Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On December 14, 2018, Tecogen Inc. (the “Corporation”) entered into Amendment No. 1 to, and Waiver No. 1 under, Credit Agreement dated May 4, 2018 (the “Credit Agreement”) among the Corporation, American DG Energy Inc. (“ADGE”), and TTCogen LLC (collectively, the “Borrowers”) and Webster Business Credit Corporation (“Lender”) (the “Amendment and Waiver”) pursuant to which Lender waived restrictions in the Credit Agreement to (1) permit ADGE to form a wholly owned subsidiary (“Newco”) to which ADGE contributed its interests in two agreements and associated assets relating to the generation and sale of energy, and enter into an agreement pursuant to which all equity interests in Newco were sold to an unrelated third party for $2 million, and (2) permit the Corporation to enter into a Billing and Asset Management Agreement and an Operation and Maintenance Service Agreement pursuant to which the Corporation will be responsible for the management and operation of the on-site utilities transferred to Newco, guarantee the payment of certain minimum collections from such on-site utilities, and receive one half of all collections in excess of agreed minimum collections.
Proceeds from the sale of Newco were deposited to ADGE’s account with Lender and applied against the outstanding balance under the Credit Agreement. The Amendment and Waiver also reduced the availability reserve requirement under the Credit Agreement and waived a default relating to a requirement that Borrowers maintain certain Minimum Availability (as defined in the Credit Agreement) at all times through the date of the Amendment and Waiver. The transactions described above increased the amount available to Borrowers under the Credit Agreement, a substantial portion of which will be used to complete certain construction of the on-site utilities managed and operated by the Corporation as described above.
The foregoing description of the Amendment and Waiver is a summary, does not purport to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amendment and Waiver filed as Exhibit 99.01 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
