Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
     On November 25, 2009, PowerSecure, Inc. (“PowerSecure”), a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of PowerSecure International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into lease financing arrangement (the “Lease Financing”) under a Master Lease Agreement (the “Master Lease”) with BB&T Equipment Finance Corporation (“Lessor”), an affiliate of BB&T Corporation. The Company intends to use the proceeds of the Lease Financing to finance recurring revenue projects as well as to provide working capital. The Company intends to account for the Lease Financing as an operating lease in its consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
     Under the terms of the Master Lease, PowerSecure may, from time to time, lease from Lessor certain distributed generation equipment installed on customer sites (the “Equipment”) for a term and with monthly rent payable by PowerSecure based on the price of the Equipment, market conditions, and interest rates in effect at the time each specific Lease Financing arrangement under this Master Lease is established. The Master Lease, and all specific Lease Financing arrangements thereunder, are guaranteed by the Company under a Master Lease Guaranty (the “Guaranty”). Under the Guaranty, the Company has unconditionally guaranteed the obligations of PowerSecure under the Master Lease for the benefit of the Lessor. The Master Lease and the Guaranty constitute permitted indebtedness under the Company’s current credit facility, under which an affiliate of the Lessor is one of the lenders.
     The Master Lease provides PowerSecure with limited rights, subject to the Lessor’s approval, which will not be unreasonably withheld, to substitute equipment during the term of each lease entered into under the Master Lease, or, in the event PowerSecure’s service contract with its customer terminates, to purchase the Equipment for the greater of its fair market value or a predetermined stipulated loss value. The Master Lease also contains customary representations and warranties, covenants relating to the use and maintenance of the Equipment, indemnification, and events of default, including payment defaults, breach of representations and warranties, covenant defaults, cross-defaults, and certain bankruptcy and insolvency events, customary for leases of this nature. The Master Lease further grants to Lessor certain remedies upon a default, including the right to cancel the Master Lease, to accelerate all rent payments for the remainder of the term of the Master Lease, to recover liquidated damages, or to repossess and re-lease, sell or otherwise dispose of the Equipment.
     On November 27, 2009, under the Master Lease, PowerSecure entered into a specific Lease Financing arrangement for distributed generation equipment deployed in conjunction with recurring revenue service agreements with customers totaling $604,540 (the “Initial Lease Financing Arrangement”). The Initial Lease Financing Arrangement was facilitated through a sale-and-leaseback transaction. The term of lease (the “Initial Lease”) in the Initial Lease Financing Arrangement is 84 months, and the monthly lease payment is approximately $7,250. PowerSecure has the option to purchase the equipment financed thereby at a price of $157,712 on June 1, 2016. At the expiration of the 84 month term of the Initial Lease, PowerSecure will have the option to renew the Initial Lease for a negotiated term at the fair market value of the leased equipment, or to purchase the leased equipment for its fair market value.
     The foregoing description of the Master Lease, the Guaranty and the Initial Lease Financing Arrangement does not purport to be a complete statement of the parties’ rights and obligations thereunder, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of such agreements, which are filed as Exhibits 10.1 through 10.5 to this Report and incorporated herein by this reference.
