Section 1 – Registrant’s Business and Operations

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Wells Fargo Amendment No. 5

On February 24, 2012, Lighting Science Group Corporation (the “Company”) and its domestic wholly-owned subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”) entered into Amendment No. 5 to the Loan and Security Agreement, Consent and Waiver (the “Amendment”), which amends that certain Loan and Security Agreement (the “Wells Fargo Loan Agreement”), dated November 22, 2010, with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo”), in its capacity as issuing bank, agent, and a lender thereunder. Among other things, the Amendment increases the maximum amount of authorized advances or payments to or for the benefit of Lighting Science Group Mexico SRL, a wholly owned foreign subsidiary of the Company (“LSG Mexico”), from $750,000 to (A) $860,000 for the fiscal month ended December 31, 2011, (B) $1,400,000 for the period from January 1, 2012 through March 31, 2012, (C) $1,500,000 for the period from April 1, 2012 through September 30, 2012, and (D) $1,800,000 for October 1, 2012 and for each fiscal month thereafter. Further, Wells Fargo may, in good faith and in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, agree to amend the maximum amount of authorized advances or payments to LSG Mexico. The Amendment also provides the Company with borrowing base eligibility for additional accounts receivable. The Company paid Wells Fargo a fee of $5,000 in connection with the Amendment.

Series G Unit Issuance

On February 24, 2012, the Company entered into a Subscription Agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”) with Mr. Leon Wagner, one of the Company’s directors, pursuant to which the Company issued 2,000 units (the “Series G Units”) of the Company’s securities to Mr. Wagner at a price per Series G Unit of $1,000.00 (the “Series G Offering”) and total consideration of $2,000,000. Each Series G Unit consists of: (i) one share of the Company’s Series G Preferred Stock (the “Series G Preferred Stock”) and (ii) 83 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”).

Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, if, at any time while Mr. Wagner holds any shares of Series G Preferred Stock purchased pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, the Company issues securities (other than pursuant to the Company’s equity-based compensation plans) that result in gross proceeds to the Company of at least $50,000,000 (a “Subsequent Issuance”), the Company must notify Mr. Wagner of the terms and conditions of such Subsequent Issuance. Simultaneous with, and subject to the closing of, such Subsequent Issuance, Mr. Wagner would have the right to: (i) require the Company to use the proceeds of such Subsequent Issuance to redeem all of Mr. Wagner’s Series G Preferred Stock or (ii) convert all or a portion of Mr. Wagner’s Series G Preferred Stock into the securities issued in the Subsequent Issuance on substantially the same terms and conditions governing the Subsequent Issuance. If Mr. Wagner elects to convert his shares of Series G Preferred Stock, he would retain all of the shares of Common Stock issued in conjunction with each converted share of Series G Preferred Stock.

In addition, if, at any time prior to November 17, 2013, the Company issues securities (other than issuances pursuant to the Company’s equity-based compensation plans or pursuant to a Subsequent Issuance) which PCA LSG Holdings, LLC (“PCA”) , in its sole reasonable discretion, determines are more favorable than the Series G Units, Mr. Wagner may exchange all of his Series G Units, valued at the Liquidation Value (as defined in the Certificate of Designation concerning the Series G Preferred Stock) of the Series G Preferred Stock included in such Series G Units, for such newly issued securities.


The Company’s Committee of Independent Directors, which is comprised entirely of independent directors not affiliated with PCA or Pegasus Partners IV, L.P. (“Pegasus”), approved the Series G Offering. The Company also obtained Wells Fargo’s consent to the transactions contemplated by the Subscription Agreement.

Certificate of Increase

In conjunction with the Series G Offering, on February 24, 2012, the Company filed a Certificate of Increase (the “Certificate of Increase”) to the Certificate of Designation concerning the Series G Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware increasing the number of authorized shares of Series G Preferred Stock from 40,000 to 80,000 shares.

The foregoing description of the Certificate of Increase, the Amendment and the Subscription Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Certificate of Increase, the Amendment and the Subscription Agreement, which are filed as Exhibits 4.1, 10.1, and 10.2, respectively, to this Current Report and are incorporated herein by reference.
