BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., March 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — (“Green Rain Energy” or the “Company”) today announced that, following recently filed Form 8-K disclosures, the Company has initiated a comprehensive review of certain legacy convertible debt instruments issued under predecessor management. The review is being conducted under the guidance of the Company’s accounting advisors and legal counsel to ensure compliance with applicable accounting standards, corporate governance requirements, and securities regulations.

The review focuses primarily on convertible notes associated with historical transactions, including the 2019 acquisition involving Medican Enterprises Inc., which records indicate may have involved a $20,000,000 convertible promissory note bearing 8% interest issued by prior management.

Current management, which assumed control of the Company in late 2024, was not involved in negotiating or approving these legacy transactions. As a result, the Board of Directors has authorized a formal validation process to determine the existence, enforceability, valuation, and accounting treatment of such instruments.

Temporary Suspension of Legacy Note Conversions

As part of this process, the Company has formally advised its transfer agent and relevant parties that no conversions of these legacy convertible notes will be processed unless and until the holders provide sufficient documentation supporting the validity of the instruments and the underlying transactions.

The documentation requested includes, but is not limited to:

executed promissory notes and assignment agreements

proof of consideration and supporting transaction records

documentation evidencing ownership and transfer of underlying assets

valuation methodologies supporting the original transaction

historical conversion notices or related securities documentation

Until such documentation is received and verified, the Company has instructed that all conversion requests relating to these legacy instruments be blocked unless expressly authorized by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Board of Directors.

Compliance With Accounting and Corporate Governance Standards

The Company’s Board has also authorized management to conduct a valuation and impairment review of the underlying transaction, including evaluation of whether the assets acquired in the historical transaction reasonably support the carrying value of the related liabilities under applicable accounting standards such as ASC 350 (Intangibles — Goodwill and Other) and ASC 360 (Property, Plant and Equipment).

This review may involve independent accounting and valuation specialists and may result in adjustments to the Company’s financial statements if warranted by the findings of the review.

Protecting Shareholder Interests

Management believes that undertaking this validation process is critical to protecting the interests of current shareholders. Convertible debt instruments, particularly those issued under prior management, can significantly impact a company’s capital structure if converted into common stock without proper verification.

By requiring validation of these legacy instruments before any conversion is permitted, the Company seeks to:

protect shareholders from unsubstantiated dilution

ensure that only legitimate obligations are reflected in the Company’s capitalization

maintain transparency and integrity in the Company’s financial reporting

align the Company’s capital structure with verified legal obligations

Unauthorized or unsupported conversions could materially alter the Company’s outstanding share count and negatively affect shareholder value. Accordingly, the Company believes that temporarily suspending conversions pending documentation review is a prudent and necessary step.

Legal and Regulatory Framework

The Company’s actions are consistent with established principles of corporate governance and securities regulation. Under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, issuers are required to ensure that disclosures and financial statements accurately reflect material obligations and capital structure. Additionally, boards of directors have fiduciary duties under applicable corporate law to verify liabilities and protect shareholder interests when reviewing transactions entered into by prior management.

Courts and regulators have consistently recognized that companies may review and challenge legacy obligations where documentation is incomplete or where transactions require validation to ensure compliance with accounting and securities laws.

Ongoing Updates

Green Rain Energy will continue to work closely with its accounting and legal teams throughout this review process and will provide updates to shareholders as additional information becomes available.

The Company remains focused on strengthening its balance sheet, improving transparency, and advancing its long-term strategy in energy infrastructure and technology development.

 Discounted Offer is Well Below OBDC II NAV and Ignores Significant Capital Return Already Underway

NEW YORK, March 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Blue Owl Capital Corporation II (“OBDC II”) today announced that its Board of Directors (the “Board”) has unanimously recommended that shareholders reject the unsolicited minority tender offer from Cox Capital Partners (“Cox”) and Saba Capital Management, L.P. (“Saba”) for up to 8,000,000 shares of OBDC II for approximately $30 million (less than 7% of the outstanding shares). We believe this is an attempt to capture value at the expense of OBDC II shareholders. The offering price represents a discount of approximately 33.2% to net asset value (“NAV”)1, which is well below what the Board believes to be the potential long-term value of OBDC II shares.

