Fisker Inc. expected to go bankrupt within a handful of days. In a rescue attempt, founder Henrik Fisker is now releasing control of the car brand.
If no money comes on the table, the car brand Fisker Inc. will go. bankruptcy within a few days.
But now a lifeline has been thrown out, albeit of a very modest size. According to a notice that Fisker has sent to the American stock exchange authorities, the car brand is considering a loan.
The money, $3.45 million, comes from an already-existing Fisker investor. In Danish kroner, this corresponds to just under 24 million kroner.
And there is another $4.05 million from the investor if Fisker Inc. complies with the financial plan currently laid out for the crisis-stricken brand.

The loan that Fisker has now received must be repaid with 12 percent interest and no later than June 24. So in just a little more than one month.
However, Fisker does not get the money out of the blue. They are given on a number of very strict conditions. By saying yes to the capital injection, Henrik Fisker has agreed to give control of Fisker Inc. on to the investor.
