1Blooming Green Energy Limited (the “SPC”) is deemed a member of a group with SK and Econovation with respect to the 13,194,701 shares of the Issuer’s Class A Common Stock to be acquired by Econovation; however, because SK is currently the managing member of Econovation, the SPC is not deemed to have voting or dispositive power over the 13,194,701 shares of the Issuer’s Class A Common Stock and is therefore not a beneficial owner of such shares.

Explanatory Note

The Early Close Agreement is filed as Exhibit D.

 

(ii)The entry, on March 9, 2023, of the Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Econovation SPA”) among SK, Blooming Green Energy Limited, a company formed under the laws of the Republic of Korea (the “SPC” and together with SK and Econovation, the “Reporting Persons”), Econovation and ESG Blooming Private Equity Fund, a private equity fund formed under the laws of the Republic of Korea (the “PEF”), pursuant to which the SPC agreed to purchase Class A Common Membership Interests from SK and related matters disclosed in this Amendment.

Paragraphs 4-6 of Item 3 of Schedule 13D are hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

 

The information set forth in Item 4 of this Schedule 13D/A is hereby incorporated herein by reference.

 

The initial source of funds for SK’s payment of the price of $310,957,102 to the Issuer for the Second Tranche Share will be from SK’s cash from its balance sheet and borrowed funds. SK is paying for these shares pursuant to the Issuer SPA, the Side Letter, the Side Letter Amendment and the Early Close Agreement, pursuant to which, in effect, the Issuer is issuing the shares to Econovation and Econovation is crediting SK with 13,491,701 Class A Common Membership Interests of Econovation. SK, Econovation and the Issuer expect to close the Second Trance purchase by March 31, 2023.

 

A secondary source of funds for the payment of the purchase price for the Second Tranche Shares is expected to come from the purchase by the SPC of up to 6,610,934 Class A Common Membership Interests of Econovation from SK for up to $152,859,040 at a purchase price of $23.122 per Common Membership Interest, each in Korean Won and converted from U.S. Dollars at the applicable exchange rate on the date the Issuer issued the Second Tranche Shares to Econovation, pursuant to the Econovation SPA.

For the avoidance of doubt, in each case, SK’s beneficial ownership of the Issuer’s Common Stock includes that of Econovation.

 

The descriptions of the Issuer SPA, Side Letter, Side Letter Amendment, Early Close Agreement and the Econovation SPA summarized in this Item 3 are not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such agreement, which is filed hereto or incorporated by reference herein as Exhibits A through E.

(ii)The purchase by the SPC of up to 6,610,934 Class A Common Membership Interests of Econovation from SK for up to $152,859,040 at a purchase price of $23.122 per Common Membership Interest, each converted into U.S. Dollars at the applicable exchange rate on the date the Issuer issued the Second Tranche Shares to Econovation, pursuant to the Econovation SPA.

 

Paragraph 6 of Item 4 of Schedule 13D is hereby amended in its entirety as follows:

Item 4 of Schedule 13D is further amended by adding the following prior to the ultimate paragraph therein:

 

Early Close Agreement

 

On February 27, 2023, the Issuer, SK and Econovation entered into the Early Close Agreement, pursuant to which the parties agreed to consummate the closing of the purchase of the Second Tranche Shares by March 31, 2023, in accordance with the terms of the Side Letter Amendment, and for the Issuer to issue the Second Tranche Shares to Econovation in consideration for the payment of the purchase price to the Issuer. The substitution of Econovation for SK as the party receiving the Second Tranche Shares was made, in addition to the terms of the Early Close Agreement, also pursuant to the terms of the Issuer SPA and the Investor Agreement dated as of December 29, 2021 between the Issuer and SK. The Investor Agreement was previously filed as Exhibit D to the Original 13D and is incorporated by reference as Exhibit F hereto.

 

In addition, the Early Close Agreement modifies the Investor Agreement, which permitted the Assignment, as follows:

 

The standstill provision, under Section 2 of the Investor Agreement, that restricts SK’s ability to purchase additional shares of Class A Common Stock of the Issuer also applies to Econovation, for a period commencing on December 9, 2022 until the later of the second anniversary of the Second Tranche closing date, the date on which SK ceases to have a right to designate a director of the Board of Directors of the Issuer and the date on which SK or Econovation own less than 5% of the outstanding Class A Common Stock of the Issuer. The standstill restriction is subject to specified exceptions, such as certain permitted purchases and their pre-emptive rights.

