1.02.       Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On May 4, 2017, EnSync, Inc. (the “Company”) provided notice to SPI Solar Inc. (formerly known as Solar Power, Inc.) (“SPI”), that pursuant to Section 18(c) of that certain Supply Agreement dated July 13, 2015 between the Company (formerly known as ZBB Energy Corporation) and SPI (the “Supply Agreement”), the Company had terminated the Supply Agreement, effective immediately.

 

Pursuant to the Supply Agreement the Company agreed to sell and SPI agreed to purchase energy management system solutions for solar projects and related services having an aggregated total of at least 5 megawatts of energy storage rated power output within the first year of the Supply Agreement, 15 megawatts within the first two years, 25 megawatts within the first three years, and 40 megawatts within the first four years of the Supply Agreement. The Company terminated the Supply Agreement due to SPI’s materially breaching the agreement by failing to make any purchases under it.

 

Concurrently with entering into the Supply Agreement the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with SPI pursuant to which the Company sold to SPI 28,048 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Purchased Preferred Shares”) and a warrant to purchase 50,000,000 shares of Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $36,729,000 (the “Warrant”). The Purchased Preferred Shares were potentially convertible at a conversion price of $0.6678 into a total of up to 42,000,600 shares of Common Stock based upon SPI’s satisfying its purchase obligations under the Supply Agreement. The Warrant represented the right to acquire 50,000,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price equal to $0.7346 but only following SPI’s fully satisfying its purchase obligations under the Supply Agreement. Because of the termination of the Supply Agreement, it is no longer possible for SPI to satisfy the conditions that would have enabled it to convert its Purchase Preferred Shares into Common Stock. Similarly, it is no longer possible for the Warrant acquired by SPI to become exercisable.
