CURRENT REPORT ON FORM 8-K

 

Blink Charging Co. (the “Company”)

 

April 17, 2020

 

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On April 17, 2020, the Company entered into a Sales Agreement (“Sales Agreement”) with Roth Capital Partners, LLC (the “Agent”) to conduct an “at-the-market” equity offering program pursuant to which the Company may issue and sell from time to time shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share, having an aggregate offering price of up to $20,000,000 (the “Shares”) through the Agent, as the Company’s sales agent.

 

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Sales Agreement, the Agent will use its commercially reasonable efforts to sell the Shares from time to time, based upon the Company’s instructions. The Company has no obligation to sell any of the Shares, and may at any time suspend sales under the Sales Agreement or terminate the Sales Agreement in accordance with its terms. The Company has provided the Agent with customary indemnification rights, and the Agent will be entitled to an aggregate fixed commission of 3.0% of the gross proceeds from Shares sold.

 

Sales of the Shares under the Sales Agreement will be made in transactions that are deemed to be “at-the-market offerings” as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, including sales made by means of ordinary brokers’ transactions, including on the Nasdaq Capital Market, at market prices or as otherwise agreed to with the Agent.

 

The description of the Sales Agreement set forth herein does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text thereof, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated by reference herein.

 

A “shelf” registration statement on Form S-3 for the Shares was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), which became effective on September 16, 2019, and a prospectus supplement thereto was filed with the SEC on April 17, 2020. This Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the securities law of any such state or jurisdiction.