The Board strongly recommends that shareholders REJECT Cox and Saba’s unsolicited, minority tender offer and DO NOT tender their shares. To reject the offer, simply do not respond to any offer materials you may have received.

In reaching its conclusion, the Board: (1) consulted with members of management and its financial and legal advisors; (2) reviewed the terms and conditions of the offer; and (3) considered other information related to the fund’s historical financial performance, portfolio of assets and future opportunities.

Why Shareholders Should Reject This Offer:

  • The offer price is at a significant discount to NAV. This is an attempt to exploit OBDC II shareholders by purchasing their shares at a 33.2%1 discount, well below the NAV of OBDC II shares. The Board and management have already stated that the Company has taken significant steps to return capital to shareholders at no discount to fair value.
      
  • Cox and Saba’s offer price is inadequate, arbitrary and substantially undervalues OBDC II’s assets and ongoing access to liquidity. The Board, amongst other things, evaluated the offer’s significant discount to NAV (33.2%)1 and considered an inadequacy opinion from BofA Securities, Inc., which concluded the offer price is inadequate for OBDC II shareholders from a financial point of view.2 In contrast, Cox and Saba conducted no independent analysis of their offer to ensure fairness.
      
  • Tendering will prohibit OBDC II shareholders from receiving future distributions and realizing any appreciation in the value of their shares in the future. With respect to tendered shares, these shareholders will forfeit their ownership interest in a high-performing portfolio and all future distributions, including return of capital distributions, associated with that portfolio.

How Superior Value is Already Being Delivered

OBDC II has a proven track record of strong performance, delivering a 9.1% annualized return3 since inception, consistently outperforming leveraged loan indices. The Board is also already taking specific significant action to return capital to OBDC II shareholders: OBDC II shareholders are expected to receive payments equal to 50% or more of OBDC II’s net assets3 in 2026. This includes a return of capital distribution representing 30% of NAV3 to be paid on or before March 31, 2026. In addition to the regular monthly dividend, OBDC II will prioritize additional return of capital distributions to shareholders on a quarterly basis of 5% or more.

Blue Owl remains focused on maximizing value for all shareholders of OBDC II and protecting their interests through the disciplined execution of OBDC II’s investment strategy.

Kirkland & Ellis LLP and Eversheds Sutherland are serving as legal advisors to Blue Owl and OBDC II. BofA Securities, Inc. is acting as financial advisor and FGS Global is acting as strategic communications advisor in connection to the offer.

WASHINGTON, March 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Paralyzed Veterans of America Chief Executive Officer Carl Blake released the following statement in response to the newly announced memorandum of understanding (MOU) between the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and Department of Justice (DOJ) authorizing VA attorneys to serve as special assistant U.S. attorneys and to initiate guardianship or conservatorship proceedings for veterans who lack family or legal representation.

“Paralyzed Veterans of America, a congressionally chartered nonprofit veterans service organization and a leader in advocating for the civil rights and community integration of catastrophically disabled veterans and all people with disabilities, is concerned about the implications of the memorandum of understanding (MOU) between the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and the Department of Justice. The MOU, announced this week, authorizes VA attorneys to serve as special assistant U.S. attorneys and to initiate guardianship or conservatorship proceedings for veterans who lack family or legal representation.

