a second Series C tranche -- 474 shares for $4.5 million -- and amended the agreement so the investor's warrant is now exercisable only at its own election.

12 Oct 2016capital raising announcement▲ GoodMajor

The Series C investor partially exercised its warrant, paying $4.5 million for 810,000 shares (of 1,384,616 due, the rest held back on ownership-limit grounds) -- the largest single cash infusion since the 2007 placement.

8 Sept 2016capital raising announcement▼ BadMajor

Closed the first tranche of the April 2016 Series C Preferred agreement: 53 shares plus the $4.5 million warrant, for $500,000 gross -- the actual inception of what becomes a years-long, increasingly dilutive Series C financing relationship.

2 May 2016capital raising announcement▼ Bad

Sold a new $150,000 convertible note (part of a $600,000 facility) to lender 'HFT'/Debra Herman at 6% interest, $1.50/share conversion, plus 124,285 warrants -- another small lender added to the note-financing roster.

25 Apr 2016capital raising announcement▼ Bad

Rockwell Capital Partners converted $159,780 of its assigned Silver Star notes into 106,520 shares at $1.50/share; separately, amended the December 2015 Segundo Resources asset purchase agreement (with 21+ sellers) to move its effective date to April 2016 and drop a share-registration requirement.

7 Apr 2016capital raising announcement▼ BadMajor

Signed the agreements that would become its long-running Series C preferred stock financing: a $500,000 debenture at 5% OID plus a warrant exercisable for $4.5 million, and a $5.26 million face Series C Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock purchase agreement (5% OID, $3.25 conversion price) with an unnamed institutional investor -- up to $15 million in total potential proceeds. This unnamed investor would later be identified in this company's disclosures as Discover Growth Fund -- meaning that relationship, currently on record from October 2017, actually began here, six months earlier.

12 Feb 2016capital raising announcement▼ BadMajor

Drew a fifth $200,000 Silver Star tranche (total now $1 million of $2.4 million), disclosed that $300,000 of the earlier notes had been assigned to Rockwell Capital Partners, and admitted it lacked the cash to honor Silver Star's 30-day prepayment demand -- a real liquidity warning.

5 Jan 2016capital raising announcement▼ Bad

Drew a fourth $200,000 tranche from the Silver Star line (dated year-end 2015), bringing the total drawn to $800,000 of the $2.4 million facility.
