Item 3.02Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

As previously announced in connection with the August 12, 2019 closing by CorEnergy Infrastructure Trust, Inc. ("CorEnergy" or the "Company") on the Company's offering of $120 million aggregate principal amount of its 5.875% Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 (the "2025 Notes"), the Company is utilizing a portion of the proceeds from that offering to exchange approximately $63.9 million face amount of its 7.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2020 (the “2020 Notes”) pursuant to separate agreements dated August 7, 2019 that were negotiated with three holders of the 2020 Notes concurrently with the offering of the 2025 Notes. These exchanges settled on August 15, 2019 for an aggregate of 703,432 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), plus aggregate cash consideration of approximately $60.2 million, which was based on the average of the daily volume weighted-average prices of the Company’s Common Stock over a six trading day period beginning on August 7, 2019. The total cash and stock consideration for the approximately $63.9 million aggregate principal amount of 2020 Notes exchanged was valued at approximately $93.2 million (including approximately $733 thousand of accrued interest). After such exchange and unrelated conversions of $70 thousand in July of 2019, the balance of the outstanding face amount of the 2020 Notes was reduced to approximately $5.6 million, from approximately $69.6 million.

The issuance of Common Stock as a portion of the exchange consideration for certain of the outstanding 2020 Notes as described above is being made in reliance on the exemption from registration provided in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). In determining that the issuance of Common Stock qualified for the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, the Company relied on the following facts: (i) all of the holders involved in the exchange were qualified institutional buyers (within the meaning of Securities Act Rule 144A) and (ii) the Company did not utilize any form of general solicitation or advertising in connection with the exchange.