While we recognize the VA’s obligation to ensure safe and timely transitions of care for veterans who are unable to make health care decisions, this policy elevates a legal tool—court-ordered guardianship and conservatorship—that can result in unnecessary institutionalization and the loss of fundamental rights. Guardianship can severely –or permanently—restrict an individual’s autonomy, civil liberties, and access to community-based supports. Consequently, the MOU raises several specific questions about due process, transparency, and legal safeguards that must be addressed:

  • How has VA been addressing the needs of veterans who lack capacity who are currently receiving care from VA?
  • Will veterans have access to independent legal counsel paid for by the VA when needed?
  • Will VA and DOJ commit to transparency, including public reporting and independent oversight, to ensure just treatment of veterans?

Veterans who have served our country deserve care that honors their dignity, preserves their rights, and supports their ability to live in the community with appropriate services. VA must carefully consider any broad use of guardianship as a care-planning shortcut and adopt policies with robust safeguards.”

About Paralyzed Veterans of America
Paralyzed Veterans of America is a 501(c)(3) non-profit and the only congressionally chartered veterans service organization dedicated solely for the benefit and representation of veterans with spinal cord injury or diseases. The organization ensures veterans receive the benefits earned through service to our nation; monitors their care in VA spinal cord injury units; and funds research and education in the search for a cure and improved care for individuals with paralysis.

As a life-long partner and advocate for veterans and all people with disabilities, PVA also develops training and career services, works to ensure accessibility in public buildings and spaces, and provides health and rehabilitation opportunities through sports and recreation. With more than 70 offices and 33 chapters, Paralyzed Veterans of America serves veterans, their families, and their caregivers in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico.

SAN DIEGO, March 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The U.S. Postal Service held a first-day-of-issue ceremony for its new Lowriders stamps today at the Logan Heights Library. With this issuance, USPS celebrates lowrider car culture, rooted in working-class Mexican American/Chicano communities throughout the American Southwest.

“A lowrider is a masterpiece of engineering and artistry, a rolling canvas of art. They are often painted with murals that tell stories of family, faith and history,” said Gary Barksdale, the Postal Service’s chief postal inspector, who served as the dedicating official. “The lowrider culture is about creating a space to celebrate pride, a sense of belonging and building a community that is always there for each other.”

What, precisely, is a lowrider? It is a customized automobile outfitted with smaller-than-factory wheels — or “rims,” preferably with wire spokes — that reduce its height. Many include dazzling paint jobs, crushed velvet upholstery and welded-chain steering wheels. In addition, a special hydraulic system allows the driver, at the touch of a button, to raise and lower the chassis or run the vehicle through tricks, such as driving on three wheels or “hopping” (bouncing).

Lowriders reflect the owner’s imagination, craftsmanship and “Chicano ingenuity,” a trait associated with using unconventional thinking to solve problems. With a considerable amount of time, effort and expense, an older American car model, can be transformed into a one-of-a-kind rolling masterpiece. Traditionally, groups of owners show off their rides by driving slowly — or “cruising” — along a commercial corridor in a neighborhood or around a park.

Lowriding took off in the 1970s, but it was born in East Los Angeles and the Southwest borderlands in the 1940s. Discrimination at the time caused some young Chicano men to rebel and flaunt their differences. Mimicking the African American hipsters of the jazz world, they decked themselves out in zoot suits, two-tone shoes and broad-brimmed hats and called themselves “Pachucos.” Some of them lowered their cars chassis, becoming the first lowriders.

During the 1960s Chicano Movement, lowrider culture became one small but highly visible display of Chicano pride in the fight for dignity and self-respect. The car made a statement for its owner: I am here, I am somebody. Car clubs thrived, each with their own special plaque that members displayed in their car’s rear window. Most were male-only organizations, but in the late 1970s women started their own clubs, too, and today lowriding is a family tradition. Clubs continue to represent belonging and pride, and club members help raise funds for various causes while they showcase their lowriders in car shows and parades.

Lowrider culture has captured the attention of people around the globe. Clubs have formed in Japan and numerous other countries. At the Smithsonian National Museum of American History, a gorgeous lowrider model stops visitors in their tracks, when they visit the third-floor exhibit.

