On August 28, 2014, Greenbacker Renewable Energy Company LLC (the “Company”), through a wholly-owned subsidiary, entered into a definitive agreement to acquire a company (the “Acquired Company”) owning a portfolio of utility, municipal, commercial and residential solar photovoltaic systems comprising approximately 860 kilowatts of generation capacity (the “Sunny Mountain Portfolio”) for a maximum purchase price of $880,000, plus closing costs. Subject to the satisfaction of certain closing conditions, the Company will fund the entire purchase price into escrow to be released in accordance with the terms of the definitive agreement. The Company will receive the economic benefits of ownership effective as of September 1, 2014. The Company has the right to return specified assets to the sellers if certain conditions are not met by December 1, 2014 with a corresponding reduction in the overall purchase price. We financed the purchase of the Sunny Mountain Portfolio using net proceeds from our public offering of shares of the Company.
