Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On June 8, 2021 Terra Tech Corp. (the “Company”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with two accredited investors (collectively, the “Buyers”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell to the Buyers an aggregate of 593,260 shares of common stock (the “Hydrofarm Common Stock”) of Hydrofarm Holdings Group, Inc. (“Hydrofarm”) and warrants (the “Hydrofarm Warrants”) to purchase an aggregate of 296,630 shares of Hydrofarm Common Stock at a current exercise price of $16.86 per share, which represents all of the Hydrofarm Common Stock and Hydrofarm Warrants owned by the Company.
The purchase price payable by the Buyers to the Company for each share of Hydrofarm Common Stock is equal to 90% of the average daily volume weighted average price of the Hydrofarm Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg (the “VWAP”) for the three consecutive trading days beginning on June 8, 2021. The purchase price payable by the Buyers to the Company for each Hydrofarm Warrant is equal to 90% of the average VWAP of the Hydrofarm Common Stock for the three consecutive trading days beginning on June 8, 2021, less the exercise price per Hydrofarm Warrant of $16.86. The aggregate purchase price payable for the Hydrofarm Common Stock and Hydrofarm Warrants is $40,757,175. The Company has agreed to pay a selling agent a fee in the amount of 3% of the aggregate purchase price paid by the Buyers to the Company for the Hydrofarm Common Stock and Hydrofarm Warrants.
The SPA contains customary representations, warranties and covenants made by the Company and the Buyers. The Closing of the transactions contemplated by the SPA is subject to satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions as set forth in the SPA and will occur promptly following transfer of the Hydrofarm Common Stock and Hydrofarm Warrants from the Company to the Buyers. The SPA includes customary termination rights for the Company and the Buyers.
As of the date of the SPA and the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, there are no other material relationships between the Company or any of the Company’s affiliates and either of the Buyers, other than in respect of the SPA.
The foregoing description of the SPA is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such document, a form of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K (this “Report”) and which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.
