Item
1.02
Termination
of a Material Definitive Agreement
Cantu Share Purchase Agreement
As
previously reported, on June 29, 2017, we entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with Pronto Verde A.G.
(the “Seller”), relating to the purchase of one hundred percent (100%) of the share capital of Energyeco S.r.l., a
limited liability company organized under the laws of Italy (the “SPV”), which owns and operates a 990 Kw plant for
the production of electricity from vegetal oil located in Cantù, Italy (the “Facility”). We agreed to pay an
aggregate purchase price of €2,200,000 (approximately USD $2,490,000) (the “Purchase Price”) for the SPV, subject
to an adjustment formula to be calculated at the closing. The closing in relation to the SPV was scheduled to take place within
90 days of the date of the SPA, or September 27, 2017, and was subject to specified conditions precedent.
On
November 27, 2017, we notified the Seller that the SPA was terminated because (a) the deadline for consummation of the
closing expired and no agreement to extend the deadline was granted by Blue Sphere, and (b) none of the specified conditions
precedent had materialized. We also demanded the repayment of €150,000 (approximately USD $179,000) paid to escrow under
the SPA, which is reimbursable should the closing not occur due to Seller’s breach or in the event that a condition
precedent to closing does not materialize. We also reserved our right to unspecified damages incurred as a consequence of
documented material representations made in connection with the SPA.
Udine GPOMA
As
previously reported, on September 4, 2017, our indirect wholly-owned Italian subsidiary, Futuris Papia S.p.A. (“Futuris
Papia”), which owns and operates a 995 Kw plant for the production of electricity from vegetal oil located in Udine, Italy,
and the Seller entered into Guarantee Plant Operation Management Agreement (the “Udine GPOMA”). The Udine GPOMA concerned
the performance of services for the operation and maintenance of the facility in Udine, including the supply of vegetal oil
to the facility.
On
November 27, 2017, we notified the Seller that the Udine GPOMA was terminated because, in part, (a) the Seller did not
successfully engage the designated supplier to supply vegetal oil, and Futuris Papia was forced to procure vegetal oil from
another supplier at a higher cost; (b) the Seller and its operator did not diligently perform specified tasks under the Udine
GPOMA, including a proper inspection and review of the facility and preparation of a takeover plan, and Futuris Papia was
forced to procure such services from another operator at a higher cost than contemplated by the Udine GPOMA; and (c) due to a
number of specified breaches by the Seller to perform under the Udine GPOMA. We reserved our right to recover the damages
incurred as a consequence of documented material breaches made in connection with the Udine GPOMA.
