Section 2 — Financial Information
Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
On March 30, 2007, Avalon Oil & Gas, Inc. (“Avalon”) announced that it acquired Leak Location Technologies, Inc. (“LLTI”) from UTEK Corporation (“UTEK”) in a stock transaction pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Acquisition between Avalon, LLTI and UTEK dated March 28, 2007 (“Agreement”). LLTI holds the exclusive license to a patented technology developed by researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute which uses sound signals and sensors to detect and locate leaks in underground pipes. In the transaction, UTEK exchanged all issued and outstanding shares of LLTI for 36,710,526 shares of Avalon’s common stock which, in addition to the 35,131,142 shares of Avalon’s common stock previously held by UTEK, represents 21.8% of Avalon’s issued and outstanding common stock. From March 28, 2007 through March 27, 2008, UTEK’s aggregate interest in Avalon will be subject to be proportionately increased if Avalon’s number of issued and outstanding shares increases as a result of issuing additional equity securities to any of its current management or directors except by reason of those parties’ conversion of preferred stock that they owned prior to this transaction.
A copy of the Agreement is attached to this Form 8-K as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.01.
Avalon made these announcements in a press release dated March 30, 2007 (the “Press Release”), which Press Release provides details not included in previously issued reports. A copy of the Press Release is furnished with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1.
