On January 11, 2022 (the “Closing Date”), Array Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) completed its previously announced acquisition (the “STI Acquisition”) of Soluciones Técnicas Integrales Norland, S.L., a Spanish private limited liability company, and its subsidiaries (collectively, “STI”), pursuant to that certain definitive agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated as of November 10, 2021, by and among Array Tech, Inc, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, Amixa Capital, S.L. and Aurica Trackers, S.L., each a company duly organized under the laws of the Kingdom of Spain, and Mr. Javier Reclusa Etayo.

In accordance with the Purchase Agreement, the Company paid closing consideration to STI consisting of €361 million (approximately $409 million) in cash (the “Cash Consideration”) and 13,894,800 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Equity Consideration”).

The material terms of the Purchase Agreement and Registration Rights Agreement were previously disclosed in Item 1.01 of the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on November 11, 2021, which is incorporated herein by reference. The descriptions of the Purchase Agreement and Registration Rights Agreement included or incorporated by reference in this Current Report on Form 8-K are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement and the Registration Right Agreement, which are filed as Exhibit 2.1 and Exhibit 10.1, respectively, hereto, and are incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 3.02

Unregistered Sale of Equity Securities.

As previously disclosed in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 11, 2021, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with BCP Helios Aggregator L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Purchaser”), an investment vehicle of funds affiliated with Blackstone Inc., on August 10, 2021. Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, on August 11, 2021, the Company issued and sold to the Purchaser and BEFIP III - ESC Helios Holdco L.P. (together with the Purchaser, the “Purchaser Funds”) 350,000 shares of a newly designated Series A Perpetual Preferred Stock of the Company, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series A Perpetual Preferred Stock”) and 7,098,765 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”). Further, pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, upon the expiry of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, the Company issued and sold to the Purchaser Funds 776,235 shares of Common Stock on September 27, 2021.

Also as previously disclosed, the Securities Purchase Agreement provides that until June 30, 2023, the Company shall have the option to require the Purchaser Funds to purchase, in the aggregate, in one or more additional closings (the “Additional Closings”), up to 150,000 shares (the “Delayed Draw Commitment”) of the Series A Perpetual Preferred Stock and up to 3,375,000 shares of Common Stock (or up to 6,100,000 shares of Common Stock in the event of certain price-related adjustments) (subject to certain equitable adjustments pursuant to any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination, reclassification or similar transaction) for an aggregate purchase price up to $148 million.
