SCHEDULE 13D

 

This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 27, 2021 (the “Original Schedule 13D”) and is being filed by the undersigned, pursuant to §240.13d-1(a), with respect to the common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Nuvve Holding Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), whose principal executive offices are located at 2468 Historic Decatur Road, San Diego, CA 92106. Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment does not modify any of the information previously reported on the Original Schedule 13D. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Amendment shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Original Schedule 13D.

 

 

The information set forth in Item 4 is incorporated by reference in its entirety into this Item 3.

 

 

Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following information:

 

On August 4, 2021, the transactions contemplated by the Letter Agreement, including the formation of Levo, were consummated pursuant to the terms and conditions thereof (the “Closing”). In connection with the Closing, Stonepeak entered into, among other definitive agreements, (i) a Board Rights Agreement (the “Board Rights Agreement”), dated as of the Closing, by and among Stonepeak (together with its affiliates that own Common Stock or the preferred units of Levo, the “Investors”) and the Issuer and (ii) a Parent Letter Agreement (the “Parent Letter Agreement”), dated as of the Closing, by and among the Issuer, Levo, Stonepeak and Evolve.

 

Pursuant to the Board Rights Agreement, for so long as the Investors collectively own at least 10% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock, the Investors will have the right to appoint one designee (the “Investor Director”) to serve on the Board and on one committee of the Board designated by the Investors. Further, at any time the Investors collectively own at least 15% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock, the Investors will have the right to appoint the Investor Director to two committees of the Board, and, if at any time the Investors collectively own at least 25% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock, the Investors will have the right to appoint the Investor Director to any committees of the Board. Additionally, for so long as the Investors own (i) any preferred units of Levo or (ii) at least 10% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock, the Investors have the right to appoint two individual representatives to attend all meetings of the Board in a non-voting observer capacity (the “Board Observer”); however, if there is an Investor Director then serving on the Board, the Investor has the right to appoint one Board Observer instead of two.

 

Pursuant to the Parent Letter Agreement, the Issuer has agreed to certain restrictive covenants with respect to Levo’s business, including (i) a covenant to present business opportunities with respect to Levo’s business to Levo and not to compete with Levo in connection with such opportunities in North America, subject to limited exceptions, and (ii) a covenant granting Stonepeak a right of first offer to participate in such business opportunities outside of North America and in future financing transactions of the Issuer.

 

The summaries contained herein of the Board Rights Agreement and Parent Letter Agreement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of such documents, which are included as Exhibit B and Exhibit C to this Amendment, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.

 

 

The information set forth in Item 5(a) of the Original Schedule 13D is amended as follows:

 

The foregoing beneficial ownership percentage is based on the sum of (i) 18,714,215 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer outstanding as of June 30, 2021, as reported in the Issuer’s Registration Statement on Form S-1, dated as of July 16, 2021, and (ii) 11,000,000 shares of Common Stock issuable to the Reporting Persons as described in Item 4.

 

 

SIGNATURE

 

After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, I certify that the information set forth in this statement is true, complete and correct.
