Explanatory Note

 

This Amendment No. 1 supplements and amends the Schedule 13D filed on October 4, 2022 and is made pursuant to Rule 13d-1(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). On October 23, 2021, SK ecoplant Co., Ltd. (“SK” or the “Reporting Person”) entered into that certain Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”), by and between SK and Bloom Energy Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), filed as Exhibit A, under which SK acquired 10,000,000 shares of Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “RCPS”) of the Issuer, convertible by SK into shares of the Issuer’s Class A Common Stock, and an option for SK to purchase 13,491,701 shares of the Issuer’s Class A Common Stock. On August 10, 2022, SK delivered to the Issuer a notice to purchase in the future 13,491,701 shares of Class A Common Stock of the Issuer pursuant to the SPA, with the closing expected to be the latter of (i) the parties receiving clearance from the U.S. Department of Justice and the Federal Trade Commission of the purchase under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1974, as amended, and (ii) December 6, 2022, pursuant to the Side Letter dated August 16, 2022, between SK and the Company (the “Side Letter”), filed as Exhibit B. On December 6, 2022, SK and the Issuer entered into an amendment of the Side Letter (the “Side Letter Amendment”), filed as Exhibit C, whereby SK and the Issuer mutually agreed to delay the Second Closing Date for the purchase of the 13,491,701 shares of Class A Common Stock of the Issuer until March 31, 2023, unless an earlier date is mutually agreed upon and assuming the satisfaction of applicable regulatory clearance. On December 9, 2022, each share of the RCPS was converted into 10,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock.

 

Item 3.Source and Amount of Funds or Other Considerations

 

Item 3 of Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

 

The information set forth in Item 6 of this Schedule 13D/A is hereby incorporated herein by reference.

 

On December 29, 2021 (the “First Closing Date”), pursuant to the SPA, filed as Exhibit A, SK purchased from the Issuer, 10,000,000 shares of the Issuer’s RCPS at a purchase price of $25.50 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $255,000,000. SK utilized its own funds and proceeds from financing facilities (as discussed in Item 6 herein) to purchase the RCPS. The RCPS was convertible at any time, at the option of SK, into such number of shares of Class A Common Stock determined by dividing the liquidation preference of the RCPS, which was equal to the original purchase price of $25.50 per share multiplied by the number of RCPS to be converted, by the conversion price determined at the time of conversion. Each share of the RCPS was converted into 10,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock on December 9, 2022.

 

On August 10, 2022, SK delivered to the Issuer a notice to purchase in the future 13,491,701 shares of Class A Common Stock of the Issuer pursuant to the SPA. The closing of this purchase (the “Second Closing Date”) was expected to be the latter of the parties receiving clearance from the U.S. Department of Justice and the Federal Trade Commission of the purchase under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1974, as amended (which is October 7, 2022), and December 6, 2022, pursuant to the Side Letter, which is filed as Exhibit B. On December 6, 2022, SK and the Issuer entered into the Side Letter Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit C, pursuant to which SK and the Issuer mutually agreed to delay the Second Closing Date for the purchase of the 13,491,701 shares of Class A Common Stock of the Issuer until March 31, 2023, unless an earlier date is mutually agreed upon and assuming the satisfaction of applicable regulatory clearance. The Side Letter Amendment adds that the Issuer would not be required to have a registration statement declared effective or to file a prospectus supplement that registers the resale of the securities held by the Reporting Person until six months after the earlier of March 31, 2023 or a later closing date resulting from the satisfaction of applicable regulatory clearance not being obtained by March 31, 2023.

 

SK currently expects to purchase the shares of Class A Common Stock on the Second Closing Date through a special purpose entity formed in the U.S. (the “SPV”), as contemplated by the SPA and the Investor Agreement. At this time, SK is currently the sole owner of the SPV, but SK continues to consider all possibilities regarding the structure through which it will purchase such shares of Class A Common Stock, if any, and the ownership of the SPV, including whether additional third parties may become part-owners of the SPV with SK.

As of December 9, 2022, based on information reported by the Issuer in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, filed on November 3, 2022 and after giving effect to (a) SK’s ownership of Class A Common Stock including the conversion of the RCPS and (b) SK’s purchase of Class A Common Stock on the Second Closing Date, SK beneficially owns approximately (x) 11.6% of the outstanding Class A Common Stock of the Issuer and (y) 6.5% of the outstanding voting stock of the Issuer, including for purposes of this calculation the Issuer’s outstanding Class B Common Stock.

In addition to the SPA, the Reporting Person and the Issuer have entered into an Investor Agreement dated as of December 29, 2021 (the “Investor Agreement”) and other commercial agreements which have been summarized in Item 6 below.

 

In accordance with the terms of the SPA, filed as Exhibit A, SK has the right to purchase additional shares of Class A Common Stock of the Issuer on or prior to November 30, 2023 (the “Second Tranche Shares”).

Additionally, under the terms of the SPA, the Issuer is obligated to file a registration statement to register the resale of the securities issuable to SK and to use best efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement until all of such securities have been sold. The Side Letter Amendment adds that the Issuer would not be required to have a registration statement declared effective or to file a prospectus supplement that registers the resale of the securities held by the Reporting Person until six months after the earlier of March 31, 2023 or a later closing date resulting from the satisfaction of applicable regulatory clearance not being obtained by March 31, 2023.
