Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
 
As previously announced, on June 13, 2023, NextDecade Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into a common stock purchase agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) with Global LNG North America Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Purchaser”) and an affiliate of TotalEnergies SE, pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell, and Purchaser agreed to purchase, in three separate tranches, shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), in an amount such that, following the closing of the third tranche, the Purchaser will own 17.5% of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company. On July 27, 2023, the Company issued the second tranche of Common Stock to the Purchaser, consisting of 22,072,103 shares of Common Stock, at a purchase price of $4.9837 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $110,000,739.72 (the “Tranche 2 Closing”).
 
The Tranche 2 Closing was conditioned upon, among other items, the conversion of each of the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and Series C Convertible Preferred Stock (collectively, the “Convertible Preferred Stock”). The consummation of the financing agreements with Rio Grande LNG, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“RGLNG”) and an indirect subsidiary of the Company, on July 12, 2023, as described in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed on July 12, 2023, constituted an “FID Event” as defined under the Certificates of Designations for each series of Convertible Preferred Stock. Following the occurrence of the FID Event under such Certificates of Designations, the Convertible Preferred Stock automatically converted into 59,542,066 shares of Common Stock on July 26, 2023.
 
The Common Stock issued to Purchaser in the Tranche 2 Closing and the Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Convertible Preferred Stock has been issued pursuant to an exemption from registration provided for under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), because in each case the issuance of such Common Stock does not involve a “public offering,” as defined in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, and other applicable requirements will be met.
