Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
|
On August 1, 2011, Green Planet Group, Inc. (“GNPG”) entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with the shareholders of Arizona Independent Power, Inc. (“AIP”), a Nevada corporation, to acquire all of the issued and outstanding stock of that company. The sellers are not and have not been associated with GNPG. The purchase price to the Sellers is one million common shares of GNPG, a contingent note payable in the amount of $2 million, payable when GNPG has raised $5 million for the initial exploration as described below, and a contingent Note for $9 million due when the license to construction and operate the underlying project.
The sole asset of AIP is its permit from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”) for AIP to explore, evaluate and file an environmental impact report and application for the construction and operation of the Verde Pumped Storage Project in Maricopa County, Arizona. The pumped storage system is a renewable green energy electrical power source similar to others already operating in the United States and around the world. The exploration and licensing phase could take six to nine months from funding and the construction phase could be as long as five years with an aggregate construction cost in excess of $1.2 billion.
AIP has no employees, has had no sales or revenue, and no assets other than the permit. The estimated cost of the studies and licensing process is estimated at $50 to $80 million. GNPG is currently working to secure this financing.
