INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS FORM 6-K REPORT

 

Aegean Marine Petroleum Network Inc. (the "Company") previously disclosed that the audit committee of the Company's Board of Directors is conducting a review of certain matters relevant to the preparation and completion of the Company's annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017.  Because such financial statements have not been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, on June 18, 2018 purported holders under the indentures governing its 4.00% Convertible Unsecured Senior Notes due 2018 and on June 15, 2018 purported holders of the Company's 4.25% Convertible Unsecured Senior Notes due 2021 gave notice that a default (the "Reporting Default") has occurred under the respective indenture governing such notes which, in each case, must be cured within 60 days of each notice or such Reporting Default would become an event of default allowing the holders to declare the amounts outstanding under the indentures immediately due and payable.

 

On August 10, 2018, less than 60 days after the notices of default were delivered under each indenture, the Company delivered notices to the trustees under each indenture whereby the Company elected to pay an additional .50% on the next interest payment date under each indenture which allows the Company an additional 90 days from when the Reporting Default would have become an event of default in order to cure the Reporting Default before the holders under each indenture can declare amounts thereunder due and payable as a result of the Reporting Default. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to timely cure the Reporting Default or any other defaults.
