Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On November 16, 2007, China Recycling Energy Corporation (the "Company") and its wholly-owned direct and indirect subsidiaries entered into a Stock and Notes Purchase Agreement ("Purchase Agreement") with Carlyle Asia Growth Partners III, L.P., a limited partnership organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands ("CAGP"), and CAGP III Co-Investment, L.P., a limited partnership organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands (together with CAGP, the "Investors").
Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company sold to the Investors a 10% Secured Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $5,000,000 (the "First Note"). Additionally, the Purchase agreement provides for two subsequent transactions to be effected by the Company and the Investors, which include (i) the issuance by the Company and subscription by the Investors of a total of 4,066,706 shares of common stock of Company, at the price of $1.23 per share for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $5,000,000, and (ii) the issuance and sale by the Company to the Investors of a 5% Secured Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $15,000,000 (the "Second Note" and collectively with the First Note, the "Notes") (the foregoing transactions, together with sale and purchase of the First Note, are hereinafter referred to as the "Offering"). The subsequent transactions are contingent upon the satisfaction of certain conditions specified in the Purchase Agreement, including entry into specified energy and recycling project contracts and the purchase of certain energy recycling systems.
The First Note bears interest at 10% per annum and matures on November 16, 2009. The principal face amount of the First Note, together with any interest thereon, convert, at the option of the holders at any time on or prior to maturity, into shares of the Company’s common stock at an initial conversion price of $1.23 per share (subject to anti-dilution adjustments). The First Note is subject to mandatory conversion upon the consummation of the aforementioned issuance and subscription of shares of the Company’s common stock under the Purchase Agreement. As more fully described in the First Note, the obligations of the Company under the First Note shall rank senior to all other debt of the Company.
