Tellurian raised $333.3 million in new senior secured and convertible notes specifically to redeem the $333.3 million of 6% convertible notes it had issued in June 2022 -- refinancing its largest existing debt rather than retiring it.
Tellurian raised $47.3 million in emergency financing via a $56 million senior unsecured note plus warrants on 20 million shares (exercise price $1.542) -- expensive, dilutive capital raised amid the COVID oil crash.
As COVID-19 hammered oil and gas prices, Driftwood Holdings had to prepay $2 million of its 2019 term loan and hand its lender 11 million shares of Tellurian stock just to get relief on fees and an extended maturity -- an early sign of real financial strain.
TOTAL agreed to invest a further $200 million in Tellurian common stock, but only if Tellurian reached a final investment decision on Driftwood Phase 1 and separately paid $1.0 billion for a 7.2% stake in the project entity, Driftwood Holdings LP -- a much larger, more conditional commitment than TOTAL's 2016 investment.

Bechtel itself became a Tellurian shareholder, buying 6.1 million shares of a new Series C convertible preferred stock -- aligning its interests as Driftwood's EPC contractor with an equity stake in the project's success.
Tellurian granted GE registration rights over the common stock GE could receive by converting its preferred stock, a routine follow-on to GE's 2016 investment.
Ahead of the Tellurian merger's close, Magellan agreed to pay off remaining obligations tied to its old Poplar oil field (a contingent production-payment right and its M&A advisor's fee) in stock, cleaning up its balance sheet before the reverse merger.
Magellan borrowed $625,000 from One Stone Holdings II LP to fund transaction costs tied to an Exchange Agreement in which One Stone would hand back all of Magellan's Series A preferred stock in return for taking Magellan's entire US oil and gas subsidiary, Nautilus Poplar, and 51% of another subsidiary -- Magellan was preparing to exit US production entirely.
Magellan granted inducement stock options to two new hires, Milam Pharo and Blaine Spies, under Nasdaq's employment-inducement rule -- a routine hiring-related equity grant.

Magellan agreed to sell $15.6 million more stock to strategic investor Young Energy Prize S.A., which would raise director Nikolay Bogachev and YEP's combined stake toward roughly 33% of the company -- a further deepening of a financing relationship already flagged as related-party.
