Explanatory Note

This Amendment No. 2 (this “ Amendment ”) amends and supplements the Schedule 13D originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “ SEC ”) on October 20, 2009 and amendment filed on December 4, 2009. This Amendment is being filed to report a change in beneficial ownership by Thomas Eli Conger II. Between the first amendment filing and January 12, 2010, Mr. Conger sold an aggregate 187,428 shares of Common Stock, decreasing his ownership by 1.7%. The total amount of beneficially owned Common Stock held by Mr. Conger following the filing of this Amendment is 655,894 shares, or 5.6% of the Issuer’s outstanding shares. Unless otherwise stated, the information set forth in the original Schedule 13D and prior amendment remains accurate in all respects.

 

Item 1. Security and Issuer.

The class of equity securities to which this Schedule 13D/A relates is the common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “ Common Stock ”), of UTEK Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “ Issuer ”). The address of the principal executive offices of the Issuer is 2109 Palm Avenue, Tampa, Florida 33605.

 

Item 2. Identity and Background.

This Amendment is filed on behalf of Thomas Eli Conger II, (the “ Reporting Person ”) an independent consultant. This filing relates to 655,894 shares of Common Stock held by Mr. Conger. Mr. Conger’s business address is 1776 Massachusetts Avenue, N.W., Suite 815, Washington, D.C. 20036-1907.

During the past five years, the Reporting Person has not been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors), nor was a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction as a result of which such person was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws, or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

Mr. Conger is a citizen of the United States.

 

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

Mr. Conger previously held 998,027 shares of Common Stock, which he received as consideration for the October 2008 sale of his company, Social Technologies, to the Issuer. On November 20, 2009, Mr. Conger sold approximately 24,000 shares of Common Stock which brought the total number of shares of Common Stock sold since October 20, 2009 to 122,625 shares, decreasing his ownership by 1%. Subsequently, Mr. Conger had sold an additional 32,080 shares.

Between the amendment filing and January 12, 2010, Mr. Conger sold an aggregate 187,428 shares of Common Stock, decreasing his ownership by 1.7%. Mr. Conger now holds an aggregate 655,894 shares of Issuer Common Stock.

 

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

The Reporting Person acquired the shares of Common Stock for investment purposes. The Reporting Person may, from time to time, depending upon market conditions and other factors deemed relevant by the Reporting Person, acquire additional shares of Issuer Common Stock. The Reporting Person reserves the right to, and may in the future choose to, change his purpose with respect to his investment and take such actions as he deems appropriate in light of the circumstances including, without limitation, to dispose of, in the open market, in a private transaction or by gift, all or a portion of the shares of Issuer Common Stock which he now owns or may hereafter acquire, subject to the sale restrictions outlined below in Item 6.

(i) A class of equity securities of the issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Exchange Act; or

(j) Any action similar to any of those actions enumerated above.

As of the date of this filing, Mr. Conger may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of an aggregate of 655,894 shares of Issuer Common Stock, which represents 5.6% of the Issuer Common Stock outstanding as of the date of this statement.
