Item
1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement
This Form 8-K/A amends the Form 8-K
filed April 13, 2009 reporting Acorn Energy, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a
Common Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with CoaLogix Inc., a
subsidiary presently owned 85% by the Company and 15% by EnerTech Capital
Partners III L.P. (“EnerTech”), EnerTech and certain members of CoaLogix’s
senior management. CoaLogix Inc. is not a wholly-owned subsidiary of
the Company as reported in the 8-K filed April 13, 2009.
On April 8, 2009, the Company entered
into the Purchase Agreement pursuant to which each of the Company and EnerTech
agreed to purchase from CoaLogix 781,111 shares of common stock for a purchase
price of $5,623,999.20, and certain members of CoaLogix’s senior management
agreed to purchase 36,111 shares of common stock of CoaLogix for an aggregate
purchase price of $259,999. The Purchase Agreement provides that the
Company, EnerTech and senior management will purchase such shares of common
stock in installments as funding is needed by CoaLogix for plant expansion,
technology development, legal expenses and computer
software. Following completion of the stock purchase under the
Purchase Agreement, the Company would own 72.28% of CoaLogix.
In connection with the Company entering
into the Purchase Agreement, the Company, CoaLogix, EnerTech and the senior
management of CoaLogix entered into an Amended and Restated Stockholders’
Agreement dated as of April 8, 2009 (the “Amended Stockholders’
Agreement”). The Amended Stockholders’ Agreement amended and restated
the Stockholders’ Agreement dated as of February 29, 2008 entered into by the
Company, CoaLogix, EnerTech and the senior management of CoaLogix (the “Original
Stockholders’ Agreement”). The Original Stockholders’ Agreement was
amended and restated to provide the Company and EnerTech with a right of first
offer to purchase new securities issued by CoaLogix in the future on a pro-rata
basis and with reciprocal rights of first refusal and co-sale in connection with
proposed transfers of their CoaLogix stock. The senior management of
CoaLogix who have purchased CoaLogix stock under the Purchase Agreement also
have co-sale rights in connection with proposed transfers of their CoaLogix
stock.
Under the Amended Stockholders’
Agreement, EnerTech and the Company granted each other reciprocal rights with
respect to their CoaLogix stock pursuant to which either of them can give notice
to the other of its offer to buy the CoaLogix stock of the other, or to sell its
CoaLogix stock to the other, at the price stated in the notice. The
recipient of the notice will have the option to tender its shares at the stated
price or to acquire the offeror’s shares at the stated price. Senior
management of CoaLogix who have purchased CoaLogix stock under the Purchase
Agreement may elect to sell their CoaLogix stock to whichever of the Company or
EnerTech is the buyer on the same terms as stated in such notice.
The consent of EnerTech is required
under the Amended Stockholders’ Agreement for any action that creates,
authorizes or issues any class of stock or securities of CoaLogix having any
right, preference, privilege, power or priority superior to its common stock, or
any debt or lease transaction resulting in an obligation to CoaLogix in excess
of $3,000,000.
