Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On April 3, 2019, Terra Tech Corp. (the “Company”), entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with an accredited investor, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell in a registered direct offering (the “Offering”) an aggregate of 1,408,451 shares (the “Shares”) of common stock of the Company, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at an offering price of $0.71 per share, for gross proceeds of $1,000,000. The Company did not incur any fees or expenses in connection with the Offering. The Shares are being offered by the Company pursuant to a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-227219), which was initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on September 7, 2018, and was declared effective by the Commission on October 11, 2018 (the “Registration Statement”), and a related prospectus.

 

The closing of the Offering is subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement and is expected to occur on or around April 3, 2019. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Purchase Agreement were made solely for the benefit of the parties to the Purchase Agreement. In addition, such representations, warranties and covenants (i) are intended as a way of allocating the risk between the parties to the Purchase Agreement and not as statements of fact, and (ii) may apply standards of materiality in a way that is different from what may be viewed as material by stockholders of, or other investors in, the Company. Accordingly, the Purchase Agreement is filed with this report only to provide investors with information regarding the terms of transaction, and not to provide investors with any other factual information regarding the Company. Stockholders should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the Company. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change after the date of the Purchase Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in public disclosures.

 

The net proceeds to the Company from the Offering are expected to be $1,000,000. The Company currently intends to use these net proceeds for working capital and general corporate purposes.

 

The legal opinion of Baker & Hostetler LLP relating to the legality of the issuance and sale of the Shares in the Offering is attached as Exhibit 5.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

 

The description of terms and conditions of the form of Purchase Agreement set forth herein do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by the full text of the form of Purchase Agreement which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1.