The stamps are available at Post Office locations nationwide and online at usps.com/shopstamps.

News about the stamps is being shared on social media using the hashtag #LowridersStamps.

Stamp design

Eager to show different lowrider styles, vintages and colors on these stamps, Antonio Alcalá, an art director for USPS, found that photography would best capture the essence of lowrider culture. “Photography helps honor the hard work that goes into the creation of each car,” he explained. “Using illustrations would possibly be more about the artist’s imagination than about actual lowriders.”

These stamps feature photographs by Philip Gordon of “Let the Good Times Roll/Soy Como Soy,” a blue 1946 Chevrolet Fleetline, and “Pocket Change,” a green 1987 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme; and photographs by Humberto “Beto” Mendoza of “Eight Figures,” a blue 1958 Chevrolet Impala, “The Golden Rose,” an orange 1964 Chevrolet Impala, and “El Rey,” a red 1963 Chevrolet Impala.

To show the cars in as much detail as possible, Alcalá made these stamps one-third wider than the usual commemorative size. Other design elements pay further tribute to lowrider culture: The Gothic-style typography suggests the shiny chrome lettering found on many cars to show their affiliation with a particular club. Danny Alvarado’s custom pinstriping in the corner of each stamp and on the selvage evokes the detailed decoration on the most celebrated lowriders.

Lowriders stamps will be issued in panes of 15. As Forever stamps, they will always be equal in value to the current First-Class Mail 1-ounce price.

A video about the stamps will be posted after today’s event on the Postal Service’s Facebook page at facebook.com/USPS and on X, formerly known as Twitter, at x.com/usps.

Customers may purchase stamps and other philatelic products through The Postal Store at usps.com/shopstamps, by calling 844-737-7826, by mail through USA Philatelic or at Post Office locations nationwide.

A decorated retired U.S. Navy Captain, three-time combat veteran, and Purple Heart recipient, Dr. Richter brings more than two decades of leadership experience guiding healthcare systems that serve millions of beneficiaries worldwide.

  • New Permit to be Filed Within Weeks of the Site’s First 6GW Clean Air Permit Approval
  • Signals Project Matador’s Plans for 17GW of Total Campus Power, Making It Largest in the World
  • Adding additional high-paying construction jobs and permanent careers to the Texas Panhandle

AMARILLO, Texas, March 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Fermi Inc. (d/b/a Fermi America) (NASDAQ & LSE: FRMI), operating as Fermi America™, in partnership with the Texas Tech University System (TTU System), today announced its intention to file an additional 5GW Clean Air Permit with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ).

The announcement made right on the heels of Project Matador’s first 6GW Clean Air Permit, approved two weeks ago, signals the campus’ plan to achieve ~17GW of total power including 11GW of clean natural gas, 4.4GW of nuclear energy, solar and battery sources.

“Leave it to Texas to answer the call for America’s energy crisis,” stated Toby Neugebauer, Co-Founder and CEO of Fermi America. “Why would we settle for 6GW of clean natural gas when the country needs more power, not less, and our site is beyond capable of safely producing 11GW? Fermi is pleased to steward this land and environment well, while creating additional high-paying jobs and economic development for the region.”

With winter storms causing grid power issues and President Trump’s recent Ratepayer Protection Pledge, the only answer is private power grids.  America’s energy needs are surging across every sector — from AI and advanced computing to domestic manufacturing, defense, and industrial reshoring. The public grid was not designed to scale at the speed of AI, nor should hard-working Americans foot the bill.

As the only private grid campus of its kind with over 2GW of secured long lead time generation assets, an approved ~6GW Clean Air Permit, equipment finance, and a clear path to 17GW of power, Fermi America is positioned to meet hyperscaler demand so that America’s great innovators can continue to grow at the speed of capitalism.  

President Trump’s ‘Bring Your Own Power’ mandate points the way — and at 17GW, Project Matador is ready to deliver power certainty at scale.
