Transactions with Toyota Motor Corporation
In May 2010, we entered into a stock purchase agreement with Toyota Motor Corporation, or Toyota, pursuant to which Toyota will purchase $50.0 million of our common stock in a private placement to close immediately subsequent to the closing of our proposed initial public offering, at a price per share equal to the initial public offering price. As required under our DOE Loan Facility, we would set aside 50% of the net proceeds from this private placement to fund a separate, dedicated account.
In May 2010, we entered into an agreement to purchase an existing automobile production facility located in Fremont, California from New United Motor Manufacturing, Inc., or NUMMI, which is a joint venture between Toyota and Motors Liquidation Company, the owner of selected assets of General Motors. The purchase price for the land and the facility, excluding whatever manufacturing equipment we may subsequently acquire from NUMMI, is approximately $42 million. .