 

Page 7

 

 

The lock-up provision, under Section 3 of the Investor Agreement, that restricts SK’s ability to sell Class A Common Stock also applies to Econovation, for a period of two years after the Second Tranche closing date. The lock-up agreement terminates upon a change of control of the Issuer or the Company filing a self-tender offer pursuant to Section 14D-9 of the Act.

 

The voting agreement, under Section 4 of the Investor Agreement, that requires SK to vote or execute a written consent with respect to all voting securities of the Issuer as to which it is entitled to vote or execute a written consent in accordance with recommendation of a majority of the Board of Directors of the Issuer, for the same period of time as the standstill provision, also applies to Econovation.

 

The board designation right, under Section 5 of the Investor Agreement, that provides SK with the right to designate a member of the Board of Directors of the Issuer, subject to the conditions of the Investor Agreement including the nomination and governance policies of the Issuer, is remaining with SK and is not being assigned to Econovation.

 

The pre-emptive rights, under Section 6 of the Investor Agreement, that provides SK with the right to purchase its fully diluted ownership of shares of Class A Common Stock of the Issuer starting as of the Second Tranche closing date, subject to the terms and conditions of the Investor Agreement, is being also provided to Econovation.

 

The description of the Early Close Agreement contained in this Item 4 is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such agreement, which is filed as Exhibit D hereto.

 

Econovation SPA

 

On March 9, 2023, Econovation, SK, the SPC and the PEF entered into the Econovation SPA, pursuant to which the SPC has agreed to purchase up to a maximum amount of 6,610,934 Class A Common Membership Interests of Econovation for up to the Korean Won equivalent of $152,859,040 in cash in one of two closings. The first closing, which is expected to be by March 31, 2023 or such earlier date upon which the parties may agree (unless otherwise extended due to a delay in regulatory approval), is for minimum number of Class A Common Membership Interests at least equal to 120 billion Korean Won, converted into U.S. Dollars at the applicable exchange rate on the date the Issuer issued the Second Tranche Shares to Econovation, at a purchase price of $23.122 per Common Membership Interest. The parties may increase the number of Class A Common Membership Interests to be sold at the first closing up to the maximum amount. At the second closing, scheduled for April 28, 2023 or such earlier date upon which the parties may agree, the number of Class A Common Membership Interests to be sold is for up to the remaining number of total Class A Common Membership Interests that the SPC may purchase, using the same calculation as with the first closing . If the SPC does not close on the purchase in the first closing, SK has the right to terminate the agreement or seek the remedy of specific performance and force the SPC to close. Upon the SPC’s purchase of Class A Common Membership Interests of Econovation from SK, Econovation will admit the SPC as a Member, pursuant to an Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of Econovation, and the parties will enter into a Members Agreement. The parties have agreed to negotiate the terms of the Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement and the Members Agreement by March 17, 2023. The Econovation SPA contains customary terms, conditions and other provisions regarding the purchase and sale of the Class A Common Membership Interests of Econovation.

 

The description of the Econovation SPA contained in this Item 4 is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such agreement, which is filed as Exhibit E hereto.

As of February 28, 2023, based on information provided to us by the Issuer and after giving effect to (a) SK’s ownership of Class A Common Stock and (b) Econovation’s purchase of Class A Common Stock on the date of closing of the Second Tranche Share purchase, SK and Econovation beneficially owns approximately (x) 11.5% and 6.6%, respectively, of the outstanding Class A Common Stock of the Issuer and (y) 6.5% and 3.7%, respectively, of the outstanding voting stock of the Issuer, including for purposes of this calculation the Issuer’s outstanding Class B Common Stock. For the avoidance of doubt, in each case, SK’s beneficial ownership of the Issuer’s Common Stock includes that of Econovation.

 

(c) Except as set forth in this Schedule 13D/A, neither SK, Econovation nor the SPC has effected any transactions in the Class A Common Stock in the past 60 days.

 

(d) Except as described in this Schedule 13D/A, no other person is known by the Reporting Persons to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the common stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons.
