Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On June 9, 2015, the Company entered into a binding term sheet with Innovative Solar Systems, LLC, a solar developer operating primarily in North Carolina, to acquire Innovative Solar 37, LLC ("Principal Solar VII" or "PS VII"), the owner of a 78.7 mw AC solar project to be built in Anson County, North Carolina. PS VII holds a 10-year flat rate power purchase agreement with Duke Energy Progress, Inc. PSI will acquire 100% of the membership interest of PS VII in a series of payments of approximately $300,000 per month between execution of the membership interest purchase agreement to be negotiated between the parties on or before June 30, 2015, and the financial close (the point at which all project financing is arranged). Payments will also include a balloon payment at financial close sufficient to having cumulatively paid 78% of the $5.5 million purchase price. The remaining 22% of the purchase price will be paid in installments of $150,000 per month through the project's commercial operation date. The total cost of the project, based upon the preliminary work, is expected to be approximately $140 million for which the Company has not yet begun to source financing.

 

Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

 

The matter described in Item 1.01 herein includes an obligation to make a series of payments toward the final closing on the acquisition of PS VII.
