This Amendment No. 6 (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the Statement on Schedule 13D originally filed by the Reporting Persons named therein with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 8, 2020, as amended by Amendment No.1 filed on April 22, 2021, as further amended by Amendment No.2 filed on August 18, 2022, as further amended by Amendment No.3 filed on May 17, 2023, as further amended by Amendment No.4 filed on May 24, 2023, and as further amended by Amendment No.5 filed on June 17, 2024 (as amended, the “Schedule 13D”) with respect to the ordinary shares, no par value (the “Ordinary Shares”) of Maxeon Solar Technologies, Ltd. (the “Issuer”). Except as specifically amended and supplemented by this Amendment, the Schedule 13D remains in full force and effect. All capitalized terms used and not expressly defined herein have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Schedule 13D.

Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby supplemented by adding the following:

On June 20, 2024, pursuant to the previously disclosed Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of May 30, 2024 (the “New 1L Notes Purchase Agreement”), TZS purchased $97,500,000 aggregate principal amount of the Issuer’s new 9.00% Convertible First Lien Senior Secured Notes due 2029 (the “New 1L Notes”), for an aggregate purchase price of $97,500,000, of which $70,000,000 was paid by TZS in the form of cash as described in Item 4.  TZS also acquired a warrant (the “TZS Warrant”) for no additional consideration to purchase certain Ordinary Shares of the Issuer under certain circumstances.  The source of funds used for TZS’s purchase of the New 1L Notes was funds of TZS Parent and its affiliates available for investment.

 

 

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby supplemented by adding the following:

 

As previously disclosed in the Schedule 13D, TZS and the Issuer entered into a Forward Purchase Agreement dated as of June 14, 2024 (the “Forward Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, TZS agreed to purchase and the Issuer agreed to sell Ordinary Shares of the Issuer for an aggregate purchase price of $100,000,000 (the “Forward Purchase Transaction”).  Consummation of the Forward Purchase Transaction will be subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, including receipt of required regulatory approvals.  The Ordinary Shares subject to the Forward Purchase Transaction are not reflected in TZS’s beneficial ownership as reported in this Amendment.  It is expected that TZS would hold at least 50.1% of the Issuer’s outstanding Ordinary Shares following consummation of the Forward Purchase Transaction.

 

The information disclosed in this Item 4 does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Supplemental Deed to Shareholders Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibits 7.16 and which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

 

Other than as described in Item 4 of this Amendment or as previously reported in the Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons do not currently have any plans or proposals that relate to, or would result in, any of the actions described in Item 4 of Schedule 13D, although, subject to the Shareholders Agreement and depending on the factors discussed herein, the Reporting Persons, at any time and from time to time, may review, reconsider and/or change their position or purpose or formulate different plans or proposals with respect thereto and, at any time and from time to time, may seek to influence the Board or management of the Issuer with respect to the business and affairs of the Issuer and may from time to time consider pursuing or proposing such matters with advisors, the Issuer or other persons.

 

Item 6 of the Schedule 13D is hereby supplemented by adding the following:

 

Item 4 of this Amendment is incorporated herein by reference.

 

 

 Item 7 of the Schedule 13D is hereby supplemented by adding the following:
