TABLE OF CONTENTS
Item 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
On December 19, 2003, WEGI Acquisition, LLC (“Purchaser”), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Abrams Industries, Inc. (“Abrams”), acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of The Wheatstone Energy Group, Inc. (“Seller”). Seller was engaged in the business of providing energy efficient lighting system installation services, including electrical and other related energy conservation services, and Purchaser presently intends to continue this business. The acquisition was made pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization dated December 19, 2003, between Abrams, the Purchaser, Seller and the shareholders of Seller (the “Agreement”). The consideration consisted of 23,489 newly-issued shares of Abrams’ common stock, par value $1.00 per share (“Common Stock”), the payment by Purchaser of approximately $1.0 million to certain trade creditors of Seller from the available cash of Purchaser, and the assumption by Purchaser of approximately $2.7 million of Seller’s liabilities. Also in connection with the transaction, Abrams issued 110,000 shares of Common Stock and a warrant to purchase an additional 40,000 shares at an exercise price of $5.10 per share to a lender of Seller. Consideration was determined primarily by negotiation among the parties.
Pursuant to the Agreement, the Purchaser acquired substantially all of the assets of Seller, including accounts, inventory, personal property and equipment, proprietary information, intellectual property and the Seller’s right, title and interest to assigned contracts. As described in the Agreement, Purchaser assumed only specified liabilities of the Seller, including executory obligations under disclosed assigned contracts, current balance sheet liabilities of the Seller and certain debt for borrowed funds from two lenders of the Seller. Pursuant to the Agreement, after the closing of the acquisition, the Purchaser changed its name to The Wheatstone Energy Group, LLC, and Seller adopted a dissimilar name.
The preceding description of the terms of the Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Agreement, filed as an exhibit hereto.
