Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On March 8, 2013, Revolution Lighting Technologies, Inc. (“Revolution” or the “Company”), entered into an Investment Agreement (the “Investment Agreement”) with Great American Insurance Company (“Great American”) and Great American Life Insurance Company (“Great American Life” and together with Great American, the “Investors”), each a wholly-owned subsidiary of American Financial Group, Inc., and closed the transactions contemplated by the Investment Agreement. The Company issued to each Investor (i) 2,136,752 shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”) and (ii) the right to receive an aggregate of up to an additional 1,250,000 shares of Common Stock in consideration of cash payments of $2.5 million each, for a total investment of $5 million (the “Investment”). The proceeds from the Investment are to be used for general corporate and working capital purposes.
Under the Investment Agreement, the Investors are entitled to receive up to an additional 1,250,000 shares of Common Stock (such number of shares is the maximum number issuable to both Investors in the aggregate) if the volume-weighted average price of a share of Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg Financial Markets for the 20 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day prior to March 8, 2014 is less than $1.40.
In connection with the Investment, the Company agreed to grant the Investors certain tag-along registration rights with respect to the Common Stock issued to the Investors.
The Investment Agreement was unanimously approved by the Board of Directors of the Company.
The foregoing is a summary of the material terms of the Investment Agreement. Investors are encouraged to review the entire text of the Investment Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Report and incorporated herein by reference.
