Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On June 30, 2024, Yunhong Green CTI Ltd. (“YGCTI” or the “Company”), entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “APA”) with Yunhong Environmental Protection Technology Co., Ltd., a company incorporated under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (the “Seller”), Yunhong China Group Co., Ltd., a company incorporated under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (“Yunhong China Group” and together with the Seller, the “Seller Parties”), and Yunhong Technology Industry (Hubei) Co. Ltd., a company incorporated under the laws of the People’s Republic of China and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “China Subsidiary” and together with the Company, the “Buyer”).
The Company entered into the APA and completed the transactions provided for therein (collectively, the “Transaction”). At the Company’s 2023 annual meeting of shareholders, the Company’s shareholders approved an increase in the Company’s authorized shares of common stock, to facilitate the Company’s stated intention to look for opportunities to acquire productive assets. This Transaction was intended to provide the Company with expanded manufacturing capabilities which may help its current business as well as potential new products incorporating compostable, biodegradable and recyclable materials. The Transaction is also intended to better connect the Company with the capabilities of the Yunhong China Group to help improve the Company’s competitiveness.
The APA provides for the purchase by Buyer of machinery and equipment operated by Seller in Yunhong Health Industrial Park as well as the Working Capital Credit (as further described below) and other ancillary assets relating to the foregoing (collectively, the “Purchased Assets”). The Purchased Assets include a working capital credit in the amount of $2,192,229 which shall be available for use by Buyer to pay any operational expenses, including but not limited to, purchase of inventory, payment of accounts payable, and other day-to-day business expenses (the “Working Capital Credit”). The Buyer may utilize the Working Capital Credit at its discretion to support the ongoing operations of the acquired business. No outstanding liabilities were assumed by Buyer as a result of the Transaction. The value of the acquired machinery and equipment included in the Purchased Assets was determined by an independent third-party appraiser for the purposes of the Transaction.
The APA provides for a purchase price in the form of the issuance of 3,246,217 shares of the Company’s common stock (“Shares”) to the Seller (the “Seller CTI Shares”) and 1,753,783 Shares to Yunhong China Group (the “Yunhong China Group CTI Shares” and collectively with the Seller CTI Shares, the “Purchase Price Shares”). All of the Purchase Price Shares were issued at a price equal to the market price of Shares as of the date of closing.
The Seller Parties are majority owned and controlled by Mr. Yuabo Li, the Company’s Chairman and a member of the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”). The APA and the Transaction were reviewed and approved by the disinterested members of the Board following full disclosure of relevant information.
The Purchase Price Shares will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, and were issued in reliance on the exemption from registration requirements thereof provided by Section 4(a)(2) thereof.
This summary is not intended to include all terms of the APA, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.
